The People Believe
What They Read About Hoods
SarSaparilla
Their Faith in This Medicine is
Grounded on Merit
They Kno" IL absolutely Cures
Whom Other Medicines Fail

Hoods Sarsa oaril!a IL not merely SIM
pie preparation :. Sarsaparilla, Dock,

Besides these excellent alternatives, it
also contains those great anti bilious and
liver remedies, Mandrake and Dandelion.
l. also contains those great kidney RENE
dies, iva Ursi, Juniper Berries, and
Pipsissewa.
Nor are these all. Other very valua BILE
curative agents are tremendously COM
bined in Hoods Sar3aparilla, and it is
carefully prepared under the personal
supervision OF regularly educated Dhar-
macist.
Knowing these facts, is the abiding faith
the people have in Hoods Sarsa partIIa
matter Of surprise? You can see why
Hoods Sarse parilla cures, when other
medicines totally, absolutely fail.

NEW MINISTER FROr1 JAPAN
A Successor to Fir. Toru HoShi Will
 Be Chosen.

Washington, Sept. 12.-TEc Japa- ntse minister, MT. Tori Hoshi, has been elected to the Japanese parlia- ment, and as result he will retire from the post here, the present indi- cations being that his successor will be MT. Hatoyama, a leading member Of Court Okumas party. a prominent lawyer of Iokio and man well versed in American affairs, being a graduate of Yale MT. Hoshi left here some weeks ago on leave of absence, in order to participate ir the parlia- mentary clectiors, his purpose being to return lis fall. He had been men toned for a cabinet portfolio, and it was thought he might take either the ministry of justice or of foreign af- fairs His election removes him to the legislative field. The appoint ment of his successor to Washington is attracting much interest in Japan owing to the interest Japan takes in the determination of the Philippine question. MT. Aatoyama, whose name is most prominently mentioned, is particularly well qualified for the post Eere. owing to his familiarity with the language and his long residence in the United States.

Another thing, my weight had increased about seven pounds while l had lain in bed, so they passed me through with a rush.
 ''Of course. tho first thing l did was to call on the young doctor and fall on his neck in fit of rejoicing. He gave me the doctors lingo in explaining the req son I had grown temporarily taller and stouter, which. in plain United States was because men who are on their feet most of the time jam their knee bones closer together than men who take plc of rest and sit down q good deal. There is always a lot of oil between the two bones, which forms sort of cushion, but that is forced out by much walking, or standing and makes man shorter The young doctor saw that all I needed to get that eighth of an inch was good Ions. rest and a chance to let the oil ac- cumulate between the bones of the joints.

AGREEMENT NOT PRECISE.
Foreign Office Says Anglo-German
 Treaty Relates to China and Africa.

London, Sept. 12.-The PalI Mall Ga Zette this afternoon says it has complete confirmation of the existence of an An- Elo-German agreement. which is mainly commercial, but. the paper adds. which provides a basis for the adjustment of all differences regarding territorial questions in all parts of the world.
 The Pall Mall Gazette also published alleged details of the agreement said to have been arrived at between Great Britain and Germany, but they were rot cabled to the Associated sPrcss. as the officials of the foreign office here said they were far beyond the truth.
 The foreign office officials added that the agreement is yet incomplete. It re- lates generally to Anglo-German inter- ests in China. Africa, and elsewhere, but it is not precise in its stipulationS,
