Good Health

and pure blood are inseparable. If
your blood is bad, your health must SUI
fer. Poor blood allows the body to lose
vitality just as poor fire under the
boiler allows the steam to run down.
From poor blood to impure blood IS out
a step, and impure blood is mother to
large percentage of human ills. Dr.
Harter's Iron Tonic is an antidote for
both poor and impure blood, for it is
both a builder and purfier - a food
and medicine. 1t is tYe best comb,
nation of the kind known to medical
science, and its success for nearly halt
a century has led to endorsement by
thousands of medicg men who have

The Secretary of Agriculture has
adopted a new platform. He told
me one day this week that In view
Of the magnificent possibilities he
could foresae IN the way of scelntl-
fic development of the agricultural
industries of the coantr: he had
determined to ask nothing further
from Congress in the way of pro-
teclve duties but to preach to the
farmers. early and late the atyant-
ages to be derived from pursuing
the most approved methods. The
Secretary made this statement when
| [ quoted to him the remarks of
some congressman who had ex-
pressed the fear that when Secreta-
ry Wilson had succeeded In estab-
hshing the silk industry he would
ask congress protective industry
on raw silk. .sTheY need not be

nothing, said the Secretary
"They SAID, when l first stated
THAT we could raise our own tea,
that it could'be done only by means
OF an immense protective tariff but
we are today raising tea and selling

that, because of It's superior quail
ties and the fact that il is cured

Negotiations at Pretoria Have Been
 Practically Finished.

Practically Finished.
 LONDON, April 19.-Terms of peace have apparently been agreed. upon be tween the British and Boer negotiators in South Africa.
 These terms have not been announc- ed and must be approved by the burgh- CTS under arms as well as by the Brit ish government before they become op- eratiye.
 The process of obtaining the sanction of the Boer people is already under way.
 The government leader, A. J. Balfour, in the house of commons made the fol- lowing statement:
 After two conferences between Lord Miner, the British high commissioner of South Africa, and Lord Kitchener and the Boer delegates at Pretoria, Lord Kitchener, while refusing to grant an armistice, on military grounds, has agreed to give facilities for the election and meeting of representatives of the various Boer commands to consider the position. The Boer leaders have there fore left Pretoria to carry out this plan."
 Mir. Balfour added that it was not expected that communication between the British authorities and the Boer leaders could be resumed in less than three weeks time.

A STEAMSHIP TRUST.
]. P. Morgan Combines Six Great
 Ocean Lines.

NEW YORK, April 19.-J. Pierpont Morgan has at last completed plan for the combination of practically all the important transatlantic steamship companies except the German lines. According to London dispatches, an in- ternational syndicate has been formed, dominated by American capital, which has successfully purchased the control of the White Star line and the Domin- ion line, and q community of interest, as we'll as ownership, has been estab lished between those companies and the Leyland line, the Atlantic Trans port line and the American and Red Star lines.
 It is understood that an American company will be formed having an ini- tial capitalization of $150,O00,000 for the purpose of controlling the great steamship lines now under Mir. AIor gan's control. This company, according to London adyices. will serve as I hold ing company, just as the United States Steel corporation acts as holding com pany to the various steel and iron cor porations which it controls through an ownership of stock The same plan which was adopted by Americas lead- ing finaneier in grouping the warning steel and iron enterprises of the United States will be used in the formation of the great Atlantic steamship combina- tion.
 With but slight exceptions the combi- nation effected by A1r. Morgan brings into one immense company the entire Atlantic fleet owned by the English speaking races on either side of the ocean. More than 1,250,000 tons of steamships which are now i'll active op- eration plying between ports in the United States, Canada, the West In dies, Great Britain and the continent are involved, and at least $200, 100000 of capital is represented in the cost of the vessels alone, to say nothing of the millions expended at the various ter minals in docks, warehouses and priyi- leges.
