Easy to Get Relief
From INDIGESTION

Your stomach should digest the food
you eat, without the aid Of any arti-
fetal dlgestives. If it won't do that
then you are continually subject to
dyspepsia, indigestion, heartburn, head
aches and constipation.
Instead Of taking digestive medi-
cine, take steps to get your stomach
and intestines again in healthy,
natural condition. Jayne's Tonic Yer
mifuge will do this for you will take
it regularly. It is not digester Of
foods, but it will restore your stomach
and intestires SO that they will attend
to their natural functions, digesting
what you eat and giving strength to
the bod1.
For more than eighty years thou
sands of men and women who had suf-
fered the pains caused by dyspepsia
and indigestion have been praising
this Tonic as the only remedy which
brought them permanent relief. As
the Tonic acts directly upon the
stomach and intestines, it is natural
appetizer and strength builder.
Many forms of supposed indigestion
are the result of intestinal parasites,
for which Jayne's Tonic Vermifuge
is unsurpassed. Insist upon Jayne's;
accept 10 other. Sold by druggists
everywhere. DR.. D. Jayne & Son,

The communication is expected to
create profound sensation in Latin.
America, for, while it was addressed
to Nicaragua, it will be recognized al
a general warning.
American purpose, the instruction
declares, is to foster true constitu.
tional government and free elections.
and to this end strong moral support

selfish designs of would-be despots
and not upon any principle or popular
demand. Force will he used il neces.

has already been adopted in Santo Do

Minister Weitzel was directed to
present his instruction officially to the
Nicaraguan government and unofficial
ly to the revolutionists in that country
and to make it public as an authorized
declaration of policy. The instruction
in part follows:

regime of barbarity and corruption
was ended by the Nicaraguan nation
after bloody war, the government Of
the United States opposed not only
the individual but the system and this
government could not countenance any
movement to restore the same regime.
The. government of the United States
will, therefore, discountenance any re-

strong moral support to the cause of
legally constituted good government

aqua, whom it has long sought to aid
in their just aspiration toward peace

chance In Minimum Weights.


The board OF railroad commission
ers have given an opinion in the
case entitled the Corn Belt Meat Pro
ducers' association of Des Moines,
Iowa, against the Chicago & North.
western RAILROAD ct al, fixing the
minimum weights OH carload ship
ments of cattle, sheep and hogs IN
Iowa. Originally the minimum
weight on q thirty-one-foot car was 10.
900 pounds for hogs, and this the rail-
roads on several occasions attempted
to raise to 10000 or 10000 pounds
per car. For two years the matter
was held up by petition Of shippers
and the railroads have been demand
ing higher minimum. They claim
that most OF the cars are now thirty
six feet in length and have establish
ed an interstate agreement to fix the
minimum weight at 1900 pounds.
The commission finds from the evi-
dence, which included that OF some
of the larger packers Of the state as
we'll as the meat producers, that 49,
900 pounds can be comfortably packed
in thirty-six-foot car. Some of the
neighboring states, the commission
finds, have advanced the minimum on
cattle to $4,000 pounds per car and
on hogs to 10000 pounds per car. The
commission finds that the compro-
mise minimum of 10000 pounds per
car for hogs is reasonable and will is-
sue an order to that effect.

We should have a decent building in
