MULL'S GRAPE TONIC CURED HIM.
WUbert Thompson never knew a well dav until last Tune1 he had been constipated all his life many
doctors treated him, but all failed to even help him his health failed rapidly and on January 2J,
1903, Mrs. Thompson asked us to suggest a treatment for her husband We thought the case
too serious and recommended that a specialist be consulted but he also failed to help the
patient NOW HE IS WELL.
Mull's Grape Tonic Cured Him
Mrs. Thompson first wrote us as follows: "My husband, aged 23, suffers from sharp pains In his stomach and
sometimes thinks It is his heart. Let me know by return mall what causes the pain. If you can. Mr. Thompson
has been treated by several doctors, but they have given him up."
We promptly advised that a first-class specialist be consulted. We quote: "We want to sell Mull's Grape
Tonic, because we know It will cure constipation, but 50c. a bottle Is no object to us when a human life is at stake,
and if your husband's case is as serious as you state, we suggest you consult a reliable specialist, not the advertising
kind, promptly." At the same time, knowing that Mull's Grape Tonic could do no harm, we advised Its use until a
physician could be consulted. January 25 Mrs. Thompson wrote that a physician had been consulted. He diag
nosed the case as being chronic constipation and dyspepsia. His treatment was followed faithfully, but there was
no perceptible improvement in Mr. Thompson's health. Then he began taking Mull's Grape Tonic and on Sept.
3, 1903, we received the following letter from Mrs. Thompson:
"You will remember that I wrote to you last Januarw In regard to my husband's health. It
is four months since he quit taking Mull's Grape Tonio fop constipation, which he suffered from
sinoe birth. He took Just 24 bottles of it and is perfectly cured. He Is much stronger and has
gained considerably in flesh. I cannot thank you enough for Mull's Grape Tonic 'It is worth Its
weight in gold.' dust S12 cured him and he has spent hundreds of dollars with doctors who did
him no good. Now I want to state my oase to you and expeot your early reply. I also have consti
pation, have had for three years. Kindly Jet me know as I am sure it will oure me if you say It will,
as it did all you claimed it would In my husband's ease. I await an early reply."
Very respectfully yours, MRS. W. H. THOMPSON, 801 Main St., Peoria, III.

Some Facta Concerning- It That Are
ot Generally Known.
Though every schoolboy presumably
knows to a nicety where the Cape of
Good Hope Is situated, there does un
doubtedly prevail In less enlightened
circles some vagueness of conception
as to the exact locality of that cele
brated headland. Even the gentle
reader Is faintly conscious of uncer
tainty and answers with a briskness
not born of conviction: "The Cape of
Good Hope? Why, of course I know
1 where it is. Down at the end of South
Africa." Gentle reader, you are not
very far out, fifty or a hundred miles
perhaps. And, as you say, it is not of
the slightest consequence from a prac
tical point of view.
The Cape of Good Hope lies at a con
siderable distance from the end and Is,
In fact, the middle of the three promon
tories, severally Inconspicuous, which
jointly terminate a slender peninsula,
some twenty miles In length, forming
the barrier between False bay and the
Atlantic ocean on the west. These three
headlands, lying near together and
commonly undivided on a map of mod
erate scale, are locally designated
Cape Point. It was here that Bartholo
mew Diaz first encountered in full
force the prevalent southeasterly gales
and denounced the rugged, threaten
ing, threefold promontory under the
sounding appellation of the Cape of
Storms, to be afterward rechristened
by pious, trustful hearts the Cape of
Good Hope. The Cape of Storms, the
Cape of Good Hope, Cape Farewell! Is
there nothing In a name?

la across Guild's Lake, at the Lewis &
Clark Exposition. The framework of the
various barns is already completed, and
all will be in readiness by September 10.
As the stock show dates are September
19 to 29. inclusive, this is ample time.
'There will be room for 500 head of cat

150 goats, and there are enough entries
to fiill every stall.
The list of judges has just been given
out by M. D. Woisdom; live stock su

