Locate the Blame.
While the War Investigating Comm is -
Bion is hard at work to locate the cases of
delinquency in Lhe commissary, medical
und transportation 'bureaus of the army
during the Hlsj/ano—American conflict, a
flagrant case bobs up from Santiago de
Cuba.
General Wood, military governor of that
department is a man of varied capacity.
Whenever there is work to do he does it
well. Just before the transport ship Vic
tor was to have sailed for New York, hav
ing on board a number of sick officers and
men, General Wood visited her.
Amazement trod upon the heels of hie
visit. Whether the “'Fighting Doctor” ut
tered any unprintable language <the dis
patch does not nay. But his visit prevent
ed another horror. The Victor did not
have on board a grain of quinine, a lemon,
a piece of Ice or a single pound of suitable
supplies.
The ship was detained and in four hours
General Wood had remedied the derelic
tions of others.
(Now here in a case for the war depart
ment to promptly and thoroughly investi
gate.
It will not do to threaten General Wood
with discipline.
He is not la mendacious correspondent.
He Is not a munltous officer.
He docs not merit conspiracy against
him to drive him out of the army.
Because he witnessed culpability and
corrected it, he does not deserve criticism.
And let it be known to all the war de
partments that exist or that shall ever ex
ist. ti.ait, no mutter how much General
Wood may lie censured for making public
this instance of criminal negligence, the
Hick heroes on board the transport will
bless his .name while they have (breath to
utter a blessing.
I
As to Advertising.
(Im<k advertising pay’ is a question of
ten asked, and a correct answer is of in
tercct alike to merchant and (publisher.
There are a nun ber of merchants, espe
cially if they have been in business for
a series of years, who claim that they
tire too well known to need the aid of a
newspaper.
The late A. T. Stewart, the merchant
prince of New York, was pretty generally
known, and yet he continued a very ex
tensive system of 'advertising up to the
•lay of 'his death, paying an almost fabu
lous purn in the aggregate during the
year, and iwas often heard to declare that
he owed his success mainly to the news
papers He was the author of that saying
that the duller the times the more persis
tent the merchant should be in exploiting
l>is wares, as he would thus gain a great
advantage over his less enterprising ri
yals.
John Wanamaker.s success has been an
even more striking evidence of the profit
of advertising. He started business on a
limited scale in Philadelphia, and chiefly,
ho confesses, 'through the instrumentality
of newspapers, has 'become the leading
merchant of the Union. His 'business
reached such gigantic proportions that he
established large branches in New York
und (Paris. A short time ago he paid to
the Youth's Comi»anlon $5,000 for one page
for a single Insertion. 'He pays annually
more than SIOO,OOO for advertising and has
nn agent engaged at $5,000 a year whose
duty it is to write his advertisements,
bra
Plant More Corn.
There is a boom In store for corn, and it
Is coming from an unexpected source. Out
of the Jealousies of nations shall come
profit to the farmer.
When 'Mars is in the ascendency Ceres
shall fill her apron with nuggets of gold.
A few days ago the British government
closed a contract with a western distill
ing company for Immediate delivery at
Montreal, Canada, of 125,000 gallons of
distilled spirits. An additional order for
<>o,ooo gallons. <to (be filled in ten days,
came later on. One can acquire an ede
quaite conception of the stupendous size
of these two orders when it is remembered
that the first order alone amounted to
nearly 3.000 barrels, requiring over sixty
cars for its transportation.
The spirits, ordered in such immense
quantities. are utilized in the manufacture
of smokeless powder.
The critical condition of affairs In Eu
rope today is the cause of the extensive
war preparations of England. The British
Admiralty, profiting by our dereliction in
the conflict iwith Spain, 'has resolved to see
to it that there shall be no lack of smoke
less powder. This explosive is destined
to be used exclusively henceforth in civil
ized warfare. The distilled spirits, which
play a prominent part in <the manufacture
of smokeless powder, are made from corn.
Hence, the boom for the American farm
er. Every time a shot Is fired —whether
from the rifle of tan infantryman of the
13-ineh gun of a battle ship—it means
more demand and a higher price for the
yellow cereal.
The Apple Crop.
The apple crop of the United States for
1898 is the smallest ever known. Concern
ing the peculiar conditions which have
brought about this result, the Orange Judd
'Farmer says:
“The apple crop of the United States is
smaller than it has been since reliable sta
tistics have been collected. The total sup
ply from the 1898 crop of the United States
Is 27.200.000 barrels, compared with some
thing over 40,000,000 barrels last year, and
70,000,000 in the record-breaking crop of
1896. The failure is widespread, reaching
from the Pacific Coast to Maine, and in
none of the states does the output approach
an average. In the great apple states of
the West the crop is almost an absolute
failure, although the situation in Michigan
is better than elsewhere, having about
two-thirds of the bumper crop of 1896.
New York has only about one-fifth of a
full crop. The failure is attributed to the
fact that during the blooming season there
was excessive rainfall, which washed out
the pollen and prevented proper fertiliza
tion by insects, while a cold wave added
to the injury, and subsequently moist,
humid weather was very favorable to the
development of fungus diseases. The crop
of Europe is reported below the normal.’’
(
It takes the British to puzzle the rest of
the world with queer and quaint ceremo
nies. General Kitchener was given the
freedom of the city of London last Friday,
but before receiving the keys, the General
had to be “admitted to the freedom of the
fish-mongers’ company.” This was prob
ably done to make it jpssible for the wel
coming chorus to practice the scale.
Mr. James Boyle, United States consul
at Liverpool, writes .that the Liverpool
cotton buyers are discriminating against
American cotton, on the ground that it is
imperfectly packed and, therefore, slightly
damaged. He further states that the great
growth of the Egyptian cotton trade makes
it necessary for the American growers to
use the utmost care if they hope to retain
(heir English trade. j
A New Tongue.
There is a new language born to the
world. It is ready made and christened
"Clarison.” Constructed from the Romance
tongues—ltalian, French, Spanish and Por- I
tuguese—it* author claims that it can be i
completely mastered in twenty days.
If the creator of this new medium of
thought-communication has a meritorious
product, he should receive encouragement.
The necessity for a world-language (at
least for commercial purposes and omit
ting diplomatic intercourse entirely) has
significantly impressed Itself uopn the
American people in the last few months.
We should be among the first to cull such
a facility as “Clarison.”
The failure of “Volapuk,” however,
minimizes the hope that the lingual infant
shall live and flourish. Probably its cradle
will be its deathbed.

