That this medicine radically and

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.

Re la Poaaeaeed of Greet Will Power

From one who was intimately con
nected with him lu his youth I learn
that bis 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
kuows of his collection of coins, but
few have heard of Its orlglu. One day
when a small boy he was playing lu
the garden of the QulrlnaU and found
a Plus IX. penny, with which he rush
ed delighted to Queen Marguerlta. 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, lie learn
ed quickly, and reached such perfection
that It was bis 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 Marguerlta, who
Is exceptionally fond of music, seeing
her husband so Indifferent to It, de
elded that her son must play at least
the piano. If he had any taleut at all
Masters were procured when he was a
small Toy,-wtfr-the result that he la sr
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.

His Prophecy Came True.
Edward WIgglesworth, "Hollls pro
Esur of divinity at Cambridge," In a
little pamphlet published In the porten
tous year of 1775, must have had a cor
rect Idea of the prosperity of this conn
try during the century Just closing, as
he predicted that the population of the
'British American colonies" in 1000
would be 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
of 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-five years from their first plan
tatlon."
Taking this statistical fact as a basis
for his calculations the Harvard dlvln
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 2.500,000 Mr. WIgglesworth est!
mated 5,000,000 for 1800, 10,000,000 for
1825, 20,000,000 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
stantlally these figures, as follows
Census of 1800, 5,308,000; 1825 (1820)
0,633,000; 1850, 23,101,000; 1875 (1870)

Dr. Hartman, the compounder of
Peruna, once said. In a lecture to
women: "A great number of women
consult me every year. I often have
occasion to say to these patients:
'I fear you have catarrh, madam.'
They will generally reply, 'Ob, no, I
never had catarrh. My nose Is per
fectly clear, and my breath la not bad.
1 am not troubled with coughing or
pitting, or any other disagreeable
symptom of cotsrrn.' 'Hut. my dear
madam, you may have catarrh all the

In the head. You
may have catarrh of

Catarrh may attack any organ of the

are one hundred cases of catarrh of

of the head. Most people think, be
cause they have not catarrh of the
head, they have not catarrh at all.
This Is a great mistake, and Is the
cause of many cases of sickness and
