THEY RIDICULE 1T.
Many People RidicuIe the Idea of an
Absolute Cure for Dyspepsia
and stomach Troubles.
Ridiculc, However, is Not Argument,


Stomach troubles are so common and in
most cases so obstinate to cure that peo-
pie are apt to look with suspicion on any
remedy claiming . be a radical. perma-
nent cure for dyspepsia and Indigestion.
Many such pride themselves on their
acuteness in never being humbugged, es-
pccially in medicines.
This fear of being humbugged can be
carried too far; so far, in fact, that many
people suffer for years with weak diges-
ton rather than risk a little time and
money in faithfully testing the claims
made Of a preparation so reliable and uni
versally used as Stuarts Dyspepsia
Tablets.
Now Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are
vastly different In one important respect
from ordinary proprietary medicines for
the reason that they are not
secret patent medicine, no Sc
cret is made Of their ingredients.
but analysis shows them TO contain
the natural digestive ferments-pure Assem-
tic pepsin, the digestive acids. Golden
Seal, bsmuth, hydrastus, and nux. They
are not cathartic. neither do they act
powerfully on any organ. but they cure
indigestion on the common-sense plan OF
digesting the food eaten thoroughly before
IL has time 10 ferment. sour. and cause
the mischief. This is the only secret
Of their success.
Cathartic pills never have and never can
cure Indigestion and stomach troubles. be-
cause they act entirely on the bowels.
whereas the whole trouble Is really In the
stomach.
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets taken after
meals digest the food That Is all there
is TO it. Food not digested or half digest
ed is poison. as IL creates gas. acidity,
headaches. palpitation OF the heart, loss
or flesh and appetite. and many other
troubles which are often called by some
other name,

Tobermorey, Scotland, March O.
Investigation into the wreck of the
British steamer Labrador from St.

INDEMNITY CLAIMS.
A Statement Concerning the Liability OF
the Government in Time of War.

WASHINGTON, D. c., March 1.-The
government expects to have TO consider
a large number Of claims for indemnity S
a sequence to our military operations and
campaigns, but it is said in general way
by government officials that SO far as
result of the war indemnity claims report
ed as a result of the war appear to nave
substantial grounds, though all Will re-
ceive careful consideration The follow
ing statement may be regarded as sum-
ming UP in a general way the popsition
this government takes in the considera-
ton of claims for indemnity.
No government in the absence of special
treaty stipulations insures the absolute
safety and security of the life and prop
erty of subjects or citizens of foreign
states against injuries committed by in
surgents. mobs or private Indicators
within its own territory. Every govern
ment is bound to accord a reasonable de-
gree of protection to aliens and to their
property within its Jurisdiction as against
such injuries, but if the authorities use
reasonable diligence to extend the pro-
lection of the law to all it discharges its
primary duty. If the government is no
titled that such injury is threatened it is
It's duty 10 guard against It's iilll1ClloA
If it is able 10 do so. The burden of
proof in such cases rests on the claim
ant to show the exceptional circum-
stances that exist as the basis Of such
liability, as for example that there has
been a want Of good faith or Of reasonable
care in affording protection. In short, it
must be shown that the authorities are
morally culpable for the injuries inflicted.
BY the treaty of peace this government
will pay such claims as arise subsequent
to the outbreak of the Cuban insurrection,
as the Spanish would be internationally
liable TO pay American citizens. This la
bility depends on the circumstances IN
der which the injuries complained Of
were committed and the grounds of such
liability are well defined by international
authorities.

REINFORCEMENTS
Ordered to General Otis-six More hegi-

Ordered to General Otis-Six More hesi-
ments to Go to the Philippines.
Washington, March 2.-The Secretary
of War has Just ordered the reinforce
ment of Gen Otis by six regiments.
These are the Sixth infantry, now at
San Antonio. and the Sixth artillery,
along the Atlantic coast, the Ninth in
fantry at Madison barracks, Thirteenth
infantry. in New York State, Twenty
first infantry, at Plattsburg, n. Y, and
the Sixteenth infantry, at Fort Creek
and neighboring posts in the middle
West.
These regiments have been ordered
to make ready to proceed to San Fran
cisco and thence TO Manila.
In answer to the direct question as to
whether or not these regular troops
are intended to relieve corresponding
number Of volunteer soldiers at Manila,
il was said at the War Department
that while this probably would be the
case, it was not possible yet to make
a positive statement. This means that
if when the achievements arrive at
Manila the conditions are satisfactory,
the volunteers will be brought home;
but if Otis shall have need Tor all the
combined force, they they must wait
The reinforcements are made up OF
troops who are not only regulars in
the full sense of the term, but VINO
have been through the Cuban or Porto
Rican campaigns.
