a Weak
Stomach

Indigestion Is often caused by over
eating. An eminent authority says
the harm done thus exceeds that from
the excessive use of alcohol. Eat all
the good food you want but don'tOver-
load the stomach. A weak stomach
may refuse to digest what you eat.
Then you need O good digestant like
Kodol, which digests your food with.
out the stomach's aid. This rest and
the wholesome tonics Kodol contains
soon restore health. Dieting unneces-
sary. Kodol quickly relieves the feel
ing OF fulnesS and bloating from
which some people suffer after meals.
Absolutely cures indigestion.

HIS CLOSING YEARS.
The Venerable washington Was Not
Permitted to Live Them In
Peace and Quiet.

While Washington was permitted to
spend his remaining days at Mou.t
Vernon, he did not succeed in finding
the peace and leisure that he had
lopged for. His house was filed with
guests, and his correspondence was
large and laborious. In one of the
Kaleidoscope changes in the govern
ment OF France the United States was
on the verge of war with that people.
and Washington was made command
er-in-chief of the forces which were
tC be raised. He accepted under pro-
test. with the condition that he should
not be called in active service unless
the country was invaded. The cloud
passed over. however, without war.
During his closing years he took great
interest in projects for opening up
commerce with the country being set
tiled west of the Alleghenies, and made
a donation which led to the establish
ment of Washington college, now
Washington and Lee university. He
took much interest in the Society of
the Cincinnati, comprising commits
stoned officers of the revolution. The
care of his estates took up the re-
mainder of his time, and of leisure ne
had none. The end came December
IA. 1893, through cold he took from
getting wet in looking over his es-
tate.

AS A PLANTER.
tatiOn and Marketed His
Crop of Tobacco.

AS Virginia planter Washington's
chief crop was tobacco. This tobacco
was shipped to the London market
under his own name, loaded upon YES
sells which sailed up the Potomac to
Mount Vernon, or other landings
convenient to 1t. An agent in Lon
don disposed of the shipments.
Twice a year Washington would
forward lists Of needful articles for
farm and household to this agent, re-
questing that the things be purchased
and shipped to Mount Vernon. Wear
ing apparel in this way was ordered
for every member OF his family, the
names and measurements Of each per-
son being given.
In addition to the general bill for
these purchases made by the agent.
the latter was required to forward re-
ceipted bills from those persons OF
whom he bought goods. In this way
. check was kept upon the purchases
made. In those days a. q planter
Washington was his own bookkeeper,
and the care with which his books
were kept IL an example Of the Thor
oughness that made the man.

THE season Of catching cold is upon

sTHE season of catching cold is upon
i us. The cough and the sneeze and
! nasal twang are to be heard on
every hand. The origin of chronic
cat.rrh, the most common and dreadful
Of diseases, is cold.
This is the way the chronic catarrh
generally begins A person catches cold,
which hangs on longer than usual. The
cold generally starts in the head and
throat. Thenfollows sensitivenes SIS of the
air passages which incline one to catch
cold very easily. At last the person has
q cold all the while seemingly, more or
less discharge from the nose, hawking,
splitting, frequent clearing of the throat,
nostrils stopped up, full feeling in the
head and sore, inflamed throat.
The best time to treat catarrh is at
the very beginning. A bottle Of Peruna
properly used never fails to cufe n com
mon cold, thus preventing chronic
catarrh.
While many people have been cured
of chronic catarrh by single bottle of
Peruna, yet, rs rule, when the catarrh
becomes thoroughly fixed, more than
one bottle is necessary to complete q
cure. Peruna has cured cases innumer-
able Of catarrh of twenty years stand
ing. It is the best, IL not the only
internal remedy for chronic catarrh in
existence.
Butprevention is far better than cure.
Every person subject to catching cold
should take Peruna ut once at the
slightest symptom of cold or sore
throat at this season of the year and
Tins prevent what is almost certain to
end in chronic catarrh.

The heights are still in the MINDLESS air,
And the meadows ali aglow
With aster-blooms and goidenrods,
While the river winds below.
And the leaning hills enfoid
The guarded gates of the stored camp,
AS there in the days Of old.
Peace reigns to-day where the campfires
burned
And the winter smoke upcurled,
While the loyal sons of freedom held
The fate of the vast New World.
The woodpecRer beats his sharp tattoo,
The Jay with a scream upsprings,
And far in his note of quick alarm
The sentinel's challenge rings!
In shadows that drift across the hills,
Or trail In the tangled grass,
The ghostly flies Of an army march
To-day, as the shadows pass.
Along the lines of the old redoubt,
BY valley and meadows wide.
Where the winter fires 10 ashes turned,
The shadowy legions glide.
Their footprints blush with a crimson stain.
They reel through hunger and cold,
While faces pale with fever and pain
Cow yet with hope untold.
Brave hearts and true of the olden time |,
Dim shades OF the long ago!
Who kept the vigil of Freedom we'll
At Valley Forge In the snow. ~

Washington. Care for Relatives.

