Trust to Nature.

A great many Americans, both men
and women, are thin, pale and puny, with
poor circulation, because they have III
treated their stomachs by hssty eating
or too much eating, by consuming alco-
hohc beverages, or by too close confne7
ment TO home, office or factory, and in con-
sequence the stomach must be treated
in natural way before they can rectify
their earlier mistakes The muscles In
many such people, in fact in every weary,
thin and thin-blooded person, do their
work with great difficulty. AS n result
fatigue comes early, is extreme and lasts
long. The demand for nutritive aid Is
ahead of the supply. To insure perfect
muscle should take from the blood cer-
tain materials and return to it certain
others. 1t is necessary to prepare the
stomach for the work OF taking up from
the food what Is necessary TO make good,
rich, red blood. We must go to Nature
for the remedy. There were certain
roots known to the Indians OF this
country before the advent Of the whites
which later came to the knowledge OF
the settlers and which are now growing
rapidly in professional favor for the cure
Of obstinate stomach and liver troubles.
These are found to be safe and yet GER
tain in their cleansing and invigorating
effect upon the stomach, liver and blood.
These are: Golden Seal root. Queens
root, Stone root, Bloodroot, Mandrake
root. Then there is Black Cherrybark.
The medicinal principles residing in these
native roots when extracted with .glyc-
crime as solvent make the most reliable
and efficient stomach tonic and liver in
vigorator, when combined in just the
right proportions. as in DR. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery. Where there
is bankrupt vitality - such as nervous
exhaustion bad nutrition - and thin
blood, the body acquires vigor ana the
nerves, blood and all the tissues feel the
favorable effect of this sovereign remedy.
Although some physicians have been
aware Of the high medicinal value or the
above mentioned plants, yet few have
used pure plycerine as q solvent and
usually the DOCTORS prescriptions called
for the ingredients in varying amounts,
with alcohol.
The ''Colden Medical Discovery Is q
scientific preparation compounded Of the
| glyceric extracts Of the above mentioned
| Vegetable ingredients and contains no
alcohol or harmful habit-forming drugs.

Capital from Canada.
1t is to be regretted perhaps from
an American standpoint that large

furnished by Canadian capitalists
rather than by New Englanders them

Denied PIayhouses by Theatre Com
bine, She Plays to Vast Audience
in Tent.
Mime. Sarah Bernhardt. the cele-
brated actress has entered the arena
as "trust buster" When she made
preparations for bookings in Texas,
she found the playhouses of the state
closed to her on account of her re-
fusal to appear under the patronage
of the theatre syndicate. In Texas,
therefore, she was compelled to appear
in tent. A week two ago, novel
method of producing q play was in
augurated at Dallas. when Sarah
played Camille" in a big circus tent,
with an audience of 5000 persons.
During the performance fully 10000
persons crowded around the tent and
would have paid to get in II it had
been big enough. AS it was the tent
only seated 1920 and 500 had to stand
or sit on the ground. 1t was the most
novel wild west show ever seen. The
tent was a huge affair, and from the
outside looked big enough to house
three-ringed circus.
The novelty Of playing in circus
tent appealed to the actress and she
gave her Interpretation of the char
acter of "Camille" as naturally, as
cleyerly and with as much force and
power as IL confronted by an audience
Of New Workers or Parisians in the

sands who greeted Nine. Bernhardt at
Dallas desired as much to show their
Endorsement of her fight against the
trust as to be entertained by her
matchless talent as an actress.
Mime. Bernharit made arrangements
to appear in the tent at Waco
and Austin, Texas, and Oklahoma
City, Oklahoma Territory. In other
Texas cities on her itinerary large
halls were secured and specially equipped
for the performance.