The entry list is now closed, and an
inspection of it assures the fulfilment of
Mr. Wisdom's early prophecy that the
stock show would be not only the best
ever held in the West .but one of the
best ever held anywhere. Stockmen all
over the United States have taken a keen
interest In it from the first, and a very
large attendance of western ranchmen
and stockmen is expected as many have
postponed their visit to the big Fair in
order to enable them to be present when
the stock show is in progress.
Among the more notable entries, men
tion might be made of Univers, winner
of many prizes, a stallion purchased a
year ago by Boedigheimer and Tannkee,
of Salem, Oregon, from McLaughlin Bros,
of Kansas City for a consideration In the
neighborhood of $3000. Univers won 1st
prize in class, and two medals and two
prizes in collection at St. Louis last year.
He was foaled May 27. 1900. and on the
Continent won a first prize and gold med
al at the show of the Societe Hippique
Percheronne In 1903, and won the first
prize in collection at the Grand Annueal
Show of France in the same year. He
was awarded first prize at the Indiana
State Fair in 1903. Univers is one of
the McLaughlin Brother's finest importa
tions. He is a handsome black stallion
and weighs 2310 pounds.

Fifteen Articles Subscribed To by
Envoys.
PORTSMOUTH, N. H., Sept. 5. The
peace treaty opens with a preamble re
citing that His Majesty, the Emperor
and Autocrat of all the' Russias, and His
Majesty, the Emperor of Japan, desiring
to close the war now subsisting between
them and having appointed their re
spective plenipotentiaries and furnished
I them with full powers, which were found
j to be in form, have come to an agree
j ment on a treaty of peace and arranged
as follows:
j Article 1 Stipulates for the re-es-.
tabllshment of peace and friendship be
j tween the sovereigns of the two empires
and between the subjects of Russia and
! Japan, respectively.
Article 2 His Majesty, the Emperor
J of Russia, recognizes the preponderant
influence from political, military and
economic points of view of Japan in the
Empire of Corca, and stipulates that
Russia will not oppose any measure for
its government, protection or control that
Japan will deem necessary to take in
j Corea, in conjunction with the Corean
'government; but Russian subjects and
j Russian enterprises are to enjoy the
' same status us the subjects and enter
prises of other countries.
I Article 3 It is mutually agreed that
. the territory of Manchuria be simultane
' ously evacuated by both Russian and
, Japanese troops. Both countries being
! concerned in this evacuation, their sit
i nation should be absolutely identical. All
j rights acquired by private persons and
companies shall remain intact.
Article 4 The rights possessed by Rus
sia in conformity with the lease by Rus
sia of Port Arthur and Dalny, together
with the lands and waters adjacent, shall
pass over in their entirety to Japan, but
j the properties and rights of Russian sub-
jects are to be safeguarded and respect
ed.
Article 5 The governments of Russia
and Japan engage themselves reciprocally
I not to put any obstacles to the general
i measures (which shall be alike for all
; nations) that China may take for the de
j velopment of the commerce and industry
of Manchuria."
j Article 6 The Manchurian Railway
shall be operated jointly between Russia
and Japan at Kouang-Tcheng Tse. The
two branch lines shall be employed only
for commercial and industrial purposes.
In view of Russia's keeping her branch
t line, with all rights acquired by her con
I vention with China for the construction
of that railway, Japan acquires the mines
in connection with such branch line
which falls to her. -However, the rights
of private parties or private enterprises
are to be respected. Both parties to this
treaty remain absolutely free to under
take what they deem fit on expropriated
grounds.
Article 7 Russia and Japan engage
themselves to mak a conjunction of the
two branch lines which they own at
Kouang-Tcheng-.Tse.
Article 8 It is agreed that the branch
lines of the Manchurian Railway shall
be worked with a view to assure com
mercial traffic between them without ob
struction. Article 9 Russia cedes Japan the
southern half of Sakhalin Island as far
north as the 50th degree of north latitude
together with the inslands depending
thereon. The right of free navigation
is assured in the Straits of La Perouse
and Tartary.
Article 10 This article recites the sit
uation of Russian subjects on the south
ern part of Sakhalin Island, and stipu
lates that Russian colonists there shall
be free and shall have the right to remain
there without changing their nationality.
Per contra, the Japanese government
shall have the right to force Russian con
victs to leave the territory which is ceded
to her.