Mary Washington, mother of George,
lived until she was SO years old, and
died only ten years before her son.
She Is chiefly remembered from her
proud title of Mother of Washing
ton" Her influence upon the devel-
opment of his character in youth and
early manhood seems to have been
slight. for he was not at home much
after he was IA years old. He never
claimed his share Of his fathers es-
tate, which was in her possession, and
he gave her direct support during
much of her life. Washington was
hurt deeply by proposition made in
the Virginia assembly to give his
mother a pension, and at his earnest
request the proceedings were stopped
He was devotedly attached TO his
stepehildren, and treated them with
the greatest kindness. He carefully
educated his nephews. and one. Bush

AND EUROPE
BY COMPARISON, AMERICA IS FIFTH IN RANK AMONG THE NAVAL
 POWERS OF THE WORLD.
In Ships Commissn0ns and in Ships Un- der Construction Takes Third Place - Russia's COnditiOn as to Bat
 tleships Is Not Definitely
 Known. H

Washington Special to Brooklyn
 Eagle.
 The United States now ranks fifth among the naval powers, according to a statement by the Bureau of Naval Intelligence. In the course of two or three years, however. the United StaGes will have outstripped two of it's rivals in the matter of sea powers and will be close upon the heels of the nation that now holds second place.
 In a complication recently made no accounts is taken of the naval losses sustained by Russia in her war with Japan The reason for this Is the in definite and inaccurate reports regard ing the damage sustained by the Czar's batIeships and cruisers. Russia Is credited by the present statment with possessing twenty battleships, and 1t it because of this supposed strength that Russia Is placed third. It is more than likely, however, that Japan has destroyed several of these craft, so that Russia's real strength is less than that for which she is given credit. In this event Germany. which is ranked fourth. should be moved up one notch which would make the United States the fourth ranking nation among the sea powers. Battleship strength Is the most important element taken into consideration in rating the sea powers. Great Britain easily leads in this re- gard, having fifty-one battleships of the first class, all of them being io,- 900 tons each or over.
 France comes second. with nineteen battleships of 10000 tons each or more, and with large number of coast de- fense vessels and armored cruisers. By virtue of her possessions among the latter classes France obtains second place. for Russia outranks her in the number of first class battleships own ed having twenty. Germany has slx- teen battleships of the first class; the United States has twelve; Italy las thirteen and Japan has four.
 In armored cruisers Great Britain easily surpasses the other nations, and in this respect the United States is sad ly deficient. compared with the possess sions of England and France. Great Britain owns twenty mine armored cruisers. France has eighteen, Russia has seven. Germany has four, the Uni ted States has two. Japan has five. Italy has eight and Austria has two.
 Our government Is also deficient Tn cruisers above 5000 tons, of which we have two, against twenty-one by Eng land, four by Franco, six by Russia, none by Germany and none by the oth- CT powers England has fifty cruisers of from 5000 to 5000 tons each, France has eighteen. Russia has six. Germany has nine, the United States has sixteen. Italy has five.

of them, against fifty-six owned by England. eighteen by France. eight by Russia, twenty-seven by Germany and twelve each by Italy and Japan.
 In torpedo equipment England is away ahead in the matter of 5estroy- CTS, having 126 vessels of this tyre. against thirty-one for France, forty. one for Russia, thirty-seven for Ger many and sixteen for the United States.
 An anaIysia of the table of vesssls building puts a different aspect up,n the situation. We have moro baItle- ships building than any other nation. not excepting England. In the impor- tant element of batleships of the first class we have twelve under ..astruc- tion, against only six for Germany. four for Russia, six for France and eight for England. We are also ahead of all nations save England in the num- Der of armored cruisers building. We have eight ships of this class under way. against three for Germany, six for France and an even dozen for Eng land. Save in the unimportant items of torpedo boats and torpedo boat de- stroyers we are abreast of or ahead of Germany. France and Russia. Eng land has a comparatively large num- ber of these smaller craft building. The showing of vessels building is most gratifying to those who desire to see the United States assume q command- ing position on the sea. If the ships now building for all nations were com pleted today the United States would outrank Germany and Russia, and there would not be such a wide discrepancy between France and the United States.
