Mrs. Rhode Moan. or this place, was
taken in the night with cramping pains
and the next day diarrhoea set in. She
took half bottle of blackberry cordial
but got no relief She then sent to me
to see if had anything that would help
her sent her a bottle Of Chamber
lain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy and the first dose relieved her.
Another of our reighbors had been sick
for about a week and had tried dit
ferent remedies for diarrhoea but kept
getting worse. I sent him this same
remedy. Only four doses of it were re-
uuired to cure him. II says he owes
his recovery to this wonderful remedy.

"The big stage coach upon got
The hosses seemed TO sorter trot
And there I sot and sot and sot.
Just kinder ON the selfsame spot.

The cushions padded had been not:
To WANT like scootng on a yacht.
The driver did not give a drot"

VENEZUELAN BOUNDARY QUESTION.
An Incident That Is Nearly Closed Some
talk About Seals.

The Venezuelan boundary question
has ceased to be a matter of difference
between Great Britain and the United
States, their respective governments
having agreed upon the substantial
provisions of treaty between Great
Britain and Venezuela submitting the
whole controversy to arbitration. The
provisions of the treaty are SO eminent
ly just and fair. that the assent of Ven
ezuela thereto may confidently be an
ticipated. Negotiations for a treaty of
general arbitration for all differences
between Great Britain and the United
States are far advanced and promise to
reach a successful cansummation at an
early date.
With the foregoing the whole sub
ject is dismissed and the president
takes UP the subject of reform in Cie
consular service. which he advocates
on merit system lines. and also urges
the providing of residences for our
ambassadors abroad. Then he takes
up the seal question and says:
We have during the past year la
bored faithfully and against unfavore-
BILE conditions TO secure better preser-
walton of seal life in the Behring sea.
Both the United States and Great Brit
ain have lately dispatched commission
erS TO these waters to study the habits
and condition of the seal herd and the
causes Of their rapid decreas Sc. J-pon

ercise of patience and good sense on
the part OF all interested parties, It is
earnestly hoped that hearty co-opera-
tiCn may be secured fer the protection
against threatened extinction OF sesi
life IN the northern Pacific and Bshr.rs

The entire case may be presented by
the statement that the day Of sensible
and sound financial methods viii not
dawn upon US until our government
abandcns the banking businlSs and the
accumulation OF funds. and confines its
monetary operations to the receipt 81
