no one regretted it more than your hum

Lieut.. L.afferty, if at his haome and
able TO command a million dollars. could
not have secured higher medical talent or
better nursing than he received in the Of
ficerS' ward at the general hospital at
Camp WikOff, with everything in the world
TO prove contrary.
No One Could Please Mrs. Lafferty.
Mrs. Lafferty, Lieut.. Lafferty's moth

The Cost of Freeing Cuba.

The United States are certainly entitled TO
retain possession of the Philippine islands it
the peace commissioners 30 decide, for tha
cost of the war runs far into the millions,
and the end is not yet. The money paid out
reaches an astonishing total. To free the
stomach, liver, bowels and blood of disease,
however, is not an expensive undertaking. A
few dollars invested in Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters will accomplish the task easily. The.
poor as well as the rich can afford it.

Washington, Oct. THE steady
and rapid growth of our commerce
with the orient is illustrated by q
statement just received by the treas
ury bureau of statistics showing the
imports and exports of Japan during
the first half of the present calendar
year. This shows that Japan's pur-
chases from the United States con-
tinue to increase with great rapidity,
while in many cases those which she
has been accustomed to make from
other parts of the world are being re-
duced.

Heavy Importations of Raw Cotton.

l1er lmpOrtatlOnS OF raw cotton
from the United States in the first six
months of 1895 were 12,7 1872 ,O64 yen in

900 yen, showing a general reduction
firm other parts of the world, while
the Imports from the United States
were more than trebled.
Iron and Steel Goods.
Our manufactures of iron and
steel seem to be especially satisfactory
to the Japanese, the increase in nearly
all articles of this class being strongly
marked.
The finer grades of American manu-
facture also seem to be finding spe-
cial favor among the japanese, i'm
ports of American watches having in
creased from 95,511 yen in the first
half of last year to 1856 500 yen in the
first half of the present year, while
our W records of expectations show
an increase in exports of typewriters,
sewing machines and other articles of
this class to Japan in the fiscal year
Just ended as compared with those of
the preceding year.
Trade with China Increasing.
To China our sales also show a
gratifying increase in many articles.
The total exports from the United
States to China in the month of Au-
gust, 1898, were s1,432,o11 against
s77o,57O in the corresponding month
of last year.
