FOR THE CHILDREN
To Keep Their Digestion Perfect Nothing Is So Safe and Pleasant as Stewards
 Dyspepsia Tablets

Thousands of men and women have found Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets the safest and most reliable preparation for any form of indigestion or stomach trouble. Thousands of people who are not sick, but are we'll and wish to keep well take Stuart's Tablets after every meal to insure perfect digestion and avoid trouble. But 1t is not generally known that the Tablets are just as good and wholesome for little folks as for their elders.
 Little children who are pale, thin and have no appetite, or do not grow or thrive, should use the tablets after eating and will derive great benefit from them
 Mrs. G. H. Crotsley, 53S Washington St., Hoboken, New Jersey, writes: Stuart's s Dyspepsia Tablets just fill the bill for chill dren, as we'll as for older folks. I've had the best of luck with them. My three-year- old girl takes them as readily as candy have only to say "tablets' and she drops everything else and runs for them
 A Mlffalo mother a short time ago who despaired of the life of her babe was so de- lighted with the results from giving the child these tablets that she went before the notary public of Erie Co.,, N Y, and made the following affidavit:
 "Gentlemen:-Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets were recommended to me for my two- months'old baby which was sick and puny and the doctors said was suffering from in- digestion. l took the child to the hospital, but there found no relief. A friend men, toned the Stuart Tablets and procured box from my druggist and used only the large sweet lozenges in the box and was de- lighted to find they were just the thing for my baby. I feel justified in saying that Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets saved my child g life. MRS. w. T. DETHLOPE.

 Notary Public In and for Erie Co.,. N. Y.
 For babies, no matter how young or del- icate the tablets will accomplish wonders in increasing flesh, appetite and growth. Use only the large sweet tablets in every box Full sized boxes are sold by all drug gists for 50 cents, and no parent should ne- glect the use of this safe remedy for all stomach and bowel troubles if the child is aiing in any way regarding its food or similation
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets have been known for years as the best preparation for all stomach troubles whether in adults or infants.

RELIGION OF THE
 CELESTIAL EMPIRE
Continued from Ninth Page.)

Continued from Ninth Page.) mess If you show your temper and fall, but if you are negotiating loan, 1t is not your own business. The greatest mover of China in modern times is Sir Robert Hart, who, forty-six years ago, built the wonder full service now known as the Imperial Maritime Customs.
 It rests on the sound foundations so suc- cessfully laid by the genius of the Ameri- can, MT. Lay. Officials of all civilized na- tions are employed by Sir Robert Hart. His system of training them is entirely based on what I have just explained and which might be called "festina lente' policy. This service now yields revenue of 22,500,000 taels annually Gone tael equals about one dollar In gold). This wonderful foreign structure which Sir Robert has built up on Chinese soil, and of which branches now cover the great seaboard and rivers of the empire, proves what foreign brains and influence can do in China if ex- erted in the right way. But the vast bulk of the revenues of the Middle Kingdom are still under control of the viceroys and gov- ernors They are derived from the follow ing taxes:
 Land tax, likin (octroD, salt tax, produce tax, native opium tax, interior customs and a number of licenses.

CAMPAIGN IN LOUISIANA.
Much Bitterness Caused by Attitude
of CaRery Republicans.

New Orleans, April 1.-THE state cam
paign virtually closed tonight by rival
mass meetings.
The Democrats had a great rally at
Elk Place, presenting three dozen speak
ers from four platforms.
The Caffery Republicans wing held a
smaller meeting at the head of Canal
street, clubbing it an Indignation meeting
TO protest against election frauds, which
they fear will be committed.
The Democrats have offered their watch
ers to witness the vote and count all over
the state, but they want commissioners
or nothing. In the city, the commissioner
for the Republican side had been accorded
to the Wimberley wing, the Democrats
holding that it is the regular Republican
party recognized by the National Republi-
can Committee. Most of the parishes have
ruled likewise, though some have given
the ordered commissioner to the Caffery
element.
The campaign has been made very Bit
ter by the Caffery combine, of which
Senator Caffery's son is the candidate for
Governor, the Senator joining in arraign-
ing Democratic methods of election and
attacking the one-man power exercised by
Gov. Foster. The latter was with diff
Guilty dissuaded from calling Senator Caf-
ferry to personal account, it being deemed
a bad precedent for the Governor to en-
gage in a personal quarrel.
In some parts of the state Caffery
speakers have appealed to arms. The
outlook however, is for a quiet election
with the vote much lighter than usual.

MmLIoNArRE SHOT BY WOMAN.
lie Is at Point of Death But Says It
Was an Accident.

Chicago April 14-Rufus Wright, n
millionaire and treasurer of the firm of
Morgan & Wright, bicycle tire manufac-
turers, is lying at the point of death in
a room of the Leland Hotel, shot through
the neck by a bullet from the revolver
of Mrs. Louisa Lottrldge of Pawpaw
Mich, The shooting occurred In the apart
ments occupied by the woman.
Much mystery attaches to the shooting
Both the victim and Mrs. Lottrldge per-
sist in saying it was an accident while
the police say from the location of the
wound, there is doubt as TO the truth Of
the declaration.
Wright and the woman had been drink
Ing wine and the latter was under the in
luence of the wine when arrested.
The story told by the woman is that
Wright, who had spent two hours In the
company of Mrs. Lottridge, tried TO take
a revolver from her which she had taken
from her sachel with view TO getting his
opinion on it. In the struggle following
for the possession of the weapon II was
discharged and the bullet lodged in the
right side of Wrights neck.
Mrs. l.ottridge was found in a room next
to that in which the wounded man lay
when the detectives arrived. She ap
peared to be under the influence of wine
and made no resistance when Detective
Burns tOiu neT she was uIueF HTTe1A, AT
the central police station she positively re-
fused to talk of the shooting.
Mrs. Lottridge is a widow. She is nearly
six feet tall and weighs about 1856 pounds.
She told the chief of detectives she had
been acquainted with Wright for the past
three years and that on every one of her
visits to Chicago he had called on her.
According to the statement of Manager
Dabb of the hotel, orders for wine were
plentiful after the arrival of Wright at
Mrs. Lottridge's room.
The condition of Wright at midnight
was critical.
