1t is just about as hard to induce a
confirmed invalid, especially one suffer-
ing with weakness of the lungs. to take
the first step to health. There is a laclI
OF confidence, and perhaps a crushing
experience of a former failure which
depresses and discourages the sufferer.
In spite of doubts and fears you will
take the first step to health when you
take the first dose of DIR. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery. It never fails to
help: In ninety-eight cases out of one
hundred it never fails to cure. Never
mind about the symptoms. Obstinate
cough, bleeding of the lungs, splitting of
blood, emaciation, night-sweats, condi-
tions which if neglected or unskillfully
treated terminate in consumption, have
all been perfectly and permanently cured
by Golden Medical Discovery"
Sick persons are invited to consult DIR.
r. V. Pierce by letter, absolutely without
fee or charge. Every letter is regarded
as sacredly confidential. Each answer Is
mailed in plain envelope. Address DIR.

q. ,,orth while TO continue his efforts to gain

Greater than that of many firms who have
soucbt South American trade with no adequate
attention to its requirements as to style ana
packing. The frequent complaint IS that we
will NOT nut up our goods in the form neces-
sary for easy transportation there. In the ei'o
of files and some other small hardware we pe'
lIeve our exporters have made reputation Ior
hacking goods better than the Germans or Eng
i,eh for handling in small quantities or preser
vat,on on the shelves Of retail dealers. bu'
this Is an exception to the rule.
American merchants now that they are
aroused 10 the value Of export trade as never
before. ought to furnish half at least Oh the
,,ooas taken by South American States from
foreign countries. They can DO 1t II they VIII
secure good steamship communication ana es-
toh,,sh convenient banking relations ana study

rho home market They may think the last
ponoed effort hardly worth while. Perhaps II
ros not when they had all they could do TO
make on established home patterns what was
talen for home consumption, and found new
designs for small quantities Improbable. But
our manufactures are now expanding beyond
the needs of our own people, and the foreign
n,orkot ,s TO be more and more valuable. The
fret new designs may not pay, but If regu-
lar trade can be established IN them large
pro6ts can be reaped. There can be no doubt
that the United States is TO be one of the great
manufacturing nations as England Is now, and
II IS time we took steps to supply our natural
markets. which we have so long neglected.

NEGLECTED. MARKETS.

The June Summary Of Commerce and
Finance" which has just been issued by the
Government, enforces in an emphatic way the
remarks which The Tribune made few days
ago concerning our neglect OF the South Ameri-
can trade. The statistics show that while we
are large importers from the countries south
Of us we have IN many Of them only trifing
export business. While we supply British
North America with 80 per cent Of its imports,
the Mexlcans take only ~ per cent Of theirs
from us. That is, of course, accounted for
largely by difference Of language and customs.
The Spanish American will naturally seek else
where than among Anglo Saxons many more
articles than an Anglo-Saxon would. But con-
ceding the 10 per cent as fair handicap u
trade between races, what must we conclude
from the statistics OF other Spanish-Amercan
States? Race differences will not account for
the fact that only 81 per cent Of the Central
American imports are from the United States
when a neghboring Spanish speaking people
takes 10 per cent. Colombia takes 80 per cent,
while equally accessible Venezuela takes only
p per cent. We are one Of Brazifs best Gus
toners. but Brazil buys in return only II per
cent of Its imports here while Argentina,
which sends us wool and hides in immense
imports from our market.
Race prejudice does not explain this, but lack
Of attention on the part OF our merchants TO
their future interests does. We cannot hope
to sell goods II we will not make what Gus
toner wants to buy. He will go somewhere
else and In the case Of the South American
he has done So Then. too. we have neglected
TO provide means Of access to South American
markets Every time any wideawake states
man has attempted to do II he has been de-
nounced as a rascal and lingo, and our manu-
facturers have been told that the South Amerl
cans were lot OF semi barbarians whose trade
was not worth the establishment OF a steam
ship line The result has been to leave Eu-
ropean lines a monopoly OF the carrying trade
and consequent control Of the markets. We
have seen Brazilians who wanted to come here
cross the ocean TO Europe and then come back
an the most convenient route. No wonder they
did most of their buying In Europe and let the
United States take their coffee and get II home
as best II could.
