CURED MENTAL TROUBLE AND DROPSY.
A few weeks before our second child was born, three
years ago, my wife had local dropsy very bad. We had
two good doctors with her but she was not relieved. Her ////111
mind became affected and we sent her to the asylum at w/'
Bolivar,Tenn., and at the end of four months we brought "a
her home sound and well. But last summer, just before
our third child was born, the dropsy again appeared
and we were very uneasy about her. We gave her G. F. P. (Gerstle’s Female Pana-
cea) and I am glad to say the dropsy disappeared and she is sound and well, and
has a fine, healthy boy baby. D. E. McNEILL. Jones. Tenn.

I write you this to let you know that I am using your G. F. P. (Gerstle’s Female

Havana, June 6.—All the political par-

pers have pronounced against the plan
of Gen. Maximo Gomez to amalgamate
the party organizations. Members of the
cabinet say this scheme is not feasible
as such an election would not carry any
official recognition from the United States.

More than this, they assert that an amal-

assurance from the United States govern-
ment that a convention will be called as
soon as possible ■ after the election of all
the elected mayors to form a constitu-
tion which will be presented for ratifica-
tion to the next congress. Consequently,
they argue, if Gen. Gomez were to
carry' out his plan of taking a plebiscite
it would make even the friends of Cuba
believe it impossible for the Cubans to
do anything

The. mayor replied that Capt. Pitcher had
merely made1 a suggestion, but had said
nothing in the nature of an order. Several
eouncilmen protested strongly against
such a suggestion. One of them asked
why Cubans, the owners of the country,
should learn a foreign language in order
to speak with a foreigner.
The mayor called the attention of the
council to the fact that the Argentine

the matter in view of the possibility that

The casualties were not heavy, and the

Lord Roberts was embarrassed by Earl

toria and the facility with which it could
be entered by the British troops, and he
was deprived of the credit of forcing his
way into the B-oer capital, since the eager-

was proclaimed when he was not prepared

Willie Waldorf Astor and Bradley-Martin
Seek Relief in the Courts From Assess-
ments on Personal Property.
New York, N. Y., June 6.—-Bradley-Mar-
tin-and William Waldorf Astor, formerly
two of New York’s wealthiest residents,,
are seeking to be relieved of taxes placed
their personal property here. If
they succed the city will lose thousands
of dollars. Mr. Astor has not only given
up his residence here, but also has re-
nounced his citizenship and is now a citi-
zen of England. Mr. Martin has not yet
gone to this extent but says he is
longer a resident of this city and has not
been for about two years.
Mr. Astor’s property has been assessed
at $2,000,000. - Dependent upon the result of
the assessment in the case: of Mr. Martin
are two other cases, that of his wife, Cor-
nelia S-, who has been assessed %t $200,-
000 and Mrs. Elizabeth Sherman for $250,-
000. Discussion was had before Judge An-
drews in the supreme court in the certori-
ari proceedings to review the assessment
of Mr. Martin’s personal property. Judge
Andrews reserved his decision
he had no personal property which was
He says he has not
resident of this city since 1895.
He protested against the- imposition of the
tax in person a year ago and since then
has become a subject of the queen.
Corporation Counsel Whalen for
commissioners ■ holds that although Mr.
Astor gave up his residence here in 1895
he was taxed regularly every year there-
after. but made no protest until last year.
Dr. Harlandson, whose opinion in dis-
eases is worthy of attention, says when a
man or woman comes to me complaining
of indigestion, loss of appetite, sour stom-
ach, belehing, sour watery-rising, head-
aches, sleeplessness, lack of ambition and
a general run-down nervous condition, I
advise them to take after each meal one
or two of Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets, al-
lowing the tablet to dissolve in the mouth,
and thus mingle with the food eaten. The
result is that the food is speedily digested,
before it has had time to so-ur and fer-
ment. These tablets will digest the food
anyway, whether the stomach wants to
or not, because they contain
digestive principles, vegetable essences,
pepsin and Golden Seal, which supply just
what the weak stomach lacks.
I have advised the tablets with great
success, both in curing indigestion and to
build up the tissues, increasing flesh in
thin, nervous patients whose real trouble
was dyspepsia, and as soon as the stomach
was put to- rights, they did not know what
sickness was.
A- flfty-cent package of Stuart’s Dys-
pepsia 'Tablets can be bought at any drug
store, and as they are not a secret patent
medicine, they can be used as often as
desired, with full assurance that they con-
tain nothing harmful in tne slightest de-
gree; on the contrary, any one whose
stomach is at all deranged will find great
benefit from the use of Stuart’s Dyspeps!a
Tablets. They will cure any form of
stomach weakness or disease except
cancer of the stomach. „
