able Disturbing Officer to Hand
Out $1O,57O.

sioners No cut-rate pensions today.
The police have gathered up enough rich

proper proportion. SO Louis Wilson. dis
bursting officer. paid out $1O57O today on

This was happy day, indeed, for the
pensioners. Nearly every one who called
for q check at the District building said
he was sure this would be another rate
month. Last month. it will be remem-
bered, the police pensioners were paid SO
cents on the dollar and the f1remen were
paid 90 cents instead of a dollar.
1t was promised the pensioners at that
time that when the Police Court fines or
other sources OF revenue warranted 1t
the deficit would be made up. II the
criminals take sentences instead of pay
ing fines there is. Of course, the posi-
bi{ity that last months bargain price
pensions will never be made worth more

How To Avoid It and Escape a

A SIMPLE METHOD THAT IS ALWAYS Eff
OACIOUS. TRIAL PACKAGE FREE.
1t has only been 4 few years since 1t was dis.
covered that a surgical operation would cure ap
pendicitis In fact, 1t has been but q short time
since the disease was discovered and named.
Whenever there is an innamed condition Of the
appendix, caused by impacted faces In the small
cavity opening into the intestine. you then have
appendicitis.
The older doctors, used to call this inhamma
ton Of the bowels. and were puzzled to know
the cause.
Even now. with all the knowledge we have OF
the disease, no medical man can tell you why We
should have an appendix, why We find 1t where
1t is. or what are its functions. IL It has any.
The disease for which the operation is a cure
is usually caused by indigestion, and in many
cases follows a large and indigestible meal
Physicians have until recently recommended an
operation, but now, 1T is known that it IL
caused by Indigestion, or dyspepsia, 4 cure with
out an operation is assured.
Where the patient is treated with Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets. the unhealthy conditions pre-
vailing rapidly disappear. the stomach and in
testines are placed back in their normal condi
ton, every organ Of the body operates as II
should and the Inflammation is reduced and the
operation is avoided.
Conscientious physicians, who are looking after
the best interests Of their patients will always
keep a supply Of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
handy in their office. where in cases Of sudden
attacks Of Indigestion they can relieve the pa
tient at once.
where the stomach and bowels were in a healthy
condition and properly digested the food from
meal to meal.
No better advice can be given to any one who
has attacks OF Indigestion, or who has been
threatened with appendicitis. than to tell him
to 20 to the drug store, pay 80 cents. and take
home package Of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.

MUST FORT|FY ITSELF
OPINION OF EXPERTS WHO IN
SPECIFIED PANAMA CANAL.
Expenses of Defense Probably Will
Be Met by Issue of
Bonds.

The Panama canal win have to pay
the expense Of its own fertilization. This
appears to be the opinion of the van
guard of the board of army experts
which has just arrived in Washington
from Panama, after a careful examina-
ton of the line of the canal, with spe-
cial reference to the selection Of sites
for the forts and the determination of
the extent of the armament required.
The act of 1902, although much amended
by subsequent legislation, would seem to
carry that inference, and consequently
the cost Of fertilization probably will be
met by the issue of Panama canal bonds.
1t is impossible at, present to state the
cost of this work. In the first place.
while the commission has tentatively Sc
lected the sites for the defenses at both
entrances Of the canal and at points
along the line in the interior where 1t Is
exposed to destructive attacks, such
as the Gatum dam and the great Mia
flores locks, much of this land belongs
to private parties, and its value must be
assessed before 1t can be acquired.
Heavy Ordnance Required.
Gen. Murray, chief of artillery; Gen.
Crozier, chief of ordnance; Gen. Mar
shall. chief of engineers, and Capt. En-
brick, an expert artillery officer, are
among those who returned to Washing
ton, and as soon as other members OF
the commission, now on the isthmus.
have returned to this city an effort will
be made to prepare the report showing
just what is needed to provide for the
complete defense of the canal.
Much heavy ordnance, some OF 1t COM
posed of 14-inch guns. probably will be
required, and as it takes a long time to
make these big guns and transport them
to the isthmus, put them in place and
erect defensive earthworks and concrete
structures, it will be necessary to
hasten the project in order to insure its
completion by the date the canal will be
opened, in 1914 or 1915.

Money Sent Abroad.

The value Of the 2,0S9, go international

six months of the fiscal year 1910 amount
ed to S45,6J6, 315. 20. while the 2OO.517 in
coming International orders totaled but
81, 779, 234.99 The balance of $4O,S71,-
OSO71 against the United States is over
81 per cent in excess of the balance for
the same period of the preceding fscai
year. OF this immense sum over 10 per
cent was distributed to five countries of
Europe, as follows: Italy. $l1,2700Oo;
Great Britain, $685.. 900: Hungary. ST.
OOOO; Austria, $4,O2O,OOO. and Russia,
S., 7S5, 900.
AS recently as 1900 the total annual bal
ance against the United States was less
than $5,6OO,OOO. The enormous increase
in the space of ten years is one of the
noteworthy features Of the international
money order service.

cur IN POSTAL DEFICIT
LAST QUARTER OF 1909 SHOWED
A HEALTHFUL SURPLUS.
Largest Three Months Business in
History Of the Post Office
Department.

The Post Office Department earned a
surplus Of SILL, $500 for the quarter
covering the months of October, Novem-
Der and December, 1909, as shown by the
report of Merritt o. Chance. the auditor
for the Post Office Department, in his
quarterly financial statement to the Sec
rotary Of the Treasury and the Postmas-
ter General. This was the largest quar-
ter's business in the history of the Post
ONCE Department. For the same months
in 1903 the Post Office Department had a
deficit of 81. 4s1. 977.92. The difference be-
tween corresponding quarters of the two
years. therefore, is 3.593. 334.61.
This excellent showing has brought the
postal deficit for the first half of the ifs
cal year, which ends June 80, 1910. down
to $4,O72,241.3O. as against deficit OF
$40, 2S4. 1861 for the same period year
ago. The indications are that the postal
deficit for this fiscal year, instead of being
seventeen millions, as was the case last
year, will fall below ten millions

THE CAUSE OF COLDS.

Good Advice Regarding the
Prevention of Coughs and
Colds.
If people would only fortify
and strengthen the system, the
majority Of cases Of coughs,
colds and pneumonia might be
avoided. These troubles are
frequently due to weakness,
which produces a catarrhal con-
dition of the mucous membrane,
which is an internal skin of the
body. When this skin is weak
ened it becomes easily infected
with germs which cause many of
the diseases to which flesh is
heir. Healthy mucous mem
branes are essential safeguards
Of the body's general health.
An excellent aid in the pre-
vention of coughs, colds, pneu-
monia, and such like infectious
diseases, is a remedy that will
prevent or cure catarrh.
We have a remedy which we
honestly believe to be unsur-
passed in excellence for the pre-
vention of coughs, colds and all
catarrhal conditions. It is the
prescription Of a famous physi-
clan, who has an enviable repu-
tation of thirty years of cures
gained through the use of this
formula. We promise to make
no charge for the medicine should
it fail to do as we claim. We
urge everybody who has need OF
