A rich mans statements that he in
tends to devote almost his entire for
tune to charitable works has aroused
much discussion. This is because it
will accomplish much good. 1t is a
praise worthy endeavor, but there are
many other agencies which accom-
plish just as much good. Take Hos
letters Stomach Bitters, for instance
the great American remedy. For
fifty years it has cured constipation,
dyspepsia, and all the ills which arise
from weak digestion. This medicine
will keep the stomach in good shape
and the bowels regular. 1t is a won
derful restorative tonic and health
builder. 1t is also q preventive OF
malaria. fever and ague. Ask for it,
and insist upon having it. See that a
private revenue stamp covers the neck
OF the bottle.

OF SARDINIA
APPEAL TO CATHOLIC POWERS
Holy See PrOcIaims That the Situa
ton of the Papacy Under Italian
Rule Becomes Steadily
More IntOIerabIe.

LONDON, Aug. 23.-As a result Of the
outcry against the Geclara ticn of tie Os-
servatore Romano, says the Rome cor
respondent of the Daily Express. tkgt the
late King Humbert had medItated giving
up Rome to The hierarchy, the clerical
papers have been instructed to publish a
statement giving confirmation and de-
tails.
According to this account King Hum
bert, some months before his death, wrote
to Cardinal Giuseppe Frisco, archbishop
OF Naples, requesting that a trustworthy
priest be sent to hear his confession. A
priest was sent, but absolution was re-
fused unless Humbert would agree to ab
dlcate and give up lone. The king asked
time TO consider as he was anxious to re
ccive the sacrament, and according 10 the
clerical version, 1T vas this communica-
ton to the priest that induced the holy
see to grant Christian burial"
King Humbert's letter to Cardinal Pris-
&C will be published. A circular no..
from the Vatican To the Catholic powers
declares that as long as Italy contests
the rights of the h1ly see the pope will
only recognize Victor Emanuel as klrg OF
Sardinia
The note appeals to the powers to re-
lieve the pope from en- into Ierable sitlla-
ton, declaring that the condition OF
the papacy under Italian rule is steadily
growing worse.
