THE OLD WAY.
OF Treating Dyspepsia and Indigestion by
Dieting a Dangerous and Useless One.

We say the old way, but really it
is very common one at the present
time and many dyspeptics and physi-
clans as well consider the first step
to take in attempting to cure indiges-
ton is to diet, either by selecting
certain foods and rejectingothers or to
greatly diminish the quantity usual
ly taken, in other. words the starva-
tion plan is supposed by many to be
the first essential.
The almost certain failure of the
starvation cure has been proven time
pepsia makes its appearance a course
of dieting is at once advised.
All this is radically wrong. 1t is
foolish and unscientific to recon-
mend dieting TO a man suffering
from dyspsia, because indigestion it
self starves every organ, every nerve
and every fibre in the body.
What the dyspeptic wants is abun-
dant nutrition, which means plenty
of good, wholesome well cooked
food, and something to assist the
weak stomach to digest it. This is
exactly the purpose for which
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are
adapted and this is the method by
which they cure the worst cases of
dyspepsia, in other words the patient
eats plenty of wholesome food and
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets digests it
for him. In this way the system is
nourished and the overworked stom-
ach rested, because the tablets will
digest the food whether the stomach
works or not. One of these tablets
will digest 5000 grains of meat or
eggs.
Your druggist will tell you that
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the
purest safest remedy for
stomach troubles and every trial
makes one more friend for this eX-
cellent preparation. Sold at 80 cents
for full sized package at all drug
stores.

Application of Geneva Convention to Ma.


Application of Geneva Convention to Ma
val Warfare Recommended to Peace
COnference-Arbitrati
The HAGUE, June 14.-The Red Cross
subcommittee of the peace conference
reported in favor of applying the Cen
eva convention to naval warfare. This
is regarded as highly important ad-
vance.
In view of the statement published in
the United States that Mr.. Frederick
Hollis of the American delegation to the
peace conference had cabled to the state
department at Washington that Ger
many was opposed to arbitration in
principle, correspondent called upon
Mr.. Hollis, who declared there was alb
solutely no foundation for such state
ment.
There is no doubt" said Mr.. Hollis,
''that the Germans, in this respect re-
sembling the French and some other
European nations, are not as enthuSi-
ast.o in support Of the arbitration prin-
ciple as are others, which should take
the lead in the matter; but the German
delegates are cooperating Loyalty in
framing the arbitration schedule and
nothing has occurred which would JUS
tify the publication of any statement as
to German hostility to arbitration.
There is another story which is quite
as false and which, i'll the United States,
may be even more mischievious. mean
the absurd story that we have aban-
doned the American plan for a perman-
, ent arbitration board
The American plan for a permanent
tribunal, which has been correctly set
forth in the American papers, has been
referred, with other similar plans. to
the drafting committee. This commit
tee will report to the full commission
on arbitration the exact text of the
American proposals as submitted, and
also the exact text of all other proposals
submitted, as the drafting committee
shall Professionally recommend.
''The commission on arbitration and
afterward the conference will then
finally pass ON the various projects.
The fact that in the drafting committee
the English proposals have been used as
the basis of discussion does not indi-
cate in the least the abandonment of.
any other plans. It is not expected that
the drafting committee will be ready to
report to the commission on arbitration
for a week Or ten days; and all state
ments regarding its work or attitude
are mere surmise."

second one, that he lived in Chicago
with his first wife, and that she had
been dead Tor long time. He said he

THE STRIKERS PEACEFUL.
The Men Willing to Make Some
Concessions.

Concessions.
CLEVELAND, June 14.-The officials of
the Big Consolidated Railroad company
We're evidently surprised by the success
which attended the effort to move their
cars. There was no disturbance of any
kind. While this was due in part to
the vigilance of the police, who pre-
vented the assembling of crowds, it
was mainly attributable to the fact
that the strikers made no effort to in
duce non-union men to quit. In fact
the strikers remained away from tIse,
cars and they were operated on ohe
line ut intervals of about 30 minutes,
carrying few passengers during the
latter part of the day.
There is u teeliug on the part of the
members of the state board of arbitrh-
tion that they can bring abouta settle-
ment Of the differences, in spite Of the

The names of lis injured were given
some of whom We're expected to die. A
number were badly hurt.
Rev. DR.. Degnan of the Church of
the Immaculate Conception, in describ-
ing the approaching storm and the i'm
mediate results, said in part:
81 was standing on the porch of my
house, which is some three blocks west
of the Omaha station. with my little
nephew. Pointing to the threatening
clouds l said TO him: Those clouds are
cyclonic.' That was about $50. Then
l heard fearful sound. 1t was like the
painting of So locomotives on an up
grade. L said to the boy: There Is the
cyclone. In the southwest was a great
whisking black cloud, coneshaped, the
apex i'll the. earth, the funnel in the sky.
ALREADY, far ahead of the center, the
air was full of flying spinters, boards,
feathers, bedding and everything. I
told the boy to run, and warn the people
in the houses between US and the track.
From all sides the people were running,
crying for assistance. took them and
some people from the parish sehoolhouse
and hurried them into the cellar of my
house. They begged for absoIution and
l knelt down and gave.it to them. Even
as prayed, the great black cloud of de-
struction was upon the village. Out of
the general and terrific roar could hear
the crashing and kissing sound, as house
after house collapsed. I ran out and
was struck twice by pieces of flying
plank. Then the storm was gone.
II Immediately began the work of
rescue. 1t was awful. God keep me
from seeing the like again. Everywhere
means, shrieks and calls for help were
heard. The wounded cried out for pray
ers. 1 gave them absolution while as
sisting in the work of rescue. Catholics
and Protestauts prayed for them"
1t was the average resident of New
Richmond who estimated the loss of
life most seriously. They claimed that
hundreds We're missing who were
buried i'll the ruins and there inciner-
ated. One such is @. A. Nelson, who
owned the Columbian restaurant, To-
Gated Oh Main street. His estimate of
loss was 400 dead.
