How They Do Business.

the office hours are from to II. and from
until 4. At noon every one knocks off for
a rest.
How They Do Business.
Similar hours obtain in the large business
houses. but they open early, and. with the
exception of the noon rest. remain open
until dark. All of the cities have French
sections. with stores and business establish
ments like those of Europe. The great bulk
of the trade, however. is done in bazaars by
thousands of petty merchants, who occupy
cells no larger than a good-sized piano
box, and who sit on the floor, while they
wait for their customers. Such establish
ments open shortly after daylight and close
long before nightfall. The streets where
they are located are poorly lighted. and
there is no business whatever after dark.
Openings for Uncle Sam.
Tunisia has foreign trade Of about thirty
million dollars year. but Uncle Sam gets
almost none of it. We sell but little to
Algeria, and that. notwithstanding its for
eign commerce. amounts to more than one
hundred and thirty million dollars per an
mum. This is large trade for a colonial
possession. and it ems the larger when it
is remembered that the population here is
almost all together agricultural and that it
dresses in cottons. l see some American
mea Is in the stores, and not a few of the
French esta blishments carry canned salmon.
There are windmills from Chicago scattered
here and there throughout the Tell, and
there are American sewing machines work
ing away in many of the baZaarS. AS to
the Gotten goods for these eight or ten mil
lion people, they come chiefly from France.
Germany and England. and the same is true
OF machinery. both Of which lines spe-
cialties of our own. The most of the trade
of all kinds is with France.
Our vice consul, Mr. Proux, who is one of
the bankers of Tunis and whose opinion is
of considerable value tells me that there
is an opening here for all kinds of American
machinery and tools. He says cur wind
mills have been more successful than any
of the others and that several hundred
have already been sold.
AS to American machinery and the tools
In which we are so strong elsewhere, the
people of Tunisia hardly know them. This
Is shown by our sales of 1901. when they
amounted to only about $4,000. whereas
France sent in similar goods to the amount
Of more than 100000. England Is now
selling something like $1.00o,OOO worth of
cotton goods to the Algerians. and France
about half that amount The timber of
north Africa comes chiefly from Norway.

The country is almost treeless, and all the
wood of value has to be brought in from
abroad.

DRINK PLENTY WATER
Advice ana Prescription by Eminent
Authority to Care Kidneys and Bladder.

"The people here do not drink
enough water to keep healthy" ex.
claimed well known authority. "The
numerous cases OF stomach trouble.
kidney and bladder diseases and rheu-
matism are mainly due to the fact that
the drinking OF water. natures greatest
medicine, has been neglected.
Stop loading your system with pat
ent medicines and cure-alls; but get on
the water wagon. II you are really
sick, why, OF course, take the proper
medicines-plain common vegetable
treatment, which will not shatter the
nerves or ruin the stomach"
When requested for such prescrip-
ton for the cure of rheumatism and
kidney trouble the answer was: you
must make the kidneys do their work;
they are the filters of the blood They
must be made to strain out OF the blood
the waste matter and acids that cause
rheumatism; the urine must be neut-
rallied so 1t will no longer be q source
of irritation to the bladder, and, most
Of all, you must keep these acids from
forming In the stomach. This Is the
cause Of stomach trouble and poor d.
gestion. For these conditions | would
suggest the following prescription
which is composed of only vegetable
ingredients, which can be obtained
from any good prescription pharmacy.
Any one can mix them by shaking well
