and everyone needs it at all times of the
year. Malaria is always about, and the
only preventive and relief is to keep the
Liver active. You must help the Liver a bit,
and the best helper is the Old Friend, SlM
MONS LIVER REGULATOR, the RED Z.
« Mr. C.' Himrod, of Lancaster, Ohio,
says: “SIMMONS LIVER REGULATOR
broke a case of Malarial Fever of three
years’ standing for me, and less than
one bottle did the business. 1 shall use
lt when in need, and recommend it.”
Be sure that you get it. Always look for
the RED Z on the package. And don’t
forget the word'REGULATOR. It is SlM
MONS L 1 VER REGULATOR, and there is
only one, and every one who takes it is
Sure to be^benefited. THE BENEFIT IS

Biliousness asd Sick Headache; both are
caused by a sluggish Liver.

Judged by it* own history the
.
attitude of Great Britain, under
premiership of Lord Salisbury, in
refusing to arbitrate the Venezuel
an boundary dispute is deserving ol
severe co&demnation. Not since
■. . ,
the Schomburg line was drawn and
receded from have such extravagant
and positive claims to territory been
made until Salisbury assumed con
troL It was then that the discov¬
ery was made that Great Britain s
title to the disputed territory was
so clear that there was no ground
for arbitration. When Lord Gran¬
ville was the head of the foreign
office, in 1883, Great Britain’s title
evidently was not so clear, for a
treaty was then drawn and agreed
to with Gen. Guzman Blanco, the
Venezuelan envoy extraordinary,
according to which the disputed
points were to be submitted to ar¬
bitration, the result to be bind¬
ing on both governments. Lord
h who entered office
Salisbury, after the overthrow of
shortly on
the Gladstone ministry', ^ promptly of
re9C rescinded the arbitration clause

Sjo mmistry so full of assur

enable riie United States to deter¬
mine for itself whether Great Brit¬
ain’s title is clear and indefensible
—a point which this nation has not
aasumed to pass upon heretofore.
When that commission reports it
can be l decided whether Great
Britain’s operations are such as to
bring the dispute within the mean¬
ing of the .Monroe doctrine as m
tended to be asserted and main¬
tained by the people of the United
States. This action is made neces¬
sary by Sali&bEfry’« refusal to arbi¬
trate. ’ All this government desires
is the maintenance of the Monroe
doctrine, It does not con ider it
self concerned and will not be dis
posed to quarrel over any lesser is
SU a than that.
l t j s unfortunate that British sub
j e cts should bold so strongly to the
opinion that the message, of the
resident, is merely a play for pop
ular favor preceding an election,
; t j s ; u be regretted that our pe¬
litical history in the past gives The.poJ:?- some

too much the position taken so forci
