Lord Beaconsfield married for
money, but though his wife was Is

py one. She was his confidante, adviser
and helpmeet, and the hours he spent
with her in retirement were the hap
piest of his life.

Goods.

There is IA great deal more in
keeping your stock clear of all
old goods, whether they be in
bulk or in containers of any
kind. we don't believe it pays
to keep goods that do not sell.
There may be various reasons
why they are not saleable. For
instance the wrong class. or f
not the wrong class, the wrong
grade, perhaps too high grlle
or of an inferior quality. Such
goods are not desirable at G'ty
price, and we have always US
ed the precaution of buying
just what was suited for this
market and placed them on our
counters at prices that would
create an immediate demand.
In that way our stock never gets
old. Our long business expert
ence in this city gives us n
clear insight into the needs of
our customers and we are wv
proud to be able to say that
they are always more than sat-
isfied with their purchases.

scrofula sore appeared on my left cheek,
extending from my upper lip to my eye.
Other sores came on my neck and on my
right arm and one of my limbs. They
were very troublesome and painful and
soon became great running sores. My
face looked so bad that some of my
neighbors could not bear to look at me
and advised me to wear a bandage, but

regardless OF denomination:
The Sunday preceding the Fourth Of

tenders.
For this reason the National Relief
Commission earnestly requests pastors
and churches Of all religious commun-
ions in the United States, upon the Sd
day of July or the most convenient
Sabbath or Sunday following the
Fourth OF July to take a collection for
the relief of suffering soldiers, sailors
and marines in the nations service,
and of such families Of the same as
may be in need.

$500 square miles.
From east to west it is traversed by
range of hills. The highest district
Is In the Sierra de LOguillo, near the
southeast coast, where the peak of FL
1unque rises more than 900 feet. The
island is watered by about 300 streams
OF which nearly fifty are considerable
rivers, The hills are pretty generally
covered with forests.
The island was declared province of
Spain in 1870 and is divided into seven
departments or districts. The princi-
pal cities are San Juan de Porto Rico.

the north coast, with 5000 inhabitants.
1t is built on an island connected with
the main by bridge and causeway.
and magnificent highway connects
with the city Of Ponce ON the southern
coast. San Juan is one of the most
compact of cities, built on peninsula
terminated by a great fortress and in
closed within high walls. Entrance is
only to be obtained through well-yuard-
ed gateways, from the lower batteries
and the mole, while sentinels stand
vigilant on every parapet. 1t is only
by stealth that photographs can be
taken of these grim gray walls, the
Spanish officials seeming to think that
they are as effective for defense as in
the days they We're first built. two or
three hundred years ago.
The port, according to an American
who has recently left that place. is ina
falr condition of defense. and will be
able to hold its own for some time
against our fleet. The town was orig.
inally protected by "a wall of stone,
which completely encircled it. This
mas to some extent disappeared. but is
still good on the side next the sea.
The wall is of stone, thirty feet thick
at the base and some twenty at IN,
top, and is about forty feet high. Il is
considered invulnerable except from
the heaviest guns. The Spaniards
have recently erected some fifteen or
sixteen ten-inch guns in modern hat
teries, and have also planted. the har-
Dor with mines and torpedoes.
