..DO It Today"

The time-worn injunction, "Never put
off It'll tomorrow what you can do today"
is now generally presented in this form {:
"Do it today" That is the terse advice
we want to give you about that hacking
cough or demoralizing cold with which
you have been struggling for several
days, perhaps weeks. Take some reliable
remedy for it ToDAY-and let that rem
edy be DIR. Botchee's German Syrup,
which has been in use for over thirty
five years. A few doses of it will I'M
doubtedly relieve your cough or cold,
and it's continued use for a few days will
cure you completely. No matter how
deep-seated your cough, even if dread
consumption has attacked your lungs,
German Syrup will surely effect a cure
as it has done before in thousands of ap-
parently hopeless cases of lung trouble.

motherhood. Used throughout pregnancy

over the parts so severely taxed, and being
absorbed lubricates all the muscles.

THE PASSING OF THE CHINESE.
How Nature is Solving the Problem Of
the "Yellow Peril"

From the Worlds Work.
In fifty years--perhaps less than fifty, If
the present laws remain in effect and are
rigidly executed-the Chinese population of
the United States will become practically
extinct. From 1890 to 1900 they fell away
from 12677S to $3.50, decrease of nearly
5000, or more than per cent In the fiscal
year ended June 80, 1903 more than 1000
voluntarily left the port of San Francisco
for the land of their birth, the total de-
ported and returning voluntarily being
5000. A very large majority of these Chi
namen were advanced in years and went
home to die.
A generation ago there were in San Fran
cisco from thirty to forty thousand China
men The Chinese consul general there told
me that counting men, women and chill
dren, there are now not 10000 The same
proportionate decrease is seen in other
places. 1t should be borne in mind that the
total number of Chinese now in the United
States includes 26,767 in Hawaii and Lilo
in Alaska, so that at the beginning of this
decennial period there were living in the
United States proper only 1900. A genera
ton ago there were at least 10000.
According to the most liberal estimate
there are not more than $50 legal Chinese
wives in San Francisco. But the number
OF Chinese women is estimated at between
l. 600 and 1000. OF such female children as
are born to the lowest class a large proper
ton are sold for immoral purposes by their
sibilities of an increased population.
The main adult population is male; is I'M
married, or. at least. wifeiess in America,
and is rapidly approaching old age. Thus
by 1880 or 1910 the main Chinese life in
America will have become extinct.
