NEW MEDICAL DISCOVERY.
A Positive Cure for Dyspepsia.


 This may read as though we were putting it little strong because it is generally thought by the majority of people that Dyspepsia in it's chronic form is incurable, or practically so. But We have long since shown that Dyspepsia is curable, nor is it such a difficult matter as it first appears.
 The trouble with Dyspeptics is that they are continually dieting, starving themselves, or going to opposite ex- tremes or else deluging the already overburdened stomach with "bitters. , after dinner pills" etc, which invaria- bly, increase the difficulty even if in some cases they do give a slight tenn porary relief. Such treatment of the stomach simply makes matters worse What the stomach wants is a rest Now how can the stomach become rested, recuperated and at the same time the body nourished and sustained '?
 This is the great secret and this is also the secret of the uniform success of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. This is comparatively new remedy, but it's success and popularity leave no doubt as to its merits.
 The tablets will digest the food any way, regardless of condition of stom- ach.
 AhC SOilCiCl HUH OySpepSld, accord ing to directions, is to eat an abund- ance of good, wholesome food and use the tablets before and after each meal and the result will be that the food will be digested no matter how bad your dyspepsia may be, because as be- fore stated, the tablets will digest the food even if the stomach is wholly inactive. To illustrate our meaning plainly. if you take 1900 grains of meat. eggs or ordinary food and Dlace if ir, a temperature of 9S degrees, and put with 1t one of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets 1t will digest the meat or eggs almost as perfectly as If the meat was en- closed within the stomach.
 The stomach may be ever so weak yet these tablets will perform the work of digestion and the body and brain will be properly nourished and at the same time a radical lasting cure of dyspepsia will be made, because the much abused stomach will be given, to some extent, a much needed rest. Your druggist will tell you that of the many remedies advertised to cure dyspepsia none of them has given so complete and general satisfaction as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets and not least in i'm. portance in these hard times Is the fact that they are also the cheapest and give the most good for the least money.

GREAT INTEREST TAKEN
 BY THE ENGLISH.
But the Press of London Is Begin ming to Follow the l. ad of
 German Cousins.


 German Cousins.
 LONDON, April 23.-The interest taken by the public at large in the war between the United States and Spain could hardly be exceeded if Great Brit ain herself were engaged in it. No other topic is discussed, though hourly editions of the newspapers are eagerly bought, and the widest stories are rife. On the delivery carts or some of the newspapers are displayed the Stars and Stripes and the Union Jack, side by side.
 The St. James Gazette, continuing In the same anti-American strain as for several days past, says: "The blockade will clearly not be effective. It is Of the kind which the United States prom ised it would not endeavor to enforce, and which no one is bound to respect" The paper foresees general interna- tional trouble on the subject and urges the British Government to send Vice Admiral Sir John Fisher, commanding the West Indian and North Atlantic squadron, on tour of inspection of the Cuban coast, to report to what degree he finds the blockade in existence.
 Both the St. James Gazette and Daily News continue to print letters, the general tendency of which Is to show that the British public does not sym pathize with the United States.
 The Daily News prints a letter say ing that that paper, as well as the Times, the Spectator and other papers of the same standing, are out of touch with the real public sentiment, fin re- gard to the present high handed pro- ceedings of the Americans
 The Saturday Review is teeming with insults to the United States, which, it says. is socially sordid to the last degree, its courts and civil institutions are corrupt and it has shown the world the depth of public depravity into which civilization is capable of de- scending." AS to the reason why the English ruling classes really "sympa- thiZe with Spain" the Saturday Review says: Tt is a question of manners. We are all disgusted with those raw, blatant Americans, who SCOUT Europe in search of their self-respect and can not conduct mere legal cause with decency."

The island Of Luzoa.

1t is doubtful whether the importance
of the island of Luzon in the great archi-
pelago of which it forms the chief north
ern member is yet appreciated by
US. The only other island approaching
it even in size is Mindanao, at the south,
and that is very far inferior in c%ultiva-
ton, wealth, the character of its popula-
ton, or any other elements of value.
Luzon is larger than all the other Philip
pine islands put together, and has a lar
population than all the rest. 1t is
$50 miles long, with a breadth of 1870
at its broadcast, and one of its rivers is
18o miles long. In area it equals New
York and New jersey combined. Its two
mountain chains, with peaks 1000 feet
high, are covered with mighty forests
while, the valleys and plains are wonder
fully luxuriant, as the crops of hemp, su'
gar, tobacco, rice, and other products
show. Gold, copper, iron and coal are
among its minerals. Manila, its capital
is one of the great marts of the Far East
counting, with its suburbs that manufac
ture many things. from cheroots to cord
age and embroideries, 10000 people. !,
is the metropolis of the Philippines, the
emporium of the archipelago's trade.
Manila, then, must be ours. Why
should there be, indeed, how could there
be, two sovereignties in the island? And
why should there be two sovereignties ir
the archipelago?-New York Sun.

