"After an Illness of two years, during which time I underwent several surgical operations, I at last began to Improve, but my Improvement was so slow that I be came discouraged. I was very much run down and I did not have any appetite. I did not care to live. One day I met a friend who had taken Hood's Sarsaparllla and who urged me to try it. I consented, and after I had taken a few doses I began to feel better and had a better appetite. I gained from two to three pounds a week and grew stronger every day. I took two or three bottles of Hood's Sarsaparilla, and am as strong as I ever was In my life. Hood's Sarsaparllla has brought me back to health."

Cooley, the well-known civil engineer, after a visit Fast and ooniereuce In new York with repre sentatives of the Maritime Canal Com pany, owner of the concession along the proMed route of the Nicaragua canal, believe the government will construct the great waterway in pref erence to letting the contract to sepa rate corporations. Mr. Uioley says that on this point the complexion of the canal matter has been changed perceptibly since last winter, when he, with a party of engineers, looked over the ground of the enterprise. On being shown a dispatch from Washington Mating that Admiral Walker, of the canal commission, had received a number of reports Indieit- Ing that the cost would tm much less than heretofore estimated, Mr. Cooley presented a list of recent discoveries, which he believes are responsible for Admiral Walker's opinions. The gist of these are: Hlx mile of dredging In the lower end of Luke Nicaragua Non-existence of rock In Bun Juan river to Tom rapids. Good foundations for an Immense dam at Ochoa. Favorable conditions for embuik menls at Hun Francisco basin. New site for a dam at Tambor Gran de. According to the estimate of the for mutator, a change of several million dollars Is reported lu these items. The exs'i)se incurred by the government in war and the rapidly developing Indi cations that the Nicaragua canal can not only be constructed more cheaply than at first Imagined, but ought to 1st built by Uncle Ham himself, are con spiring, he Intimated, to assure the waterway between the Atlantic aud Pacific within a fe v years. "President McKinley," said Mr Cooley, "and many of the leading members of congress, now appreciate more than ever the supreme Impor tance of the canal to our country. Hen- ator Morgnti said to me not long ago that annexation of Hawaii practically clears up the questiou of Immediate ticcesslty for the Nicaragua canal. It is a question, however, whether or not congress will be able to pass the pro- Kscd laws or take the proper actlou at the short session lu the fail to enable the work to be begun at an early date. The construction of the waterway will not be a tremendous undertaking, though it may take seven years to com plete it. "The Maritime Canal Company asks for $11,500,000 from the government to relinquish all of its rights aud couces sions. The company, It is understood, win lane i ,oou,iiw lu me siock or a new company tuat tue government might form, aud $4,500,000 from the government to validate its bonds The company bought out all the cou cesslous of the old Nicaragua Aasociu lion, which Is said to have expended something like 11,000,000. The Marl lime Canal Company was then organ Ized, aud It has spent 32,000,000, in Nicaragua ou the caual, but hud to quit work. The compauy Is perfectly right when it says that uo private cor poration could be expected to take up caual project now, siuce congress has put ha baud lu the matter, aud when there is a stroug likelihood of the gov ernment building the ditch itself. "It is uot dell Likely kuown whether tue commission will be ready with its report duriug the short session of cou gress. A report may be submitted and may cause a vast ditlcreuce of views as to what course should be pursued. Senator Morgan and other advocates uppreciute these things, but the mani fest broadening of the scope of our national policy of late has Impressed evey one so strongly that none can see any obstacle large enough to prevent the construction of what will be an in valuable holding of the United States in lime of peace or war."

There is prac tically no such thing as freedom of the press In Japau. Whenever the news paper publishes something uufrieudly to the government it is suppressed and the editor is seut to prisoti.

It is a wise man who can appear stupid at times, but some men carry it to excess. A World special cablegram, from Manila bay, July 30, via Hong Kong, says: Owing to the firm attitude of Gen eral Merritt, the iunurgent general, Agulnaldo, has changed his front, and seems to have come to a realization that his hostile attitude - towards Americans might result disastrously to the insurgents of tlie fmiippines. Agulnaldo is becoming more friendly to the Americans. He has made two propositions to General Merritt which may solve the Insurgent problem In a manner highly advantageous to the United Stales. Id the first place, he atks the comman- ler-ln-chlef of the American land forces to permit the reliel troops to march through the streets of Manila when the city surrenders. General Merritt appears inclined to consent to this. It would gratify the vanity of the natives to let theu Indulge In wnat would seem to them a trium phant march as victors through the capital of the enemy that they have been successfully combatting and be neiglug since the wiping out of Mon tejo's fleet. At the same time, the native troops, being thus arrayed in Hue aud under direct order, may be more easily controlled iuder tactful commanders. The American troops now occupy the treuches in front of Mutate, a su berb of Manila, which were constructed by Aguiualdo, The rebels withdrew to let our meu take their places close to the Spanish Hues. Fathers Dougherty and McKinnen, the former being on General Merritt's staff, have gone to Manila to have an Interview with Archbishop Nozaleda, of the archdiocese of the Philippines, and to point out to him the futility of resistance to the American troops.
