Depends On That Treaty.

San Juan, p. r., Jan. 15.-While
stretched on a cot in the hospital
here General Charles Carlos F. Mo
rales, former president of Santo Do
mingo, who arrived her on the United
States gunboat Dubuque, requested
the Associated Press to convey to the
American people, particularly to
President Roosevelt and others of the
authorities at Washington, the ex-
preston of his sincere thankfulness
for the assistance accorded him while
president of the republic.
"The future salvation of Santo
Domingo" he said, "is dependent en-
tirely on the ratification of the pend
ing convention by the United States
senate and congress of Santo Domin-
go. believe that the majority of the
people of the republic agree with me
in this, as they all know that the
continuance of the revolutionary agi-
tation means continual ruination.
The general says he is satisfied
that he has worked for the welfare of
his country to the best OF his ability.
His broken ankle was the result of
the parting of a rope of vines by
which he was trying to climb a pre-
cipice, and was not caused by a fall
from his horse as reported.

lily will arrive this week.

Are You Tired, Nervous

Nervousness and seepleSsness are us- ualig due to the fact that the nerves are not fed on properly nourishing blood; they are stdTUed nerves. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery makes pure, rich blood, and thereby the nerves are properly nOarished and all the organs of the body are run Rs smoothly as machin- cry which runs in oil In this way you feel clean, strong and strenuoue-you are toned up and inyigCrated, and you ar,' good for a whole lot of physical or mental work. Best of all, the strength and in- crease in vitality and health are tdstlpq.
 The trouble with most tonies and med icines which have large, booming sale for short time, Is that they are largely composed of alcohol holding the drugs In solution. This alcohol shrinks up the red blood corpnScles, and in the long run greatly intures the system.
