gist and Inventor Of Pe-ru-na, Of
fers to Treat Women Free During
the Summer Months.

America is the land of nervous women
The great majority of nervous women are
SO because they are suffering from some
form of female disease. By far the great
est number of female troubles are caused
by catarrh.
Women afflicted with pelvic catarrh de-
spair of recovery. Female trouble is SO
as almost inevitable. The greatest obsta-
Gle i'll the way OF recovery is that they do
not understand that it is catarrh which is
the source of their Illness In female com
plant, ninety cases out of one hun
dred are nothing but catarrh. Peruna
cures catarrh wherever located.

THE STRONG MAN AND TIE BABY.
Story That VIII Convey IorGl Lesson
to Fathers.

to Fathers.
A chap who had been the strong man
of his class as COLI -, who held the
amateur championship as u hammer
thrower and had lifted 800 pounds dead
weight, was wont to brag Of his Prov
ess.
MY muscles are like iron" he would
say. II am never tired. l can outrun
trolley car any reasonable distance,
Ny lungs have an expansion Of FIVE
and three-e ighths inches. I'm as hard
as nails, and old Mr. Rheumatism has
taken my name off his visiting list"
Finally the chap married and in due
time he became father. He was
proud of this and spent S5.4o in tele-
grams to friends and relatives, $3.50
for cigars and S1865 for drinks.
The baby thrived and grew. At the
end of four months the yeunSster was
an old story and weighed twenty-five
pounds and few ounces. When the
mother wanted the erstwhile proud
father to tote the heir from the house
to the trolley car the father made an
awful roar.
Before walking block perspiration
poured down the old mans face and
he breathed like stalled gasoline au-
tomobile. He complained sorely.
This kid weighs ton" he declared.
MY dear" said his wife, before we
were married you boosted Of your
strength. and even since became your
happy bride you have come home at
night, or rather in the morning, with
load that would have kept you off a
boulevard where heavy traffic Is pro-
hibited. Men are SO unreasonable"

The following reasons for church at
tendance have been presented to me by
men of great renown throughout the coun-
try, great business men, great philanthro-
pists, great leaders of men generally, and
there is not one who has written to me
but whose name is known throughout the
whole world.
First-Man needs the church. Tempta-
tons assail him on every side; there is no
man that lives without temptation. The
pressure of materialism in these days IS
terrific. and unless man has strong up
ward pull, at least one day in the week he
will find himself gradually going down.
The commercial spirit of the day is some
thing marvellous to think of, and unless
one day at least in the seven is spent in
worshiping God the other days Of the
week will dwarf and starve that spiritual
nature which every man possesses whether
he is conscious of it or not. The tendency
to look down and not up will after while
give the man a hating, hesitating, blind
way of walking, while the man who one
day in the week at least looks up and not
down will find himself purer and better
and stronger. "Men are sure to retro
grade and lose ground if they neglect tie
church." said man to me the other day.

spending to its supposed increase of dignity, rs
the administrative centre of the projected Blu
reau of Research. We do not say that this idea
might not be worked out into practicable
FORM but it appears like an artificial device for
accomplishing less easily and successfully work
which the Smithsonian Institution is peculiarly
adapted by character and spirit to perform, and
could confidently undertake with only a small
additional equipment.
In general the recommendations of the report
as to the initial cooperation of various branches
of the Government in making their respective
collections and facilities accessible to students
and as to the proper relations of existing educa-
tional establishments to the proposed institution
at Washington, seem prudent and reasonable
On some such basis as this the project which
has been advocated so long with far more zeal
than wisdom is deserving of intelligent discus
sion. Undoubtedly there is rich and conven-
lent field Of research at the National capital
and students may properly be encouraged TO
cultivate it, with the assistance of the Govern
ment to which ii belongs and of the universities
by which they are accredited worthy of such
an opportunity.

to this country In connection with It's trade In
the Far East, 1t is plain that the same prin-
cpe must apply as respects the powers of the
Government TO dealings with West India pos
sessions If the Government has power to I'M
pose or remit duties in the Philippine Islands on
goods imported from this and other countries,
1t must have the same with respect TO Puerto
Rico. If it has that power then of necessity
it has also power TO fix the duty which shall
be imposed on imports from all these islands
into the United States And while 1t may be
wise to fix such duties low enough to give
great encouragement to the inha bitants of new
possessions who struggling to rebuild their
industry after war and the destructive tornado,
yet it would be a grave mistake TO take any
step calculated to strengthen the hands of those
who deny the right and power Of the United
States to fix duties commerce between lis
own ports and those of the island possessions
For while that power cannot be denied with
reason. in the light of the past practice of the
Government and the decisions of its courts, as
respects the time prior to any action by Con-
gress ON the subject, neither can it be denied
that Congress can by legislative act admit any
of the exterior possessions within the United
States so that duties on traffic either way can
no longer be imposed.
That step would mean, as to the philippines,
abolition Of all duties on imports from this
country, and also from Spain and other coun-
tries to which "open door privileges extend.
The power of the United States to collect reve-
nue. for government Of the islands would thus
be crippled, and 1T is not yet possible TO say
what burdens such decision might impose
upon the inhabitants. Exports from the Islands
to this and all other countries would also be
made free of duty. cutting off another material
source of revenue. But this is all matter OF
little consequence compared with the grave ques-
ton whether or not all the savage or half saw
age inhabitants of these islands must be granted
full privilege of citizenship with prospective
share in the government of this Nation The
only safe and logical position, it must surely be
conceded is that the outlying possessions are
not within the meaning of the Constitution
parts of the United States. but property to be
held and governed until fully prepared for self
government. Enemies of the American National
policy can easily find reason for opposing that
position. but it is hard to see how friends of
that policy can object, unless through mistake
regarding the import and effect of measures
proposed.

