WE LEAD ALL THE EARTH.

A close friend of President Roosevelt
has been taking a look iato the wealth
of nations. kings, potentates and citi
zens of America. He not only con
cludes that the United States is fal
and away the richest nation of the
earth, but finds that individual citi
zens of America have more wealth thar
the kings and princes CT the old world
AS a matter of fact the Count of Monte
Cristo was a beggar alongside of some
of our millionaires. The Chicago Trib.
une publishes a somewhat remarkable
interview with this friend of the presi,
dent from which the following excerpts
are made:
When it comes to individual wealth
We have dozens of citizens who are
worth more than all the kings and rul
ers of the world, taken collectively OIL
severally. The car is reputed to have
a greater income THAI any other liN

Rockefeller undoubtedly could make
comparison with Nicholas and show
the biggest revenue. The Russian
monarch's wealth is the accumulation
of an empire centuries old in making

Der when he had nothing.
Leopold, king of the Belgians, is
the richest monarch in Europe after

the state is but $1,7OO,O 900 a year, his
business interests are so large and the

Habit-forming Medicines.

Whatever may be the fact as to many
OF the so-called patent medicines con-
tanning injurious Ingredients as broadly
published in some journals of more or
less influence, this publicity has certainly
been OF great benefit In arousing needed
attention to this subject, 1t has, in a
considerable measure, resulted in the
most Intelligent people avoiding such
foods and medicines as may be fairly sus-
pected OF containing the Injurious ingre-
fact some time 9 DR.. Pierce, o. Buffalo,
N. Y, rtook time by the forelock,' as it
were, and published broadcast all the
ingredients of which his popular medi-
cines are composed. Thus he has COM
pletely foreStalled all harping critics and
all opposition that might otherwise be
urged against his medicines, because they
are now OF KNOWN COMPOSITION. Fur
thermore, from the formula printed on
every bottle wrapper, 1t will be seen that
these medicines contain no alcohol or
other habit-forming drugs. Neither do
they contain any narcotics or injurious
agents, their ingredients being purely
vegetable, extracted from the roots Of
medicinal plants found growing in the
depths OF our American forests and OF
well recognized curative virtues.
Instead Of alcohol, which even in small
portions long continued, as in obstinate
cases of diseases, becomes highly objec-
tionable from Its tendency to produce a
craving for s~timulants, DR.. Pierce en-
ploys chemically pure, triple refined
glycerine, which of itself is a valuable
remedy In many cases of chronic diseases,
being a superior demulcent, antiseptic,
antiferment and supporting nutritive.
1t enhances the curative action of the

the writings of the eminent Drs. Grover
Coe, Of New York; Bartholow. OF Jeffer-
son Medical College, Phila.; Scudder, Of
Cincinnati E~llingwood, of Chicago;
Hale, Of Chicago, and others, who stand
as leaders in their several schools OF
practice, the foregoing agents are the
very best ingredients that DR.. Pierce
could have chosen to make up his ia
nous discovery" for the cure of not
only bronchial, throat and lung affec-
tlons, but also of chronic catarrh in all
Its various forms wherever located.

Certain adjectives are reserved for

never called beautiful" Along with
pretty and lovely that adjective
has become the property of women
and children alone Handsome" and
the weak "good-looking" are the only
two adjectives of the kind common to
either sex. Even "belle" has no real
masculine correlative in English,
since beau" came to signify some
thing other than personal looks. 1t
is singular that handsome" should
