La Grippe.

During the prevalence of the Grippe
the past seasons it was noticeable
fact that those who depended upon
Dr. Kings New Discovery, not only
had speedy recovery, but escaped all
of the troublesome after effects of the
malady. This remedy seems to have
a peculiar power in eifecting rapid
cures not only in cases of La Grippe,
but in all diseases of Throat, Chest and
Lungs, and has cured cases of Asthma
and Hay Fever of long standing. Try
it and be convinced, 1t won't dissa

Abridge him of none Of the ''ina

his race or color. Give to him just.

The Government Has Suspended
Telegraphic News.
NO EXPLANATION HAS BEEN GIVEN
Internal Troubles Are Known to Exist
and the President Has Been Asked
to Resign--Troops Are
in Fighting Trim.

New YORK, Sept. S.-The CONNER
cial Cable company and the South Amer

Wall street, posted a notice that the Bra
lillian government has suspended all tele-
graphic communication to and from
Brazil for the present.
This order, however, will not Interfere
with kilograms passing through Brazil

shrugged his shoulders and said he had
nothing to say, and could give no reason.
The Herald, however, has Tong cable
dispatch from Montevideo which says
the naval fleet now at Rio Janeiro has
intimated to President Piezotto that he
should resign.
The demand was made through Ad-
miral Custodio Jose Melo. In Fortress
Santa Cruz is situated a garrison loyal
to the Piezotto administration, who are
under fighting orders and awaiting an
attack by the squadron.

The Lesson Of the Times.

Many a man subsists from day to
day from his daily wage, with moth
ing to lean upon for support, should
sickness or adversely overtake him.
Living as it were, from hand to
mouth, saving naught, what awaits
him and family but suffering and
want-subjects for the cold charity
of the world.
The present "hard times" teaches
a lesson-the lesson Of economy.
We must quit living up with
what we make and save part for
the time of need-sure to come to
every one. Cut off that tobacco
bill and all useless expenses. Lay
by part Of each days labor, by eat
ing less, if needs be, and wearing less
costly clothes. No sacrifice too
great can be made to save enough
to buy yourself a home, educate the
children and have small sum to
put away to fall back upon in case Of
sicknes or adversely.

Undesirable Immigrants Is the Dangerou
Feature to This Country.


WASHINGTON, Sept. S.-Marine hospi-
