JOHN BRIGHT.

Biographical Information Not Contained
in Any Popular Encyclopedia.
John Bright was born in 1911. He
made tour of the Holy Land at the
age of twenty-four, but did not decide
to purchase it owing to the existence of
flaw in the title. He next began to
invent things. On his return from the
Orient, he discovered that what was most
needed in both Europe and America
was good, reliable disease for the use
of the better classes. The poor and
humble were well supplied, but the
rich. the aristocratic and patrcan states
men. corned heads and porkists of the
two lands languished for good. relia-
BILE disease that poor people could not
obtain. So he began to sit up nights
and perfect Bright's disease He gained
the prize at the Paris exposition and
honorable mention at the great centen-
NAL celebration at Philadelphia '.for
meritorious and effective diseases for
the better classes Since that time he
has been gratified to notice that the
very best people, both in his own land
and in this, are handling Bright's dis
ease. 1t has been kept out of the
reach Of the poor, and to die from this
ailment has been regarded as a proud
distinction.
MIR. Bright has all the time attracted
attention as a good, fluent public
speaker. and the author of a volume
called Speeches on Public Questions,
published in 1868.
Whether he succeeds in securing a
large monument or not, it is thought he

the English languish is spoken. Bright's
celebrated disease is known and re-
spected. 1t is; said that he once stated
in public speech that he cared not who
made the laws for a nation if he could
invent its diseases. Bill Nye, in Boston
