Wlllts the Hoard of Inquiry makes
its report, wo may expect tile yellow
Journals, which have assumed every
position in tho war talk, to come
forth and say, "We told you so !"
Spain's 4 per cent, bonds are now
quoted in the money markets of
Europe at from 55 to 58. United

Aftku having endeavored for

"where fashion is concerned the

A SOUTHERN paper says "the North
nnd Knst would supply tho guns and
ammunition, tho West would supply
the coitimlssarit department, and the
South would be tho seat of war."
Hence, according to that paper, the
South would be the loser by a war
with Spain, and all the rest of the
country would bo a gainer. This is
hardly the correct view. Probably
in tho long run the gains and losses
would bo pretty equally distributed
ShknANDOAH has long enjoyed a
well deserved reputation for the ex
cellenco of its retail mercantile es
tablishments, as well as for the en
terprise ami progressivonoss of its

to-day in this rospqet is higher than
it has ever been, and there are fow
towns in the county whose retail
stores, taken together, are more at
tractive or offer more inducements to
purchasers. There are some mam
moth concerns in other towns which
are superior in size, but there is none
whloh excels our leading local houses
in quality, in variety and cheapness,

Havana, March 21. Little work was
done on the wreck of the Maine yester
day by the divers or contractors. The
city has been quiet after the festivities
of Saturday night, lasting until early
yesterday morning at the Tacon thea
ter, where a dramatic representation
was given In old of the fund for the
Spanish army. There was plenty of
enthusiasm in the crowded theater.
Every patriotic sentiment was cheered
to the echo, but there were no sensa
tlonul features. The proceeds are not
all in yet, but it is believed that they
will amount to between $30,000 and $40,
000 In cold. Even with tho enormous
prices paid for boxes and seats It was
impossible that any such figures as
$80,000 or $100,000 could be realized, as
was Imped by some.

THE WEEK IN CONGRESS.
Mnlno Court of Inquiry Itoport Muy
Upset All CaloillatloiiH.
Washington, March 21. Whether the
report of the naval board of inquiry on
the Maine disaster goes to congress
this week with a special message from
the president calling for congressional
action our relations with Spain and the
proximity of a war, as viewed from the
standpoint of the emergency prepara
tions now going on to place the coun
try In a stuto of defense, probably will
be exhaustively debated In the house
in connection with the naval appropri
ation bill, the consldoiAtlon of which
will begin tomorrow. Tho many emer
gency Items In the bill, the large In
crease In the enlisted force, tho liberal
provision for battleships, torpedo boats
and dry docks, will bring the wnoie
subject of tho necessity for the prep
arations directly before the house. An
effort is likely upon the part of some
of the radicals to force from those In
tho confidence of the administration a
declaration of the policy of the admin
istration regarding Cuba. This they
hope to do by taunting them with some
of the rumors which have been floating
about In the newspapers.
No program has been prepared for
the senate for tho present week, and
tho course of events is liable to be in
llueneed largely by developments from
the outside. The quarantine bill is the
unfinished business on the senate cal
endar, and if opportunity offers Sen
ator Pettlgrew will got up his public
land bill. It Is expected that the Bun
dry civil appropriation bill will bo re
ported Wednesday or Thursday, and
It Is also understood to be Senator
Davis' intention to bring up the Ha
waiian treaty in order to got a vote on
the Bacon amendment.
All these plans are liable to be
changed If the report of the court of
Inquiry Into the Maine disaster should
he received. The receipt of this doc
ument would Inevitably have tho ef
fect of springing a Cuban debate In
both houses which would sidetrack all
other questions.

The Koneral condition of the troops
was considered .and all reported satis

meeting; Hint, as New Jersey has no
roast defense be,tween Sandy Hook and
Cape May, except a four gun battery
at Sea Cllrt. New Jersey, in case ot war,
would have to take care of her coasts
with her troops the minute hostilities
were bou;un between the United States
and Spain. 'While no olllclal order was
given, every man was quietly informed
to be In readiness In case an emergency
should arise.

A POPULAR MISTAKE
Regarding Eemtdlts for Dyapepsla and
Indigestion.
The national disease of Americans is indi.
gestion or in its chronic form, dyspepsia, and
forlhc very reason that it is so common
many people neglect taking proper treatment
for what they consider trifling ttomacli
trouble, when as a matter of fact, indiges
tion lays the foundation for many incurable
diseases. No person with a vigorous, healthy
stomach will fall a victim to consumption.
Many kidney diseases and heart troubles date
tlicir beginning from poor digestion j thin,
nervous people are really so because their
stomachs arc out of gear i weary, languid,
faded out women owe their condition to im
perfect digestion.
When nearly every person you meet is
afflicted with weak digestion it is not sur
prising that nearly every secret patent med
icine on the market claims to he n cure for
dyscpsia, as well as a score of other troubles,
when in fact, ns Dr. Wertliier says, there is
hut one genuine dyspepsia cure which is per
fectly safe and reliable, and moreover, this
remedy is not a patent medicine, hut it is a
scientific combination of pure pepsin (free
from animal matter), vegetable essences, fruit
salts and bismuth. It is sold by druggists
under name of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets.
No extravagant claims are made for them, but
for indigestion or any stomach trouble,
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are far ahead of
any remedy yet discovered. They act on the
food eaten, no dieting is necessary, simply
eat all the wholesome food you want and
these tablets will digest it. A cure results,
because all the stomach needs is a rest, which
Stuart's I)ysepsia Tablets give by doing the
work of digestion.
Druggists sell these tablets at 50 cents per
package. Little book on stomach diseases

