COST OF ENGLAND'S WAR.
' Says the Walla Walla Statesman : In
the wars of the present and of the pre
vious century England has expended
5,000,000,000. Almoet incessantly since
1700 England has been prosecuting war
and paying the cost of it, either in alii
ar.ce with other European nations or
against barbarous or eenii-civilized na
tions singled liH mled.
The lirel of I lie wars in which Eng
land engaged in the eighteenth centnry
was against the French, England hav
ing as its, allies Holland, Prussia, Han
over and .Portugal. It culminated in
the treaty of Utrecht in 1713, alter an
- expenditure (relatively much larger in
those days) of $900,000,000.
The English war against the Canadian
colonists, who were favorable to the
French, but who were without adequate
resources to withstand the power of the
English, followed, at a cost of $300,000,
000, and then followed the war against
the American" patriot colonists south of
the Canadian border line the Revolu
tionary wa". The cost to England of
the Revolutionary war is given in the
official figures ofthe Engl lib, war office
at $600,000,000.
The closing years of the eighteenth
centnry and the early years of the nine
teenth were years of strife and war in
which England took an active part, but
never single handed. Her first alliance
war with' Russia, Prussia, Sardinia, Por
tugal, Italy, and the minor German
etates against France. That was in
3793. The next alliance, six years later,
included the same countries, with Tur
key, Naples, the Barbary states and
Austria in addition as allies of England.
The combination of European nations,
of which England was a par.t in 1805, in
cluded England,. Russia, Austria, Swe
den and Naples. In 1809 England and
Austria combined against France, and
in 1813 all the great powers ot Europe
and most of the minor ones, combined
against Napoleon in what was known
afterwards as ''the seventh coalition."
While these wars were in progress in
Europe, England carried on other wars,
particularly against the United States
(the war of 1812), and in India, and
during this period, beginning in 1793
and closing in 1815, the total sum ex-,
pended ,by England for war and naval
purposes was 14,000,000,000.. Such was
the debt of England'at the close of the
last war with the United States, but it
"tias been greatly reduced since. The
Crimean war, in which England engaged
against Russia, with France, Turkey
and Sardinia as its allies, cost England
$350,000,000, and subsequent wars and
encounters in India, in Southern Africa,
where the Boers proved a sturdy foe, in
Egypt and elsewhere have entailed con
siderable .cost upon the -English treas
ury, but very much less than the ex
pense of fighting with civilized soldiers
in well-equipped armies. The present
debt of England, exclusive of 'the debt
; of English . dependencies, which is $2,
000,000,000. is $3,300,000,000. "
The end of the century is bristling
with questions for settlement. Al
though complications elsewhere have
given Turkey a breathing spell, her dis
solution is inevitable. The English, in
volved with Venezuela and courting
trouble in Africa, are raising momentous
issues. The Alaska boundary is unset
tled, and is no mean affair. The end of
the Japanese-Chinese war has not been
reached, and. various difficulties may
arise over the division of the spoils.
Besides these there are minor troubles,
which are shadowed by greater compli
cations. There is plenty to interest the
student of affair?, and the geographies of
the next decade wilt contain eome rad
ical changes
Judge Morrow, in the United States
court at San Francisco, has decided that
every person born in this country is a
citizen of the United States. 1 The ques
tion, is one that long has been in con
troversy, and which is not settled by
this decision, as the collector of the port
will appeal to the United States supreme
ourt. With Indians and Chinese as
citizens, the politician has new material
to work upon.
-The United States is not' without
friends in Europe. It is said Russia
has offered to lend this country $400,000,
000 as a token of friendship. It is
hardly possible that such' an offer will
te made to England by any independ
ent nation.'.

THE BUSINESS MAN'S LUNCH.
Hard Work and Indigestion go
Hand in Hand.
Concentrated thought, continued in, robs
the stomach of necessary blood, and this ia
also true of hard physical labor.
When a five horse-power engine is made
to do ten horse-power work something is
going to break. Very often the hard
worked man coming' from the field or the
office will "bolt" his food in a few min
utes which will take hours to digest. Then
too, many foods are about as useful in the
stomach as a keg of nails would be in a
fire under a boiler. -The ill-used stomach
refuses to do its work without the proper
stimulus which it gets from the blood and
nerves. The nerves are weak and " ready
to break," because they do not get the
nourishment they require from the blood,
finally the ill-used brain is morbidly wide
awake when the overworked man at
tempts to find rest in bed.
The application of common sense in the
treatment of the stomach and the whole,
system brings to the busy man the full en
joyment of life and healthy digestion when
he takes Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets to
relieve a bilious stomach or after a too
hearty meal, and Dr. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery to purify, enrich and
vitalize the blood. The " Pellets " are tiny
sugar-coated pills made of highly concen
trated vegetable ingredients which relieve
the stomach of all offending matters easily
and thoroughly. They need only be taken
for a short time to cure the biliousness,
constipation and slothfulness, or torpor, of
the liver; then the "Medical Discovery"
should be taken in teaspoon ful doses to in
crease the blood and enrich it. It has a
peculiar effect upon the lining membranes
of the stomach and bowels, toning up and
strengthening them for all time. The
whole system feels the effect of the pure
blood coursing through the body and the
nerves are vitalized and strengthened, not
deadened, or put to sleep, as the so-called
celery compounds and nerve mixtures do
but refreshed and fed on the food they
need for health. If you suffer from Indi
gestion, dyspepsia, nervousness, and any
of the ills which come from impnre blood
and disordered stomach, you can cure,
yourself with Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery which can be obtained at any j
drug store in the country. . I
