Concerning Peace,

The American Peace society of Bos-
ton speaking through its board of di-
rectors, has addressed to President Nc.
Kinley a message strongly endorsing
his policy in dealing with the relations
of the United States with Spain and
Cuba. This message says:
Humane men throughout the
world (and nowhere so strongly
as in the United Statas) deplore the dis
tress and suffering in the Cuban popu-
lation Every influence possible to the
United States should be exerted to eX-
terminate these horrible conditions, ev-
cry influence short of war. We ask for
no policy of cowardice, but of stern
self-control Sentiment and sympathy
must yield to the strong behests of
conscience. The Christian conscience
of our people insists that peace is a
nobler and more humane policy than
war. May God give to you, our hon
ored president, to the trusted cabinet,
and to the congress of the country con-
tinued strength, courage, and wisdom
TO adhere to a policy of peace. even if
1t needs great patience. We believe
that such a course as you have so far
pursued. if continued a little longer,
VIII lead to a pacific solution of all the
difficulties now pending, a solution
which will be true 10 the noblest ideas
and hopes Of our powerful Christian
nation, and at the same time in no
way false to the claims of justice and
humanity"
with this strong petition for peace,
the better sentiment of the country will
agree, under certain conditions, which
need to be more emphatically stated.
In dealing with a mad dog it is gem
orally necessary to use force. SpaiII's
course in Cuba shows that she is mad
dog among the nations. Powerless to
govern, she has shown simply madness
and venom in inflicting intolerable in
jury. Does the American Peace So
ciety imagine that career such as
Spain has shown during the last two
years of her bloody rule in Cuba can be
stopped by persuasion, diplomacy and
concession alone? Does it not demand
at once firm and, If necessary, a re-
tributive course?
If we understand the position of the
American Peace society it is not only
opposed to war, but also to prepared
ness for war--to large and efficient ma
Nies. to strong and we'll disciplined ar

WHAT rs your TRADE?
Each Trade or Occupation Has Its Special
Disease.


1t is well known among medical mon
that certain diseases are more readily
developed IN certain occupations than
IN others. That each occupation has
its attendant physical weakness. En-
gineers, railroad men and similar occu-
pations suffer mostly from kidney
troubles and men who are often ex
posed to the weather suffer from rheu
matlsm, while clerks and professional
men, in fact, the army of people whose
business keeps them indoors. are often
times great sufferers from piles and
constipation. In this connection the
following letter. is of interest to people
whose occupation will not allow suf
ficient outdoor exercise.
Mr.. A. F. Calhoun, notary public and
jeweler and matchmaker, of Circle
vile, w. Va, writes as follows:
l had been q severe sufferer from
piles for years and had tried MANY
remedies with but little benefit. when
about three years ago / saw the Pyra-
mid Pile Cure advertised and sent for
it.
I was badly afflicted when I got e.
but after only two applications the
piles disappeared, and from that day
to this 1 have never felt Symptom
of disease.
I feel that I cannot recommend it
too highly to sufferers from piles.
The Pyramid Pile Cure is free from
cocaine, opium or any mineral poison.
absolutely safe, pleasant and painless:
sold by druggists at so cents per pack,
age. If there is any constipation. the
Pyramid Pills should be used with the
pile cure. The pills are rs cents per
package.
Any druggist will tell you that the
Pyramid is the best known and most
successful and popular pile cure ever
placed on the market, and its reputa-
ton as a safe and radical cure has
only resulted from the personal recon-
mendation of people who have been
cured Of this distressing ailment.
