A RESTAURANT EPISODE.
A Sort of straw Vote.

An advertising agent, representing a
prominent New York magazine, while on
a recent Western trip, was dining one even
ing in a Pittsburg restaurant.
While waiting for his order he glanced
over his newspaper and noticed the adyer-
tisement of wellhnown dyspepsia prep
aration-Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets; as he
himself was a regular user Of the tablets
he began specializing as 10 how many of
the other travelling men In the dining room
were also friends of the popular remedy
for indigestion:
He says: Il counted twenty-three mon
at the tables and in the hotel office. l took
the trouble to interview them, and was sur
nrised to learn that nine of the twenty
three made a practice OF taking one or two
OF Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets after each
meal.
zone Of them told me he had suffered ST.
much from stomach trouble that at one
time he had been obliged to quit the road
but since using Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
had been entirely free from indigestion:
but he continued their use, especially while
travelling on account Of irregularity in
meals and because, like all travelling men,
he was often obliged 10 eat what he could
get and not always what he wanted.
Another. who looked the picture of
health said he never ate a meal without
taking q Stuart Tablet afterward, because
he could eat what he pleased and when he
pleased without fear of 4 sleeplcss night
or any other trouble.
"Still another used them because he was
subject TO gas on stomach, causing pressure
on heart and lungs, shortness Of breath
and distress In chest. which he no longer
experienced since using the tablets regu-
larry.
Another claimed that Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets was the only safe remedy he had
ever found for sour stomach and acidity.
I1e had formerly used common soda TO re
lieye the trouble but the tablets were much
hotter and safer TO use"
After smoking, drinking, or other ex-
cesses which weaken the digestive organs
nothing restores the stomach to healthy.
wholesome condition go effectually as
Stuarts Tablets.
stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets contain the
natural digestives, pepsin, disastase. which
every weak stomach lacks, as well IS nux,
hydrastin. and yellow parilla. and can be
safely relied upon as radical cure for
every form OF poor digestion. Sold by
druggists everywhere.

Yesterday was an important day In the
stock market There was activity during
the entire session and prices luctuated
rapidly enough TO make up for several OF
the apathetic sessions OF last week. Buy
ing was OF an excellent quality and at the
same time the short selling was spirited
enough TO show that the bears are not
yet entirely discouraged. The opening
prices were a trifle above the close on
Tuesday, and after hesitating for an hour
or more the advance was continued in
many parts Of the list. The close showed
fair net gains, although II was not at the
highest price of the day. The incident OF
the failure OF Tunstall d. Co. largely
shaped the character Of the market. II

American securities and the London mar

and the time loans at lower rate than

THE VOICE OF SCIENCE.
How Must Alcohol BE Clnssifieds-s
1t a Poison in the Strictest
Senseg

l. DR.. Bleuler, Switzerland journal
of Inebriety, April, 1899, page 17S)-
The physiological effect of alcohol is
that of poison, whose use is to be linn
tied to the utmost. Even the moderate
use as now practiced is injurious.
2. DR.. Belval, France (French Jour
nal of Hygiene)-Perfectly pure ethyl
alcohol itself exercises a dangerous ac-
ton upon the animal economy and
must be considered as a true poison.
3. D. Adolph Flick, late professor of
physiology, Wurzburg university, Ger
many international reputation)-In
an exhaustive definition we shall have
to class every substance as a poison
which, on becoming mixed with the
blood, causes a disturbance in the
functions of any organ. That alcohol
is such substance cannot be doubted.
Very appropriately has the English Ian
guage named the disturbance caused
by alcohol beverages intoXication,
which, by derivation, means poisoning.
4. DR.. j. f. Payne address published
in London LANCET, December, 1851,
considering at length the question as
to whether alcohol is. a poison, defines
poison as "a substance capable of in
juring the body, either by causing dam
age to the tissues or by producing
functional disturbance" He conclud-
ed that alcohol is poison in both
senses.
5. DR.. A. Forel, professor of nervous
diseases, University of Zurich, Swift
erland-Alcohol, even when diluted as
in wine, beer and cider, is a poison
which changes pathologically the It's
sues of the body and leads to fatty de-
generation. Of course 1 am not speak
ing here of the smallest doses. How
ever, the latter (for example, a glass of
wine or a half liter of beer) is also in
furious because it Injuries the brain by
producing paralysis and disarrange-
ment of function; that is clearly DEM
onstrated by experiments of Kraepelin,
Smith, Furer, Aschaffenburg. etc. The
same has never been controverted. The
most moderate drinking of alcohol is
quite useless for the individuals. but
by means of example and fashion pro-
duces an incalculable social injury and
misery of the mass, because all can
not remain moderate, and the strictly
moderate remains at least the eXcep-

A GENEROUS SPANIARD.
Helped Capture American Soldiers
and Refused the Return of
His Money.

