PECULIAR POISONS.
GENERATED INTHE HUMAN BODY
Tho Result OF Imperfect Digestion
Of Food.

Every living thing. plant or animal. con-
tains within itself the germs Of certain
decay and death.
In the human body these germs OF dis
ease and death (called by scientists Pto-
maines). are usually the result OF imper-
feet digestion of food; the result OF indi-
gestion or dyspepsia.
The stomach, from abuse, weakness. does
not promptly and thoroughly digest the
food. The result is a heavy. sodden mass
which ferments (the first process Of de-
,cay), poisoning the blood, making it thin,
weak and lacking in red corpuscles; poi
soning the brain, causing headaches and
pain in the eyes.
Bad digestion irritates the heart. caus-
ing palpitation and finally bringing on dis
ease of this very important organ
Poor digestion poisons the kidneys. cabs
ing Bright's disease and diabetes.
And this Is SO because every organ. ev-
cry nerve depends upon the stomach alone
for nourishment and renewal. and weak
digestion shows itself not only In loss OF
appetite and flesh. but in weak nerves and
muddy complexion.
The great English scientist. Huxley, said
the best start in life is a sound stomach
Weak stomachs fail to digest food proper
ly, because they lack the proper quantity
Of digestive acids 0actic and hydrochlorc)
and peptOgenic products; the most sensible
remedy In all cases Of indigestion is to
take after each meal one or two OF Stu
arts Dyspepsia Tablets. because they
supply IN a pleasant, harmless form all
the elements that weak stomachs lack.
The regular use of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets will cure every form of stomach
trouble except cancer of the stomach.
They increase flesh, insure pure blood.
strong nerves. bright eye and clear com

the affair and says that, she will not only

Police Officers Byrne and Leighton. with
SurTy, were watching some .boys early
etsierday morning at the corner of Second
avenue and Madison street From their
actions the officers thought the boys in
tended TO break into fruit store. One
OF the boys took t.s position on the side

supposed that they intended 20 force an
entrance from beneath Byrne captured
the boy who was standing on the side

THE REAL CUBAN PROBLEM.
Our Greatest Trouble May Come After We
Have Driven the Spaniards Out.
! me Savannah News.

From the Savannah News.
We are approaching the real Cuban
problem-the problem which we shall
base to solve before there can be perma-
nent peace in Cuba. That problem is to
establish stable, liberal and satisfac-
tory government in that island. The
differences between the royalists and
revolutionists are so radical that it is
doubtful if there will be harmony be-
tween them for generation. The United
States are bound to give the island
government which will command the re-
spect and obedience of all classes of the
people, and which will insure protection
to life and property.
AS soon as Santiago surrendered rep
resentatives of the so-called Cuban re-
public appeared there and announced
their purpose of making that city the
capital of the republic for the time be-
ing. When General Shafter stated that
he intended to keep some Spanish of
ficers, who belong to the autOnomist
government, in charge of the city the
Cuban officers protested, saying that to
do so would be most serious mis- take,
because the Spaniards are bitterly hos
tile to the United States. These Cubans
also said that if autOnomist Spaniards
were left in charge of Santiago'S munich
pal affairs the Cubans would feel that
their cause had received a serious SET
back.
From Madrid comes the statement that
the autOnomists in Cuba have about de.
cided to cut loose from Spain and de-
clare for a epublic-that if Cuba is to
be independent the royalists should have
control of the government-not the revo-
lutionists. They have gone so far, it is
alleged, as to ask the Spanish soldiers to
remain in Cuba and help Thorn establish
Cuba's independence.
There is, therefore, probability of
two republics, one having the support of
the royalsts and the other of the revo-
lutiOnists. In that case what would the
United States do? Would they fight
both republics and proceed to establish
a government such as they thought Cuba
should have? If they should they would,
in all probability, loose the support of
both the rOyalists and the revolutionists
and would have to deal with both of
them with firm hand.
We have not, of course, got possession
yet of Cuba, but there is no doubt that
we shall have it before the end of this
year, if not much sooner, but it is Just as
well to look ahead and see what troubles,
if any, are likely to confront us when we
get control of the island. The prospect
is not such as to create the impression
that we are going to have an easy task to
give the people of Cuba the kinl OF gov
eminent they ought to have. Our great
est trouble with Cuba may come after
we have driven the Spaniards out of the
island.
