Absolutely
Change

About seven years ago my health be-
gan to fail, 1 was completely run down.
and my blood got in a bad condition. l
suffered with severe pains in different
parts of my body, so severe that l coulI
not lie in any position long at time, and
in consequence of this / did not know
what it was to get a good nights rest.
1 had been taking different medicines for
the trouble for three years, but
got no relief Then l thought l would
try Mrs. Joe Persons Remedy. l had no
faith in it, or anything else for my case,
hut I thought it would be change. The
third night after I started on it l got
the first good nights sleep l had had in
many months. l became hopeful. The
Remedy relieved the terrible pains I had
been suffering from so long, and being
able to sleep well at night. 1 soon be-
gan to feel like new man. My appetite
began to improve l began to build up
in every respect. / continued its use
until l took about three dozen bottles,
when 1 knew l was a we'll man. l have
been cured four years, have never felt
those pains since and am now perfectly
healthy man, nor have ever needed any
o. the Remedy since.

COTTON HAS 113 MARINES.
In Addition He Can Land Blue
 Jackets If Necessary.

Washington, Sept. S.-(Special.)-If Ad- miral Cotton deems 1t necessary to land force of men at Beirut he will have at his disposal 113 marines. in charge of two officers of the corps. On board the Brooklyn there are sixty-six marines, un- der Captain Meyers, who is well equipped to handle the marines on land. If such a step should be necessary. Captain Mey- CTS saw service in China during the march to Pekin, and took a conspicuous part in the protection of the foreigners during the entire Boxer uprising. On the San Francisco there are thirty-f1ve marines and one officer, while on the Machias, which Is at Port Said, there are twelve marines. While this force may seem small, naval officers here think there will be sufficient to meet all emer- gencies, as in addition to the marines there are a large number of sailors on board each vessel who could be pressed into service If needed.
 There is one large missionary college owned and run by the American Foreign Missionary Society in Beirut, and one at Harput. There are no reliable statistics in this country as to the exact number of American missions and colleges, schools and institutions owned and ope- rated by Americans at present Minister Leischman and Secretary Peet of the American Missionary Society at Constan- tinople are engaged under orders from this Government in making a list of the exact number of schools and colleges owned by Americans situated in Turkey. The foreign powers have a larger num- Der of intermediate" schools than the United States in Turkey, but the colleges and missions owned absolutely by Amer jeans are probably more in number than those of any other nation.

IS DENIED BY BRYAN
ROBSON NOT ENGAGED TO HIS
 DAUGHTER.
Seen in Cleveland, the Nebraskan Denies a Story Recently Put Into Circulation by Some
 Newspaper.

Cleveland. O., Sept. s.-Williarn J. Bry- an arrived here to-day from the East and called at the city hall for confer ence with Mayor Johnson. The latter was out of the city, however, and MT. Bryan subsequently, left for Toledo. af- ter taking lunch with Charles B. Salen, chairman of the Democratic Executive Committee. Mir Bryan declined to dis cuss national politics, but predicted that MT. Johnson would be elected Governor of Ohio at the coming State election.
 While here to-day MT. Bryan gave out the following written statement relative to a printed report that his daughter, Ruth was engaged to marry Captain Richmond Pearson Hobson.
 There is no truth whatever in the re- ported engagement, and the newspaper men who sent out the report might have learned the truth by inquiring either of Lieutenant Hobson or of our family. MT Hobson called on Mrs. Bryan when he lectured in Lincoln recently and there met my daughter. The fact that such a circumstance is made the basis of the story printed shows how unreliable some of the so-called news is.
