The Russian cruisers Karetets and Gilyak are reported to be on their way to the Orient The Bivoutch has been launched. She will proceed to the Far East next spring. The construction of the Pare! 1. and another battleship 17,000 tons each displacement, on which work was started in 1903 at the Nove Shipbuilding Yard, is not yet completed. A further expenditure for the foregoing two battleships is included in the Budget for the ensning fiscal year. They will be launched this year..
After equipment the warships will be appointed to the Orient.
Mr. Reginald McKenna (First Lord of the Admiralty) in a revent speech said :--It was only seventas years ago since the Naval Estimates stood at £14,000,000. They were now for the current year upwards of £30,000,000. Thirty years ago the officers and men aboard our ships were 40,000, to-day they were 128,000,, That increase of more thân "threefold had been accomplished in s time during which the cost

The experimental, or special type oceaa- going," destroyer Swift is at the present moment completing at the works of Messin. Cammell, Laird, snd: Co., and is to be com missioned this mouth. She belongs to the Estimate of 1905, and has been long in hand. Her most remarkable points are her great speed (36 knotes), her insignificant armament (four 4in. guns où a displacement of 1,800. tóns) azul her enormous cost (more than a quarter of million) Until recently it was believed that she would be employed as a scont, but it is now announced that she will be attached to the Eastern Destroyer Flotilla av an additional unit. This experimental type has met with very severe criticism, and it does not seem likely that it will be repeated.

The Lancet has been publishing a series of Articles on the prevalence of enteric fever these it is said that standard works of medicine amongst British troops in India.

It is probable, however, that among the cases described a Continued Fever" there bad always beau occasional essos of enteric which had not been diagnosed sa such. It was not till 1869 that the term "Enteric was found in the Medical Reports. The increased susceptibility of young soldiers and recent arrivals in India, noticed in recent years, is probably due not to any one cause, but to a combination of causes. Among Europeans all over the world there seems to be a normal or the ages of 20 and 25, and this tendency seems physiological susceptibility to sateria between to be aggravated by the disturbances caused by the change from a temperate to a tropical climate. Want of experienes, and therefore want of care, in matters of diet, exercise, and the general rules of health, over-fatigue, and undus exposure to the sun, are no doubt contributory

THE RIGHT' WAY.
There are many ways of trying to cure Indigestion.
A common way is to take drastic mineral purgatives Salte" of some kind-to stimulate the notion of the liver and the bowels.
A more popular way is to eat a little na possible to sat next to nothing in fact to starre
The first way is dangerous. It not only weakens, but it makes temporary irregularity a permanent irregularity.
The second method is distressing, and does not help. You do not sure indigestion by giving the stomach nothing to digest any more than you attain muscular strength without exercise.
The fact is, hard work does not damage anyone or any power of the body.
Work your brain hard and it grows more acute. Work your muscles hard-they grow bigger and stronger. Work your stomach properly, and it will digest the food necessary to keep you strong.
muscle strained, the stomach breaks down.
Sometimes, just as a brain gets tired, or a It wants a little tonic, a little help in its work, a little stimulation.
This is not gained by hustie parging, which weakens and irritates.
It is not gained by starvation, which throws the organ out of action altogether.
It is uncured by Mother Seigel's Syrup-s purely vegetable preparation which has bene- Sited and enrent people all over the world for forty years.
Its action is mild, healing, stimulating, and tonic
It simply helps the stomach to regain its dissolvo food--removing acidity, wind, in power to form the guatrie juices necessary to after eating, and nausea.
It mildly prompts the liver to quicker action, removing headache, heaviness, drowsiness, pain in the side, depression, and nervousness.
It gently, corrects the action of the bowels, eliminating the waste and poisonous matter which is rejected in the process of digestion.
Mother Beigel's Syrup is a homely, reliable, und pleasant remedy and wherever you live something of its merit from actual experience. someone you know will be able to tell you
