Dizziness A
Danger Signal
Forerunners of Morti Serious Condi
tion of the Alimentary Tract.
Invariably flatulence, and dfzilneaa Indi
cate the beginning of serloua troubles,
stomach and Intestine troubles usually fol
low, which sooner or lter develop symp
toms of an alarming nature, Catarrh of
the stomach, gaatrltir, constipation, piles,
liver troubles and a general break-down
of the health usually follow these symp
toms when left to run their full course.
When tht stomach la not performing its
proper duty the rest of tha system la sure
u tuffer. As It Is a wall known fact that
tha stomach feeda tbe rest of tha body
and organs, therefore many other diseaaes
may arlae, either diiectly or indirectly
from disorder of the atomach.
Whenever there is tho slightest Indica
tions of flatulence or disslness noticed It
should be cared for at once that It may
not develop more dangerous symptoms.
Charcoal Is an exoelent remedy for the
atomach, relieving flatulence by absorbing
tho poisonous gases that accumulate in the
stomach, and aiding dtgeitloh and asairul
laOon; It has a specific action upon this
org (in. and a very rapid and positive action
on the ayttem In general.
Charcoal haa been used for several thous
and years, bah as a stomach regulator
and an antidote for poisons taken In the
stomach. Tho success of charcoal la un
questionable. . Tha only remaining question
la to get charcoal In the most convenient
and palatable form. The F. A. Stuart Co.
manufacture a charcoal losenge composed
uf young willow wood charcoal and pure
horey, making tht valuable product con
venient, palatable and perfectly harmless.

himself with counsel. The others included
J. B. Wallace, charged with forgery;
Charles Johnson, having a "Jimmy" in his
possession; John Ell, Michael Hedrlck and
Arthur Hall, burglarizing the Farrell Gro
cery company.' "
Man Aaka SiToroe, Wlfa Foor Cook
Cruelty waa the favorite allegation In di
vorce proceedings Initiated Saturday morn
ing In district court, although one husband
set up that his wife was a poor cook and
he could not eat the viands which she fur
nished for the table. Another man charged
that hia wife insisted on his maintaining
In sloth and Indolence her 23-year-old son,
who is able, but too lazy, to work. Those
suing for freedom include Max Burnsteln
against Sarah Burnsteln. John M. Stlnaon
against Julia Stlnaon, Mary Rlsh against
Charles Rlsh, and Sadie Williams against
Frank Williams. In the last case Mrs.
Williams files an answer and cross peti
tion. Baby's Boots and Beer Bottles a tolas
Baby's boots and beer bottles were two of
the articles for the theft of which men
were arraigned In police court Saturday
morning. John Rclder will eerve fifteen
days in Jail for stealing a case of bottles
that had once contained the golden liquid,
while Frank Jankowskl of Twenty-sixth

fine of $5 and cost which he could not
pay. He was arrested Friday afternoon

tences Involved cash values that were half
a dozen times as great as the values uf
the stolen goods.

