chronic indigestion and dyspepsia by
the use of KODOL FOR DYSPEPSIA.
Some of the most hopeless cases of

digestive organs. The stomach is the

Revolutionary Elements Aio Preachinc
That Parliamentism Is a Hoax anc
Are Trying to Make Revolution anc
Anarchy Inevitable.
St. Petersburg, May 23.—Professoi
Milukoff, the spokesman of the con
stitutional Democras, according to s
thoughtful article published by him in
the Rech Wednesday, is rather de
spondent over the prospect of staying
the tide of revolution in the country
He bases his pessimism upon the cjn
viction that tlK government will not
yield a full constitutional regime, up
on which, he says, it is still possibh
to calm the passions of the people. Ht
regards Premier Goreinyken and hi!
cabinet as mere puppets doing the bid
ding of the powerful influences at
court, and believes that Emperor Nlch
olas is destined to throw away the op
portunity as Louis XVI did, of trans
ferring the country to a peaceful, par
liamentary regime. This the profes
sor considers to be the government’s
last chance.
Revolutionary elements are preach
ing that parliamentism is a hoax anc
are trying to make revolution and an
archy inevitable. Nevertheless, the
constitutional democrats are trying tc
j save the empire on a constitutional !>a
j sis, and if they fai! and the revolution
j comes, it will not be on their should
ers.
The central committee of the con
stitutional democrats has not oomplc:
! ed the drafts of the laws to be intro
duced iu parliament, including tiniver.
1 sal suffrage, irrespective of sex, am!
equal rights for all citizens; laws guar
anteeing immunity of the person an.I
t inviolability of domicile without due
process of law, provding also the guar
| antee of habeas corpus and specittcal
ly excluding all exceptions.
While a part of the upper house fa
j vors a complete surrender to the de
I mands of the lower house, the Trepofl
cabal, which secretly favors a dissolu
tion of parliament, is not strong
enough for the moment, to urge such
a course. The emperor continues well
disposed, and is supported by many
nobles at the court, and by many big
landed proprietors throughout the en
; tire country.
The provinsial papers are filled with
advertisements offering estates for
sale, inserted by property owners who
| despairing of saving thpir property
^ are ready to accept what they can get
and flee the country.
Crazed Telegraph Operator Caused
Confusion by Message.
Chicago, May 23.—A dispatch to a
morning paper from Huntington, Ind.,
says:
A crazed telegraph operator block
ed the entire Wabash system Tins My
for half an hour by sending out un’n
teiligible messages to the different
train dispatchers. Much confusion
followed, and all trains had to be
stepped in order to prevent accidents.’
When Chief Operator Beauchamp
went to his luncheon he left Everett
Kcllam in charge of the board. Lav
ing recently been overcome by beat,
Kcliam, unknown to his employers,
was in an irresponsible condition and
as soon as the room was vacated he
decided that the past methods of train
dispatching were all wrong. Smitten
with an idea that it would be more
interesting to run a passenger train
on freight schedules and vice versa,
with a head-on collision or two in
every division to give the wrecking
crews practice, he started immediate
ly to put it into execution.
JHl Humors
Are impure matters which the skin,
liver, kidneys and other organs can
not take care of without help, there If
■uch au accumulation of them.
They litter the whole system.
Pimples, boils, eczema and other
emotions, loss of appetite, that tired
feeling, bilious turns, fits of indiges
tion, dull headaches and many other
troubles are due to them.

Remove all humors, overcome all
their effects, strengthen, tone and
