Secretary of war Root is reported as saying that all the men, all the arms and all the supplies necessary to end the trouble in the islands will be furnished at the earliest possible moment. Aguinaldo has appealed to the powers for recognition of "Fil anino Independence'' in a doc ument dated from Tarlac, July 27, and signed by Buencamino. It has been received by all the foreign consuls in Manila, with the request that they forward it to their respective governments. Capt. St. John of the British cruiser l'eacock, who arrived at Chicago lrom Manila en route home, says that General Otis is utterly ignorant of the necessities nr rcunnnciliilitiiK of :i r??i in on i irn in the tropics. lie further says that the press censorship is carried to the extreme in Manila.

I am the mother of eight children and have had a great deal of experience with medicines. Last summer my little daughter had the dysentery in its worst form. We thought she would die. I tried everything I could think of, butfnothing seemed to do her a y good. 1 saw hy an advertisement in our paper that Chamberlain's folic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy was highly recommended and sent and got a hottle at once. It proved to be one of the very best medicines we ever had in the house. It saved my little daughter's life. I am anxious for every mottier to know what an excellent medicine it is. Had I known it at first it would have saved me a great deal of anxiety and my little daughter much suffering.?Yours truly, Mrs. Geo. F. Burdick, Liberty, R. I. For sale by J. F. Mackey A Co.
