Senor Quesada, Cuban Minister to the United States, is an orator born, In an article in The Outlook for July, 1899, by George Kennan, who heard Quesada speak at the Esteban Theater, Matanzas, Cuba, he said: “I have seen many aud- fences under the spell of eloquent speech and in the grip of strong emotional ex- . eitement; but I have rarely witnessed such a scene as at the close of Quesada’s eulogy upon the dead patriot, Marti.” Ina letter to The Peruna Medicine Com- pany, written from Washington, D, C., Senor Quesada says: *“‘Peruna I can recommend as a very good medi- cine. It is an excellent strengthening tonic, and it is also an efficacious cure for the almost universal complaint of catarrh.’’---Gonzalo De Quesada. $$ ———_—__ In hot countries as well as cold coun-; where asastandard remedy for catarrh tries catarrh is an omnipresent scourge. | in ali forms, Catarrh afflicts the oldand the young,| Mr. Theodore Lang, Dalton, Ga., form- the rich and the poor, the lowly andj erly Commander of the G.A.R, of the the famous, State of Maryland, writes: Nearly everybody hascatarrh atsome| “It is a special pleasure tome to rec- time in life.

The statistics were gathered by C. R, Erwin, president of the advertis- ing agency af Lord & Thomas, who for a number of years has co!lected figures to determine the pulse of the business of the country. Believing that the most accurate information could be obtained by going back to the soll itself, figuratively speaking, he has made it a practice to seek his information from the farmers and stock raisers themselves and from the editors of the farm publications h throughout the country. From east and west, north and south, the most optimistic and healthy reports havecome back. Not a publisher or editor sent tn a gloomy response to the request of Mr. Erwin, and a survey of the re- ports of actual cropconditions shows that the actual prosperity of the nation really is remarkable.
