Two Kinds Of Men.

The American Machinest of New
York sends out card which reads:
Some men won't advertise when
they are busy-they think it will
last forever.
Some men won't advertise when
times are dull-think the crack of
doom is just about to the city line.
There are others who advertise
all the time.
The latter attract inquiries and
orders, and in good times can pick
what they want.
In dull times they get all there is
going-the other fellow is out of
business.
One is an optimist in prosperity,
a pessimist in adversely and a mar
row-gage weakling all the time.
The other is just a plain. common
sense business man.
What kind are you?

Of our people, and
Whereas, The laws Of Texas per-
init such dissertations where no en-
trance OF admittance fees are

Whereas, Such Sunday reorea-

not violate the legal phases OF the
statute, yet the moral intent OF
the law is violated by its evasion,
and thus its true animus is shown
not by charging admittauce, but
by taking a public collection &c

International Arbitration.

At the Geneva Conference to
arrange international disputes there
was strenuous advocacy on the part
of the United States and other
powers in favor of the settlement
of national differences as to bound
arises, port custom duties, &C, by
an international court and not by
the bloody arbitrament of war.
But like many subjects, reasonable
enough in their origin, it has died
out of mems minds. But there is a
theme of comment, and that Is the

his wife comment less favorablY on
the excellent effects of the Bitters
in cases of chills and fever, rheuma-

fective. think such supplies as the
Spaniards now control will not last
them more than month.
"Then steps taken with view to in
oreasing the equipment of Gomez's
soldiers and furnishing them with suffi-
cient hard tack for food will enable him
to harass the Spaniards from the rear,
which will materially assist in bringing
them to terms. My own individual
idea is it will probably take two months
to bring about the results which will
compel the Spaniards to evacuate ana
enable the island to be occupied by the
United States without molestation.
mo; the United States government
will not issue any letters of marque and
reprisal nor countenance privateering,
but if the Spanish government chooses
to enter upon this line of warfare she
will have to deal with the nations of
Europe, with whose commerce she seeks
to interfere"

ARMY ON WAR FOOTING.
Bill Ready For Congress to Make the
Necessary Changes.

Bill Ready For Congress to Make the
Necessary Changes.
WASHINGTON, April 2O.-The war de.
partment bill to provide for temporarily
increasing the military establishment in
time of war is ready for transmission
to congress.
In time Of war the army is to consist
OF two branches, the regular and the
volunteer army, the latter to be main.
tanned only during the existence Of war
or while war is imminent and is to be
raised and organized only after con-
gress authorizes it.
All enlstments for the volunteer
army are to be for three years unless
sooner terminated. All the regimental
and company officers Of the volunteer
army are to be appointed by the presi
dent, upon the recommendations of the
governors of the states in which their
respective organizations are raised.
Concerning the national guard it is pro-
vided that when the members of any
company or regiment of the organized
militia shall enlist in the volunteer
army in body, as such company or
regiment, the regimental and company
officers in service with the militia
organization thus enlisting may be ap.
pointed by the president, subject TO an
examination as to fitness and capacity
to be officers Of corresponding grades in
the same organization when it is re-
ceived in the service as a part of the
volunteer army.
The troops in time of war, whether
belonging to the regular or volunteer
army, or to the militia, are to be orga-
nized into divisions of three brigades,
each brigade to be composed of three or
more regiments and when three or more
divisions are assembled in the same
army the president is to organize them
into army corps, each corps to consist of
not more than three divisions. The
president is to appoint in the volunteer
army not exceeding one major general
for each organized army corps and
division and one brigadier general for
each brigade, to be selected from the
regular or volunteer army or the militia

WITHOUT PAIN.
A Medical Discovery That .Effectually
Cures Piles in Every Form.

A Medical Discovery That SEffectually
Cures Piles in Every Form.
For many years physicians have ex-
perimented in vain, seeking a remedy
which would effectually cure piles and
other rectal troubles without resorting
to surgical operation. Many remedies
we're found to give temporary relief, but
none could be depended upon to make
lasting, satisfactory cure.
Within a recent period, however, a
new remedy, the Pyramid Pile Cure, has
been repeatedly tested in hundreds of
cases and with highly satisfactory re-
suits.
The first effect of the Pyramid Pile
Cure is to instantly remove the pain
and irritation generally present and
from that time on the cure rapidly pro-
crosses and before the PATIENTS hardly
aware of it he is entirely cured. The
remedy seems to act directly on the
nerves and blood vessels of the parts af.
fected as ii comes into direct contact
with them and sets up healthy action,
which in perfectly natural way brings
the parts to their normal condition.
The remedy does its work without any
pain or Inconvenience to the sufferer and
is justly considered one of the most
meritorious discoveries Of modern medi.
cine,
Piles is one Of the most annoying and
oftentimes dangerous diseases with
which humanity is afflicted. If neglect
ed it frequently develops into fstula or
some equally fatal or incurable trouble,
whereas by the timely use of this simple
but effective remedy no one need suffer
single day from any form of piles uu-
less they want to.
The Pyramid Pile Cure is perfectly
harmless, containing no mineral poisons
and is also very reasonable In price. 1t
Is sold in drug stores everywhere at 70
cents per package, The manufacturers
Of the remedy are the Pyramid Drug 90
OF Marshall, Mich, who have placed
this preparation before the public only
after giving 1t thorough and repeated
tests In the hands Of reputable physi-
clans. The results in hundreds OF cases
have convinced us that 1t will not dis
appoint you.

Captain Brainard Relieved at suggestion
of Rev. Dr. sheldon jackson.
WASHINGTON, April 19.-The COM
plete failure of the Alaskan reindeer
expedition is announced to the war de-
partment in a telegram from Brigadier
General Merriam, commanding the mil
itary department of the Columbia.
This telegram summarizes report
from DIR. Sheldon Jackson at Dyea, 30
the effect that reindeer are failure in
Alaska for want of proper forage and
useless for all the exploring expeditions
in Alaska; that many are already dead,
but moss has been found by which part
of the herd may be saved; that the time
lost will compel the reorganization Of
exploring expedition No 1, If it is to go
on, but ON the advice of Captain Ray
and his own Judgment, DIR. jackson
recommends the recall Of the expedition.
Acting on the recommendation Of
General Merriam, an order was issued
at the war department relieving Captain
Brainard from further duty with the
expeditions in Alaska.

PHILADELPHIA, April 20.-A naval
board, composed of Captain Sigsbee,
Lieutenant Commander Winslow and

ment, The result Of the examination
and the recommendations made by the
board will not be made public here, as

The members of the board examined
the st. Paul very thoroughly and, it is
said, found the vessel in excellent con-
dition.
1t is stated that the board has not de.
cided whether to recommend that armOr
be placed on the st. Paul. This would
delay the work ON the vessel and it is
expected that the board will recommend
that the st, Paul go to sea as an un.
