THE FEAR OF HUMBUG.
prevents Many People From Trying a
Good Medicine,

stomach troubles are so common and III
most cases so obstinate to cure that peo-
pie are apt to look with suspicion on
any remedy claiming to be a radical and
permanent cure for dyspepsia and indi-
gestion. Many such pride themselves on
their acuteness in never being humbug-
sed, especially in medicines.
This fear OF being humbugged can be
carried too far, so far, in fact. that many
people suffer for years with weak di-
gestion rather than risk a little time and
money in faithfully testing the claims of
a preparation SO reliable and universally
used as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
Now Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets are
vastly different in one important respect
from ordinary proprietary medicines for
the reason that they are not secret
patent medicine, no secret is made of
their ingredients, but analysis shows them
to contain the natural digestive fer
ments, pure aseptic pepsin, the digestive
acids, Golden Seal, bismuth, hydrastis
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 it has time to 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 trou-
bles because they act entirely on the
bowels, whereas the whole trouble is
really in the stomach.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets taken after
meals digest the food That is all there
is To il Food NOT dipaSted or half digest -
ed is poison, as it creates gas, acidity,
headaches, palpitation of the heart, loss
of flesh and appetite and many other
troubles which are often called by some
other name.
They are sold by druggists everywhere
at 30 cents per package.

noon by Mayor Powell and City Clerk
Smith jointly. This was done because the
Board failed to incorporate in the orti-
nance ordering the election any provis-
ion for the appointment of poll holders,
and some question had been raised as 10
whose duty it was to make the appoint
ments-the mayors or the city clerk S.
The notification sent out to the above
persons notifying them of their appoint
ment reads as, follows:
Mayors Office,
Raleigh, n. c., March Is, 1900
Dear Sir: At the last meeting of the Board
of Aldermen it was ordered that there be a
preliminary election held for the purpose of as
certaining the wishes of the citizens as TO
whether the Market House shall be sold, should
a fair price be offered. In furtherance of this
we hereby appoint you poll holders for your
division of the ward OF which fou resi-
dent. For this service compensation of -
per day will be paid Please express your ac-
ceptance opposite, your name,
A. NJ. POWELL, Mayor
HAM F. SMITH Clerk.
The publication in yesterday morning
News and Observer of the news that all
effort was being made TO have the cleo
ton postponed created quite a sensa
ton.
On the streets little else was discussed
and before 10 o'clock two calls had been
issued: One for special meeting OF
the Board of Aldermen to discuss the
question of postponement, and If 1T should
be decided to hold the election to appoint
poll holders for it: the other call was
for a meeting of the business men of
the city to be held at noon in the office
of President Thomas at the Commercial
and Farmers Bank. The object of the
business mems meeting was to protest
against any postponement of the election
and to devise some means to interest the
people of the city in the movement to
build an auditorium, the success of which
movement necessitates the sale of the
market
The meeting was we'll attended. COM
mittee was appointed to go before the
board at O'Clock and urge the necessity
of holding the primary next Monday
Also stems were taken to interest the
voters in the matter and bring out as
full vote as possible next Monday.
The meeting of the Board of Aldermen
was not held. It failed for want of a
quorum. Nine members are required 10
make a quorum, and only eight member:
were present. These were Messrs. VII
der, Jones, Bogasse, BEDFORD, COOK
Crocler Parish and Mcdonald. Alder
men Andrews and German were in the
city, but they did not attend the meeting.
On failure to get quorum Mayor
Powell and Clerk Smith decided to ap-
point the poll holders jointly as above
indicated.

Silver in India.

Upon the closing of the Indian
mints in 1893 to the free coinage of
silver rupees, the government who
has accumulated quite a stock of
gold, decreed that the rupee should
be considered as the equivalent of
~ l-3 English pennies in gold, and
that all rupees brought to the mints
would be exchanged for gold coin at
that figure, which was the equiva-
lent of 489 cents American currency.
All rupees so redeemed were at once
melted down to bars and sold for
gold at the commodity value of silver
at the time of sale, and all gold so
obtained was added to the redernp-
ton fund and used to buy more ru-
pees. OF course this produced more
or less contraction of the rupee cir
culation, and resulted in loss to the
government; as the commodity value
OF silver was always less than it's
coinage value. But it was believed
that this loss would be easiy borne
if fuctuation in the value of the ru-
pee could be stopped, and if gold
could be forced into circulation.
However, very few silver coins were
after the first few months of the
new regulations-offered for re-
demption, only such in fact as repre-
sented net payment abroad; and as
the general balance of trade has been
uniformly in favor of India, such
we're light. After seven years of
trial, the government has been forced
to abandon the scheme, and is now
coming rupees as fast as it was a.
while ago engaged in destroying
them. This is one of the circum-
stances that have caused the price of
silver to advance. The demand for
silver coinage in India is now said to
be so strong that the government
has been compelled to resume rupee
coinage to prevent financial disaster.
In other words, the effort to intro
duce gold coinage among the people
of India is so far failure. Mining

In few days Christmas will be

greatest attraction and these little

We trust that few children of this
land will be overlooked on that oc-
casion and that each will be fitly re-
membered. We who are older of
course do not look so eagerly for
ward to this day because we are not
usually the recipients of presents on
that joyous occasion, but on the
contrary we are the Santa Claus of

look forward and backward and con-
slider if the retrospect and the future
have and will be stored with good
things for each of us. This is the
question with the individual and the
nation, is there prosperity in store
for us? Shall we amass wealth in
the near future or shall we simply
eak out an existance? But at this
glad Christmas time we are present.
ed with the thought, it is more bless

to remember those about us who are
