LETS.
They Cure stomach Troubles and In
digestion Anyway, Whether You
Have Faith In Them or Not.

Mere faith will not digest your food for
YOU will not give you an appetite, Will
not increase your flesh and strengthen
your nerves and heart, but Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets will do these things, be-
cause they are composed Of the elements
of digestion, they contain the juices,
acids and peptones necessary to the d.
gestion and assimilation of all wholesome
food.
stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will digest
food if placed in jar or bottle in water
heated to IS degrees, and they will do it
much more effectively when taken into
the stomach after meals, whether you
have faith that they win or not
They invigorate the stomach, make
pure blood and strong nerves, in the only
way that nature can do it. and that is
from plenty of wholesome food well di-
gested. 1t is not what we eat, but what
we digest that does us good.

One thing that war always does is
to bring merit speedily to the front.
The junior lieutenant is likely any day
to do stroke of work that will cause
his photograph to crowd his COM
manding generals out of the illustra-
ted papers. Every day develops some
new instance of daring and gallantry
in a subordinate officer. And these are
the men now destined to quick pro-
motion. As every French private
soldier in the old days was said to
carry the baton of a Marshal of France
in his knapsack, every man in army
or navy, no matter how humble, has
the chance to rise to any preferment
the service affords by distinguishing
himself sufficiently.

The London Mail says: 1t is not
altogether satisfa ctory to find that tn
alI-conquering American is not only
producing as good armor as England,
but producing it cheaper. Yet, ac-
corling to Il German naval periodical,
the British firms of Nickers and Brown
were underbidden by the American
firms of Carnegie and Bethlehem and
by the German firm of Krupp in a
tender for the armor of two new Rus
sian battIeships. Both American firms
were $40 per ton below the lowest
British tender. There is an unpleas-
ant monotony about these failures of
Englishmen to hold their own in for
eign contracts.

On account of the requirements
growing ont of the arrests of women
and young children, many cities have
found the office of police matron abso-
lutely indispensable. Moreover, they
have constantly increased its scope on
the idea that while the common pro-
prieties of life warranted the creation
of the office, it was furthermore of un-
told value on account of the reforma-
tory influence which it exercised. I'M
der proper regulations there is norea-
son why this office should not become
one of the most efficient in the city
Government.

The United States is the wealthiest
nation in the world. This is fact
that is often repeated, but because of
the natural disposition of the Ameri-
can people to belittle themselves,
which has arisen by a kind of reac-
ton from the old disposition to brag
and bluster, itseems to be universally
forgotten. The great English statis-
tician, Mulhall, has completed tables
showing the wealth of the nations of
the world in 1895 as follows pounds
being converted into dollars at the
rate of So per pound:

The New York Sun observes: There
must be a certain curiosity about bach
elors. No test is better or more con-
elusive than the naming of plays. A
new drama entitled "a Bachelors
Widow" has just been produced in
London. Then there have been at
various times the Bachelors Wives
of Samuel Beazley; the Bachelors
Wife" of Frederick Watson; "Bach-
elors," "The Bachelors, "Our Bach
elors, Bachelors Hall, Bachelors
Torments," "Bachelor's Vow," and
many others. In fact, from the atten-
tion that has been paid to this technical
ly solitary individual and his doings'
it is plain that he occupies an impor-
tant place in the economy OF society.

There is one thing which specially
frets and leases soldiers in the field.
1t is the ping of the sharpshooter's
bullet, 1t constitutes one of the un-
canny elements of war. That ounce
of lead comes from q source that
cannot be discovered. 1t may come
at the most unexpected moment and
it causes nervous tension which no
one can appreciate unless he has had
the experience. We stay-at-homes
