II is reported that the White Star line
win build a steamship 100 feet long, or
thirty feet longer than the Baltic, which
is now the largest ship in the world.
Unless Mr., Hill rushes work on his big
liners, now building at New London,
Conn, they will be very ordinary sized
v ssels by the time he gets them in op-
Grafton. The advertising department of
the Great Northern was using the di-
mensions and plans OF the great Hill
steamers 10 the limit long before the
keel of the Baltic was laid, and at that
time they we're the largest vessels ever
planned, but 700 feet steamers have be-
come more numerous since then, and the
Baltic win be crossing the Atlantic long
before Mr.. Hills steamers are ready for
service. AS have frequently been stated,
there is no demand on the Pacific for
steamers Of the type built by Mr.. Hill,
but the fact that even larger vessels are
becoming quite common on the Atlantic
would indicate that there win be route
on which they can run with a profit. but
with smaller returns on advertising ac-
count.

The war scare in the Far East is pro-
ductive of some strange news in the
other East, and the pipedreamers who
keep in touch with the market are not
slow in sending it along. Among other
market gossip that hasldfifted west over
the wires within the past few days is
Minneapolis report that large orders for
-four for shipment to Japan have been
placed in that city. One order for 10O,-
600 barrels in particular has been men
toned for three successive days. Con-
sidering the fact, says the Oregonian
that not ton Of space has been engaged
by the Minneapolis shippers on any Of
the Oriental steamers, and the further
fact that japan is refusing to buy flour,
even at reduced rates, the Minneapolis
report is not taken very seriously. 1t
may be that the shippers are figuring on
sending the -four by wireless telegraph,
but this is not believed to be satisfac-
tory solution of the mystery surrounding
the vast sales that have been made since
the enterprising dreamers began smok-
ing up.

per and grinds some one else's axe is an
redeemable idiot, and because there
are SO many such in the business is the
reason why Mr.. Bain's observation is
susceptible Of proof. Lytton created
the most artistic "easy mark' in htera-
ture in Richelieu's servile tool, the priest
Joseph. When the old ecclesiastical
schemer wanted any particular dirty
piece of work done he would call this
credulous ambition -devoured church
man to him, hand him few verbal bou-
quets, pat him on the back and say:
"Joseph, you will be bishop YET"
And Joseph would do his masters's bid
ding, not having enough sayy to reply,
"Show me-" And he never became a
bishop. Burns Herald.

way are Chamberlain's Stomach and

cathartic and liver pills? Our answer

to take aud their effect is SO gentle and
SO egreeable that one hardly realizes
that it is produced by medicine. Then
they not only move the bowels but i'm

Mr. Cleveland has lived in the time 0

Mr. Cleveland has lived in the time Of
more ADMINISTRATIONS than any one who
has sver been president. He was born
il 1887. n that year Martin Van Buren,
was inaugurated president, consequently
Mr.. Cleveland has lived in the admins
trations Of Van Buren, the short term of
William Henry Harrison and the re-
mainder ofthe term to which Tyler sue
ceeded; also In the administrations of
Polk, Taylor, Fillmore, Pierce, Bucha-
nan, Lincoln, Johnson, Arthur, Benja-
min Harrison, Mckinley and thus far
in the administration of Roosevelt-in
all 10, and including his own 20. Mr..
Cleveland has not only lived in the ad-
ministrations mentioned, but he has
lived to see six vice presidents succeed
to the presidency, three Of them-John-
son, Arthur and Roosevelt coming to
Athe White House through the assassina-
ton OF Their predecessors. The others
we're Van Buren, Tylor and Fillmore.
The fact that MIR, Cleveland is the only
president who succeeded himself for
years after his first administration is well

chamberlain,s Cough Remedy.

No one who is acquainted with its good
qualities can be surprised at the great
popularity of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy. 1t not only cures colds and
grip efectually and permanently, but
prevents these diseases from resulting in
pneumonia. 1t is also certain cure
for Group. Whooping cough is not dan
gerous when this remedy is given. II
contains no opium or other harmful sub
stance and may be given As confidently
to baby as to an adult. 1t is also
pleasant to take. When all Of these
facts are taken into consideration it is
not surprising that people in foreign
lands as well as at home, esteem this
remedy very highly and very few are
willing to take any other after having
once used it. For sale by all druggists

Hyomei, the Only Guaranteed Cure
For Catarrh.
No one should confound Hyomei
with the patent medicines that are adj
vertised to cure catarrh. It is as far
superior to them all as the diamond is
more valuable than cheap glass.
Their composition is secret. but Hyo-
mel gives it's formula to all reputable
physicians and is prescribed by them
generally.
The only way to cure catarrh and
all other diseases of the respiratory
organs is to breathe Hyomei.
This treatment has been so sue
cessful in curing SO per cent of all
who have used it, that Hyomei is now
sold by Jones' & Collins under an abso-
lutte guarantee to refund the money in
case it does not benefit. You run no
risk whatever in buying Hyomei. If
it did not possess unusual powers to
cure, it could not be sold upon this
plan.
