disease. Ordinary exposure results in
pneumonia. The disease seems to
deplete the vitality, undermine the
strength, and affect the balance OF the
mind. 1t is one of the sad experiences
of the grip, that the convalescent sup
posed to be rallying we'll, has been found
in condition of complete collapse.
AS result of the grip the lungs, and
other organs of respiration seem pecu-
liarly liable to be affected and consump-
ton may easily be the after consequence
of the malady. 1t needs no argument
therefore to urge the building up of the
system weakened by grip to enable it to
resist and throw off these sequent dis
eases which so frequently prove fatal.
In actual test DIR. Pierce's Golden Med
ical Discovery fias proved itself pecu
larly valuable not only i'll the quick cure
of the disease but also in rebuilding the
body which grip has undermined and in
curing diseases which are prone to fasten
on the enfeebled system. 1t strengthens
the stomach, heals the lungs, and puri-
fies the blood. 1t puts the whole body
on plane of sound and vigorous health.

FIVE PRISONERS PARoLED.
Governor Bliss Opens His Heart-But
One Goes Back.

Lansing, Mich, Dec. 1.-THE fol-
lowing paroles were granted by Gov
ernor Bliss yesterday: Thomas L..
O'Keefe, sent from Gogebic county in
December, 1900, to Marquette prison
for one and half years for robbery;
Michael Savant, sent from Gogebic
county in February. 1896, to Mar
quette for 10 years for manslaughter;
George Giles, sent from Oakland coun-
ty in May, 1898, to Ionia for seven
years for perjury; Charles S. Ray,
sent from Lenawee county in Novem-
Der, 1899, to Ionia for four years for
false pretenses, and Willis o. Hum
phrie, sent from Arenac county in
June, 1892, to Jackson for 16 years for
criminal assault.
The governor revoked the parole OF
Charles Calkins and ordered him re-
turned to prison. 6alkins was sent
from Oakland county in February,
1898, to Jackson for arson. Since he
was paroled by Governor Pngree in
November, 1900, he has been habitu-
ally intoxicated, thus persistently vio-
lating the terms of his parole.

breast. If you starve the stomach, you
starve the organs it feeds. But starva-
ton of the body can be accomplished
even where food is plentifully supplied,
because if the stomach aud other organs
Of digestion and nutrition are diseased,
then the food will not be converted into
nutrition or only partly so, and the body
inadequately nourished will begin to
grow weak. The first attempt, then, in
dealing with weak body is to nourish
it into strength. The general method of
this attempt is to try and bring the food
down to the level of the weak stomach.
This is done by the use of prepared
foods, cod liver oil, and its emulsions.
But this doesn't cure the disease of the
stomach or put the organs of nutrition
into a condition to build up the body.
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
deals directly with the stomach and
blood. 1t seeks to bring the stomach up
to the level of strong, healthful food.
when this is dose the body gains in
strength, puts on flesh, throws off dis
ease, and enters on a new life. That

even more to be dreaded than the misery
attendent on an attack of the disease
itself. The person who comes safely
through an attack of grip, man, woman,

SCHLEY HIT HARD

DEWEY UPHOLDS SCHLEY
And Issues Minority Report to That
Efect'-ln All Probability No Fur,

Official Opinions Not Forthcoming.

Washington. Dec. 14.-The most pro-
longed, interesting and important
naval tribunal ever held in this coun-
try came to a close yesterday, having
in open and secret session lasted three
months, short OF one week, when Sec
rotary Long was handed the findings
of the court of inquiry which inquired
into the conduct of Rear Admiral
Schley during the Santiago campaign.
For seven weeks the court heard testi.
mony and for fully a month it DELHI
Grated upon that mass of evidence.
finally reaching the conclusions an
nounced yesterday. The result was a
complete surprise, and it is probable
that no prophesy has approached the
truth. Instead OF one report, there are
two. Both are signed by George
Dewey, president, and by Sam c.
Lemly, as judge advocate. This is
form said to be recognized in all
courts Of inquiry, the signatures of the
other members not being necessary.
When told the report, Admiral
Schley evinced no signs of nervous
ness over the outcome. When the con-
illusions of Admiral Dewey were read
to him Admiral Schley showed his
pleasure, and it was evident from his
manner that he regarded the state
ment from Admiral Dewey as vindi-
cation of his curse.
The Majority Opinion.
The majority report condemns Ad-
miral Schley on IL points, while Ad-
miral Dewey sustains him in most par
ticulars. The majority opinion finds,
in brief, that Admiral Schley should
have proceeded with the utmost dis
patch to Cienfuegos and maintained
a close blockade; that he should have
endeavOred to have obtained informa-
ton Of the Spanish squadron there,
that he should not have made the re-
trograde movement; that he should
have obeyed the departments orders;
that he should have endeavored to
capture the Spanish vessels in San
tiago; that he did not do his utmost
to destroy the Colon; that he caused
the squadron to lose distance in the
loop of the Brooklyn; that he thereby
caused the Texas to back; that he did
injustice to HodgsOn; that his conduct
in the campaign was characterized bJ
vacillation, dilatorness and lack of en-
terprise; that his official reports of
the coal supply were misleading and
inaccurate that his conduct during
the battle was self-possessed and that
he encouraged in his own person his
subordinate officers and men.

HOW STRENGTH IS RESTORED.

Every red vein ana artery
of the body leads like
a scarlet clue back to
the stomach. If the body
is weak, therefore, we must
look to the stomach first
for the cause of weakness,
and then to the blood.
The same result of phys
ical weakness will follow
the opening of an artery,
or starvation. You may
bleed to death or starve to
death. This is so we'll un-
derstood in medical prac-
tice that the first consid-
Grafton of the physician
in investigating disease is
the condition of the stom-
ach. If the stomach is
weak the body can't be-
strong. If the stomach is
weak, that weakness will
surely find an echo in
some other organ depend
ent on the stomach for its
nutrition-such as heart,
liver, lungs, kidneys, etc.

SAMUEL G.. LEMLY,

Admiral Dewey in his report says
that the passage to Cienfuegos was
made with all dispatch; that in view
of his coal supply the blockade of CT
enfuegos was effective; that he al
lowed the Adula to enter Cienfuegos
to get information; that his passage
to Santiago was with as much dis
patch as possible, keeping the squad
ron together; that the blockade Of
Santiago was effective, and finally,
that he was the senior officer off San
tiago, in absolute command and en-.
titled to the credit due for the glori-
Gus victory which resulted in the total
destruction Of the Spanish ships.
