Japanese Dwarf Trees. There lias been a good many rumors j nnd theories as to bow tbe Japanese dwarf trees are prepared in tbe first in stance , but tins is a secret wbicb the Japanese keep carefully to themselves , and even then it is only known among a limited number of families , who hand it do.wn from generation to generation. One account states that a little soil is placed in half an orange from which the inside has been removed. In this soil is placed the seed which it is de sired to grow. As the roots burst through the skin of the orange they are cut with a sharp knife. The process is repeated until the roots evince no further desire to penetrate. The out side of the orange is then varnished with a secret varnish , and the young tree planted in an ornamental pot.

Brooks , of No. 45 Lin coln Park , Chicago , Illinois , gives the following account of ner cure from dis tressing spells of vomiting : "For five years off aud on I was treated in vaiu by different doctors for relief from a stomach trouble which showed itself in frequent and trying spells of vomiting. Part of the time I was able to work and again I would bo confined to bed for three or four days in succession. "My stomach was at times so delicate that it would not retain even plain water. The spells would sometimes occur at in tervals of half an hour , and would leave me so weak that I would be compelled to lie down between them. I would have several of them during the night following a day of such attacks. Finally I became so weakened that I had to give up working altogether. I weighed only ninety-four pounds. " Last January I read about Dr. "Wil liams' Pink Pills for Pale People in one of the Chicago daily papers and bought a box and began to use them. After I had used half a box I found that I could keep on my stomach the food I ate. I was encouraged by this and kept on using the pills for four months. At the end of that time the vomiting spells had ceased altogether and niy weightveiit up to 142 pounds and is still growing. " I think I surely would have died if it had not beeu for Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for I sometimes vomited clear blood , and for three or four days at a time I could not eat a bite of anything. One doctor said I had chronic inflamma- fion of the stomach , and another said my difficulty was a cancer , but none of their medicines did me any good at all. finally I concluded that I did not have .blood enough to digest my food and I began the treatment that has cured me. I can eat anything now , and have strength for all kinds of work. I always keep Dr. "Williams' Pink Pills on hand , and I recommend them to my friends because I know they cm-ed me. " Dr. Williams'Pink Pills agree with the most delicate stomachs and strengthen the digestive organs until they do their work perfectly. They are so'ld by all druggists * Punishing Crime in Korea.

