Legal tender notes of both large aud
small denominations are scarce in New

About one month ago my child,
which is fifteen months old, had an
attack of diarrhoea accompanied by
vomiting. 1 gave it such remedies as
are usually given in cases, but as moth
ing gave relief, we sent for a physician
and it was under his care for a week.
At this time the child had been sick
for about ten days and was having
about twenty-five operations of the
bowels every twelve hours, and we
were convinced that unless it soon OBJ
tanned relief it would not live. Cham
berlain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy was recommended, and [ de-
cided to try it. 1 soon noticed q
change for the better; by continued
use q complete cure was brought about
aud it is now perfectly healthy.-C. l..

And now that the war is over there
remains the longer, in some ways,
perhaps, the more difficult, but incom
parably pleasanter, task of showing
that where the American flag
floats there peace and civilization
reign. says the Railway Age. How
much new territory we have added to
our empire we do not yet known, but
there is much, and in all of it there is
work of civilization to be done. Amer
lean enterprise, American energy,
idify the bonds which have been
made with the sword and paid for with
the blood of our soldiers. There will
be trade to be developed, factories to
be built, and above all. railways to be
constructed and operated. American
engineers will soon be surveying
strange lands, which six months ago
had no prospect of anything but an
eternity of stagnatiOn under Spanish
rule. American locomotive builders
will soon be filling orders for shipment
to points Of which few months ago
the American people did not even know
the name, and with the coming If the
locomotive under the Stars and Stripes
the waste and forgotten places Of the
earth will awaken to new life. With
our expansion can not fail to come q
quickening OF the national life and q
growth of all our arts and
Industries. The undertaking of
war is an awful responsible
ity at any time, and it is by no means
certain that history will enterely justi-
fy, however willingly it may pardon,
our course in entering on this one. 1t
remains for us to prove that the world
has been benefited by our actions and
that, however dreadful it was in its be-
ginning, it was for the benefit of man
kind that we fought.

giving elements of the food taken into an
