The new enterprise., 1905-04-06

Prussia has the race suicide question
more acutely than the United States.
The marriage rate is not lower, but
the birth-rate has diminished almost
one-half in thirty years. In Berlin the
number Of births per thousand of popu-
lation has steadily fallen from forty
five in 1875 to twenty-eight. In all
the Prussian cities there has been a
decrease in the birth-rate-the larger
the city the greater the percentage Of
decrease.

Bad to Give the Pee to the Bride.

A young couple who desired to sur.
round their nuptlals with additional
glamour were married In the MayOr's
ONCE a few days ago. After the Mayor
had pronounced the benedietion the
happy groom passed over a brand.new
fve-dollar note as a fee. His Honor
gracefully transferred the note to the
bride with the suggestion that 1t be
applied 10 the start in housekeeping
The couple departed In such bllssful
mood that the Mayor was all smiles
as he resumed his duties. Yesterday
the bride called wearing a gloomy air.
What's the troubleT' asked the Mayor,
who remembered her. II wish you had
taken that 50. Before we were out
Of the City Hall my husband wanted
1t back, I wouldn't give It TO him, and
we fought over 1t until now we're
separated. II anybody else comes along
to be married and offers you money,
take IL, Maybe II will save trouble
afterward. ."-PhiladeIphia Record.

Officials of this government and
Ambassador Durand are planning to
do the prince great honor on the &C.
casion of his three days visit here
While pains have been taken to give
no official color to Prince Louis visit

will be the presentation by the prince

While the prince is being entertained

With reference to the last regula-
ton the secretary says it is not to pre-
vent officers and employees of the de-
partment from performing proper
work outside of Office hours which
does not interfere with work for the
department but it is designed to af-
ford the secretary an opportunity to
pass upon the kind and quantity of
outside work which may be permitted
in order that such work shall not i'm

employees to the government.

SETTLE INDIAN BOUNDARY.
Proposals Being Made Between Eng
land and Russia.

st. Petersburg, Nov. 6.-Lord Lans-
downe suggested to Count Benken-
dorff, the Russian ambassador to
Great Britain the desirability of Great
Britain and Russia settling their diff
ferences covering outstanding ques-
lions relating to the Indian frontier,
and Count Iamsdorff and Sir Charles
Hardings. the British ambassador to
Russia, also discussed the subject
without formally committing them
selves. Russia finally suggested that
Great Britain should formulate and
submit propositions as a basis for
negotiations and there the matter
rests
1t is presumed that Mr.. Hardinge,
while in London, will confer with
Lord Lansdowne on this matter and
will be prepared on his return to Rus
STA to offer complete plans of settle
ment.

CONSTIPATION
AND STOMACH TROUBLE
CAN Be CURED
J. s. Jansen, President of the
Milwaukee Retail Drug
gists' Association,
Talks on the Dangers Of Constipation
and Stomach Trouble.

''Have you noticed the large number Of cases
of typhoid fever lately?" said Mr.. j. 5. Jansen
to Daily News representative. ITO my notion
typhoid fever, malarial fever. appendicitis and
many kindred complaints are the result OF
constipation, which in many cases is allowed
by the patient to run along without proper
treatment. You will remember when you were
O child and the doctor was called, his first pre-
scription was dose OF castor oil ] All
physicians know the value of having the bowels
thoroughly opened. People, when they grow
up, allow constipation TO become chronic
through lack OF attention. Constipation is the
failure OF the bowels to carry on the und1gested
food, which collects in the alimentary canal
and there decays, generating poisonous disease
germs. These germs find their way into the
blood by means Of which they are carried to
every tissue. The fever thus created affects
not only the lungs kidneys, stomach. heart and
nervous system, but in fact any organ OF the
body is liable to break down as result. The
blood becomes thin and watery. The sufferer
loses in flesh and strength. Castor oil and pills
will not cure an affiiction like this. Something
more than a laxative is needed. There are
many physics on the marketand we sell great
many, having probably the most popular store
OF the kind in the city. do not often talk about
manufactured medicine. but the high esteem in
which Mull's Grape Tonic is held by the drug
and medical fraternities has impressed me and
know from actual experience right here in our
store that Mull's Grape Tonic cures constipa-
ton and stomach trouble positively and per-
manently. Mull's Grape Tonic is not physic,
but 1t Immediately clears the bowels Of the
decaying food because of the peculiarly
strengthening effects 1t exerts over the organs
OF the digestive system As tonic it Is superior
to the nauseating cod liver oil compounds. 1t
builds flesh faster and creates strength quicker
than any other preparation known to medical
science The ingredients are positively harm
less, made mainly from crushed grapes and
fruits. Although full bottle might be taken at
once, no Inconvenience would result. I only
wish that people paid more attention to these
little details, which in themselves in the begin
ming are of so slight importance, but which
grow in magnitude until the most serious
trouble and some deadly disease fastens itself
on the constitution. There is really nothing
easier 70 take than Mulls Grape Tonic hope
you, through the influence of your paper, can
bring the readers to a sense Of the gravity OF
allowing constipation TO become chronic"

Replying to the charge that certain
popular proprietary medicines contain
narcotic drugs, an authority says:
Some years ago one of the leading
pharmacists of America, in connection
with some official work. undertook to
ascertain, by an elaborate inquiry in
representative cities of the country,
what percentage of physicians pre-
scriptions contained narcotic drug
of some kind. Out of 100000 repre-
sentative prescriptions, dispensed in
drug stores in all parts of the United
States, it was found that 20 per cent
contained opium or some one of its
preparations.
Proprietary medicines are almost
invariably accompanied by the most
detailed and specific directions for use,
while the directions accompanying
physicians prescriptions are generally
very brief and sometimes illegible. 1t
is also true that but moderate pro
portion of proprietary medicines con-
tain any poison or narcotic. and, when
they do, it is generally in such small
quantities or so protected by accom-
panying antidotes, as to carry with it
no danger whatever"

MANY JEWS ARE MURDERED.
It is Estimated That in the Fifty Lead

Thousand Have Been Killed and

st. Petersburg, Nov. 6.-Dispatches
from Russia are very meagre owing to
the disturbed condition of the coun-
try. The situation in st. Petersburg,
where order is maintained By show
OF armed force, remains critical,
though improvement is shown in the
resumption of operations by the
electric lighting plants. Communica-
lions by rail from the frontier towns
bring reports of conflicts in which the
Jews appear to be the principal suf-
ferers. In Kieff the loss of life and
property has been very great. In
Theodesia, Kostruma and Saratoff the
disorders have been most serious.
There is an unconfirmed report that
Kishineff has been totally destroyed
by fire.

correspondents in Odessa report diff
Guilty attending the reports, and they

tinued seriousness of the situation
throughout Russia, especially the

dent of the council of ministers, who
drew up report in which the follow

tence or long Imprisonment might
deprive the world and Russia of
creative genius from whom great
things may yet be expected. The
unprecedented sympathy of which he
is the object is proof OF the attention
with which the intellectual world fol-
lows the development of Russia, and

ing Mormonism, and is on the United

under advisement the case of Reel
Smoot. Mr.. Dubois says: Il believe
that the senate will exclude Senator
Smoot at this session. 1t will be
great victory for the 'anti-Mormon
forces of our Western states. They
need the encouragement, for it has
been a bitter and relentless fight.
That power of the Mormon church
cannot be understood by the people
who have not lived either in Utah or
Idaho. They have clearly a third of
the people, and to uproot them is diff
cult. The unseating of Smoot will be
a long step forward"