I
Has Been Formed.
By Associated Press.
New York, Nov. 12. —The World says:
■A movement is on foot looking to the
consolidtion of all the each, door and blind
interests of America. The new company
will probably Ibe known as the Consolida
ted Sash, 'Door and Blind Company. The
combination Is backed by English capital.
Men interested in the largest sash, door
and blind factories In t'he United States
met at the Imperial Hotel last night.
There were present representatives of
the Hall-Munson 'Co., of Bay 'Mills, Mich.,

the T. M. Gould Co., of Oshkosh, Wis., the
Big 'Rapids Door and Blind Co., the W. B.
Mershau Co., of Saginaw, 'Mich., 'and other
large factories along the .Mississippi river.
At this meeting the preliminary plans and
details of the new company were discuss
ed. It is understood 'that each company
coming into the trust will receive its pro
rata share of the capital stock of the
company, which will be $12,000,000.
IH. S. (Peek, formerly Chicago, but now
of Waterbury, Conn, is at the head of the
new combination las the representative of
$10,000,000. He said:
“The new company will ,be capitalized
at $12,000,000. iWe expect to control ‘the
sash, door and blind industry of the
United Stlates. The men who are furnish
ing this enormous capital see much money
in an investment of this character and
iwill >be liberal in 'their dealings with the
'manufacturers who are expected to come
into the combine.
“The combine has been forming for the
last ten months and is now assuming defi
nite shape. The meeting tonight was for
the purpose of discussing the preliminary
detiaile. Another meeting will soon be
held, when the articles of agreement will
be signed and the combine fully organiz
ed.
It is said that there is at present in
vested in this country $70,000,000 in the
sash, door and blind business. In the fac
tories operated by this capital there are
48,000 employes, who are paid total yearly
wages of $30,000,000, while the value of the
output of these factories is estimated at
$96,000,000 yearly.

Absolutely Pure
Gladstone’* Memory,
Nr. Gladstone had such a good memory
himself that he was inclined to be im
patient with those who had not. At a din
ner in London a few years ago he was
sketching, to the delight of the company,
a stirring scene in the house of commons
in the early forties. Lord Granville was
a guest at the dinner and was in the com
mons at the time of the events to which
Gladstone referred.
“Did you take part In the division?”
asked Mr. Gladstone of Lord Granville.
“I’m sure I don’t know,” replied Lord
Granville. ‘‘l can’t remember whether I
did or not. ”
“Not remember!” fairly shouted Glad
stone. “Why, it was only 48 years ago.”
Old Ape Pension.
The New Zealand assembly has just
passed an old age pension bill, which ap
plies to all persons over 65 years old. The
pension amounts to but S9O a year, or
about $1.75 a week, and no one who has
ar. income of over $5 a week or property
worth more than $2,700 will be entitled to
It. Twenty years’ residence in the colony
and ten years’ exemplary conduct are
among the other qualifications, the va
grant and the drunkard being thus shim
off.

nj I until she sees her

Thousands of women daily achieve wo
manhood’s supremest joy, only to meetj a
few days or weeks or months later, its
supremest sorrow. This is because so
many babies are born into the world with
the seeds of death already sown in their
little bodies. If a woman would have
healthy, robust children, strong and able
to withstand the usual little illnesses of
childhood, she must “ look before she
leap*.. ’ ’
If a woman will take the proper care of
her health in a womanly way, during the
period of prospective maternity, she may
protect herself against much pain and suf
fering and possible death, and insure the
health of her child. Dr. Pierce’s Favorite
Prescription is the greatest of all medicines
for prospective mothers. It acts directly
on the delicate and important organs that
bear the burdens of maternity and makes
them strong, healthy, vigorous and elastic.
It allays inflammation, heals ulceration,
soothes pain and tones the tortured nerves.
It banishes the usual discomforts of the
expectant period and makes baby’s advent
to this world easy and almost painless. It
insures an ample supply of nourishment.
It is the greatest known nerve tonic and
invigorator for women. All good dealers
sell it. Say “No” and stick to it when
urged to accept a substitute said to be
“just as good as Dr. Pierce’s Favorite
Prescription.”
“ I had miscarried twice and was so weak I
could not stand on my feet,” writes Mrs. Minnie
