Robbed the Grave

A startling incident, Of which
Mr.. John Oliver of Philadelphia
is the subject, is narrated by him
as follows: "I was in a most
dreadful condition. My skin was

by day. Three physicians had
given me up. Fortunately,

There is more Catarrh in this
section of the country than all
other diseases put together, and
until the last few years was sup
posed to be incurable. For a
great many years doctors pro-
nounced it local disease, and
prescribed local remedies, and by
constantly failing to cure with
local treatment, pronounced it
lncurable. Science has proven
catarrh to be a constitutional dis
ease and therefore requires con-
stitutional treatment. Halls Ca
tarrh Cure, manufactured by F.
j. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio,
is the only constitutional cure on
the market. 1t is taken internally
in doses from 10 drops to a tea
spoonful. 1t acts directly on the
blood and mucous surfaces of the
system. They offer one hundred
dollars for any case it fails to
cure. Send for circulars and tes-

POOR ROADS.
o the Editor Of the Pi.ess:

To the Editor Of the P'ess:
We hear much from the bicyclers about
good roads. One would really like to
know where the good roads are. Ger rtain-
ly not within five miles Of Portland, In
order to find road in comfortable shape
for driving ono must go about five miles
from this city in any direction. The
roads In South Portland are very poorly
kept-in Cape Elizabeth the roatis are
good. The roads In the Deering district
are poorly looked after. In Windham the
ro ads are good SO also in Scarborough.
The most annoying feature about the
city within the five miles radius is the
abundance OF small, loose stones, from
two to four inches in diameter almost
everywhere found. This is wholly mex
cusabis, as it would be matter of small
expense to clesr the roads of these and
keep them clear. A man with a garden
rake could clear long stretch In q day.
When one considers how annoying and
how dangerous loose. rolling stones In a
road are. 1t is surely no exaggeration to
say that the roads about us are q disgrace
to this city and the adjoining towns.
IL would seem that our Street Commits
sion would do we'll TO set a decent ex'
ample to our neighbors. Where people
are accustomed TO good roads loose stones
are not tolerated, and they should not be

The story has heen in circulation for
some days that efferts were making to
freeze Alger out Of the cabinet. 1t has
been alleged that as part Of the freezing
process. he had been ignored in regard to
recent army appointments, that his ad
Vice had not beea asked and that impor.
t,nt cebiret meetings hadjbeen held with
oat calling him in. We imagine all these
talss ara largely the concoctions Of
imaginative or msndacious correspondents
If President Mckinley were so anxious
to ges rid of Alger as these stories indi-
oats he would hardly resort to such sub
tsrfuges as are alleged. Alger has de.
clared that he would go when he was
asked TO go Ly the President. The Pres
ident has but to say the word and there

process would never be resorted to out OF
respect for MIR. Alger's feelings, for it Ii
far more unfeslinR than the direct pro-

do not believe, it has had no effect SO

that he shall not resign this year-that Is
unless he is asked directly to do SO.
