Rheumatism q Old Ale.

Mrs. Caroline Trunk, 1705 Jefferson
Ave., Peoria, ILL.,, writes;
II had a very painful trouble for six
years, consisting of Eheamaffsm in thP
back and in the thigh. I used . great
deal of medicine, but 1t did not help me.
Then I used DR.. Hartman's Peruna,
and two bottles of this entirely freed
me of the rheumatism. wish to keep
both Peruna and Manalin always in the
house. This is the best medicine that
can recommend any one to take for
rheumatism"

first of last February. I took it as
nearly as possible according to direc-

Washington, Jan. 29.-Secretary Taft
has received the following cablegram
from Coy. Swcttenham, dated King
:,tOn, Jamaica
Most grateful thanks for supply OF
tents just arrived from Cuba in charge
of Capt. Eattle. L. S. a. Service most
highly Appreciated
The tents are those forwarded from
Santiago upon the urgent request made
to provisional Governor Magoon by the
acting British minister at Havana.
London, Jan. 30.-There is very little
comment in the newspapers this morn
ing on the apology made by Gov. SWEET
tenham Of Jamaica, for his letter to
Rear Admiral Davis. The affair is
without great interest to the British
public because. as far as the two gov
ernEents are concerned, no diplomatic
difficulty ever has existed and the per-
3onal side of the matter has become Of
secondary Importance. Great satisfac-
ton is felt, nevertheless. that Gov.
SwettenhaTn has taken the only digni-
fed and honorable course by with
drawing the offensive letter, adm thus
closing the incident from the personal
side as we'll. That Gov. Swettenham
has apologized will especially please his
tended him their full sympathy on &C
count of the difficulty Of the position
in which he found himself.

Our Share OF Egypt'a ,rrndc.
But frst let rae tell you what the
trade of Egypt amounts to- We are
spending much In pushing our trade
with China and for a generation or
more our papers have been full OF the
iChincse possibilities. As 1t Is NOW. he
foreign trade OF Egypt liz more than
lonc-thtrd as large us that OF all China.
TT Is over s2o0Ooh.eoD year and of
l.this sl0O,ooOnoo Is brought In from
abroad. As 10 the exports. we take
iall and moro than our share. But of
the imports we get hardly s,uell. In
other words, I'VE buy OF f,gypt from

ther less than ont-tentll that amount.
We do not sell her / per cent. OF all
that she buys, and we take from to
10 per cent. OF Ill that she sells.
/ Moreover. our tourists annually go up
the Milo by the Thousands. and they
leave In Egypt every winter as much
as s4oto.o0D. Sixty per cent OF all
the profits of the Egyptian hotels come
from Americans. and we ought to get
our share of the trade in return.
What Uncle sam Should Do.
It would seem that Uncle Sam ought
to wake up and put his mems on the
ground. He ought to establish more
extensive consular service, ought to
build a legation building at Cairo, and
urge some of his financial nephews to
open bank or so here, with branches
in New York and in other American
ports. He should send out q commits
sion to study this trade, and should
establish exposition warehouses in
Alexandria and Cairo. filled with the
goods we make so we'll but which the
Egyptians are now buying from Eng
land and other countries of Europe
AS it is now. our consul-general to
Cairo Is acting as our diplomatic agent
as we'll. The duties should be divided,
and man who will do nothing else
but push American trade should be
added to the legation force. AS this
country nonlinnlly belongs to Turkey,
we cannot send minister plenipoten-
tiary to it, but our consul-genera is
given practically the same powers as
an ambassador has elsewhere, and this
part Of his work is enough for one
man to handle.
Our Diplomatic Agent Mt Cairo.
Our present diplomatic agent at
Cairo. who bears the title OF consul
general. is Lewis NJ Iddings, who was
formerly one of the editors of the
New York Times. and later on served
as first secretary to our embassy at
Rome. EIe is by training and cxpe-
rience more q diplomat than con-
sular officer, although he unders tands
the United States we'll and has had
Journalistic training before he took ur
diplomacy. AS diplomatic agent he is
the guardian of7the rights of all Amer
leans who come to Egypt. None OF
them can be arrested without his con-
sent. and any such arrest must be
made by one OF his own policemen
| who are known as the consular ca
vases. The cavasses attend the con.

money and arc buying more foreign
i goods than ever before. For ages they
& have been so ground down by taxa
ton that the skins OF their stoniac1s
have Tapped against their back bones.
To-day they are fat, and the said skins
are stretched like drum heads. They
are eating foreign food, buying for
eign clothing and spending money on
foreign knicknacks. The British gov.
eminent, which now rules them, has
cut down the taxes and Is giving them,

so situated that they can be easily

What Egypt Sells.
In order to understand this trade.
The Nile valley Is almost altogether
agricultural. Egypt has 100000
people, and two thirds Of all those
over ten years OF age are engaged In
farming The great money crops are
cotton and sugar, and just now cotton
forms nine tenths of the exports.
There is so much money In cotton
that those who raise 1t do as our
planters do when cotton is high They
put all their land into that crop and
buy their meat and corn out OF the
proceeds. The Egyptian cotton sells
for much more than ours. 1t is of
peculiar STAPLE. and is SO valuable for
mixing with other cottons that we Of
ten buy from seven to ten million
dollars worth of 1t ourselves. In 1906
the crop sold for $4,000 10000. and the
bulk of this went to England. AS 1t
is now. Russia is annually taking five
or ten million dollars worth. France
five or six million dollars. and Ger
many about the same amount Of Egyp-
tian cotton. The cotton seed is also
sold, most of 1t going to Great Brit
ain and. France.
Indeed. cotton is fast crowding out
sugar, and the sugar sales are not as

Of opinion as to the great value Of the