The beautiful white marble man tel over the fireplace of the East room , at which many of the fathers of the 'Republic had warmed and meditated , or chatted with visitors and statesmen , was torn out and sold by auction for two dollars and a quarter. It was rescued from a junk shop in Alexan dria by a patriotic gentleman Colonel J. E. Sickels , who owns a fine colonial iflome near Washington , and it now , 'adoras his dining room. Nearly all the ( fine old furniture that was so appro priate to the old White House was sac rificed at the same sale. A beautiful sideboard that had graced the state dining room and had held the dishes and glassware from which diplomats , statesmen and their wives and sweet hearts had eaten and drunk , which was presented to the first President Harrison , was sold to a saloon-keeper for a trifle , and now does duty in a 7th street dive. The beautiful chandeliers , with their thousands of cut glass pen dants , which were imported from France at enormous expense to the government , were torn out and re placed by the tawdry selection of a modern gasman. Many ladles when visiting tho White ( flouse to view these historic and price less relics have shed tears when told [ > y the attendants that President Roosevelt had ordered them removed , Und they did not know where they had been removed to. President Roosevelt Is an iconoclast ; he wants novelty and loves excite ment. The memories of former great- ness nnd the reminders of the great men of the Republic are to him as nothing. All these priceless treasures of former days that other Presidents have cherished and cared for have been dispersed never to be gathered again. Ship Subsidy Resuscitated. The whole Roosevelt administration seems saturated withe idea that a ship subsidy bill must be forced through Congress. The latest high offi cial to attempt to coerce Congress is Robert B. Armstrong , Assistant Secre ,1 tary of the Treasury. While Secretary Bhaw and others of the cabinet have veiled their desire for this robbery of the people for the ship trust , they are quite as strongly for a ship subsidy Dr thcdr under strappers would not be fleclaring for it. The occasion taken by Mr. Armstrong to inoculate others with this Republican policy of subsidy was the national convention of the American Institute of bank clerks , held at St. Louis Aug. 25. He de clared that the upbuilding of the mer chant marine was wormy of the best thought and activity of nis hearers , and further said : "Just why some of the American people objected to government assist ance in supplying American rolling stock for a highway of commerce that has been in existence since creation , I am unable to understand. "They had not objected seriously or * successfully against government aid to the transcontinental railroads , and he asked why they should protest when it is suggested that the government help place upon the bosom of the sea ships that fly the American flag. " So we may expect if Mr. Roosevelt and a Republican Congress is elected , to see strong pressure brought to boar upon Congress to load up the people with an enormous tax for Morgan and his steamship trust. Mikado Has Job for Roosevelt. The Mikado of Japan evidently has taken the measure of President Roose velt and knows that It is not as a statesman but as a warrior that he is valuable. According to a special cable from France to the St. Louis Post-Dis patch a Paris newspaper says : a "We have it from a trustworthy source that the Mikado will ask Presi dent Roosevelt , in the event of his de feat in the coining election , to become commander-ln-chief of the Japanese armies in the field. " The advisers of the Mikado have doubtless come to the conclusion that Mr. Roosevelt is to be defeated for it President , or the offer would not have been made , and that the President has the offer under consideration is proba ble , but will await developments fore deciding. With Roosevelt in Man churia there would be "something do ing" : all the time , and if the Japs could stand the pressure they would either fi drive the Russians out of the East or perish in the attempt. With Colonel v Roosevelt in command we should get s some news of what was transpiring , , - , for It would be an insignificant news Ic paper that would not have a corre Icei spondent on the spot , for the lid would \ \ be off and no censorship to bedevil the f < dispatches/ Ship Subsidy to Be Revived. is Of course Secretary Shaw directly Ic Ictl represents the President in his public tl announcements and speeches. When tlhi he spoke at the banquet given by the hi New York Chamber of Commerce last hia November at Delmonico's , he was en a < thusiastic for the ship-subsidy steal , If n : no other way could be devised of in tl creasing'the merchant marine. As the tlp ; Junketing committee of Congress , a headed by Senator Gallinger , has been 01 holding metings all over the country on purpose to gather evidence in favor of the ship-subsidy bill , there is no doubt' that such a message will be forced through Congress if money and influence will do it. President Roose velt has virtually indorsed the pro gram that Secretary Shaw spoke of with so much favor , and the only means left to stop the steal is for the people to defeat those who voted for it Nearly every Republican member of the United States'Senate is on record as voting in its favor , and several of them are candidates this year for re election. The bill was not voted upon In the House of Representatives. The Republican majority there feared the people , but it is claimed that a ma jority are pledged to do so when it comes up at the next session. Every candidate for Congress should be made to pledge himself to vote against a subsidy bill in whatever form it may be presented , and also that members of the Legislature will not vote to re- elect Senators who favored it. It is bad enough to be plundered by the trusts through the protective tariff , which is an indirect form of subsidy , but to rob the people directly by grant ing an enormous subsidy to the Mor gan steamship trust would be a crown ing infamy that the voters should \ird against. "Where Part of the Republican Cam paign Fund Comes From. The attempt to throw dust into the voters' eyes by the pretense that the Republican National Committee is short of cash , is hardly-consistent with the report that the head lobbyist of the Panama Canal steal has paid to Mr. Cortelyou ? 400,000 that he prom ised Senator Hanna if the treaty was ratified. There was considerable con sternation when Hanna died amongst the principal Republican leaders as to whether that promise to Hanna would be kept , but the chief Panama con spirator kept his word and came up to the captain's office and settled like a little man. It was also reported that a large sum , said to be $200,000 , has been forthcoming from J. Pierpont Morgan as part of the bargain that gave his firm the control of the Pan ama payment to the French company. The support of President Roosevelt by the Sun , which is largely owned by Morgan , is doubtless part of the same bargain. Panama has been an un savory mess from its inception and does not seem to have improved in flavor since it has been transferred to this country. That President Roose velt should be even cognizant of the bribery and corruption is unfortunate , but that he is benefiting by it person ally is deplorable. , Political Potpourri. The Republicans want "the support" of Wall street , but they wish Mr. Mor gan and Mr. Rockefeller would not be so effusive about it as to attract at tention. | Senator Lodge wishes he had al lowed those reciprocity treaties to come to a vote in the Senate and the business men of Massachusetts would take more stock in his present pretend ed reciprocity sentiments. Teddy has met the terrible Turk and vanquished him without even a smell of powder , and if some other country does not give our navy a job there will be nothing for it to do but come home and dance attendance on the Four Hundred at Newport Flour has gone up one dollar a bar rel , but the price of radium has de creased one million dollars a pound. Carroll D. Wright , of the Labor Bu reau , will have to get out another bul letin and show that living expenses are stationary , for flour and radium will offset each other , according to his way of figuring. There is great rejoicing in Delaware. Addicks has announced that he will be candidate until he is elected or dies , and that every Republican , "especially the colored brethren , should register and be prepared to vote. There is a rush to register , but the voting will not proceed very lively until the cash is produced. The Republican campaign book might be called an official document ; should be entitled to free distribu tion through the mails under frank , for it was prepared in a government department. It is a wonder the Re publican National Committee did not have the gall to print the book at the government printing office. The Filipinos may be getting all the freedom they are capable of enjoying , but the Americans in the Philippines would prefer having a jury trial in stead , of being tried by a Spanish judge. If the Constitution had fol lowed the flag to the Philippines , the editors lately convicted of slander would possibly be enjoying more com fortable quarters. The Republican campaign text book out , and for the asking anyone can learn the real truth about Teddy and the trusts ; how to have reciprocity without reciprocating ; how the door has been opened in China , but we can't get in ; how honestly and capably the administration has run the govern ment without fraud or guile ; and how the Republican party has put up the price of wheat for the farmer and re- luced the cost , of living to the balance * f us .

I had doctored for years and was steadily growing worse. I had trouble with my kidneys , and two doctors told me I had Bright's disease ; also had falling of the womb , and could nofe walk a block at a time. My back and head ached all the time , and I was so nervous I could not sleep ; had hysteria and fainting spells , was tired all the tune , had such a pain in my left side that I could hardly stand at times without putting my foot on something. "I doctored with several good doctors , but they did not help me any. I took , in all , twelve bottles of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound , five boxes of Liver Pills , and used three packages of Sanative Wash , and feel like a new woman , can eat and sleep well , do all my own work , and can walk two miles without feeling over tired.
