One Of the weekly papers recently
printed an article on "rhe Ambition
m 49,, OF Kings" and II
showed, though
N""'""' not apparently
conscious that II had done 80, that
practically the same motives inspire
kings as inspire other people. Among
them are desire for completeness aud
desire for larger resources AM
btlon Is not simply the infrmlty OF
noble minds, but IL Is the inhrmlty--
IL II be an inArmity-of all minds
The question, taus, Is not whether n
man Is ambitious, but whether his
ambition IL a noble one, and whether
he chooses honorable means to
achieve II, One that strives merely
to be the richest man In his COM
munlty must be condemned, not be-
cause he Is ambitious, but because
his aim Is low and sordid So II is
with most of the craving for power
and practically all the strife for req
ognltion by fashionable society But
the desire TO accomplish things Is to
be commended, The man who longs
to be honestly useful to his fellows
Is good citizen. Even the desire to
excel others in accomplishments, in
professional skill and In general ell
cheney Is the prerequisite to social
progress. And back of II all Is that
desire for completeness which Is said
to be so powerful with kings, The
man who finishes his work complete
ly, who writes book as though 1t
were TO be his last and the one by
which he might be judged centuries
hence, who does what he Is told to
do and u great deal more, Is an am
bilious man. The question Is one OF
ideals and tendencies, One can hard
ly pursue good ideal with too great
feryor or intensity, TO those who
may say that II is hardly necessary
to preach such gospel as this to the
men of this generation, It may be an
swcred that II Is always well to IN
sist on the necessity for honest, COM
pletc and whole-hearted work, The
corrective to the false ambitions that
we see all about us is not to decry
altogether, but to divert 1t
into right channels, and to make the
most out Of the energy that flows
from the desire to conquer or excel
Power is perhaps the one thing wnich
most successfully eludes pursuit and
which Ia most deadly when gained by
n too strenuous effort, This Is be-
cause in most such cases II Is desired
for It's own sake or for selfish pur-
poses. The men who want to use I
for the general good do not often
struggle greatly for it. The ambition
of kings Is simply the ambition OF
humanity on n larger and wider
scale.

American who promised to give $4,000

A medical writer contends that a
persons body Is his most valuable
property and often gets the worst
treatment Of all belongings "Let a
man once get the idea" he says, "ot

sonablcto suppose that he will Nt least
take as good care Of II as he does of his
cat, his hat his horse or his dog"

There Is but one True
Pyinfipk Of cure
First arrest the offending cause;
then supply the constituents to repair
the injury and waste, caused by dis
ease. This principle applies TO every
form Of disease known,
| In Chronic Diseases
so many complications arise that the
symptoms are misleading ard the
cause obscured. Hence, none but an
expert can determine the real seat OF
disease, There Is fundamental cause
for every disease, and no amount of
treatment will prove curative until
that cause 10 removed.
ByighfS Disease, Dia6etiS, DyQby,
And Fatty Degeneration are being
cured by correcting assimilation and
h secretions.
Deafness
And Fits Of long standing cured.
Cataract
And Granulatlon removed without
cutting, burning or causlics.
Diseases of Women
Of all kinds are being cured by his
rev method, when every other known
treatment had failed. Tumors well
advanced are cured without the knife
and the patient restored to health.
The knife removes only the tumor, the
cause remains, to develop 1t In some
part again, and calls for repeated OPP
eratione.

The statement that Americans
spend from $iOO,OOO,OOO to $500, 5000
annually on account of their summer
vacations Is probably not wide Of
the mark, II is interesting In so far
as II Is indicative Of the vacation or
recreation idea, People generally al,
coming to recognize that there is n
limit to physical and mental resist
ance, and that, as Longfellow so apt
ly put 1t, one must "play the part Of
an unstrung bow" The man who
