THE BEST FOR EVERY PURPOSE.

The worst habitual drinkers can in a
few days, by the I'd of our treatment,
lose all desire for alcohol and can be
restored to their normal condition, no
more to be physical wrecks, abandoned
by their friends and ostracised by society,
butcanreturn to their homes after course
of treatment and become respected and
honored citizens. While all realize the
fearful effects of alcohol, none but the
victims of the opium or morphine habit
can conceive the misery they entail, who
alone know the torture which they must
endure, and which is declared by them a
living death. The Mt Clemens Monroe's
Gold Cure Co. can positively in ~ to 60
hours eliminate all traces of opium OF

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal. April 90
An address to the Atterican people
has been prepared by the committee
appointed to arrange for a national
Nicaragua canal convention at St.
Louis next June. The committee sub
mits that in this age of commercial
activity the United States must push
trade and commerce or it will lose its
foreign marke. and suffer financial de-
preston. The committee holds com
mercially that nothing within the
range of thought will accomplish so
much for the country Us the building
of this great waterway. 1t will
shorten the distance by sea between
the Atlantic AID Pacific coasts 10 900
miles and from the Pacific to Europe
1000 miles. 1t will open the CON-
merce OF the Pacific with the valley OF
the Mississippi gulf states and the val
ley OF the Mississippi gulf states aud
the far west will feel the vitalizing
forces OF new and better markets.
The address in conclusion says: The
defense of the Pacific coast states in
time of war should demand the
thoughtful, patriotic consideration OF
the whole country. and our congress
should aid in this great work. not as 4
menace to foreign nations. but as 4
protection to our own country and L
blessing to all other countries.
