7 There Are 2400 Disorders incident to the human frame, of which a majority are caused or pro moted by impure blood. The remedy is simple. Take Hood's Sarsaparilla. That this medicine radically and effectively purifies the blood is known to every druggist, known to hundreds of thousands of people who themselves or by their friends have experienced its curative powers. The worst cases of scrofula, the most agonizing sufferings from salt rheum and other virulent blood dis eases, are conquered by it, while those cured of boils, pimples, dys peptic and bilious symptoms and that tired feeling are numbered by millions.

He Ta Possessed of Great Will Powei ana Many Ace miiiUhmenta, From one who was intimately con nected with him In his youth I learn that his chief characteristic Is earnest ness, added to great will power. What ever he does, no matter how trivial, is attacked (I use the word advisedly) with such force and such determination that it Is invariably carried to a successful issue. For instance, all the world knows of his collection of coins, but few have heard of Its origin. One day when a small boy he was playing In the garden of the Qulrinal, and found a Plus IX. penny, with which he rush ed delighted to Queen Margherlta. She explained what It was, and incidentally told him about others more Important. From that moment he began to collect, and he has now become one of the greatest numismatists in the world. It is the same with swimming. He learn ed quickly, and reached such perfection that it was his custom to jump from a man-of-war into the open sea, have his swim, and return without help. Other accomplishments are music and painting. Queen Margherlta, who Is exceptionally fond of music, seeing her husband so indifferent to It, de cided that her son must play at least the plauo, If he had any talent at all. Masters were procured when he was a small boy, with the result that he Is a very fair pianist, and satisfies even the critical taste of his mother. Of painting he knows less, but can dash off a very respectable sketch, showing verve, but a lack of knowledge of color. But, above all and before all, the king Is a man of will, and, try as he may, no one can turn him once his mind Is made up. Rome Correspon dence Tall Mall Gazette. THE DUKE OF CONNAUGHT. Succeeds Kins; Kdward as Grnn 1 Mas ter of the Freemasons. King Edward VII. has ceased to be Grand Master of the Order of Freema sons, which office he held as the Prince of Wales. This Is in conform ity with the course adopted by the last Prince of Wales on his becoming Uegcnt and afterwards George IV. An especial Grand Lodge has elected the rUKK of coxNAUonr. Duke of Connaught as his Majesty's successor. It Is Interesting to note that only throe predecessors have stood between the Into Grand Master n-iid the last Prince of Wales who filled that office, namely, Lord Ulpon, who held the po sition from 1S70 to 1S74; the Earl of Kctlmul, who occupied It from 1844 to 1S70; and the Duke of Sussex, 1813 to 1813, who succeeded the Prince Regent. His Prophecy Came True. I'd ward Wiggles worth, "llollls pro fessor of divinity at Cambridge," in a little pamphlet published In the porten tous year of i77."i, must have had a cor rect Idea of the prosperity of this coun try during the century just closing, ns he predicted that the population of the "Hiltlsh American colonies" in 1900 would lie 80,000,000. Included In this estimate was Nova Scotia, now the Dominion of Canada, which with Its last recorded census re sult of 4,800,000 added to the 70,000,000 or the United States fulfills almost to the letter the accuracy of the Wiggles worth prophecy. And this somewhat remarkable forecast was not based up on any species of guess work, but upon a well defined and clearly constructed mathematical theory, which, reduced to plain words, can be best described in the language of Its author: "The British-Americans have doubled their numbers In every period of twenty-live years from their first plan tation." Taking this statistical fact as a basis for his calculations the Harvard divin ity professor constructed a system of reckoning the Increase of a country's population which history has shown to be as correct as his method was simple. Assuming that the 1775 population was 2.r00,000 Mr. Wigglesworth esti mated 5.000.000 for 1S00, 10,000,000 for 1825, 20.0lX,000 for 1850, 40,000.000 for 1875 and 80.000.000 for 1000, and the record of the United States census since its Initial taking In 1700 shows sub stantially these figures, as follows: Census of 1S00, B.30S.000; 1S25 (1S20), 0,033.000; 1S50, 23.191.0tX); 1S73 (1870). 38.1158,000; HUH), with Canada, 81,000, 000.
