YOU WILL BE ALL
SMILES AGAIN.
Forget Your Stomach and You'll
Have a Santa Claus Face.
HOW TO DO 1T.

If there is one thing more than all
others that will give a man a forlorn
and friendless appearance and make
him morbid and cranky" and dis
agreeable, that thing is dyspepsia. 1t
makes one forget his friends and be-
come morose and irritable. He Is so
wrapped UP in his own misery that
he is inconsiderate of every one else.
Relieved of this terrible and depress-
ing ailment. he again becomes a good
fellow and a man among men.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are be-
yond question the most effective and
popular remedy ever offered to the
sufferers of this terrible disease. The
thousands and thousands of cures
they have brought about and the
enormous increase of their sales fully
attest the truth of this statement.
They are, above all, natural reme-
dy. They possess exactly the same
properties that the gastric juices and
other digestive fluids of the stomach
possess and they actually do the di-
gestive work of the stomach and en-
able that organ to rest and recuperate
and become sound and well. They
act in a mild, natural manner and
cause no disturbance in the digestive
organs. They prevent any fermen-
tation of the food which causes sour
stomach. In fact under their infiu-
ence the subject fOrgetS that he has
a stomach and his resulting cheerful
ness presents a great contrast to his
former detection.
Millions of boxes of Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets are sold annually and
they are but in the dawn of their pop
ularity. Every mail brings letters of
thanksgiving from grateful ones who
have been cured of this terrible dis
ease. The following is one of hun
dreds received each week:
Rev. j r. Hoag of Wymore, Neb.,
writes: For six years l have been
troubled with dyspepsia. Last fall
became very much alarmed at some
symptoms Of heart trouble and came
to believe there was a sympathetic re-
lation between the two diseases, or
rathe., that the stomach trouble was
the cause of the heart disturbances
/ hit upon Staurts Dyspepsia Tablets
for remedy and invested a dollar
and a half for three boxes which last
cd me three months and l can eat
any kind OF food I want and have
good, vigorous appetite. Although l
am II years old, / now feel perfectly
well and without being requested by
anyone I make this statement as a
compliment to the virtues of Stuarts
Dyspepsia Tablets.

they were the Panamaians, If that is
the right word"
"Panamaniacs," suggested Mr.. Nor
gan.
IL Makes for Peace.
Mr.. Bacon expressed the conviction
that his resolution was conservative
and urged that instead of being calcu-
lated to provoke war it was intended
for the opposite purpose. The resolu-
ton proposed only arbitration, he said.
and certainly no one could reasonably
object to any measure calculated to
prevent this giant republic from crush
ing country which is, comparatively
speaking, pigmy.
Mr.. Bacon contended that the reso-
luton could not be construed as ex-
pressive of the opinion that wrong had
been committed by the United States.
1t simply recognized a condition, he
continued, and the only possible way
was to adjudicate the controversy. He
knew that the revolution was an ac-
complished fact and that what had
been done could not be undone. This
being true, he would have the United
States do all possible to assuage the
feelings of the people of Colombia.
Mr.. Hale declared his willingness to
accept a resolution looking to an agree
ment with Colombia for compensation
for the loss of territory, with an I'M
Outstanding that the treaty should be
ratified, and Mr.. Bacon said that while
he did not think that this proposition
went far enough, he could accept 1t.
So far as the treaty was concerned he
was satisfied that the adoption of the
resolution would facilitate the ratin-
cation of the treaty.
After some further debate, in which
Messrs. Carmack, Spooner. Hale and
Plat (Connecticut) took part, further
consideration of the resolution was de-
ferred until tomorrow. and the Sem
ate adjourned.

COLOMBIA IS WARNED.
Root Advises Her Against Any Act
of Violence.


Washington, Jan. 12-Shortly after
the cabinet meeting to-day Secretary
Root issued the following statement
regarding the isthmian policy of the
administration:
THE publication in various quarters
of news indicating that the government
is preparing to send troops to the 18TH
mus to carry on military operations
against Colombia has been the source
of considerable annoyance to the ex-
ecutive and to the War Department.
No state of war exists between the two
countries no Inauguration of HOSTILE
ties is contemplated by this govern
ment. no preparation for war is being
made.
1T is not believed by the President,
nor by the Secretary of State, that any
occasion for the employment of troops
on the isthmus is likely to arise. They
have used their utmost efforts to con-
vince Gen. Reyes and the Bogota Of
ficals of the friendly intentions of this
government towards Colombia, and of
their readiness to -use, their. good offices
in the settlement of any questions in
dispute between Colombia and Pan
anna. 1t is difficult for them to believe
that the authorities in Bogota can be
so blinded by passion and prejudice
as to declare war against us, and even
II this ruinous step should be taken by
Colombia, this government would be
in no haste to respond to her challenge.
The President makes all possible al
lowances for the natural excitement in
Bogota over a state of things for which
the Colombian government is alone re-
sDonsibe and of which it was fully
forewarned. But the Colombians must
sooner or later recognize the irresist-
lble force of accomplished facts, and
the sooner this is done, the better for
all parties. We have done them no
wrong; we would like to be of service
10 them; if they are wise, they will
not put it out of our power to help
them by any act of rashness and vio-
lence."
Gen. Reyes, prior to his departure
rom Washington, in an interview with
secretary Hay, arranged for further
consldeld ton between representatives
OF the two governments of the Panama
