NOtwitttstandlnir this feature of the coast, it is said that nootfcer island in the world has as many excellent harfcors In proportion to Its size. Of these Havana, Matanzas, Bahia Honda, Mariel; Nuevitas, Nipe and Cardenas, on the north Side, and Santiago de Cuba, Trinidad, Ouantanamo and Cienf uegos, on the south side, are the principal and bet known. Cuba is divided ints six provinces, Ha vana (being the most thickly populated, and Puerto Principe the least The total pop ulation of the island -before the present in surrection was more than 1,600,000, but it is 'believed that (fully 400,000 people have since died from disease and starvation. A Urge part of the island is in a (high state of cultivation, hut there are no less than 20,000,000 acres of almost impenetrable forest, fully 13,000,000 of which have nev er been disturbed toy man. But the soil which has been cultivated U nurTnlnusfrl rich and productive. To what extent this is so, is shown by the fact that, notwith standing the discouragement to industrial enterprises through the misrule of Spain, the exports in 89 000,000 Spanish dollars. The idea that Cuba is entirely unhealthy is a great mistake. The fact is that the greater part of the island, under normal conditions, is a very healthy region, and the sickly district could (be made healthy hy proper drainage. , ; The climate is mot as disagreeable as most people think. The highiest tempera tnrre 4s rarely over 82 diegrees, and the ay mae the year round is about 77 diegrees. The chief agnieu!litnina!l products are u gar, coffee and tobacco, of which the Unit ed States 'takes 'the greater part. In 1893 for example, there were 815,894 tons of su war .produced, of 'wMcb 718,204 tons wero ewportedi, -the Voated States taking 680,642 floss. Of 227,000 bales of tobacco exported two-'thaindis came to 'this counftry, together with more than hailf the 147,365,000 cigars made. But wfr jle the exports footed up to a total of 89,000,000 Spanish dollars, and be taports 56,000,000, tbe- '.taxation on the pebple reached nearly 25,000,000 Spanish dcfllans. Of tMs suim whiidh is more tUmn. one- sSxth .the -combined value of the imports ssad exports, less than one-half came from customs and oae -fourth of the whole goes d&recbly to Spain. Another popular miscomiceptioh concern rmg Ouba is that its native population is composed almost enrel.y of niegr-es. The aot is that of the 1,600,000 ,peo?le at the 3oSt oeassnjs TBore 'than 1,000,000 were whites and1 liess ;tibam 500,000 nero-s. There were 50,000 Ohiciese in ttihe islamid. Ouba is not only one of the most fertile reg'ons of the world, Ibut. is also exceed' ngly rich in min erals. T'b? iron ores are umsiurpasised, it has an abundamice of coal., an enorrmous qu?n trtry of toird woods and rich deposits of gold. The island bfl's been so -la-btle devel oped tihait possibilities can not be estimated. We shall probably see a wonderful agri cultural and industrial advance in Cuba in the next ten years. n:??1 Convent th Good Shepherd, Troy, N.

NEW MEDICAL DISCOVERY jPosittye Cure For Dyspepsia- This may read as though we were putting it a little strong .because it is generally thought by the majority of people that Dyspepsia in its chronic form is incurable, orpractically so. But w4 have long since shown that Dyspepsia is curable, nor it such a difficult matter as it first appears. The, trouble with Dyspeptics is that they are continually dietine. starving .them selves, or going to opposite extremes or else deluging the already overburdened fitomach with "hitters," "aiter dunner pills," etc., which invariably increase the difficulty even if in some cases they do give a light temporary relief. Such treaibmeni of the stomach simply makes matters worse. What the tomach wamta is a rest. Now how can the stomach become rested, recu perated and at the same time the body nourished arid sustainedf : " This is the great secret and this is also the secret of the uniform success of Stu art's Dyspepsia Tablets. This is a (com paratively new remedy, but its success and popularity leaves no doutbt as to its merits. The 'tablets wtill digest the food anyway,, regardless of condition of the stomach. The sufferer from dyspepsia accordin to directons is to eat an abundance of rood. wnoietsome food ana use the tablets before ana alter each meal and the result will be that the food will be digested no matter how bad your dyspepsia may be, because as before stated, the tablets will digest the food' even if the stomach ds wholly inact ive. To illustrate our meaning plainly, if you take 1,800 grains of meat, eggs or or dinary food and place it in a temperature of 98 degrees, and put with it one of Stu arts' Dyspepsia Tablets it will digest the meat or eggs almost as perfectly as if 'the meat was enclosed within .the stomach. The stomach may be ever so weak yet these tablets will perform 'the work of di gestion and the body and brain, will be properly nourished and at the same time av radical, lasting Lure of dyspepsia will be made because the much abused stomach wall .be given, to some extent, a much need ed rest. Tour druggist will tell' you that of the. many remedies advertised to cure dyspepsia none of them has given so com plete and general satisfaction as Stuart's 'Dyspepsia Tablets and not least in impor tance .in these hard times is the fact that they are also the cheaipest -and give the most good for the least money. , A little booklet on cause of cure of stom ach trouble sent free by addressing Stuart.
