THE ISLAND CITY BECOMES CITY OF GOOD HEALTH

three bottles my hands are as steady as any mans, and I am glad to be able to in- form the public of this wondertul cure
 DAVE w. SCREAM,
 Isaacs 6 Schram, Cloth1ers. Sam Lazarus, of Lazarus & Enrich, the Misfit Clothing Parlors, and his assistant manager, Lew Simon, both confessed to the "Harter habit" and subscribe their names to letters in praise of Dr. Harter s Iron Tonic, as herewith given:
 Galveston, Tex, Feb 14, 1S9S Publisher News:
 Dear Sir-I find that Dr. Harter's Iron Tonic is a money maker for the man who takes it. as 1t keeps him in good health so he can attend to business right. l am on my fourth bottle, and don't know when I will stop. SAM LAZARUS,
 Of Lazarus & Enrich,
 Misft Clothing Parlors
 Galveston, Tex, Feb. 14, 1S9S Galveston Daily News:
 Gentlemen-Suffering severely from fn- somnia, resulting from a generally run down system, I tried bottle of Dr. liar ter's Iron Tonic, though am free to con fess that, having tried so many so-called remedies, I was rather skeptical as to the result, and hence take pleasure in stat ing in writing the excellent cure effected by the Tonic,' as I am now able to sleep soundly without any trouble.
 LEW SIMON,
 Asst. Mgr. Misfit Clothing Parlors. Fred Weis, manager of the Grande Opera House, was quite busily engaged with the duties of his position when spoken to about the ''Iarter habit" but he took time to write a few words right to the point, which we print:
 Galveston, Tex, Feb. IA, 1898. Editor Galveston News:
 Dear Sir-Bad blood in my system has been the source of endless annoyance to me for over four years l have spent hun dreds of dollars in doctors fees, and made several trips to well known springs in the vain hope of being cured, all of which ex- pense might have been saved by an earlier use of Dr. Harters Iron Tonic, for after consuming but two bottles my blood began to become purer, and my complexion is daily improving.
 FRED G. WEES,
 Manager Grand Opera House. It is very doubtful if any of the above representative citizens of Galveston ever before wrote a testimonial for any medicine in the world. It is equally doubtful if there is any other medicine in the world that any one of the above people would publicly recommend. It is an indorsement without parallel in the history of the Island City, Thousands of other letters could have been had for the asking, but these few are enough. It is plainly apparent that the "Harter habit'' has a good hold of this city, and it bids fair to remain, as long as good health and happiness attend it.

From the Galveston CTex) Daily News.
 The coming to Galveston of pr. Har- ter's representatives will long be remem- bered. Because his Iron Tonic was given away free for few days we each carried a bottle home, and most of us took the contents in a spirit of jocularity. What began as joke has become, with most of us, habit-the "Harter habit,' we call it.
 When a man finds he can eat more, sleep better, think clearer, exercise harder and feel in better spirits all the time, at a cost of dollar a month or so for bottle of Dr. Harters Iron Tonic he's chump if he don't acquire and stick to the 'Harter habit"
 Being a little curious to know how our representative Galveston citizens had well comed the Iron Tonic in their homes, we sent our reporter about town to interview a number of leading merchants on the sub ject.
 MT M C. Michael, the "Model Clothier," at 2213 and 2215 Market street, said he had obtained the greatest relief from severe stomach trouble by it's use, and wrote out the following for publication over his own signature:

 Jolly John Bolton, the well known pro- prietor of the "Nine Sons" livery, on Postof1ce street, evidently expects great things of Dr. Harter's Iron Tonic, judg- ing from the subjoined letter.
 Galveston, Tex. Feb. 14, 1898. Dear Sir-I was chronic sufferer from headaches until at times life really seemed a burden to me. My business is one that requires the closest attention, and any one afflicted as I was naturally could not devote his whole energies to his affairs;

 J. H. BOLTON,
 Proprietor the Mine Sons' Liveries. Reaching M. Silberman & Bros on Twenty-second street, MT. L. Silberman was found preparing to depart a busi- ness trip to the east, which he said he had postponed several weeks until he could get himself into good shape for travelling by using Dr. Harter's Iron Tonic. He put the facts on paper for our readers:
 Galveston. Tex, Feb. IA, 1898. Editor Galveston News:
 Dear Sir-I am just about to leave the city on a business trip which I have de- ferred for some time on account of severe kidney trouble Thanks to pr: Harter's Iron Tonic, which I have taken three weeks, I am now able to make the trip, for since using 1t as directed my kid neys have gained their normal strength

government had purposely discredted.
 The bill was approved by the president and became law on February 25 1862.
 Judge Kelly, of Pennsylvania, in speech at Philadelphia years afterward, January 15, 1876, referring to the passage of this act, said: q remember the grand old com moner CThaddeus Stevens) with his hat in his hand and his cane under his arm when he returned to the house after the final conference, and shedding tears over the result. "Yes," said he, i've have had to yield. The senate was stubborn. We did not yield until we saw that the country must be lost or the banks be gratified, and we have sought to save the country in spite of the cupidty of its wealthier citizens.'
 Although the money power did not suc- ceed in forcing the sale of government bonds every six months, as was attempted, in order that bonds could be bought at great discount, the same purpose was &C., complished by thus depreciat ting the value of the currency with which these bonds were purchasable at part. The treasury notes issued under this and other similar acts of congress, deprecIated in value for the simple reason that they were not re- ceivable in payment of import duties. The demand notes, of which S60, 900 600 were is- sued, as described in the first installment of this article were receivable for duties on imports, and had full legal tender quali- ties, and they never did depreciate, but re- mained at par with gold, even when gold had reached a premium of 1855 per cent. over other paper issues of the govern ment

A TRAVELLING MAN
Gives Some Valuable Hints Regarding the Care of the Health While Travelling.


 Care of the Health While Travelling.
 MT. R. W. winchesdon, a commercial traveller from Birmingham, whose business keeps him almost constantly on the road. relates in the Sunday News the dangers to health resulting from constant change of residence and the way be overcome 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 to become accus- toned to anything and in a few years or much sooner the average travelling man be- comes hopeless dySpeptic.
 For several years I suffered more or less from indigestion, sour stomachs. headaches, distaste for food, often no appetite, gas on the stomach and the usual unpleasant effects of imperfect digestion.
 Nearly every travelling man has his favor ite remedy for different troubles and I tried all of them with indifferent results. Finally on the train between Pittsburg and Phila- delphia one day, overheard a conversation between two ladies, one of whom had suf- fered severely from indigestion and stated she had been completely cured by remedy which she called Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab let's; I remembered the conversation be- cause it directly interested me; and at the next town inquired at the first drug store and bought a package for fifty cents, and from that day to this I have never been without them. They are pleasant tasting tablets not a secret patent medicine but composed of vegetable essences, pure pep sin, fruit salts and Golden Seal; being in tablet form they never lose their good quail ities like liquid medicine would, but are always fresh and ready for use
 I carry box in my pocket continually, and whenever see any symptoms of indi- gestion I 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- cines just as good as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, do not know what they are. Ger tainly 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.
 I believe they are sold by all druggists at 50 cents, and believe anyone who will try them will agree with me, that for indiges- ton and stomach trouble Stuart's Dyspep- sia Tablets are uneQualed-
