successes. He has expressed pride
that he was able to help this govern-

for this, according to the person who
makes the information available to
the Evening Sun, is that the country
has come to look at things through
English eyes.
THE ambassador is also reported
to have said that he and all his diplo-

A PERSONAL LETTER
From a Belfast Man in the West.

FRIEND PILSBURY: Perhaps few lines
about my western trip from Chicago
may be of interest to you. l left Chi
cago by the Burlington route May 4th
at II p. m. for Denver, Colo, and ar.
rived at a. M, May 9Th. My son Har-
old met me at the train and l received
a very warm welcome from both Harold
and his wife. They live on Gilpin street
about four miles from the business sec
ton of the city, and the peaks of the
Rocky Mountains are in full view from
their home.
My son is very nicely located in bust
ness as manager of the bond department
of the International Trust Co. which is
very large and wealthy banking institu.
ton. He went there from Chicago last
October to form the department and has
made great success of his department.
The principal banks and bond houses
are located on 18th street and it is to
Denver what Wall street is to New York.
Denver is very nice, we'll built city and
has population of ESQ., 900 people. There
is great deal of wealth there and in
Colorado and a great deal of money is
constantly seeking investment. While
there l went up Lookout Mountain. The
highest peak Is 5000 feet above sea
level and the view is magnificent. There
is very nice carriage road to the top
and it winds back and forth in a serpen-
tine fashion. 1t starts from the old City
OF Golden, which is about twenty-five
miles from Denver.
lett Denver at 9. as p. m. May 18th
for Curtis, Nebraska, to visit my brother
Charles and got there Saturday noon.
His ranch is about IL miles from Curtis
and is well stocked with cattle, horses
and hogs. He sold some of his horses
to go into the war zone and a great
many have gone from that vicinity.
Brother Charles went to Curtis in 1886,
before any house was built in what is
now the village. 1t has now popula-
ton Of over 1000 people and is we'll
built town with many fine stores and
residences. Among the nice buildings
is the State Agricultural College, which
has an attendance of about $50 young
men and women who are to be the fu-
lure farmers and farmers wives OF the
State. The citizens of Curtis made the
college present of GAO acres of land
and it is we'll stocked with cattle, horses,
etc.
Brother Charles is among the oldest
subscribers of The Journal. He began
when he went away from Belfast in 1874.
l left Curtis at noon May 18th for Chi
cago, where l shall be due tomorrow at
9 p. M, and if l carry out my plans
shall be in Belfast Wednesday morning,
May 26th.
With kind regards,
Very Truly Yours,
EDWARD SIBLEY.

SHE COULD NOT EAT
Substantial Foods Until She Took
Hoods Sarsaparilla.

Sunapee, N. H, Feb. 15.1915-A res
ident of this town, Mrs S. j. Thurber,
makes this statement as to the great
medicinal merit of Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla.: Il believe it my duty to state
that some years ago 1 took Hoods
Sarsaparilla for ulcers of the stomach,
from which 1 had suffered for a long
time and derived great benefit. When
afflicted I had to live on milk and wa
ter and even these things distressed
me greatly, but after taking Hoods
Sarsaparilla l could eat what I chose
without distress.
81 cannot say too much in favor of
Hoods Sarsaparilla. 1 certainly am
as fond of it as in years gone by.
If l miss taking it during a spring, I
always go to it before the summer is
over. I have not had one of those
horrid ulcers of the stomach since I
first took it, % years ago. My whole
family take it every year"
Hoods Sarsaparilla contains, be-
sides sarsaparilla, those great alter
atives, stillingia and blue flag; those
great anti bilious and liver remedies,
mandrake and dandelion; those great
kidney remedies, iva ursi, juniper
berries and pipsissewa those great
stomach tonics, gentian root and wild
cherry bark; and other good remedies,
Just what physicians prescribe.
