tl while about thl3 theory- vr.ere are the maxksts? Are they in Africa? Weil. Africa dots not offer per capita anything like as attrastire a market as America. Jiere we clothe ourselves all over, ani they 'don't th?re. (Laughter.) Are these jr-aj-ket in. Asia? Well, there are some markets tliere. and there are wme markets in Africa that are valuable and In which we already have a share; but I ask yoa to remember this fact: if we are to compete for those markets, that the great Kuropt-an nations have got possession of All that countrr. France, Germany, England and Italy have absolutely apportion! Africa very much as a mother would divide a amon? her children- This has been done without cosultln the inhabitants. Thinking only of their own aggrandizement and of the extension of their own triile. they have divided up that land, fo lately on of mystery, and that was opened to our knowledge by the explorations of Livingstone and Stanley. Not only that, tut these countries are pursuing. In every other part of the world, a colonizing policy. They are taking up every Island they can find. England has Australia, continental in size and resources; she his India; she has had for years African possessions, and they are now greatly extended. This Very thing gives her nJ those other nations that have entered upon the colonial policy a great advantage In the commerce of the world over the United States. We have never had a colonizing policy, and probably never will have one. Indeed, we have been so narrow in our views upon this question that we could hot even take in the Sandwich Islands when their people acke-i it. It Is now a. matter of dispute whether the tripartite arrangements we made in connection with Kngland and Germany about the Samonn Islands, with a view of maintaining American Influence, as well as with a sentimental thought of helping those stalwart, brave fend generous natives whether we shall not retire from that agreement altogether and let Germany or Kngland. or both, as they rray eettl it between them, have Samoa end that proup in the Pacittc Islands. I do not say that I approve of thi3 anti-colonial Xollcy. carried to that extent. I am only maklns" the point now that these colonial possessions have been established with a view of extending English. German. French and Italian trade; and that they secute to the nation that has established them a preat advantage over the United States. That Is not all. Those great nations have for years subsidized steamship lines; they rave developed their commercial marine until great steam vessels in regular lines ply regularly and swiftly between German jxrts, and English jorts, and French ports and the most remote parts of the world. Xot only that, but they have established a system of exchanges. PThe banking system of these countries is done through London. In all thl they have tlready a great start, a most distinct and Important advantage over us in competing for the markets cf the world. We have been trying to start some steamship lines. After resistence on the part of many of our Democratic friends the Fifty-first Concress passed a bill giving somewhat decent mall pay to American steamship lines, and as a result we now have a great American line from Xew York to Southampton. We have two great ships carrying the American flag, and we have two or three more about to come off the ways at the Philadelphia ship yards that will equal In power, rpeed and magnificence the- best efforts of. the English naval constructors, but we"" bive only made a beginning. OX RECIPROCITY. "Now, there was a part of the world vhere thi3 selfish policy which the great commercial nations of Europe have pursued In utter disregard of the rights of the na-t-res, pushing their trade on the point of the bayonet there has been one part of the earth upon which they have not been permitted to lay their hand'j. Many years &go, seeing this tendency, there was announced by an American President a doctrine that has come to be known as the Jlonroe doctrine, and the gist of It was that on this hemisphere we will not allow any European nation to lay Its hands In the way of acquiring territory. This resolve alone, expressed with quietness and yet with courage, and adhered to In our American diplomacy since that time, has preserved the Sjates of Central and South America from European aggression. The peoples of these countries are friendly to us. They have established republican forms of government. Brazil, the last to fiet up a republic, has completed the chain r republics from Mexico to Cape Horn. These people stood in good relations to us geographically, and we ought to have their trade. Here was a near and friendly reK'.on where we might extend our comIT.erCf. Hitherto we had utterly neglected .it. ,X,it share In the commerce of Central "and ;?iuth America was insignificant.
