Sd each. Each tin will be cLiong in shape As eighteen or twenty days will
 be occupied in the manufacture of the
 necessary dies for the design. It is
 evident that the whole order will not
 be executed till some time next month,
 but it is understood that the present is
 to be a New Years gift from the Queen
 to her soldiers and sailors in South Af-
 rica. Hence the date "1900"
 The gifts will besnuique, and they will
 go from her Majesty to the brave de-
 lenders of the empire, and to them on- ly. Each tin as it is manufactured will
 be counted, and only sufficient will be made to carry out her Majesty's order. The Queen having expressed the desire that none but her soldiers and sailors in South Africa should receive the tins, special orders have been issued that no more than the required number shall be manufactured, and when the total number has been made the dies will at once be destroyed
 A few words may be appropriate as to the character of the chocolate which will carry to every soldier and sailor personal feeling of the kind thought of the Sovereign. It will be the best choc- olate that can be had. It will be nour- ishing as well as toothsome Messrs Rowntree state that brand known as "The Queens" will be the kind which they will use in carrying out their DOT tion of the order. The chocolate will not be merely a sweetmeat--and it will be that-but can be used equally we'll as beverage. Each half pound will be sufficient to make from twelve to six teen cups of warm refreshing drink, which will be as sustaining as 1t will be palatable, if made with that care cooks in rendering the chocolate as pleasant to the taste as possible. It is to note that at a rough estimate her Majesty's gift represents over 100000 cups of chocolate If all the troops utilize it as a drink or it will give pleasure in countless odd moments, for chocolate can be eaten at any time, off or on the battlefield. It is certain | that the gift will be heartily apprecia- ted, and the manufacturers have nobly risen to the occasion of unique royal sympathy. In the case of Messrs. [ Rowntree- and probably the other firms have the same intention--the or- der of her Majesty is being executed at | cost price-The London Telegraph.

ST0MACHS THAT WON'T WORE


=
Weak. Need stuart's dyspepsia Tablets.
There Is a cure for dyspepsia.
Sufferers who have tried noxlouS
nostrums will probably be skepti-
cal but skepticism vanishes when
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are
tried. Whether the trouble is dyS-
pepsia of long standing, or merely
a simple case of indigestion, re-
lief is prompt and pronounced.
The less the trouble the fewer tab
lets need be taken.
Heaviness after eating, sour
stomach, as indicated by belching
fatigue with slight exertion, or
with no exertion at all, disturbed
sleep, nervousness, constipation, de-
preston, "blues," these things can
commonly be set down as symptoms
of dyspepsia. And dyspepsia is
merely indigestion in an aggravated
form.
BY promoting perfect digestion,
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets produce
strong nerves, restful, refreshing
sleep, pure blood and good. sound,
healthy flesh. They make the skin
clear, the eyes bright, the mind
cheerful.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are a
medicine and more than medicine.
They digest the food and make it
easy Of assimilation, and they re-
lieve the infiamed, diseased condi-
ton of the membraneous Innings
and the glands of the stomach and
bowels. They help the digestive
organs over the hard places, and
put them into a healthy, active con-
dition. They effect a quick and
permanent cure. You don't have to
continue taking them forever, still
it is well to have box handy and
take one at the first return of the
trouble.
Perfectly well people are made
sick by eating too much, or I'M
wholesome food. but not If they
take a tablet after eating. Treat
ment with Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets does not necessitate dieting or
any change of habits. They digest
the proper food and act upon the
other kind in such way as to make
it pass off quickly and harlnlessly.
You may eat and drink what you
like, when you like, and as much as
you like if you take a tablet after
wards.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are
sold by all druggists at SOC for full
sized package.
