It isn't much trouble
for a really healthy man
to be good humored.
Jollity and exhuberant health are a pro
' verbial combination. The hearty man wh
is always laughing doesn't have any trouble
with bis digestion. It bas been said thai
laughing makes people healthy. The truti
is that health makes people laugh.
It is impossible to estimate the tre
mendous influence of health upon bmnan
character. A man with a headache will
not be in a happy, contented frame of
mind. A man who suffers from a weak
stomach and an impaired digestion will sit
and a-rumble through the best meal ever
prepared. A bilious man who is not a
bore, is deserving of a place in a museum.
A nervous man who is not petulent and
fault-finding is a curiosity. All these con
ditions lead to grave diseases, when the
victim becomes not only disagreeable, but
dependent as well. A wise wife will real
ize that while the old saying that a ' man's
heart is in his stomach," is not literally
true, it is a fact that his stomach sweetens
or sours his character according as it is
healthy or unhealthy. Dr. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery is the best of medicine
for the conditions described. It makes
the weak stomach strong, the impaired
digestion perfect, invigorates the liver,
purifies and enriches the blood and tones
the nerves. It tear down half-dead, inert
tissues and replaces them with the firm
muscular tissues of health. It builds new
and healthy nerve fibres and brain cells.
It dissipates nervousness and melancholy
and imparts mental elasticity and courage.
It is the best of all known medicines for
nervous disorders.

Over 20,000 Vehicle Drivers Strike ane
Militia Is Called Out.
RIO JANEIRO, Jan. 17. Over 20,0tX
drivers of nil kinds of vehicles went
on a strike yesterday. A small fac
tion of mechanics, headed by Cuero
Preto, a brother of Carlos Alfonso
and Malvino Reia, attempted to tak0
advantage of the situation. Numer
ous groups attacked different points,
tearing up the street car rails and de

small force of cavalry dispersed tho
rioters with difficulty. The city hai

Thomas B. Reed Says Selfishness Is
the Mainspring of Progreas.
NEW YORK, Jan. 17.-Thomas B.
Reed, speaking at the annual meet
ing of the University Settlement
Society, Is In this city, said that he
had always been attracted by the
study of what wthat might be termed
the Genesis of the human race and, In
fact, he had talked and written a
great deal more on the subject than
he ever knew, trying to put prophesy
in the place of knowledge.
"Theire is something in the nature of,
man," he said, "that makes us stop
and succor the weaker man or, if we
do not, we suffer pains and penalties
ourselves. Men ere bound together
I say, by the Almighty. If not out of
courtesy or kindliness, then for our
own sake, we must help our friends,
It Is not merely charity which con
strains us it Is something stronger
selfishness the gw-at master of the
human race.
"Selfishness will accomplish more
than the saintller virtues. So It Is to
the Interest of each one of us that all
should be lifted to our own level. And
that Interest certainly applies to this
spot, where there are more people to
the square mile, I had almont said to
the square yard, than anywhere olM
on the globe."
Mr. Reed then discussed the old
question a to why people will flock
to the cities In spite of the fact that
poets tn all agvs have sung the uper-
i,r advantages of the country, and all
literature Is filled with accounts of
the squalor of the cities. As an Illus
tration of the difficulty of raising peo
ple to the higher level ho spoke of thO(
