There is nothing like Asthmalene. It brings instant relief, even in the worst cases. It cures when all else fails.
 The Rev c. F. WELLS, of Villa Ridge, H. says: "Your trial bottle of Asthmalene received in good condition. I cannot tell you how thankful l feel for the good derived from it. l was slave, chained with putrid sore throat and asthma for ten years. despaired of ever being cured. l saw your ad- vertisement for the cure of this dread full and tormenting disease, asthma, and thought you had overspoken your selves. but resolved to give it a trial.

high degree of enterprise and ability has
been shown In the work Itself: but as
much cannot be said in reference to the
laws relating thereto. The security and
value of the homes created depend large

the majority Of these rest on the uncer-

WASHINGTON, Dec. s. President
Roosevelts s message to Congress follows:
To the Senate and House of Representa-
tives:
The Congress assemblies this year under
the shadow of great calamity. On the
9Th of September President Mckinley was
shot by an anarchist, while attending the
Pan-American Exposition at Buffalo, and
died in that city on the 14th of that month.
Grief of the People.
The shock, the grief of the country are
bitter in the minds of all who saw the
dark days while the President yet hov-
cred between life and death
When we turn from the man to the Ma
tion, ,the harm done is so great as to eX-
cite our gravest apprehensions and to de-
mand our wisest and most resoiute action.
This criminal was professed anarchist,
inflamed by the teachings of professed
anarchists, and probably also by the reck-
less utterances of those who. on the stump
and in the pubic press, appeal to the
dark and evil spirits of malice and greed,
envy and su.len hatred
The Anarchist Is a Malefactor.
The Federal Courts should be given
Jurisdiction over any man who kills or at
tempts to kill the President or any man
who, by the Constitution or by law, is il
line of succession for the Presidency,
while the punishment for an unsuccessful!
attempt should be proportioned to the
enormity OF the offense against our insti-
tutions. Anarchy is crime against the
whole human race; and all mankin1
should band against the anarchist. .-
His crime should be made an offense
against the law of nations like piracy and
that form of man-stealing known as the
slave trade; for it is of far blacker infamy
than either 1t should be so declared by
treaties among all civilized powers. Such
treaties would give to the Federal Gov
ernment the power of dealing with the
crime.

NICARAGUA CANAL.
Work of the Greatest Importance to
the American People.

Work of the Greatest Importance to
the American People.
No single great material work which
remains to be undertaken \on this conti-
nent is of such consequence to the Amer
lean people as the building of canal
across the isthmus connecting North apd
South America. Its Importance to the
Nation is by no means limited merely to
its material effects upon our business
prosperity; and yet with view to these
effects alone it would be to the last de-
gree important for US Immediately to be-
gin it.
am glad to be able to announce tt
you that our negotiations on this subjec
with Great Britain, conducted on both
sides In a spirit of friendliness and mu-
tual good will and respect, have resulted
in my being able to lay before the Senate
a treaty which If ratified will enable us
to begin preparations for an Isthmian can
al at any time, and which guarantees
to this Nation every right that 1t has
ever asked in connection with the canal.
Monroe Doctrine.
The Monroe Doctrine should be the car
dinal feature of the foreign policy OF
all the nations of the two Americas, as
1t Is of the United States. Just Is years
have passed since President Monroe in
his annual message announced that 1.-The
American continents are henceforth not
to be considered as subjects for future
colonization by any European power" In
other words, the Monroe Doctrine Is a
declaration that there must be no terri.

Work of Upbuilding 1t Must Be

The work of upbuilding fine Navy must
be steadily continued. No one point OF our

of our Nation in the future. Whether
we desire it or not, we must hencefortn
recognize that We have International du-

idea that our Nation is among those
whose sons go down to the sea in ships.
Unless our commerce is always to be
carried in foreign bottoms. we must have
war craft to protect it.

There should be no cessation in the
work of completing our Navy. So far
ingenuity has been wholly unable to de-

The naval militia forces are state organ

Cleaning windows with snails.

An old colored woman selling snails
occasionally makes her appearance in
certain streets here. says a Philadel-
phia paper. She carries an old basket,
in which the snails repose on freshly
sprinkled leaves. These are not sold
as food, but for cleaning the outside
of window panes-an old practice still
in vogue in Kensington. The snail Is
dampened and placed upon the glass,
where it at once moves around and
devours all insects and foreign matter,
leaving the pane as bright and clear
as crystal. There are old-established
business places in Kensington where
the upper windows, when cleaned at
all, are always cleaned by snails. There
is also fine market for snails among
the owners of aquariums, as they keep
the glass clean and bright.

NEW BRITISH ArRsH,P.
Inventor of Portsmouth, England. Thinks
He Has Succeeded.

h0 haB buCcocuous
A new British airship, upon which
the inventor, Thomas Buchanan of
Portsmouth, has been working twenty
years, will be completed in a few
weeks it is expected. The inventor Is
confident that it will overcome the diff
ficulties encountered by NJ. Santos-Du-
mont. The great object in Its con-
struction has been to follow the shape
of bird, even to the head and the
beak. The principal steering gear is
large aluminium rudder shaped like
fish's tail.
1t marks a new departure in the con-
structing of airships, as the passengers
will not be carried in car, but inside
the body of the contrivance. 1t Will
be driven by two powerful propellers,
one ON either side. The blades are
especially constructed to get good
grip on the air.
The gasoline motors and cabin are
in the lower part of the airship, which
is built Of steel and bamboo, with air
holes fore and aft. The front of the
balloon toward the beak is transpar-
ent, so that the steerer may see the d.
rection in which he is going The
whole ship is surrounded by n cover

sequently VIII lessen the reSlStance VI

success. He will attend the trial trip
