Pe-ru-na is known from the Atlantic
to the Pacific. Letters of congratulation
and commentator testifying to the mrr-
its of Pe-ru-na us n catarrh remedy are
pouring in from every State i'll the Union.
DR.. Hartman is receiving hundreds of
such letters daily. All classes write these
letters, from the highest to the lowest.
The outdoor laborer, the indoor arti-
san. the. clerk, the editor, the statesman,
the preacher-all agree that Pe-ru-na Is
the catarrh remedy Of the age The
stage and rostrum, recognizing catarrh
as their greatest enemy, are especially
enthusiastic i'll their praise and testi-
mony.
Any man who wishes perfect health
must be entirely free from catarrh. Ca
tarrh is well-nigh universal; almost om-
nipresent. Pe-ru-na is the only abso-
lutte safeguard known. A cold is the
beginning Of catarrh. To prevent colds.
to cure colds. is to cheat catarrh out of
its victims. Pe-ru-na not only cures ca
tarrh. but prevents. Every household
should be supplied with this great remedy
for coughs, colds and so forth.

admirer Of Pe-ru-na. He keeps it con

SPLENDID Words About Saskatoon, Rosthern
and Hague District, Where They

Messrs. J. e. Blum and ]. Grumper
Of Manchester, Washtenaw County,
Michigan, paid a visit to Alberta last
summer and saw there a MT. .Shantz,
one of the good old Pennsylvania stock,
who had come recently-some seven
wears ago-from Ontario, with S24 i'll
his pocket. He has certainly ~prospered,
as he now owns over seventy mead OF
cattle, has a good log house framed
over. also a good barn, II in all re-
spects looks q thrifty and Weli-to-do
farmer. He had some good crops OF
oats and barley. After spending some
days in Calgary and Edmonton they re-
turned to Regina, Assiniboia, and look
ed around the country north to Lums
den and Balgonie. where the crops ap-
peared very promising and heavy, CON
tinuing up the Regina and Long Lake
road, they came to Saskatoon. on the
crossing of the South Saskatchewan
river. OF this district they say:

than any we have seen. We drove out

RUssIA's SUGAR SYSTEM.

The United States does not stand alone in its
view of the Russian sugar bounty system.
Great Britain. whose fiscal system differs so
radically from ours, appears to take the same
view of it. and 10 be involved in an even sharper
controversy with Russia than the United States
has been. The British Government warns Rus
sia in terms that if she does not adhere to the
principles adopted by the Brussels sugar con
ference and if the international Commission
decides that n sugar bounty exists III Russia,
Great Britain viii be compelled to impose
retalatory duty upon Russian sugar. That
seems to be an entirely just and reasonable at
titude to assume. The reply of Russia is inter-
estng if not satisfactory.
1t is briefly TO the effect that Russia had
nothing to do with the Brussels conference be
cause she wished to keep herself free to adopt
such domestic measures as she pleased for the
regulation of her sugar industry Precisely.
That is what has all along been contended,
though Russia has resented the contention,
namely, that she has domestic system for the
regulation of the sugar industry which in effect
provides an export bounty. The other Euro
pean sugar producing countries have such sys-
TENS and make no secret of the fact. Those
systems might be described domestic meas
ures' Just as well as Russas. But for the gen
eral good the various powers agreed to go into
conference and submit their domestic meas
ures to a certain degree Of international scrutiny
and regulation. Russia alone declined to do so.
Her whole attitude is 4 tacit confession that
she has sugar bounty system. If she wants
TO maintain that system she has an undoubted
right to do so. But in that case she must meet
the consequences and not expect to be treated
as though she had no such system.
The Russian proposition that the question of
tariffs and bounties and cartels of all kinds
whether concerning sugar or any other goods
shall be submitted TO the arbitration court at
The Hague does not seem altogether logical
There have already been several international
commissions upon the sugar question. They
have been as we'll fitted TO deal with it, and
impartial. as the tribunal at The Hague is II
Russia would not abide by their findings, what
is the use in carrying the case to The Hague?
Nor does there seem to be any convincing rea-
for using a dragnet TO catch a single fish.
1t is the sugar question that the nations are in
terested in, and it alone. There is general
demand for such an illimitable ola podrda of
fiscal and industrial controversies as that which
Russia contemplates. Nothing could be gained
by it, unless indeed. it were that the sugar
question would be hopelessly hidden in the
mass and q settlement of it be thus indefinitely
postponed, which might he n gain for any
country which desires to continue the present
sugar bounty system.

4 PHILIPPINE GOLD STANDARD.

Senator Lodges bill for the establishment Of
the gold standard of currency in the Philippines
promises 10 meet a wide and deep If not long
felt want in these islands. The fuctuating
rates of exchange and the varying and uncer-
tain value of the silver coinage have been ma
terial handicap of commerce, and would doubt
less be more and more detrimental as the gold
standard became more nearly universal else
where in the world and efforts were made to
extend Philippine trade with gold standard
countries. With the one exception Of China all
countries having important relations with the
Philippines are now on permanent gold basis,
and il is desirable that the Philippines shall
have a currency of stable value in the markets
of their customers Especially desirable is it
that there shall be an unvarying parity Of value
between the currency Of the Philippines and
that of the United States. That is for two major
reasons. One is, that we naturally want TO de-
velop as large commerce as possible between
this country and our insular possessions, 20
which end such reorganization of Philippine cur
renoy would largely contribute. The other is
that ought matter of duty and principle
10 give to those islands the best possible gov
eminent. and the best government involves the
best system Of currency.
The proposed scheme is a simple one The
gold dollar Of the United States, or coin OF
identical value, is to be the standard of value
But silver is the popular currency Of the islands
and viii probably remain so: II surely will In
the important particular of fractional currency
This fact is to be recognized in the coinage Of
silver peso, or dollar and Of smaller coins which
shall be aliquot parrs thereof-just like the
silver dollar, half dollar. quarter dollar and
dime in the United States. There will. how
eFer, be this important difference, that the silver
peso or dollar. in the Philippines will be worth
cnly half much as gold dollar. This ratio
viii be fixed by law, and the Philippine Gov
ernment viii be authorized to take whatever
steps may be necessary for maintaining it.
There is also an interesting difference between
this proposed scheme for establishing the gold
standard and that adopted by Japan in March.
1897. Japan had formerly the double stand
ard, with gold yen actually worth about a
dollar Of cur money and a silver yen of nominal
ly the same value. but intrinsicaly worth much
less. Japan effected the change from the double
TO the single standard by cutting the gold yen
exactly in two. the new yen being worth about
80 cents American, while the silver yen was
