GIVE YOUR STOMACH
a NICE VACATION
Don't Do II by Starving 1t Either.
Let Substitute Do the Work.


Don't Do 1t by Starving IL Either.
Let Substitute Do the Work.
The old adage, 'All work and no
play makes Jack dull boy" applies
just as we'll to the stomach, one of the
most important organs of the human
system, as it does to the man himself.
If your stomach is worn out and
rebels against being further taxed be-
yond its limit, the only sensible thing
YOU can do is to give it a rest. En-
ploy a substitute for a short time and
see If 1t w{ll not more than repay you
in results.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are a
willing and most efficient substitute.
They themselves digest every bit of
food in the stomach in just the same
way that the stomach itself would
were it well. They contain all the es-
sential elements that the gastric juice
and other digestive fluids OF the
stomach contain and actually act just
the same and do Just the same work as
the natural fluids would do, we're the
stomach well and sound. They there
fore relieve the stomach, just as one
workman relieves another, and permit
1t to rest and recuperate and regain its
normal health and strength.
This vacation" idea was suggested
by the letter Of a prominent lawyer in
Chicago. Read what he says: Il was
engaged in the most momentous un-
.dertaking Of my life in bringing about
the coalition Of certain great interests
that meant much to me as we'll as my
clients 1t was not the work OF days.
but Of months; 1 was working night
and day almost, when at a very critical
time my stomach went clea- back on
me. The undue mental strain brought
it about and hurried up what would
have happened later on.
What I ate / had to literally force
down and that was a source Of misery.
as L had a sour stomach much Of the
time. My head ached, was sluggish
and began to lose my ambition to
carry out my undertaking. 1t looked
pretty gloomy for me and I confided
my plight to one of my clients. He
had been cured by Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets and at once went down to a
drug store and brought box up to
the Office.
II had, not taken a quarter OF that
box before found that they would do
all the work my stomach ever did;
and as a rest or vacation was out OF
the question for me, I determined to
give my stomach vacation. 1 kept
right on taking the tablets and braced
up and went ahead with my work with
renewed vigor,a ate just as much as 1
ever did and carried out that under
taking to a successful issue. I feel
that I have Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
to thank for saving me the handsomest
feel ever received, as well as my repu-
tation, and, last but not least, my
stomach"
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are for
sale by all druggists at so cents a box.

MINT DIRECTOR
NOT IN ERROR
Superintendent Leach Says No
Ground Exists for Any
Criticism ON Recent Report
TELEGRAPHER AT FAULT
Statements That Estimates of
Gold and Silver Production
Are Incorrect Are Refuted

The annual report of the Director of
mated production of gold and silver of
the country for the calendar year 1903
has given rise to some comment in GER
tain quarters owing to an error that
appeared in the figures.
The error is due to the telegraphic
reports sent out and, in speaking of
the matter last evening, Superintendent
Frank A. Leach of the San Francisco
Mint said:
ticle in reference to criticism that had ap-
peared in other publications. relating to the ac-
Director OF the Mint OF the gold and silver
production OF the United States for the calen-
dar year 1903 The accuracy of Director Rob-
erts' figures questioned by reason OF the
apparent mistake in the production of gold
accredited to South Dakota. which was given
in the table of figures as being about one
third of what was anticipated and what 1t
really was. Because OF this error the accuracy
of all the other returns was questioned. and
as further evidence that the figures were un-
reliable, the critic called attention to the fact
that the units were given in precise amounts.
attention the original estimate, wherein
South Dakota credited with Sc. $50, ,3O2
value of gold, whereas the amount given in.
the table sent out by the Associated Press was
81 600 600 less. The Associated Press, I am
informed cent out a correction Of its error q
few days later, but have no recollection of
seeing the correction mentioned in any publica-
tion on TIE Pacific Coast. If the critic had
taken the trouble to foot up the column as
published the discrepancy of 81 900 600 would
have been apparent.
1t has been the custom OF the Director OF
the Mint for several years to publish for the
benefit OF the public a preliminary estimate
at the close of the calendar year of the pro-
duction of gold and silver in the United
States, and such figures have always been
given out as a preliminary estimate. The
port OF the production OF precious metals in
the United States is not published or the cor
rect figures given to the public until some
months eftervard, but experience has shown
that when the official statement Is made pub
lie the figures very closely agree with those
obtained IN making up the preliminary esti-
mate.
Superintendent Leach also explained
the system used in the mints by which
data is furnished the director for use
in making uD his annual report. He
said the entire gold product of the
country finds it's. way into the mints
and assay offices of the United States
and it's source is carefully noted.
"The reDoets of the mints vary but
little from the preliminary estimate of
Director Roberts" said superintendent
Leach, "and the fact that the final re-
port agrees so closely with the prelim-
mary estimate makes 1t certain that
the reports of the Director of the Mint
are as accurate as 1t is possible to
make them"

