Vice-Consul II. NJ. Wolcoti. Of San

corning the necessity OF canvassing
the trade OF the island by districts In
stead of combining all efforts therefor
to Habana:
A writer in the January plumber of
an American trade publication makes
the following statement: Commercial
" speaking, Habana Is the last and
only word in connection with business
in Cuba"
While it IL not thought that the fore.
going statement represents the gen

lief that the trade of the provincial

nor res; secure in the thought that
they have accomplished their mission
in Cuba when they have visited Ha-
bana and established general agencies
there. Statesmen representing Europ'
can firms come to this city and spend
week or more in studying trade
conditions, thoroughly informing them
selves as to local demands and estab
! fishing trade connections.
While 1t Is true that a considerable
| part OF the trade Of Cuba IL controlled
| by Habana Arms. 1t is not, by any
means. true Of all lines. and 1t Is be-
! lieved that much valuable trade Is lost
| to American manufacturers by reason
of the fact that when Habana Is can

slider that a trip over the rest OF the
island Is not worth their while Ac.

ed into this port during 1907 over

which only about per cent came
from the United States. 1t would seem
that more OF this valuable trade
should have been secured by Amert
can manufacturers.
This section of Cuba Is at least keep
ing pace with the rest Of the island
in commercial growth, and American

TREATY. DEFINING RIGHTS
OF ANGLERS ANNOUNCED
New Agreement Between Americans
and Canadians Goes to The Hague
for Adjudication

OTTAWA, Ont, Feb. 20.-The treaty
defining the rights of American fisher
men to fish in Canadian or Newfound-
land waters which now goes to The
Hague for adjudication on disputed
points, has been made public.
In the negotiations the Americans
sought to have the word rights" used,
but under Canadian pressure the word
liberties" was substituted.
The British case holds that Ameri-
cans are subject to certain local re-
strictions in exercising their "liber-
ties.''
The American contention as against
this maintains that any restriction
must be cOncurred in by the United
States. Canada also contends that the
three-mile limit does not enter bays
less than six miles in width. The
Americans claim it follows the shore
line.
A supplementary agreement between
Ambassador Bryce and Secretary Root
provides that the agreement of 1886
for the use of Canso strait and the Bay
of Fundy shall be continued without
prejudice to Canada's claim for ex-
elusive jurisdiction in these waters.

AERATED
WITH PURE
OZON E
That Is Why Puritas Distilled Water Is So
Sparkling and PalatabIe. The Pro-
cess of Aerationa Exceedingly
Interesting

Puritas Distilled Water is aerated
with pure ozone. For years it was
aerated with carefully purified air.
Now pure ozone really condensed
oxygen-is forced into it. The result
is an ideal drinking water.
The aeration of Puritas is the result
of long scientific experiment, finally
brought to practical success.
The air from which the ozone is
secured is purified again and again be-
fore being utilized.
Then a current Of electricity, gener-
ated by an electrical machine, is
passed through the purified air, turn
ing it into ozone. No bacterial life
can exist in ozone-it is absolutely
pure.
The ozone is then forced into the
pure, doubly distilled water-just as
much as the water will take UP.
Puritas is very carefully bottled so
that it will reach you with all it's
wholesome purity intact.
When you buy Puritas you get pure
water, thoroughly aerated, carefully
bottled-the purest, most wholesome
and healthful drinking water obtain
able in California.

WIDE CRUSADE
Results OF Conference in Shanghai
Against Drug Proves Far Reach
ing-Many Nations Aid

SHANGHAI, Feb. 2O.-Reports re-
ceived at Shanghai the last several
days indicate that as result of the in
ternational crusade begun against the
traffic in opium, which crusade was
greatly stimulated by the anti-opium
many small villages near Shanghai and
Hong Kong are daily burning large
stacks of opium pipes and inducing
users of the drug to desist.
China has seldom seen such a reform
wave as that which now is sweeping
over the nation.
The anti-conference at Shanghai,
China, has awakened worldwide in
tereStl and activity in the movement to
stamp out the drug.
The conference was called by PreSi-
dent Roosevelt at the suggestion Of
Bishop G. H. Brent. The countries rep
resented at the conference were the
United States, China, Japan, Siam, Per-
sia, Russia, Germany, France, Great
Britain, Italy Holland and Portugal.
The purpose of the concerted move
ment is to help China and the Philip
pines in their fight on the traffic in the
drug. The most active men in this
sruSade are the Rev. WiIbuh F. Crafts
and the Rev. e. w. Thwing of the in
ternational reform bureau and Bishop
Brent. The opium pipes were first
burned in the streets of Shanghai when
the people become enraged at the preva-
lence of opium smoking during the con-
ference here

