Theodore Koosevelt, youngest president of the United States, will be only a few days over 60 years of age on election day. Probablmy no man living or dead has done, a greater variety of big things than he In half a century or has broken more precedents. His every act, official and private, has been a contradiction of established usage, yet every time he has knocked some moss-grown precedent Into the proverbial cocked hat, the world has declared, as soon as It has regained Its breath, that the Roosevelt way was best and has wondered why no one else thought of doing It that way years before. Roosevelt was scarce out of col lege before he claimed the center of the stage, and the spot-light of pub licity has been following him around ever since. In the legislature of New York state, as civil service commis sioner, as police commissioner of the metropolis, as assistant secretary or the navy, he plunged into the midst of events or, if there were no events In reach worth mentioning, he made them. When the police force of New York, Inefficient from dry rot and cancer ous with vice, came under his control, he shook It up until Its old bones rat tled and gave the grafters a scare that they remember to this day. He didn't quite convert the force into a band of evangelists, but he made the Tammany Tiger shiver In Its lair and caused the name of .T. Roosevelt to he known throughout the land. Made Dewey a Hero. Once upon u time, when he was second In command to that dear, Rood, peaceable secretary of the navy, John I). Long, his chief happened to be away from Washington for a few days. Buzz! Ring! Herore me se di te bureau chiefj in the department knew the day of the month, he had Ii-.-ued orders that dispatched ship loads of ammunition to the Asiatic squadron and prepared George Pow cy for the day that made him famous f.nd sent the Spanish hulks to the floor of Manila bay. He was the something-different politician. Ho told his political ene mies, as well as his political friends, the truth. He wore his heart on his steeve. It was unheard of. Before his day, to be a politician was to be a liar. He became the greatest poll tlclan of the age by telling the truth He was the something-doing sol dier as well as the something-differ ent politician. When he went to Cu ra, If there wasn't any fighting to he done, his men found that there was work to do. They dug kitchen sinks, they drilled, they got ready, and they stayed ready; so, when the time for action came, the charge up San Juan hill was a mere picnic to trose bronco-busters and grizzly-eat ers. Roosevelt loves a fight better than nine Irishmen out of 10, and the strain of Dutch In his blood makes him "stick" when once he mixes In. Like the Irish, he doesn't know vhen he Is licked, and many's the time he has won out after he had apparently been beaten to a finish. Sticks to Friends .nnd Foe. He sticks to his friends as grimly as he sticks to his foes, and the same dogged determination that makes him fight to the last ditch for what he lelleves Is right, places him at the back of the man he claims as a friend, no matter If there be a stack of affidavits as high as the Washing ton monument to prove the man unworthy- Just to show his friendship and his faith In human nature, Roosevelt has appointed more than one man to office whose record reached back to the door of the pen itentiary. Rut It should he said In the same breath that he has shown his uncompromising fairness by turn ing upon men found unworthy of his trust and has overwhelmed them with his wrath. There's nothing half-way about Theodore Roosevelt. He likes a man with all his heart and soul nnd vigor. If ho doesn't like him ho hates the rrnund he walks on, hates his family, his relatives, his ancestors, and his birthplace. What Is more, he is not at all slow to let the fact be known. Much as he loves a fight, ho loves peace better. But he makes no bones of saying that he's ready and willing tc fight for peace. He wants the United States to build the biggest t'avy In the world so that peace shall be universal. He wants the gun pointers of our navy to bo dead shots at five miles. If they are so known, what nation would war with us? If they are so recognized, what power would go to battle with another If Uncle Sam should say, "Let there be peace?" Lover of Work. Roosevelt loves work, and the harder the work the better he likes It. He also loves play after work'and he plays Just as hard as ho works. That Is where the great big boy crops cut In his disposition. He'd rather take a'15-mlle walk In the rain or a 70-mllo gallop over tho prairies, than sit In a box at the opera. He Isn't partial to grand opera, by the way, and will tell .you that bis favor ite melodies are "Garry Owen" and "A Hot Time In the Old Town To night." Walking, horseback riding, tennis, boxing, and single-stick play are his favorite recreations, and he'd rather meet and hobnob with an old backwoods guide than a politician In a plug hat. He hates plug hats. "I feel like a stuffed club In one ot them," he observed one day, "and If I were not holding a Job where I'm suppose to look like a stuffed club on certain occasions, I'm blessed If I'd wear one." Roosevelt does not use tobacco In any form, and although no tee-total-ler, he has very little use for a drunk ard. On one of his recent trips when he refused to take either a drink or a cigar at a banquet, one of the la dles present asked him if he had no vices? "I can swear like a blue streak," replied the president, with a grin, "would you like to hear me" . Roosevelt likes to preach little sermons on personal conduct, but as the world knows that he practices In private life what he preaches In public, Itforglves him for this trait. His fellow citizens have come to know that he Is very human, Indeed, and they like hjm all the better for It. They kiow that he is Impulsive, that he often leaps before he looks, and changes his mind with the ease of a summer wind. But what mat ters that, when they also know him to bo honest and sincere, that he de ttsts fpaud, that he places the mother on a higher hero plane than the sol dier, and that he is working with all his might and main to right the wrongs that oppress the people? Tho world knows, too, that Wall street has been scared stiff ever since he has been In office; that he settled the coal strike; that he stopped the wholesale slaughter of Russians and Japanese. It knows also that he tiled to reform our spelling, that he attempted to erase "In God We Trust" from the coins of the realm, and If ho liar his way the great corporations of the country would bo Controlled by the departments at Washington. For all these things, In spite of all thcc tilings, the vote at the last elec tion proved him to be the most popu lar man that ever ran for offlee In this or any other country, In this or any other period of written history.

There Is no way of making InMing friends like. "Making Good;" mid Doctor l'lerce's medicines well exemplify this, and their friends, after more than two decades of popularity, are numbered by tho hundreds of thousands. They have "made good" and they have not mude drunkards. A good, honest, square-deal medicine of known composition is Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. It still enjoys an Im mense sale, while, most of tho prepara tions that nave come into prominence in the earlier period of its popularity have "gone by the board" and are never moro heard of. Tliero must ho some reason for this long-tlino popularity and that is to bo found in its superior merits. When once given a fair trial for weak stomach. or for liver and blood affections, Its supe rior curative qualities are soon manliest; henco It has survived and grown In pop ular favor, while scores of less meritorious articles have, suddenly flashed into favor for a brief period ana then been as soon forgotten. For a torpid liver with its attendant Indigestion, dyspepsia, headacho, per haps dizziness, foul breath, nasty coated tongue, with bitter taste, loss of appetite, with distress after eating, nervousness and debility, nothing is so good as Dr. l'lerce's Ooldon Medical Discovery. It's an honest, square-deal medicine with all Its Ingredients printed on bottle-wrapper no secret, no hoeus-Kcu9 humbug, therefore oVm't ocrrit a substitute that the dealer may possibly make a little big ger profit. InM on your right to have wnat you can tor. Don't buv Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip tion expecting it to prove a "cure-all." It Is only advised for woman's special ail ments. It makes weak women strong and sick women well. Less advertised than some preparations sold for like purposes, lis sterling curative virtues sun maintain Its position In the front ranks, where it stood over two decades ago. As an In vigorating tonic and strengthening nerv ine It Is unequal!. It won't satisfy those who want "booze," for there Is not a drop of alcohol In It. Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pel eta. the oritii- tial Little Liver Pills, although the first pin oi meir Kina in tne market, still lead, and when once tried are ever afterwards In favor.
