A POPULAR MISTAKE
Regarding Remedies For Dyspepsia
and Indigestion.

The national disease of Americans is
Indigestion or in its chronic form, dvs-
pepsia, and for the very reason that 1t
is 80 comm on many people neglect TAX
ing proper treatment for what they con-
slider trifiiDg stomach trouble, when as
a matter of fact, Indigestion lays the
foundation for many incurable diseases.
No person with vigorous, healthy
stom ach will fall victim to consum o.
ton. Many kidney diseases and heart
troubles date their beginning from poor
digestion; thin nervous peopl4 are real
ly so because their stomschs are ont OF
gear; weary, lsnguid, faded out women
owe their condition to imperfect indi.
gestion.
When nearly every person you meet t
is afflicted with weak digestion it is
not surprising that nearly every secret
patent medicine On the market claims to
be cure for dyspepsia, as well as a
score of other trouble, when in fact, as
DR.. Werthier says, there is but one
genuine dyspepsia cure which is perfect
ly safe and reliable, and moreover, this
remedy is not patent medicine, but II
is a scientific combination OF pure pep.
sin (tree from animal matter,) vegetable
essences, fruit salts and blsmnth. 1t is
sold under the name of Stuarps Dys-
pepsia Tablets. NO extraVagant claims
are made for them, but for md gestion
or any stomach trouble, Stusrps Dys'
pepsia Tablets are far ahead OF any
remedy yet discovered. They act or
the food eaten, no dieting is necessary
simply eat all the wholesome food you
want and these tablets win digest it. A
cure results, because ell the stomach
needs is a rest, which stuarPs DyspepsiG
Tablets give by d, ing the work Of diges

WANTED, AN ISLAND.
WHY UNCLE SAM WISHES TO BUY ONE
OF THE CARoLlNES.

He Needs II ns an intermediary Ca
BILE station In Establishing a Line
between Honolulu and MapiIs--The
Advantages of UaIan.
The acquisition of the Philippines
brings to Uncle Sam new responsible
ties and new needs. One of these needs
is for an American cable clear across
the Pacific. No argument is needed to
show that this is an urgent need. The
anxious suspense which our government
officials endured for several days after
Admiral Dewey destroyed Montijo's
stage that if we were to hold and con.
troll the Philippines there must be di-
rect cable communication between
Washington and Manila.
The laying Of cable from San Fran
cisco to Honolulu is practically assured,
but il is a much farther distance from
Honolulu to Manila, and the laying of
an ocean cable between the two points
is regarded az an impossibility unless a
relay cable station, a sort of half way
house, is established. So Uncle Sam
wants an island. He doesn't mind how
small it is IL it is only in the right
place. Thus it happens that in spite of
our recent territorial oonquests we are
obliged to buy at least one more island.
In order that the United States shall
have exclusive control Of the proposed
transpaofic cable, 1t is essential that all
the stations shall be established on
United States soil. An important factor
in the matter is the desirnbility of hav.
ing the proposed line connect with
Guam, an island of the Ladrono group,
seized by the United States during the
war. This island is considerable dis.
tanoe south of the line between Homo.
lulu and Manila and connection with it
will necessitate wide detour. In the
absence of known available territory in
a more direct route, however, it is diff
cult to see how this deviation can be
avoided.
Although Guam might easily be util-
lied as cable station between Honolulu
and Manila, it is said to be too far from
Honolulu to admit of the laying Of q
cable with any hope of success, this
practically multiplying the whole scheme
unless some place still nearer Honolulu
can be secured for the purpose.
Two other islands are under consid
Grafton. One is Midway island, owned

nus. Industries had 10 be developed allN
along the line. 1t Is different in China
The industries arc already there. They
have only to be stirred into activity.
China is not new, and load of freight
would be marketable almost anywhere 1t
happened to stop. 1t has producers, con.
sumers and opportunities in unlimited
abundance. Richthofen says that in time
many important industries will be trans
ferred to China He refers TO the Chinese
as slumberinR factors Of immense indus
trial production.
When IL comes to natural resources the
ooaltields Of Shansi alone, according to
Richthofen, will suffice at the present rate
Of consumption to supply the world for a
thousand years The province of Kansu
Is not far behind. No department of this
province appears to be without deposits,
and In some departments the supply 10
enormous. The coal formation extends
without interruption from eastern Shansi
to Iii, through 80 degrees of longitude,
and is also found near Iii and Yarkand.
Much of the coal Is anthracite, and the
bituminous variety is of high grade. The
| province of Shansi will take the palm
1
| by relatively greater proportion.
Extent Is not the only advantage pos.
sessed by the coalfields, the ease and
cheapness with which coal can be extract
ed being a remarked BILE feature. This re-
gion, however, labnrs under the disadvan.

