The American "Drummer."

A United States consul sends to the
state department a bit of advice for
American business houses that intend
seeking trade in Spanish-American
countries. Cheap travelling sales
men who can pick up orders in a
brisk and breezy fashion," he de-
clares, will not be able to do much
business there. Statesmen of culture
and education, with polished manners
and knowledge of the languages and
customs of the people among whom
they go, he believes to be essential.
The consul's intentions are good,
and it is easy to sac the point he
seeks to make. American business
houses would doubtless do well to
remember his words of caution. But
he has a wrong conception of the
American travelling salesman. The
type lie has in mind figures more
largely on the stage and in the books
of fiction than on the road. The roy
stering. fiashy "spellbinding" drum
mer has practically disappeared. The
knights of the grip, while they may
not be composite Lord Chesterfields
and j. Pierpont Morgans, are quiet,
level-headed. capable men of business.
They seek, says the Cleveland Leader,
to obtain and hold trade by a thorough
knowledge of the branch of it they are
in and by deserving the confid ence of
the men they deal with. The COM
mercial traveller of to-day does not re-
sort to tricks. He transacts business
on business basis, and succeeds on
his merits. Such accomplished gen.
tlemen as are described by the consul
would doubtless have an immense ad-
vantage over their less gifted brethren
in Latin-America, but the supply of
them is bound to be limited. 1t is a
safe prediction that the plain, ordi-
nary American travelling men will get
their full share of the business in
Mexico and Central and South Amer
lea.

HERE AND THERE.

The landlord and tenant system is
the bane of north Texas, saws a cor
respondent. We need moro small
farmers who own their lands. A rent
er never plants a tree, builds a house
or even repairs a gate or fence if he
can avoid it.
Times have SO changed that no
careful poultryman thinks of feeding
much soft poultry food, nor of placing
it upon the ground. re feels dry
food mostly, and puts it into troughs
or upon Exchange.
I'm Alabama, where Bermuda grass
it permitted to grow beneath the pear
trees, the blight Of the trees is not
half so destructive as where the lands
are fe-tilized and cxltibated.

AtmospherLc POISONING.

The protests against the automo-
bile omnibuses of London have re-
ceived a powerful reinforcement by
a declaration of Sir James Dewar on
the chemical basis. He is undoubted-
ly among the high chemical authori.
ties of the world, and his condemna-
ton of the motor buses and freight
vans seems conclusive unless inven-
ton provides innocuous motive power
Sir James Dewar states that the
combustion Of petrol or gasoline in
these motors throws off vast quanti-
ties of noxious gases. Some of these
are absolutely poisonous and all in
furious. He holds that the air of Lon
don is bad enough already without
the addition of carbonic acid gas, the
sulphurous gases, and, worst of all,
the asphyxiating carbonic oxide.
Moreover, while he admits that sci
ence can improve motors, he declares
that it is impossible for it to burn pc
troll and rerder the resulting gases
innocuous.

The local pride of the natives of

it takes the attitude of pity for all
who have the misfortune TO dwell else

spected.
One rainy day a newcomer. who had
joined the gathering at the store,
composed of fishermen and summer

of the distinguished men who had
come from Maine.
There's Longfellow," he said, "and

CANS FOUGHT CLEAN.
Battle for Title Waged for Forty
Two Rounds


Arena, Goldfield, New, Sept. 3. -
Battling Nelson tonight deliberately
fouled Joe Cans in the forty-second
round of the best and longest fight
seen here in many years. Both men
were tired when the fight ended, but
Cans was apparently the stronger.
He was away ahead on points, and
had smashed and cut Nelson all
through the fight without being badly
hurt himself Shortly after the forty
second round commenced the men
were in their usual clinch. Nelson
had his head on Cans shoulder and
his arm down. Several times he hit
Cans below the belt, apparently feel
ing for a vital spot. At last he drew
back his right arm and hit Cans a
vicious blow square in the groin. The
colored boy sank to his knees and
rolled over on his back Referee
Siler without hesitation ordered Mel
son to his corner and awarded the
fight to Cans on a foul. Siler's de
cision received almost unanimous ap-
prevail The foul was so obvious that
not even men who had bet on Mel
son could say that it had not been
committed. All through the long con-
test Nelson had employed rough tao
tics He repeatedly butted Cans ami
had to have his head hauled away b.

I had spells Of vomiting, could not eat,

tress after eating. My stomach was filed
with gas which caused me awful agony.
The backache suffered was at times
almost unbearable and the least exertion
made my heart beat so fast that / could
hardly breathe. But the worst of all was
the splitting neuralgia headache which
never left me for seven weeks. About this
time I had had several numb spells. Ny
limbs would be cold and without any
feeling and the most deathly sensations
would come over me.
ssNothing had helped me until I began
taking DIR. Williams Pink Pills, in fact,
had grown worse every day. After
had taken the pills short time / could
see that they were benefiting me and
one morning awoke entirely free from
pain. The distress after eating disap-
peared and in three weeks could eat

Oyster Bay. N. Y, Sept. 3.-Presi-
dent Roosevelt today, within hailing
distance of his summer home, re-

tory as the meeting ground of the
plenipotentiaries of Russia and

Americas military forces.
President Roosevelt had as his
guests on the May1ower the secre-
tary of the navy and several other
government officials, members of the
senate and house committees on
naval affairs and the naval attaches
of eight of the powers of the world.
