EIGHTY MILLION POPULATION.
More People Than Any Other Nation
Except China and Russia.

Except China and Russia.
1t is only by association and COM
parison that we can grasp the dimen-
sions represented by the s0.0O0,OOO
population which the census bureau at
Washington estimated were in the
United States i'm 1903. This is more
people than are in any other nation
in the world except China with its
4OO,OOO,OO0 and Russia with its $780,
100000 Computed on the capacity of
its units this SO.OO0,0OO stands for an
UNNECESSARILY greater productive value
than does China's or Russia's total,
according TO Leslie's Weekly.
When Alexander of Macedon. I'm the
middle OF Asia, was weeping because
there were no more earths for him to
conquer he had fewer subjects than
the United States of 1904 has sover-
eigns. Under Caesars eagles. when
Rome ruled the world, were less people
than are under the stars and stripes in
the days of Theodore Roosevelt.
With seven per cent of the worlds
land area and five per cent of it's popu-
lation the United States has twenty
FIVE per cent of the worlds wealth.
The value of the United States prop
erty. real and personal. i'm 1900 was
S94 ,OOO,OOO,OOO. as compared with 500
0OO,OOO,OO0 for Great Britain and Ire
land. $4S,0OO,OOOOOO for France. $45,-
OOO,OOO,0O0 for Germany, So. 0OO. O00,-
coo for Russia. Sd. 100000 for Aus
tria Hungary, $4,000. 100000 for Italy
and $4,000. 100000 for Spain. More
-over, the United States lead of all
the other nations In wealth is increas-
ing faster than is her preponderance
over them ALL except Russia and China.
in population.
Franklin told the British parlia ment
just before the revolution that the
population of the thirteen American
colonies was doubling every twenty
five years. The gain is slightly less
than that now, though it is greater
than that of any other nation. Through
natural increase, immigration and an
nexations the population of the Unit
ed States multiplied fifteen times be-
tween 1900 and 1900, while it multi
piled 1O5 times in those hundred years
in wealth.
Without allowing for increase In ter.
ritory, but keeping the diminishing
ratio Of growth in mind, our 1900. 600
population of 1900 will, there is good
reason to believe, be 15O.OOO.OOO in
1890, 3OO,OOO,0OO in 1870 and 800, 900
600 by the year 1000 while the ag-
gregate of its wealth in the last ma med
year will be up in the dizzy heights
of mathematics.
Nothing in the Arabian tales is so
marvellous as is the expansion in pop
ulation, wealth and power of the Uni
ted States.

Why Women's Teeth Crumble.

1t is estimated by surgeon dentist
who caters to the wealthiest families
in the fashionable world that fully 60
have reached the age Of Mrs. Hermann
Oelrichs wear false teeth. He saws
their teeth begin to ache and crumble
soon after 35. whereas the average
man in the same station i'm life ma in
tains his dental integrity until he is
past 60. Sweetmeats are put down as
the principal cause for the early decay
of the teeth Of womenonot because
there is any effect on the protecting
enamel by actual contact with the
saccharine substance, but because OF
the creation of an acid condition in
the stomach, which appears to have
a corrosive effect OH the outer hard
case of the teeth. Men do not eat
much candy-smOkers especially-and
they have almost enough tooth strength
to bite a tenpenny nail in half.
This same dentist. I'm common with
many of his fellows i'm the profession,
has discovered 1t is possible to fill cav
tiles In the human tooth with sub
stance far more enduring than gold,
and absolutely to retard disintegration.
Gold has been the favorite filling"
for years because of It's non -corrOsive
qualities. A cement came into vogue
about fifteen years ago, but ii pos
sessed no lasting qualities, and its use
was only a temporary expedient. The
new filling Is of porcelain hardness,
and can be tinted to the exact color of
the tooth-sO perfect in resemblance
that IL the operator is skillful a pow
erful magnlfying glass is necessary to
detect its presence. The operation Is
an extremely delicate one. The small
er the cavity the more difficult the
filing The substance Is not a pro-
prietary article, but can be manufac-
tured by any dentist who has a bake
oven and who has been taught the
proper proportions of the ingredients.
Once set, ii will outlast the natural
enamel itself.-New York Progress.

Sedgwick, Ark, July 1.-The case
of W. S. Taylor's little son is looked
upon by those interested in medical
matters as one of the most wonderful
ON record. In this connection his
father makes the following statement:
Last September, my little hoy had
Dropsy; his feet and limbs were swol-

walk nor put his shoes on. The treat
ment that the doctors were giving him
seemed to do him no goodNan two or

the country told me he would not get
better. | stopped their medicine and
at once sent for Dodd's Kidney Pills.

the end of the eighth day the swelling
was all gone, but to give the medicine
justice, gave him eleven more pills.

The parade of the Norris & Rowe new
and greater shows this season promises
to be an event of more than ordinary in
terest. The Shows have grown SO enor-
mously that the army of acrobats, tum-
blers, clowns, gymnasts, athletes, equil-
ibrists and riders, combined with the
congress of marvelously trained animals,
makes almost city in itself under the
enormous new tents which houses this
really wonderful organization known as
the New Norris & Rowe Greater Shows.
The costumes for this parade were made
especially for it and we are assured that
no other attraction has ever gone to SO
great an expense in this matter, however
it is simply matter of personal pride
with Norris & Rowe to have the best and
most expensive street display ever ex-
hibited in this section. Dozens of new
wagons span, new, and in all the
brilliancy of red and gold paint; dozens
of rare and wild beasts, elephants, tigers,
lions, tapirs. etc. Hundred of educated
ponies and horses in ali the glory of gay
trappings, make yefftable feast of color
for the eye and spectacular parade
which win be long remembered as one
of the best features of the modern big
circus. Norris & Rowe will exhibit here

Goethe's Faust.

1t is saying good deal to al
lege that Geothe's Faust stands
ahead of any of Shakespeare S
plays, and yet this is exactly the
position accorded it by the most
eminent literary critics. 1t is
Justly entitled to be called the
greatest of all dramas.
1t is a play that depicts a hui
man soul tormented by all that
affects mankind; shaken by all
that disturbs it and made happy
by all that it desires. It's plot is
simple but character is sketched
in every line; each line is made
to stand for eternity and the
poem has entered as a whole into
the mind and thought of modern
Germany.
Because of its simplicity it is
we'll adapted to stage production,
not requiring the extraordinary
talent necessary to properly rep
resent a Shakesperean drama,
but it is one that admits of the
use of extravagant scenery and
scenic effects.
1t will be presented for the first
time in Corvallis on Saturday
evening at the Opera House by
the Palmer Company, who carry
their own special scenery for the
entire four acts, and appliances
for producing the light effects
necessary to the production.
The Company carry their own
band and orchestra and will give
a concert on Main street at 3 p.
m. Tickets on sale at Graham
& Wortham's. Popular prices.
