NO NEED TO ASK.
Toper's Face Tells the 0bservant Bar
keeper What He Drinks.


"The barkeeper who has been in
business long enough can tell what
man drinks by looking at his face"
said man who has spent his life mix
ing drinks for the public, to New Or
leans Times-Democrat writer.
"He can do it if he is at all observ-
ant. OF course, there are many men
who would spend a lifetime in the
business without taking any note of
the difference in skin discoloration
resulting from the long and continu-
Gus use of drinks of different kinds.
Yet it is a physical condition which
may be observed by any man who will
take the trouble to make the survey.
Men often speak of the whisky
nose, the whisky eye, the whisky face
and all that sort of thing, but they
never stop to think that whisky is not
the only thing that will bloat, mar
and discolor the features. There is
as much difference between the
brandy nose and the whisky nose as
there is between the nose of the
Cyrano de Bergerac and the nose of
a flat-faced Fijian. The whisky nose
is as red as rose. The brandy nose
is of a purplish hue. 1t rs about the
color of blue blazes. The whisky
face is different from the brandy face.
The continued excessive use of either
whisky or brandy will mark the face
with little red lines, but the general
appearance of the whisky face is un-
like that of the face of a brandy user.
Barkeepers are able to notice these
differences. They are well defined.
1t would not be noticed in the weak,
watery condition and discoloration of
the eyes. But the complexion and
other marks would be found on the
face which would indicate whether
the man was in the habit of drinking
the one kind of thing or the other.
"The same may be said about 9TH
er kinds of drinks. Take the man,
for instance, who drinks beer regu-
larly. The barkeepers can tell it by
what may be called the mellow cast of

Liked Their Cholera Medicine.

"Dipsomaniac" tells a neat story
in reference to the rapid growth of
the habit of tipping which may de-
velop in unsuspecting subjects. Two
elderly ladies were surprised by Wis
itor in the act of drinking neat
brandy. Upon his expressing some
surprise, they said that brandy had
been recommended to them as cap
ital preventive against cholera, and
that first they took it with water, and
then they took it without water, and
now they took it like water.-London

entirely different hue from either
brandy or whisky. / am sometimes
inclined to think that beer has a sort
of Matchmaking influence. / have
seen Englishmen, Frenchmen and
even Italians drink beer until they
looked like they had just come from
the fatherland. 1t is an easy thing
to tell the beer drinker just from the
appearance of his face. / may say the
same thing about the man who drinks
absinthe. The indications are prob
ably more pronounced in the case of
the man who uses absinthe than in
other cases. The things entering in
to the combination are stronger and
have a more violent effect on the hui
man system.
"But at any rate, the barkeeper
can tell just what the man is in the
habit of drinking if he will make a
study of the faces. The brandy face,
the whisky face, the beer face, the abb
sinthe face are all different, and the
lines are easily traced by the man
who will take the trouble to study
the effects of different drinks for
awhile"

THE QUEST FOR GOLD.
A Lake in Columbia to Be Drained for
Rich Treasure.

Several members of the British
parliament are interested in a syndi-
cate which has undertaken to recover
a great treasure in gold and precious
stones from the bottom of a lake in
Colombia. Nine years ago, says the
New York Mail and Express, at the
worlds fair in Chicago, were dis
played articles of household use and
ornaments of gold recovered from
this lake to the value Of $35, 900, and
photographs of others to the value of
$4,000 taken from the same place,
which are now in the possession of
the Spanish crown. The Colombian
government also has several thou
sand dollars worth of treasure trove
recovered from this lake.
The lake is near Bogota, the capital
Of Colombia, and the vast amount Of
treasure Is supposed to have been
thrown into it first as a sacrifice to
the patron deity of the Chibeha In
dians, second in power and civiliza-
tion to the Aztecs and the Peruvians,
and afterward to keep it out of the
hands of the Spanish conquerors.
Many of the gold ornaments owned
by the Spanish and Colombian gov
ernmcnts were recovered, some from
the lake, 80 years ago, by a citizen Of
Bogota, who got permission to drain
the lake to get at its treasure. lie
succeeded in lowering the waters of
the lake until considerable amount
of treasure had been exposed and
gathered. Then a mighty storm
arose, caused, the natives believed,
by the angered spirit of the old heath
en- god TO whom the Chibehas used to
sacrifice, and the engineering works
Of Bogota were swept away and the
lake filled up again.
Should the syndicate be successful
in draining the lake they will spoil
one Of the favorite diversions of the
modern Bogotan In the cool of the
evening the leisurely people of the
Colombian capital are fond of rowing
upon the treasure-bearing water.
Taking boat and affiXing a small
drag oft, they will pull leisurely
across the lake, often being rewarded
by recovering some small relic of the
golden days. The matter of draining
the lake has been talked of for several
years, but now the project has as
sumed definite shape, and work will
be begun just as soon as things have
quoted down a bit in Colombia, now
torn by revolution.
Around this lake the modern au-
thorities agree in locating that FL
dorado which so infamed the desires
of the adventures of Spain. Con
zales de Quesada was the first white
man who set foot in the city. In the
year 1885, with 166 men, he arrived at
the port of Santa Maria, sailed up the
Magdalena river to Santander, and
crossed over onto the tableland of Bo-
gotta. There he fell upon the Chibe-
has after the manner of Cortez in
Mexico, and routed them in pitched
battle.

