Costly Monroe Doctrine From Success Magazine.

It would be interesting If somebody would calculate how much 1t cost Uncle Sam to perform his presumed obligations as guarantor of the Monroe doctrine. In 1898 he fought a war, freed" Cuba, and acquired various colonial liabilities. That war introduced him into the first circles of world powers, and the effort to travel in such society has kept his household expenses steadily advancing until now they exceed a billion year. Before the Spanish war, a billion bien- nially was supposed to be scandalously 1 high.
 To mention just a few cases, the Mon
 ore theory nearly embroiled us in a wal l with Great Britian over Venezuela; f made us the financial guarantors of
 Santa Domingo; and the same of Ven
 ezuela; 1t forced us to drive the dictator
 Zelaya out of Nicaragua; 1t has recently 1 involved us In a general complication of 1 Central American affairs: and finally, it l has brought about the mobilization of a great American army on the borders of Mexico, as a warning to that country that it must be good.

Such a one was cotton expert who. highly recommended, ap- piled for a place with a stock exchange house that had bought a cotton exchange membership and needed a man to open a new field of speculation to his clients. The applicant was in every way desir- able save for the fact that three houses with which he had been connected had failed, though not one for dishonorable reason He was rejected as a hoodoo. Shortly afterwards he made connec- ton with another house to fill a simi- far want, and proved a very valuable man in his sphere: but within year the fourth house failed.
 The hoodoo is often the man whom everybody likes. speaks well of. and recommends to everyone else. with the one reservation-he Is a man who un- accountably has not succeeded. There is nothing whatever against him; he is honest and shrewd. and all that, but unsuccessful Once the hoodoo becomes known as such he must attach himself to the newcomers-those who do not know, have not been warned, or whc are so new and confident as not to care Each connection he makes is little les desirable. until he finally reaches thu stage at whifh he is ashamed of hi associations fhaving made them in th' demi-mondf of finance because he could make thfn1 nowhere else Even they fail hiurAat last. and then you find him fin New street.

RHEUMATISM

Oh, THE TORTURE OF "JoINT PAINS" as acute rheumatism used to be called.
 No torment this side of the internal regions could be worse. When every movement of an arm, or leg, or the head will send those intense shooting pains thru the body and make one. wish they had never been born. Of all the hopeless, forlorn and pitisble creatures on earth a sufferer from acute rheumatism is about the worst.
 But strange to say, one of the worst features of acute rheumatism is the fact that on some days you are prac- tically free from pain. The bad fea. ture of this lies in the fact that most people will stop taking treatment when the pain. is no longer felt and thereby permit their systems to become weak ened and susceptible to still, worse. and more malignant forms of rheumatism.
 If you are subject to rheumatism in any form there is ONLY ONE COURSE for you to follow. and that Is to take GLORIA TONIC until you can safely say that EVERY TRACE of this dread malady is ENTIRELY ERADICATED from your system. No remedy is surer none quite as slre-as GLORIA TONIC. ,tt

TEXAS LECIS-
 LATOR SURPRISED
Stiff Knees Limbered Up. Pain Driven
 Away. Feels Like a Boy.

\ For several years I suffered with rheumatism in my knees and shoulder My knees were so stiff and painful I could hardly squat down or rise again when down. It was painful to walk any very great distance. I also suf- fered much with sciatica. I did not believe that rheumatism could be cured, refusing to buy "remedy'' from an old friend, who assured me that he had been cured of case of thirty years standing that had stiffened his knees and elbows, that his arms were so stiff that he had not scratched his head in thirty years. I saw him run across the street and throw a baseball like a boy. He forced a package of "Gloria Tonic'' upon me as a gift with a promise on my part to take the med icine by the directions. After taking thirty-s six tablets in nine days I was surprised to the degree of ecstasy to discover that I could use my knees as we'll as when a child, without twinge or pain. I ought to have given this testimonial four years ago, but 1t Is as true today as it was then.-very truly yours, J. T. Hamilton. Mercury. Texas.

Among the many interesting things told in the memories of the great music master Wagner is the story of his col lege life.
 When a student at Leipzig Universi- ty he pIunged into fighting corps, wore the colors proudly, and narrowly escaped serious. duels. The manner In which Wagner described what was a tragic ep- isode of his student days. the unsparng way in which he confesses his faults. throws new light upon his character. In simple but exceedingly moving words he tells of the gambling passion that held him like demon; his long run of illness maddened him; he lost interest In all else but play Indifferent to the opinion of his former companions. he vanished from their midst, passing night after night with the lowest of students in gambling houses.
 Finally, having lost everything, he used some money he held in trust for his mother. and that. too. was swallowed up with the exception of one thaer. Sick in mind and body-he sat through that terrible night distracted. He knew that the thaler represented his whole life and existence. for that lost, he could never return home He saw himself wandering aimlessly in the grey of the morning through the fields and woods a prodigal son. Suddenly, while on the verge or deSpdlr, ne won ana won again. Mechanically he stslsed again. and still he won, until there WIS sufficient to pay all his debts The warmth that filled his soul and body was. he says, of a sacred nature: he felt that he was moi abandoned by God and his angels, he felt a holy presence whispering warm Ing and consolation. He was cured He went home and slept soundy for hours and awoke new born.
 Deterred by no sense of shame he tolf his mother of his experience in that mo mentous night, and returned her money under acknowledgement of his sin She folded her hands and thanked God for the grace he had given her son, and ex. nrssssd her firm cnuyictian that he wal
