cHINAoAND JAPAN.
Probability That Peace Negotiations
Will BE Soon Resumed.

Will BE Soon Resumed.
Now that the limited armistice has been
proclaimed in the tChinsse-Japanese war,
and that Ii Hung Changs wound is i'm
proving, it is anticipated that the resump-
ton Of peace negotiations will follow
speedily and will be pushed with the view
to securing treaty of peace as early as
possible. The indemnity and the form in
which it shall be, paid is one part Of the
terms of peace which is being watched
with interest. The money indemnity Japan
will ask will he very considerable. There
Is no information to be had concerning the
mode or manner of payment, nor whether
it will stipulate the metal in which it shall
be paid, assuming that gold or silver or
both must be paid. One suggestion made
is that it may be payable in Credits or
largely in ponds. The financial probity of
the Chinese is OF the highest, and the ma
tons reputation for prompt settlement of
its pecuniary obligations is so high that 1t
is believed its promises to pay would easily
pass current with the Japanese, or with
others, in case the indemnity were ar
ranged through private fiscal agencies. The
armistice will last twenty-one days, unless
sooner terminated by the breaking off of
peace negotiations. and would include
Smuggling. Shan-Tung and Pe-Chil-i.

Neod for Moro ooaling stations.

WASHINGTON, April 25.-The recent ex-
perience of Admiral Meade in his cruise
with a squadron through the waters of
the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean
sea has served to again attract the atten-

ment to the necessity of acquiring at least
one or two coaling stations in those waters
for the use of the navy Although the
cruise lasted only few weeks the diff
Guilty of procuring a sufficient supply of
coal at convenient points and at reason
able prices has strikingly indicated the
trouble that may be expected when it shall
be necessary to maintain for long periods
of time, or perhaps permanently, a num-
ber of cruising gunboats in those waters.

A NAV nIN0 IRT BY T0E SHlKT9S.

For n ore than hundred years the
Mount LeJHuou Shakers have studied the
cultivation of medicinal plants and
sought to extract frop, them their heal.
lug essences. Their labor has not been
spent in vain. They have made a dis
covery that will prove blessing to man
kind. 1t consists of cordial that causes
immediate relief in cases of indigestion.
The Importance Of this discovery will be
apparent when we realize that nearly
nine-tenths of all our sufferinps are
caused by dyspepsia or indigestion.
Nearly every person you meet has this
digestive trouble in some of its varied
forms-sick headache distress after eat.
ing, pain and fullness in the chest after
eating, palpitation of the heart, etc. are
but symptoms of indigestion. To re.
lieve these sufferings has been the study
of the Shakers, ana they have succeeded.
The reason the Shaker Digestive Cordial
has such an immediate and salutary
effect is that it causes the food eaten to
be digested, for it is undigested food that
causes the distress. The cordial causes
the food to be digested before there is
time for it to ferment and sour on the
stomach. When the food is so digested it
gives strength and vigor to the feeble
body, makes one feel bright and cheerfulI |
and makes one gain in flesh.
The Digestive Cordial is so prompt in
It's action that the very first dose will
have a perceptibly favorable result 1t
gives immediate relief.
In order to prove this statement, small
trial bottles placed in the druggists
hands can be obtained for ten cents eachy
This trial bottle will have decided bene.