wealth of Shansi.
The district OF Luiyang, from which the
famous coal of this name comes, forms
the most important mining center Of re.
gion that is broadly estimated as extend,
ing over 10000 square miles 1t is from
this source chiefly that the future coal
supply of central China must be drawn,
but 1t Is the extent of this vast field, in
addition to the commercial capacities of a
region so populous, that renders the open
ing Of Human TO foreign enterprise a mat
ter Of such Importance.
In many places the Chinese have work.
ed the coal for local supply for long time
under the primitive methods Of Chinese
surface mining. About 400 900 tons have
gone to HankOw, 430 miles away, each
year. The Luiyang and Yungling mines
can produce an unlimited supply at O
nominal expense If they are worked soien,
tilCally and the minN ownors will build
railroads to facilitate communication.

PROPOSED ROUTE OF CABLE LINE TO MANILA,
by this country, and the other is Ualsn,
or Strong island one of the Caroline
group, owned by Spain.
Midway island il pronounced by cable
experts as wholly unfit for the purpose.
1t is barren coral island, composed
only Of sand, without vegetation and
uninhabited There is nothing on it to
sustain life. To maintain a cable sta
tion there ship would be required TO
make regular trips with supplies for the
operators and attendants.
These objections are only minor ones,
however. Chief Of all is the natural
formation Of the island itself. Surround
ed by coral reefs, il has only one har-
Dor. The harbor is constantly beaten by
a high surf which is driven into it by
oeaseless western winds. With the con.
stant action Of the surf wearing against
the edged reefs the double lines Of cable
in and out Of the harbor would be fire..
quently destroyed.
Just as Midway island is undesirable
for cable station, so Ualan is desira,
BILE. II is about 2, ,245 knots from Homo
lyju and l,2l0 from Guam. Its fertility
has given it the name "Gem of the Pa.
oiiio. >" 1t has two accessible harbors,
one on the east side and another on the
west, with road connecting them
In laying cable across the Pacific
the route is from San Francisco to Hon
Ululu, thence to Guam, of the LGdronC
group, and from the latter to Manila
So far all is under the America flag
Honolulu, Guam and Manila being ours
From Guam the cable will run north
10 Yokohama, and in due time branoi
will extend to Australia, but the pres
ent question deals only with the line I,
Manila.
The difficulty comes in the stretch he
tween Honolulu and Guam. Here is
distance Of 3,34O knots. or the cable
at present in existence the longest is tn
one recently laid down from Brest
France, to Cape Cod It's length is 3, l8
knots.
1t is therefore apparent that Their
must be landing for the cable between
Honolulu and Guam, so as to shorter
the sections. This landing, to carry ou
the purpose of communication under ex
elusive American control, can be ON n,
other than territory owned by the Unit
cd States. This is why we must buy al

Denth and RIrth Time.

There are a great number of curious
superstitions as 10 the time of day when
a dying person is most likely to draw
his last breath, and the tide, moon and
the wind havz all been supposed to have
somt share in the matter. According to
The British Medical journal, Raseri,
who has analysed 25, 474 cases of death
and 36,515 Of birth, where the exact
time of day was noted, finds that the
maximum number Of deaths occur in
the early afternoon (2:07 p m. }, ana
the minimum in the last hours before
midnight, while the maximum number
of births occur in the early hours of the
morning, and the minimum in the
early hours of the afternoon.
AS regards the cause of this he points
out the hours of the maximum number
of deaths are precisely those when the
pulse rate and the temperature are at
their highest in health, and when there
is febrile exacerbation in illness.
