The name of ex-Governor Pnttison is prominently mentioned in connec tion with the Democratic nomination for President. Why not? Aguinaldo'S appeal to the Powers will hardly have the desired effect. He should have addressed his "note" to Uryan and other American sym pathizers. Latest news from the ex-Congress man: "I have heen politically ship wrecked, quarantined, and flred from a catapult, but you can't lose mo." Referred to Major Finney. Thk Hazleton Standard Is again wrong. "We made no attempt to be little our contemporary, but simply drew its attention to the fact that the Hazleton papers wore at yarlance in their views as to the condition of tho workingmen in that region. And the Standard has presented no facts to show that its contention is the cor rect one. The Hkhaxd, in unison with all other newspapers in the an thracite region, would gladly welcomo a change in the "sliding scale as now operated," aud will advocate any movement inaugurated by the Senti nel to remedy tlie evil. What say our friends at Hazleton ? Many persons question whether the enormous advertisements put forth by tho big department stores in large cities really pay their cost. If re turns are to be measured by actual sales of goods advertised.it may safely be stated that such advertisements rarely pay. Their purpose is to bring people into the store, where other goods displayed and skillful salesmen will do the rest. Tho item which brought the customer to the store may be only a spool of thread or a cake of soap at half price, but the chances are against the customer leaving the store without making other purchases. The same principle applies to mail-order adyertising. The profits from the direct sales of the goods advertised in any adver tisement seldom pay its cost. The profit must come from subsequent sales, and this depends upon skillful following up of the Inquiry the ad vertisement brings. Give the Credit Due. An onthusiastio welcome has greeted tho Pennsylvania regiment, just returned from tho Philippines, as it paraded through the streets of San Francisco, savs tlie St. Louis Globe-Democrat. "The Pennsyl vanians are a sturdy-looking lot," says a dispatch, and "their spick and span appearance commanded great attention." Three volunteer regi ments from Manila have reached San Francisco to be mustered out. The Oregon regiment brought back over 1000 men. The Nebraskans report a total loss of sixty-two men. The Penhsylvanians lost an aggre gate of only twenty-four men. Here are three regiments which after a year's service, largely on the firing line in Luzon and in the trenches, re turn to their homes with a combined mortality of less than 130. All saw mora or less hard fighting and march ing. It wag the Pennsylvanians who stood the brunt of a Spanish night sortie during a storm. Tlie Nebras kans and Oregbnians were in the thick of the engagements reaching from Manila to Malolos and San Fernando, and passed through sev eral ugly ambuscades. But they are back home looking well and with ranks but little reduced when com parison is made with former wars. In the face of figures so significant it is useless to say that these regfr juents huvo not been intelligently handled and well cared for. They are healthy, make a fine appearance on parade and their mortality list isH small. They have worked steadily, fought bravely and seen some hard ships, but all thisls in tlie line of a soldier's duty. Those who do not count upon such an experience should not enter the service. Many a regi ment in the civil war returned with Jess than 200 men. The regular army in that struggle wus literally shot out of existence. When the "yellow" Interviewers circulate in these returning regiments to oollect material to baok up the claim that the war is a failure the men in tho ranks might well point to their long line tp Bhow hoy well their comfort and health bus been guarded, securing them the vantage ground in (Iglitlng nnd preserved theiu from disaster.

Last November Mr. Joseph James, painter, of 325 W. Pearl St., Indianapo lis, Ind., was at death's door with quick consumption. Wasted to 'a skeleton; his lungs a mass of ulceration; his death was hourly awaited by his doctor and family. He was kept in a constant stupor with opium. A irieud, thinking to relieve his terrible cough, gave him a bottle of Brazilian Balm. Seeing its wonderful effect, the doctor advised its continued use. Mr. James soon after dismissed his- doctor, and depended on the Balm aloue. His recovery was rapid and complete, and in February he returned to work. His lungs are sound, and his weight greater than at any time in his life. His recovery is regarded as almost a miracle. COMMA D4CILI.ES. In consumption beware of cough mix tures and prescriptions that contain opium. Opium paralizes the nerves, and gives the comma bacillus a good chance to destrov the lungs. It is always fatal. Brazilian Balm does not contain a trace ot any opiate, Dut stimu lates the nerves with new life and power, destroys the microbe, and restores all that is left of the diseased lungs to a sound and healthy state which no other remedy has ever been known to accom plish.
