Nelson writes: “Having been painfully afflicted with chronic rheumatism and the adjune* tive complications for many years, and after having received many general and special treatments with only tem porary relief, I read your scientifle treatise on catarrhal diseases. “At my request you prescribed a special course of the Peruna remedies, which I closely followed, and am happy to re port that my rheumatism and compli cated ailments are subdued, and I feed young again at tho age of 69 years. “Reason wi 1 ! accept your classification of catarrhal diseases as scientific and true, and tho Peruna remedies as a standard treatment for them.

Warships of at least twelve nations will be assembled in Uampion Roads at the opening of the Jamestown ex position on April 2G. All the great naval powers will be represented ex cept Japan, whose ships will come later. The great vessels of England, France, Germany, Austria, bweden and other nations will he side by side with the ships of the United States ami those from South America, says the New York Herald’s Washington correspondent In the harbor of Hampton Roads aud neighboring waters probably about 100 war vessels will be anchored, the flags floating from their mastheads indicat ing the peculiarly international char acter of the gathering. England’s squadron will be the lar gest and most formidable of those to visit the United States aud will be ex ceeded in size only by the magnificent American fleet under Rear Admiral Evans, which will be mobilized at Hampton Roads during the exposition. Japau and France will send the next largest squadrons. The foreign vessels will be In nearly all cases armored and protected cruis ers. England’s largest ship will be the cruiser Good Hope, sister ship to the powerful cruiser Drake. The Good Hope’s displacement Is 14,100 tons ami her trial speed 23 knots an hour. Her armament consists of two 9.2-lncb guns mounted singly In barbettes, six teen slx-lnch In casements, fourteen twelve-pair and three three-pair quick flrers. nine machine guns and two sub merged torpedo tubes. With the Good Hope will be the armored cruisers Hampshire, Roxbnrg and Argyll, each with a displacement of 10350 tons. The English squadron will be com manded by Rear Admiral Neville. Under the command of Rear Admi ral Thierry France will tend three cruisers. The protected cruiser Jean Bart was originally designated, but she has been wrecked on the coast of Africa, and another vessel will be sent in her place. The largest of the squad ron will-be the Victor Hogo. with a dis placement of 12.550 tons. She is one of the fastest of her class, with a speed of 22 knots. 8he Is armed with four 7.6-1 neb breecbloadlng guns In pairs In turrets at the bow and atarn, sixteen 0^4 neb quick firing guns, of which twelve are la naira la unoar dark tur rets, three on each side and four In main deck casemates, besides a large additional number of smaller guns. To accompany the Victor Hugo France Is sending the armored cruiser Kleber, which Is of considerably small er tonnage, but equipped with heavy armament. One of the most Interesting visiting squadrons will be that from Japan. At least two vessels will be sent. One of these will be the Tsukuba, a newly launched ship, built at Knr entirely of Japanese construction aud equipment She Is of 14.000 tons and 22.4 knots speed, armed with eight Inch quick flrers in barbettes fore and aft and smaller calibers In proportion. The protected cruiser Chitose will accompany the Tsukuba and possibly will be joined by the Kubl. These ves sels attain great speed. Vice Admiral IJuiu will be in command of the Japa uese squadron. This will be the first visit of a Japanese squadron to the At lantic coast since Japan attained high rank as a naval power in the war with Russia. Austria will be represented in the in- ternatloual fleet by the armored cruis er Karl VII., one of her l>est vessels of that class, having a displacement of 0.250 tons aud a speed of 17.5 knots. She is armed with two 9.4-inch breech loading Krupp guns, with subsidiary armament. Sweden has decided to send a ship, but has not yet announced her choice. Italy will send an armored cruiser and a protected cruiser, but the vessels have not yet been designated. Portu gal will send a vessel, probably the cruiser Don Carlos. The flag of Brazil will be seen at the mastheads of probably three vessels in Hampton Roads. Chile will send the protected cruiser Zenteno, of 3.000 tons, and Argentina will be represented by from one to three warships of small size. No positive arrangement has been made as to Germany’s representation, but It Is considered certain that that country will have at leaat one eblp at the naval display. The Atlantic fleet of the United States navy will be at Hampton Roads. It Is the Intention of the navy depart ment always to have one American ship at Hampton Roads for every for eign ship there, so that the visitors may be properly entertained. Montana’s Naw "Hash Law.” Both houses of the Montana legisla ture have passed O’Connor’s so callel “hash” law. Governor Toole baa signed It, and it has been filed with the secre tary of state, thus making It operative Immediately. The bill Is patterned aft er the old national oleomargarine law in that it requires hotels, restaurants, cafes and boarding houses to post no tices and otherwise warn customers if any of the ingredients need In the prep aration of their meals have been adcl- ttrated. The bill provides a heavy Ana Cor violation of ita provisions. BIG POSTAL EXTENSION. Ptrcela Post, Savings Banks and Tele graphs Foreseen. Postmaster William R. Willcox of New York foresees a great extension and development of the usefulness of the postotflee department of the United States government. In a recent address before the Civic club of Niagara Falls he pointed out the development to gigantic proper tions of the service, which in its first year produced an income of $35,000. which is less than Is now received in the New York postofflee in half a day.. The registry system, he said, came in the time of President Pierce, and the money order business came at the close of the civil war. Last year the New York office did a money order business aggregating more than $340, 000,000. The free delivery service, Mr. Will cox said, began in 1803 with C85 car riers In all the cities, while New York alone now has four times as many, and there are now 22.905 city carriers and 35.760 rural free delivery routes, which have been a steady reduction of the annual deficit, and .Mr. Willcox t!’'*u"'!ir the time was now coming for considering the demands for the postal sen ! e widening Its scope. ••Pm.” he sai'i, "It is the sufest line i r ■ overnn.ent policy to develop the * ’-vie*- along the lines upon which it "• • embarked.

To me life is a highway leading through a strange country where no milepost Is passed the second time It is bordered with green fields and I countless flowers and leads from an unknown point of departure to an un known point of arrival. Our coming, I we believe, was from omnipotence, end i therefore our going, we hope, is to im mortality. Now is the season of pro ; hation. Each is chiseling a credit or a debit. As the flowers by the wayside ! give out their perfume to us in abun j dance, so also should we let unreserved : gentleness, kindness aud goodness ra diate from us to all humanity. The Important and timely moment of every life Is “the now,” and our deeds should make humanity conscious of our pass I ing.—Willis George Emerson In N* | tdonnl Magazine. Letter to N. Lipscomb, Gaffney, S. C. Dear Sir: Here’s a tale with a point to it. Florida Is the hardest state in the Union for paint. Gilmore & Davis Co, Tallahassee. Florida, think thev know what paint can do in their climate: thev’ve been nainting for 35 years. Devoe ten years’ and thev say Devoe wears 10 i vears—th'dr words are: “Buildings we painted Devoe 10 7eara ago are I in good condition of naint to.lav.” They also say lead-andoll wears onlv one y°ar there: Devoe 10 vears! Ten years Is a long lifetime for naint In Florida; longer than 20 In Maine. We don’t dare say that either Is true as a general fact in those States: but there are such In stances. If we should call the cost o? De voe In Florida half of the usual cost of naint. It would be too much: we supnose It’s about one-third: there Is so much trash there—the costliest nain* is the worst, and the worst 1« the costliest everywhere. Yours truly 38 F W DEVOE & CO P. 8.