During the period of his imprison.
ment by the Filipinos, Lieut.. Gilmore
and his men were at one time thrown
into an old barracks with a party OF
| Spanish prisoners, including a major
general. The latter, says a Washing
ton correspondent of the Chicago Rec
crd, in some way obtained money,
which he divided among his men, and
with great generosity sent so Mexican
dollars to Lieut.. Gilmore, asking him
to accept them with his compliments,
Gilmore made the condition that it
should be considered loan, to which
the Spanish general graciously as
scented, and he used the money to buy
shoes and clothing for his men, some
thing they sadly needed, for they were
almost naked.
After his rescue Gilmore learned that
the Spanish general, who had also es-
capped from the Filipinos, was in the
city of Manila, and offered him so sill
yer dollars in repayment of the loan.
The general was quite indignant and
refused to accept it. When Gilmore re-
minded him of the agreement he
smiled and said that he had consented
to it only because he feared the Amer
leans would not accept the money 9th
erwise. Gilmore told the story among
the other naval officers at Manila, who
passed around paper and collected a
handsome sum, which was expended in
the purchase of the most appropriate
and expensive piece of silver that could
be found in Manila. 1t was engraved
with brief statement of the facts and
presented to the Spanish general with
appropriate ceremonies as a token of
gratitude and admiration from the
navy of the United States. Then he was
invited to reception upon the flag
ship, where every officer in the feet
who could be spared welcomed him
and thanked him in person for his
kindness to Gilmore and his men.

MUST NOT IMBIBE ABSINTHE.
Ban Placed Upon 1t by the French
Minister of War, Gen.
GaIIifet.

A very important decision was pro-
mulgated by the French minister OF
war, Gen. the Marquis de CALI
fet, and one which is particularly note
worthy in country like France, where
the consumption of brandy and So
called "aperitiffs,' such as absinthe
and vermuth, is so prevalent, the "aper-
tiff" hour, between six and seven p. M,
being regular institution in France
and especially in Paris.
For some time the leading medical
men have been strongly condemning
the practice, declaring that the chief
brandy and alcoholic connections sold
as 'aperitifs" are rapidly filing the lu-
matte asylums of the country.
Recently number of military chiefs
prohibited the sale of such drinks in
the barracks and camps under their
command. Gen. Gallifet now comes
out in decree making this prohibition
general throughout the French army.
No brandy or other spirits and no So
called "aperitif'' may henceforth be
sold, although wine, beer and cider are
still allowed as innocuous beverages.
Gen. de Gallifet says this decision is
taken not only for the sake of uni
formity in army regulations, but to ex-
tend to the entire army beneficent
measure which should not be confined
to certain corps.

LOST FAITH IN EACH OTHER.
How the First Drink Destroyed HUI
man Confidence and Wrecked
Promising Careers.

A Springfield politician tells a queer
story of how two former members of
the legislature took to drink.
1.-TWO young fellows from the con-
gressional district where | used to
live" said he, "were elected to the leg
islature from adjoining counties. One
was elected one term and reelected the
next. The other was first elected at the
beginning of his friends second term.
The two-term man was Bill won t
tell you his last name. The others
first name was Joe.
BILL and Joe had been playmates in
youth-they were related distantly, l
think-and each had a high opinion of
the other. Neither drank-that is, be-
fore they took their first drinks-but
l am getting ahead of my story. If
anyone had said mean thing about
Joe, Bill would have knocked him down.
If anyone had told Joe that Bill had
ever taken drink, the informer's head
would have been punched. Each
thought the interchangeable of a mean
act, and, as matter of fact, it would
have been hard to find two finer young
fellows.
Bill had bad cold the first day of
the new session, and 1 advised him to
take hot whisky. He didn't like the
idea, and l have never forgiven myself
