cATARRm OF THE STOMACH.
A Pleasant, Simple, Safe but EHecfuai
 Cuic for It.


 Catarrh of the stomach has long been | considered the next thing to incurable. The usual symptoms are a full or bloated sensation after eating, accom- panied sometimes with sour or watery risings, a formation of gases causing pressure on the lungs and heart, and difficult breathing; headache, fickle ap- petite, nervousness and general play ed-out and languid feeling.
 There is often a foul taste in the mouth, coated tongue, and if the in- terior of stomach could be seen 1t would show a slimy, infiamed condi- tion.
 The cure for this common and obsti- nate disease is found in a treatment which causes the food to be readily and thoroughly digested before it has time to ferment and irritate the delicate mu- cous surfaces of the stomach
 To secure a prompt and healthy di- gestion is the one necessary thing to do, and when normal digestion is secured the catarrhal condition will have disap- peared.
 According to Dr. Harlanson, the saf- est and best treatment is to use after each meal a tablet, composed of Dias- tase, Aseptic Pepsn, little Nux, Gold en Seal and fruit acids.
 These tablets can now be found at all drug stores under the name of Stu arts Dyspepsia Tablets, and, not being patent medicine, can be used with perfect safety and assurance that healthy appetite and thorough diges- tion will follow their regular use after meals
 MT. N. J. Booher of 2710 Dearborn street, Chicago, H., writes: "Catarrh is a local condition resulting from a neglected cold in the head, whereby the lining membrane of the nose becomes inf1amed and the poisonous discharge therefrom. passing back into the throat, reaches the stomach, thus producing catarrh of the stomach Medical au- thorities prescribed for me three years for catarrh of the stomach without cure, but to-day I am the happiest of men after using only one box of Stu arts Dyspepsia Tablets. cannot find appropriate words to express my good feeling. I have found flesh, appetite and sound rest from their use.'
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets Is the saf- est preparation as well as the simplest and most convenient remedy for any form of indigestion, catarrh of the stomach, biliousness. sour stomach, heartburn and bloating after meals
 Send for book, mailed free, on stom- ach troubles, by addressing the F. A. Stuart Co.,, Marshall, Mich. The tab lets can be found at all drug stores.

Letter From General Joubert, Com
mander Of the South African
Republic.

NEW YORK. Aug 25.-George Van
scieole. lawyer OF this city has re-
eelyed an interesting letter from Gen
eral e. J. Joubert. commander In chief
In the South African republic. in which
the general says:
your highly esteemed letter OF June
i2 Is az hand. ! am very glad to learn
from Il that a person can still be found
and that too. In the United States OF
the greatest republic OF America--who
thinks the Tr4nsvaal may perhaps be
In the right: FOR as any one reads the
newspapers he must come TO the con-
clnslon that the world Is now entirely
iillen with English truth concerning the
so-called Transvaal tyrany and the
grievances Of the ultlanders so that
one must from the opinion that hardly
any person In this world can be found
who would fesli inclined to speak a
good word for the bad Transvaal Boer
and also that the Transvaal Boer and
his government must be considered to
he as bad and guilty IN the eyes OF
Almighty God as they are In the eyes
Of the great Chamberlain and Of Rider
Haggara. the famous Engllshman, ac-
cording 20 which the Transvaal must
cease to be not only an independent
government, but also a land inhabited
by human beings.
"Now I'll not insist that the Trans
vaal government is infslllble and per-
feet but as compared with England OF
olden. and even with England OF the
present day. we have no reason to feel
ashamed. II is said that England In
her beginning was nothing more than
nest OF robbers and meeting place
for all sc)unarels Now, II II is true
that England has conquered Canada
and ireland In the manner described
by the French author, Elias Regnault.
and f. Wander Maarten, then are we
always able voluntarily to stand the
test Of comparison and we never would
entertain the least fear in submitting
all our disputes with England 20 arbl-
tration.
"But this England win never do,
nor dare TO do. The plan Of Chamber
lain Is not to come TO an understanding
or to a settlement OF any dispute with
us. II is impossible to dispel from the
minds OF the Beers the idea that he.
Chamberlain, has been involved with
Rhodes In the raid and ravages OF
Jameson upon the republic In 1895 and
that Il Is this failure that even at this
moment lies In his throat, lump so
hard that he is unable to swallow II
ard this he uses as a false pretence to
declare war against us for the asserted
grievances OF the Ultlanders In regard
to the right TO vote. but In order that
he may annihilate our small people and
annex our country II God win permit
him to do so.
You speak OF arbitration, but M.
Haggard says that arms must arbl-
trate, and Chamberlain refuses arbitra-
ton because he knows very well that
he never can gain thereby.
1T is my ardent wish that there
should be an opportunity in our coun-
try. or in any European country, to
see any OF these acting as arbitrators
between us, How worthy of the grace
OF great God of heaven would such a
country make herself"
