BABY's SMOOTH, FAIR SKIN

A Grateful Mother Writes this Letter -
Tells all about Her Troubles when
Baby Broke out with Scrofuia Sores.
"At the age OF two months, my baby
began to have sores break out on his right
cheek. We used all the external ap-
plications that we could think or hear Of,
to no avail. The sores spread all over one
side of his face. We consulted a physi-
clan and tried his medicine, and in week
the sore was gone. But to my surprise in
two weeks more another scrofulous look
ing sore appeared on baby's arm. 1t
grew worse and worse, and when he was
three months old, began giving him
Hoods Sarsaparilla. / also took Hoods
Sarsaparilla, and before the first bottle
was finished, the sores were well and have
never returned. He is now four years old,
but he has never had any sign Of those
scrofulous sores since he was cured by
Hoods Sarsaparilla, for which feel very
grateful. My boy owes his good health
and smooth, fair skin to this great med
icine." MRS. s. S. WRoTEN, Farming
ton, Delaware. Get only Hoods.

Foul smelling
Catarrh.

Catarrh is one of the most obstinate
diseases, and hence the most difficult
to get rid of.
There is but one way to cure it.
The disease is in the blood, and all the
sprays, washes and inhaling mixtures
in the world can have no permanent
effect whatever upon it. Swi;t's Spe-
cific cures Catarrh permanently, for it is
the only remedy which can reach the
disease and force it from the blood.

the speedy retirement of the German

the ships shows that the Irene was much
superior to either of the American ves-
sells. and in tonnage was almost as large
as the Raleigh and Concord together.
From this it is inferred that the retire

| On the bulletin giving General Miles
dispatch was written underneath the
dispatch the following: Permission
to withdraw was declined by war de-
partment."
A few days ago it was stated that the
president would insist upon uncondi-
tional surrender. but it appears that
conditions had been modified. This was
done from a desire to avoid useless
bloodshed, for General Toral's army
removed to Spain, would be harmless to
prevent our further operations in Cuba
and would serve as good a purpose as
would the destruction of the Spanish
army. To allow the Spanish general to
withdraw to the interior and fall back
on Havana on the other hand would put
US under the obligation of overcoming
that additional force when 1t comes to
the siege of Havana. Our government
also is moved to make this proposal to
remove the Spanish forces to Spain
through a strong desire to close up the
operations at Santiago at the earliest
possible moment.
This desire has been materially
strengthened by the appearance of yell
low fever within the American lines.

does not surprise the medical officers of

preparation that science can suggest to

fever. but it is fully realized that men

IT is impossible to describe the terrible
bombardment of Las Tunas. The
American monitor moved up to within
,0OO yards of the fort and Spanish bat
terry. The monitor was decked with
an American flag and with officers at
every available point on the deck from
stern to poop. with battle flag in each
hand. The accompanying gunboat
steamed in behind the monitor and
opened fierce fire. sending not less than
1000 shells. Meanwhile the Spanish
battery opened in reply vigorously. The
Spanish general. Estruct. with his staff
seemed everywhere in the most dan
serous places. giving orders with great
deliberation and apparent unconcern.
About three hours after the firing be-
gan. finding the attack a hopeless one,
the American vessels retired. The
Spanish lost one killed and l3 wounded,
chiefly among the volunteers and citi-
zens.
