Mrs. III. WriQhf

Mrs. Pinlxham claims that there is a
kind of dyspepsia that is caused by a
arrangement of the female organism,
and which, while it causes a disturb
ance similar to ordinary Indigestion,
cannot be relieved without medicine
which not only acts as a stomach tonic
but has peculiar uterine-tonic effects
also.
AS proof of this theory we call at
tention to the case of Mrs. Maggie
Wright, Brooklyn, N. Y, who was
completely cured by Lydia +. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound after every
thing else had failed. She writes:
For two years L suffered with dyspepsia
which so degenerated my entire system that

GREAT work
or MUCU-T0NE'
How Rexall Catarrh Cure Won Ous
Endorsement Strictly On Its Merits

When we first heard of Rexall Mucu-
Tone we were not particularly interested
In it. We knew every Rexall remedy
was made of the best materials and by
experienced chemists and pharmacists,
and we were satisfied that when the
Rcxall Company produced catarrh
cure it would be thoroughly meritorious.
But we were not at all excited" about it.
When we saw the formula it struck us
as something new and very good, so that
when some of the first bottles of
MucuTone arrived we unhcsitatngly
recommended IL to several chronic suffer-
ers from catarrh-customer of ours.
Within few weeks the reports began
to come in and as we heard of the prompt
cure of case after case that had stubborn
ly resisted every other medicine and
treatment, our interest grew until now
we are honestly and earnestly enthusiasts
tic about this splendid remedy.
Mucu-Tone is tic cure for catarrh and
If you could stand in our store day after
day and hear the grateful words of suffer-
ers who have been res tored to health by
it, you would grow just as confident as
we are.

MUST COMPLY WITH LAW.
Internal Revenue Officers After Saloon
Men Who Refill Bottles.

Internal revenue officers are still engaged
In the Investigations for the purpose OF
ascertaIning If the law respecting the re-
filling of BOTTLES of bonded goods by sa-
Ioon keepers is being violated. Despite
the fact that several dealers have found
the practice an expensive one, 1t Is salo'
the practice has by no means stopped.
"People are entitled to pure whisky as
much as they are to pure articles or FOOD,
said the representative of a liquor firm to
a Star reporter land while some of the
whisky used for reflling the bottles Is or
good quality the law requires that 1t must
not be put up in such a manner. When
bottle is filled In bonded warehouse and
emptied by dealer II is supposed to re-
main empty unless 1t gets back to the
warehouse, but people will take the chances
and they must also expect to pay the
penalty
Dealers who are caught violating the
provisions of the law referred to, 1t Is
stated. offer some amusing explanations
1t is seldom however, that an explanation
Is accepted by the officers, and the dealer
who escapes the penalty may consider HIM
self exceedingly fortunate
There was a case one day last week
in which a local saloon keeper was caught
with a lower standard of whisky In his
bottle than the shippers had been in the
told, land he had to make an explanation.
His explanation was that one day his baby
was sick and his wife wanted to make the
little one toddy. She made more teddy
than she wanted for the infant and was
careless enough to pour back into the bot
tie what was left. Do you think the excuse
would go? Certainly not. The dealer sent
the revenue officers sos by way of a COM
promise. and was glad to get out OF the
difficulty with that amount"

IMPROPER CUSTOM.
Steamboat Inspectors Called Down by
Department

The Department OF Commerce and Labor
has issued an order to steamboat inspectors
stopping the improper custom of per-
hitting the navigation of vessels pending
the making of repairs ordered by the in
is forbidden until after the issuance of a
formal new certificate showing the vessel to
be in satisfactory condition.
In circular letter to each OF the ten
supervising inspectors the department calls
attention to the fact that no Inspector has
any power TO allow a vessel to navigate
without having her certificate of inspection
on board. The department calls attention
also to the fact that there is no reasonable
occasion for any such irregular action. in
asmuch as vessels are allowed by the pres
ent rules to apply for inspection sixty days
before the expiration of their current cerl-
flcate, and 1t is thus easily possible for the
vessel to have the inspection made at a SUI
ficient time before the expiration of her cur
rent certificate to cover all possible delay
in the making of repairs and additions and
In the forwarding OF the certificate through
the collector of customs.
The department emphasizes the fact that
the requirement of a certificate OF lnspec-
ton Is the basis for the inspection law, ana
that no permission. written or verbal, on
the part of the inspectors can take It's
place, and that any continuance or this Gus
tom by the inspectors VIII be grounds for
prompt and severe action by the depart
ment both as regards the inspectors and as
regards the vessel.
bring this matter to the attention OF the
inspectors under them, and also to the at
tention of masters and owners OF vessels In
their districts.

Therefore the new form Of information.

accommodate four people, who can do their

moderate In the center of the Tent city
are several grocery and other supply

other facilities for amusement
Band concerts are given every night and
light opera, vaudeville programs. lectures
and other entertainments are constantly
going on in the theater. There are bathing
houses with swimming pools and good
surf bathing, and an ancient ferry boat has
been converted into a club house and ca

there is long row of huts built of palm
leaves like those occupied by naked hea-
then in the South Sea Islands. They are

to the more prosaic tents.

a site which belonged to his mother and
which she purchased. it is claimed, with
the royalty on the sales of General Grants
memoirs l rather skeptical on that
subject. because 1 have seen and heard of
so many things that were paid for with
those funds. The hotel is to be 200x200
feet in size. nine stories high, and have
224 lodging rooms. 1t is intended to at
tract tourists and winter residents, and
will be great thing for San Diego; for
this city has never had a proper hotel. It
has every other attraction.
This reminds me of story I heard the
other day about new hotel that is being
built at Claremont, Cal. That town also
has many attractions, but has always been
without suitable hotel accommoda lions,
and the men folks were neither wise
enough nor enterprising enough to pro-
vide them. So the women organized q
company and are now erecting what will
be known as "Ye College Inn" 1t will
accommodate $50 guests and the men. of
course. will reap the advantage
