STARTS Dyspepsia Tablets
GIVE PERFECT DIGESTION, SOUND
SLEEP, STRONG NERVES.
A Popular Remedy for Dyspepsia
Which Has Made Many Re-
maTkzble Cures.

The spring Of the year IS the time for
blood purifiers. II is the season when we
think we must dose ourselves with sar-
saparillas, bitters and the enLess list OF
so-caued blood purifiers and nerve tonies-
As a matter Of fact there is but one
possible way in which 10 purify the blood
and that IS, through the stomach and
bowels.
Pure blood results from wholesome
food thoroughly digestec. Impure blood
results from poor digestion and assinila-
ton. When the stomach refuses TO work
properly the food remains too long a
time, fermenting, forming gases. shown
by sour bitter taste in the mouth, bloat-
ing and belching OF gas. and distress and
discomfort generally. Poor blood. weak
nerves, eeplessness and a general don't
care feeling can always be traced TO i'm
perfect digestion.
This is the reason why Stuaru's Dys-
pepsia Tablets are superior 10 all other
spring medicines and blood purifiers. They
give perfect digestion, the food does not
lie in the stomach for hours They give
q vigorous appetite. sound sleep. strong
nerves, and wholesome food well digested
makes pure blood, and in no other way
can the blood be purified. The idea that
a medicine. in itself. wiz purify the blood
when the stomach and digestive organs
are out of order is nonsense Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets are used by thousands
in preference TO Differs" after dinner
pills" and blood purifiers because they
remove the cause of the impure blood,
and you do not have 10 take them for
ever to get results. Dyspepsia is an OBJ
stinate disease to cure and a remedy
must be designed especially for it and
nothing else. Cure-ans viii not cure dys-
pepsia.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are not
claimed to cure everything or anything
except dyspepsia ana stomach troubles
and for that it stands alone among pat
ent medicines. Anyone suffering from
any trouble with their digestion viii ind
these tablets viii give immediate relief
and a permanent cure.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are pre-
pared by the F. A Stuart Co.. OF Mar
shall, Mich, and sold by druggists every
where at so cents per package. No diet
ing or change of habits is required, they
digest the food.

FINANCES OF JAPAN
Bankers, Merchants and Statesmen
Fear a serious Crisis.


Washington, Apri 1.-the financial
condition Of Japan at present is far from
encouraging and the bankers and states
men are exerbng every effort to avert
pending panic. This statement is con-
veyed to the state department in COM
munication from United states Consul
General Bellows at Yokohama. The sit
uation as analysed by the shrewdest fl
nanciers and statisticians of the empire,
show that the Chinese indemnity secured
at the close of the Japan-Chinese war,
together with the large national loans,
led to the exploiting Of many public and
private undertakings, which caused
money to be unusually plentiful among
the coolie or laboring classes. This in
duced extravaganJ methods Of living. and
is assigned as potent factor liz the large
increase Of imports. The amount Of in
demnity paid by China proved made
quate for the enterprises projected and
many millions were diverted from the
customary channels Of trade to carry
forward the undertakings referred TO.
The interruption Of the Chinese trade
brought a falling of in exports also, dur
ing the past year. In 1900 the relation
Of Japan's exports 10 her imports stood

NON-MILlTARY CLAIMS

Washington. April l6.-In the question
of Chinese indemnities which is going on
at Pekin and also at the various for
eign capitals, il has been developed that
the French government is DESTROYS of
looking after not only those claims Of a
distinctly national character, relating TO
France and Erench subjects. but also the
extensive class of claims Of Catholic in
situations and missionaries. In making
known this desire the French authorities
have made il clear that they look upon
the non-military claims as quite as
worthy of consideration as those con-
nected with the equipment Of the misi-
tary expedition. The extent OF those de-
predauons TO Catholic persons AID prop

Wire Grass and Its Uses.

We have an inquiry from Oregon
for some further information as to
the commercial uses of wire grass.
The grass referred to is the tough
and why product of the great peat
sloughs of the northwest, a grass
which has no value as fodder and
which is rarely ever cut for hay. This
grass is made up of a tough and NIB
rous growth, which was found few
years ago to have great variety OF
uses when properly manipulated and
manufactured. From it is now made
a very serviceable Irvine and cordage;
it is woven into durable mating OF
a hundred kinds; it is used for many
forms of wicker work, such as bask-
cts. baby cabs, summer chairs and
an almost endless variety OF things
which enter into daily use. We are
not advised as to whether the wire
grass of the Pacific coast is of the
same kind as that which is common
to the northwest. This grass, here.
tofore worthless, has, because of its
new uses, from being the most utter
ly worthless product of the country
where it is found, become one of the
most valuable and commands a high
price when cut at the proper season
and baled for shipment--about $12 tc
SIS per ton, we are told. If our Ore
gon friend will send us a specimen
of the grass which is there found we
will be pleased to further advise him

Where 70 Go for a Farm.

