health because it is the outward man

woman is always attractive, bright

the blood is impure, moroseness, bad
temper and sallow complexion tells
the tale OF sickness. all too plainly.
And women to-day know there is no
beauty without health. Wine of Car

attractiveness by making strong and
healthy those organs which make her

in a month your friends will hardly

~ Hung Chang.

Earl Ii Hung Chang was one Of the
most noted statesmen China has had
for hundreds Of years. He became
widely known to foreign diplomats
during the settlement OF the claims
growing out Of the Japanese war. and
later. when the Boxers made war upon
the legations at Pekin and the mis-
sionaries in the northern provinces.
He was immensely wealthy, being rated
at one time as the richest man Ia the
world. estimates of his wealth running
from one hun1red to four hundred mil
lions Of dollars. He was always con.
sidered progressive Chinaman. as he
encouraged opening the ports Of China
to foreign commerce, and in his capac-
ity as chief adviser Of the emperor and
empress dowager. exerted great innu-
ence In diplomatic channels.
Several times he occupied the posi-
tion In China corresponding to that Of
prime minister In other monarchies,
Tut the present troubles with European
and American nations caused changes.
and he was superseded. Recently the
aged man began to assume his old time
position. and was one Of the commits
sioners with whom foreign nations
dealt In settling indemnity and other
matters. About three years ago he VI
tied the United States, accompanied py
large retinue. He was lionized, mol
only by the Chinese. but by the peopls
OF the cities he visited.
