China IS TOO
ARROGANT.

washington, Feb. 9.-The
Chinese relations, according to a
state department official, will be
the next important phase in the
American foreign policy. The
United States is approaching a
point where either the arrogance
of the great merchant classes of
China must be endured to the ex-
termination of Americas trade in
that country, or else this govern
ment must pursue a policy of arm
ed inSistence that will reestabilsh
the prestige of the country and
rhe country'S trade throughout all
China.
The Chinese boycott is now
considered an effect, not a cause.
The exclusion laws cannot account
for the feeling against America.
Outside influences are now work
ing on the Chinese and Japanese.
German and British agencies are
tireless workers in the trade CEN
tiers of the empire; while bad faith
has been charged to these gorvern-
omentS, they would hardly despair
if the American trade in the
Orient was destroyed.
In the Philippines troops are
being increased in numbers. The
insular army is also being placed
on a war footing. 1t is believed
here also that the Asiatic squadron
will be increased by the addition
of cruisers and battle ships.

EAT WHAT You LIKE.
Don't StaFVe or Diel, But Use Mi-O-na,
and Care Y0ur Stomach Troubles.

The average treatment of
stomach troubles consists of a
rigid diet list, which often half
starves the patient. OF course it
would be foolish for anyone who
knows that some foods are
positively harmful and poisonous
TO continue eating them, even
while following the Mi-o-na treat
ment, but in ordinary cases of
stomach trOubIes,i it is not neces-
sary TO Starve or diet if Mi-o-na
is faithfully used, a tablet before
each meal.
This scientific remedy, for the
cure of stomach troubles, acts up
on the whole digestive system,
and strengthens the organs so that
they are able to digest any food
that is eaten without fear OF dis
tress.
Hooper Drug Go. have so
much confidence in the power of
NJ iona to cure stomach troubles
and resulting ills, that they give a
guarantee with every 50 cent box
to refund the money unless it
cures.
