Wonderful People.

''The Jew is the miracle of histo-
ry," When Samuel Taylor Coleridge
was discussing with Jew the mean
ing of the psalms which Christians
regard Messianlc, his opponent de-
MED that any part of the Old Testa-
ment had any relation to Jesus of
Nazareth.
''Do you mean to say" replied Cole
ridge, "that all of your prophets
ignored the most momentous fact in
the history of their own people?" 1t
is the fashion of the day to hold that
the history of the Jew is wholly free
from supernatural interpretations:
that he is simply a natural product
of a natural process. But no other
nation ever revealed such an inde-
structible life, such irrepressible en-
ergy, such triumph over powers
which have ground other races to
powder. Without a home for nearly
nineteen centuries, the Jew is today
the most important international
factor as relzted to the greatest ot
Christian n states. Oriental as he is
he controls the treasures of half oi
the Christian nations and sways theil
press. After long centuries of i'm
prisonment in the ghetto he comes
forth to dominate the courts of Chris
tian kings. There is not in Athens {
Greek, or in Rome a Latin. who shows
to us the lineaments of the rae {
which once ruled the world. But the
Jew who lives in the same block will
us possesses the features which are
chiseled upon the monuments o.
Egypt and Assyria. If God did mo-
deal with this family of Abraham a
with no other, whence comes its ex
ceptional history? AS a race it il
more numerous than before it's dis
lpersion. 1t is richer than it was in th'
days of Solomon. If we we're not t
believe that it had an exceptiona
destiny, as foretold in the Old Testa
ment, we would have grounds 70
such belief in its exceptional histor
and its exceptional standing.-Th

Ninety-Eight Per Cent.

There is n fascination about big profits to a
business man. But the conservative and eau
tious trader prefers to have the lesser per
cent OF interest and the larger per cent. of
safety In his investment. There is no busi-
ness man who would not consider IL a sound
proposition TO invest in enterprise in
which absolute loss was impossible and which
offered ninety-eight chances In n hundred of
a rich profit. The statistics OF cures effected
by DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
show that ninety-eig per cent of cases of
weak lungs" eau be absolutely cured. Al
most II not all forms Of physical weakness
may be traced to starvation. Starvation saps
the strength. The body is Just as much starry
ed when the stomach cannot extract nutrition
from the food it receives when there is no
food. Weak lungs" bronchial affections,
obstinate coughs, call for nourishment
Golden Medical Discovery supplies that
nourishment In Its most condensed and as

strong. by strengthening the stomach and
organs OF digestion which digest and disfri-
butte the food. and by increasing the supply
