and the servants bowed low to the old
man and called him Your 'ighness,' and
that settled the old pickle person, and he
fell into the trap of building towrhouse
in London.
"Then he went home and made some
more pickles, and the daughter cabled
him 70 come right over, as they had been
invited to entertain the king and lot of
other face cards in the pack. And the
old man thought it would be great to get
in the king row himself, so he shoyeled
lot of big bills into some packing
trunks and went over to fix up for the
king. The castle had to be redecorated
for about six miles, up one corridor ard
down the other, but Old Pickles stood
the raise, because he thought it would
be worth the money to be on terms of in
timacy with aking.
@Then when it was all ready, and the
old man was going to stand at the front
door and welcome the king, they made
him go to his room, back about half
mile in the rear of the castle, and for
TWO WEEKS Olu I1ChlCS udu Ills AcdlS
brought to his room, and when it was
over, and his sentence had expired, he
was let out, and all he saw of the grand
entertainment to the crowned heads was
a ravine full of empty wine bottles, a
case of jimjams for son-in-law, a case
of nervous prostration for a daughter,
and hydrophobia for himself. My old
pickle friend has got, at this date, three
million good pickle dollars invested in
your id island, and all he has to show
for it is sick daughter, neglected by
a featherhead of husband, who will
only speak to old pickles when he wants
more money, and grandchild that may
die teething at any time. You are a
nice lot of ducks to talk to me about
your English society being better than
our American civilization. You get, -

cause don't want one of those crooked
sabers run into me and turned around
like a corkscrew Dad says | can stay
in a harem while he goes to the noun
tains with the bandits, and don't know
as care, as they say harem is the most
interesting place in Turkey. You know
the pictures we have studied IN the OLD
grocery, where whole bunch of beau
tiful women are practicing useing soap
in a marble bath.
Well. don't you say anything to ma
about it, but dad has got his foot in II
clear up to the top button. 1t isn't any
thing scandalous, though there is a
woman at the bottom Oft. You see, We
used to know girl that left home to go
out into the world and earn her own liv-
ing. She elocuted some at private par
ties and sanitariums, to entertain peo-
pie that were daffy, and were on the
verge of getting permanent bats in their
belfry. and after few years she got on
the stage. and made a bunch of money,
and went abroad. And then she haG
married a titled person, and everybody
supposed she was duchess, or count
ess, and ma wanted us to inquire about
her when we got over here. Ma didn't
want us to go and hunt her up to board
with her, or anything, but just to get a
glimpse of high life, and see if our poor
little friend was doing herself proud in
her new station in life.
Gee, but dad found her, and she amt
any more of a duchess than ] am. Her
husband is a younger son OF titled per-
son. but there isn't money enough in the
whole family to wad gun, and our poor
girl is working in a shop, or store, SELL
ing corsets to support lazy, drunken
husband and a whole mess of children,
and while she is seven removes from a
duchess, she does not rank with the
woman who washes her mothers clothes
at home Gosh, but dad was hot when
he found her, and after she told him
about her situation in life he gave her
a yellow backed fifty-dollar bill, and
came back to the hotel mad, and wanted
to pack up and go somewhere else,
where he didn't know any titled persons.
That night a couple of dukes came
around to the hotel to sell dad some
stock in diamond mine in South Africa,
and they got to talking about how Eng
lish society held over our crude Ameri-
can society, until dad got an addition to
the mad he had when he called on our
girl. and when one of the dukes said
America was being helped socially by
the marriage of American women to
titled persons, dad got hot box, like
a stalled freight train.
Says dad, says he: "You Johnnies
are a lot of confidence men, who live
only to rope in rich American girls, so
you can marry them and have their dads
lift the mortgages on your ancestral es-
tates, and put on tin roofs in place of the

