been able to take care OF itself in
any company.
The Louisiana purchase has eight
cities of over a hundred thousand
people each, of which one has over
half a million and another over a
quarter of million.
1t contains the fifth State in the
Union in population.
1t has more miles of railroad
than any country in the world out
side of the United States.
1t has the greatest extent of pro-
ductive farm land in the world.
1t has greater system of navi-
gable waterways than any other
region of equal extent outside of
Brazil.
1t has some of the worlds rich
est mines of gold, silver, copper,
lead, iron and coal.
1t is developing mighty system
of manufactures.
1t has produced in places what
some consider the finest school
system in existence.
Europe has stood in arms for
thirty years because France and
Germany cannot agree about the
ownership Of Alsace and Lorraine.
Money enough has been spent to
plate the provinces with gold. The
Louisiana purchase would make a
hundred and seventy Alsace-Lor-
raines.
In the region that Jefferson
bought for SIS, 100000 three mill
ion people can find homes in com
fort. At SO an acre, it's land
would be worth six times our pre-
sent national debt. The mere ex-
position with which one of it's cities
is to celebrate it's purchase will cost
more than we paid for the entire
domain.
Our first attempt at expansion
has been the most brilliantly sue
cessful in history. 1t is well that
it should be fittingly celebrated,
and with it the memory of the
great men who brought it about,
and who, by that act, secured to
their country the place of the first
power on earth. That the Louisi-
ana purchase has transformed the
United States from an Atlantic
coast power into continental
power is the best monument OF
Thomas Jefferson. n.--Pittsbure

The Advice Came Home to RoOst.
The president Of one of the promi-
nent railway corporations in America
was making a stirring address to an
audience Cf young men and dwelt
with particular emphasis On the neces-
sity of making good appearance.
"When you are looking for work."
he said, "be ca,yGCl that you are pre-
sentable. II "0u have only $24 in
the world, spcnd 500 for a suit of
clothes, $3.50 for a pair of shoes, so
cents for hair cut and shave. Then
walk up to the job wherever it Is and
ask for 1t like man."
This advice was greeted with great
applause, and the railway president
sat down amid a storm of cheers.
The very next morning dapper look
ing young fellow walked into the outer
Office Of the orator and, handing a note
to the clerk, said, 'Please give this to
the president" The note read as fol
lows:
Il have paid $50 for this suit of
clothes, $3.50 for pair of shoes and
80 cents for hair cut and n shave. |
have walked from Harlem, and would
like job as conductor on your road"
He got the job.

The Greatest Real Estate Deal.

The ratification of the proposed
charter amendments at the election
in St. Louis recently insured the
success of the great Louisiana Pur-
chase Exposition in 1903. This
will fittingly celebrate the most
tremendous real estate transaction
in history.
Napoleon was man of miracu-
lous mental grasp, but it is doubt
full whether even he realized all
that the Louisiana purchase was to
mean in the coming century. There
was nothing in all the preceding
annals of the world to guage it by.
With single exception there has
been nothing since.
A hundred years ago the huge
territory. nearly a million square
miles IN extent, then called Louis
lana, was practically an uninhabit-
ed wilderness. A little group of
settlcmcu.3 about New Orleans,
and IL smaller one at st. Louis, re-
presented all the foothold that
civilization had within it. To-day
it contains over fourteen million
people, living in fourteen great
States and territories.
With the single exception men
toned, there is nothing in all the
history of colonization to compare
with that record. The one parallel
case is the growth of the States be-
tween the Alleghenies and the
Mississippi.
1t took the colonies ON the
Atlantic seaboard over a hundred
years to gain a million people.
Australia started substantially
even with Louisiana a century ago;
she has less than four million in
habitants to-day.
Canada was far ahead of Louis
lana in 1903; she has little more
than a third of the population of
the Louisiana purchasessnow.
1t took England nearly fifteen
hundred years, from the landing of
Hengist and Horsa to the year
lS4l, to make the progress that
Louisiana has made in single
century.
Had the Louisiana purchase be-
come an Independent nation, it
would have ranked to-day in all
respects as first-class power. Its
population would have been less
than that of the great powers of
Europe, but its wealth, energy,
enterprise, industry and intelli-
gence would have placed it fully
abreast of them. 1t would have

Not Wanted Now.

Those able politicians who are
advocating an upheaval of the
Tariff will not find public senti-
ment with them. The people don't
want the Tariff question reopened.
They don't want the schedules re-
vised. They don't want the pres
ent status upset. Without regard
to politics we believe the sentiment
of the country is in favor Of letting
things alone at this time. The peo-
pie are prosperous. Our trade at
home and abroad was never better.
Our markets were never so great,
nor the promise of the future SO
fiattering. Why then disturb the
Tariff? Why reopen a business
question at a dangerous time ?
Why run the risk of losing, even
for a little while, the prosperity
and confidence which now reigns
all over the land? The Tariff
thinkers are not wanted now. Let
them come in when something
breaks, when the machinery goes
wrong, Wheeling (W. Va News.

The Scranton Republican point
edly illustrates the difference be-
tween Republican and Democratic
theories of government by showing
that under the administration of
President Cleveland the principal
difficulty was in trying to get rid of
a deficit, while under the last and
present administrations the chief
problem has been what to do with
the surplus.

Health and Beauty.

A poor complexion is usually the result
of torpid liver or irregular action of the
bowels. Unless natures refuse is corried
off it will surely cause impure blood.
Pimples, boils and other eruptions fol-
low. This is natures method of throw.
ing off the poisons which the bowels fail
ed to remove. DeWitt's Little Early
Risers are world famous for remedying
this condition. They stimulate the liver
and promote regular and healthy action
of the bowels but never cause gnping,
cramps or distress. Safe pills. r. c..

METHODS OF SUICIDE.

How Desperate Persons Adopt Pre-
vailing Styles of Destruction.
"The remarkable methods several sui
cides have adopted in this city recently
call attention to the fact that methods
Of self destruction are largely matters
Of SUGGESTION said a doctor. when
a a gets in that condition where he
wants to die, he has little inventive
ability and adopts the method that has
been brought to his mind. You will no.
tice that after n person kills himself
with acid there follows a long list Of
acid suicides. 1t is the same with any
unusual method. One person gets up
an original way, and that inspires the
next one to try his hand until we have
a whole series of such grewsome low
elites.
II have proved this theory. Several
years ago I was discussing this feature
Of suicide with several friends, includ-
ing the coroner They ridiculed my
theory. I offered to prove it It hap
pened that shooting and hanging were
popular just then. I wrote an article
for a newspaper on the horrors of
strangulation and pistol wounds and
explained the ease with which one
could kill himself with prussic acid.
Death from prussic acid, you know, is
absolutely instantaneous and, many be-
lieve, painless. There had not been q
suicide with this acid for more than q
year, but within a week after the arti-
Gle was published there were four, and
n of the u~nfortunates had clippings
OF my article in his pocket.
"Of course 1 was accused of killing
these four by suggestion, but I was
eve arrested and do not feel guilty,
for when once a person has decided to
kill himself the method is a slight mat
ter. No person in his right mind will
commit suicide. We all know In ou1
sane moments Of easy ways to end life,
but when in the suicidal frame Of mind
nature seems to rob US of our reason in
this direction, as if in a desperate hope
of preventing the sacriice."-New York
