Mr. Xenton, chief Of one of the DEPART

LONDON, January 31.-The Brussels cor
respondent Of the Times says a Spanish dip
lomat whose personality is thinly veiled en-
deavors in the Independence Beige to modi-
fy the view that 1t was Great Britain who
chiefly prevented Intervention in the Span
ish-American war. He credits Great Bri-
tain. however, with the effort to secure a
settlement tantamount to a complete abdi-
cation by SPAIN which effort. he says, was
only brought to naught by the war party
In the United States Congress-
The diplomat in question admits that
Spain believed that Europe would support
her interests and that she applied to all
the powers month before the repture OF
negotiations. Great Britain, he says. was
the first to counsel and uphold mediation.
On March "a. 1898. 1t is asserted the late
Count Muravien Russian foreign minister)
told the Spanish ambassador at st. Peters
burg that Europe could not settle the dis
pute and that Intervention would surely be
resented by the United States.
On March o. 1t is further said, the Span
i<$l cabinet decided to capitulate all along
the line. agreeing to the points which satfs-
fed the American demands. and this caused
the negotiat1ons to be resumed for twenty

BRONCHITIS
A Disease That is Danger
GUS.
VinOl's Great Value i'm
Such Cases.

When talk to a man who has bronchitis it
is unnecessary for us to enter at any length into
symptoms
Our experience has been that sufferers from this
trouble become careless. After time they believe
it is misery they must endure That is not the
case. Many of friends who will read this will
agree with that it good thing for them
when they followed advice and took Vinol.
1t is indeed wonderful how quickly this modern
scientific preparation completely oyercomes this
disagreeahe and dangerous disease.
We wish of friends and citizens who
from bronchitis, or in fact, from any throat
pulmonary trouble would come to us. 1t would
give pleasure to devote time in explaining
how Vinol all such Diseases in fact any
disease that has tendency to deplete the system.
The following letter this subject is surely of
interest
''For five years 1 troubled with terrible
cough and bronchitis. tried a great many differ
ent preparations without getting relief could not
sleep and / became so weak could hardly walk,
and all this time / was coughing day and night.
Then 1 took Vinol. What Godsend that first
bottle was had not taken half of it before l
noticed a change for the better. / took four bot
ties in ALL and the improvement in my con-
dition Is most encouraging. l longer cough,
and feel stronger and better than 1 have for
long time. MISS ANNA RAY, Bangor Me"
When you call on us, we will give
you many other facts fully as inter
esting as the above. You will thus
see why we have such faith in Vinol,
and why we never hesitate to refund
to any one the cost of Vinol, if we
fail to benefit them.
