A FRIENDS ADVICE.
And what it led to.

n Is not a common occurrence that a
friendly word should be the means OF CIV
ing nearly forty years of happiness and
health TO the person needing the advice ii

Lingard. At twenty-five she was dragging
out her days In misery. At sixty-one she
do work that would shame many younger
woman. and looks back on thirty-six
happy, healthfui years OF industry. But
let her tell her story:
"Thirty-six years ago I had great trouble
with my liver. The doctors allowed that
there were tumors growing on IL, and they
biistered my side in an effort TO give me

between the pain in my side and the

work was drag TO me, with no prospect
of relief; fortunately for me, however, a
friend advised me TO take DIR. Ayers Sar

CHEERING HIM.

Carried Away.

He was unquestionably an orator. But
he was not content with that gift. He de-
sired TO deliver speeches which would read
well in print. AS a result, his periods were
polished till they lost force. They would
have made more OF an impression II he had
left afew jagged edges on them. His speeches
were as famed for their soporihc qualities as
they were for their immaculate syntax, but
his wife was a confident admirer Of his pow
ers as speaker. Without taking the
trouble TO inform herself very thoroughly
on the topics he discussed, she accepted his
observations with implicit faith and un-
bounded applause. She had gone to hear
him address the legislature. After it was
over he remarked:
That speech wasn't the success we hoped
IL would be-"

cruisers. The only apprehension he felt
was as to the torpedo boats under the
Spanish admira's command, for these
are new and practically unknown ele-
ment against The modern battleship,
and Capt. Clark, while confident OF
holding out against these also said
chance blow might be struck by them.
Notwithstanding Capt. Clark's as
surances, the navy department con-
tinued TO feel that a meeting between
the Spanish squadron aud the American
battleship on such unequal terms was
far from desirable and might bring
most serious results. For this reason
the official information reaching the
authorities Wednesday was n source OF
most hearty congratulation. Where
the report came from was not made
known, but the mere fact that Secre-
tary Long regards the Oregon safe
makes II evident that she has passed
well to the northward OF the Windward
islands.
Vallejo, CAL, May 10. ~ The cruiser
Charleston got under way for Manila
shortly after ten o'clock Wednesday
morning. Statutes were fired at the
Mare Island navy yard, and the en-
ployes OF the yard and citizens of Val
leio who were assembled along the
shore vigorously cheered the departing
vessel. The compasses of the Charles
ton will be adjusted as she proceeds
down the bay. and no stop will be made
at San Francisco. On the vessel are
a number of newspaper correspond
ents, among them Mr.. Il. Langley
Jones, who has been ordered TO Manila
10 report movements OF the United
States troops there for the press.
The Charleston was heavily loaded
with ammunition for her own guns In
addition to n large supply OF powder
and proiectiles for Admiral Dewey's
feet. No troops were carried on the
Charleston, as she has no room for more
than her own crew, $50 men. The
cruiser was heavily loaded with coal,
but will not have much left when she
reaches Manila.

I'm FRIENDLY WATERS.
Secretary Long Reports the Oregon
No Longer I'm Danger-Thought TO
Have Joined SIMPSONS Fleet.

Washington, May 10.-Secretary
Long gave out the welcome information
Wednesday that the battleship Oregon,
the second largest craft in the Ameri-
can navy, had successfully completed
her long trip from San Francisco, max
ing the entire circuit of South America,
and was now safe. Whether or not she
has joined Admiral SIMPSONS fleet the
secretary would not say. The rigid
secrecy of the navy department was re-
Taxed only enough TO make known the
best news the navy department had re
ceived since the battle of Manila, as il
meant not only that the Oregon was
out of harms way from a concerted at
tack on this one ship by the whole
Spanish squadron now in southern
waters, but also that her great fighting
strength would be added 10 Admiral
SIMPSONS force in the near future, IL,
indeed, II had not already augmented
the admiral's strength.
The Oregon left San Francisco about
six weeks ago, before the war had
opened and at that time II was not adj
mitted that she was 10 join the ships in
Atlantic waters. She stopped al Callao
for dispatches and then went around
the Horn and then up the east coast Of
South America.
In all the trip covered more than 49,
600 miles. The last stretch, from Bahia
to the Windward islands, has been fol-
lowed with anxiety by naval officials,
for, by strange coincidence, the for
midable Spanish squadron of armored
cruisers and torpedo boats approached
the Windward islands at the very time
when the Oregon was due there. 1t had
been suspected that the Spanish adj
miral would try 20 intercept the battle
ship with his superior force and before
leaving Bahia Capt. Clark, of the Ore
gon, was warned TO keep a close look
out for the Spanish fleet. In reply Capt.
Clark expressed his confidence in being
able TO hold his own single-handed with