As Leonard Cawthorn walked down
the narrow lane under the shade OF
the overarching hedgerows. he
glanced about him with an eye Of
sober delight. The surrounding land
scape was precisely that which had
always formed the background OF his
dreams when at nighttime in his lone
Canadian ranch current OF HIS
thoughts had involuntarily set home
ward. AS he remembered II as a boy
as he had dreamed Of 1t as a man, so
the picture remained. true down to
the smallest OF its details, even TO
the wisps OF straw caught by the pro-
iecting forks in the hedgerow when
the corn-laden vain had passed.
Il was In such setting that he had
always thought OF her. Indeed, the
landscape without her would for
Leonard Cawthorn's eyes at least
have lost more than half its charm.
Presently the corn lands ceased,
and the lane broadening out ran by
the side OF undulating meadows to
the village OF Netherlands lying in
the valley below.
Nethercote farm lay back from the
roadway, just AT the edge OF the vii
Isge. AS Leonard walked up the path
which led to the house a troop OF
early memories crowded in upon him.
He had clear right to a share OF the
property after their fathers death,
hut Mark seized everything with that
grasping nature OF his and soon made
III plain to Leonard that his room In
Nethercote would be preferable to his
company. Feeling this, like sensi-
tive man he had resolved to emigrate,
and this resolve was industriously fed
by Mark, who lent him ESQ TO start
ranch life in Canada. Fortune had
smiled so pleasantly upon him that
the repayment OF that sum was now,
after fifteen years. quite an easy mat
ter
He knocked at the door, which was
presently opened by round-shoul-
dered figure OF man, who with one
hand held aloft small metal lamp
and with the other shaded his eyes
and peered at the stranger.

opened and woman entered. bearing
lamp which at once gave cheerier
aspect to the room.
She was fairly tall, apparently a
little over 80 years of age and dressed
becomingly In black. Dark brown
curls clustered above her forehead,
and her eyes as they glanced inquir-
ingly at Leonard Cawthorn had a rare
sweetness of expression.
He rose quickly as she approached
and held out his hand. "Thirss!" he
cried.

voice that was tremulous with ozciie-

glad am to see you back in Neither

Leonard. Il wanted to see the old vii

hardly worth while, for there's not
much In Nethercote to interest me
now. But there was little business
with Mark | wanted TO settle"
But what business?" she asked
eagerly. She glanced across at Mark,
who sat crouching in his chair and as
she did so her eye caught the CLINT of
gold lying on top OF the notes.
"a business which don't concern no
one but us two" growled Mark

Leonard CONTEMPORARY. THE fact
is, Thirza, owed your husband"-he
noticed that she started violently at
the word-"a little sum of money

walked over 10 Mark and pointing TO
the money on the table. said sternly:

''But why?" asked Leonard, thun-
derstruck at her strange behavior.
1T has been paid already. Let us
go away" she said to Leonard. She
moved quickly to the door. and Leon

stepbrother. left him 10 his feelings.
"Thirza," said Leonard as they
walked away from Nethercote in the
direction he had come only an hour
before. there are two things that
