FIFTY TOWS OF OANDT,
Hnve Been Sent to Our Soldiers in
the Philippine Islands by the
Government.
Fifty tons of candy have been sent
to the soldiers In the Philippine Islands
by the commlsHury department of the
army during the last three months and
large amounts to the soldiers In Cuba
and Puerto Uta.
This Is done upon advice of the medi
cal omeers of the army, because It Is
a physiological fact that a moderate
consumption of confectionery promotes
health and satisfies a natural craving
of the stomach.
Candy wan never furnished to the
United States army before, although It
bus been commonly used as a ration
by the French nnd British troops In
the tropins,
This explodes unother old-fashioned
theory that sweets weie Injurious to
the digestive organs, while a moder
ate use of sweets Is actually beneficial.
Very few things arc Injurious and
the food cranks who advocate the use
of a few grains and vegetables and de
cry tho use of sweets and incuts are
In error, hs a. wholesome variety of
meat and vetjetublo food Is absolutely
necessary for the maintenance of the
highest condition of health.
The best rule to follow Is to eat whut
the appetite craves, and If there Is any
dlscomfortor trouble In' digesting meat
and sweets, the dllllculty can bo lend
lly overcome by the regular use after
meals of some safe digestive composed
of pepsin and diastase which will as
sist the stomach by Inci easing the
flow of gastric juice und furnish the
natural peptone lucking In weak stom
achs. The best preparation of this kind Is
probably Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets,
which may be found at all drug stores.
Years of use have demonstrated tho
value nnd effectiveness of Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets In all cases of Im
paired digestion.

DUNM0RE DOINGS.
Young Married Woman Shot by a
Boarder Presentation to
Superintendent Wilson.
What at first was thought to be a
fatal shooting affray occurred yester
day morning on Smith street, I.uiga
de Maria Leonardis, a young married
woman, 24 years old, was shot by a
boarder at her home, named VI to
Ygnaza.
The parties had a dispute over a
boaid bill earlier in the day and about
11 o'clock the woman was standing in
her doorway when Ygnaza returned
and the trouble was goven over again.
After a heated debate, during which It.
Is claimed the woman hit Ygnaza with
a stone, he pulled his revolver and shot
her in the right side.
Dr. Brown was called in and says
there is no probability of the wound
proving fatal. After firing the sho
Ygnaza fled in the direction of the cor
ners and was afterwards reported as
being seen going by Moses Taylor hos
pital. Special Officer McGrail was hot on, his
trail, but late last night had not landed
his man. The Scranton police were no
tified and a watch was kept on all out
going trains, it being thought he would
attempt to reach New York city, where
relatives of his reside.
