PECULIAR P0ISONS.
GENERATED IN THE HUMAN BODY
The Result of Imperfect Digestion of
Food

Every living thing, plant or animal,
contains within itself the germs of GER
tain decay and death.
In the human body these germs of
disease and death called by scientists
Ptomaines) are usually the result Of
imperfect digestion of food; the result
of indigestion 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 decay, poisoning the blood,
making it thin, weak, and lacking in
red corpuscles; poisoning the brain,
causing headaches and pain in the
eyes.
Bad digestion irritates the heart,
causing palpitation and finally bring
ing on disease of this very important
organ.
Poor digestion poisons the kidneys,
causing Bright's disease and diabetes.
And this is so because every organ,
every 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 properly because they lack the
proper quantity of digestive acids Qac-
tic 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 ele-
ments that weak stomachs lack
The regular use of Stuart's Dyspep-
sia Tablets will cure every form of
stomach trouble except cancer of the
stomach.
They increase flesh, insure pure blood
strong nerves, a bright eye and clear
| complexion because all these result
only from wholesome food we'll di-
gested.
Nearly all druggists sell Stuarts
Dyspepsia Tablets at so cents full sized
| package or by mail by enclosing price
| to Stuart Co., Marshall, Mich, but ask
your druggist first.

ITALIANS CELEBRATE.
Addresses Listened to in Music Hall

Demonstration.

Though Italians at home and many
In this country have observed year
after year the twentieth day of Sep
tember with almost religious intensity,
yesterday was the first time that the
Italians of this city have made any
concerted attempt to observe this day
of days" in the Italian calendar of
holidays. The Societa di Italia, of
which Contractor Frank Carlucci is
president, arranged for the affair and
invited the cooperation of the Prince
Victor Emmanuel and the Corana
D'Italia societies.
The members of the above societies
formed on Lackawanna avenue near
the Roma hotel about 1.90 o'clock and
marched about the central city streets.
There We're about 300 men in the pa
rade, each marcher wearing a white
yachting cap. The Roma band, OF
Dunmore, led the procession and played
inspiring music. Peter Cardiello acted
as marshal, and after the parade all
gathered at Music hall, where public
meeting was held
The platform was decorated with the
national colors the emblematic flags
of the several societies and the italian

non n-members of the several societies.
President Carlucci acted as chairman.
Introductory remarks were made by
the chairman. Addresses were made
by Consul Tiscar, Dr.. Villone, Rev.
Monteleone and others. Consul Tis-
cars remarks We're very eloquent and
ELECTED much applause. He spoke of
the meaning of the affair, the reason
why the Italia" society arranged it,
and thanked the other societies for
their happy assistance. He referred to
the events which occurred on and
| about Sept. 20, 1870, when Rome was
freed from temporal power, and later
| on Oct ,, was made the new capital
| of reunited Italy.
In glowing terms he spoke of the
| great Victoria Emmanuel II, who had
| led the victorious army into Rome
| through the breach at Porta Pia on
| that memorable day. 1t was fitting
! indeed to commemorate such an event
and honor the sacrifice of the brave
men who made such freedom possible
In concluding, he paid a tribute tc
this great country of America, it's pres
ent success and referred to the past
successes when independence was
fought for. The other speakers ad-
| dressed the gathering in much the
| same strain.
This part of the commemoration fes.
tivities being concluded, the societies
were again marshalled and proceeded
to Harmony Garden, where appropriate
exercises were held during the eve
ming. 1t is intended that hereafter or
each recurring Sept. 20 similar com
memoration exercises will be conduct
ed by the Italians of this city.

RoBY MAY BE BATTLE GROUND
Place Secured for Corbett and Nc
Gov.

La Porte, Ind, Sept. 20--Roby, which
in past years was the scene of many
pugilistic battles, may be made the
arena for the fight between Corbett
and Mccoy.
Private advices froih Roby give the
details of the proposed meeting. Arch
itects have been at work for several
days on plans for the conversion of
the betting ring at Roby into a fight
Ing arena with a capacity of 10000.
The details for the meeting of the
gladiators is in the hands of Stuart.
Considine and John Condor, of race
track fame. and a secret meeting held
al Mount Clemens, Michigan, resulted
in Roby being selected as the battle
ground of the two heavyweigths.
1t is the evident purpose TO keep
both Corbett and Mccoy in training
without giving the exact location of
the fight and the advices revealing
the arrangements in progress of con-
summation have caused a great SEN
sation in sporting circles.

CoMAL WILL TRY AGAIN.
Another Effort to Land Food for
Starving Cubans

Washington, Sept. 20.-Acting Sec
retary Meiklejohn is making renewed
efforts to secure the entrance of the
Coinal with the million rations on
board into some Cuban port. The
Comal is now at Key West where she
was ordered when the Spanish author
tiles refused to allow her to land her
cargo without the payment by the
United states of duty to the amount
of 100000 in gold. Unofficial advices
having been received that the port of
bahia Hondo is opened for relief with
out the payment of duty, Secretary
Meikleiohn is now making an inquiry
as TO whether the Comal relief sup
plies can be landed.
It has been determined that the evac-
nation of the island will take place
first in the west and move eastward,
as 1t is believed that the relief for
the starving Cubans should be landed
in the west. Senior Quesada, of the
Cuban junta, saw Secretary Meikleiohn
today and represented the Cubans as
being in a sad plight. He is anxious
to have everything possible done for
them.

THE CRY OF CORRUPTION.
When It Is Simmered Down 1t
Means Nothing.

Colonel W. A. Stone, at Williams Grove.
Our critics claim that the admins
tration of the Republican party in
Pennsylvania is corrupt. Wherein and
in what particular is it corrupt? In what
particular has the Republican party
keen unmindful of the rights of the
people of Pennsylvania? They took
a bankrupt state, forty million dol
lars in debt. They now exhibit it to
you with that indebtedness reduced to
very little more than million dollars,
and with the state disbursing more
than half the money received from
corporations among the counties of
the state, thus lifting the burdens of
the people. And in addition to that
it has taken off your taxes,
This state has not been entirely un-
der Democratic control since we came
into possession in 1861. If the Repub-
lican party is to be charged with all
the mistakes and wrongs of individ-
uals, let our critics be fair, let them
DE manly, let them be honest and give
the party credit for the good it has
done. But you hear no mention made
of the wise legislation enacted by the
Republican party in Pennsylvania. Not
a dollar has been lost to the state in
all these years. Not dollar collected
from lands of the state. Not a dollar
collected from trades, occupations, pro-
fessions. Not a dollar collected from
horses and cattle; but collected almost
entirely from corporations, and more
than half returned to the counties OF
the state. These wise laws, so bene-
ficial to the people of our state, are
entirely incompatible with the purpo-
ses of any man influencing or control
ling the party to loot the state and
divert the funds.
