because the weather happens to be warm. If you have a weak throat, slight hacking cough, or some trouble with the bronchial tubes, summer is the best time to get rid of it. If you are losing flesh there is all the more need of attention. Weakness about the chest and thinness should never go to- gether. One greatly increases the danger of the other. Heal the throat, cure the cough, and strengthen the whole system now. Keep taking Scott's Emulsion all summer.

OF two hours duration. satisfactorily
explained matters and denied the ac-
curacy of the news published in Mad

against autonomy, all the speakers
agreeing that autonomy will not bring
peace to the island. as proved by the
protests OF the members Of the Cuban
junta OF New York and the recent
death OF Lieut.. Col. Ruiz and five other
Spanish commissioners who have been
killed by the Insurgents.
Senior Santos Guzman, a former pres

protested against it, alleging that 1t

PASSES THE LIMIT,
Retirement of National Bank Notes.
Reaches n Big Amount.

Retirement of National Bank Notes
Reaches Big Amount.
Washington, Dec. 22.-NIr. Coffin, the
acting comptroller of the currency, on
Tuesday called attention to the fact
that the retirement of national bank
notes during the first 90 days of this
month reached the sum of $4,000 900.
This is said to be the first time during
the last ten years that the voluntary
retirement has reached this amount
in any one month. Under the national
bank act the United States treasurer is
not allowed to receive for the retire.
ment of circulation more than So ,O0O,-
600 in any one month, and hence all de-
posits to retire notes during the last
ten days of this month must be re-
fused. This exceptional condition, Mr..
Coffin snys, is due to the prevailing low
rates OF interest arising from SUPER
abundance of money for investment,
which has advanced the price of United
States bonds. Mr.. Coffin expressed the
opinion that the law should be amended
in this particular, as it interferes with
the elasticity of the currency and the
natural laws Of trade,
