THE OHIO SENATE.
Elects The Hon. John E. Smiley as Its Clerk.
4 NATIONAL SPRING REMEDY.

y NA1IoN1Al1 SPRlNG REMEDY.
Inc distinguished member of the Ohio
senate. Hon. John L. Smiley, in writing
of pe-ru-na, gave it MS his opinion that
it is the greatest remedy of the age. In
saying this of course he is but reiteratng
what thousands of other people are say
ing, and the chief interest which attach
es to his statement is the authority which
his position gives to it. Such men would
not write such things except there was
considerable enthusiastic belief behind
it. He goes on to say that Pe-ru-na is
an excellent remedy for catarrh, especial
~ catarrhal diseases of the stomach. As
this happens to be a very prevalent dis
ease in the spring of the year, this re-
mark is especially timely. 1t is catarrh
of the stomach that produces the indiges-
ton of springtime, for which it is quite
common TO take some spring medicine.
Pe-ru-na does not temporarily relieve
these symptoms, but cures them by re-
moving the cause. Pe-rli-nl is not n
physic or nervine, or stimulant merely,
but is a natural invigorator of the whole
system. Mr.. Smiley goes ON further to
say that. as tonic, he believes Pe-ru-na
has no equal. His remark is entirely
true. Pe-ru-na is an idea spring tonic
and is rapl ~ becoming the most popular
medicine in the world for this purpose.

Catarrhal sufferers should remember
that Ely's Cream Balm is the only ca

secretiOns, but changes them to a limpid
and odorless condition, and finally to a
natural and healthy character.
The Balm can be found at any drug
store, or by sending 80 cents to Ely
Brothers, So Warren street, New York,

Cream Balm opens and cleanses the
nasal passages, allays inflammation,
thereby stopping pain in the head, heals
and protects the membrane and restores
the senses of taste and smell. The
Balm is applied directly into the nos

The Success sful Remedy for
NASAL CATAHRH

must be non-irritating, easy OF applica-
ton, and one that will by its own action
reach the inflamed and diseased sur
faces.
ELY'S CREAM BALM combines the
important requisites of quick action and
specific curative powers with perfect
safety to the patient. This agreeable
remedy has mastered catarrh as nothing
else has, and both physicians and pa
tients freely concede this fact. All drug
gsts cheerfully acknowledge that in it
the acme of Pharmaceutical skill has
been reached. The most distressing
symptoms quickly yield to it. In acute
cases the Balm imparts almost instant
relief.

THE PROBLEM SOLVED
THE NEW MEDICAL DISCOVERY TESTED
Results of the Test in Various Forms Of
Dyspepsia

Chronic indigestion or dyspepsia while
a very common trouble, has for some
time been looked upon by able physicians
as a serious thing, and that no time
should he lost in treating it properly at
the start. because recent researches nave
shown that the most serious. fatal ana
incurable diseases have their origin IN
simple dyspepsia or indigestion.
Diabetes is simply one form of lndi-
gestiOn, the sugar and starchy food not
being assimilated by the digestive or
gans. In Brights disease the albumen
is not properly assimilated.
While consumption and dyspepsia are
twin diseases, and it is beyond question
that dyspepsia makes a fertile soil for
the seeds of consumption.
But the trouble has been to find a rem
edy that could be depended upon to cure
dyspepsia. as it is VIGOROUSLY obstinate
and difficult to cure.
This has been the question which has
puzzled physicians and dyspeptics alike
until the question was solved three years
ago by the appearance of a new dys-
pepsia cure in the medical world known
as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, which
it was claimed was as a certain. relia-
Bile cure for every form of stomach trOu-
bic.
Physicians, however. would not acccpt
such statements without first giving the
new remedy many tests and carefully
observing results.
For three years the remedy has been
thoroughly tested in every section of the
country and with surprising and salts
factory results.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets can be
honestly claimed to be a specific, radl
cal lasting cure for indigestion in the
various forms of acid dyspepsia or soui
stomach. gas or wind on stomach, too
much bile. undue fulness as pressure
after eating and similar symptoms re-
sulting from disordered digestion.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets We're not
placed before the public until this three
years trial left no doubt as to their
value and they have recently been placed
in the trade and can be found on sale
at all druggists at the nominal price Of
30 cents per package.
No eXtravagant claims are made for
the remedy. 1t will not cure rheumatism,
pneumonia, typhoid fever nor anything
but just what it is claimed to cure and
that is every form of stomach trouble.
No dieting is necessary. good whole
some food and plenty of it and you may
rest assured that Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets will digest it.
Druggists claim for it that it is n
pleasure to recommend it to dyspeptics,
because it gives such universal satisfac-
ton.

A CLEVER TRICK.

1t certainly looks like it, but there is
really no trick about it. Anybody can
try it who has Lame Back and Weak
Kidneys, Malaria or nervous troubles.
We mean he can cure himself by taking

up the whole system, acts as a stimulant
to Liver and Kidneys, is blood purifier

Headache. Painting Spells, Sleepless-

table, mild laxative, and restores the
system to its natural vigor. Try Elec-

ment would be sufficient-but unframed
volunteers would need six months of in
struction before they would be really
ready to do duty at the front.
The authorized strength of the militia
of the entire country, including several
States where this strength is not limited
is 1S6.S4S, while the aggregate actual
strength is 1910, made up as follows:
Infantry. 100179: artillery, 6,055; cav
airy. 4.97S: special troops. 2,279: generals
and staff officers. S7S; non-commissioned
staff officers, 400. The total number
of men liable to military duty in the
country is 10,37S,11S. The State ap-
preparations made for the maintenance
of the militia in 1897 amounted to s.
723.5G4.
The North Carolina militia fund is
very meagre. and should there he war
and should the President call unon this
State to furnish troops, it is more than
probable that we would have to have an
extra session of the General Assembly
in order to meet the demands of the
situation. OF course the government
would reimburse the State for it's ex-
penditure.
Fort Caswell now has three of the
finest eight-inch disappearing guns on
the Atlantic coast to operate. and will
soon have the fourth. A large quanti-
ty of dynamite, projectiles and other
war munitions have been sent to Fort
Caswell in the past few days. The fort
is to be connected with Wilmington by
telephone. Additional hands have been
put to work ON the emplacement for
the ten-inch disappearing gun, and ii
will be rushed to completion as early as
possible The electric light plant is
working successfully. and over hun
dred hands are still working day and
night. The work is lighted by electricity
at night. A signal class has been or
ganized among the garrison at the fort.
to learn telegraphing and signaling with
