Regarding the Panama canal, the
United States has for more than hall
a century patiently and In good faith
carried out it's obligations under the
treaty of 1916, when, for the first
time, it became possiblefor Columbia
to do anything in requital OF the SER
vices thus repeatedly rendered to it
for fifty. seven years by the United
States, the Columbian government
peremptorily and Extensively refused
thus to do it's part, even though to
do so would have been to its advan-
tage and UNNECESSARILY to the ad-
vantage OF the state OF Panama.
Under such circumstances the gov
eminent OF the United States would
have been guilty OF folly and weak,
ness, amounting in their sum to a
crime against the nation, had it act
ed otherwise than it did when the
revolution OF November 3 last took
place in Panama.
BY the provisions of the treaty the
United States guarantees and will
maintain the independence OF the re-
public of Panama.-From the an
nual message OF President Roosevelt
to the second session OF the Fifty
eighth Congress.

b. deceived. That there are cheats
aud frauds in plenty every body
knows; but IL is seldom or never
that any large business house ia
guilty Of them, no matter what
line Of trade il follows. There
can be no permanent success Of
any kind based on dishonesty or
deception. There never was, and
never will be. The men who try
that are simply fools and soon
come to grief-as they deserve.
Now many persons are, neverthe-
less, afraid to buy certain adver-
tised articles lest they be hum
plugged and deluded; especially
are they slow to place confidence
in published statements Of the
merits of medicines. The effec-
tive modern remedy known as
WAMPoLE'S PREPARATION
is as safe and genuine an article
to purchase as flour, silk or cot
ton goods from the mills of man
ufacturers with a worldwide re-
putation. We could not afford to
exaggerate its qualities or misre-
present it in the least; and it is
not necessary. 1t is palatable as
honey and contains the nutritive
and curative properties of Pure
Cod Liver Oil, extracted by us
from fresh cod livers, combined
with the Compound Syrup of
Hypophosphites and the Extracts
of Malt and Wild Cherry; and
how valuable such blending Of
these important medicinal agents
must be is plain to everybody.
1t is beyond price in Weakness
and lack of Nervous Tone, Ane-
mia, Scrofula, La Grippe, Lung
Troubles and Impurities of the
Blood. Science can furnish no
thing better-perhaps nothing so
good. DIR. w. II. Dale, of Cana
da, says: 81 have used it in my
practice and take pleasure in re-
commencing it as valuable ton
ic and reconstructive." 1t is
remedy that can afford to appeal
to it's record and represents the
science and knowledge of bright
and aggressive medical investiga-
ton. Effective from the first
dose. Sold by all chemists hero.
