DOCTORS MAKE REPORT s
Results of Experiments and Experience
 in Using Buffalo Lithia Water.

Until within quite a recent period, phy- scians as a class were very reluctant, if not absolutely unwilling, to admit that a miner al water could cure certain grave diseases, such as Bright's disease, gout, rheumatism, uric acid poisoning, inflammation of the bladder, dyspepsia, nervous disorders, ma laria, diseases of women and many others, but now their position as a class has changed. Their present attitude has been brought about almost altogether by Buffalo Lithia Water, and the persistence of it's proprietor in giving leading physicians the fullest opportunity to test for themselves, and by the most scientific methods know, the operation and effects of its use.
 Buffalo Lithia Water has been submitted to most thorough tests in actual practice, and with most satisfactory results, by such eminent physicians as pr. James l.. Cabell, president of the national board of health; Dr. Wm. A. Hammond surgeon-general (re- tired) U. S. army; pr. G. w Semple, presi- dent Medical society of Virginia; Dr. Geo. Halsted Boyland, member of the Academy of Medicine, Paris Dr. Horace c. Wood, professor of materia medica in the Uni sersity of Pennsylvania, and many others. Physicians whose decisions in matters of materia medica are accepted as authorita- tive, have as the result of such careful ex pertinent, told the world of case after case in which these dread diseases have yielded to the power of this palatable yet powerful preparation of nature, until it's efficiency is now admitted by the profession at large and it's use everywhere advised.
 A book of most interesting and convinc ing nature can be obtained on application to the proprietor of the Buffalo Lithia Springs, Virginia, giving in detail the en- dorsement of these physicians, and numer- ous accounts of cures. The diseases cover- ed embrace Uric Acid Diathesis, Gout, Rheumatism, Brights Disease. Renal Cal culi, Stone in the Bladder, Gall Stones, Lithaemia, Inflammation of the Bladder, in affections of the Nervous System, as Nerve Tonic, Dyspepsia, Gastro-Intestinal Disorders, Diseases of Women, Puerperal Eclampsia, Nausea and Vomiting of Preg- nancy, Impotence and Sterility, Diabetes, Dipsomania, Morphinomania and Nicotin- ism, Malaria and its sequelae, Scarlatina, and Diseases of the Skin. Everyone who is in poor health himself or has friends who are should take the time to send for a copy of this convincing publication.

SEVENTH YACHT RACE FAIL URE


NEW YORK, Oct. 14.-Columbia and
Shamrock got as far as the starting line
today, but did not cross it. There was
not enough wind to blow out the signal flags
when the time came to send them away
and after waiting an hour in the hope that
a breeze might spring UP from somewhere
the committee boat hoisted the now familiar
blue flag, crossed by white bar, denoting
that the race was off for the day
The usual fleet of excursion boats, yachts
and tugs was on hand to witness the mel
ancholy announcement.
After the yachts had returned to their
anchorage inside the Horseshoe and the tail
of the excursion fleet had disappeared
through The Narrows good strong breeze
blew in from the sea and held throughout
the afternoon. With such wind the boats
could have covered the course in four hours.
The yachts will try again on Monday but
the old barnacles are now saying that unless
a storm comes along to stir up the stagnant
atmosphere there is not much chance Of a

Chicago outClassed Cornell in the quick

backs attempted to swing around the ends
was too compact and for this reason was
often put out of the play altogether by the
Maroon ends and backs, who tore It to

Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets are a discovery

Almost everybody's digestion is dsordered
more or less and the commonest thing they
do for 1t is to take some one of the many
so-called blood purifiers, which in many
cases are merely strong cathartlcs Such
things are not needed. II the organs are in
clogged condition they need only a little
help and they will right themselves. Ca
thartcs irritate the sensitive Innings of tho
stomach and bowels and often do more
harm than good,
Purgng is not what is needed. The thlng
to do is to put the food in condition to be
readily dlgested and assimilated. Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets do this perfectly. They
partly digest what is eaten and give the
stomach Just the help that it needs. They
stimulate the secretion and eXcretion
OF the digestive fluids and relieve the con-
gested condition OF the glands and mem
branes. They put the whole digestive sys-

that is done you need take no more tablets,
