The po- sition is taken that too much of this article of food was supplied to the men, and that under the circumstances it was unpalatable and found undesirable as a continuous ration. The fact is set | forth that the canned roast beef had not been used to any appreciable ex- tent before the beginning of this war, and it is therefore regarded as a prac- tically untried ration. In view of this fact, the commissary general of subsistence 1s roundly crit- icized for the purchase of the meat in ch extensive quantities. As to the | character of the meat for wholesome | and nutrition, the reports of Pro- fessors Atwater and Chittenden are quoted at length, sustaining the claims in this respect. The instructions of the President are followed closely in order and all the points indicated by him as being those upon which he de- sired that inquiry should be made are covered. Accordingly, the court finds that the meat was not ‘‘doctored” that it was | the beef of commerce; that there was no more neglect than was incidental to the hurried preparation for the war: that the inspection, while generally ac- cording to regulations, was not always | up to the requirements; and that the | sickness of the troops was not to any | reat degree occasioned by the use ')f: either the canned or the refrigerated beef. On the other hand, it is explained that General Miles himself did not re- port during the war that the “eef. either refrigerated or canned, v 1- fit as a ration. Other officers wh: ve their testimony before the court‘ were found also to have neglected what the court conceives to have been their dutv | in this respect, and all are blamed for | this failure.

CATARRH OF THE STOMACH. A Pleasant, Simple, Safe but Effectual Cure for It. Catarrh of the stomach has long been considered the next thing to incurable. The usual symptoms are a full or bloated sensation after eating, accom- | panied sometimes with sour or watery | risings, a formation of gases, ure on the .ungs and heart and | difficult breathing; hea ache, fickle ap- petite, - nervousness and a general | played out and languid feeling. There is often a foul taste in the mouth, coated tongue, and if the inter- | or of the stomach could be seen it would show a slimy, inflamed condition. The cure for this common and ob- stinate disease is found in a treatment which causes the food to be readily and thoroughly digested before it has time | to ferment and irritate the delicate mucous surface of the stomach. To secure a prompt and healthy di- gestion is the one nece! ry thing to do, and when normal djgestion is se- | cured the catarrhal condition will have disappeared. According to Dr. Harlanson the safest and best treatment is to use after each | meal a tablet, composed of Diastase, | Aseptic Pepsin, a little Nux, Golden | eal and fruit acids. | These tablets can now be found at all | drugstores under the name of Stuart's | Dyspepsia Tablets, and, not being a | patent medicine, can be used with| perfect safety and assurance that healthy appetite and thorcugh . diges- tion will follow their regular use after | meals. Mr. N. J. Booher of 2719 Dearborn | street, Chicago, Ill., writes: “Catarrh | is a local conditicn, resulting from a neglected cold in the head, whereby the lining membrane ¢f the nose becomes | inflamed and the poisonous discharge | therefrom, passing back into the throat, | reaches the stomach, thus producing | catarrh of the stomach. Medical au- | thorities prescribed for me three years | for catarrh of the stomach without | cure, but to-day I am the happiest of | men after using only one box of| Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets. I cannot | find appropriate words to express my | good feeling. 1 have fcund flesh, ap-| petite and sound rest from their use.” Stuart’s Dyspepsia Tablets is the safest preparation as well as the sim- plest and most convenient remedy for any form of indigestion, catarrh of the stomach, biliousness, sour stomach, | heartburn and bloating after meals.
