out the Chinese junks and Japanese
coasters which have been prominent
in the business, and opens the way for
American built craft. There will
doubtless be many schooners built for
this Philippine trade and Maine should
have its share of them.
The Philippine craft are the "lorcha'
and "proa'' small, slow and of medieval
design. They are the same that
Magellan saw, three centuries ago.
They cannot stand competition with
our three-mast schooners any more
than the native beasts of burden can
compete with the American locomo-
tives that will soon be laundering
through the jungles of furthest Luzon.
The American schooner in the Philip
pine bays and channels will soon be
familiar sight, and as vivid token of
cur sovereignty as the flag itself over
the gray walls of old Manila.

WHAT 1T MEANS TO YOU.
Few People Realize the Importance OF
Good Digestion Until It Is Lost,

Many people suffer from dyspepsia
and do not know it. They feel mean,
out of sorts, peevish, do not sleep well,
do not have good keen appetite. do
not have the inclination and energy for
physical or mental work they once
had. but at the same time do not feel
any particular pain or distress in the
stomach. Yet all this is the result of
poor digestion. an insidious form Of
dyspepsia which can only be cured by
a remedy specially intended to cure it
and make the digestive organs act nat
urally and properly digest the food
eaten. Btters, after dinner pills and
nerve tonics will never help the
trouble; they don't reach it. The new
medical discovery does. 1t is called
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets and is Il
specific for dyspepsia and Indigestion.
1t cures because it thoroughly digesta

stomach. whether the stomach is in
good working order or not

costing the food instead of making the
worn out stomach do all the work.
gives it a much needed rest and Il cure
of dyspepsia is the natural result.
When you are nervous, run down and
sleepleSS. don't make the common mis-
take of supposing your nervous sys-
tenn needs treatment and fill your
stomach with powerful nerve tonics
which make you feel good for little
while only to fall back farther than ev-
err.
Your nerves are all right but they
are starved, they want food.
Nourish Them with wholesome every
day food and plenty of it, well digest
cd. and you can laugh at nerve tonics
and medicine.
But the nerves will not be nourished
from a weak. abused stomach, but
when the digestion has been made per-
feet by the use of this remedy all ner-
ycus symptoms disappear.
Who ever heard of a man or woman
blessed with vigorous digestion and
good appetite being troubled with their
nerves?
Good digestion means n strong ner-
vous system, abundance Of energy and
capacity to enjoy the good things OF
life.

The Losses in the Philippines.

In one of HIS inimitable lectures that
famous son of Maine, Artemus Ward,
mentioning the number of rats in the
United States, said he was quoting
from memory" The writer of a re-
cent editorial in the Boston Herald
was evidently doing the same thing
when he declares that scores of
thousands of. American lives" have
been lost during our occupation of the
Philippines. A Boston woman
promptly writes to the Herald point
ing out the utter absurdity of such an
assertion. The actual facts are these,
as given out from the adjutant gem
erals Office on July 90, 1902:
Total number of men and Off
GERS sen: to the Philippines
to July IS, 1902, 121,93S
Died of disease. 1852
Died of accidents, III
Drovped o63
Suicides, 81
Murders, W
Total officers and men killed
and died of wounds, 1,OO5
From this list it appears that in
three years and a half of war, millions
of Filipinos, of whom Gen. Bell tells
us all were "prao tically hostile" sue
ceeded in killing in "2561 engagements
1905 men, which is less than one man
to two engagements. 1t may be in
teresting to note that this total num-
Der killed of our men in " years does
not quite equal the number of British
killed and wounded at the battle of
Bunker Hill, which was 1854. Since
July no large additions have been made
to these totals.
The "antis" have turned loose so
much passionate and poetic rhetoric
upon the matter of our losses in the
Philippines and ''militarism'' in gen.
eral that it is well to have these fig
ures handy for reference. That the
instruction was subdued and peace
and order established in those far off
islands with such small loss, is Won
derful achievement. That there are
now only 1850 American regulars in
the whole archipelago is a most elO-
quent proof Of the thorouShness with
which the work has been done there,
and complete refutation of the pet
argument of the "antiS."
