1870 the Kingdom Of Italy had a
wealth Of $s.ooo,ooo,0oo. 1t increased
to $15, ,O00, 100000 by 1895, and to ap-
proximately $25. 900, 100000 in 1910.
For purposes Of comparison it is we'll
to have before US the growth in
wealth Of our own country.
In 1850, the wealth of the United
States was only $7,000,0o0,0o0. In
1860 1t was 100000 100000. In 1870,
in spite of the fact that we had fought
a Civil War lasting four years at an
expense equal to the entire wealth of
our country at the beginning Of the
war, we were astonished to find the
national wealth almost doubled and
the wealth of the United States equal
to $30,0oo,ooo.0
Thirty years later, this wealth had
more than tripled, for in 1900 It was
in excess of $4,000, ,0O0, 900. In 1910
it was over $130.00O,O00,000 and in
1914 It was estimated by Government
authorities to be $1S7 200, 100000.
While at the present time as the
result Of the general appreciation Of
values. Of the enormous profits from
war trade, of the rise in wages, we
find our national income now in ex.
cess of $4,000. 100000 year, and our
national wealth cannot be less than
$500 ,OOO, 600, 900.

Physicians and druggists say that
the inebriating effects Of the bath

Those who have tried the bath tub
