It has been known for many months that the head of the War Department feels he is losing financially by re taining his present position and that he has long been anxious to return to the practice of law in New York city.

Just when he will sever his connection with the administration is not settled, but it is possible that he will leave as soon as Governor Taft can be spared from the Philippines. The latter is a tentative successor to Root, and the appointment has been discussed by the President, but it is not known here whether he would pre fer a portfolio to a seat on the Supreme Court Bench, an offer which he declined some time ago. because he believed that he could not be spar ed from his present work.

Common sense would suggest and that and the if one wishes to become fleshv plump it can only result from food we eat and digest and that food should be albuminous or flesh forming food, like eggs, beefsteak and cereals: in other words the kinds of food that make flesh are the foods which form the greater part of our daily bills of fare. But the trouble is that while we eat enough and generally too much, the stomach, from abuse and overwork, does not properly digest and assimilate it. which is the reason so many people remain thin and under weight: the digestive organs do not completely digest the flesh forming beefsteak and eggs aad similar whole some food. There are thousands of such who are really confirmed dyspeptics, although they may have no particular pain or inconvenience from their stomachs. If such persons would lay thsir prejudices aside and make a regular practice of taking.

after each meal one or two of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets the food would be quickly and thoroughly -digested. because these tablets contain the natural peptones and diastase which every weak stomach lacks, and by supplying this want the stomach is soon enabled to regain its natural tone and vigor. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets digest every form of flesh forming food, meat, eggs, bread and potatoes, and this is the reason they so quickly build up, strengthen and invigorate thin, dyspeptic men. women and children. Invalids and children, even the most delicate use them with marked bene fit as they contain no strong, irritating drugs, no cathartic nor any harmful ingredient.

Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is th most successful and most widely known of any remedy for stomach troubles because it i the most reasonable and scientific of modern medicines. Stuart's Dysppsia Tablets are sold by every druggist in the United Stutes and Canada as well as in Great Britain, at 50 cents for complete treatment. Nothing further is required to cure any stomach trouble or to make thin, nervous dyspeptic people f)rong. piump a id well. 1113 FOREIGN STRIKES INCREASE.

Pottsville, Pa. Wednesday, February 11, 1903. NEARING THE END. The attorneys for the interests represented before the anthracite strike commission are now engaged in summing up their cases. The commission will be compelled to listen to this sort of foiensic eloquence for several days, after which it will be permitted to settle down to the task of preparing its award.

It is not believed it will take the commission a great while to arrive at a decision on most of the s-sues raised, but there are two or three tough problems with which to wrestle. A vast amount, of testimony has been taken before the commission. In all nearly 000 witnesses were examined. To the ordinary mind it has seemed that much of the evidence offered was irrelevant, but it may be that it ail helped to enlighten the members of the commission concerning the various matters tlv.V wished to have elucidated. Naturally speculation is rife concerning what will be Hie award of the commission.

Will the mine workers be granted an increase. Will the union be recognized as an organization entitled to treat with the operators? Will the request that the mining of coal be paid for by weight be granted? The answer to these and other questions will be awaited with a great deal of interest by both operators and mine workers, as well as by the general public. But perhaps the question that most of all interests the public is that of responsibility for limiting the coal supply, thereby causing much inconvenience and suffering. The operators have placed the blame for this upon the mine workers, and the latter pave retaliated by throwing it back upon the operators. So far as we retail no testimony calculated to just where this responsibility should be placed was offered before the commission.

It may be, however. that, upon that subject the commission has all the information necessary: if -o. we hope it will let the truth be known. The hearing has proved a very costly affair to all concerned, but if the result is such as to end all bickering and bring about continued peace and quiet in the coal regions, the money will not have been expended in vain. And thi would begin of i lie be a good movement stiri oiiiidiusT: ime for for the i of the Council to eaut ifyin Henry Clay monument.

No one cares particularly for the cool spots at present, but they will enjoy the chances for the breezes next THE OLD STORY. People who have failed to get vac ciliated are still keeping the Munici pa i Hospital supplied with patients and keeping the borough's expense at count, at a high figure. These are the people who have made the hospital for contagious diseases necessary. Some of the unbelievers in the virtue of the vaccine theory have paid a high price for their skepticism, but for all that there are still some disciples of the anti-vaccination cult in ihe borough. It is the old story the people of Sodom did not believe in the fire story until they had been caught in the blaze.

One-third of February, the last of the winter months, has already gone. Spring seems almost in sight and leads us to hope the cold weather still remaining will be neither too severe nor unduly prolonged. DODGING THE GERMS.

Labor is lightened by love, but love cannot lighten pain or relieve it. Many a man looks on at his wife's suffering willing to do anything to aid her and able to do nothing. bometimes, however, tne Husband's attention is directed to Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription and its remarkable cures of womanly diseases. He may not have much hope of a cure, but he is led to trv the medicine, with the result that in almost every case there is a perfect and permanent cure.
