Much bus beeu written about the
wealth o f the Osage Indians. These
fortunate people as a tribe are per
haps the richest people on earth.
To begin with, they have something
like $S.OOO,<XX) ou deposit with the
United States government. This large
sum is drawing a good rate of inter
est, sufficient to give each member of
the tribe $164 per annum. They also
have about l,6tX),0!X) acres of lind,
which, in view of the immense fields
of gas and oil now being developed, Is
worth at a conservative estimate $5
an acre. This augments tlieir money
holdings $8,090,000 and gives a grand
total of $16,000,000.
If this sum
should be divided equally among the
1,913 living Usages, each would have
$6,272.85.
Besides the regular annuity derived
from interest on funds on deposit, each
Osage gets a considerable sum of
money received from the annual rent
als of the tribal pastures. To this is
now being added that of oil and gas
royalties. The full value o f this item
is difficult to arrive at, from the fact
that frequent new developments aug-
! ment the montnly revenue from this
I source. At this time the tribe is draw
ing something like $ 12.000 monthly
from oil and gas royalties, or about
i $75 per capita per annum, amounting
I in all to nearly $250 a year which each
! Osage receives as his pro rata share
of the income from their tribal funds.
Aside from this, the Osage Journal
reports that there are many members
of the tribe who have private fortunes
of considerable volume. These private
holdings ranged from the common farm
home, equipped with the ordinary con
veniences and comforts of life, to pa-
i latial mansions and live stock and oth
er personal property holdings valued at
! many thousands of dollars. More than
. a dozen Osage Indians are rated as
owning property valued at from $10,-
000 to $20,(XX) or more, and several flf
them have commodious country homes,
containing from ten to twenty rooms.
These persons are not all mixed bloods,
but a number of them are full-blooded

We do not hesitate to say that a timely use of Castoria would save a ma
jority of these precious lives. Neither do we hesitate to say that many of these
infantile deaths are occasioned by the use of narcotic preparations. Drops, tinctures
and soothing syrups sold for children’s complaints contain more or less opium, or
morphine. They are, in considerable quantities, deadly poisons. In any quantity
they stupefy, retard circulation and lead to congestions, sickness, death. Castoria
operates exactly the reverse, but you must see that it bears the signature of
Chas. H. Fletcher. Castoria causes the blood to circulate properly, opens the
pores of the skin and allays fever.

In
an article in The Outlook for July, 1899, by George Kennan, who beard Quesada
■peak at the Esteban Theatre, Matanzas, Cuba, he said:
“ I have seen many
audiences under the spell of eloquent speech and in the grip of strong emotional
exitement, but I have rarely witnessed such a scene as at the close of Quesada’s
eulogy upon the dead patriot, Marti.”
In a letter to The Peruna Medicine
company, written from Washington, D. C., Senor Quesada says:
“ Peruna I can recommend as a very good medicine, i
! It is an excellent strengthening tonic, and it is also an ef- j
I ficacious cure for the almost universal complaint of ca- j

Dr. A. F. Feeler, o f 8t. Louis. Mo., says : “ I have prescribed your Castoria In

Dr. E. Down, of Philadelphia. Pa., sa y s: *‘ I have proscribed your Castoria In
my practice for many years wilfi great satisfaction to myself and benefit to my
putleuta.”
Dr. J. E. Waggoner, o f Chicago, 111., says : ” 1 can most heartily recommend
your Castoria to the public as a remedy for children s complaints. I have tried
It and found It o f great value.”
Dr. Edward Parrish, o f Brooklyn. N. Y., says : “ I have used your Castoria In
my own household with good results, and have advised several patients to use it
for Its mild laxative effect and freedom from harm."
Dr. J. B. Elliott, of New York City, sa y s: ‘ Having during the past six years
prescribed your Castoria for Infantile stomach disorders. 1 most heartily commend
its use. The formula contaiua nothing deleterious to the most delicate of children.”
Dr. C. G. Sprague, o f Omaha, N eb, sa y s: ‘ Your Castoria is an Ideal medicine
for children, and i frequently prescribe it. W hile 1 do not advocate the indis
criminate use of proprietary medicines, yet Castoria Is an exception for coudltioua
whieh arise in the care of childreu.”
Dr. J. A. Parker, of Kansas City, Mo., says : “ Your Castoria holds the esteem
o f the medical profession in a manner held by no other proprietary preparation. It
is a sure and reliable medicine for Infants and children. In fact, it is the universal
household remedy for infantile ailments.”
Dr. H. F. Merrill, o f Augusta, Me., soys : ‘‘Castoria is one of the very finest
and most remarkable remedies for infants and children. In my opinion vonr Castoria
has saved thousands from an early grave. 1 can furnish hundreds or testimonials
from this locality as to its efficiency and merits.”
Dr. Norman M. Geer, o f Cleveland. Ohio, says : “ During the Inst twelve years
I have frequently recommended your t asteria as one o f the best preparations of tho
kind, being safe In the hands o f parents and very effective in relieving children’s
disorders, while the ease with which such a pleasant preparation can be administered
is a great advantage.”
Dr. F. H. Kyle, o f St. Paul. Minn., ra y s: “ It afTords me pleasure to add my
name to the long list of those who have used and now endorse your Castoria. The
fact of the Ingredients being knovu through the printing of the formula on tho
