American Occupation for Cuba.

Whether the occupation of Cuba by
the United States forces will prove
eventually good thing or not, it is a
very costly luxury The actual cost for
using a portion of our army as insular
police is at least $5,000,000 a year be-
sides other expenses which have to be
met out of the Cuban treasury. Wheth-
er you have been sufferer from all
ments of the stomach, liver or bowels
for years or only shor, time, we be-
lieve that Hostetters Stomach Bitters
will greatly benefit you. At least our
past experience has proven beyond all
doubt that it is very superior medi-
cine for such cases, and if cure is
possible the Bitters will make it. 1t

PURE FOOD LAW MISUSED
United States Does Fot Guarantee Quality
Of Any Product,
MANUFACTURERS DscEmNG THE PUBLIC
Secretary Wilson Says He VIII
Take Drastic Action 10 stop
This Form of Misrep-
resentatiOn.

WASHINGTON, April 16.-'If this out
Tageous Misrepresentation does not cease
the department will publish a list bearing
the names Of manufacturers indulging in
this campaign Of deception"
Secretary Wilson Of the Department Of
Agriculture made this remark in an au-
thorized statement today regarding the
fact that there had come to his knowledge
Information that a number of manufacture
ers Of foods and drugs were freely adver-
Using that the United States government
was guaranteeing their products.
The secretary said that the serial num-
bers authorized by the pure food and drug
act to be placed on food and drug products
were being used by these manufacturers
for this purpose. THE serial number
said Secretary Wilson, rs assigned TO fix
the responsibility where 1t belongs-upon
The manufacturers-and to protect innocent
dealers. who have right under the law
10 rely upon his guarantee. It is the guar
antee of the manufacturer, not of the gov
eminent"
The secretary declared every effort would
be made by the department to put a stop
to these statements. IT will do a little ad-
vertising myself" he said, "in behalf Of
the people. l am growing tired OF seeing
these untruthful statements on the adver-
Using pages Of the magazines the walls
II the New York subway and the advertis-
Ing space OF the street cars OF the princi-
pal cities. Manufacturers who will de-
ceive the public about the guaranty will
lie about the quality OF their prOducts"
He added that the law would be admins
tered fairly and that no honest manufac-
turer need fear that the department will
take snap Judgment" on him or harass
him In any way.

Athletic Troubles settled.

MITCHELL, s. D., April l6.-The long
breach between the Athletic association of
the State University of Vermilion and the
South Dakota Inter-C Collegiate Athletic as
ISOLATION has been healed over at last
Some six or seven years ago the athletic
association Of Vermilion's college withdrew
from the state association when certain
charges were made against some of the
athletes on the ground of professionalism.
The charges, It is understood, were OF such
a character as TO 1use trouble in the as
sociation, and VermiliOn withdrew and has
never participated in any of the events
from that day to this, even retiring from
the oratorical association, In previous
years efforts have been made 70 heal the
breach and Vermilion has been invited to
return, but the State university's athletic
association never saw fit TO attempt the
Overtures until this season. During the
winter meeting of the executive committee
the invitation to Vermilion was renewed.
and a few days ago the college athletic
department took favorable action on the
same and accepted the Invitation to return
to the inter-collegiate association.

Mr.. Cushman no doubt harks back to the
simple life he led in the Dodge county Jail
