A FEW GOOD POINTS.

U That a person in perfect health
rarely catches a cold. 1t is only when
the system is run down and the blood
does not circulate properly that people
fall victims to colds.
e. That it is a bad sign to feel weak
and shivery and to constantly suffer
from tired, miserable feelings. If you do
not eat well, work we'll and sleep we'll,
there is evidently a weak spot in your
system.
~ That ordinary food and drink cannot
supply the great vital force required by
people who work hard with their HANDS
and brains. They need something p
stimulate their energies. promote diges-
ton and keep the blood moving. There
is nothing better for this purpose than
pure malt whiskey.
~ That there is only one really medi-
cinal whiskey and that is Duffys pure
malt. 1t is not an ordinary whiskey put
a pure stimulant that has a wonderful
effect on the system. 1t stirs up the
sluggish blood, builds III the health,
creates a good appetite and promotes
digestion. 1t prevents and it VIII cure
coughs, colds, chills. and even pneu-
monia Every reliable grocer drug
gist keeps it. Beware of inferior imita-
tions. Remember there is no other
whiskey like Duffy's and no other that
can possibly take it's place.

AGiTATOR M1UGH IN H0BoKBN
He Makes a Lengthy Address to b


The Hoboken branch of the 'Longshore-
mems Union held a meeting last nlgnt at
Russack's Hall, Bloomfield and First
streets. Edward Ntzhugh,. president of
the International Union, delivered a
lengthy address, in the course OF which ne
gave some interesting facts and data CON
corning the progress the union has mace
during the past year. He said that the
movement in this country was now on a
ffm working basis, and growing stronger
every day. Seventeen branches had pSen

vicinity. -
Arrangements were also being made, ne
said, to establish branches IN the sSut y
organization, J. Havelock Wilson, M. T.
for Middlesberough, England, was en-
gagged in organizing the seamen and nre-
men of New York Harbor and vicinity.
Five branches of the latter organization
had been established, the main brancn
being in the British ConsuPs office IN New
York.

Nothing" he said. "can be accom-

dress, in which he gave some information
of the movement he has under way. He
said that the fremen and sailors were pc
ginning to feel the necessity of a union, as
strongly as any other class of laborers,
and that in England the seamen were 50
well organized that, comparatively speak
ing. they were independent.
He cited a number of instances OF the
good the union had done to distressed
sailors, and concluded by saying that It
appeared as if the American seamen were
beginning to look upon the movement as
kindly as their brothers across the sea.
Frank Devlin, general secretary of the
International Longshoremen's Union, also
gave some interesting facts concerning the
progress the movement has made in this
country recently. Mr.. Devlin returned
yesterday from Baltimore, where he had
succeeded in establishing two branches OF
the union. :
He said that the 'longshoremen in that
city were very enthusiastic over the work,
and that their employers were beginning
to admit that the union was advantageous
