through the port of st. John, \. b.
There is heavy traffic in these vege-
tables raised on the American side of
the st. John river and put in barrels

The Cubans contend that the potatoes,
having come from a port that is not

to the benefits Of the preferential tar
if between the United states and
cuba, but Mr.. Guernsey insisted that
the products were clearly within the

Gloucester, Mass, Jan. 12.-Glouces-
ter fishing interests, which constitute
the American interests in the New
Foundland fisheries dispute received
with satisfaction tonight. the news
from Washington that Canadian and
New Foundland commissioners have
agreed to have their governments
change the existing regulations to IA
vor the United States. This decision,
it is believed here, is in accordance
with the spirit of the award OF me
Hague Tribunal which has been re-
garded in Gloucester as a substantial
victory for the Gloucester fishermen.
The fact that the decision will obviate
the necessity of calling a meeting Of
the board of experts provided for by
The Hague award is only of incidental
interest here, as Gloucester considers
itself now on the way to receive from
New Foundland, most of the conces-
sionS wanted.
Principal among the regulations
which Gloucester fishermen desire
changed are those against the use of
purse seins by the Americans and for
bidding fishing on Sunday. Both sub
jects come under the first considered
by The Hague. and have been consid-
cred as favorable to Great Britain.

GRACEFUL AND ATTRACTIVE
WOMEN

If you are thin and want to be
plump; if you have wrinkles in your
face that you are not proud of; If
your skin is sallow or subject to PIN
pies or blackheads take Mona stom-
ach tablets for two weeks and notice
the change.
Nine-tenths of the thin people are
thin because the stomach is not ac-
tive; it is not mixing thoroughly
with the natural digestive juices the
food put into it, and consequently is
not extracting from the food enough
nourishment matter for the blood to
distribute to every part of the body.
If the stomach does not do its work
properly the nourishment in the food
you eat is passed along without Civ
ing to the body any flesh building
elements.
Mona stomach tablets quickly
build up the stomach so that it ex-
tracts from the food all the elements
necessary to form good solid flesh.
If you are thin try a two weeks
treatment OF Mi-o-no stomach tablets
two with each meal will work won

Mona stomach tablets are guar
anteed to cure Indigestion. acute or

abuses that are being carried on in
favor of the few and to the detrfment
of the many, but as for mel am as
happy as schOolboy," he said.
Predicts a Great Future.
I'm not going to tell you what
strides the country has made in the
past half century. 1t isn't necessary.
All any one has to do is to look at the
population, immigration and produc-
ton statistics to see that we have pro-
crossed as no other nation IN the
world has ever progressed in anything
like the same time. AS for the future,
l believe6progress will be just as great
It is only a matter of time before we
shall have a population of 5O0,O00OO0
people living in this land.
This country is good enough for me,
and I pay little heed to the men who
would belittle the progress that we
have made. The Democrats hold that
we Republicans have not kept things
moving in the right direction during
the time we have been in power. Let
them compare the progress that has
been made while we have been in pow
er and while they were in control.
They'll admit that we have done pref
ty well on the whole. OF course mis-
takes have been made, but outlining
the course of a nation is no child's
work Men will err in spite Of their
best Intentions
when people talk to me about the
hardships of the world today it al
most makes me laugh. If they had to
go through what / had to go through
and what every other man and woman
endured half a century ago they would
not talk such nonsense. Why. life is
one continual round of pleasure today
compared with the days when we had
no railroads or even decent roadways
and a thousand and one other improve
ments that have been brought about
in the past half century.
BsIks at the Millennium.
EVERY class of people in this coun-
try is better off and happier today than
in the so called good old days do
not mean that the rich, the middle
class or the upper class alone are bet
ter Off and happier, but l mean that
the working man and woman, the pro-
fessional man and all other classes are
better Off and far happier than they
could have dreamed of being fifty
years ago.
THE trouble is that people are al
ways looking for the millennium, and
that is the one thing that I do not
want TO live to see. I would not like
to be in this land when that SO called
happy age came about. The human
animal isn't worth a D. unless he
has to fight against adversfty-it brings
out the real manly qualities And
when that age of content and idle
ness comes to pass this world will be
no place for Uncle Joe Cannon"
