The pure, powerful vegetable Ingredients

Excessive Preparation.

It IL a good policy in undertaking a new
enterprise, to fully estimate the possible
cost. The government has over-estmated
the cost OF the war with Spain, and has
over-prepared for 1t. AT the outbreak of
the war certain senators gave high est-
mates of its money cost Senator Hale
putting himself on record with the predic-
tion that 1t would cost $500 1000, coo, and
a billion. The figures now show expenses
incurred, for the army. $500. 900, and for
the navy, $36 0dJ. 001 a total of $l1i 500, 000.-

Never before IN history was there a
case where Il defeated and captive en-

cine for stomach and liver disorders

A short time ago an article was pub

verge of closing its doors, owing to the
financial embarrassment, and should
help not come Immediately the college
would be ruined. The 0berlin cores
pondent to the Leader emphatically de-
MES the above statement, and says that
the number OF students in attendance
is greater than ever before, and the
fin .ncial condition was never more
sound than at present. Plans are in
progress for large increase of endow-
ment, to support the present work Of the
college more amply, and to make the
advances which are definitely planned.
The annual reports of the treasurer
show that the funds Of the college have
been increasing from,year to year, and
how amount to about a million dollars.
Its assets in, the form of buildings,
equipments, ETC., amount to twO-thirds
of million more. There was "a deficit
in the income and expense account for

by gifts from trustees and friends of the
