la Grippe Cured

This modern malady has become dreaded not more for its direct fatality than for the weakness of body and mind it leaves behind it. Prolonged debility, permanent prostration, melancholy and suicide follow La Grippe. For this disease there is no remedy superior to .Ayer's Cherry Pectoral.

"The best remedy for la grippe that I know of is Ayer's Cherry Pectoral" REV. JOHN K. CHASE,

South Hampton, N. H.

My 'wife and fire children were taken down with la grippe, while the disease was so widely prevalent. I dosed them with Ayer's Cherry Pectoral, and before using quite two bottles my family was restored to health. I know of several obstinate cases of the same complaint which were also cared by this remedy.", J. PARMINTER,

A BOOK OF WEALTH.

AN EXTRAORDINARY PUBLICATION WH5CH IS BEING ISSUED IN CHICAGO.

It In of the Rich and For the Rich, Single Copies Coating From 81,000 to •2,600—Covers of Golden Silk and

Water Color Illustrations.

Some queer bookmaking has been done in this country off and on, but probably the most unusual and striking volume ever published is now on the presses in Chicago. Its title is "The Book of Wealth." It will be of the rich and for the rich. It will be an edition de luxe of the most extraordinary pattern.

Each volume will be bound in covers of heavy golden silk, lined with a white brocade of the same rich fabric, embellished with frontispieces in original water color and illustrated throughout its 1,000 pages in every style known to the modern printing art.

It is the most wonderful book in the world, its sponsors say—an illustrated summary of all that is most worth knowing, all that ever can be remembered of the history of every nation and era of all times, from the dawn of civilization in Egypt and Chaldea to the culture and industrial development which mark the closing years of -the nineteenth century, especially in the United Statos of America.

The two editions of this work will cost $250,000. In all only 400 copies will be printed—150 of the first or cygne noir" edition at $3,500 a copy and 250 copies of a less smbeUisbed editiou at $'1,000 a copy. Each eopy i'l made up of ten sections-of 100 pages each—1,000 pages in all. The covers are 17 by 22 inches in size.

In addition to the 2,500 illustrations in the book proper each "cygne noir" copy is accompanied by ten portfolios oovered with embroidered silk and containing 100 large size pictures in hand retouched color, etching and other elaborated processes. Of the ten sections of

COVER DESIGN FOR "THE BOOK OF WEALTH."

"The Book of Wealth" seven are completed. The remaining three will be printed within a year.

The author is Mr. Hubert Howe Bancroft of San Francisco. The inspiration that led him to undertake the work was found in the World's Columbian exposition while he was preparing matter for his subsequently published "Book of the Fair," itself a prodigious venture.

In Jackson park dnring the exposition period there was gathered much that represented the wealth and civilization of all lands. The immense wealth of the world, as evidenced by the few "samples," impressed Mr. Bancroft so deeply that the suggestion oame to him to gather from the four corners of the earth and place in one grand volume all that represented the wealth of the na tions.

The commissioners general of foreign countries were in Chicago then. They promised their aid in gathering material for text and illustration. The work Was begun then in earnest Pictures were made largely from nature, and the text was secured from the most authentic sources, with the result that after six years of labor seven of the ten sections, as said in the foregoing, are oom pleted.

The first section may be taken as a type. It is oovered with rich old gold armure silk made for the purpose and imported by a Chicago house. On the outer cover is a dashing water color by Will H. Low entitled "Jason and the Golden Fleece." It represents the ad venturer after he has secured the trophy. The inner covers of the typical section are of white brocaded, china silk, the brqgade being in conventional flowers. This silk, too, was imported by a' Chicago bouse for "The Book of Wealth."

The first chapter of the section opens with a full page tialf tone picture from a drawing by E. H. Blashfield, repre senting a young Chaldean goddess dispelling Chaoa Next comes the text, in large, clear type on* heavy calendered paper, profusely illustrated. The dawn of aivilization is first told. Then conies a consecutive history of the nations of remote antiquityas far as it is known.

The American millionaires are treated in the last three sections, btit while this unique literary effort iBcalled "The Book of Wealth" the author insists that it is not intended exclusively for rich persons nor as a glorification of them Its purpose is to show what has been done for the world by men and women who have used their riches of mind and parse' for the advancement of the peo pies of the earth. Mr. Bancroft is at present residing at Cambridge, where his sons are attending Harvard college. Speaking of hiQ book, he says: "The wealth of the world ie limitless. Much as has been gathered and created. Infinitely more'is yet to came. We have only just begun to get rich. We have only just entered upon the civilisation in which wealth, is so powerfsl a factor, '^nd. the 'Book of Wealth* shows go dearly how wealth ia one with'civilizatiofi."

A VISITING CRITIC.

Something About SI. Doumic, Foremost literary Critic of France.

With Le Gallienne, leader of the English decadents, and JElone Doumic, the foremost of French literary critics, both lecturing to us at the same time, we ought to learn something about what literature really and truly is. Le Gallienne may bo a passing fad, but M. Doumic is a literary gun of the biggest caliber. He is literary editor of La Revue des Deux Mondes and is now here on the invitation of the Ccrcle Francais of Harvard university.

M. Doumiohas had from the beginning of his not unromantic career an almost

uninterrupted moord of eacoees in bis ehosea profession. Born.in Paris Ha*rh 7, I860, he-was eduoated at the Lycee Condorcet, graduating with numerous prizes inthe general competition, among which was that of rhetoric.

Continuing his studies, be entered the Superior Normal school in 1879 and waB graduated in 1882 with the first prize in the examination for the literary fellowship. His proficiency was promptly recognized in his appointment as professor of rhetoric at the Stanislaus college in 1888, a post which he has retained Since that tima

His ability in literary work has resulted in several published works that are remarkable for a man comparatively so young. From 1888 to 18»4 he was dramatio critic of Le Moniteur Universal. Since 1894 he has been the literary critio of La Revue des Deux Mondes. He has been also a frequent contributor to La Francaise, Le Correspondent, Le Gaulois, La Revue Bleu *9d Le Journal deB Debate. His published works, dealing with a great variety of literary topics, comprise eight or ten volumes. These include a series of "Studies In French Literature," "Portraits of Authors," "Writers of Today" and "The Younger Writers From Seute to Ibsen," all of whioh are published by Perrin.

M. Doumic has been called to deliver frequent, lectures in Paris, Lyons, Bordeaux, Caen, Geneva, Brussels and Amsterdam. In recognition of his serv ices to literature he was decorated with the cross of the Legion of Honor on 1 4 1 8 9 5

SHE PLAYS WITH LIONS.

A Denver Woman Who Owns and Manage! a Menagerie.

Probably the only woman in this country who owns and manages a zoological garden all by herself iB Mrs. John Elitoh of Denver. Not only is she the proprietress and manager, but she is an animal trainer, and her playfellows are lions, lion cubs, bears, ostriches, kangaroos and other wild beasts. She plays with her youqg lions as she would with a pair ot kittens. She goes down into her bear pit wholly unattended and feeds sugar plums to grizzlies which would make short work of a stranger.

On the dea^i of her husband a few years ago Mrs.' Elitoh found herself burdened with a garden which Mr. Elitoh had established and operated with profit, but upon which there was a heavy mortgage. It was a beautiful place, north of Denver, covered with fruit trees and equipped with a theater, a dancing pavilion, a restaurant, innumerable kiosks, a switchback railway and a menagerie. With the settlement of the estate came the conviction that she must either sell

First the mortgage was lifted, and then she remodeled the place to suit her own ideas of beauty and. utility until at last the gardens became the meet attractive institution of the kind ill America.
