Beware Of Substitutes.
CAPUDlNE is Lowest in Price
and Greatest il Power.
There is nothing else like it.

What Capudine did for a Charlotte gen.
tleman who had tried everything for
neuralgia in the head, but found no relief
until he tried this never-failing remedy
Mr.. Freeland says:
Il have been a great sufferer from
nervous headache and neuralgia. / tried
almost everything that l could get my
hands on. and while / was in some in
stances, temporarily benefited, was not
permanently relieved until | had used
Capudine. A relative of mine who had
gotten good results from its use, recon-
mended Capudine to me, telling me that
she had never known it to fail l found
in the use of this medicine all that was
claimed for it, and unhesitatingly recon-
mend it to all suffering with headache or
neuralgia.

FAILURES FOR LAST YEAR.
they Were Slightly More Numerous Than
In the Preceding Year with In
creased Liabilities,

New York, Jan. 4.-Failures in 1900
were slightly more numerous than in
the preceding year and the liabilities
also showed a slight increase. This,
however, says Bradstreet's, will hard
ly be cited as an unfavorable symp-
tom, If it is remembered that the ex-
panding trade Of that year and of the
year before was instrumental in in
ducing large number of new ven-
lures in business, and, therefore, to
this extent, rendering greater the
ever-present liability to business EN-
barrassment. There were 9.913 fail
ures, with liabilities Of S127, ,7O5
and assets of $6O,1l9,s95 reported to
Bradstreet's in 1900, gain of 2.S per
cent. In number over 1899 and an in
crease of six per cent, or about twice
the former percentage in liabilities,
but assets only equalled those Of
the preceding year. With the excep-
ton of 1899 the failures were the
smallest in number since 1887.
An increased number Of failures is
to be noted in the middle, western,
northwestern and southern states,
while decreases in number from 1899
are noted in the New England and
in the Pacific states and territories.

Lord Kitchener Attends Dutch Meeting
ut Pretoria and Points Out the Folly
Of Continuing the War.

London, Jan. 4.-The censorship has
just permitted news of the following
peace tentatives to emanate from
Pretoria: About the middle of De.
cember number of prominent burgh.
ers who had submitted and were liv-
ing in the Pretoria district formed q
peace committee and resolved to at
tempt negotiations. Lord Kitchener
attended a meeting of the committee
December 81 and addressed the meet
ing. He pointed out the folly of a
continuance of guerrilla warfare
since the British government would
never permit the re-establishment OF
the Boer government. He said the
British proposals foreshadowed an
enlightened government, in which
the burghers would have prominent
share, ensuring the rights Of property
and the ancient laws and customs OF
the burghers. No one, he promised
would be sent out of the country
but all who had fought fairly, in.
Guiding the leaders, would receive the
consideration due their rank.
The committee, which included
Gen. Cronie's brother, cordially
thanked Lord Kitchener and promised
to print his speech in Dutch and to
circulate 1t everywhere.