Article 11 Russia engages herself to
make an agreement with Japan giving to
Japanese subjects the right to fish, in
Russian territory or waters of the Sea of
Japan, the Sea of Okhotsk, and Bearing
Sea.
Article 12 The two high contracting
parties engage themselves to renew the
commercial industry existing between
the two governments prior to the war in
all its vigor, with slight modification in
details and with a most-favored-nation
clause.
Article . 13 Russia and Japan recipro
cally engage to restitute their prisoners
of war on paying the real cost of keeping
the same, such claim for cost to be sup
ported by documents.
Article 14 This peace treaty shall be
drawn up in two languages, French and
English, the French text being evidence
for the Russians and the English text
for the Japanese. In case of difficulty
of interpretation, the French document
shall be final evidence.
Article 15 The ratification of this
treaty shall be countersigned by the
sovereigns of the two states within 50
days after its signature. The French and
American Embassies shall be intermed
iaries between the Japanese and Russian
governments to announce by telegraph
the ratification of the treaty.
Two additional articles are agreed to.
as follows:
Article 1 The evacuation of Manchur
ia by both armies shall be complete
within 18 months from the signing of the
treaty, beginning with the retirement of
troops of the first line. At the expira
tion of 18 months the two parties will
only be able to leave as guards for the
railway 15 soldiers per kilometer.
Article 2 The boundary which limits
the parts owned, respectively, by Russia
and Japan in Sakhalin Island shall be
definitely marked off on the spot by a
special commission.
The Way Smoklnfr Acta Upon and In
jure the System,
Are you "learning to smoke," boyst
Learning by heart "tobacco heart?"
Read what a doctor says In the Med
ical Summary and then enjoy your
smoke if you can: '
In smoking tobacco we take in car
bonic oxide, several ammonias and a
very poisonous oil containing nicotine.
The ammonias and nicotine are the
substances which by acting in numer-
ous directions are so Injurious to the
( system. The ammonias act on the
blood, making it alkaline and fluid,
thereby impairing Its nutritive prop
erty. The stomach Is debilitated and dys
pepsia induced. The innervation of
the heart is disturbed, its action is
weak. Irregular and intermittent, and
falntness and vertigo are the conse
quences. Owing to the disturbances in the
blood and heart the process of nutri
tion Is slow, and In the young serious
ly affected tissue is paralyzed and vi
sion Is impaired. ,
Tobacco Is essentially a functional
rather than an organic poison. It mod
ifies the special energies and ' not the
structure. Tobacco is eliminated by
the kidneys and very rapidly; conse
quently the bad effects quickly disap
pear under proper treatment if, how
ever, the habit is given up.
Organizing Piano Class.
Miss Eva Benson, of Portland, Ore
gon, a pupil of Miss Marie Soule of that
city and highly recommended by her as
a teacher, is organizing a class in piano
music in this city. Miss Benson has just
returned from the East where she has
been studying with Mr. A. K. Virgil, of
the Virgil Clavier Piano school of New
York, London and Berlin a school which
makes a specialty of training teachers.
Before coming to this section of the
country Miss Benson studied for three
years with Signor Carlos Sobrino, an em
inent concert pianist and teacher. Any
one desiring to join the class can com
municate with Miss Benson through Mrs.

Japancie Politenese.
A Russian soldier left behind his
brothers in arms. He slowly rose up
and faced his captors. They smiled
amiably,- and, reassured, he pulled off
his cap and commenced to fan himself
with it. Now, it is a common custom
for a Japanese soldier to carry about
with him in the -hot weather a small
fan. On this occasion a fan was forth
coming and banded to the Russian, but
he refused to take it, preferring to use
his cap. Still, with an amiable smile
ou his face, one of the Japanese again
proffered him the rejected fan, at the
same time covering him with a re
volver. The captive took the gift with
out further reluctance. From Brindle's

The Larkapor.
Great vigilance has to be exercised
by the antiquarian painter. This was
demonstrated by Sir Laurence Alma
Tadema's picture "The Finding of
Moses." Looking at the picture, a well
known botanist examined with admira
tion the painting of the lifelike lark
spurs which form the foreground, and
then, turning toward the artist and
congratulating him on the successful
rendering, pointed out that larkspurs
were of a comparatively recent growth.
The painter laughed as he replied, "So
I thought, until dried specimens of
them were discovered in some of the
recently explored royal tombs of
Egypt." .
