Russia Takes Fleet from Toulon 10 Avoid In
teriering in Franco. italian Fetes.

Paris April An official of the for
eign Office informed a representative
of The Associated Press, today, ina
the sensation which was being created
by the departure of the Russian war
ships from ToulOn is quite artificial. 1t
was never intended that the whole
Russian squadron should remain there
during the FrancO-Italian festivities.
The Car wishes. nevertheless, that
the Russian navy should greet Presi-
dent Loubet at TOulon and it will be
represented by at least two warships.
which will stay there during the fes-
tivities, in which their officers will par
ticipate.
A Russian parsonage in this city who
was interviewed on the subject ex-
planned that had the Russian officers
and warships been in too great num-
bers they might have diverted to them
selves part of the demOnstrative
friendliness which the Italians came to
seek in France. He declared that the
Russian squadron had never intended
to take part in the fetes. He admits.
however. that the departure Of the
Russian warships was FASTENED in or
der to cut short the reports in certain
Paris papers which had been attribut-
ing undue significance to the arrival
of the Russian squadron at the pres
ent juncture.

BRAIN FOOD
Is Of Little Benefit Unless II is Oigested.

Nearly everyone will admit that as n
nation we eat too much meat and too
little of vegetables and the grains.
For business men. office men and
clerks. and in fact everyone engaged
in sedentary or indoor occupations.
grains. milk and vegetables are much
more healthful.
Only men engaged in severe out
door manual labor can live on n heavy
meat diet and continue in health.
AS a general rule. meat once day
is sufficient for all classes Of men, wo-
men and children. and grains. fruits
and vegetables should constitute the
bulk Of food eaten.
But many of the most nutritious
foods are difficult of digestion and it
il of no use to advise brain workers to
cat largely of grains and vegetables
where the digestion is too weak to as
simulate them properly.
1t is always best to get the best re-
suits from our food that some simple
and harmless digestive should be taken
after meals to assist the relaxed di-
gestive organs. and several years eX-
perience have proven Stuarts Dys-
pepsia Tablets to be very safe.

remedy which may be taken daily
