ONE MILLION DOLLARS FOR
A GOOD STOMACH
This OGer Should BE n Warming TO
Every Man and Woman.

The newspapers and medical jour.
mails recently have had much to say
relative to famous milliOnalro's OF.
fer of million dollars for a new
stomach
This great multi-millionaire was
too busy to worry about the condition
of his stomach He allowed his dys.
pepsia to run from bad to worse uu.
til in the end II became incurable.
His misfortune serves as warning
TO others.
Every one who suffers with dyspep.
STA for few years will give every
thing he owns for new stomach.
Dyspepsia is commonly caused by
an abnormal state of the gastric
juices, or by lack of tone In the walls
of the stomach. The result Is that
the stomach loses its power to digest
food.
We are now able to supply certain
missing elements - to help to restore
to the gastric juices their digestive
power. and to aid in making the
stomach strong and well.
We know that ReXall Dyspepsia
Tablets are a most dependable rem
edy for disordered stomachs, indiges
ton, and dyspepsia.
We want you to try them and will
return your money If you are not more
than satisfied with the result.
Three sizes, % cents, 80 cents, and

GLACIER SAILS
ON A FRIDAY

Men from the Honolulu Iron Works
are still hammering away at the Gla-
ciers iron sides, RENTING the gate
that was smashed when the three-tOn
propeller blades that were being car
ried on the forward deck got adrift In
a storm and started TO batter the rail
with every roll of the ship. II Is be
lieved that the repair work will be
completed today, in which case the
supply ship will sail for Manila to,
morrow morning at $3.50 in spite OF
the old superstition about Friday de,
parturCs. The damage to the pipes
on deck, which were also cut by the
bucking blades, has been repaired by
the ships own force.
The Glacier will sail with over 100
tons Of coal, considerably more than
her bunker capacity. About 40 tons
are sacked on deck and this, together
with so tons of potatoes and about SO
tons of gear for the Saratoga, makes
quite a deckload for even this staunch
ocean meat-hound." Although the
plan is to sail from Honolulu to Ma
Mia direct, Captain Douglas may find
II necessary to stop at Guam for bal
last coal when he has been forced 10

The Glacier will reach Manila and
Olongapo via the San BernardinC
Straits. going to the south instead OF
the north of LuZon. This route Is

thirty miles.
A practise run was made in the
