Offices: 412 Cherry Street. 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. State of Ohio, City of Toledo, Lucas County. Frank J. Cheney makes oath that he is the senior partner of the firm of F. J.

(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.

CASTOR IA For Infants and Children. The Kind You Have Always Bought Bears the Signature of i . From New Zealand. Reefton, New Zealand, November 23, 1896.—1 am very pleased to state that since I took the agency of Chamberlain's . medicines the sale has been very large, more especially of the Cough Remedy.

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. ,y\ When a baby smiles in its sleep '-MJ it is the mother’s fond belief that an angel is kiss in K it- Nowoman attains the su- P renie joy of wo ff manhood until reL'' knows the V caressing t o<u c h Yy 'of a first-born’s K - fingers. No wo- ** ■ Sc man knows the supreme sorrow _s - z ’* of womanhood nj I until she sees her Ibaby in the cold embrace of death. 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 Smith, P. M., of Lowell, Lane Co., Oregon. “I took two bottles of Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Pre scription and now have a healthy baby and am stronger than for twelve years.” The quick constipation - cure Doctor Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets.
