WHAT DID WE TELL YOU?
Were We
Too Enthusiastic About
HEALTH DEFENDERS?
Haven't They Done Preciieljr at We Promised There Za No Hatard About
These Remarkable Tablet They Will Positively Cure Any Cam of
Dyspepsia, No Matter How Severe Some of the Citizens of
This Place Will Speak a Good Word for T7s Shortly.
The Tablets Ar Taking Hold-Those They Have Cured Will Speak In Com
mon Gratitude,
It Is exceedingly dlfTlcutt to get a suf
ferer from unv serious disorder to an
nounce that fnct In print.
No mutter how pronounced his cur
may be, he does not care to herald tho
fnct.
Hut, sometimes the relief Is so great
nnd tho cure so welcome that the most
shrinking acknowledge their happiness
brondenst.
Woil have a number of these In a few
days.
wc havn gH-on great satisfaction with
Mason's Dyspepsia Tablets, and wo nro
entitled to sumo acknowledgement, right
here.
Remember that we say tho cure is posi
tive. No temporary relief, but positive, per
manent cure.
It Is snfo to say that If the public was
convinced of the truth of that statement,
we could not prcparo the tablets rapidly
enough.
They have everything to recommend
them.
In the first place, they aro absolutely
free from such dangerous drugs as calo
mel, aloes and opium.
In the second place, they are prepared
from the formulas of four physicians,
whose success In the treatment of dys
pepsia was phenomenal.
As to convincing the public, that will
all come In its own good time.
The tablets will do thnt.
i It's a slow process tho public Is stub
bornbut when tho public gets a bad
stomachachn nnd our tablets relieve It
nt once, and cure It speedily, how about
thnt?
In nddltlon to this remarkable Dyspep
sia Cure, Mason has three other specifics
powerful.

DELAGOA BAY AWARD.
Action of Arbitrators Causes Dis
agreeable Impression.
Washington, March 26. The NUnlted
States government has not yet been
notified of the postponement of the
award In the Delagoa Bay arbitration,
which was to have been announced to
day. The news from Berne to the eN
feet that the urbltrators probably will
terrain from a distribution of, the
award among the claimants, has cre
ated a disagreeable Impression here;
canylng us it does the inference that
the result will be an indefinite delay
in the settlement of the cfese.
By adopting such course, the arbi
trator will, It is said, place the re
sponsibility for the delay on the claim
ants, while at the same time Insuring
a postponement of the final adjudica
tion of the case to a date when it
can have no possible effect on the
political situation In South Africa.
