Desperate disease :, such as rheuma-
tism, blood impurity, neuralgia or
nervous debility, that brihg down the
strength of the whole body can not be
got rid of as one does scratch or
sprain, by letting them cure them
selves. Heart weakness, kidney dis
ease, chronic headaches and enlarged
liver and spleen are not self-termi-
mating disorders. Like all the des-
pcrale diseases, they demand thought
full, scientific remedy.
There never has been a remedy so
thoroughly grounded in knowledge
OF what the sick body needs in these
diseases as Paine's celery compound.

According to the most reliable au-
thority Minister Woodford. in his in
teryiew with the Duke of Tetuan, rep
resenting the Spanish government,
made plain the interest of this country
in the struggle now going on in Cuba
and secured from the Duke an admission
that America had certain rights that
might be protected. Mr.. Woodford
also expressed the deep desire of this
country that the war should be brought
TO speedy close. This was a warning
that unless il does end soon America
will feel justified in interfering and the
Spanish government so understands.
No time was fixed and probably events
win be left TO drift along several
months longer before anything further
is done Meantime the Spanish cause
is constantly growing more hopeless.
Were it not that Cuba would be en-
tirely ruined and her people well-nigh
exterminated. there is little doubt that
a year or two longer would see her left
to herself without our Intervention as
spain would then have completely cx-
hausted herself.

Bryan's theory ofthe benefit of a ris-
ing market is right, albeit the means
he proposes to bring il about are too
radical and dangerous. Why is il that
for the past several wears purchases
Of the staple goods have been small ?
Not only because of the lessened de-
mand, but because q general feeling
prevailed that goods were to be cheap
er and il would be unwise to buy in
large quantities and perhaps suffer loss
through depreciation. 50 buying was
done ms small temporary way which
itself tended to further depreciatc
prices. But the moment the tide
turned and il became a settled conyic-
ton that prices would 90 up, notice
the change Buyers flocked TO the
markets, anxious to buy while goods
were cheap and profit by the rise. This
very demand FASTENED the upward
tendency of prices and showed beyond
question the wonderful difference be-
tween an ascending and descending
scale of prices. When a man prefers a
dollar rather than the goods ii win buy
business is bound to be poor. When
he is willing to part with his dollar in
exchange for commodities business
thrivcs.

One officer finally arose and said there
was no use discussing the matter any

he would give himself up as subject.

consequence was, his mules grazed all