AIDED BY MBS. HNKITAM.
Mrs. W. K. Paxtox, Youngtown,
North Dakota, writes about her strug
gle to regain health after tho birth of
her little girl:
" Dkau Mits. Pinkiiam: It Is with
pleasure that I .add my testimony to
your list, hoping that it may Imhieo
others to avail themselves of your val
uable medicine.
" After the birth of m tttle girl,
threo years ago, my health was very
poor. I had leucorrhnja badly, nnd ft
terrible bearing-down pnln which
gradually grow worse, until I could do
no work. Also had headache nearly
all the time, and dizzy feelings. Slen
struatioiiB were very profuse, appear
ing every two weeks.
" I took medicine from a good doctor,
but it seemed to do no good, I wits
becoming alarmed oTer my condition,
when I read your advertisement in a
paper. 1 sent at once for a bottle of
tiydla K. Pinkham's Vogotablo Com
pound, and after tuklng two-thirds of
the bottle I fult so much better that I
send for two more. Aftor using three
bottles I felt as strong and well as any
ono.
' I think it is tho best medicine for
female weakness ever advertked, anil
recommend it to ovory lady I meot suf
fering from this trouble.
Matornity is a wonderful experience
and many women approach it wholly
unprepared. Childbirth under right
conditions need not terrify women.
The advico of Mrs. I'lnkham is freely
offered to all expectant mothers, and
her advico is beyond question tho most
valuable to bo obtained. If Mrs. Pax
ton had written to Mrs. Pinkhum be
fore confinement sho would have been
saved much suffering. Mrs. Pinkham's

New York will construct handsome
buildings at the exposition. Thirty
five states have to date decided to par
tlcipate In the exposition. In 30 of
these commissions have been appointed
and reports from agents In the field

FINANCE AND TRADE.
Commorclnl Agency Hoports Still Con-
tlnuo Kncoiii'itgliiir.
New York, March 19. TX. O. Dun &
Co.'s weekly review of trade Bays:
Neither peace nor war reports have
changed the onward current of busi
ness. Orders for more than $25,500,-
000 gold from Europe have blocked the
way toward stringency for rates In
money, and treasury receipts of about
$1,100,000 per day have kept In check
any question about the currency, while
exports of products have continued at
a rate considerably Increased, and tho
demand for products of the great In
dustries show steady expansion. Prompt
action by the senate and house has re
moved all fear of embarrassment
through conflicting purposes at Wash
ington. Tho government is making
ready without any waste of time, while
frankly assuring .everybody that It
looks for a peaceful settlement, and
hopes that Its prepe.rations may prove
unnecessary.
The backbone of the situation is tho
excess of merchandise exports, again
more than $41,000,000 In February, with
an Increase of $2,000,000 In miscellaneous
products, $2,100,000 in provisions, $4,-
500,000 In cotton and $7,000,000 in bread
stuffs compared with last year, and

gregate volume of the country's busi
ness continues sufficiently large to al
low of favorable comparisons with past
periods alike In this and In proceeding
years. Aside from a quieting In de
mand at a few leading eastern markets.
where uncertainty as to the outcome of
foreign complications Is advanced as a
reason for unwillingness to embark In
new business, the situation Is one pos
sesslng nearly all of tho favorable
features noted for some time past. The
best reports as to distribution in lead
lng lines come from the central west
and the northwest.

IT IS EASY TO TELL.
People who fail to look after their health
arc like the carienter who neglects to sharpen
his tools. People are not apt to get anxious
about their health soon enough. If you arc
"not quite well" or "half sick" have you
ever thought that your kidneys may be the
cause of your sickness ?
It is easy to tell by setting aside your urine
for twenty-four hours ; a sediment or settling
indicates an unhealthy condition of the
kidneys. When urine stains linen it is
evidence of kidney trcublc. Too frequent
desire to urinate, scanty supply, pain or dull
ache in the back is also convincing proof
that the kidneys and bladder are out of order.
There is satisfaction in knowing that the
great remedy Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Uoot, ful
fills every wish in relieving weak or diseased
kidneys and all forms of bladder and urinary
troubles. Not only does Swamp-Hoot give
new life and activity to the kidneys the cause
of trouble, but by treating the kidneys it acts
as a tonic for the entire constitution. If you
need a medicine take Swamp-Koot it cures.
Sold by druggists, price fifty cents and one
dollar, or by sending your address and the
name of this paper witli three two cent
stams to cover cost of postage on the bottle
to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Iiinghamton, N. Y.,
you may have a sample bottle of this great
discovery sent to you free by mail.
