paw paw.

NO stomach is beyond the help of
Munyon's Paw Paw, no matter how
wearied or inflamed or abused it may
be. Improvement starts with the first
dose. Vicious appetites are weakened
from the outset, and are soon entirely
obliterated. The slavery to drink, to
morphine, to stimulants of any kind
that are wrecking so many careers and
shortening SO many lives, is a disease.
There is no hope to escape this slavery
without getting the stomach into nor
NAL condition. There can be none of
this slavery if the stomach is in nor
NAL condition. Munyon's Paw Paw
will restore almost any stomach to its
youthful vigor. Ministers of the Cos
pei, temperance workers, philanthro-
pists and well-wishers for the race,
wherever they are, can in no way scat
ter blessings so great and so important
to the physical and mental welfare of
the Incorporate as by bringing them
to a knowledge of Munyon's Paw Paw.
What Mr.. J. D. Hall, Jr., manager
Providence News Summer Resort Blu
reau, says about Munyon's Paw Paw:
Il find by personal use of Munyon's
Paw Paw that as a tonic it invigOratcS,
and for inaction of the stomach that it
is indeed Il wonderful medicine. l
cheelfully recommend it to all who are
in need of superior digestive agent"
Hun Greds of thousands more are
saying the same thing. Paw Paw takes
away the appetite for strong drink. 1t

CABINET MEETINGS SUSPENDED
None Will Be Held During the Hoii-
day Recess.

Washington, Dec. 23.-No cabinet
meetings will be held during the holi-
day recess Both President Roosevelt
and his official advisers will observe
the recess SO far as public service will
permit. Such business as the several
cabinet officers may have with the
president will be brought to his atten-
tion by them as individuals, unless
some emergency should arise which
should render it necessary for the cab
met TO assemble as a body for its con
sideratiOn
Such callers as the president may
receive during the holidays will have
to make their engagements for the
afternoons as he will spend no time in
his office during the mornings.
Secretary Moody had a brief confer
ence with the president during the
day. They considered the latest Off
cial adyices received by the navy de-
partment from the isthmus of Pan

are Of no great importance. Both the
president and Secretary Moody are

tion through the naval officers al the
isthmus. Should anything either sig
nificant or important occur there the
administration will be advised imme-

GET A WARM RECEPTION.
1ghwaymen Attempt to Hold UP Ev
anston (ill.) Car.

Chicago. Dec. 23-Two highwaymen
who held up an Evanston avenue elec.
trio car met with so warm reception
from the car crew and Deputy Sheriff
Albert Tempke that they fed without
securing any booty.
The car was attacked within two
blocks Of the Town Hall police sta
ton and the score of passengers were
thrown into a panic.
One of the highwaymen stood in
the middle of the track when the car
was half a block away and signaled
Tor il 10 stop. When one footpad
boarded the front end Of the car Paul
Jenkinson, the motorman. saw a re-
volyer in the mans hand. Without a
moments hesitation the motorman
jerked the crank from his brake and
struck the robber on the head. knock
ing MIN from the car and telling him
10 the street
AZ the same time the second thie'
got on the rear platform of the car,
drew revolver and pointed it at the
head of Deputy Sheriff Tempke. The
officer saw the movement and struck
the robber a blow in the face, stag
gering him. Conductor Hiram Savage
followed up the advantage thus gained
by showing the man off the platform
Tempke ran after the robbers, but
both escaped.

PRESIDENT DISCUSSES WOODS
NOMINATION WITH INTER
ESTED SENATORS.
OTHER OFFICERS NEED HAVE NO FEAR
WOOD WILL NOT SUCCEED CHAT
FEE AS LIEUTENANT GEN
ERAL OF ARMY.

Washington. Dec 2S.-To some OF
the senators who have particularly in
terested themselves in the pending
Wood nomination with an eye espe-
cially 10 the protection of some OF the
veteran officers of the army the presi.
dent has expressed himself very plain
ly to the effect that these officers have
nothing to fear in the immediate fu-
ture. As it was pointed out to him
that there was considerable apprehen-
sion among the friends of these army
officers lest upon the retirement OF
General Chaffee with the rank of lieu
tenant general the president might ap-
point Majcr General Leonard Wood to
be lieutenant general, involving the
jumping" OF a number of distin-
would have a chance TO attain the
highest rank by reason of General
Woods incumbeney for the place for
fifteen years, the president has ex-
pressly declared that he has no such
intention. Incidentally that involved
an undertaking on his part to promote
some of these general officers referred
To after General Chaffees retirement.
But he did not state that when he
made such promotions as he saw fit he
would not close the list by appointing
General Wood TO be lieutenant gen.
eral
The understanding thus reached
with the senators is expected to have
an important influence upon the ac-
ton that will be had upon the Wood
nomination.

In an interview later in the day Ad
miral Walker said:

Regarding the landing of Colombian
troops on the Island of Pines he said
IT is miles from the island to the
mainland and | do not think that they
will land in Panama | do not look
for any trouble. The marines will be
able to deal with any situation which

Able to Leave His Room for First
Time in Two Weeks.

Washington, Dec 23.-After two
weeks confinement from an attack OF
grip and cold Secretary Hay is at last
able to leave his bedroom and spend
most OF each day in his library, where
he transacts a good deal of business
requiring his personal attention or in
which he is particularly interested.
He still suffers from hoarseness incl
dent to the rather, severe broncnlai
attack, which yields very slowly to
treatment and which recalls an attack
of the same kind from which he suf-
fered last winter involving a trip TO
Thomasville. Ga, for recuperation
However, the approach of the Christ
mas holidays and the necessity of en-
tertaining the diplomatic body at the
annual New Years breakfast at his
own home probably will prevent the
taking of a like trip at this time.
