What True Merit Will DO.

The unprecedented sale of Boschee's Ger
man Syrup within few years, has astonished
the world. IL is without doubt the safest and
best remedy ever discovered for the speedy
and etiectual cure of coughs, colds. and the
the severest lung troubles. 1t acts on an en-
tirely different principle from the usual pre-
scriptions given by physicians, as it does not
dry up cough and leave the disease still in
the system, but on the contrary removes the
cause of the trouble, heals the parts affected
and leaves them in a purely healthy condi-
tiou. A bottle kept in the house for use
when these diseases make their appearance,
will save doctors bills and long spell of
serious illness. A trial will convince you of
these facts. 1t is positively sold by all drug
gists and general dealers in the land. Price
75 cents, large bottles.

EMPLOY MENT OF MEN
For Political Pu,pOses-Statement De-
med by Commodore Harmony.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 26.

WASHINGTON, Nov 26.
Commodore Harmony today denied the
truth of the statement that several hundred
men had been given employment in the Nor
folk Navy York just prior to the last elections
for political reasons and had been dismissed
after the elections were over. Commodore
Harmony was acting secretary of the navy at
the time the appointments were made and
says about IS men were employed to perform
the work on the U. S. S. Trenton and train
ing ships, which needed repairs. The sp-
pointment were made however in accordance
with the regulations, which require them to
be made after advertising for men for four
davs
The order of Secretary Whitney forbdding
the employment of men for political purposes,
he said, would have prevented the appoint
ments as alleged. These employees are still
at work. Those who were discharged were
employed on miscellaneous work for the new
cruisers and dismissed because their work
was completed.

THE PACKING UP
In the NAVY Yard-rhe Yard Employees
Discharged and Others Employed.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 26.
Secretary Whitney has ordered the dis
charge of all employees in the civil establish.
ments of the Washington Navy Yard. with
the exception of the foreman and clerk for
each department of the yard.
The Star tonight SAYS: when the secre-
tary issued his order turning the yard over to
the ordnance bureau and directing the dis
charge of the employees in the departments
abolished by order, advantage was taken of
the provision for keeping enough force to
pack up the goods of the different branches
to retain civil establishments in the various
departments. The work of packing up will
be done hereafter by employing laborers, the
secretary not believing in retaining clerks,
watchmen and messengers for laborer's work.

ADVICE TO BUYERS 5.

If you are in search of an Oil
Stove, do not make a purchase
until you have examined The
'Dietz" Tubular and seen t in
operation. Dealers may try to
influence you to buy any Oil
Stove that they may have in
stock. This stove, if tested, will
convince the most ske ptical of
its superior merits, which CON-
pletely supereedes oil previous
forts in producing peri Getty
satisfactory stove for bur ming
kerosene oil successfully.
We hove entered upon the
fourth season of success in the
sale of this stove, and will guar
antee it's satisfactory opera ton.
1t bakes and cooks perfectly and
will burn in a draught of wind
strong enough to extinguish the
fame of many other oil stoves.
