Rheumatism Yields Quickly to SIoan's.
 You can't prevent an attack of rheu- matism from coming on, but you can stop it almost immediately. Sloan's Eminent gently applied to the sore joint or muscle penetrates in a few minutes to the unframed spot that causes the pain. It soothes the hot, tender, swollen feeling, and in a very short time brings a relief that is al- most unbelievable until you experience 1t. Get bottle of Sloan's Eminent for 25c of any druggist and have 1t in the house-against colds, sore and swollen joints, lumbago. sciatica and like ailments. Your money back if not satisfied, but it does give almost in- stant relief.

Keep the Children
 Bright and Happy

Happy youngsters must be healthy. The digestive organs of children get out of order as readily as do those of their elders, and the result is equally distressing. When the bowels are clogged with an accumula- ton of refuse from the stomach the child naturally becomes cross and fretful from the discomfort, and Is often punished for tenn per when medical attention is really what Is needed.
 The next time your child Is cross and unhappy, without ap- parent reason, try giving 1t a mild laxative. pr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is a mild, pleas ant tasting combination of sim pie laxative herbs with pepsin, and is especially recommended for children because of its free dom from all opiate or narcotic drugs and it's gentle action. It Is sold in drug stores every where. A free trial bottle can be obtained by writing to Dr. W. B. Caldwell, 452 Washington St, Monticello, Ills.

The highway that extends direct from Watch Hill to High street, the longest that extends through the com pact part of the town of Westerly, has five distinct sub divisions, as to name, and the reason is difficult to explain. Starting from Watch Hill, the first section is known as Watch Hill road; :; then comes Beach street, then Elm as far as Broad street, then about 100 feet of Granite street, and then it is Grove avenue on to High street. What is termed the fashionable section is known as Elm street, the part that connects with Beach street at one end and Granite street at the other. There may come 8 time, some day, when there will be readjustment of street names in Westerly for other than post office purposes.

 The many beautiful flowers in Dr. c. O.. Maine's greenhouse are attracting a great deal of attention. The doctor has among his fine collection plants from the Pacific coast, such as the wild pink of California, the genuine life plant from Bermuda; this plant lives upon the wall of the hothouse without soil or water, and as long as the plant does not touch the ground it will grow. The sea onion, the orange trees and the beautiful pink roses, besides many geraniuIns and native plants, are in bloom.
 The baby alligator which the doctor brought from the south has lived all winter without food and has now just begun to take food, a few drops of meat blood being given him daily. He has already grown several inches. Dr. Maine visited the alligator and ostrich farms and procured this small one for his aquarium, which is located in his greenhouse.

4 COMPARISON Of COST

Some Figures are Given.

st. Louis. Jan. 22.-To show that
ono or the almost insuperable OBJ
stacles to the restoration OF the
American Merchant marine Is the
extreme difference in building and op.
Grating cost between foreign and
American vessels. Welding Ring OF
New York presented some interesting
figures at todays session OF the
National Foreign Trade convention.
He said these figures were furnished
by one OF the largest American ship
owning firms:
OH0 steamer built III England
tl3I3 dcadwcight capacity $3.50
tons, cost s33l.721.1l.
'Gne steamer built In England
n9I2) dcadweight capacity, $3.50
tons. cost 1892. .431.75.
One steamer built in Philadelphia
tl91U deadweight capacity $3.50
tons. cost s680.371.39.
"One steamer built in Philadelphia
N9l0 readweight capacity $3.50 tons
cost $6SO.501.95.
These steamers are OF practical
ly similar character" said Mr. Ring,
intended for the same trade and 1t
will be noted that the dreadweight
capacity of tho English steamers is
400 tons greater than that OF tht
American, while the cost of the
American is more than double that
of the English. These may possibly
be extreme differences In cost. but
they arc actual, and other owners
have experienced the same conditions
These same owners recently transfer
red one OF, their. British steamers to
the United States flag, with the fol:
lowing results: - '-
Wages under the. United States
flag increased $4O25O per month.
Additional cost for extra inspection
$50 per month.
Additional cost for. food and sup.
plies $50 per month.
To the speaker there appeared but
one practical remedy. :Change our
navigation laws" he said, "and permit
us to buy where we huy cheapest and
operate in competition. with other
nations"
Mr.. Ring opposed the bill now be.
fore congress to authorize the pur-
chase of foreign steamers and the
placing OF such vessels under the
American flag. on the ground that II
the government entered the shipping
trade in competition with private
capital. 1t would have to invest very
many millions. the result would be
unfair competition with those now In
the shipping trade and such govern
nient participation would prevent in.
vestment OF private capital In such
trade as no individual could compete
successfully with the: government.
