when normal digestion Is secured the

According to Dr. Harlanson. the SAT-
est and best treatment is to use after

can now be found at all drug stores

AS DR.. Bennett says, the only reason
can imagine why Stuart's Dyspepsia

HuMoRs IN THE BLOOD

Nature has made ample provision
in the moisture and sunshine OF the
air for the outward protection and
healthy condition of the skin. But
the more important work of nourish-
ing the cuticle has been left to an in
ward source-the blood. 1t is from
the circulation that the pores and
glands receive their stimulus, and

In q hcalthful state because OF con-
slant nutriment supplied by the blood.
It is only when the circulation be-
comes infected with humors or acids
that We are troubled with skin af1ec-

troubles are carried through the cir
culation direct to the skin, and their

RALEIGH RUNS
INTO A SNAG

An attempt of City Engineer
Raleigh to even up financial
scores of the city with property
owners on North 18th and 21st
streets by illegally taxing up ex-
orbitant engineering fees was
nipped this morning.
When McGregor was commits
sioner of public works he put
through the grading of these
streets when the assessed valua-
ton would not stand it. The prop
erty got the benefit of the i'm
provement. But the owners took
advantage of the legal technical
ity and knocked out the assess
ment, and the city had to pay ST.
500 for the benefit of the abut-
ting property.
Raleigh decided to get some of
it back. When the sidewalk dis
trict was put in he added $4,000
for engineering, advertising and
inspection. The job is done now.
The whole thing was bid in by
Anton Worter at $3.50. The
size of the engineering bill

RANCHER DEAD;

Nels P. Melin, a dairyman, with
a ranch near Spanaway, was found
dead in the road yesterday with
his horse tied and nearly starved
near him on a back road running
from the Seven Mile house to
Spanaway.
He lived in Tacoma with his
family, but spent a good part OF
the time patching at the dairy
farm. He always came home Sun
day. He did not come last Sun
day nor Monday. Yesterday his
son started to look for him, and
knowing he often took this back
untraveled road, went out that
way, discovering the body in the
road.
Melin was subject to heart at
tacks. 1t is supposed he became
sick and tied his horse to rest and
was stricken down in the road.
He was SO years of age, and

/ do not dare guess what the fu-

The development of the aero
plane will undoubtedly be along
the lines now laid down, i. e., the
monoplane and the biplane. What
improvement will come in motors
and steering gear l can only guess.
The machines are able to accom-
plish much moer than has ever
been asked of them as yet. i do
not think that folding wings will
ever be used, as the trend is now
toward simplicity instead of any
complicated contrivance. Auto
matte stability will come, I think,
and then the greatest problem for
the amateur will be solved. / ex-
pect that within the next three
years aeroplanes will become as

ping. Gigantic strides have al

naval strength. Also subtle cor

through the medium of colored
Autographs showing Russians be-

to demonstrate the superiority of
brown over white men. These
Autographs were distributed by
