"For three yenrs 1 was troubled with
catarrh and blood disease. I tried sev-
eral doctors and a dozen different rem-
edies but none of them did me nny
good. A friend told me of Hood's Sar-
eupiirllla. I took two bottles of this
medicine and wns as well and strong
as ever. I feel Ilka a different person
and reromrnetid Hood's to any one suf-
fering from catarrh."

T TAFT
SAYS FORTIFY
DEFENDS PLAN OF ADMINISTRA-
TION TO PROTECT PANAMA
CANAL HIS FIRM STAND.
And save your health.
New York Jan. 23. Speaking be-
fore the Pennsylvania society here
Suturday night President Taft took
a vigorous stand for the defense of
the Panama Canal at any cost. The
president ridiculed those who are op-
posing the plan of tho administration
to fortify the canal ami declared that
Iho only way to prevent trouble
over the canal Is to fortify It properly
and Insure Its protection.
"I am going to invjte your attention
to tho question now pending In con-
gress as to whether the Panama canal
ought to bo fortified. I cannot think
that any careful person will rend the
record of historical facts treaties and
acts of congress and diplomatic nego
tiations without In the slightest de
gree conceiting that the existence of
the full right of the United States to
fortify her own property on the Isth-
mus Is In the slightest doubt I ven
ture before considering the question
of the policy of fortifying the canal
to refer to the history which manes
the right Incontestible.
"Tho right of the United States to
fortify the canal and to close It
against the use of an enemy In time
of war being established what should
be Its policy? We build the canal
to help us defend the country not to
help an enemy to attack It. Even If
a certain and practical neutralization
of the canal by agreement of nil na
tions could he secured to us when en
gaged In war an enemy could then
use the canal for transit to attack us
In both oceans as we propose to use
It to defend ourselves.
"After expending $500000000 thus
to make our national defense easier.
are we to surrender half the military
vnlue of the canal by giving the bone-
fit of it to a nation seeking to destroy
us? It seems to me that the very
statement of the 'proposition carries
its refutation.
"But It Is said that we ought to de-
fend the canal by our navy. I am not
a strategist; I am not a military or
a naval expert; but It seems to me
that a navy Is for the purpose of the
defense through offensive for the pur-
pose of protection by attack and
that if we have to retain a part of
our navy in order to defend the canal
on both sides then the canal becomes
a burden and not an instrument of
defense at all.
"The canal ought to defend Itself
and we ought to have fortifications
there which will be powerful enough
to keep off the navies of any nation
that might possibly attack us.
"Then it is said that the fortifica
tions are going to cost $50000000.
This Is an error. The estimated cost
of the fortifications for the canal is
$12000000. That I submit consti-
tutes hardly more than 2 per cent of
the cost of the canal a first premium
for Insuring Its safety that Is not ex-
cessive. "It also Is said that it will cost $5-
000000 a year to maintain It. This
is also an error. I have consulted the
war department and they advise that
the additional to the annual govern-
ment cost of maintenance for fortifi-
cations and military establishment in
time of peace duo to the fortification
of the canal would not exceed halt
a million dollars an annual Insur-
ance rate after first cost of a tenth
of one per cent.
"In laying down my office I could
leave no greater claim to the grati-
tude of my countrymen than to have
secured such treaties but I cannot
permit myself In the enthusiastic de
sire to secure universal peace to blind
myself to the possibilities of war. "We
have not reachod the time when we
can count on the settlement of all In
ternatlonal controversies by the arbl
trillion of a tribunal."

New York Jan. 23. One does not
realize the excessive thinness and
suppleness of everything connected
with the wardrobe until one chances
upon a garment made several years
ago. Gradually body has been elimi
nated from materials and clumsiness
from the finish of everything in the
way of clothes until a step or too fur
ther woulnl leave inadequate protec
tlon from actual weather to eay not
a word about the very first principles
of respectability.
A little more than a decade ago
when the vogue for mannish gar
ments was being run Into the ground
by up-to-date girls and while girls
were selecting their shoes from the
boys' departments for style' sake
not for comfort one of the exclusive
custom shoe makers told one of his
young girl customers how he had soM
thin slippers to her grandmother that
she had worn with silk stockings
across Washington Square in the win-
ter. And the girl's credulity was strain-
ed nut she herself wore pumps and
silk stockings all last winter she did
go to the length of putting on two
pairs of thin silk hosiery in cold
weather for she retained even in the
thick of the present extravagant fash-
ion a glint of common sense from her
home training. And this 6eason she
has gone out In suede and velvet and
satin boots that are certainly better
suited to the house than to the street
especially In cold weather.
The trouble these days is the lack
of discrimination between idress for
indoor and outdoor use. A sharp dis-
tinction lor very taste's sake should
be made between street and house
clothes. The limp clinging robe that
is at home in stately houses is out
of place in public thoroughfares. Yet
one sees more or less faithful sen
blances of its every flay In the week.
not only in public places like the the-
ter and concert hall but even In the
very shops.

girls and New York take Chicago
girls and so on. In discuhsing the
novel plan District Attorney Pellet-
ler said:
"The one great teimirt.Uion of the
girls who are placed on .probation
is that they do not have the will
power to resist- the influence of
their chums. Young 'women after
once going astray try their best to
reform but utterly fail because of
the allurement of their bad associ-
ates. "The young women some times
try very haid to do right 'and if
they had no one to keep drawing
them back they might Ibecome 'better
women. I think it would pay differ-
ent cities to go to the exipense of
transporting their probationed girls
to other cities where these girls
would he unknown and where tbey
could work quietly toward u better
end."
Some people never put off till to-
morrow what they can overdo today.