out that in the Dreadnaught it was at
tempted TO preserve two of these
factors, gun power and speed, but that
to do so it was necessary to sacrifice
the armor protection, which they be-
lieve such battleship should have.
No Limit to Cost.
No sacrifice in armament, speed, or
steaming radius will have to be made
in designing the new Constitution.
The only limitation placed upon the
Secretary of the Navy by the Naval
Affairs Committee is that her hull and
machinery shall not cost more than
$6,000,000. The provision for the bat
tleships Michigan and South Carolina,
now the largest ships building for the
navy, was 100000 each, and there
is no doubt in the minds of the mem
bers Of the committee that If the
Secretary decides to go to 10000 tons
or beyond, the extra $2,O00,0O0 now
provided will easily accomplish it.
1t is estimated that the armor and
armament for the ship will cost some
WhtlG III lle OIL HO,OUU,-
600 in addition to the hull and ma
chinery, and that other fittings will
bring the total for the new Constitu-
ton up approximately to $10000,0OO.
The Dreadnaught is planned to
carry ten Pinch rifles. The Nichi-
gan and South Carolina are to carry
eight Pinch guns. The Dreadnaught |
will be able to concentrate six guns
,or bow or stern fire, with eight on
either broadslde, while the American
hips can use four guns dead ahead or
lead astern, and all eight ahead or |
stern on quartering fire, with all |
light on either broadside. SO that in
,oint of fire they are nearly as eff.
cient as the Dreadnaught, which ex-
els materially only in the single
oint of speed. To counterbalance
his the American ships have the de
ided advantage in armor protection.
The Advantage of Guns.
The Constitution will have as high

When one stops to think of the
tremendous and almost magic growth
of the distant West it seems strange
that such an old state as Maine is still
largely unknown and unsettled.
Almost Immediately after the Revo-
lutionary War the settlement of
Maine began by inhabitants of other
parts of New England and its growth
has been steady and sure, with the
exception of the years of, and imme-
diately following the Civil War. TIE
population, however, has been almost
entirely confined to the lower half OF
the state and only very recently have
the immense possibilities and re-
sources of the northern half been re-
allied.

throughout the other parts of the
country at the present time. Had

other members OF the family. All of
the millions she has expended for In
dian education have been employed
under direction of the Interior Depart
ment, as her long study of the Indian
problem is recognized to have made
her one of the best authorities on the
subject in the country.
i Planned the Buildings Personally.
Z The st. Louis and st. John schools
at Pawhuska, both foInded by Mother
Katherine number of years ago, are
good examples of the work she is do
Ing for the education of the Indians.
Both have handsome and commodious
buildings, planned personally by
Mother Katherine, and have given
hundreds of Usage children their first
knowledge Of the white mans learning.
Many OF the teachers are themselves
Indians, graduates of these or simAaar
schools, who have entered with eN-
thusiasm into the education of thefA
fellow tribesmen. The Usage schools
receive some assistance from the gov
eminent, and their scope Is greatly
widened by the orders now in effect
from the agents office that every
Usage child of school age must be in
school In order to draw its share at
the annuity payments.
Used Indian Labor.
While Mother Katherine's benefac-
tions have always beef LIBERAL it is
her plan to let the Indians do the work
whenever possible, in the construction
OF buildings and work of similar
character. When the Sacred Heart
school burned five years ago, and was
rebuilt Pottawatomie and Kickapoo
Indians made the brick for the new
structure and did much of the work
towards Its construction, working, of
course. under the direction of white
contractor Much of the maintenance
of this school, which Is claimed to be
the oldest west of the Mississippi river,
is borne by Mother Katherine, and 1t
was by her visits to this school that
she discovered Albert Negahnquet, the
fullblood Pottawatomie boy educated
by her. and who is now the only full
blood Indian Catholic priest in the
world. After his graduation at Sacred
Heart. ST. paid his expenses through
Carlisle ana the Catholic university at
Washington. finally finishing his edu-
cation at Rome, from whence he re-
turned only two years ago, to take up
his work among his own people.

A number of schools Of the same
sort have been founded and maintained
