BUILDS YOU UP
The Right Way-Spring Medicine tina
Begins and Ends Right

So generally successful is Hoods Sar-
sarparilla as a spring medicine, and in
all ailments of the blood stomach. liver
and kidneys, that it may truly be said
to give universal satisfaction. 1t has
been before the public for nearly 80
years, and to-day has the largest sale of
any sarsaparilla. Nothing under the sun
could keep up this great demand but
phenomenal efficiency and loyal support
by the people of good medicine.
1t thoroughly renovates the blood,
adds red corpuscles, creates an appetite,
tones the stomach, aids digestion, per-
fects assimilation, secures 100 per cent
benefit Of the food you eat.
Hoods Sarsaparila represents the
wisdom of one of the best physicians
Boston ever had, combined with the
practical experience of pharmacist who
has been putting up prescriptions for
more than 80 years.-Adv.

sweeping condemnation of tobacco a
sound, scientific refutation may be
supplied. 1t is often said that to-
bacco, that is, nicotine, Is n poison,
but recent experiments by an English
Psychologist, who caused a solution of
nicotine to flow through the heart of
animals, show that "the work done by
the heart can be increased by nicotine
stimulation. This Is in part nervous
nnd In part muscular in origin" Thus
reason and scientific fact continue to
justify the use Of tobacco, for 1t ap-
pears to have both soothing and slim
ulating qualities surely unique COM

smokers should take care not to Of

SOUANDERED RESOURCES.
Bartering Irreplaceable Things for
European Luxuries.

To THE EDITOR OF THE SUN-Sif: AS
a business man and manufacturer l am
naturally much interested in the address
of D. W. Morrow on Trade Balance"
printed in your paper on October "a. es-
pecially that part OF his address in which
he says Moreover, at time when we
are complaining of the high cost of liv-
ing We should welcome an increase in
our imports OF those things which Flu
rope can make for us better than We
can make them for ourselves"
In the first place II would be interest
Ing to know what these things are. aside
from luxuries, which Europe can make
for us better than we can make them for
ourselves and in the second place, If We
send Europe raw materials which we
cannot replace by natural growth, as
coal, petroleum, metals, &c. whether We
are not gratifying our taste for luxuries
at the expense of our descendants.
1t seems to me that large portion of
our exports consists of irreplaceable ma
terials, and even in the case OF replace
able materials we conduct our business
so badly that nature has no chance to
renew the supply, This is especially the
case III TtSdIu u lOrtSA pIouuCNS,
which form a considerable part OF our
exports and on which the prosperity Of
this country depends as the time is not
very distant when all our industrial life
will depend upon their preservation. The
stores of fuel in the shape Of coal, oil
and gas contained in the earth cannot be
increased by man and are being dimin-
ishod at very rapid rate when they are
gone We will be dependent upon the for
ests which retain the rainfall and grad
ually give 1t up to the rivers.
II we expect to continue living on this
continent we must make a radical
change in our methods of dealing with
our resources. Heretofore, instead of an
orderly development Of our natural re-
sources, our actions have resemblcd the
looting of merchant vessel by a crew
OF pirates.
Our great inheritance Of natural re-
sources has been very badly managed.
and we seem to have adopted the plan
of the spendthrift who lives on his capt
tai instead OF his income. and it is now
proposed to intensity this evil by send
ing large part OF our capital in nat
ural resources to other countries in eX-
change for luXuries, as 1t is quite doubt
full II at the present time we will be able
to get anything else in exchange.
