Digests what you eat.
Wo would like to rail yogr attention
to the following letter:
Dear Kirs: I have been sufTerlntf
from dysponsla for 21 years. When
ever! would take a strong diet I would
bloat up In the stomach. I would
MifTer great pains In the head and stom
ach and would be obliged to take to
my bed and remain sometimes for a
day-and night. I would be unable to
attend to my household duties at all.
I tried home physicians, but they failed
to do mo any good. Nothing did mo
ny good until last winter, when somo
one advised my husband to get for mo
n bottle of Kodol Dyspepsia Cuhb,
which he did. I used several bottles
of It and 1 am happy to say I can cat
any kind of strong diet I please. I
can sleep well at night and I feci llko
another person altogether. 7 cannot
glvo Kodol Dyspepsia Cure too much,
praise, and I will highly recommend It
io all sufferers of dyspepsia. Mrs.
Peter Kline, Hopewell, l'a.
It can't help but

the worst cases of indigestion even
after everything else falls, nnd that Is

When tlmo was called Jenkins began feel

shoving the boat clear of the bank and
towing her out of the line ot fire, though
not beforo three of the wounded In the
boat had been killed by shots from the

Tho department some time ago addressed

CHICAGO, March S. Martin D. Madden,
president of tho Illinois Manufacturers' as
sociation, returned today from Washing
ton, where a committee from the associa
tion wns given a hearing by Secretary ot
tho Treasury Gage, protesting against the
countervailing duty on Russian beet sugar
recently Imposed by the department.
"We feel," said Mr. Madden, "that the
statements given to the press hy the sec
retary of the treasury tend to mislead the
public on tho question nt Issue. Tho con
tention ot the Manufacturers' association
Is that the Itusslau government pays no
bounty to Its sugar manufacturers. The
conclusion reached after a careful study
of tho lav is that the law governing tho
manufacture of sugar ' KtMRla Prvl'les
for tho payment of "an Internal revenuf
tax. The minister of finance Is empowered
to say what tho approximate quantity of
sugar shall be for home consumption each
year. Ho Is also empowered to provide'
for tho manufacture of a given surplus, to
bo held by each sugar manufacturer as
well ns to compel the storage of what Is
known ns an obllgntory surplus. Tho ap
proximate quantity of sugar allowed to be
shipped by tho Russian manufacturers for
homo consumption is to be based or llxed
by the minister of finance. Upon this, an
tntcrnnl revenue tax of about HiM cents
for each thirty-six pounds of sugar is
charged. If a greater quantity than that
provided by tho Jaw officers of the govern
ment Is shipped for Internal consumption,
doublo'this tux Is charged. If any part of
the sugar manufactured is shipped abroad,
the shipper receives from tho customs oITIce
nt tho border line of Hussln a certificate
setting forth the fact that this mgar was
sent out of tho country. Upon such ship
ments no Internal revonuo tax Is paid
to tbo government.

"The secretary of the treasury holds
that this releaso from the payment of In
ternal revenue tnx by the Kusslan govern
ment to tho shipper Is equlvalont to a
bounty. We havo In this country an In
ternal reveuuo tax on whisky. For every

prlco Is paid by the manufacturer through
the Internal revenue department to tho
government. If the whisky so manufactured
Is consumed in this country. If the whisky
Is shipped abroad for foreign consumption
no Internal levenuo tax whatever Is col
lected. The sectetury of the treasury
agrees with us 'that this release from tho
internal revenue tux to tho whisky shipper
Is not a bounty, but. on tho other hand,
ho holds that tho- releaso of the Internal
revenue tax to tho sugar shipper by tho
Husslan government is a bounty.
"Tho manufacturers of America feel that
the retaliatory measures adopted by the
Kusslan go eminent nro of u very scrlo.ua
nature; that otlier countries may follow the
example of HusfIu nnd that our foreign
market may be, to a large extent, cut oft.
They fear that. Inaniu?li as wo now pro
duce SO per cent moro manufactured goods
thnn wo nro nblo to consume nt home olid
If the foreign market Is cut off tho manu
facturers will only bo able to run 70 per
cent of the time, and If they nre only nble
to work TO per cent ot the tlmo It will
naturallv follow that the men will lose 30
per rent of the tlmo they are now em
ployed. This will create n surplus of la
bor. A reduction lu wages will naturally
follow and a condition of unrest must be
tho natural consequence.
The committee has Information to the
effect that the decision or opinion of At
torney General Griggs was that Russia
paid no bounty, but that the Treasury de
partment had nctcd before ho was able lo
communicate. Tho attempt of the Treasury
department to show tho small quantity ot
manufactured goods exported seems to us
ns unreliable. From our best Information
no record Is kept by tho customs ottlres of
the manufactured goods shipped to Hussla.
except where they aro billed direct. Tho
record of tho Hussion government shows
them to exceed $30,000,000. The latter rec
ord Is based on goods shipped Into Hussla,
whether direct or through some other
country.
"In view of the failure of the secretary
of tho treasury to change his decision In
the matter of this countervailing duty, ar
rangements havo been mixlo to pay the
bounty on n cargo of sugar Just received
nt New York by Jnhn & Co., from which
nn appeal will Immediately bo taken to
the board of appeals."
