best in the world, because
the cuttings are perfect and

Tea Importation.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 23.-The pro-
posed new system of regulating the
importation of tea into the United
States, which was presented to the
ways and means committee of the
House recentely by representatives of
the trade of the United States, was
approved by the committee today. 1t
was decided to recommend to the
House the bill which the tea men
drew and which has been approved
by the treasury Department with GER
tain changes. The purpose of the sys-
TEN is TO prevent the Importation of
impure tea. The plan contemplates
the appointment of board of seven
tea experts, who are to be selected
by the Secretary of the Treasury to
hold Office for one year and to estab-
lish standards of tea. The bill makes
it unlawful to import teas not up to
the standards.

My son Joseph" writes Mr.. Joseph
Bond of Salter's Green, Mayfield, Sus-

come ON like other children. He was
weakly, sickly and puny. He ate
but little, and was usually in pain
until he vomited most of it up
again. Nothing gave him strength
Ii February, 1894, his feet and
ankles began to fester Next three
abscesses formed ON his neck and IN
der the chin, making deep holes. He
was merely skin and bone. The alb
scesses' seemed to be eXhausting his
life's blood. He was in doctors care
five months, but got no better From
July, 1894, he had four months treat
ment at the Tunbridge Wells Hospital,
without benefit. The doctors gave him
medicines and cod-liver oil, but moth
ing strengthened him.
In December, 1894, l concluded TO
take the case into my own hands, and
gave him a medicine that had cured
my wife-Mother Seigefs Syrup. To
our astonishment and delight he be-
gan to improve in a few days. He
could eat, and was stronger for it. We
kept giving him the Syrup, and he
grew better every day. The assesses

1t is reported that United States is
opening communications with Den
mark with a view to the purchase of
Greenland from Denmark. The i'm
mediate object of this purchase is that
this country might have some part in
the direction of the navigation of
Hudson's strait, which in time to to be-
come an important highway for the
traffic from Winnipeg to the Atlantic
seaboard and thence to Liverpool.
The recent hosting of the British flag
over Baffin's land has probably accen-
tuated the need of the United States
having some shore north of Maine on
the eastern seaboard of this continent,
and Greeland would best answer that
purpose. II this is done hear the
Britishers at home and abroad howl
over acquisition Of territory by the

Great Britain takes the same view
of our relations to Spain and Cuba
that so many of our most enlightened
statesmen do. She recognizes the
strain that the situation there is upon
us, upon our commerce, upon our ma
val and revenue forces, upon our cap
ital invested there and makes no
bones of saying that had it
been Great Britain that was interest
ed as we are there would have been
Intervention long ago. There is no
doubt of that, nor is there any doubt
that If the wishes of the American
people had been regarded Intervention
would have come a year ago. 1t is
certain that it cannot be much longer
delayed and when Congress assemblies
something is going to drop. Matters
cannot remain as they are and the
change will benefit us and Cuba.