Beck From the Klondike.

Bert Gibson and Frank Palmer return
ed yesterday from the Klondike. They
went out last spring with the Guptill
party. They come back to Fargo con-
vinced that the Yukon country is a good
place to stay away from. Bert had
enough of it long ago. He says the
country is crowded to death. Some Of
his party are on the Pelly river, while he
left Cup and Billy O'Neill on a scow at
the foot of Main street in Dawson. They
were determined to remain awhile and
get some of the good things there. Bert
and five companions came down the Yu-
kon in an open boat. The current was
not very swift and two were compelled
to row all the time in eight hour shifts.
They stopped at all the camps on the
way down and Bert found a good claim
but didn't stop to work it.-Forum.

Sampson and schley Both Did Their Duty.

~SSys
1t is unfortunate that an attempt has
been made to create a difference between
Admiral Sampson and Commodore
Schley over the destruction of the Span
ish fleet. These gallant officers, each In
his way, did the work which fate assigned
to him. No one can question'that Samp-
son, had not the duty of inspection called
him away on the morning which Admiral
Cervera selected for his disastrous sally,
would have commanded the American
feet with same results. 1t simply CHANGED
that immediate executive command at
that eliminating moment devolved on
his subordinate. But it has been
made clear that the disposition and ar.
rangement of the ships and all provisions
for alert sentry duty and for the work of
just such an emergency had already been
settled by the absent admiral. Commo-
dore Schley did all that was required
with an energy, dash andgood judgement
which could not have been surpassed. But
it must be remembered that everything
done was effected on the lines fixed by
the admiral's provision. Schley merely
won the more Snowy glory by the acct
dent of temporary command. 1t is not
such a case as that of Lord Nelson, who
actually planned the attack, arranged for
all the exigencies as we'll as led the
actual fighting at the battle of the Baltic
though Sir Hyde Parker flew the broad
pennant of command. In the American
example fully as much honor is due
Sampson as Schley and an attempt to
elevate the n at the expense of the
other seems almost malicious.-Miles

Lincoln A. Lang's Invention.

The Evening Telegram published at
Superior, Wis.,, in its issue of August 9th
gives a two-column article, accompanied
by drawings, on Lincoln A. Lang's new
invention. The telegram opens with the
following paragraph:
Lincoln A. Lang has lately made a
practical test of his new valve gear on
the tug of the American Steel Barge
Company and not only MI. Lang but the
officers of the company as we'll have
been more than pleased with the results.
In the test both methods of operating
the gear were tried, the old style and the
new one invented by Mr.. Lang, and it
was most satisfactorily demonstrated
that the new valve gear will make a saw
ing in fuel of over 20 per cent; this, how
ever, is not the onlylrecommendation the
gear possesses; it is the most easily op-
Grated and it is possible to reverse an
engine SO instantly that the change can
not be perceived.
In closing the article the Telegram
says:
An analysis of the system by those
skilled in the art will develop the fol-
lowing extraordinary qualities: 1, an
extremely rapid opening and closing of
ports at all gears, back or forward, the
motion being so prompt as to be COM
pleted in say 2 inches of piston travel
where the latter is "a inches. 2, Such
prompt action in opening and closing
gives long periods for entry and exhaust
Of steam and thus permits a less port
opening and, consequently, of less valve
travel, with consequent economy in valve
moving energy. 3, Such prompt action
avoids exhaust lead if desired, and
avoids back pressure and compression
evils. 4, The lead is constant and what
is of the highest importance, this con-
stancy of lead is secured without any sac
rifce of port opening. $, A short cut off
will secure within any practical desires
it being practicable to cut off at any
point within two inches of each end OF
the stroke in the case Of an engine hav,
ing a "a inch stroke, and without any
concomitant sacrifice In distribution. So
far as known these results have not
heretofore been attained in link motion
valve gears.
