WASHINGTON, April 14.—President Roosevelt to-day sent a spe- cial message to Congress, urging the building of four new battle-ships of the largest and most approved type at once. The arguments of the President to impress his insistence on this Britain, as having the naval policy to be emulated. The result of the last Hague conference made it plain that the, nations would not for some time, if ever, agree on a plan of limitation | of naval armament. Arbitration, the President holds, cannot be relied upon as an effective remedy, though it should be utilized to its fullest | extent. | Disclaiming any intention on the part of the United States ever to engage in a war ot conquest, the President mad@it plain that this coun- | try could ill afford to relapse into a place where insult would have to be borne in silence. “Let me again urge upon the Con- Istructed, of a size of armament which gress,” says the President, “the need idoubles, or more probably trebles, of providing for four battle-ships of the their effectiveness.” v best and most advanced type at thie “Every other great naval nation has session.

S. e OF CATARRH Even in its early stages Catarrh is a most distressing ailment, caused by the stuffy feeling in the head, ringing noises in the ears, watery eyes, difficult breathing, continual ‘hawking and spitting,’’ etc., but when the blood becomes thoroughly saturated with the impurities which produce the disease it becomes a'serious and often dangerous disorder, Then the | bronchial tubes are attacked, the bladder and kidneys diseased, and often the lungs become affected by the constant passage of papi blood through them and Catarrh terminates in Consumption. The impurities and | poisons in the blood which produce Catarrh can never be removed through the use of sprays, inhalations, washes, etc, Such treatment cannot reach the real cause, and their use alone should never be depended on to cure the disease, S. S,S, cures Catarrh by cleansing the blood of all impure catarrhal matter. It goes down and attacks the disease at its head, in the circulation, and removes every trace of the impurity that is causing the trouble, Then as rich, purified blood is carried to all parts of the system the symptoms gradually leave, the health is improved, and S. S. 8, makes a permanent cure of the trouble. Special book on Catarrh and any medical advice desired sent free to all who write.
