KEEP YOUR EYE ON US. Another victory for American "diplo macy," at Algeciras! What we don't know about straightening up continental squabbles, will lie unfolded just as fast as we are given the opportunity to ex hibit our pregnant and adroit talent'. It's just as easy as rolling off a log; all we want is a given mess of facts, figures and fancies, so interwoven that the spunky and punctilious old-school diplo mats can do nothing but sulk and glare and glower; then if all hands will step back and call in the American business man, and give him free rein for about ten hours, the solution will be handed down with a quiet expedition and com fortable certainty wholly acceptable. The trouble if, the profession of diplo macy has been coated over with such an elaborate gloss and glamour of pres tige and pompou-ity and sham, that its efficacy has been negatived to a point of absolute zero; all that is needed is the exercise of honest, straightforward logical business methods, and at that the American is the ina-t- r of the world. 0 SOME STRAIGHT TESTIMONY. Step by step the wretched story of the outrages committed in the name of organized union labor, as represented by the coal miners, goes on with wonderful perspicuity and truthfulness. Creek fire and bombs and the spirit of innate sav agery have supervened as instruments for the working out of the destinies of the unions, and, while this intolerable code has been projected mainly by the equally wretched code of the organized operators, it does not mitigate the evil in either case, and has put labor, as such, absolutely on the defensive, with the growing prejudice of the people pow erfully aligned against it. It is time the miners' union was invoking its brains in its own salvation, and letting its murderous passions die down to a point where the influences of common sense and merciful reason may be ex pected to do something for its cause. 0 THE INSURANCE GRAFTS. BTerv man in the country who is struggling to maintain his life insurance policy, denying himself and his family comforts and conveniences that he may guard against an untoward hour when they might be left otherwise helpless, must realize by this time what a play thing he is in the hands of the insur ance scoundrels who have lieen using his money for a thousand and one extraneous and extraordinary purposes. But he is in the hands of an impelling necessity, and the companies evidently knew this status would be reached some day and relief upon the utter helplessness of the insured against any relinquishment of his policy and against any determined effort to correct the abuse. It is pretty nearly time for all America to begin to turn red in the face with the stress of thought of how uttyld iroeshntse are, not only in this line but in a hun dred others. We arc the laughing stock of mankind. n All of the party leaders are agreed up on the proposition that if you don't reg ister you can't vote. The Hon. liouike t'ockian has so often played " oiT agin, on agin, gone agin " that it would not be surprising in 1:hk to find him eloquently denouncing the doctrines embodied in his latest sjK'cilio against lVinoeratie " lunacy.' j An English railroad company is now running a passenger car with this label attached: " Ladies' Smoking." That certainly ought to encourage- Mr. Car negie in hi- efforts to reform the laig'i-h language. 0 Buffalo has heard of the greater Pitts burg, and now there is an All-Buffalo movement. It is becoming more ami more difficult for people to dwell in the suburbs of an a-piring city. Th- city soon reaches out its tentacles and draws them in to swell the size of its directory. 0 Of the .12t.fHMi oonti ibiit-il from all sources in the United States to the Jap anese famine fund. .1imi.ikh) has come in contributions through "The Christian Hemld" of New York.

The report pointed out the ,ilis,nee of gen eral information and interest in the siilijeet and -poke of threatened danger to the Monroe doctrine contained in the ii r. -sponsible conditions that at present eist on the island. Resolutions were adopted by the Board, denouncing the use of dynamite and other forms of uolence and lawless ne.s hy striker- or their -ynipathi -is.

It would be pretty awkward i--uing daily vouchers for the "safety and sanitv" of a standard bearer in far off Texas. 0 A recent list of new fiction added to the Brooklyn public libraries showed that more than half was published in German. We begin to understand how it is that in Germany they confuse the terms Brooklyn and United States. 0 Averaging the wealth of America, every man, woman and child would be possessed of over $1000 each. But vou wouldn't realize it while watching the new crop from the steerage of an ocean liner. Olencoe, the Chicago suburb which achieved fame by the construction of "bumps" for speeding automobiles, now has an additional reason to feel proud. Its device has been adopted by Professor Fisher, of Wesleyan University, recently elected Mayor of Middletown, Conn. If drivers now exceed the speed limits in Mayor Fisher's bailiwick thev will be shunted into the Connectitcut River by the " bumps " and their ardor for rapid tight will be suddenly cooled. With a population of more than sixty millions, Germany is easily the second nation in Europe in numbers and the third civilized nation in the worldper haps she would say the second. More over, her rate of increase is one of the largest in Europe, being now and for the last ten years a trifle more than 1.5 per cent a year. That of England is only 1.2 per cent, of Austria 0.!i per cent, of Hungary scarcely 1 per cent, of France 0.15 per cenr; of Italy 0.75 per cent, of Spain 0.0 per cent and of Russia possibly as much as 1.5, though statistics are so incomplete as to afford no sure basis of calculation. With such a record, the sons of the Fatherland may well be in spired to fulfil Bismarck's boast that they fear God and nobody else in the world. Government Will Try to Stamp Out Loathsome Tropical Disease in Guam. WASHISvTUN, March '.'f.-Gangrosa, a tropie.il disease iimre repulsive than leprosy, ha- become -o prevalent upon the Island of Guam, that Lieutenant Me- Namee, U. S. N'., Acting Governor of the island, has recommended the establish ment of a ho-pital for the isolation of the disease, which is believed to lie high ly contagious. Admiral ltixey. Surgeon General of the Navy, has approved the recommendation, and it is likely a $50ni ho-pital for ea-es of the new di-ease will be erected at once m-ur the lejK-r hos pital. Lieutenant MiN.unee -ays the diseuse destroys the upper part of the face by by slow ulcerations and is more horrible, both to the victim and his companion thau l pio-y.

Prominent men from all parts of the country are endorsing Yinol, and strong testimonial letters from four ministers of the gospel and several physicians have b.en receivd within a week. Such un solicited testimony as this is the best proof of merit any medicine can hav. The Rev. George W. Ruland of Keene, N. II., writes : " I have used your cod liver oil preparation, Vinol, as a tonic, and I do not believe there is any other medicine that can equal it. It built me up and strengthened me when run down and overworked. Vinol has done for me more than was claimed for it." "We honestly believe there is no other remedy or cod liver oil preparation known to medicine that has the healing strengthening power which Vinol has, and if it fails to create strength and health for run-down, debilitated people, old people, weak, sickly women and children, nursing mothers, and after a severe sickness, or if it fails to cure a hacking cough, chronic cold, throat or bronchial trouble, or to make those who are too thin fat, rosy and healthy, we will return every cent paid us for it.

I did conildarabl more work than my strength permitted, and, havlnf mental trouble at the same time, my health broke down completely and I found myself unable to rest cr eat. My nerv ous system became ahattered and I wu pale and emaciated and had to take to my bed. My sister advised me to try Lydla E.
