ant Pellets are for the people who are
troubled with indigestion. Particularly
for those in whom it manitests itself in
the form OF constipation The "Pellets"
are quick and easy in their action They
are in perfect harmony with nature. They
effect a permanent cure, You need take
them regularly only little while. After
that. use them occasionally when you
need them-when you have eaten any
thing that dsagrees with YOU They may
be taken Just as freely as you would take
water or any other necessity of life. once
used they are always in favor

Why He Opposed Recognition.

WASHINGTON, April 2O.--It was learned 10
night from an administration source Just VIII,
the President was DESTROYS of avoiding ey.
press recognition of the Cuban republic.
Two very important practical considerations
had weight with the President.
The first was a purely military consider.
alton. He was satisfied that the United
States Army and naval forces would operate.
in the event of the recognition of the Cuban
republic, at great disadvantage. Instead
of moving under free rein, the military
forces would be obliged to treat with the
officials OF the Cuban republic at every step
as equals and allies, and he believed thew
would be very much hampered thereby in
their operations. As it is, in the event of
war, the army of the United States will move
under the orders of the President and con-
handing generals without regard to the wishes
of the Cuban insurgent officers.
Another consideration that affected him
was the statement, based on precedents, that
the conclusion of peace at the termination of
hostilities would be very much complicated
by the previous recognition on the part of the
United States of the Cuban republic, and
treaty of peace would, it is said, necessarily
be drawn between Spain, on the one hand,
and Cuba on the other, leaving the United
States, which had borne the brunt of the fight.
without voice in peace arrangements.