rgtly tcrx the reason that we had no com munication with tnem. You cannot ret one man to trade with another unless the mall runs between the two places, or the telegraph lines, or & regular line of steamers whose arrival he can note, so that he xrny know that he can get hi3 goods at a Klven time. We have only recently betrun to put ourselves into that relation to those people; If that policy Is adhered to and carried out we shall find great lines from New York and Philadelphia, from Mobile,1 Favannah. New Orleans and Galveston plying between these ports and the ports of South America, and opening up a great and favored trade for us. But. mv friends we went further. In the McKinlev bill we put a reciprocity provision. It was a simple start. The first thousrht was that we would give free sutrar to our own people, that the cost of living might be reduced in every man's home. The next thousrht was that in doincr this we were building up a great trade with these Cane-sugar producing countries in America. The suggestion was made, and rou know how ardently and zealously it was urged by Mr. Blaine, that we should aay to those people, if we let your sugar Jnto this country free of duty you must let tome of our products into your countries free of duty or at favored rates. These nations promptly came forward and commercial arrangements for they were not properly treaties were made with them. Ilero were markets of the world that we not only could get. but that we had gotten. They were already curs and we had obtained them without Inflicting any Injury cn the American workman, the American farmer or the American maufacturer. We did not put anybody's wages down to get J hat market or put the farmer's wool on the ree list to get it. Now. my friends, you tiill be surprised to know that these gen-tlem-.i who are bo anxious to get the marietta of the world, in making this tariff bill, which has recently become a law, Btruck down these reciprocity arrangements, abrogated every one of them. I thlik the Amlcan people should call to &&.sztA. avsrty that so wantonly and uselessly Abandons the markets that we had already won." ;The thousands followed the carriages down to the station and gave the ex-President a hearty farewell cheer. Many prominent men of New Albany accompanied the train to Jeffersonvllle. They assured Secretary Seeds, of the State committee, that the great enthusiasm displayed was only a forerunner of what mlsht be expected on Kov. 6. Jeffersonvllle did a little better In point cf numbers that heard General Harrison than h?r sister -city; perhaps four thousand people surrounded the stand in the center of Warder Park, a public park of the city. The train drew up alongside the park and was Immediately besieged by the men women and children, anxious to get a. first glimpse of the ex-President. It required several minutes for the police to crn a way Into the park, and when the crowd started In behind General Harrison there were cries from women and children who got caught in the jam. The cheering was tremendous all the way p the graveled walk to the stand. end If there were any Democrats there they all were evidently falling In with the general enthusiasm. Mayor Whitesldes, the first Republican Mayor JefTcrsonvllle has had. and a self-made young man, had the pleasure of introducing the speaker. For almos a half hour General Harrison spoke, the bright sunshiny afternoon putting him 5n excellent spirits. As the train left the park the shouts reminded one of some strong Republican city's enthusiasm when Gen. Harrison 'was a candidate for the presidency. At 3 o'clock the train started up the J., M. & I. road for Indianapolis. Intemperate Address on Catlioltcs. MINNEAPOLIS, Oct. 13. Gen. L. T. Morgin. Indian Commissioner under President Harrison. In an address before the State Uastla: convention on "Rome In Politics." made a bitter attack on the Catholic

GERMANY TREFERS TO LET CIII.VA A.D JAPAN FIGHT IT OUT. Same Position Taken by the United Slate-Rrport tlint 4 lie Chinese. Are Sain for Pence Denied. (Copyright. by the Associated Tress.) BERLIN, Oct. 13. The Hamburglsche correspondent publishes a semi-official communication pointing out that Germany, on . no account will take part In any intervention In favor of either belligerent In the Orient. The Cologne Gazette confirms the statement that Russia and France are working hand in hand In thl3 matter and repeat the assertion that they also are averse to Interference In the war. It is addei that as Austria la in a similar manner acting In harmony with Germany, and a3 It Is claimed that the United States, from the first, has not concealed her sympathy with Japan. Italy is the only power likely to comply with hie proposal of the Karl of Kimberly. for an international Intervention. The National Zeitung and other German newspapers point out tnat German interests in the war are not Identical with England or Russian interests and issue warnings aga!ri3t yielding to proposals on the part of either jxwer. The Cologne Gazette to-day publishes the following dispatch from Berl'.n; "It la confirmed, from various sources, that Germany has declined to take pirt in a joint European Intervention between China and Japan at the present Juncture ani this subject, accordingly, is removed from the diplomatic programme of. the powers." The