INTENSE SUFFERING
From Dyspepsia and Stomach
Trouble.
INSTANTLY RELIEVED AND PERMA-
NENrLY CURED.
New Discovery. But Not a Patent Ned
icine.


New Discovery. But Not Patent Med
icine.
DIR. Redwell relates an interesting
account Of what he considers a re-
markable cure of acute stomach
trouble and chronic dyspepsia by the
use OF the new discovery, Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets.
lie says: The patient was a man
who had suffered to my knowledge for
years with dyspepsia. Everything he
ate seemed to sour and create acid and
gases IN the stomach; he had pains
like rheumatism in the back, shoulder
blades and limbs, fullness and distress
after eating, poor appetite and loss of
flesh; his heart became affected, caus-
ing palpitation and sleeplessness at
night
| gave him powerful nerve tonics
and blood remedies, but to no purpose.
AS an experiment / finally bought a
fifty cent package of Stuart's Dyspep-
STA Tablets at a drug store and gave
them to him. Almost imemdiate relief
was given and after he had used four
boxes he was to all appearances fully
cured.
There was no more acidity or sour
watery risings, no bloating after meals,
the appetite was vigorous and he has
gained between 10 and II pounds in
weight of solid, healthy flesh.
Although Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
are advertised and sold in drug stores
yet / consider them most valuable
addition to any physicians line OF
remedies, as they are perfectly harm
less and can be given to children or
invalids or in any condition of the
stomach with perfect safety, being
harmless and containing nothing but
vegetable and fruit essences, pure pep
sin and Golden Seal.
Without any question they are the
safest, most effective cure for indiges-
ton, biliousness, constipation and all
arrangements Of the stomach slight
or severe.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are sold
by druggists everywhere at fifty cents
for full sized packages.

ford no protection from the rays of

vious advantage namely, that they
can be held in front of the face while
meeting the wind or rain, and at the
same time the user will be able to see
that he does not run into an unoffend-

70 ABOLISH PASSPORTS
BILL FOR THAT PURPOSE BEING
PREPARED.
Representative Richards VIII Take
the Lead in the Matter-Thinks the
System Outgrown and Antiquated.

An effort will be made at this ses-
sion of the Legislature to abolish the
passport system. Representative
Richards is preparing a bill for that
purpose now. The Collector General
of Customs in his annual report rec
ommends that the system be abolish
ed. as being a source of annoyance,
without adequate compensating adj
vantages.
Representative Richards in prepar-
ing his bill has collected all the leg
islation on the subject since the pas
sage of the original act in 1868. His
research has been rewarded by the
discovery of number of forgotten,
but unrepealed, enactments, on the
subject. some of which at the present
time have a curious interest. One of
these is a law prohibiting any woman
from landing at Honolulu from any
of the other Islands without "A pass
port and prohibiting the issuance of
passports 10 ItllluItS uIlutI - years.
except upon the written request of
their parents or guardians.
Representative Richards says he
finds in the actual operation of the
passport law that it is not of much
benefit to the mercantile community.
for whose benefit it was adopted, but
is taken advantage of by persons who
buy up accounts for the sole purpose
of collecting them in this way, in mat
ny cases accounts which there is nc
intention of evading.
The system he thinks is antiquated
and however beneficial under the con.
ditions which existed when it was
adopted. has been entirely outgrown
in the present development of the
Republic.
