ical parties, we hereby submit our

/ WONDER.

Can we ever quite recover
The illusion of our youth,
When we thought the sky was heaven
And all grown folks told the truth?
But the world is bright with promise,
Fen to one who digs and delyes,
And we keep our courage fairly
Till we lose faith in ourselves.
Are there any still, wonder,
Who would live their lives again
Take the same amount of pleasure
With the heavy weight of pain!
All, the law has ordered wisely.
Which no light before us shed;
Could we make the journey, think you
If we saw the path ahead?

The arms are all attached to the same body.
Impure blood reaches out in all directions
over the human body. It stretches out a
tentacle and grasps one organ or another.
1t attacks the liver and the sufferer is said
to have liver complaint" 1t attacks the
lungs, and he is said to have consumption.
1t reaches his kidneys, and the doctors say
he has kidney disease and treat his kidneys.
These so-called diseases are only symptoms.
They all reach back to the same cause, and
that cause is impure blood. And impure
blood is usually caused by imperfect diges-
ton. The way to kill devil fish is to at
tack its head and body. It might be killed by
cutting off its arms, but itwould take a long
time. While one was being cut of, others
would fasten themselves on the victim.
The way to cure disease is to cure the
cause of the disease Ito go right at the
head of the matter. There is no use treat
ing symptoms. Disease cannot exist in
body that is perfectly. pure and full of
healthfull, strength giving properties. 1t
can be made pure by the use of DR.. Pierce's
great medicine, the Golden Medical
Discovery" 1t is because of its wonderful,
blood purifying and invigorating qualities
that this remedy is so marvellous in its eff
feet on diseases of the throat, bronchial
tubes and lungs. 1t cures ninety eight per
cent of all cases of consumption. 1t stops
lingering, chronic coughs, and builds up
those who are " rundown" emaciated or
debilitated from any cause. 1t makes sound,
firm, healthy flesh. 1t makes people strong.
It invigorates the blood, ard stimulates the
action of every organ in the body. The
three things that it does are the three things
that must be done in every case before
health can come. 1t steadies and strength
ems the nerves (; makes digestion perfect !;
makes the blood pure and rich. There is
nothing in the world just like it. There is
nothing in the world that is,' just as good"
though dishonest druggists will sometimes
tell you so, for the sake of the profit they
will make on inferior articles.

THE VENEZUELA TROUBLE.

The statement cabled from London
that the United States will not inter.
vene to prevent Great Britain from ex-
acting an indemnity OF Venezuela for
the arrest of British officers at Uruau is
not credited ct Washington, as 1t would
. be equivalent to an admission of the
State Department. In advance of the
judicial determination to be reached
through the Venezuels boundary com.
mission that the territory west of
Uruan belongs to Great Britain.
1t is believed, however. thst the
Uruau incident may serve q peaceful
and commendable purpose in forming
,she basis for renewal of the diplomatic
relations between Great Britain and
Venezuela, broken off more than ten
years ago. The United States will not
object to any agreement between Great
Britain and Venezuela voluntarily made
by the latter that does not conflict with
the Monroe doctrine, but as to forcing
an obnoxious settlement of the bound
ary dispute upon the latter, of course,
no such arrangement would be allowed.

titles. Early last December Congress
called for the correspondence which the
State Department had in reference to
THE case, but 40 fsr no response has
been made by the executive.
Is ia believed that the delay OF the
State Department in presenting to Con-
gress the correspondence In the osse has
been caused by desire OF tho admins
tration to acticAlly close the incident
before making 1t the subject OF a reply,
and. as it is expected that the corrcs :
pondence will be sent very soon is Ia
consequently assumed that some salts
factory understanding has been reached
with the French government which will
result in the release Of the prisoner.
Whether there will be any indemnity
for damage to the health OF Waller and
for pecuniary losses incurred by him Is
NO. stated.

The Late President OF the Pocahontas Coal
Company on the Roanoke Outlook.


Company on the Roanoke Outlook.
Mr.. D. n, Matson, of Roanoke. one OF
the leading citizens OF Southw Vir-
ginia. who Is prominently identified with
the coal mining in the State, Is at the
Jefferson hotel for day or two. Mr..
Matson says business in 30 snoke is get
ting in Good shape. and that the pay
roll OF the machine shops there is larger
than ever before, even during the days
Of active development in that section.
The new Office building of the Norfolk
and Western road at Roanoke, he says,
will be five stories high, cover twice as
much ground as the former structure,
and have four elevators'in 1t. When 1t
is completed 1t will afford ample and
up-to-dste accommodations for all the
officers of the road, several OF whom
now have Offices in the Gale and Terry
buildings.
Mr.. Matson thinks that Roanoke will
be the third city in Virginia, and that
as soon as more thorough effort is
made to develop the ore properties Of
the State, which will come with the
revival of trade, Virginin's material
development will equal, IL not exceed,
that OF any State in the South.-Rich-
mond State.
