A STORY FROM A SYRACUSE LADY

Complaint and Rheumatism, and
Was Cured.

Mrs. Abell lives at No. 1H Roberts

of years I have been troubled with a liver
complaint that made mo almost helpless
at times. Complications set In, among
them rheumatism, nnd I became so ill I
could scarcely walk ncross tho floor with
out aid. I consulted one of our home
physicians, who Informed me that I had
heart trouble, and began treating me for
that. The treatment did no go:id, and I
became convinced that he did not under
stand my cate. Une day 1 picked up a
newnpaoer and read of Dr. Kennedy's
Favorite Remedy, which I purchased, and
began taking, and improved greatly. I
liavo now taken six bottle, and was never
so well in my life. I can say nothing but
kind words for Dr. David Kennedy's
Favorite Remedy, to which I owe so
much. I know of another case in which
Favorite Remedy restored to braltli a
friund of mine who was thought to be In
curable."
Mrs. Abell said she would bo glad to
Itscrlbe her case to any sufferer who may
call upon her. The family nre quite as
profut-o In their praise of Favorite
Remedy, as Mrs. Abell herself.

Victoria, 11. C, Deo. 1. Tho steamship
Victoria, thirteen days from Yokohama,
arrived yesteitlay. The Associated Press
correspondent writing Nov. 17 says: No
trouble Is expected to result from the af
fair of the steamer Sydney. Tho United
States (rovornment Is understood to tegard
the action of Japan as justifiable, 011 tho
gronnds of solf (lefenso, nud Great Britain
coincides, lilthougb somo form of explana
tion or npology may bo deemed desirnblo.
Franco has taken a less easy view 6f thu
situation, but Is not disposed to mnko seri
ous difficulties. Her opinion appears tolre
that tho exigency was not sufficiently
alarming to call for mi gruvo a measure ns
the removal of passengers from tho French
mail steamship.
Lator developments Indicate thnt tho
self declared explosive experts wcro iri-o-sponslbls
siHiculntors, if not ilnposters.
Reports wore received connecting Colonel
Fred Grant with the undertaking, nnd his
name carried with it n weight which would
not have bom accorded to unknown ad
venturers. It is well known that 1,1 Hung
Chang holds the memory of General Grant
in reverence, nnd he would presumably
have been disposed to place unusual re
sources at the disposal of a party repre
senting his son. The sums alleged to havo
been promired to Colonel Grant, nnd
which havo buen actually advanced to his
agents, correspond exactly with thoao set
forth by the travelers on tho Gaollc and
Sydney.
Taking thoso and other co-rolntlve facts
into consideration, tho Jnpnneso govern
ment believed Itself under the necessity of
guarding against the threatened danger.
ilie French diplomatic and consular of
ficials wore powerless to intervene, oven
had they been inclined to do so, and, rely
lug upon the authorized rulings of inter
national law, Japun nuiled herself of
what she claims ns a belligerent right.
The American passongers were rcleoi-eil
on Nov. 1C, after taking oaths not to aid
China In anj manner, and expressing in
writing their gratitudu for tho leniency of
their trentinunt by tho Jnpnneso govern
ment. A telegram from Purls announces
that the French government has reforrcd
several points of the Sydney affair to Us
legal advisers, who pronounce judgment
that Japan acted within her rights, and is
not liable to censure under tho rules of in
ternational law.
The feeling oi the populace is strongly
against intervention in negotiations for
peace by tho United States or by any
western country, and the Japanese govern
ment considers that nothing but uu ap
plication from China herself will bo
acceptable.
As previously reported, tho minister of
of foreign ullalrs recently sent a com
munication to the governor of tho port lit
Kaniagarvniu, ln which it was stated that
Japanese subjects serving on board United
Stutes ships ln Japanese ports must bo ro
gardud by the government as coming un
der the jurisdiction of tho imperial courts
whenever charged with otTenses against
tiio law. As tills isthe opinion maintained
by the United Htates, tho question was
brought up for diplomatic- discussion.
It now appears that tho foreign minister
had no intention to deliver an cx-cathedra
judgment on the subject. A native news
paper which printed his letter to the local
governor has been lined twenty yen for
publishing privntooiliclal documents with
out permission. Tho correspondence under
consideration conveyed only the individual
views of the writer. The incident will,
then lore, pass without luithcr debate.
The Jnpanuso newspaper nre amusing
themselves by publishing maps of China
in partitions, showing the condition it
will be lu aftor the war has had its full
effoct. Most of thoso limps represent
Japan ln possession of the provinces of
Shlnglng, Chihill, Sang, Guing, Kiahgau,
Chekiang and Fu Klen, and as a result
tho vice royalties of Shanzl, Monon nud
Annul. To Kngland aro assigned Kwong,
Huua, Ilupeh and Shunsi; to Gormnny,
Kwangal, Kwcichow and Hninau, and to
Franco, Yunan, Szechuen and Kangsuh.
The torritory of Mongolia, and nothing
moro, U set apart for Russia.
That Great Urltalu has assumed an ex
tremely threatening attitudo towards
China is nsserted with great emphasis and
directness by correspondents ln Puklnand
Tientsin. Tho apparent neglect of her
former power to demand reparation for
the Chung King affront (when Japanese
passengers sailing Under the British ling
woro outraged and robbed by Chinamen)
has never ceased to bo u mattor of sur
prise, but if reports now current are .well
founded It is evident thnt tho wrath of tho
English government Is not slumbering for
a, moment. Wo now hear of considerable
preparation for the enforcement of satis
faction. Admiral Fraunimtlu has sum
moned tho outlro British licet to moot nt
Shanghai to await the arrival of a strong
military force from India, the landing of
which at Chusuu is to bo effected without
delay. The British envoy is to demand
payment of 11 largo sum, tho degradation
and ulsmisEal or tno cmel magistrate hold-
iB"lce a' Tientsin, mid an avowal
of
regret, accompanied by a saluto to tho flag
thoso conditions aro not promptly fulfilled
troops and warships will commence re-
prltals.
Aiiairs in uorea appear to uo ln a very
bad state, desplto olllcliil Japaneso stuto-
tneuta. Tho Intelfursnoo of Japan to
wards putting everything right appears td
have had tho contrary effect by putting
overy tlilugwroug. Anarchy stalks through'
out the southern part of the kingdom. It

much at first, but soon became more painful, nif
trength began to docllne and I eould not rest at
night. I was attended bj- several different doc
tors but all failed to check the trouble and I
grew rapidly worse. Early In 1880 I had to nse

lost my appotito and being reduced ln flesh. In
the fall of 1891 I bad to take to my bed and

until spring. Duriug all this time I had tried
many different medicines but did get relief, In
the meantime to give in relief, the several
bundles around my knee were lanced and later
overy effort made to heal the running sores but
all ln vain. Then it was, while eonflned to my
bed last spring, that my father, having read
much about the, merits of If ood's SarsapaiUla,
decided to have me give It a trial. I have taken
it regularly, using nearly ten bottles. All th
sores but two are healed and these are nearly
well. I have thrown away my crutches as I can
walk, go to school and do some work. I have
a good appetite and real good health and.
