LETTER is MAKING MILLIONS.


Wheat jumped in Chicago yesterday
from $3.50 10 $50 per bushei. rise of ~

leap in the price Of the staple. and many
a fortune was lost. In Eastern Washing

this state. In 1851 during temporary
swirl wheat went to IS cents bushel, and
until now that price has stood az rec

strength OF the wheat market Is the war.
Secondary factors are the drouth in Cali

4 TRAVELLING MAN


Mr.. r. ". Wincherdon, commercial
traveller from Birmingham. whose ousi-
ness keeps him almost constantly on the
road relates in the Sunday News the dan
gers to health resulting from constant
change OF residence and the way ne over
came the usual injurious effects.
He says: One thing people travelling
cannot very well avoid is the constant
change in water and food; the stomach
never has an opportunity 10 become accus-
toned 10 anything. and IN few years or
much sooner the average travelling man
becomes a hose.sss dyspeptic.
For several years suffered more or less
from indigestion. sour stomachs. head
aches. distas;e for food. often no appetite.
gas on the stomach, and the usual un-
pleasant effects Of smperfect digestion.
Nearly every travelling man has his ia
vorise remedy for different troubles. and
tried all of them with Indifferent results.
Finally on the train between Pittshurg and
Philadelphia one day. I overheard con-
versation between two ladies. one OF
whom had suffered severely from indiges-
ton and stated she had been completely
cured by a remedy which she
called Stuari's Dyspepsia tablets; 1
remembered the conversation because
1t directly interested me: and at
the next town l inquired At the
first drug store and bought a package for

pleasant tasting tablets, not a secre. pat
ent medicine. but composed of vegetable
essences, pure pepsin. fruit salts. and
Golden Seal; being in tablet form they
never lose their good qualities like liquid
medicine would, but are always fresh and
ready for use.

and whenever I see any symptoms Of IN
digestion ! take one, also one after each
meal. and for year and half have not
lost a day by reason of poor health and
can eat anything and relish what I eat;
my digestion is absolutely perfect as far
as I can judge from my feelings and al
though there may be other stomach medi-
eines just as good as Stuart's Dyspepsia

Certainly for people who travel they are
far ahead of any liquid medicine, as they
are so convenient: they can be carried in
the pocket and used whenever needed.

at so cents. and believe anyone who will
try them will agree with me, that for in
digestion and stomach trouble Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets are unequaled.

Time to Organize.
This is the time to organize a naval re-
serve in this state said Judge Bailinger,
when called upon. "The war spirit OF the
people is aroused. have hardly been able
to attend to business in trying to read the
war bulletins. Considering tho great inn
portance of the maritime interests OF Pu-
get sound, we should have a strong and
formidable naval reserve. 1t is unfortun-
ate that the legislature has not placed
these energetic patriots in a position TO
tender their services TO the government.
The people of the state Of Washington are
ready TO show their colors. Some time
since the country had fallen into state of
self-satisfaction, from which 1t was rous-
ed by the call of war. 1t was remarked
in the senate some years ago that it was
useless to build ships of war since In ten
years they would be as obsolete as a Ro-
man galley. But the very act OF prepara-
ton is in itself a menace and u stronghold
and war with Spain might never have oc-
cured had she thought us ready for
prolonged contest"
On motion of John T. Condor, Of the FL
lott Bay Yacht Club. the committee or
enrolment was appointed by Chairman
Gorham, as stated. Ii was decided that
the rolls should be completed IL possible,
by next Tuesday. and that a genera, meet
ing should be held next Thursday. There
are already more than fifty names on rolls
now in the hands of Officers Of the Ma

IN MRnoRIAn.

Sacred to the memory OF Charles
j. Marstella, son Of Mr. ], M. Mar
stella, who departed this lite on the
18th day ofApril, 1893, aged p years.
In the sudden demise Of this inter
esting young man we are fofcibly re-
minded that death mostly culls the
choicest flowers. His capacity is un.
satisfied even with the dearest objects
Of our affection. But few days be-
fore his death, Charlie was among us
in health and with as bright a pros
pect as auy of us for a long life, but
now, where is he? His body inhabits
the narrow tenement Of clay, to be-
come the food OF worms, and the soul
has gone to the God who gave it, I'm
doubtedly to be forever in endless
Joy. What fond eudearments were
severed il his death Parent bereft
of a child brother and sisters Of a be-
loved brother, and companions of one
who partook with them Of earthly
happiness. But it is still a consola-
ton to those who mourn his early
departure that death found him not
altogether unprepared
Charlie, Farewell On earth we
shall see thy face no more. Thou
hast taken an early departure from
our midst to the spirit land, but we
shall all soon follow thee. Days
and months and even years will soon
roll round and bring us to the rest
above, and oh, then, if we are
Christ's, what a meeting will we
have in heaven. There we shall
meet to part no more. Farewell,
then, until the morn of resurrection,
when the trumpet shall sound to
wake the nations dead, we shall look
for thee at judgment no more. We
shall expect to see thee at the right
hand of the judge This is the prayer
OF all thy friends. f. NJ
