The Hawaiian annexation treaty
has been handed to the senate by
the committee on foreign affairs,
with the recommendation that it be
ratified.
A part of the treaty reads like
this:
Tn Article One the government
of Hawaii cedes from the date of
the exchange of the ratifications, to
the United States absolutely all
rights of sovereignity of whatsoever
kind in and over the Hawaiian
.Islands and their dependencies,
such islands henceforth to be an
integral part of the territory of the
United States.
Article 4 prohibits further immi
gration of Chinese laborers into the
Hawaiian islands until Congress
shall otherwise provide. Further
more, Chinese persons of the class
es now or hereafter excluded by
law from entering the United States
will not be permitted to come from
the Hawaiian islands to other parts
of the United States.
Article 5. The United States as
sumes the existing public debt of
the Hawaiian islands with the pro
viso that such liability shall in no
case exceed $3,2o0,000.
Articlo Six agrees to pay ex
Queen Liliuokalani an annual pen
sion of $20,000 during her life, and
to Princess Kaiulani a lump sum
of $150,000, provided they in good
faith submit to the authority of the
United States Government and the
local government of the islands.
How It Became Popular.
When people find an article much
superior to anything of the kind they
have ever before used, they are almost
sure to toll their friends about it, and
especially if they know of some friends
needing such an article. Dealers also
soon learn the true value of their goods,
and when they have an articlo of an
unusual merit they will almost invari
ably mention the faet to their custom
ers. This accounts in a great measure
for the largo sale on Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy. . Her is an instance.
W. L. Noedham, a prominent citizen
and business man of Orrsburg, Mo.,
has been selling Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy for several years anl recom
mends it to his customers, because in
his experience it has proven to be the
best for colds, aroup and whooping
cough. He says it is the most popular
medicine that he handles, and gives
the best satisfaction. 50 cent bottles

stated that the company will ask the

John Phillip Quiun, a reformed
gambler is making a crusade
against gambling in the east. He
has his faro bank, roulette wheel
and cards with him. Instead of
giving advice he demonstrates v
practically what frauds all gamb
ling games are. He will take any
pack of cards presented and read
them as fast from their backs as
one can from their face. He shows
up the vest "hold out" the complete
control of the little $300 faro bank,
bringing out any color he pleases;
the absolute control of the roulette
wheel. He remarks that in all his
twenty-five years of experience he
has never opened a gambling house
in any city, that he did not haw
the protection of a police, and when
they came around for their money
the question was never asked,
"Where did it come from?" but
only, "How much have you for us?"
Pneumonia,
At no time in the history of thecoun- -try
has pneumonia been so prevalent
as during the winter months of the
last two years. Iu times past a com
mon cold was not considered at all se
rious, but of late years the great ten
dency ot colds to result in pneumouia
has made poople apprehensive. The
trouble is that colas are not always
properly treated. No preparation con
taining opium, wild cherry or chloro
form should be used, as they have a
tendency to dry up & cold, whereas it
should be looseuea and the lungs re
lieved. It has been observed that -when
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is
used the cold never results in pneumo
nia. The reason is that this remedy
stimulates the mucous membrane which
lines the throat and lungs, to a healthy
action, caus;s a free expectoration,
throwing off the poisouess matter, and
counteracts any tendency toward pneu
monia. For sale by G. H. Haskins,
