The secret, OF a celebrated statesman

ing. Every bite of food was chewed
thirty times before swallowing The re-
suit was he naturally enjoyed good
health. Most men and women bolt their
food, and eat things that were never in

tive, have bad complexion, lose flesh,
and are irritable and nervous, and the
first thing they know they are "played

Hostetter's Stomach Bitters cures stom-
ach troubles. 1t is a purely vegetable
medicine that has stood the test of fifty
years. 1t cures cases which seem to be
hopeless. Sufferers from any disorder
of stomach, liver or bowels should try it.

DOES NOT DIsAPPOINT
The New Discovery for Catarrh
Seems to Possess Remark

A new catarrh cure has recently ap-
peared which so far as tested has been
remarkably successful in curing all
forms of catarrh whether in the head,
throat, bronchial tubes, or in stomach
and liver.
The remedy is in tablet form. pleasant

and harmless antiseptics-
The safe and effective catarrh cure
may be found at any drug store under
name of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets.
Whether the catarrh is located in the

Newly Arrived German Architect Ar

New. York. April 1S.-The achievement

pencil sketches OF the Cornelius Wander
bilt house. failed to meet with the al D.

the 1rrkVille police court today

He was drawing on a piece Of paper.
and tried to destroy it when we caught
him." explained one of the wardnIen.
well, any one might do that" said
the magistrate. There is nothing wrong
in it, Did he do anything else2"
Nothing at all"
Magistrate Zeller discharged the pris-
oner without further comment The
clerks had previously refused to Draw up
a complaint against him. The whale
difficulty seemed to have originated in
the mans ignorance Of English and
American conditions. He said today that
ne was an architect recently arrived,
and that he had made a number of
sketches Of architectural details that
struck him as beautiful and interesting.
He thought he had been guilty Of some
Offense when he was arrested by Cap
tain Lantry. and that was what caused
him to try to destroy the sketches. They
were produced in court and it was seen
that they dealt almost exclusively with
various styles of window ornamentation
and could hardly by any intelligent per
son be suspected of having any criminal
intent.

PRESIDENT HILL TALKS.
Says Majority of Published State
ments Are Erroneous.

Seattle, Wn-, April Is President J. J.
Hill of the Great Northern railroad who
is now in the city, on being asked by a
representative of the Associated Press,
if he had anything further to say touch
ing publication concerning the merging
of various railway corporations into
great syndicates said:
SAY to the Associated Press that I
have read the various statements pub
Hshed and where there is one clean cut
statement Of facts there are about a doz-
on statements Of erroneous character.
1T is true that several large railway
corporations are endeav0ring to make
closer traffic arrangements and that
such arrangements involve the Burling-
ton but up to the present time there has
been nothing consummated upon which
to base correct statements"
1t is apparent that Mr.. Hill has been
greatly annoyed by the coupling of
many railroads other than those with
which he has been dealing and he did
not hesitate to say that interviews which
had been given out by the heads of such
railroads were merely guess work and
contained little truth.
Mr. Hill leaves Seattle for st. Paul at
noon today, his visit to the coast at
this time having been more for the pur
pose of keeping his promises to take the
party with him across the continent
than anything else.

Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
GIVE PERFECT DIGESTION. SOUND
SLEEP, STRONG NERVES.
A Popular Remedy for Dyspepsia Which
Has Made Many Remarkable Cures.

A Popular Remedy for Dyspepsia Which
Has Made Many Remarkable Cures
The spring OF the year is the time for
blood purifiers 1t is the season when
we think we must dose ourselves with
sarsaparilIas, bitters and the endless list
of so-called blood purifiers and nerve
tonics.
As a matter of fact. there is but cue
possible way in which to purify the blood
and that is. through the stomach and
bowels.
Pure blood results from wholesome
food thoroughly digested. Impure blood
results from poor digestion and asslrn-
ilation When the stomach refuses to
work properly the food remains too long
a time, fermentfng, forming gases. shown
by sour bitter taste in the mouth. blOat-
ing and belching of gas. and distress AMI
discomfort generally. Poor blood, weak
nerves. sleeplessness and a general don't
care feeling can always be traced to int
perfect digestion.
This is the reason why Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets are superior to all other
spring medicines and blood purifiers
They give perfect digestion, the fool
does not lie in the stomach for hours
They give a vigorous appetite, sound
sleep, strong nerves, and wholesome food
we'll digested makes pure blood and in
no other way can the blood be purified.
The idea that a medicine in itself. Will
purify the blood when the stomach ard
digestive organs are out Of order is nom
sense. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets ara
used by thousands in preference to bit
ters,'' after dinner pills" and ~bioci
purifiers" because they remove the cause
Of the impure blood. and you do not
have to take them forever to get results
Dyspepsia is an obstinate disease to cure
and a remedy must be designed especial

Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are not
claimed to cure everything or anything
except Dyspepsia and stomach troubles

ent medicines. Anyone suffering from
