PECULIAR POlS0NS.
GENERATED IN THE HUMAN BODY

GENERATEDIN IN THE HUMAN BODY The Result of Imperfect Digestion of Food.
 Every living thing plant or animal. con- tains within itself the germs of certain de- cay and death.
 In the human body these germs of disease and death (caled by scientists Ptomaines), are usually the result of imperfect digestion of food; the result of indigestion or dys- pepsia.
 The stomach, from abuse, weakness, does not promptly and thoroughly digest the food. The result is heavy sudden mass which ferments (the first process of decay) poisoning the blood, making it thin, weak. and lacking in red corpsucules; poisoning the brain causing headaches and pain in the eyes.
 Bad digestion irritates the heart, causing palpitaion and finally bringing on disease of this very important organ.
 Poor digestion poisons the kidneys, cause ing Brghts disease and diabetes. And this is so because every organ, every nerve depnds upon the stomach alone for nourishment and renewal, and weak diges- tion shows itself ont only in loss of appetite du ISSl put III Weah nerves duu nuuuy complexion.
 The great English scientist, Huxley said the best start in life is a sound stomach. Weak stomachs fail to digest food properly, because they lack the proper quantity of digestive acids Qactic and hydrochloric) and peptogenic products the most sensible remedy in all cases of indigestion, Is to take after each meal one or two of Stuart's Dys- pepsia Tablets, because they supply in a pleasant, harmless form all the clements that weak stomachs lack. The regular use of Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets will cure evry form of stomach trouble except cancer of the stomach. They increase flesh, insure pure blood, strong nerves, bright eye and clear com- plexion, because all these result only from wholesome food we'll digested sNearly-all druggists sell Stuarts Dyspep- sia Tablets at 50 cents full sized package or by mail by enclosing price to Stuart Co.,, Marshall Mich but ask your druggist first. free.

which would naturally ensue from the

and in which have also invested heav-

somewhat premature, and 1 now find
myself confronted with a shortage of

borrowed as 1 needed it in my bus

"Well my advice is you take the

Written for The Prison Mirror.
THE DEVILS ISLE,

Since the fate of the unfortunate
Lieutenant Dreyfus is at present oc-
cupylng the interest of the public, an
account of his place of confinement
will perhaps prove interesting to our
readers; the information is gathered
from French sources which may be con-
sidered authentic. Accounts have Of
ten been seen in American papers
that Lieut.. Dryfus is confined in an
iron cage. This assertion is undoubt-
edly the offspring of the fantasy of
some metropolitan space writer.
On the northeast coast of South
America, between the mouths Of Ori-
nocco and Amazon rivers, between
Venezuela on one side and Brazil on
the other is located a territory about
the size of Great Britain, called Guiana,
which is divided into three parts, one
English, one Dutch and one French,
the latter is the one which draws our
attention from the fact that immediat-
ely outside its coast is located the Dev-
ills Isle
French Guiana was colonized by the
Free ch in the seventeenth century,
after many unsuccessful attempts had
been made by other nations, especially
the Spanish, who imagined that in this
territory was located the famous city
of gold, Ell Dorado. The French Colo
nists met with many hardships on &C.
count of the unhealthy climate, and
many of these may perhaps be ascribed
to the fact that some gold is found in
this territory and this fact always
caused the colonists to neglect the
more sure means of acquiring wealth
for the uncertain quest after the yellow
phantom. The territory was once ceded
to the Portuguese, but was ultimately
returned to the French
No advance seems to have been made
in prosperity by the colony around
Cayenne, and finally, during the second
empire, the colony was designated a
penal or deportation territory, and pris-
ons took the place of plantations.
Agriculture and cattle raising are al.
most dormant, and only the mines are
used to employ the labor of the prison
ers. But this labor is very severe on
account of the great heat of the tropi-
cal sun and the equally unhealthy peri
ods of excessive humidity. Altogether
little revenue accrues to France from
this colony, although it's natural re.
sources are undeniably great.
Immediately outside the coast are
located three islands, separated from
each only by narrow passages of few
hundred metres width. From the sea
