Nota del dia

Los ultimos nombramientos
hechos en- Washington y las I'll.
timas resoluciones de la con-
gregacion en- el Executive, de-
muestran plenamente que la
politica colonial no sufre modi-
hcaciones de ningun genero.
prueban que los arbitros de los
destinos coloniales entienden
que es admirable y que debe
continuar por mas tempo en-
Ia 1sla Ell imperio de los nuevos
metOdOS, sin tomar en- cuenta
las protestas de los colonos, nj
hacer Ell mas minimo case de
sus reclamaciones.
Los s1ntOmas son mortales.
Nj en- el amino del Presiden-
te hacen mella las quejas de la
colonia, nj ell primer magistra-
do de la republica hace Ell case
que debiera de las recomenda-
clones que le llegap de la Jsla,

del despotismo dominador de

trOs politicOs, que las continual
das visitas de altos Functional
rios de la politica nacional, trae-
rlan una modification de proce-
d1mlentos, que atenuara. e n
parte, la viOlencia del sistema
que tan hondo desafecto ha lido
laborando entire Ia COlonia Y la
metropoli.
Las circunstanclas en- que los
directories de la polltica nacio-
nal llegaban a la lsla, pareclan

dentes y titles a todos.
~ ST no a que podian venir a
la colonia los hombres que es-
taban recibiendo, constantemen-
te, pruebas inequivocas del dis
gustO ambiente en- la Isla?
Aunque la rapidez conque
desflaban, no era el datO mas
expressive de que hubiesen prac-

HURTS SALE OF
PATENT MEDICINE
Simple Prescription Which Relieves
Nearly Every Person Who
Tries II.

Unless all signs fail. this will prove
hard season for those who are sub.
ject to catarrhal disease.
The coming months will be a har
vest for the doctors aud patent medi.
cine manufacturers unless great care
is taken to dress warm and keep tho
feet dry.
This is the advice of well.known
authority and, should be needed by
all Who arc subject to rheumatism
kidney and bladder troubles and espe
cially catarrh. While the latter Is
considered by most sufferers an In.
durable disease, there are few men or
women, who will fail to experience
great relief from the following simple
home prescription. and if' taken in
time 1t will prevent an attack of ca.
tarrh during the entire season.
Here is the prescription which any
one can mix: Fluid Extract Dandc.
lion. one-half ounce; Compound Kar.
gon. one ounce; Compound Syrup
Sarsaparilla, three ounces. Shake well
in bottle and use in teaspoonful
doses after each meal and again at
bedtime
These are mostly vegetable ingre.
es''N..sN'g ''AN Noh NC ouldlhSu lIOlIl Any
good prescription pharmacy at small
cost
The Compound Kargon in this pre-.
scription acts directly upon the elimi.
native tissues of the kidneys to make
them filter and strain from the blood,
the posons that produce all forms of
catarrhal affections. Relief is often
felt even after the first few doses
and it is seldom that the sufferer ever
experiences return attack within
the year.
This prescription makes splendid
remedy for all forms Of blood disor-
ders and such symptoms as lame
back. bladder Weaknesses and rheu-
matism pains are entirely dispelled.
AS this valuable prescription comes
from thoroughly reliable source it
should be needed by every afflicted
reader.

Quick Action on Coughs and Colds
Valuable Home Made Remedy

oughly and use in tablespoon doses
every four hours"
On inquiring at ono of the leading
drug stores it was found that tho
Concentrated oil of pine comes put up
for medical use only in one way, and
that is. in halfounce bottles. Each
bottle is enclosed in round screw
top case and securely sealed This
protects it from heat and light. Tho
oils sold in bulk as Oil of Pine arc
useless. on account of their impuri
ties they produce nausea and kidney
trouble
There are also several patent medi.
cines put out by chemical firms un.
der similar names but these can be
avoided by making sure to get the
Concentrated" oil OF p,ne in its orig.
inal package, the mixture can then
be made at home by purchasing the
other ingredients and mixing them
in ten ounce bottle. A cold should
never be permitted to linger as nine
tenths of the serious ailments origi-
nate in a cold which at first seemed
trivial. The constitution becomes
weakened by coughs anu cold and any
disease is then liable to set in. In
these days when consumption is so
prevalent it behooyes one to be ex.
tremely careful.

The stately pine trees growing in
the solitude of the Eastern noun.
tains holds the proud distinction OF
yielding to the human race greater
variety and more meritorious medi-
cines than any other plant in the
vegetable world.
Its tinctures, oils and extracts are
in constant use by the doctors all
over the world and highly priced on
account of their certain action on the
mucous membranes and their great
healing qualities.
d. A renowned Philadelphia doctor has
recently given to his fellow physl,
clans n new and probably the most
valuable Of pine products. 1t is known
to the profession as Concentrated oil
of pine. In speaking OF this oil q
we'll known local physician declared
it is without an equal for the speedy
relief of acute colds and coughs and
all manner of throat rnti lung trouble
The original formula used and now
generally prescribed is as follows:
i,"One-half ounce of Concentrated oil
OF pine: two ounces of glyceripe; half
pint of good pure whiskey; mix thor.

If the practical women of tho world
a who uso family medicines, were
asked which is the most roiia 10 family
medicine in use today, a great majority
of them would reply, without hesita-
ton, Pcruna.
Pernna is especially praised by the
women because they have abundant op.
portunity to note It's prompt effects in

charge OF bigamy. was held for
The grand jury yesterday my Po-
lice Justice Brown. No effort was
made to secure bail and the pris-
oner was committed to Jail to await
The action of the grand jury.
1t seems probable that Mahoney
will plead guilty to the charge
against him AMI throw himsel,
upon the mercy of thei court. The
maximum penalty fore bigamy is
eight years in the ponitentiary. The
prisoner freely confesses his guilt
and, apparently, has no idea .of the
sra,ity of the offence he has CON.
mltted. He simply says his first
wife told him he could marry again

he had moral, IL not legal, right
