A PECULIAR REMEDY.
Something About tho Now Discovery
Tor Curing Dyspopsln.
The Rev. F. I. Bell, a highly esteem
ed minister residing In Wecdsport,
Cayuga Co., N. Y In a recent letter
writes ns follows: "There has never
been nnythlng that I have taken that
has relieved the Dyspepsia from Which
I have suffered for ten years except
the new remedy called Stuart's Dys
pepsia Tablets. Since taking them I
have hnd no distress nt all after eat
ing and ucaln nfter long yenrs CAN
SLEEP WELL. Rev. F. I. Bell.Weeds
port, N, Y., formerly Idalla, Colo."
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets Is n, re
markable remedy, not only becnuso It
Is n certain cure for nil forma of Indi
gestion, but because It 'seems to act 113
thoroughly In old chronic cases of Dys
pepsia as well as In mild nttneks of In
digestion or biliousness. A person has
dyspepsia simply because the stomach
Is overworked, all It wants Is a harm
less, vegetable remedy to digest the
food nnd thus give It the much needed
rest,
This Is the secret of the succcsj of
this peculiar remedy. No matter how
weak or how much disordered the di
gestion mny be, Stuart's Dyspepbla
Tablets will digest the food whether
the stomach works or not. New life
and energy Is given not only to the
stomnch but to every organ nnd nerve
In the body. A trial of this sptcndld
medicine will convince tho most akep
tlcal that Dyspepsia and all stomach
troubles can be cured. The tablets are
prepared bv tho Stuart Chemical Co.,
of Marshall, Mich., but so popular has
the remedy become that Stuart's Dys
pepsia Tablets can now he obtained at
any drug store at W) cents per package.

And then Franklin Pcarco and Buchanan

IN THE YEAR 3000.
An Italian Homnnccr Dips Into tho
I'nturo lor n Tliouiand Years nnd
Foresees Things Which Outdo the
.Most Mnugulno of All Dreamers.
Paolo Montegnzza. has published In
Milan, Italy, a romance of the future
which far surpasses In fantastic
prophecy the most Imaginative (lights
of tho Bellamyltes, "Year of Our
Lord 3000" Is the title of the romance.
Tho hero Is Paolo Fortunatl of Rome,
nnd the heroine a ccrtnln Maria of the
same city, which, being truly eternal,
endures In pristine splendor a thousand
yienrs hence. Their (experiences, are
as far In advance of the wonders of
"Looking Backward" as .the thirty
first century might be expected to be
In advance of the twenty-first.
These two young persons are be
trothed, and, In rne free and easy way
of the emnnelpaUd society of the fit
turo, go on a trip round the world to
gether, without chnperone, Just lieforo
their marriage. They go In nn airship
three times tho length of the ordinary
pleasure yacht of today. The ship is
operated by electricity bo stored as to
be applied for heat and power without
tho help of a crew. Three buttons are
the means of steering, lighting, warm
ing, and propelling the craft. On the
wal.'s of the cabins the necessary foods
are stored, In condensed form, In little
metnl receptacles, from which may be
drawn nourishment to last through a
trio of weeks.
UNIVERSAL PEACE.
Naturally, at Just this time the first
of the dreams leallzed In this year of
our Lord 3000 Is the dream of universal
peace. The airship is guided from
Rome to Spezln. where Fortunatl
shows to his fiancee the scene of the
worlds last naval bnttle, fought In .the
middle of the twenty-first century. It
was in the great general war which
mnnkind had dreaded and prepared
for through many previous genera
tions. Almost contemporaneously with
tho final land battle round Parle, .the
navies of the nations met off Spszla.
The two battles cost millions of lives,
and so shocked the refined senses of
twenty-first century civilization that
civilization at once .took effective steps
to abolish war. The I'nlted States of
Europe rose from the ruins of tho wnr
rlng people. Under Leo XX., the last
of the pojies, the king of Italy abdicat
ed to make way for the socialistic
state, predicted ever since .the middle
of the nineteenth century, and other
monnrchs followed his example, until
Europe was united as one land in
brotherly love. The socialistic statt-i
endured In Europe four generations,
at the end of which it was succeeded
by the United States of the Whole
World. All dividing lines, such as ter
ritorial and customs demarcation, were
obliterated. There were no more tar
iffs, there was no more "mine and
thine" in national affairs; even the
babsl of languages was wiped out.
There was thenceforth one language,
one literature, one art, one science.
From Spezla the emancipated couple
go to the Pyramids on the shore of the
great sea of Sahara, once a desert.
When the Chief Engineer of the
World's Government proposed to make
this desert over into a sea the peoples
of Europe objected that the change
would render their climate colder, but
the Chief Engineer removed this ob
Jtctlon by using tho south wind to
melt the icebergs round the North
Pole, and thus more than counteract
ed the effect of the Improvement In
North Africa. At the Pyramids the
couple nies't the passengers Just leav
ing the mall airship from Ceylon to
London, exchange thirty-first century
gossip, nnd then proceed on their way
to Ceylon. On this island is the naylum
of all persons who have Governmental
hobbles which they ar- Intent on real
izing. Here Fortunatl can explain to
his fiancee the foolishness of the equal
ity cranks, who would have all men
clothed, fed nnd housed nllke. Here,
too. h- can point out the horrible con
ditions of the people whose monarch
rules absolutely "by tho grace of God."
the soi rows of those living under the
system of militarism so popular for
two centuries before ilie abolition of
war. and the wuste-d lives of all who
talk themselves to death In the effort
to govern by means of parliaments or
e-ongresses. This jlart of the book is
after the model of "Looking Back
ward." and In supposed to be n killing
criticism of all nineteenth century sys
tems of government, from Teheran to
Washington and from St. Petersburg
to Cape Town.
