HETTY GREEN PHILANTHROPIST

New York, Oct. 11.-That Hetty
Green, the richest woman in the
world, may give goodly slice of her
fortune toward the establishment of
university for the education of
aliens arriving in New York, is stated
on good authority. The university
project is pet plan of the Countess
Annie Leary, an old friend of Mrs.
Green, and the scheme will be formal
ly launched at dinner to be given by
the Countess tomorrow night, when a
number of wealthy persons are ex-
pected to start fund.
The highest part of Staten Island
will be chosen as a site for the uni
versity, and on this spot there will be
erected first of all gigantic statue of
Christopher Columbus. The poor and
oppressed of all nations and ages will
be welcomed at the university, and
the first object will be to instruct
them in the principles of republican
government, to inspire them with pa
triotism and devotion to their adopted
land, and thus make them good citi-
zens. The range of instruction will in
clude all the various trades, as well
as music, art and literature. The Pope
is said to be greatly interested in the
plan and many men and women of
wealth in addition to Mrs. Green,
have promised substantial support.
Countess Leary, who has mothered
the movement, has considerable
wealth, some of which she will prob
ably devote to the cause.

TO PALE thin PEOPLE
The Century Drug Store Offers To Pay
For Samose II II Does Not Make
Thin People Fat.

Pale, thin people are simply suffer
ing from want of nourishment. They
may eat enough, but their food is not
properly digested and does them no
good.
Samose, the remarkable flesh form
ing food should be used by all who
are pale, weak and thin. 1t mingles
with the food and aids assimilation,
so that when taken for a short time,
nature will soon assert her normal
powers, and the food that is eaten will
give strength and good flesh.
Weigh your self before you com
mence he use of Samose, and you will
notice a steady gain. Samose is a
scientific flesh-forming food that re-
stores the thin and scrawny to their
proper weight, and fills the weak and
debilitated with vigor and vitality.
The woman who longs for rosy
cheeks and the plumpness of beauty
should use Samose. The man who
wants to be strong and well and gain
health and good flesh will find his de-
sires accomplished by Samose.
Such remarkable results have fol-
lowed the use of Samose that The
Century Drug Store is willing to pay
for the treatment if it does not give
the desired results. They make this
offer generally and want all who are
thin, weak and out of health to get a
box of Samose from them on those
terms.
