of the diseases that afIlict mankind are
traceable directly to indigestion torpidity

Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is
the greatest medicine for disorders of this
nature. 1t strengthens a weak stomach,
corrects all disorders of the digestion, gives
edge to the appetite, invigorates the liver,
purifes and enrches the blood and tones
up and invigorates the nerves. 1t searches
out disease germs, kills them and carries
them out of the system. 1t is the great
blood maker flesh builder and nerve-tonic
and restorative. 1t makes strong, healthy

would be satisfactory TO the United
States and the Cubans, and it wopld
bring about peace on the island. Spain's
proposal is generally believed in Wash.
ington to have come too late President
Mckinley and the Spanish diplomats
have given up hope of averting war and
with characteristic patience are ready
to consider anything that might lead to
q peaceful solution of the question. De-
tails of Spain's new plan were not made
known by Minister Polo, but he ex.
planned to Assistant Secretary Day that
Spain would not yield her sovereignty
over Cuba. She would give the island
home rule, withdraw her troops and ex.
ercise the most limited authority. bnt
her flag must remain over Cuba
1t was also plainly stated by the min.
mister that the independence of Cuba
could not be bought with money