DESIRED ANIMATION LACKIN0
Ktnr Improvement I -Noted In Iron
and Steel, and Jobbers In Dry
ftoode Report Satisfactory
Business.
NEW YORK. March 13.-R. O. Dun
Co.'s Weekly Review of Trade tomorrow
will say:
Milder weather wilt stimulate spring
sales, but general trade Is quiet. Con
ditions are better In the west thnn In the
east, but everywhere there Is still lack
ing tho desired animation. Some progress
toward more nettled conditions Is noted
In Iron and ateel. The most encouraging
symptom Is the better sentiment und
tills ha been followed by an Increased
demand. Best news comes from the
structural division, orders for material
aggregating a good volum while 'he
new prices are firmly maintained. The
advancing season is also expected to in
crease the tonnage for building wovk.
Icmand for railroads has not expanded
to any extent, although additional in
quiries for steel rail are reported. In
wire products orders are somewhnt
heavier, while bids for cast Iron pipe
were opened in this city early In the
week, but otherwise this division Is gen
erally quiet.
Western distributers of dry goods, par
ticularly Jobbing houaea In the northwest
and Missouri river territory, report a sat
isfactory business, but conditions are lean
satisfactory In the coal and Iron sections
of the middle west and among local Job
bera. Home falling off In activity Is
normal at this season. Indications are
that by the end of the month another ex
port movement In China goods may he
under way. while some business la being
done with the Red sea. Wide print cloths
are Irregular, but narrow goods are nomi
nally strong, though In light demand.
Prints are moving slowly, but sales of
staples and dress ginghams continue
fairly large. In the woolen division there
Is a disposition on the part of clothiers
to send salesmen on the road unusuully
early.- One of the most marked features
of the season thus far has been the grow
ing demand for serges and unfinished
worsteds. The dress goods market la
fairly active, with a good demand for
staple worsted. The yarn market con
tinues dull, with buying confined to lin
ing in Immediate requirements. while
prices are fairly steady and strong.
i-xtreme dullness prevails In the hide
and leather markets: uncertainty rcgard
15 th5 ,arlff legislation is affecting
hides, having a deterrent Influence on
bus ness. Foreign hides of all kinds are
neglected, but the dullness In Latin
Americana waa relieved by a large hale
or enezuelana. Few sales of anv variety
of leather are being made and these are
only for small quantities to supply Immd
diate wants of buyers.
BRADSTREET'S REVIEW OP TRADE
Industrial Developments Are Slightly
Mrt Favorable.
NEW YORK. March lS.-Bradstreet s to
morrow will gay:
Trade and industrial developments this
week have been slightly more favorable,
the result being a better tone In various
V?m!i. . adT and "oni enlargement of
activity in spring demand from Jobbers and
from retailers. Helpful In this respect has
been the arrival of better weather condi
tions, the season's trade toward an early
faster, large shipments of grain to market
attracted by high prices, the plating of
aome business In Iron and steel Induced by
lower prices and the resumption of build
ing operatlnna at manv cltlea aftfr the
winter shut down. Where Jobbing demand
nas Improved, however, conservatism In
buying has ruled. Trado at first hand has
remained pretty quiet and the enlargement
,.. ' bu'ln has not been verv marked.
Still, even collections show a slight gain.
There are still many unsettled features
and some soft spots in trans and Industrial
situations. Where demand has expanded
It has been largely in the direction of
women'a wear goods and fabrics. Export
trade totals at present arc depressing, dis
playing the effect of high prices here and
reduced buying ability abroad. The coal
trade la unsettled. Wage reductions In the
Iron and ateel trade are Increasing. Shoe
manufacturers are reported catching up
with spring orders, and a long between
aeasons period Is looked for.
Perhaps the best showing made by anv
Industry Is that of building, where proposed
expenditures are about double those fore
shadowed a year ago.
Business failures In the T'nlted States for
the week ending March 11 were 2M, against
219 last week, 278 In the like wepk of 190R,

Women's Secrets
There i one man in tha United Steles who ha perhaps heard
more women's secrets then any other man or woman in the
country. Theoe secrets era not secrets of guilt or shame, but
the seorets of suffering, end they have been confided to Lr.
R. V. Fierce in the hope and expectation of advice and help.
That few of these women have been disappointed in their ex
pectations is proved by tho fact that ninetyeifiht per cent, of
alt women treated by Dr. Pierce have been absolutely and
altogether cured. Such a record would be remarkable if the
ceiei treated were numbered by hundred only. But when
that record applies to the treatment oi more then balf-a- mil
lion women, in a practice of over W year, it i pnenoroenel,
and entitle Dr. Pierce to the gratitude accorded him by women, a tha first ol
specialist in the treatment of women' disease.
Every ick woman may consult Dr. Pierce by letter, absolutely without
charge. All rcplie are mailed, sealed in perfectly pluin envelope, without
any printing or dvertiin whatever, upon them. Write without fear as with
out fee, to World' Dispensary Medical Association, Dr. R. V, Pierce, Pre!.,