POSTAL SAVINGS BILL YET
HAS CHANGE THIS SESSION
After Years of Opposition, Belief Is
Expressed That Measure Will
Be Enacted

WASHINGTON, Feb. 20.-The postal
savings bank bill, after having been
opposed for many years, although it
has been the unfinished business of
the senate, may yet be passed at the
present session.
The unexpected progress which was
made with the appropriation bills yes
terday, it is said, will give Senator
Carter an opportunity again to present
the postal savings bank measure, and
it is said with a number of amend
ments it can be put in shape.
In the short time that remains of
the present session it is not thought
possible to get the bill through the
house, but it is argued that passage
by the senate would be an important
step toward redeeming the promise by
the Republican nationai committee to
enact the legislation.

SWINDLERS IN NEW YORK
GET MONEY BY MACHINE
Ignorant Persons Put Savings Into
Device Supposed to In-

NEW YORK, Feb. 20.-Through an
ir-estigation in the Essex police court
it has been disclosed that a band OF
swindlers have been victimizing ignor-
ant men and women on the East Side
by means of a mysterious machine
which they asserted would increase
money if placed therein.
Joseph Rosenthal, a. tailor, COM
planned that he had placed $500 in the
machine at the suggestion Of Benjamin
Bloom, a fellow tailor, and that after
waiting feverishly for twenty-four
hours, as directed, had opened the con-
trivance to find that it contained only
worthless paper. Bloom was held in
$4,000 bail for trial.
Henry Lampkin of Brooklyn COM
planned he had lost $3.50 in the same
manner, and Inquiry by the police
showed that an Italian had invested
$1,000 in the money breeder and has re-
ceived not cent in return.

BRITISH WAR SECRETARY
OUTLINES ARMY'S FORCES
OVer=the=Sea Strength of Soldiery,
Under Imperial Staff Plan,
Reviewed

LONDON, Feb. 2O.-Speaking at
Newcastle today on the subject of the
proposed imperial general staff for the
army, Secretary for War Haldane gave
q general outline of the strength of the
oversee forces as contemplated under
the imperial scheme.
Canada, he said, could easily raise
five or six territorial divisions; Aus
tralia, five;. New Zealand, one, and
Africa, four or five.
In addition to the fourteen divisions
OF the territorial forces of the United
Kingdom, this would give a total of
thirty divisions for home defense.
With the sixteen divisions of regu-
lars ready for oversee service, it was
thus hoped to attain to an imperial
army of forty-six divisions, equivalent
to twenty army corps.
This was just the strength of the
German army, Mr.. Haldane said, and
no other army in the world had such
a great organization.

The Man Who
Eats Well
And Enjoys Food Lives Life As
He Should and Gets the
Most from 1t

The man who eats is the man who
works, and the man who works is the
man who wins. Tireless workers de-
pend upon a storehouse of vim and
vigor. India is noted for its fasters
and its dreamers, Europe and America
for their eaters and their workers.
In America we have been doing moth
ing but work this past quarter of a cen-
tury. That is why our old men say,
In my days no one had dyspepsia" I"
Of course, all men in those days ate
and worked, now they work and eat.
If eating interferes with business,
men give up eating. This is good logic
for the dollar getter, but poor wisdom
for the man who really wants to live.
Abuse of anything God given results
in punishment, and man is. a pigmy
when it comes to cheating his system.
If you take from the system that
which is intended should remain, or
put into it that which is intended
should be kept out, you are cheating
yourself, and sooner or later pay the
penalty.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are con-
centrated vegetable and fruit essences
which give the system every fluid,
Stimulant and ingredient necessary to
gain the fullest strength from every
thing which goes into the stomach, or
tc keep from the system everything
If you will eat fast and improperly,
if you will drink and eat irregularly
and to excess, then give to nature as
you do SO enough of the essences she
demands to neutralize the bad effects
of your habits.
After a meal take Stuart Dyspepsia
tablet, and the meal won't hurt you or
your stomach.
At midnight dinner take a Stuart
tablet and you will sleep well and get
up without a breath which is filled with
the decay OF the midnight meal
Fortify your stomach like you do
your business. Fortunes when lost can
be regained, but the stomach outraged
stays with you to the finish, and you
know it is there.

lets will do, buy package from any
