An editorial in the October, 1901, issue of
the Medical Brief, a journal published by
and for physicians and having the largest
circulation of any strictly professional
medical publication I'M the world, says:
There are many patients who have
nothing organically wrong with them, but
are kept in weak, anemic state by a lack
of digestive power. If we can improve di-
gestion we increase their energy, produc
tive output and sense of well being.
For this class of cases alcoholic and
strong bitters often do more harm than
good, while they temporarily stimulate
and improve the appetite, If long used
they bring on a reaction worse than the
first state. Gastric catarrh is likely to fol-
low their prolonged use from constant and
artificial congestion of the gastric mucous
membrane
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are the
proper remedy for this condition. Being
In tablet form they are not only conven-
lent to carry and take, but are necessarily
free from all alcoholics and the objec-
tionable. stimulating drugs do not enter
into their composition.

than was at first supposed Denbeigh
hall, the finest of the college buildings,
which was erected at a cost of $4,000

of the fire there had been some 1oOting

Denbeigh hall was erected in 1891.
According to location, tuition, board
and residence in this building cost the
student from $500 to $575.
President Thomas is fearful that the
offer of $25O,000 by John D. Rockefeller
conditioned on an equal amount being
raised, will be endangered as the col
lege will have hard work to recover
from the effects of the fire.

WEARING OF THE GREEN.
London Angry at Ireland Will Make
Little Display.

New York, March 1.-THE wearing
of the green" is not likely to be so pop
ular as usual in London today, says the
London correspondent of the Tribune.
The pro Boer demonstration in the
house of commons when the news of
Lord Methuen's capture was. announced
has been taken greatly to heart by Eng
lishmen. They have been almost as
much humiliated by the Irish reception
cS the disaster as by the disaster itself.
Che Irish Nationalist has written to the
Times disassociating himself from the
demonstrators, but he is not an irish
Lacquer, and his anti-Boerisn is almost
certain to cost him his seat at the next
election. A great majority of the Irish
people are strongly opposed to the Boer
war, and should gladly see it ended by
an acknowledgment of the independence
of the South African republics. Speak
ing at a Nationalist meeting at Glas-
gov last night, John Dillon, M. p, call
ed for cheers for Delarey, and the au-
dience responded heartily. English Rad
icals fail to understand this attitude.
They cannot see that what annoys Eng
land pleaSeS Ireland.

PUBLIC OWNERSHIP.
Clay Center Will Make This the Con-
test at Spring Election.

Clay Center. Kan; March IA call has
been made for citizens meeting to be
held in the National Aid hall Monday ev-
ening. The call states that all who are in
favor of the municipal ownership of pub
lie utilities are requested to be present
and place men in nomination for the coun-
ell who are in favor of the city putting
in system of sewerage. 1t at one
time thought it would be better not to call
the citizens convention until Thursday
night, the same time as the Republican
city convention, but some of the leaders
thought it better to take time by the fore
lock and hold it Monday night and either
force the Republican convention to accept
or reject municipal ownership of public
utilities" The time has arrived when
Clay Center must have a sewerage Sys-
tenn and it will be in the power of the
next council whether the city will own the
system or it become a private snap.
Among the candidates mentioned on the
Republican side are Sam Eng1er and o.
l.. Slade from the First ward; L. Nc
Chesney from the Second ward. and W.
c. Williams and Sam Langworthy from
the Third ward. On the citizens ticket
c. w. Doing, H. L. Carter and Rev. I'm
derwood are mentioned from the First: r.
o. Lewis and John Mckee from the Sec
ond and E. c. Elliott from the Third. So
far registration has been very light.
