Tendency of the Times.

The tendency OF medical science is to-
waro preventive measures. The best
thought OF the Of the world is being
given to the subject. 1t is easier and
better TO prevent than to cure. 1t las
oeen fully demonstrated that pneu-
monia. one of the moet dangerous dis
eases that medical men have to contend
with. can be prevented by the use of
Chamberlain Cough Remedy. Pneu-
monia always results from a cold or
from an attack of influenza grip and
it has been observed that this remedy
counteracts and tendency of these dis
eases toward pneumonia, This has
been fully proven in many thousands of
cases in which this remedy has been
used during the great prevalence OF
colds and grip in recent yeare. and can
be relied upon with implicit confidence.
Pneumonia often results from a slight
cold when no danger is apprehended
until it is suddenly discovered that there
is fever and difficulty in breathing and
pains in the chest, then it is announced
that the patient has pneumonia. Be on
the safe side aud take Chamderlain's

the relief of the situation in which the
blockade places the people and gov
eminent of Venezuela. The contention
of the three allies that they shall be
given preferential treatment in the
settlement ard payment of their claims
nations is the point on which the nego-
tiatfon now hang fire.
No Preferences, Says Bowen.
Minister Bowen is insistent that the
allies shall not have preferential treat
ment in the matter of the payment
of the claims. and in all his confer
ences. with the representatives of the
European governments here he has
made his position very clear. 1t is
known that lie has declined to modify
his demands IN this respect. Pressure
along certain influential lines has been
brought to bear on the allies to have
them accept the justice of Bowen's
contention. The rejection of his prOpo-
sitiOn for the treatment of all the
creditors alike, it Is believed here
would result in throwing the case to
The Hague tribunal, before which
body all the nations having claims
against Venezuela would be placed on
On equal footing.
Allies Shy OF The Hague Tribunal.
1t Is known that the allies would
prefer that this should not be done, as
consideration Of the claims by that
body would entail much delay In their
settlement, and there are other features
which make it desirable to the allies
that the claims be settled outside Of
that body. One Of them Is that If they
came before The Hague Venezuela
would have the right to set up counter
claims as an offset to those presented
by the allies. These could be made
to reduce considerably the amount Of
money to be paid by Venezuela.
Bowen's Promise to France.
1t is learned that on the second day
after his arrival here Minister Bowen
Informed the French diplomatic repre-
sentative in Washington that the.
French claims would be treated on the
same basis as claims of the allies, and
would be taken up after the blockade
was raised. Relying on this assur-
ance the French government has re-
manned inactive, but it is stated that
should the allied powers be granted
preferential treatment France would
take steps ut once to protect her yene-
zuelan interests.
