Dyspepsia Tablets, digest the food in
stead of making the worn out stomach
do all the work, give it much needed
rest, and a cure of dyspepsia is the
natural result.
You get nourishment and rest at the
same time because these tablets will
thoroughly digest all wholesome food
taken into the stomach whether the
stomach works or not A cure is cer-
tain to result because the digestive or
gans are given a chance to rest and
recover their natural vigor and tone.
The tablets are then no longer re-
quired.

remedy acts on different people and
how quickly and effectually 1t cures

In the lower house of Congress Thursday. when the civil service law was up for discussion, MT. GrosvenOr of Ohio, took the floor with al elaborate speech in opposition tC the law. MT Grosven)r disclaimec the leadership of the anti-ciyll ser vics reform forces and any purpose to speak for any officer of the gov ernment. MT GrosyenOr proceeded to pay his respects 10 the nationa civil service reform league. and tC cast a~peIsions on Carl Schurz a: president. His excor.ation of the latter was the most scathing that aas been heard on the floor of the House for months.
 The friends of good government should never let up in their fight on this law until It is either repealed or modified so that the government can be run on the lines of sound business principles. So that the voice of the people, at an election, may mean just what they say by their votes. Ina, sIepUb!ican gov .rument may exist in fact as we'll as .n name, by the eradication of every ge,tigs Of monarch.cal principles Of fife tenure of office hclding.

Gestures and Traits,

Dr Norman Moore, whose enormous experience in the post mortem room gives weight to his words, expressed iE a recent address the general desire Ci pathologists to find some law of correla- ton between defects of different parts of the body, but he had abandoned the hope, for 1t was only exceptionally that abnOrmalities of one organ were assOci- ated with those of others Movements of an unusual character, odd gestures or antics may certainly be accompanied by mental qualities of very high order -an example of which may be noted in Dr. Johnson. So. again, large ears aIe not necessary signs of mental defect, for they may be observed in individuals Of great mental capacity, and the repeated series of movements on which such stress has been laid should be regarded merely as habits. ts.-LOndon Letter ill New York Medical Record.

OUR MOST IMPORTANT NEED


 The present city council is deserv- ing of great credit for the progres- sive spirit they have manifested ! during the past year. Considerable ! improvements have been made in various directions and it has all ] been accomplished without raise in either the rate of taxation or in a raise in the valuation Of property aud the council Is certainly to be commented for the careful and painstaking business methods used 1 to accomplish this.
 Their next move in the way Of improvements Is the proposed grad . jug of Cortez and Gur.ey streets. Of course whether this will be done or not will remain with the property holders along the two streets, as il cannot be done without the consent two-ibirds of them.
 While not being opposed to this or to any other public improvement that will tend 10 beneGt the town and make 1t more attractive a-d more beautiful. it seems that the ] first thing 10 secure Is a water and l sewerage system. Ii streets are graded and it should afterwards be decided to put in a system of sewer age and add to our present water system all the work would have to l be done over again and the streets
 torn up for the latterimprovements.
 Let united effort be had in securing
 water and sewerage and then let other improvements follow in their
 natural order.

"The Courier has never yet sent a man out on the road to solicit or beg subscriptions and to harass people. ."-COurier.
 It Is only couple of years or SO ago, when one of the proprieJors of the aforesaid paper made a tour cf several mining camps soliciting bus mess for bis paper. Solicitors are today employed in nearly every line of business, and the up to date busi- ness man realizes that he has to hustle in order to meet competition and keep up with the procession. Every metropolitan paper in the country has its corps of solicitors and correspondents m the field. and the small fry are apt tO be swallowed up if they do not at least make an effort to keep abreast of the times. The JOURNAL-MINER takes pleasure Tn announcing that it has a man on the road, whose spec al business it is to call the att antion of the busy people of this county to the superior merits of the JOURNAL MINER as a local newspaper, and toexhibit spec linens of job work turned out by the office, and to respectfully solicit all patronage that ha can secure. In doing this he also takes notes of the progress being made in the various sections visited, and imparts it to the world through the columns of the paper.
 The JOURNAL-MI is a live, up to date paper, and it is proud of it, and the business will be conducted on business lines, any little snarling or insinuating to the contrary, not withstanding.
 In the meantime, should the rep resentative of the paper, who is lon the road" overlook any one, their patronage, either in the way of sub- scriptlon, job work or advertising, will be cheerfully received at this office. We are in business for busi- ness and the more the better.
