DANGEROUS USE
OF STRONG
PURGATIVES.

Pills and bitter waters which act
quickly upon the bowels. irritate
and destroy the mucuous Innings
of the stomach and bowels. A
continued use of such remedies
inhames the stomach and bowels.
The Use of the genuine imported
Carlsbad Sprudel Water is highly
recommended because its action
is due solely to its solvent and
stimulating properties, without
irritating the stomach. Best re-
suits are obtained when small
teaspoonful of the Carlsbad Salt is
added to tumblerful of the Carls-
bad Sprudel Water and taken early
in the morning before breakfast.
Obtain the genuine imported
article only. Look for name of

The war of devastation in South

the destruction that is going on every d.v
by stomach. liver and bowel disorders.
The number of victims to constipation.
biliousness. dyspepsia. indigestion and
malaria outnumber those of war BY
many thousands. There is no reason for
this when Hostetters Stomach Bitter.;

regarded as an indication Of the per
sietency of the rebel attack.
The converted cruiser Monoma has
been found to be practically useless
owing to the bunglinE attempts to
mount heavy guns on board of her.
The Colombian government is now ne
sutiating for the purchase of the
steamer Bernard Hall.
The Daren brought 80 passengers
who were obliged to leave Colon in or
der to escape the danger and to avoid
CONSUMPTION. The British consul at CO.
lon has entered a protest against ia
maicans being compelled by the CO.
lcmbian government to fight against
the rebels.
The passengers of the Darien say
that the chances of the Liberals sue
cess arc better than ever since the
commencement of the revolution
Guards are still kept on board the
trains running between Panama and
Colon.