THE REAL ISSUE IN CONGRESS-

Differences between men OF sense who have
a common object are likely TO be the fruit of
mistakes The race has not yet advanced SO
far that one no longer say Ito err is
human" nor is il offensive except TO morbid
vanity 10 suggest that fact may have been
forgotten overlooked in reasoning. As to
Puerto Rico and the Philippines, if all saw the
same facts from the same point of view there
would probably be no difference except between
the loyal Americans and the constant and
chronic foes of an American National policy.
The United States is under obligation to
grant in Philippine ports TO ships and goods of
Spain and other nations the same terms that
are granted 10 ships and goods of this Nation.
Duties will be required there for support of
the Government This country is content TO
have foreigners contribute to the support of
American government in the Philippine Islands
exactly much Americans contribute i'll
cases where the duty operates as a disadyan-
taGe 10 those sending goods thither. 1t is con-
tent to have the Philippine inhabitants pay the
same amount, and no more, on goods imported
FROM this and from other countries in cases
where the duty operates as a burden TO Philip
pine consumers
This seems TO a foolish surrender of
advantages belonging to the Nation which eX-
ercises sovereignty. defends the property and
bears the responsibility OF Its proper govern
ment. But have only TO consider that we
seeking the trade of China, just across
narrow strait, and are able TO compete there
with success against all other countries in the
products most needed by Eastern populations
They want machinery and tools and iron prod
ucts This country is selling them now to
China, Russia and Japan at less cost than any
other country furnish them. The Eastern
populations want cotton goods, and this country
is sending them now in open competition with
other countries. The same is true of wooden,
ware OF the innumerable articles of which
metals are the chief material, of packed meats
canned meats, fruit and fish, oil products
and printed matter, starch, glucose and india
rubber products. AL these and many other
classes of exports have been increased with
wonderful rapidity, because this country is able
TO compete in them with the products of any
other country IN open markets. Seeking the
trade of the whole Eastern world in such prod
ucfs why should the United States hesitate 10
meet competition in them on equal terms in
outlying possessions? Duties there will be
without doubt, on products from this and other
countries equally, because in that way other
peopIe will share with Americans part of the
cost of maintaining order and good government
in the Philippines, whereas Americans would
otherwise have 10 bear all that cost except the
mart borne by the impoverished inhabitants OF
the islands.
This being the 'open door," vastly importan!

LORD PAUNCEFOTE STAYS.

London dispatches announce that the British
Government has decided to retain Lord Paunce-
fote as Ambassador at Washington for an
indefinite period In accordance with the
general regulations of the service he would
have been retired in the near future to
private life and the sudden determination 10
prolong his active career is therefore a strlk-
ing recognition of his usefulness. 1t is SAID
that no representa- ton on the subject was made
by our Government which is entirely probable
though it is certain that the expectation of his
departure has caused sincere regret at Washing
ton. but that the decision to keep him here was
due directly to the opinion strongly expressed in
the English press that appointment to the
important post of Ambassador to the United
States should not be made at this time. LORD
Pauncefote is TO be congratulated upon TINS Sig
nal manifestation of the confidence with which
he Is officially and popularity regarded at home.
The extension of his term of office at Wash
ington is not less satisfactory to our Govern
raent and people. From the beginning OF his
residence here his courtesy and discretion have
been faultless, and his capacity for the faithful
service of his own country in a manner agree
able to the country TO which he is accredited has
been constantly evinced. He has contributed his
full share to the promotion of those friendly and
mutually useful relations which now exist be-
tween Great Britain and the United States and
for their maintenance his retention as Ambas-
sador affords additional security. Moreover, 1t
is reasonable to suppose that considerable
amount of unfinished business in which the two
nations are deeply interested can be most read
lily kept in train and most advantageousy ar
ranged if no change is made in the representa-
ton of British interests in this country. On all
accounts therefore, the decision of the British
Government respecting Lord Pauncefote is not
only highly honorable to him. bat thoroughly
acceptable to the United States.

TRUE TO THEIR STER.

Mr. Aids and Mr. Kelsey came to the rescue
of the Ramapo jobbers yesterday quite as they
might be expected TO do in any case where the
interests of their owner. Mr. Thomas c. Plat
were opposed to the interests of the taxpayers
of New York.
The vote on the motion to discharge the Cities
Committee from the further consideration of the
Ramapo bills il has been trying TO strange was
highly significant. AS usual, only enough Demo-
Gratis Joined their Republican partners to furnish
the necessary votes for the success of the combi-
nation That is familiar trick frankly re-
vealed by Senator Grady, and it deceiyes nobody.
The division of the Republicans clearly showed
on which side honesty and public welfare We're
to be found. Men like Mr.. Fallows, Mr.. Henry
and Mr.. Weekes voted to discharge the COM
mttee Amid some honorable men who simply
obeyed orders were the black horse cavalry, with
whose aid the organization regularly sells law
Mr.. Platt's Assembly rallied in force to protect
the Ramapo company in the possession Of the
extraordinary privileges which threaten the in
dependence of this city in the matter of water
supply.
Meanwhile where is Governor Roosevelt? A
year ago he rushed into the arena, a perfect
hero, TO prevent the same band of jobberS from
strangling franchise taxation. 1t cannot be that
he is less opposed TO such methods now. 1t can
not be that he lacks courage for such fight
