lesser arrivals of fifty years ago. when there were but about 25,000,000 inhab- itants in the country. We now have over eighty millions. and the addition of a million immigrants is not seri- ously felt except possibly in a few cities already congested.
 Fifty years ago many Germans, Irishmen, Scandinavians and English men came to us annually. Compara- lively few come now. In the year just ended Austria-Hungary sent us 275, ,693; Italy. 221479. and Russia, 1S4, 4,S97-a total from the three countries of 682,- 069, or more than one-half of the year S immigration. The inbound movement will continue to be from the three countries many years, and 1t is re- grettable that the Italians cannot be landed where they can be taken cheap ly and quickly to cotton farms. Unless this be done the immigration prob lem will certainly become acute, and possibly steps will be taken that the entire country will after a while deep ly regret. But if all Italians are turned to the cotton fields, the north west can readily take care of the rest.

Re turning from one of her periodical trips to the French capital she encounters and wins the love of John Van Brunt, the son of a wealthy and fashionable family, who, upon calling on Julie in New York, is shocked to find that she conducts a millinery establishment MT. Mann acts the role of an old boule- vardier, Jean Poujol, father to Julie Bonbon, which gives to him exceptional chances to display his wonderful abil- ity as a character actor The New York critics were unanimous in declar- ing it his celeverest characterization The proud mother of young Van Brunt is opposed to her son marrying the pretty milliner. One scene laid in the library of the Van Brunt home during which Papa Joujol calls on the mother looking for some financial settlement in his own interest is said to be extremely funny Finally after several interest ing experiences the young folks decide to have their own way and be married in spite of parental objection.
 Scenically, the play is gorgeously mounted, and large company of capa- ble actors has been engaged to inter- pret the different roles. Among others are Miss Ida Lewis, MT Franklin Woodruff, George e.

Catarrh of the Stomach
A Pleasant, Simple, But Safe and
 Effectual Cure for It.
cosrs NOTHING To rRY.

Catarrh of the stomach has long been considered the next thing to incurable. The usual symptoms are a full or bloat ing sensation after eating, accompanied sometimes with sour or watery risings, formation of gases, causing pressure on the heart and lungs and difficult breathing, headaches; fickle appetite nervousness and general played-out, languid feeling.
 There is often a foul taste in the mouth, coated tongue, and if the in- terior of the stomach could be seen it would show a slimy, inhamed condi- ton.
 The cure for this common and obsti nate trouble is found in a treatment which causes the food to be readily. thoroughly digested before it has time to ferment and irritate the delicate mucous surfaces of the stomach. To secure a prompt and healthy digestion is the one necessary thing to do and when normal digestion is secured the catarrhal condition will have disap- peared.
 According to Dr. Harlanson, the saf- est and best treatment is to use after each meal a tablet composed of Dias- tase. Aseptic Pepsin 8 little Nux, Gold on Seal and fruit acids. These tablets can now be found at all drug stores un- der the name of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. and, not being a patent medi- cine can be used with perfect safety and assurance that healthy appetite and thorough digestion will follow their regular use after meals
 Mir. R. S. Workman, Chicago H., writes: "Catarrh is a local condition resulting from a neglected cold in the head whereby the lining membrane of the nose becomes infamed and the pois- nnous discharge therefrom, passing backward into the throat, reaches the stomach. thus producing catarrh of the stomach. Medical authorities prescribed for me for three years for catarrh of stomach without cure, but to-day I am the happiest of men after using only one box of Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets. cannot find appropriate words to ex- press my good feeling. have found flesh appetite and sound rest from their use"
 stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets is the saf- est preparation as well as the simplest and most convenient remedy for any form of indigestion, cattarh of stomach biliousness, sour stomach, heartburn and bloating after meals.
