Spring Medicine

There is no other season when good
medicine is so much needed as in the
Spring.
The blood is impure, weak and
impoverished-a condition indicated
by pimples and other eruptions on the

loss of appetite, lack of strength, and
want of animation.

The United States was the first
power, so far as known, to apply to the
Korean government for the opening of
Wiju to the worlds trade. This action
was taken while Japan and England
were urging the opening of Yongam-
pho, lying at the mouth of the Yalu
river on the Korean side. The view
taken by the state department was
that if we could secure the opening
of Wiju, $50 miles up the Yalu above
Yongampho, the effect would be to
practically open the whole of that
stretch of the river to commerce, so
that the project really was much
larger than the mere opening Of a port
at the mouth of the river. Wiju lies
on the opposite side of the river and
very near to An Tung, in Manchuria,
which the Chinese government already
has by treaty with the United States
declared to be an open port, although
this has never been admitted by Rus
STA It is understood that the opening
Of Wiju is directly attributable to
Japanese ascendancy in Korea, for
while the country was under Russian
influences Mr.. Allen, the American
minister, was unable to induce the king
to open a single port in addition to
Chemulpo. It is probable that the
state department at once will take
steps to have America represented at
Wiju by a consular or commercial
agent

VINITA FAIR
WANDERERS
Take a Pike Trip After Sam
pIing Breakfast Foods.

ST. Louis, Sept. 23.-They we're
standing in front Of Creation" on
Pike. 1t was one Of those hot nights
which st. Louis occasionally hands
out to Worlds Fair visitors. She was
fat, puffy and short-winded and was
vigorously welding a fan. Between
putfs she said:
s.DOn't you think we ought to see
that other show called Hereafter
Wiping the perspiration from his
face and looking at her in astonish-
ment, he beloved: ''Gee whizl isn't
this hot enough for you?"
You will see from this that we have
been down the Pike. But / am happy
to say that / didn't yield until had
made a most interesting journey
through Alaska, Ceylon, East India,
the Indian Schools OF Oklahoma and
the Palace of Agriculture Having
slowed away in his stomach samples
of all kinds of breakfast foods, toma-
to soup, prunes, doughnuts, chocolate,
hot biscuits, grape juice, jello, substi-
tutes for coffee, pickles and catsup,
given him in the food section Of the
Agricultural building, John said he
was in fine condition to 60 down the
Pike.
The Pike at night is the peppery
salad that goes with the educational
feast one gets in the exhibit palaces.
Mingled with the bedlam of noisy
megaphones are the screach and bel
lowings of Hagenbeck's animals and
the roar Of the cannonading in the
battle of Santiago. 1t is combina-
tion Of lights, clashing gongs, moving,
excited humanity and picturesque
architecture that win linger long in|
one'e memory. When it comes to
costly, ornate architecture and really
high class attractions, speaking in the
curbstone yernacular, it has the mid
way Of Chicago faded to pale pea

Pike, I am told cost S750,OO0. From
the snow-capped SUBMITS of the Ty-
rolean Alps at one end to Hale's Fire

the other there are fifty different
shows in preparation on which have
been expended between four and five
millions of dollars.

TO HOLD CHINA RESPONSIBLE
Paris, Aug. l0.--rhc French minister
at Toxic has not yet communicated To
The foreign Office the text OF Russia's
protest against the cutting out OF the
torpedo boat destroyer Ryeshltelnl al
Chefoo the transmission OF which has
been delayed owing to Foreign Minis
Ger Delcasse's absence. The matter is
not regarded as serious International
complications not being anticipated. IL
A. believed that Japan will reply that
she had the right TO ascertain whether
the vessel was dismantled and found
that she was not wholly disarmed
whereupon the Russian commander
assaulted the japanese commander,
thus provoking a climax Russia Will
probably dispute the facts and the mat
ter will hang over until the peace set
ilement
The report that the Japanese consul
at Shanghai has been ordered to inform
China that she Will be held responsible
for the disarmament OF the Askod and
Grozovoi Is officially confirmed. Well
Informed circles have no doubt that
China will fulnll her obligations and
they consider that the presence Of nu-
merous warships of various nationals
ties at Shanghai is sufficient guarantee
that Japan will not attempt TO violate
the neutrality Of the port.
