How te Get the Better Of This Cause

A scientific writer upon stomach

from indigestion-an and who has not?-
your imagination has probably pic
tured a ferocious little imp dancing in
the pit of your stomach. causing that
organ to neglect all of its duties, with
a result that is not only painful but
fills you with misery from day to day. F"
This writer certainly ad suffered
with Indigestion, for there is no more
disagreeable, nerye-racking and sick
all-over disease than indigestion.
A great many people who have been
treated for years for disease of the
heart, liver or kidneys, when they used
Miona stomach tablets found that not
only did Mona cure the stomach dis
order, but it made them we'll all over
and the other troubles were also cured.
II you suffer with nervousness, Sleep

headache, pains in the back or sides,
get SOC box of Mi-o-na from the Red
Cross Pharmacy and aake one of the
little tablets before each meal. 1t will
do you world of good and you will
soon be well and free from indigestion
and its symptoms. The Red Cross
Pharmacy has so much faith in this
medicine that they give an absolute

Any Disease Epidemic or Otherwise 70
Which He or She May be Exposed

There are two ways to remove consti-
patton; the wrong way is to drench the
bowels with powerful, gripping, drastic
cathartic that injuries the coating of the
bowel channels and produces an early
return Of the trouble in more chronic
form. The right way is to use natural,
easy and mild laxative that tones up and
strengthens the bowels and leaves a
healthful influence behind it. Prickly

as thoroughly as the harsher cathartics,
and combines all the tonic and strength

Dissertation of City.

New York. Aug, l7.-Valpariaso is a
fortified seaport of Chile, and the
most important commercial town OF
the Western coast of South America.
1t has a population of about 1900
1t is the capital of the province of
the same name and is situated on a
large bay in the Pacific Ocean IS miles
west northwest of Santiago, with
which it is connected by rail.
The Bay of Valparaiso, which is
well sheltered on three sides, is bound
ed by ranges of hills rising to from
! 900 to 1,700 feet high, on the slopes
of which a considerable of Valparaiso
is built. On the south side of the bay
are the spacious suburbs of Neuvo
Malecom and Gran Aveida, from
which passes out one of the finest Of
the throughfares Of Valparaiso, the
Avendo de las Delicias.
The lower central portion of the
city is called the Almendral, having
regular and attractive streets and con-
tanning the principal business houses,
the park, the Plaza Victoria and the
National Theater.
To the northwest of this city, in
the quarter of the city known as the,
Puerto Tor Port), in which are situated
the greater number of the public build
ings and the vast warehouses which
line the quays and docks. In this por-
tion of the city, however, narrow and
crooked streets are still a feature, but
the newer sections Of Valparaiso have
an attractive, modern appearance,
the buildings of the business streets
being massively built. Among the
Comments in Valparaiso are those
of Columbus, Wheelwright( who estab-
lished steam navigation on the Chill
can coast), Admiral Pratt and Tomas
Cochrane, organizer of the Chilean
navy. The city has various academic
and collegiate institutions, naval
school for marines, museum of Natural
History, photographic Bureau, ETC.,
and its industrial establishments COM
prise foundries, railroad and machine
shops, sugar refineries, breweries, dis
tillerles, large bottling works and fac
tories of all kinds. Elevators connect
the lower parts of the city with the
villa section on the heights.
The Port Of Valparaiso is the ter
minus of impor tant lines Of steamers
for Europe by way Of the Straits of
Magellan and Panama, and is the cen
ter Of the South American Coasting
Services. 1t codtains a numerous
foreign colonys, composed chiefly OF
British, German and French mer-
chants. There is a customhouse wharf,
of which steamers of ordi-
nary tonnage can moor, though most of
the loading is done by lighters from
quay surrounding the town. The har-
Dor is defended Ly modern well-mount-
ed batteries. Severe storms and a
tidal wave at Valparaiso, June 30.
1899, wrecked the railroad and did
great damage to the city.

which often exceeds ten thousand, includes
artists, musicians. architects and sculptors.

to be found in Its lecture rooms. There are

within these limitations the right of
review by the courts ought not to be denied.
and II 1t does not already exist 1t ought TO
be conferred He went on to say that the
courts already have without further Iegis-
lation, all the authority and power over
this subject which they can exercise with
out substituting their judgment for that of
Congress I'm matter intrusted by the Con-
stltutfon to the exclusive judgment of Con-

After a presentation of this legal phase
of the case, Mr.. Simmons said:
MY chief apprehension concerning this
measure Is that while the courts have not
the constitutional right, as 1 see It. to re-
view lawful rate fixed and ordered by the
commission, and while this bill, by not con-
ferring it. denies to them the right, still.
IN actual practice, by means of interlocu-
tory orders based upon ex parte showings
of unreasonableness, these orders may be
suspended pending litigation. and in this
way many unreviewable, as we'll as review
able orders of the commission will be held
In allegiance until final decree.
TT Is probable that the only escape from
this danger will be found in taking from
the courts the right to suspend the orders
Congress can do this. would 1t be right to
do H-would 1t be good policy to do It?
Whether good or bad policy, II 1t would be
wrong or unjust to do 1t. we cannot. as In
dividuaIs. or as a nation. afford to do It
for mere profits sake" Yet, he had he
said reluctantly reached the conclusion
that the power OF suspension should be EN-
Mr.. Simmons closed with an argument in
support of the constitutfonality of the pro-
posed law. on which point he declared he
had no DOUBTS.