We are asked where young man
with cash capital of $1,000 had bet
ter go to get hold of piece of good
cheap land out of which to make a
farm. Everything depends upon the
particular kind of farming he wishes
to engage in. If he is not afraid OF
plenty of hard work and is willing
to work and wait for fifteen years, he
he work out good arm from the
cheap timber slashes of northern and
central Minnesota, being sure to see
that he gets clay or a loan soil
and not sand bed; or he may go
onto the. range lands of western
South or North Dakota, and live the
hie of recluse for ten years and
keep cattle and at the end of that
time be in shape to buy well-im-
proved farm in the well-tilled section
further east; or, if he takes to horti-
culture, he can go to the coast and
in Oregon or Washington and
some parts of Idaho, raise the best
fruit and enjoy the best climate on
earth; or he can buy an eighty acre
farm in the corn belt and keep cows

Russian Settlers in North Dakota.

The writer spent day or sc
among the Russian settlers on the
range lands of western North Da.
kota recently. These people are OF
of German origin and speak the Ger
man and not the Russian language
and represent class Of Russian cit
liens which the government of that
country has been glad to get rid of.
These settlers are scattered over this
range country and live a primitive
sort of life, caring for their fiocks
and herds which find living tire year
round upon the nutritious buffalo
grass which there abounds. These
people make sun-dried brick ovt of
the clay dug out of the sl~ughs
which they mix with straw after the
manner of the Egyptians of old and
with these brick build their houses
and barns for their stock. Being
far removed from fuel supply, they
utilize the manure from their stock
yards and around each hons stead
may be seen this sort of fuel corded
up in piles for use during the winter.
But little land is farmed and their
principal source of revenue is the
stock which they keep.

The magnificent forests of North
America are about done for and it is
interesting to inquire what the coun-
try has to show for them? Their e
are the improved farms which have
taken their place for one thing, the
wooden buildings of town and coun-
try, the ties of 1880 miles of rail-
road and vast pile of ashes. The
wreck of the forests is complete and
absolute, for no one is planting trees
for future use and so necessity will
compel the substitution of steel, clay
and fibre in it's varied forms for wood
in all mechanical lines, and coal, oil
and peat for it as fuel.

we travelled lately for fifty miles
through one of the timber slashings
of northern Minnesota country
from which the timber had been re-
moved and over which the forest fires
have run-and find that in the Sec
ton seen the soil is good and is pro-
ducing large growth of the native
grasses. This land is for sale at very
low prices and we are satisfied that
If a man would take this land and
stock it with sheep and cattle, not
attempting to clear up any large
amount of it, he would in very few
years be in possession of very valua-

No more beautiful sight in growing
cereal crops can be found anywhere
than the vast wheat fields of the
North Dakota country, the home of
the famous No. 1. hard wheat. Still,
this kind of farming has many draw
backs; the work of the entire year is
crowded into space of four months;
rich though the soil now is, there
must come time when the soil will
become robbed of its fertility and IT
will be hard to raise good crops; then
the work is nearly all done upon an
extensive scale and this means large
farms, a thinly settled community,
and poor schools and social advan.
tages.

There is much summer following
done in the wheat country OF the Da-
kotas and Manitoba, this being the
only method used to rest the land
and insure crop. OF late 1T has
been discovered that such fallow
fields, if planted to corn, even as far
north as latitude AZ and AS where the
corn has a nip and tuck race with
spring and early fall frosts. will the
following year produce much better
crop of wheat than if land is allowed
to lay idle and SO it comes that the
area of corn culture is being greatly
extended in that north country, the
earliest known varieties being planted
and at least a good crop of fodder
raised and sometimes quite a crop OF
corn.

Windbreaks.

There is no one thing of more i'm
portance to the man who locates on
a prairie farm than the securing
of good substantial windbreak at
the earliest opportunity. Wind is all
right in ITS place, filing the sails of
a ship, whirling the windmill and
drying up the mud, but to have it
working it's own sweet way in barn

In a certain western county there
is little community OF farmers who
for wears have made practice of
holding neighborhood gatherings
once in two weeks; in the winter at
the home of some member and in
summer a picnic affair in the woods.
where simple refreshments were
served and regular program Of
music and discussion of farm topics is
carried through to very great bene-
fit of that community, not only in an
agricultural sense, but also in So
cial way. There may be found well
kept farms, good stock, improved
highways, and degree of intellect
ual culture and refinement which is
entirely possible as associated with
country living.
