LESS DYSPEPSIA NOW
HERES THE REASON

The fact that there is less dyspepsia
and indigestion in this community
than there used to be is largely, we
believe, due to the extensive use of
Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets, hundreds of
packages OF which we have sold. No
wonder we have faith in them. No
wonder we are willing TO offer them to
you for trial entirely at our risk.
Among other things. they contain
Pepsin and Bismuth, two Of the great
est digestive aids known to medical
science. They soothe the inflamed
stomach. allay pain, check heartburn
and distress, help to digest the food,
and tend to quickly restore ghe stom-
ach to its natural. comfortable healthy
state.
There is no red tape about our guar
antee. Tt means just what it says.
Wen ask YOU. no questions. Your word
is enough for us. If RexalI Dyspepsia,
Tablets cont restore your stomach to
health and make your digestion easy
and comfortable, we want you to come

The Panama tolls question has been
a subject Of dispute for nearly two
years. Diplomatic correspondence be-
tween Great Britain and the United
States found the question unsettled
when President Taft left Office. But,
except for an assurance to James
Bryce, then British ambassador, when
he left the United States a year ago,
that the question would be taken up
in the regular session Of congress,
President Wilson never has directed
any official communication to England
on the tolls question.
The president recently told callers
he had never discussed the matter for
maIly or informally with the British
ambassador, Sir Cecil Spring Rice, be-
cause he believed the obligation on
the part Of the United States to re-
peal the exemption clause was n
which this government itself should
realize without outside influence or
pressure.
Administration leaders in both house
and senate have assured the president
that with the delivery of a message by
him, showing that International cir
cumstances had arisen since the meas
ure was last debated, the presidents
suggestion for repeal would bring
prompt action.

IT have come to ask for the repeal
Of that provision of the Panama canal

the justice, the wisdom n the large
policy of such a repeal with the ut

I'm my own judgment, very fully

then? The small work capital Of the

having sufficient funds to make i'm

other precaution continually overlook

that each year 8 per cent of the last

Raising of Fruit New Ven

WASHINGTON, D. c., May 10
rhe coffee raised in our island pos
sessions, Porto Rico, is in great de-
nand abroad and the foreign market
places it at the top OF the price list
Of coffees from all over the world, &C
.ording to experts at the U. 8. De-
oartment of Agriculture's Porto Ri

oeople of the United States have de-
yeloped a taste for a different kind Of
coffee, and the performance OF a great
many people will have to be changed
IN order to obtain a larger market for
Porto Rican coffee in this country.
The cost Of changing the acquired
taste Of the American seems too great
to justify the attempt so long as such
excellent prices are obtained else
where for the product.
During the past year, says the new
ly issued annual report of the Depart
ments station In Porto Rico, the val
ue of the exports of coffee amounted
10 a great deal more than they ever
have since the American occupation.
Better cultivation and higher prices
have enabled the coffee industry to
show great progress, and planters are
now following better practices in the
selection of their seed for planting.
The Departments station is introduce

which are yielding better than native
coffee and giving a higher percentage

ers on the island and has been result

ter prices for the planters.
or the coffee exported during the
past year, $S,37S,346 worth went to
foreign countries, while only 1892,
go worth went to the United States
Although today there exists a benefit
of tariff, the coffee is still following
the old lines of trade established by
tariff laws during the Spanish regime
1t is a marked indication of the truth
that trade established upon prefer
ence of taste for certain product Is
a most difficult one to change. How
ever, associations and individuals are
still striving to extend the market
and to gain even a higher reputation
for the coffee of Porto Rico.

thriving in Porto Rico and promise:
