House of Represents* has decided to th a South African Republic. In view of thb fact, Secretary Hay refuses to discuss the latest charge brought agaist the Administration both by Herr Wessels in London and by Mr. Macrum in thp United States, who assert positively that a peace conference was held at Bloemfontein, before the begining of the war, at which the Unitea States representatives were present as well as representatives of President Kruger and Steyn. At the direct request of these last, Con-sul-General Stowe cabled to the State Department, begging it, in the name of the two presidents, to “intercede” with Great Britain to prevent her making war against them, and practically offering to agree to any terms that President McKinley might think just. Remember, thb was before the war began, when a word from the President might have prevented the frightful bloodshed that has occurred. But McKinley feared too much to offend hb ally and contemptuously ignored the request of the two presidents, who did not give up hope of hb mediation until 48 hours before the war began.

It is very hard to stand idly by and see our dear ones suffer while awaiting of the doctor. An Albany (N. Y.) dairyman call-, ed at a drug store there for a doctor to come and see'his sick child, then very sick with croup. Not finding the doctor in, he left word for him to come at once on his return. He also bought a bottle of Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy, which he hoped would give some relief until the doctor should arrive. In a few hours he returned, saying the doctor nee I Dot come, as the child was much better. The druggist, Mr. Otto Scholz, says the family has since recommended Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy to their neighbors and friends until he has a constant demand for it from that part of the country. For Sale by Hunt Bros. Druggists.
