Beyond that period, howrvpr, there are
monetary possibilities which g 111 need t o
be watched. There are evident symptoms
that the supply of circulation is falling
short of the requirementsour largely
increased business. I-t is true, there has
been an Increase of the money in actual
circulation; the amount having risen
from tl.7S4.000.000 on April L-t 1&«. to ti,
92T.MO.OOO on (he flrst of this month.—a

SINGULAR STATEMENT.
From Mre. Rank to Mrs. Pink ham.
The following letter to Mrs. Pink-
hatn from Mrs. M. KaNl. No. I..1M
Kiiat Susquehanna Ave.. Philadelphia,
Pa., is a re:narkable statement of re«
lief from utter discouragement. Shs
ftftjra:
*' I never can And wonls with which
to thank you for what Lvdia K. Pink-
ham s Vegetable Compound has dono
for me.
'• Some years ago I had womb trouble
and doctored for a long time, not see-
ing any improvement. At times I
would feel well enough, and other
times was miserable. So it went on
until last October, I felt something
terrible creeping over me, I knew not
what, but kept getting worse. I can
hardly explain my feelings at that
ti Tic. I was so deprevsed in spirits
that I did not wish to live, although I
hud everything to live for. Had hys-
teria, was very nervous; could not
sleep ami was not safe to left
alone.
Indeed, I thought I would lose my
mind. No one knows what I endured
•• 1 continued this way until the last
of February, when I saw in a paper a
testimonial of a lady whose case was
similar to mine, and who had been
cured by Lvdia E. Pinkham's Vegeta-
ble Compound. I determined to trv it,
and felt better after the first dose. I
continued taking it. and to-day am %
well woman, an l can say from my
heart. * Thank God for such a medi-
cine.*"

that the Indian question is rapidly set-

"f the Creek population have already ap-

the remainder will be forced to do so as

reason. Over in the Cherokee nation the

Washington, April 17—(Special) A
careful inspection of tn* comparative
statement of the government receipts

unterestlug and pregnant facts relating
to the moneycos t of tarrying on a war.
[of course, this is only one of the consid-
erations Involved, but it i* an import-
ane one. The facts culled from the st.ue
men;, moreover only indicate what the
total money cost will be For example,

been paid ou; for war. that amount
'may not be properly charge ble to war
expenses, in view of the :mmense com-
mercial and other advantages to be de-
rived by the United States from this
■expendutire Again some of the other
war expenditures will result in a per-
manent benefit to this country, and
were such as might properly and prof-
itably have been made even If the Unit-
ed 8ta:es had been at peacs with the
world. The war with Spain, happily,
was of short duration, but is has been
a costly one. because when it began, ths
United States was by no means prepared
for it and in no case that could arise,
would the maxim "Haste makes waste"
be more applicable. But this .« an old
story. All wars are wasteful to a degree
Iboth of money and human life.
Thus far all the war expenditures have
ibeen the dire t result of the war with
' Spain, and those which will have to be

of silence, the nc-ijrhbor heard the sound
of boxes, shoes and other articles whiz-

wall as the post office man continued
his mad search for his night shirt. Mrs.

'Jripating the destruction of property

not speedily soothed, she called upstairs
sweetly: "Why don't you get one of

Lrngth of the Iili*«il Foot.
A London anatomist is authority for
the statement that the ideal foot should
be the length of the ulna, a bone in the
forearm, which extends from a pro-
tuberance in the outer portion of the
wrist to the elbow. Of coix-se, the ulna
is longer in tall people, and to be grace-
ful the foot should l>e also. Many peo-
ple may be surprised that the foot
should be as long as the forearm, and
might be inclined to dispute the f^ct
unless proved by demonstration. But

MEXICO'S QUEEREST CITY.
Eight miles due east over the moun-
tains from Catorce station, on the
Mexican National railroad, is the city
of that name, a city along whose steep,
winding streets neither wagon nor
cart, neither stage nor bus, nor any
other wheeled vehicle was ever known
to pass, although it has often boasted
of a population of 40,COO souls.
The city takes its name from once '
beiug the stronghold and property of
a band cf 14 of the most daring, despcr- i
ate, dangerous and successful robbers ,
that ever laid tribute on roads c f Mex- j
ico. They discovered, and for many
years worked, the rich deposits of sil- j
ver that abound in this entire section
of the country—deposits, the value of
which, if current reports be true, for
hundreds of years outrivaled the myth-
ical riches related of Ophir. Strange to
relate, every piece of machinery, every
pound of freight, and every passenger
to and from Catojee is transported to-
day. as ior cenvanes past, either on taa
backs of men or mules.
Catorce is one of tbe most interesting
places in Mexico. Here are found the
customs of Mexico in«their purity, ur-
affected by the influence of the
6tranger. Difficult of access, the town
can be- reached only by horseback or on
foot. Catorce has seldom been visited
by any except those making businesi
trips. Tl.e ride up the mountains into
the town is something, once accom-
plished, always to be remembered.part-
ly from its element of personal peril
but more because of the beauty ot tLe
landscape encountered at every turn.
Glancing down, as you rear your jour*
ney's end. you catch a gleam of the
white walls of Los Catbrce outlir.ej
against, the green of the mountain side.
Thousands of feet below shimmer the
waters of a mountain stream. The
shifting coloring of the mountains as
light ami shade*chase eoeh oUter ver
their rugged expar.se. th • browr.sand
greens of the valley below, ant! the hills
it: the hazy distance are "beautiful ex-
ceedingly."
The Heal de Catorce is built on the
side of a ravine near the top of the
range, and has a varying population of
8,OOo to 40,000, as the mines are paying
well or poorly. Here are found a'i vari-
eties of silver ore from carbonates to
refractory ore, assaying $15,000 to the
ton. Catorce has a fine cathedral, rich-
ly decorated, and a pretty plaza, the
only level spot in the place. To use a
railroad phrase, it is a combination of
cut and fill, so that to tumble into it on
one tide and out the other would Fe
extremely disastrous. The streets aro
neatly paved, and run up and down
hill, many of them at an angle cf 4S ?e-
grees. Altogether this is one of the