correspondent of the Associated Press T2s sounded a distinguished official upon the subject and has also made other inquiries in influential quarters with the result that he h?.a found it to be the general opinion that Jipan. in the event of being victorious, will not make exorbitant demands upon China, but will restrict herself to insisting upon the independence of Cnrea from Chirr, while asking for certain protectoral rights for herself as well s a big w?r Indemnity. It is probable that Japan may demand the cession of th island of Formosa. Significant, as indicating the IntentlDns of Russia, is the statement of the Berliner Tageblatfs correspondent at '3t. Petersburg that the Russian troops In the towns, villages and passes of the Chinese frontier have been greatly reinforced, und that large quantities of provisions and war material are constantly arriving at those places. Large d?tachments of Cosacl:s first PDneared. p.nd they were followed by Cossack artillery and later by strong detachments of infantry, bringing with them the component parts of very spacious barracks, with portable heating and baking stoves. In a word, everything apparently Is being prepared for a forwarl movement If such a step is decided to be necessary. Uncle Snm Will Keep Hands Off. NEW YORK. Oct. 13. A special dispatch from Washington says: The United States has been Invited by the Quadruple Alliance, :?ompo?ed of Great Britain, France, Germany and Russia to Join it In a friendly Intervention in the war between China and Japan. The invitation has been declined. , The dec'inat'en s based on the time-honored policy of this government to avoid any entangling alliances with foreign powers. It acknowledges the truth of what the Invitation has to sav about the desirability of the restoration of peace, etc., but in the polite language of diplomacy it is pointed out that this country has so far thriven very well attending to Its own business and that so long as it continues to prosper by that policy it will not depart from it. Russians Held la Readiness. ST. PETERSBURG, Oct. 13. The military officials of the Amoor province, Russian Manchuria, which province adjoins eastern China, the Manchurias being separated by the Amoor river, have, it is reported, received orders to hold all the troops In the province in readiness in view )f international complications in China rendering Russian Intervention necessary. Private dispatches have been received aere statins that several tribes in Afghanistan and Turkestan have petitioned Russia to accept them as Russian subjects. Rnsalnn Troop on the Border.

The musical Jubilee In honor of the anniversary of the entry of the composer Johann Strauss Into the musical world was continued to-night. The Imperial Opera House was crowded to its fullest capacity by a most, fashionable audience who gathered to witness the first performance of the new ballet "Round About Vienna," In honor of Herr Strauss. Joseph Bayer, the composer, conducted the orchestra. The growth of modern Vienna was shown in the ballet by a number of beautiful tableaux, all loudly applauded. In the third scene, after the playing of several Sirauss waltzes, a picture of the king of composers of waltz music was carried on to the stage. The picture was crowned with a wreath and its introduction was the signal for tumultuous cheering. Herr Strauss, who occupied a private box with his wife, repeatedly bowed his thanks to his enthusiastic admirers lu the house. Hawaiian Politics. VICTORIA, 1$. C, Oct. 13.

Even the most enthusiastic admirer of Dr. carver cannot now doubt the superiority of J. A. It. Elliott over him at pigeon shooting at thirty yards rise and fifty yards boundaries. All question In this direction was practically settled at Exposition Park to-day by Elliott taking the third and last match of the eriea by a score of 99 to 93. . In addition to his winning" the decisive shoot, Elliott's record of 199 birds out of 200 in the last two matches is something that will go down In trap shooting history as marvelous. Dr. Carver was not In particularly good form. On the other hand. Elliott, aside from his single miss, the twenty-ninth bird, seemed surer than on Friday. MR. BAYARD RETURNS AND SAYS HE HAS ENTERED INTO NO POLITICAL DEAL. Governor 3IcKlnley, "Western Tour Ended Speech Last MbM nt To-Iedo-WlNon Cut Off ly llnln. NEW YORK, Oct. 13. Hon. T. F. Bayard. United States embassador to Great Britain, returned to America to-day on the Ameri can line steamer City of Paris. He was ac companied by his two daugnters and granddaughters. Mr. Bayard was met at the dock by a number ot Delaware friends. He was asked by a reporter if he cared to say anything regarding the alleged existence of an understanding between himself and William Saulsberry, by the terms of which Mr. Bayard was to succeed Mr. HIggins in the United States Senate and Mr. Saulsberry to take Mr. Bayard's position as embassador to the court of St. James. He replied with a deprecating shake 'of the head, "all bosh! all bosh! I never, as I have before stated, entered into a political deal with any one whereby my own personal Interests would be auvanced." Regarding h's desire to be a candidate for the Senate he refused to say anything. "1 shall." he said, "go to Washington this afternoon and from there in a few days to my home In