done, then he gets in and rides down
the avenue or wherever he is going,
without any obstruction whatever TO
his view. He outwits the detectives
often by getting away for walks or
drives without their being any the
wiser or without their being able to
follow them. He doesn't tell any
body that he is going out, and the
first the secret service man around
the white house knows is when he sees
the president swinging off down the
walks on his way out Of the grounds. +"

HEARST NOT STRONG
What Leading Labor Men Here
Think Of Him as Presiden-

Hearst and Mitchell Suggested as
Democratic Leaders Mitchell
for Pres't, Says Another.

The announcement that w r. Hearst
of the New York Journal and the Chi
cago American would try to get the demo-
cratic nomination for president upon the
semi-labor ticket in 1904 does not meet
with much enthusiasm among the repre-
sentatives Of organized labor in Minne-
apolis. While the Labor Compendium,
the official organ of the Building Trades
Council Of ST. Louis, stands for his nomi
nation and says he is the logical candidate
for 1904, Minneapolis men do not feel so
certain that he would prove a popular
candidate. @@1@T-. 49, -
E. E. Stevens, editor of the Labor Union
of this city, who perhaps stands as close
to organized labor as any man in Mime
apolis, said this morning: =.
F. Il have always admired W.. r. Hearst
and the stand he has taken for the com
mon people, but had never thought of
him as a presidential possibility Since
the matter is suggested. don't know but
that he would make as good a candidate
as the democratic party could select. He
is a moneyed man himself, but he has
shown himself to be the friend of the
poor. "s
II have about arrived at the conclusion
that the mere fact that a man claims to
be the friend of organized labor, does him
but little good in an election. We have
learned that here in Minneapolis.
Hearst would make a good candidate, but
I doubt if the fact that he would claim
to stand for organized labor would do
him much good. -, 49,:

SOUR sTorlAcH (Acid Dyspepsia)
Now Recognized as the Cause Of Serious
Diseases.

Acid Dyspepsia commonly called heart
burn or sour stomach is a form of indi
gestion resulting from fermentation Of the
food The stomach being too weak to
promptly digest it, the food remains until
fermentation begins, filling the stomach
with gas and a bitter, sour, burning taste
in the mouth is often present. This con-
dition soon becomes chronic and being an
every day occurrence is given burt little
attention. Because dyspepsia is not i'm
mediately fatal, many people do nothing
for the trouble. J.. ;
It is now well known among able ply
sicians that the whole constitution vi. is
gradually undermined and weakened, that
the nerves and vital organs are seriously
affected by any form of dyspepsia. This
is plain as every organ, every nerve in
the body is nourished by the blood and
the blood is replenished from the food di-
gested. If the food is, properly digested
the blood is pure, the nerves steady, but
II supplied from a sour, fermenting, de-
caying mass the blood is vitiated, poi
soned and the result is shown in Sleep
lessness, lack of energy. poor appetite,
nervousness. Every trifleE is. magnified
and the dyspeptic sees nothing but. the
dark side Of everything: 4 = - :
Within, a recent period a remedy has
j been discovered prepared solely to cure
dyspepsia and stomach troubles. 1t is
known as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, and
i
aoribed as radical cure for every form Of
dyspepsia. ,. .t.",
III 1t is not claimed to cure anything ex-
cept dyspepsia and stomach weakness in
its various forms, but for this it has been
shown to be unequaled. The eminent
specialists. Reed and O'Leary, have re-
Gently stated that they consider Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets an unfailing specific
for disorders of the digestive organs. and
{ the remarkable cures made in cases of
long standing dyspepsia proves that this
remedy has extraordinary merit.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets have been
placed before the public and are sold by
druggists everywhere at SO cents per pack
age and while it promptly and effectually
restores a vigorous digestion, at the same
time is perfectly harmless and will not
injure the most delicate stomach, but on
the contrary, by giving perfect digestion
strengthens the stomach, improves the
appetite and makes life worth living.