From Ceylon the all-ship Is steered
to the Adamnn Islands, now known
ns the Dynamo Islands, where, as at
Malta and Fernando de Noronha, there
Is a central station from which power
Is distributed to the rest of the eartli.
The power Is derived from a material
known as pandlnamo, which In turn
is obtained from protoplasm. The
wires radiate from this station to all
quarters of the globe, and carry, be
sides power, all .the news that the
earth's Inhabitants In the thirty-first
century care to learn of one another's
doings.
, TIIK WORLD'S CAPITAL.
The moat Interesting station on the
betrothal journey Is the capital of the
world, AnilroiiollH. founded In 2301 and
Inhabited by 10,000.000 persons. The
site is at tho foot of the Himalayas. In
this city every family, every spinster,
every isolated bachelor, every widow
has a separate house. Such apparent
oxtraviiKnnce Is possible because In th
year 3000 houses do not cost much;
they are no longer built, but are mere
ly cast out of n new-fancied metal
pretty much ns a plaster of Paris bust
Is cast nowadays. The city is built in
squares; every street is seventy feet
wide; ami evidently Mantegazza has
in mind hero some vexatious nine
teenth century restrictions on wheel
ing In Italy no placo In the city Is for
bidden ground for the bicyclist. In
the whole capital there is neither po
liceman, Judere, nor fo!d!or. The few
public otllclals always at the capital
have charge of the distribution of light,
heat, water and power from tho cen
tral stations. Prisoners nro unknown
to the peoplo of tha capital. In their
stead there nro a few moral reforma
tories, whoso Inmates are marked, upon
release, with -cloth strips on tho arm,
Indicating by their color the nature of
each mans offense. These strips must
bo worn until tho friends of the offend
ers agreo that the reformation Is com
plete. Mantegazzl dwells at length
also on tho laws which make compul
sory tho culture of tho beautiful In
trees, (lowers, sculpture and painting.
Tho conseejuenre of theso laws In the
year 3000 Is a paradise of llowers and
statues through Androoolls.
The government of the future, ns ex
emplified In Andropolls, Is too easy to
need much explanation. Tho "Pau
crates," chosen, as aro tho representa
tives of the world, for one year, lives
In tho one palace left on tho faco of
this earth. TIu World'B parliament
meets for only one month every year,
and then merely to consider tho pre
vention or alleviation of such disasters
ns earthquakes nnd Hoods. The execu
tive careu for tho few governmental
affairs of tho earth the other eleven
months of the year. Tho World's cab
inet hns but four secretaries of agri
culture, of health, of education, and of
commerce. Tho secretaries are chosen
by unlversnl suffrage and are kept In
oflco during good "behavior. Mante
gazzn has much to say of tho pchools
of the thirty-first century, but tho
principal reform thnt he has In eye Is
the shortening of the hours of study.
Instruction Is given for but three hours
a day and two days In the week nro
holldnys. Dead languages are no long
er tnught;)lhclr placJn the school cur
riculum la taken by chemistry, electric
science, and mechanics.
The X-rays have been so extensively
npplled In medicine that physicians nro
able to see In the germ stago the whole
physical and spiritual future of tho In
fant. Physicians of the highest nc
eiulroments nro delegated to examine
newly born babes and to determine;
whether the promise of crime exists In
tho brain or the promise of sickness In
the body. Every child having Jn It the
germs of mental or physical disorder
Is put to death.
FUTURE MUSIC.
In Andropolls the theatre Is the main
means of entertainment. Tho perform
ances are given In the daytlmo In order
thnt nobody shall bo kept out of b?d
after dark. Tho operas of a long-gono
nge are given in one theatre Bellini's,
Mozart's, Wagner's nnd Rossini's. At
other theatres there ntv ethnographical,
astronomical and electrical plays. In
short, the theatre l utilized to give
Instruction In every branch of science
and art. An apparatus under every
qeat enables the theatre-goer to Inten
sify or moderate the activity of any
sense and to control the uctlou of his
emotions, so that he shall not lx? moved
to exceslve grief or Joy by the de
velopment of the plot on the stage.
In the museums the betrothed are
amused with examples of the weapons
with which men of the nineteenth cen
tury, when possessed of the Insanity of
war, were wont to shoot and dig holes
In one another. The weapons nre fully
as fantastic as the waishlp hulks which
had been seen at Spezla, where llK-y
were preserved carefully under cover
as reminders of tho amazing savagery
of a long-ago age. The betrothed see
alxo photographs of tltt- cities and
towns of Mars. Venus and the moon,
which have been carefully explored
with the mighty telescopes of the year
3000. They see alo tho models of th
ilgurcs sen moving on the planets,
these models belmr formed In accord
ance with tho latest results of astron
omical investigation. No communica
tion with the planets has been estab
lished. This romance of the future closer,
with a chapter telling of the visit of
tlm lmtrnthed couple to the ofllce of til
World's Board of health, where both
are subjected to the customary exam
ination of their adaptability to mnr
rled llf The examination results sat
isfactorily, and everybody Is happy,
just as a romance of the nineteenth
century. The young woman Is made
