SIMPLICITY ITSELF.
A SIMPLE, HARMLESS REMEDY.
Yet II Cures the Worst Cases OF Dys-
pepsia and Indigestion.

DIR. Jennison, who has made a life
study of stomach troubles, says: All
forms of indigestion really amount to
the same thing, that is. failure to COM
pletely digest the food eaten; no matter
whether the trouble is acid dyspepsia
or sour stomach. belching of wind, ner-
vous dyspepsia or loss of flesh or appe-
tite; a person will not have any OF
them IL the stomach can be induced by
any natural, harmless way to thor
oughly digest what is eaten, and this
can he done by a simple remedy which
l have tested In hundreds of aggra-
waited cases with complete success. The
remedy Is a combination of fruit and
vegetable essences, pure aseptic pepsin
and golden seal put up in the form of
pleasant tablets and sold by druggists
under the name of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets. One or two of these tablets
should be taken after meals and al
lowed to dissolve in the mouth and
mingling with the food in the stomach,
digests it completely before it. has time
to ferment, decay and sour.
On actual experiment one grain of
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will digest
three thousand grains of meat, eggs
and similar wholesome foods.
1t is safe to- say If this wholesome
remedy was better known by people
generally, it would be national bless
ing, as we are nation of dyspeptics
and nine-tenths of all diseases owe
their origin to imperfect digestion and
nutrition.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are not a
secret patent medicine, but fifty cent
package will do more real good for a
weak stomach that ilfty dollars worth
of patent medicines and a person has
the satisfaction of knowing Just what
he is putting into hisstomach, which
he does not know, when widely adver-
tised patent medicines are used.
All druggists sell Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets, full sized packages, so cts.

cent. of the cabin passengers on
rst-class twin screw are ill during
even the toughest winter voyage.
Bilge keel and the great length of the
new liners lessen, to a large degree,
their tendency TO roll and pitch. A
passenger on a short, slow-going ship
of fifteen years ago, the surgeon said
needed pretty good stomach to stand
the mighty shaking up he was sure to
get in winter storm.
There was no infallible remedy for
seasickness, he said. 1t could be re-
lieved, and even prevented. in persons
who were not of a squeamish disposi-
tion. Persons of different temperament
required different treatment. What
was good for a bilious patient might
not be good for one who was not bill
ious. Acid and effervescent drinks
were remedial, and a bandage on the
abdomen also helped. But, the sur
geon finally said the time was near
when there would be no seasickness.
when the S0O-foot ship, with lots of
beam and deep bilge keels, would make
voyaging in the most tumultuous
weather almost as comfortable as stay
ing on shore in your parlor.

APPROPRIATIONS, $40, $50.
Ordinance Passes First Reading.
Other Measures for the Citv's Need.

All the members OF select council
were present at last nights meeting.
After ordering the payment of a num-
ber of bills and disposing of other min
or matters the body turned its atten-
tion to measures for the city's veal.

ing the city treasurer to pay to the
treasurer of the Firemen's Relief ass
sociation, annually, a certain tax to be
received from the commonwealth an

South Main street and Eighth avenue

light at Drumm property on Belmont
street, and one at corner of River

second and final reading.
The ordinance providing for four ad-
ditlonal fire hydrants-one at Patrick
McAndrew property on Cottage street,
one at Charles Burke property, one be-
tween James Campbell's and John Nc
Cabe's on Canaan street, and one on

who is anxious to have one located on
Gordon avenue.
The ordinance providing for sewer
on Spring street between Lincoln and
Ninth avenues and on Seventh avenue
between Spring and Washington

NIT building operations.

ever, for printing and advertising for
Library association and board OF
health, which will help it out in this
respect.

$50, about $1,000 less than last years.

night to get through with the appro.
priation ordinance. No other business
can be taken up.

THAT HYnROPHOBIA CASE.

Emilio Mancuso. the little Italian
boy who, as stated in yesterdays Trib-
une, suffered hydrophobia, died at
o'clock in the morning. The patient
suffered terribly in his dying hours.
There is no. doubt in the minds OF
those who saw the child that this was
a genuine case of hydrophobia result
ing from the bite which the lad re-
ceived a few weeks ago. 1t is so far
as known the only local case of the
awful malady that has come to the at
tention of our physicians.
The funeral was held yesterday af-
ternoon, interment being made in st.
Rose cemetery.

ATHLETES ORGANIZE.

A number of young men, notably
those connected with last years In
dian football team are agitating the
formation of an athletic association.
A meeting was held and organization
effected by the election of Albert IL.
Crane as president. Other officers will
be elected later. Alumni park will
probably be secured as a training field
and an interest will be taken in all
amateur athletic sports. On the MEM
bership list are represented bicycle
riders, sprinters and others who won
local distinction at last years field day
sports.

