CLOTHING FOR THE POOR.

It is requested that all parties who have expressed their willingness to give two garments a year to the poor, or any who are willing to contribute clothing for the needy, will kindly leave the garments at the office of Chief of Police Gerald be- tween now and next Monday. This re- quest Is made as Mrs. J. M. Falkner and Mrs Frank Elmore will distribute what ever is given to those who are suffering for the want of proper clothing. It is asked that infant garments will not be
 forgotten when the bundles of clothes are
 gathered together.
 The cold wave that makes even those
 who are comfortably housed and swathed
 in warm apparel, shiver and draw nearer
 to the fire, brings forcibly to mind the
 needs of the poor-the FOOT with scarcely a roof to shelter them, no coals in the grate, and barely enough thin clothes to cover them. Cast-off garments hid den away in trunks and closets are just as warm as the most fashionable and would warm the hearts as well as the
 bodies of some poor men. women and children today shivering for the want of | them.
 MT. Gerald. the Chief of Police. who | knows so well the poor of the city and those deserving of help, has kindly con- scented to assist the ladies by advice and J in other practical ways.

The Most Serious and Fatal Diseases Arise From Indigestion.

Chronic indigestion or Dyspepsia, While ], very common trouble, has for some Etime been looked upon by able physicians sae serious thing and that no time 2shculd be lost in treating it properly at ba start. because recent researches have 3sbown that the most serious, fatal and in Icurable diseases have their origin in sim ple dyspepsia or indigestion.
 Diabetes is simply one form of indi- Oestlon. the sugar and starchy food not Seing assimilated by the digestive organs. In Rright's disease the albumen is not #nropprly assimilated.
 while consumption and dyspepsia are min diseases, and it is beyond question bat dyspepsia makes a fertile soil for Inc seeds of consumption. But the ,ro,,bIe has been to find a remedy that could he depended upon to cure dyspep- ia as it is notoriously obstinate and diff fcult to cure.
 ,rbis has been the question which has nuzzled physicians and dyspeptics alike ,ntil the question was solved three years | 20 by the appearance of new discov' erv in the medical world known as Stu arts Dyspepsia Tablets, which it wal rlsined was a certain, reliable cure fol every form of stomach trouble.

VOLCANO HEAT e,ooo DECREE:
Coins Found in St. Pierre Indicat'
 Great Temperature.

New York Times.
 One of the coins found among the ruins of St. Pierre, Martinique. by the Baron de Fontenilliat was shown yesterday to Charles Taylor. chemist in the United States Assay Office. It was a 5-franc piece. minted during the reign of Louis Philippe. and was warped and discolored. After examining it MT. Taylor said:
 This coin has been subjected to great heat. probably nearly 2,000 degrees, for several hours. The warping in my opinion, was caused by it's resting against a somewhat oval surface. The discoloration can be accounted for in several ways. It may have been caused by the action of sulphuretted hydrogen or from the flames of burning material. believe gases caused the discoloring. and probably were also the cause of many of the deaths in St. Pierre. Where coins were welded incipient melting was in pro- cess, and the heat must have been not less than 2.0o0 degrees"
 The coin examined by MT. Taylor had rot been welded. but some are known to have been found in that condition amid the ruins of St. Pierre.
