A CLcve1. Trick,
of Bathrate

It certainly looks like it, but
here is really no trick about it.
Anybody can try it who has lame
back and weak kidneys, malaria
Of nervous troubles. We mean
he can cure himself right away
by taking Electric Bitters. This
medicine tones up the whole sys-
tenn, acts as a stimulant to liver
and kidneys, is a blood purifier
and nerve tonic. It cures con-
stipation, headache, fainting
spells, sleeplessness and melan-
choly. It is purely vegetable, a
mild laxative, and restores the
system to its natural vigor. Try
Electric Bitters and be convinced
that they are a miracle worker.
Every bottle guaranteed. Only
so cents a bottle atP. c. Reming-
tons drug store.

the United States peace commission at
Paris, asking for the confidential cor.
respondence of the United States am

HAS NO OTHER COURSE:

Nothing Spain, Can Do Will Change the
Position of Americans.
PARIS, Nov. 29.-Unless there is some
change in the situation the Spanish re-
ply will be an acceptance, under pro
test, of the American offer of $40, 000,-
600 for the Philippines. Up to a late
hour kilograms have been exchanged
between the Spanish commissioners and
Madrid, but all the officials in a position
to speak with accuracy are convinced
that the foregoing is the substance of
the Spanish reply.
Senior Arbruzzi said that he is sure
there will be no break in the peace ne.
gotiations.
Marquis de Cohalas, head of various
Philippine interests, said that Spain had
nothing to do but to yield.
Determined to Take the Philippines.
"Nothing that we have done here
said the marquis, "has made any i'm.
preston upon the minds Of the Ameri-
can commissioners. From the very
first their intention was to take the
Philippines and they have never
wavered."
There is no truth in the report cabled
here from Washington that in the last
American memorandum a demand fol
the Sulu group has been added to the
previous American demands. The orig.
inal American demand was upon terri
tory within lines longitudinally and lat
itudinally defined. 1t will exclude the
so.called Sulu group. There has been
no change since the first demand, and
according to the statement of one of the
American commissioners there will be
no modification of it.

Gunnison is excited over case OF shop
lifting by woman Of the gasliRht side OF
life. The papers charge that the busi-
ness men do not give officers the support
they should in enforcing the laws Shop
lifting is a difficult problem for mer-
chants to deal with. Years agone one OF
the large Denver department stores had
an experience that decided them to never
again prosecute any person for this Of
Tense. The decision grew out OF the case
of wealthy and popular society woman
being detained for purloining goods, and
the affair cost the firm thousands OF
dollars in loss of trade among friends OF
the accused. From that day to this the
store has never made criminal charges
against shop-lifter, but their guards
usually succeed in reclaiming the stolen
goods from guilty parties. who are very

Those are two pretty sick old warships
that the Kaiser has sent to the Chinese
coast. They had to stop for coal at Spit
head to enable them to steam to Gibral-
TAR. They are ships OF former age.
We believe that either one Of our new
cruisers has coal-carrying capacity to
steam at half speed further than from
Kiel to Hongkong. Evidently the Kaiser
was counting upon making conquest Of
territory possessed by a non resisting
power. 1t is a dangerous experiment.
Suppose Japan should suddenly make an
alliance with China and send few Of
her great cruisers to drive the Germans
back. 1t would not be strange il she
should, for Japan's salvation depends
upon breaking up the purpose to parti-
tion China, and then blood is thicker