AS they near the springtime en-
terprising business men invariably
take extra care to publish broad
cast their bargain news. Our col
umns already reflect this fact, but
a word of suggestion on the sub
ject may not be amiss.
(). AS to the quantity of circu-
lation. The Tribune believes that
it has as large a regularly delivered
and paid for circulation as any of
its contemporaries. We might go
further than this and yet not go be-
yond the truth. We will not exag-
gerate. Bluff and brag on this
point will not alter the facts. The
only way for the advertiser to sat-
isfy himself is to advertise intelli-
gently in the different papers and
thus find out which one brings him
in the most business. We court
this test.
(2). AS to the quality of circu-
lation. Papers sold on the street
are of small value to advertisers
since they are rarely taken into the
homes; penny papers are good me-
diums for certain lines of trade;
but the paper that is taken regu-
larly by bright, well-educated and
middle class families and scanned
throughout the day by each MEM
Der of the family in turn; the clean
paper, the paper that doesn't print
sensational news nor pollute it's
columns with scandal-this is the
paper in which advertisers reap
golden results. 1t reaches the kind
of buyers whose trade is worth hav-
ing, and they have confidence in
what they see in its columns. The
Tribune is admittedly the best
paper in the city and it follows
naturally that it has the best circu-
lation.
(3). AS to time of circulation.
The dispute relative to the re-
spective merits of a morning and
an afternoon circulationis incessant.
Expert opinion differs. There are
advantages and disadvantages on
either side. The morning circula-
ton undoubtedly reaches wider
area, because it has more time in
which to be distributed by trains.
1t also is more likely to be read
with care by the women, since they
get the paper in the morning and
have all day for it. No advertiser
can afford to ignore morning cir
culation. On the other hand, after
noon circulation is valuable, par
ticularly among workingmen, who
read the evening papers after sup
per, while they rest from the days
toll. The intelligent advertiser will
want to be represented in at least
one morning and one evening
paper, because he cannot afford to
miss either class of readers. We
leave Our evening contemporaries
to settle between them which is the
better medium, and we advise the
advertisers of Scranton to test for
themselves the two morning
papers, not by what those papers
claim, but by the actual results they
can produce. This is the basis of
The Tribune's bid for patronage.

THE TAX LEVY.
stantial one.

= ELIMINATING from the subject the political
clap-trap and buncombe with which it has
- been invested by the demagogues and their
organs there can be no doubt that strong public
demand exists for low municipal tax rate this year
This demand cannot very well be ignored by the
Board of Supervisors, and that body should not ig-
more it. Doubtless it would please Mayor Phelan
and the Examiner to have tax levy of So on the
$Ioo valuation Such would make no end of
politics" for them and the demagogues who follow
the leadership But the Supervisors should not con-
slider anybodys interest in this matter that of the
tax-paying people.
The year 1893 has not been a good one for Cali
fornia, and consequently business is not prosperous
in San Francisco. The wheat crop failure and the
fruit crop shy. This is time to lay the heavy
hand OF the tax gatherer upon the people They
able to stand levy of one million additional dol
lars, whether the money is necessary for public inn
provements or required to carry an extravagant
government.
Who is to spend the money is nrnaterial We shall
have new Board of Supervisors next year which, if
Republican and not chosen by Mayor Phelan and the
Third-street Booder, will be an Improvement upon
the present one. But this need not be considered
either tax levy than that of last year should
not be imposed, because the people cannot stand it.
True there are many necessary public improve
ments pressing for attention. but they should all be
postponed to another day The new County Hospital
10 cost $500, ooo the police and fire alarm boxes
to cost S35ooo the removal of the fire alarm station
on BRENNAN place. to cost $4,000 the new police
station at Seventeenth and Folsom streets to cost
$4,000; the Californiastreet park, to cost $75ooo
the Mission Zoo job, to cost half million; and the
various other schemes of public Identification and
| improvement can and must wait. The only thing to
be done this year is to get along cheaply posi-
BILE 1t is the duty of the Supervisors to make up the
deficits and leave their successors sufficient sum to
carry on the government until July I, 1890 No more
money than this should be raised
An additional reason for adopting this course
consists in the fact that no money can be
expended inteligenty upon permanent public
improvements under the present legal system
The new charter may not provide a better
one, but it promises to do so and it will be well
to await the fulhllnent of the promise If the ac-
ceped streets to be repaved and the system
reconstructed the work ought be conducted under
the supervision of engineers and competent me
chanics The Street Department is an excellent ma
chine for disbursing money but ineffective for pro-
ducng results
