Iron Ore Statistics.

The production Of iron ore i'm tile
United States for the year 1899. &C.
cording To the annual report of tile
United States geological survey,
which has just been compiled 10y
John Birkinbine. amounted to "a
683.l73 long tons, an increase of s.
249,997 tons, or q per cent over 1893.
The records for 1898 and 1899 repre-
sent the largest output of iron ore
mined in any country in one year,
the nearest approach being IL total of
1S, O62 Gao tons mined in 1880 in Eng
land. Twen:y-four states contribute
ed to this total, Michigan leading
with 9.146,1 57 tons, and Minnesota
taking second place with S,l6l ,209
tons, Alabama occupies third place
with 1,0O9,3 tons.
The iron ores have been subdivided
into red hematites. brown hematites,
magnetic and carbonate. The red
hematite continues to be the most
prominent of the classes OF iron ore.
contributing 20.OO4, 299 long tons, or
lS1 per cent of the total for 1899. OF
the brown hematite, 2,869,7S5 long
tons were mined, or 11.63 per cent of
1.-THE total production, while the mag
netite output amounted to 1.737. 430
tons and that of the carbonate variety
Ito 81 $50 tons. There was very
general increase during the year in
the amount of the different classes of
Iron ore. due to active demand upon
local mines to supplement ore obtain
ed from the large producers. Many
Iron ore deposits which had not been
worked for years resumed operations
lin 1899, and the official reports indi-
cate a belief that the general improve
ment in this industry probably will
still further encourage the working
of deposits which during the business
depression were inactive.
| The Lake Superior region increased
its former maximum output of 49,
779, 1903 tons in 1898 to 17.S02,9 tons
In 1899. The amount mined from the
several ranges during the latter year
was as follows: Marquette, 3.734, 500:
Menominee. 1921. 42l; Gogebic. 2752,-
64S: Vermllion, 1913. 1884; Mesaba. g.
517 .305 tons. With the exception of
Gogebic. all OF the ranges mined their
maximum product in 1899.
/ The total value at the mines Of the
| iron ore produced az reported by pro-
tdslcers was S34 999,077, or S1.42 per
long ton. an increase of % cents, OF
2ssa percent, over the ayeragesapsllie
OF $l.l4 per ton as given in 1898. The
highest average value placed on iron
ore at the mines is for the state of
New Jersey, where the expense of
mining is considerable. The lowest
average cost, 80 cents per ton, was in
Texas, where portion of the iron
ore is obtained by convict labor.

ABOUT HEART DISEASE.
Ninety Per Cent of it Really Caused from
Poor Digestion.

Poor Digestion.
Real organic heart trouble is incurable
but scarcely one case in hundred is or
game.
The action of the heart and stomach
are both controlled by the same great
nerves, the sympathetic and pneumogas-
trio and when the stomach fails to prop
erly digest the food and it lies in the
stomach fermentng, gases are formed
which distend the organ causing pres
sure on the heart and lungs causing pal
pitation, irregularity and shortness of
breath.
The danger from this condition is that
the continued disturbance of the heart
sooner or later NAV cause real organic
heart trouble and in fact frequently does
SO.
Furthermore, poor digestion makes the
blood thin and watery and deficient in
red corpuscIes, and this further irritates
and weakens the heart.
The most sensible thing to do for heart
trouble is to insure the digestion and as
similation of the food.
This can be done by the regular use
after meals of some safe, pleasant and
effective digestive preparation, like Stu
arts Dyspepsia Tablets, which may be
found at most drug stores and which con-
tain the necessary digestive elements in
a pleasant. convenient form.
Thousands Of people keep well and Wig
orous by keeping their digestion perfect
by observing the rule of taking one or
two of these tablets after each meal. or
at least after each hearty meal
'Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets contain U.
S. P. pepsin, diastase from malt and other
natural digestives which act only on the
food, dgesting it perfectly and prevent
ing acidity, gases, and the many diseas-
cd conditions which accompany a weak
stomach.
When Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are
used you may know you are not taking
into the system any strong medicine or
powerful drug but simply the natural di
gestive elements which every weak
stomach lacks
So widely known and popular have these
tablets become that they are now sold
in the United States, Canada. and Great
Britain.

ORIGIN OF GLASS WINDOWS.
Not Used in Dwellings TIL Long
After Their Discovery.
(from the Cincinnati Enquirer.)

(From the Cincinnati Enquirer.)
The method of preparing glass was
known long before it was thought of max
ing windows of it, Rich people in Rome
had their windows, or the opening OF their
baths. filled with mica OF transparent
stone. 1t is supposed that glass was used
for windows during the reign OF Titus,
fragments of glass plate having been found
at Pompei, which was destroyed in his
reign. but the first certain mention OF THIS
use of glass is found in the writings OF
the third century. st. Jerome also speaks
of it as used A. ID. 422. Benedict Biscop in
troduced glass windows in Britain A. d..
67i though they may have previously
been brought in by the Romans.
The Oldest glass windows at present
existing are of the twelfth century and
are in the Church of St Denis They
appear to have been preserved as part
OF the old church, which was erected be-
fore the year 1l40 by the Abbot suser a
fayorite of Louis lie Gros. Suger had
sapphires pounded up and mixed with the
glass to give it blue tint. writer or
the period accounted it one of the most
striking instances of splendor which he
met In Vienna in 1853 that most of the
houses had glass windows. Another au-
thority, Felaben, gays that in his time
t16O0) round glass discs were set in the
windows of Italy. and We find that IN
France there were glass windows in all
the churches in the sixteenth century.
though there were few in dwelling houses.
The manufacture of window glass in this
country was begun in Criticized Friars.