shed rain, and you get their money and
spend it on other women" One of the
dukes turned red like lobster, and
think he is a lobster, anyway, and he
was going to make dad stop talking, but
the duke didn't know dad, and he con-
tinued. Says dad, says he: II know a
rich old man in the States, who made
ten million dollars on pickles, or break
fast food, and he had a daughter that
was so homely they couldn't keep clock
going in the house.
'sShe came over here and got exposed
to duke, and she had never been vacci-
mated, and the first her father knew she
caught the duke, and came home, and he
followed her. Say, he didn't know
enough to pound sand, and the old man
got several doctors for her, but they
couldn't break up the duke fever, and
finally the old pickle citizen asked him
how much the mortgage was, and how
much they could live on, and he bought
her the duke, and sent them of. and the
duke covered his castle with building
paper, SO it would hold water, and they
set up housekeeping with a hundred
servants. Then the duke wanted rae
ing stable, after the baby came, and the
old pickle man went over to see the
baby. and it looked so much like the old

Many women long for child to bless
their homes, but because of some de-
bility or displacement of the female
organs they are barren.
Preparation for healthy maternity is
accomplished by Lydia e. Pinkhams
Vegetable Compound more successfully
than by any other medicine, because it
gives tone and strength to the entire
female organism, curing all displace-
ments, liberation and Inflammation.
A woman who is in good physical
condition transmits to her children the
blessings of a good constitution. Is
not that an incentive to prepare for a
healthy maternity
If expectant mothers would fortify
themselves with Lydia e. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound, which for thirty
years has sustained thousands of
women in this condition, there would
be great decrease in miscarriages, in
suffering. and in disappointment at
birth.
The following letters to Mrs. Pink
ham demonstrate the power of Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound in
such cases.
Mrs. L. c. Glover, Vice President of
Milwaukee Business Woman's Associa-
ton, of Ga Grove Street, Milwaukee,
Wis. writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-
81 was married for several years and no
children blessed our home. The doctor said

could not have any children unless I could
be cured. For months took his medicines,
trying in vain for cure, but at last my hus-
band became disguised and suggested that /

AMERICA SUPREME IN TRADE
This Country Leads the World
in Commerce.

During the last month, for the pur-
Americas relaive position, industrially,
among other nations, / have studied the
statistical reports of our own and other
leading nations, says writer in Cent
Per Cent, and the investigations and
comment of almost every important
daily and financial journal in America.
The universal verdict of the press, ire
spective Of party affiliations, is that
Americas supremacy has been estab-
lished and that the nation faces the
dawn of 1905 steadied by the knowledge
of the stupendous truth that, CONNER
cially, among the other nations of the
world, she stands for the first time in
the forefront and alone. The response
bility which comes with such knowledge
is SOLDERING.
But the report of the bureau of statis-
tics of the government department OF
commerce will of course carry greater
conviction than the news reports and
opinions of even the most reliable jour-
nails. This reports figures are in all
1900, but are approximately accurate;
however, for the most important items
the actual figures are available.
In cotton consumption the percentage
of increase between 1880 and 1903 in the
United States is 107 per cent, as against
As per cent in the united kingdom, Ger
many and France combined; in pig iron
437 per cent of increase for America,
against 102 per cent. increase in the
united kingdom, Germany, France and
Russia combined; in coal 1854 per cent.
increase in America, against 80 per cent.
increase in the four European countries
combined.
And as the percentage of increase is
larger, so the actual quantities of these
three articles consumed are larger The
consumption of cotton i'll the United
States in 1903 exceeded by 33 per cent.
that of the united kingdom and was
nearly double that of Germany and
France combined; of pig iron, the con-
sumption in the United States was con-
siderably more than double that of the
united kingdom; of coal, the consump-
ton in the United States was nearly
double that of the united kingdom and
fully double that of Germany
America has 100000 people, total
wealth of $106 100000, 900, and the cash
value of the cotton, corn and wheat
crops for the year is about 81, 012 ,O0O 900.
The new year will be one of almost un-
paralleled prosperity.
