Friend Who Lives Nearby-is Al

Princeton, N. j., Sept. 22.--"Former
President Grover Cleveland is improy-
ing in health"
This was the statement inade by a
very intimate friend of Mr.. Cleve-
land, who resides in Princeton, and
who has kept In close touch with the
former president during his late i'll
ness. The gentleman who talked with
a reporter tonight, said that as a per-
sonal favor he would ask that the
reports concerning Mr.. CleYelands
present condition be denied, declaring
that they are grossly exaggerated. Mr..
Cleveland, he said, is rapidly picking
up in health.
On account OF the bad weather here
today the former president was con-
fined to the house, but he was dress
ed and went about and read the news
papers, as is his custom. hegarding
yesterdays stories OF a wrangle be-
tween Mr.. Cleyeland's physicians, no
verifcation could be got in Prince
ton today. Very few callers were ad-
mitted to the Cleveland home today,
because the former president must re-
main quiet according to Doctors Or
ders.

IRON OPTIMISM.

The discovery of rich iron ore de-
posits in eastern Cuba seems to add
not less than per cent to the total
supply which was credited to the
world by very high Swedish auth
ority last year. IL means so per cent
more for this country. Not that Cuba
was then rec koned part o, the Am
-eriCan republic or is to be so con-
sidered now, but the finding of 500,-
-eOO, coo or 60OOOo,OOO tons of ore in
Cuba adds about so per cent to the
total amount Of iron calculated to be
available for use in the United States
THE Cuban ore will find its natural
market here.
n the Iron trade took seriously such
estimates of the ore deposits in this
country as The Swedish guess Of 1,100,-
-OOO,OtO tons the addition of half a
billion tons would have much effect
Upon the ore market American blast
furnaces are now using 10000, 900 tons
Of ore or upwards In a year. With
1.-THE growth Of the country to be reck-
oned- with, they will probably con-
--sume 1,1OO, ,OO0, 600 tons--the total al
lowed by the Swedish experts-in If

: wonld-mcans perhaps seven years long.
er life for the chief metal industry Of
: America. II would be an event of tire.
= mendous Importance
= But thesiron trade has refused to
take the ore outlook so seriously.
:. II has remembered the vast addi-
tions made to the supposed stock Of
- iron ore in the United States, from
time to time, within the last half
century. II Is inclined to believe that
this country may have 500O,000O0O
tons OF ore-say enough for the next
fifty years at twice the present rate
Of consumption. That Is not long
look ahead, but It is sufficient for
all present calculations and purposes !
in the iron industry.
However, the big bed Of ore found |
in Cuba Is a welcome addition TO the |
visible supply Of iron. II will mean
much for the iron and steel industry |
OF the Atlantic coast, and also for
Cuba. incidentally IL will form an
other bond OF union between that is.
land and its big and oyershadowing
neighbor.

THE VALUE OF DRUGS.
(TOlpdO NeWs-Bce)

tTOledO NeWs-Bee.)
Here is another Of DR.. Latson's
Health Talks, This time it's about
drugs. He says people believe too
much in drugs. Likely, he's right
The reason we have asked him for
these editorials is because he Is an
authority In his line. Read what he
'"In the first place. what Is drug?
A drug is an artificial substance
which can produce some change in
the functions OF the body, For In
stance, long course of over-feeding,
lack OF water drinking, insufficient
exercise, had air and so forth has
led TO an attack OF neuralgia. An In
competent doctor Is consulted, and he
prescribes a drug produced from coal
tar, called phenacetin. This drug, py
affecting the nerves and the circula-
tion, has the result Of stopping the
pain.
But the femented mass Of undi-
and intestines, the poisonous matter
produced by II with which the blood
is loaded dOwn-these are not affected
In the least. And so in little while
the neuralgia returns Oh, well, the
same medicine gives relief. But
meantime the actual underlying con-
dition grows worse; and in time is
likely 10 eliminate In some grave, II
not fatal disorder.
Another manner in which drugs
act is illustrated in the operation
Of the saline cathar,ics, such as Ro-
chelle salts and many similar sub
stances. II we take with our food
too much salt, the result, as every
body knows, is dryness OF the
mouth, which is relieved only by copi-
ous drinking Of water.
Now Rochelle salt acts in the same
way on the intestines. One cause OF
constipation is dryness OF the intes-
tlnal contents. Rochelle salt makes
the intestine thirsty, drawing to II a |
large quantity OF water. The mass OF |
hardened matter is moistened and the |
constipation is relieved. And how
does the intestine get this water? BY |
taking II out OF the blood This
leaves the general system dryer than
ever. The result is worse constipa-
tion than. before. And the more
eathartics Of this class you take the
worse the trouble gets.
Then about cough mixtures"
They are often effective in stopping
the cough; : but If You take enough
they are occasionally likely to stop
the life A cough is simply an effort
Of the system TO eject some foreign
matter lodged in the upper air tubes.
The cough medicine merely par
alyzes the nerves. so that the victim
cannot fcei the foreign matter So
he docs not cough. the nndislodged
matter aocumulates. and the last
state OF that man is worse than his

shall find that the rate OF freight
charge by these vessels is excessive
and unreasonable, in which case con-
tracts shall be made under the Law
as II now exists"
The bureau OF navigation apparently
decided that THE law as Il now exists
was the first section quoted prohibit
ing vessels OF foreign register from en-.
gaging In the coastwise trade or Uni
ted States and that foreign vessels
could be employed only In carrying
supplies from a foreign port to an
American part, or from an American
port to a foreign port"
The opinion which is understood [,
have been obtained after the bureau
OF navigation had decided that the
proposed plan of letting contracts to
foreign vessels TO carry the coal Is
said to have taken the ground that
the law as II now exists was an old
general act providing that contracts
for supplies could be let to the lowest
bidder without specifying that for
eign vessels should not be employed
In carrying such supplies from one
American port to another In throw
ing open the competition for carrying
supplies to vessels OF foreign register
the navy department is proceeding
under the law which gives the presl-
dent the right TO employ vessels other
than those OF the United States when
he finds that the rates OF freight
charges OF American vessels "the ex-
oessiye and unreasonable
FOREIGN VESSELS CHEAPER.
1t is claimed by department officials
that in some instances they can have
coal carried and delivered by foreign
vessels at as much as $1.75 ton less
than the rates that can be obtained
with the use of American vessels only.
The preference is, therefore, TO be Civ
en- to foreign vessels If their bids are
lower than those of American vessels.
II Is claimed also at the navy depart.
ment that there are not enough Ameri.
can golfers to do the work of carrying
all the coal that will be required. This
is met by the assertion that there are
enough American colliers 10 carry coal
between the American ports Of tue
fleets itinerary and that American ves-
sells could do the major portion Of the
entire work by starting Immediately
to carry out the required contracts,
thus enabling them to make several
trips before the completion Of tho
fleets long voyage, but whether or not
there are enough American colliers to
do the work, the coastwise laws ara