Wilmington, where the greater portion of my stay in America will be spent. I expect to return to England in November next." Col. James O. Broadhead, United States minister to Switzerland, was also a passenger on the Paris. He was accompanied by Mrs. Broadhead. and they w;li go at once to St. IxjuIs where, Mr. Broadhead said, laughingly, he might have an opportunity to vote for a Democrat. He was very enthusiastic In his praise of Switzerland and declared that that countrv had the best system of government In the world. "Better than our own?" he was asked. "Well," wa3 the reply, "I should think so," M'KIXLEYVS TRIP EXDKD. The Governor Returns to Ohio nnd Speaks at Toledo. TOLEDO, O., Oct. 13. To-day Governor McKlnley returned to his own State. He was given a welcome home, that was entirely in keeping with the splendid receptions he has met abroad. He spoke at Paulding this afternoon to a large audience composed mainly of the farmers of Paulding and the adjoining counties, and after the meeting he was conveyed on a special train to 'r'oledo, stopping en route at Defiance, Napoleon and Liberty, and making i short sptcii at each place. The Governor was accompanied from Toledo to Paulding and back by Secretary of State Taylor, State Auditor Poe and others. The people of Toledo, despite the inclement weather, congregated in great numbers at Memorial Hall, filling that pl'ce to the utmost with an exceedingly demonstrative audience which gave McKlnley a more than roval welcome home after his triumphs In the West. A big procession was oil the evening's programme, but It had to be abandoned, on account of the rain. In the morning the Governor goes to Colunlbus. TACKLES THE ENEMY. Mr. Wilson Speaks in a Republican Stronghold. MORGANTOWN, W. Vav Oct. 13.-Xot less than four thousand West Virginia and Pennsylvania Democrats listened to the address delivered here this afternoon by Hon. W. L.. Wilson. Although this county of Monongalia usually gives a Republican majority of 1.CO0 and the adjoining county of Preston a Republican majority of over 1,500 the meeting was the largest Mr. Wilson has spoken to thus far In the campaign. Mr. Wilson was escorted from the der.ct. to hi3 hotel by a Democrat'c club, 150 stro.r, composed entirely of students from the State University. The first address of the day was made by ex-Gov. A. I?. Fleming, and he was followed by Mr. Wil3on. but before the latter had spoken half an hour a sudden renewal of the heavy storm of the early morning compelled him. to bring his remarks to a premature close. Hon. John Muran. of Pittsburg, followed Mr. Wilson, speaking in the rain. This evening the university students entertained Mr. Wilson at a banquet, where, in reply to a toast, he marii' a brief address of a nonpolitlcal character. Stevenoon nt Strentor.

OF TREES TUB WEALTH OF OUR -GREAT FORESTS IS XOT EXTIUELY IX LI Mil EH. Various Minor Uses to Which "Wood Products Are Pat A Demand for Them in Artn nnd Industries. New York Evening Post. A fact generally overlooked by those in-v terested in' the preservation of our forests and woodlands is that many of the minor products of our trees equal in value that of the lumber and timber, and that In the aggregate they make as great a demand upon the forests as the recognized needs of the lumber merchants. Until comparatively recently many of these by-products were not utilized, but wer allowed to go to wrfste after the timber and lumber were secured. The real wealth of the woods is just beginning to be realized, ani as the country becomes more thickly set- ' tied and timber more valuable many other new forest products that are not now utilized at all will be cbnverttrd into money. No country has been so prodigal as the United States in the use of wood for fud,.' and this has probably been the heaviest drain upon the woods. In European countries the firewood consist:! chieliy of inferior material, such as brush and .small faggos, but here we often use the best. In nearly nine-tenths of the rural districts the farming classes use wood almost entirely for fuel, taking only the largest limbs and very often the trunks of the trees. Such waste would not be tolerated for an Instant in most of the old countries, and the Inhabitants would look upon it almost In the same light as a New York farmer would if his neighbor should use good hay and straw for cooking his breakfast. Even some of our factories, steamboats and railroads use "aluable wood as fuel, which, greatly increases the consumption. While this wasteful use of wood Is going on In sections of the coun try, considerable quantities of firewood are being imported, amounting in all to nearly S500.000 worth a year. We also Import over K0.000 worth of wood ashes for general 'use fter waste fully burning our firewood and throwing the ashes away with other garbage, t Another great drain upon our forests is the manufacture of the so-called "naval stores," which include ali of the resinous products of the coniferous trees. The Southern States furnish most of these products and they practically hive a monopoly of the whole business. Small quantities of naval stores are produced in Russia, France, Austria, Portugal, Ceylon and Galicia, but :hey are very insignificant compared with the annual output ot the United States. These naval stores are not In as "much demand since the age