A Veteransa Advice.

On the last night of a series of "ppo-
tracted meetings" in the Methodist
church Of little New Jersey village a
visiting evangelist was making a spe-
cial effort to obtain a showing Of anx-
lous souls. But nobody responded to
his invitation. They sang a hymn and
then the evangelist arose again and
called upon the congregation to "enlist
for the service Of the Lord" A battle
Scared. wooden-legged veteran who
had dropped into the back seat watched
the proceedings with interest. For the

a response came from the back seat:

from Germany, $1o50,611 900, and
from France $787, ,069, 900.

The Germs of La Grippe are Conveyed
Through the Atmosphere.

The Germs of La Grippe are Cow eyed
Through the Atmosphere.
No one can escape the la grippe
germ because when an epidemic of
the disease is prevailing the air is
laden with it.
The reason everyone does not have
the disease at the same time is be-
cause the persons who are enjoying
perfecs health are able to successfully
resist and throw off the Infection,
while those, who for any reason are
not in the best of health fall ready
victims.
The first symptoms are those of
acute catarrh resembling a hard cold,
and if prompt treatment is applied at
this time, it can easily be broken up;
one of the best remedies at this stage
is Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, sold by
druggists everywhere, and if taken
freely, say one tablet every hour or
two for two or three days, the danger
of pneumonia and serious complica-
tions will be averted.
Rev. l.. Z. Palmer, Baptist clergy
mas of Ceresco, Mich, makes state
ment of interest to all catarrh and
grip sufferers. He says: ''Stuart's
Catarrh Tablets have certainly been a
blessing to me. l have used them
freely this fall and winter and have
found them a safeguard against la
grippe and catarrhal troubles from
which l had suffered for years. l feel
that can freely and conscientiously
recommend them"
Persons who suffer from catarrh of
the head and throat are very suscep-
tible to la grippe and such will find a
pleasant, convenient and safe re medy
in this new catarrh cure.
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets are COM
posed entirely of harmless antiseptics
and may be used as freely as neces-
sary, as they contain no cocain e,
opiate or poisonous drug of any kind.

RELATIONS WITHCUBA
Gen. Wood Talks Them Over with
the Constitutional ConVens
ton Committee.
LIKELY THERELL BE NO TROUBLE
Cubans Willing Probably to Grant AN
We May Desire of Control
Over There.

Havana, Feb. 1G.-Governor General
Wood left Havana Yesterday for
two days rest at Batabano. With him
went the special committee appointed
by the Cuban constitutional convention
to draw up Il proposition defining the
future relations between the United
States and the republic of Cuba. The
committee and General Wood will dis
cuss the matter and the former prob
ably Will return to Havana today.
Judging from the personal opinions of
the members of the committee no OBJ
lection will be raised on its part to
establishing the most liberal relations.
Indeed. it seems to be accepted as a
matter of course that the United States
government is entitled TO ask for as
surances as to the stability of the re-
public. There Is an evident DISPOSE
ton to look upon the outline of the
proposed relations published Feb. 1 in
La Nacion" as indicating what is de-
sired by the United States.
Outline of the p ropOsed Status
The only hitch that is expected to
arise between General Wood and the
commission in discussing the question
is as to the maintenance of naval sta
tions in Cuba by the United States.
The other clause may be somewhat
modified. but it is likely that an agree
ment will be reached whereby Cuba
shall not make treaties with other ma
tions prejudicial to the interests OF
the United Staotes in Cuba or in any
way preventing the islands freedom
ofaction The United States. on the 9TH
er hand, will guarantee peace and the
protection of the rights defined by the
treaty of Paris, and all rights acquired
by military DEGREES during the period
of Intervention Will be respected.
In Nacion's Scheme of Relations.
LA Nacion's'' scheme of relations
was printed in these dispatches Feb.
. The clauses interesting to the Unit
ed Staotes are as follows: That the
republic. for period of two years art
or the establishment of independence,
will conduct foreign affairs through
the United States: will make no treaty
with any other nation prejudicial 10
the United States. That the
United States for period of two years
after the establishment of independ-
ence NAV occupy forts in Cuba. pro
vided the Cuban flag flies with the
American That Cuba will lease to
the United states two coaling stations
and will give no commercial adYan-
tages to any other nation which are
not given to the United States; and
that none of these concessions or
promises are to be taken TO imply any
cessation of the sovereignty of Cuba
or any lessening of her complete lnde-
,,endence" The significant thing has
been the silence of the Radical press
that is, the press representing the
