DEAR SIR: l had been a sufferer for
several years with hard, dry cough, pain
full breathing. night sweats, soreness of
the chest and lungs; in fact, l had every
reason to believe 1 was fast approaching
a state of Consumption. l had tried al
most every remedy that my friends recon-
mended, but all to no avail. Nothing
seemed to do me any good. l used your
and the relief was almost in
1 then procured from city
druggist a full course of Psychine, Ozomul-
sion, Expectorant and OzOjell. Only yes
terday did / finish the course. and today
feel an entirely different man. 1t seems
almost miraculous, and 1 can but family
express my gratitude in simple thanks
l shall be only too glad if can be of any
use in satisfying the minds of any people
who are suffering with like ills. Accept
my warmest thanks, with full permission
to use my name as you deem fit. Believe
me always to remain.
Yours gratefully, BENJAMIN MYERS.

A Permanent EncampmInt city,

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBgNE: On my
return home from the National Encamp-
ment Mt Washington, d. c.. it occurred
to me that Washington was the proper
place to hold the Encampment every year,
on account Of the many battlefields near
it, which are great attraction to the old
soldiers, especially of those who fought
there. Other old soldiers would wish to
see them, more particularly Gettysburg.
| would suggest that an effort be made to
have Washington made the meeting place
OF the National Eacampment every year.
Then. as an indacement for all the old
veterans to attend think that the least
the Government could do for the old veter-
ans to partly repay them for what they
have done for the Government in days
gone by, would be to furnish Transporter
tion to all honorably discharged soldiers.

fictitious name, which was written down on
blackboard. They then changed places
and she went again around the circle
touching each one and correctly signify

another physician, a stranger, managed to
slip into the circle, and for a moment she
hesitated. He had not been there before,
she knew, but after carefully feeling his
features, she spelled ''T-o-l-Ei-v-e-r." and
the name was put on the board with the
rest. ''How is this, .sir?" asked the mas

eases like scarlet fever sometimes cause
deafness. But by far the most common
cause of loss of hearing is catarrh of the
head and throat.
A prominent specialist on ear troubles
gives as his opinion that nine out of ten
cases of deafness is traced to throat
trouble; this is probably overstated, but it
is certainly true that more than half of
all cases of poor hearing were caused by
catarrh
The cata rhal secretion in the nose and
throat finds its way into the Eustachian
tube and by clogging it up very soon af-
fects the hearing, and the hardening of
the secretion makes the loss of hearing
permanent, unless the catarrh which
caused the trouble is cured.
Those who are hard of hearing may
think this little far fetched, but any one
at all Observant must have noticed how
a hard cold in the head will affect the
hearing and that catarrh if long neglected
will certainly impair the sense of hearing
and ultimately cause deafness.
IT the nose and throat are kept clear
and free from the unhealthy secretions of
catarrh, the hearing will at once greatly
improve and anyone suffering from deaf
hess and catarrh can satisfy themselves
on this point by using n fifty cent box of
Stuart's Catarrh Tablets, new catarrh
cure, which in the past year has wen the
ers, as well as physicians, because it is in
convenient form to use, contains no CO.
caine or opiate and is as safe and pleas
ant for children as for their elders
Stuarts Catarrh Tablets is whole
some combination of Blood root, Guaiacol.
Eucalyptol and similar antiseptics and
they cure catarrh and catarrhal deafness
by action upon the blood and mucous MEM
brane of the nose and throat.
AS one physician aptly expresses it:
You do not have to draw upon the imag-
ination to discover whether you are getting
benefit from Stuart's Catarrh Tablets: i'm
provement and relief are apparent from
the first tablet taken"
All druggists sell and recommend them
They cost but fifty cents for full sized
package and any catarrh sufferer who has
wasted time and money on sprays, salves
and powders, will appreciate to the full
the merit of Stuart's Catarrh Tablets.

SUGAR IN HAWAII.

A 5 SHOWING the great preponder-
a ance Of the sugar industry in the
Hawaiian islands over all other forms
of manufactures and commerce. a re-
cent census bulletin is most interest
ing. According to the returns therein
presented. if the raising of sugar cane
ard the manufacture of sugar should
be suspended. there wouldn't be enough
left for any two nations or peoples to
quarrel over.
The value of all the manufacturing
interests of Hawaii is put at $11,Ji1,-
655. OF this amount. 1881 442 is cred
tied to sugar alone. All the machinery
of what ever character used in the ISL
auds for turning out finished products.
is worth just $7.579.S7S. Sugar uses
more than six-sevenths Of it. or Sc
S56.915 worth In the year ending June
go 1900. when the census was taken.
HawaiTs output of manufactures was
valued at S24,992,06S. The sugar indus
try absorbed S19.254.77S Of it,
Other comparisons are equally strik-
ing. except when we come to the ques-
ton OF wages. It is stated that the
sugar makers employ somewhat more
than half the wage earners of the isl
ands. Yet their aggregate pay is about
one-third of the total for all lines It
viii be seen that while the making OF
sugar is very profitable to the owner,
it is not so profitable to the wage earn
er as other classes Of industry. Ha-
waiian sugar comes into this country
free of duty. the islands being on the
same footing in this respect as any
other territory of the United States ex-
cept the Philippines.
The lev wages paid laborers over
there enable the manufacturers to COM
pete with beet and cane sugar makers
in the United States. Notwithstanding
the lorg ocean haul from Honolulu to
san francisco. We hear no talk Of
Hawaiian sugar interfering with the
home product as is the case when prop
ositions are made to give Cuban sugar
free entry. Nevertheless. the industry
in Hawaii is growing rapidly, and if
Cuba is a menace to the beet interests,
so also viii Hawaii be.
