Dentistry is a complex science.
One man cannot master it. We
divide it into four departments and

A Dilemma and the Way Out.

There are thousands of Hay-Fever and
Asthma sufferers who cannot resort to a
change of climate during their annual at
tacks, either because OF the expense or be-
cause duties at home will not permit their
absence. They have to stay and suffer.
There are many, also, who are year by year
finding that places heretofore exempt are be-
coming less and less so, and they must move
on to find new locations where they can es-
cape the Hay-Fever tiend.
Now this is all wrong. When doctors tell
you that Hay-Fever cannot be cured, they
simply mean that they car not cure you.
What is it that makes one man have Hay
Fever or Asthma and another escape entire
ly right by his side, exposed to the same pol
len, same dust, same influences? The dust
is not the cause; the pollen is not the cause;
nasal growths are not the cause.
The disease Is in the blood and nervous
system; and it is the constitutional pre-dis-
position that gives power to the dust OF pol
len or other exciting influences, to awaken
the disease and make one man suffer while
another goes free.
Our constitutional treatment for Asthma
and Hay-Fever is addressed to this pre-dispo-
sition, and by changing the constitution it
eradicates the cause and cures to stay cured,
taking out of a man that which makes him
different from the man who has no disease,
and giving a robust body strong and health
ful. That these statements are correct, and
that our treatment does Just what we say,
is testified to by thousands who have tried it
and know whereof they speak. You can have
the names and addresses If you wish them.
You cannot afford to neglect investigating
this matter fully. Write to us for further in
formation. Address DIR. Hayes. Buffalo, NY

The situation was placed frankly be.

alternative of being sent home with

shipment of the Spanish troops to
Spain.
The statement hat the Spanish
proposition embraces all eastern Cuba
from Asseraderos to Sagua is impor-
sant, in that it shows the surrender
to embraces all the harbor and contigu-
Gus territory in Santiago. 1t does not
include Holguin and Manzanillo, where
the S~paniards are reported to have con-
siderable bodies of soldiers, as these
places are to the west of the surren-