of Iron and steel boat building hss been ushered In, and this may he looked upon as tortunite considering the rapid decrease in the supplies. Rut the turpentine, pitch, brewers pitch, tar and oil of tar are all used more or less In the arts, medicines and as insecticides. The demand for these products will, consequently, be pretty well sustained even though our business of building wooden vessels becomes a lost art. WOOD PULP AND TAN BARK. The manufacture of tan bark Is one of the most Important Industries connected with the utilization of the forest products, and vast quantities of this are annually demanded. In addition to our own supply we .mport nearly a quarter of a million dollars' worth In the shape of hemlock from Canada. In the pitch-pine regions of our country a new industry is. springing up which promises to increase vastly in the future. It is the simple utilization of the ?normous fielJs of fat pine logs and stumps from which all resinous matter has been extracted. These have, in mny cases, in the past been allowed to decay where they lappened to fall. This "lightwood," or fat pine, as it . is ' called. 13 cut up into small bundles, and retailed as tire wood in most of oilf Eastern cities; ' A michine is Invented for shaving up the logs and stumps nto appropriate lengths. The pieces are then tied up in "small bundles and sent to the cities by ships. It is said that at the rate of a cent a bundle the old stumps will yield nearly as much pront as the trees sold for as timber cr for other uss. The use of the spruce forests for making paper pulp, from which is manufactured most of our paper supplied to periodicals. Is well known and represents an industry that will be limited only by the supply of wood. Already great inroads have b en made upon the spruce forests, so that without systematic cultivation of them the raw material for this cheap paper will soon give out. In . Germany, wnere the wood pulp is al made in large quantities, the ores.er's art is understood better than in thi3 country, and the cultivation of spruce forests is carried on so carefully that the .supply i3 always kept equal to the demand Instead of destroying the spruce forests there they simply thin them cut. taking only the large, matured trees, while the young saplings arc allowed to remain for future use. The hard woods yield many by-products as well as, the soft kinds, and 'especially in producing the charcoal for our iron furnaces. We also make quantities of cedar oil, wood alcohol, or pyrollgenous acid, and oil of sassafras. In the manufacture of paints, soaps, varnishes. medicines, perfumes and disinfectants all cf these products of the hard woods are In demand. The forests of hard woods are more limited in extent in this country than the soft wood, but they meet with sufficient injury to threaten them with entire extinction. There are considerable quantities of wood used for the manufacture of hoops, barrels, tubs and pail, and only the hard species of trees are available for this work. A curious fact is that most of the polos used by hop growers to support their vines are Imported from Canida, or at least by those growers living along the great lakes. Many poles are used for the vineyards, but these eo far have been gathered on home territory. HANGING. MOSS. There are several other minor by-products that are used, but. they represent no great value yet, although their future has not been determined. The " moss which grows X)n the trees in tae Gulf State3 is In great d2mand by florists and for making pillows and mattresses, and quite a trade has sprung up in recent years. Gathering this moss from the tries has the advan-. tage cf Improving the forests instead of injuring them. The moss Is a parasitic growth that In time tends to smother the trees. Ilefore the Cotton-bagging Trust collapsed a few years ago ijreat efforts were made to utilize the long-leaf pne straw for cotton bagging, but lately very little has been heard from this infant industry. . In many parts of ths South large tracts of land are absolutely worthless without draining, and attempts have been made to grow ti;e osier willow on these millions of acres. The willow is In steady demand all of the time for making baskets, furniture and other articles, and unlimited quantities of the wood can be grown, upon the poor land3 of the South at a mere nominal cost. The few hundreds of acres already set out with the willow are doing so well that companies" are being formed to plant immense fields of it. There Is' no doubt but the plantations will prove of value, especially as the land can ba had at a very nominal cost. On the islands and keys skirting the western part of the ' peninsula of Florida, the finest cedar trees for making lead pencils have been growing for ages. Large factories for utilizing this cedar have been L in operation on the islands for many years. but now the woods are being denuded so rapidly that the supply Is nearly exhausted. After the destruction of the finest cedar forests .in the world, the companies are making arrangements to plant new one3 In - Germany to keep up the supply. The fact that ro one seems to have the ingenuity or progreslveness to plant and cultivate the cedar forests in their native islands inclines one to the belief that Americans have not yet opened their eyes to the wealth of their woods. In the aggregate all of these by-products of the forests are of greater value than the lumber and timber annually cut. RACE JUDGES TROLLEY CHAIR. It Will Carry Them on a Copper Wire a Mile in Tito 31inutes. New York World. The latest electrical device Is a chair to run on a trolley win;. A man can sit in this chair and fly through the air at the rate of thirty miles per hour, providing he does not slip his trclley. In which event he would be likely to come to &rief. The trolley chair was originally Invented for the purpose of enabling judges follow, a horrs race around the track. ytkAard' E. Sherman, of Chicago, is the lnverltor. It Is claimed that riany plans haVe been dsvl?d to enable Judjea to be constantly
