WHAT SULPHUR DOES.
For the Human Body in Health and
Disease.

The mention of sulphur will recall
to many of US the early days when our
mothers and grandmothers gave us
our daily dose of sulphur and molasseS
every spring and fall.
1t was the universal spring and fall
blood purifier" tonic and cure-all,
and mind YOU this old fashioned rem
edy was not without merit.
The idea was good, but the remedy
was crude and unpalatable, and a
large quantity had to be taken to get
any effect.
Nowadays we get all the beneficial eff
fects of sulphur in palatable, con-
centrated form, so that a single grain
is far more effective than table
spoonful OF the crude sulphur.
In recent years, research and eX-
pertinent have proven that the best
sulphur for medicinal use is that OBJ
tanned from Calcium Calcium Sui
phide) and sold in drugs stores under
the name of Stuart's Calcium Waters.
They are small chocolate coated pei
lets and contain the active medicinal
principle of sulphur in a highly con-
centrated, effective form.
Few people are aware of the value
of this form of sulphur in restoring
and maintaining bodily vigor and
health: sulphur acts directly on the
liver, and excretory organs and puri-
fies and enriches the blood by the
prompt elimination of waste ma
terial.
Our grandmothers knew this when
they dOsed us with sulphur and mo-
lasses every spring and fall, but the
crudity and impurity of ordinary flow
ers of sulphur were often worse than
the disease and cannot compare with
bo tnI I inY q,
of sulphur of which Stuart's Calcium
Waters is undoubtedly the best and
most widely used
They are the natural antidote for
liver and kidney troubles and cure
constipation and purify the blood in a
way that often surprises patient and
phvsician alike.
DR.. r. NJ Wilkins while expert
menting with sulphur remedies soon
found that the sulphur from Calcium
was superior to any other form. He
says: For liver, kidney and blood
troubles. especially when resulting
from constipation or malaria. l have
been surprised at the results obtained
from Stuart's Calcium Waters. In pa
tients suffering from bols and pim-
Piles and even deep-seated carbuncles,
have repeatedly seen them dry up
and disappear in four or five days,
leaving the skin clear and smooth. AL
though Stuart's Calcium Waters is q
proprietary article, and sold by drug
gists, and for that reason tabooed by
many physicians. yet 1 know of moth
ing so safe and reliable for consti-
patton, liver and kidney troubles and
especially in all forms of skin disease
as this remedy"
At any rate people who are tired of
pills, cathartics and so-called blood
purifiers will find in Stuart's Cal
cium Waters a far safer, more pail
atable and effective preparation.

SOUTH AFRICAN COLONIES.
Statement Showing Great Progress
Since the War
ecial Correspondence of The Star.

Special Correspondence of The Star.
LONDON. July 30. 1905.
The colonial secretary has just given out
an excellent review of the progress made
in the south African colonies since the
war.
He first paid a tribute to Dr. Jameson S
tact and judgment and referred to the
malignant gossip which has been direct
ed against the administration or the new
colonies since the end of the war.
Railways have already been built which
would stretch from London to Newcastle
said Mr.. Lyttleton. Il wish to give you
the facts of administration since the war
and to tell you what has been accomplished
in practical way. High-class stock Is be-
ing introduced into the country. irrigation
works are being pushed on. twice the num-
Der of children are now going to school and
the courts of justice are giving satisfac-
ton everywhere And yet this work and
the workers are pelted in this country by
acrimonious criticism. 1 hope we have
profited by wise criticism just as 1 hope
we have neglected malignant and mendaci-
Gus criticism.
The sum of s15,OOOOOO. added the colonial
secretary, was agreed to be paid as free
grant to the new colonies. but the sum OF
OOG6 600 had already been expended in
the work of repa tria ton and restoring dam

CHINESE RAILWAYS.
Immense Profit to Government During
Past Year.

Special Cablegfam The Star
PEklNG, August 5.-The net profits of
the Chinese imperial railways for the six
months ending March l. 1905 as shown in
figures just made public, amount to over
$1.e25O0o, and If this rate of progress is
maintained the years profits will, after pay
ing interest on the loan and providing the
stipulated sum for amortiza ton. amount to
over 100000 In view of these favorable
circumstances and conditions the Chinese
government has already commenced the
construction of the 120-mile line to Kalgan
a contract for a large portion of the rails
having been awarded to a French firm
These financial successes are disposing the
Chinese to regard railways in the most
friendly light, and possibly now fewer con-
cessions will go abroad. Yet it is believed
that with the ineradicable Manchu tenden-
Giles. the large sums of money may be en-
ployed with good effect. Experts believe
that even after the war. which has helped
the railway, the development of trade in
Manchuria will continue to such an extent
= that this abnormal profit will remain I'M
diminished. ..-