near the horses upon a race track, but that as yet none have met with any particular degree of success, owing to the high speed that must be attained to enable the moving car to run with absolute safety at the rate of a mile in two minutes around a continual curve. The trolley chair has separate wires for support and for carryin;r the electric current to energize the motor. The intention Is to suspeJ the car upon wire three-fourths of an Inch in diameter. No. 16 copper wire being used to carry the current at 110 volts ami the supporting wire being suspended from supporting poles at the side of the track. The car is made Cf WOOd and 13 Of sufficient size to accommodate two persons. The motor is placed under the seat and is controlled by a braking device operated by the feet. The armature carries upon its shaft a wheel belted to another wheel mounted upon the shaft, which also carries the wheel by which the car is suspended. Swaying of the car while traveling at a high rate of speed is lessened to a great extent by the trolley arm, which is provided wi:h a stiff .spring. The Hawthorne race track, near Chicago, is now being equipped with this chair, and it Is Intended soon to give the system a practical test. The car will run somewhat baek of the horses, and the suspended judges, it is claimed, will easily be able to detect "Jockeying" or other improper practices. If the system is a success it may be extended to other uses.1 Messengers could be sent over a long distance by this mettiod. and It would be an easy thing to stretch a wire over wide rivers where no bridges exist. The current needed to drive the car might be borrowed from any neighboring el ire trie-light plant, and with a full head Of electricity turned on the flyinfj machine man would bs left out of sight.

Thirty-Seven American Armenians Iuiprisoneil at Beirut. BOSTON, Mass., Oct. 13.-The Armenians of Boston are considerabljr exercised by a dispatch received yesterday, from an Armenian merchant in Beirut, stating that the thirty-seven Armenian residents of Boston, Providence and New York who recently sailed from the latter port were immediately imprisoned at Beirut on arrival. The Ilnllet-Proof Shield. New York Mall and Exprsres. The London newspapers contain fuller accounts of the new bullet-proof shield invented by a British officer, of which some particulars have beeh furnished by the cable, and there seems to be no doubt that the contrivance accomplishes all that it professes to do. It is simply a plate of specially prepared chrome steel, with a slot in the top for the soldier's rifle. The weight is less than one-half that of a life guardsman's cuirass, and the material is absolutely proof against the British service bullet propelled by cordite through a Lee-Metford barrel at tnirty yards' distance. A bullet which would pass completely through an oak plank thirty Inches thick is powerless to do more than make a slight indentation on the plate, which Is only three-sixteenths of an inch thick. An aid of the Duke of, Cambridge tired live shots at one plate from a Lee-Metford rifle, and at the request of the Duke placed his shots as nearly as possible in the same Fpot, without effecting anything like perforation. Each bullet struck the shield with more than a foot-ten of energy. The Duke expressed his satisfaction at the results of the tests in the most emphatic terms and declared iA3 conviction that a problem which had defied the experts for years had been solved at last. To what extent, if at alb the shield can be used in actual warfare remains to be Droved, but it has clearly demonstrated its ability to stop bvdlets, and that, too, under conditions wholly free from the suspicions of trickery and reserve which marked the experiments with the .

The weak. emaciated, thin, pale an'd puny ate made strong; plump, round and rosy. Nothing so effective as' a strength restorer and flesh maker is known to medical cci'ence;tnis puts on healthy flesh not the fatof cod liver oil and its filthy compounds. It rouses every organ of the body to activity, purifies, enriches and vitalizes the blood so that the body feels refreshed and strengthened. If you are too thin, too weak, too nervous, it may be that the food, assimilation is at fault. A certain amount of bile is necessary for the reception of the fat foods in the blood. Too often the liver holds back this element which would help digestion. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery stimulates, tones up and invigorates the liver, nourishes the blood; and the muscles, stomach and nerves get the rich blood they require.
