COST OF GOVERNMENT.
Tho expenditures of tho United
States government are much leas in
proportion to population than those
of many other of the leading nations
of tho world. This fact Is shovfo by
& statement just published by tho u
pnr ment of commerce and labor
through Its bureau of statistics show-
ing the population revenuos expon
dltures and Indebtedness of the prin
c pal court'ries of tho world It shows
that while tlio expenditures or e' CQed that of U)0 bannor yenr 1900
Vntted States with 80 millions of . oertalniy that u0 oia for 1904
1897. when Judge Parker was elected
chief Justice by a majority of 00889
following tho presidential election of
189C whan .Maor McKlnley scored
the phenomenal lead of 208409. In
the three gubernatorial elections
since 1S97 that Is In 1898 In 1900 and
1902 the Republican majority fell off
largely from the presidential vo e of
1810. At the last ejection in 1902
political parties resumed their normal
condition a d Governor Odell had
a plurality of only S.SOJ winning by
a sera'ch.
Exports Of manufactures from the
United States seem Hkoly to make
thalr hlghost reoord In tho fiscal year
which ends with tho moht Ju"0
1904. In the eight mofun. ending
with February for which tho depart-
ment of commerce and Ubor through
ls bureau of statistics announces the
figures of export of manufactures tho
total Is 20 million dollars larger than
In tho corresponding e'ght months of
tho fiscal year 1900 which was tho
record year In exports of manufact-
ures. For the eight months onding
with February 1904 tho total oxporta.
tlon of manufao tiros was $288100924
against $208587972 In tho correspond-
ing months of 1900. While conditions
n tho far east are causing a consider-
able diminution in the exports of cot-
'on manufactures from the United
States practically all of tho other im-
portant exports show a marked in-
crease and !t seems not lmprobablo
that the grand total for tho year will
victims much of poverty and suffer-1
Ing comes from other causes
For Instance:
Society is to Indifferent it permits
human beings to work in illy venti-
lated and fllthy sweat shops It neg-
lects to. filler the water the people
Jrlnk It neglects to provide broa th-
ing parks and public ba'hs. It allows
men and women to live In un whole-
omo tenements. In a multitude or
ways It Impcses m'sery and sickness
on those for whom It ought to caro.
And so.
Society knowing these things be
gins to foe Its responsibility. bo-
sons to foel that tho welfare of i1' Is
bound up In the welfare of each.
It is significant that nowadays you
seldom hoar tho word "almsgiving."

THE OLDEST AND BEST
BLOOD PURIFIER
THE GREATEST OF ALL TONICS.
A Spring Medicine thai adds vigor and strength to the system
purifies and enricL'is ihe Blood and lays the foundation for a
strong constitution and good health during thz hot sultry summer.
Most everybody feels bad in the spring. Some have no particular ailment but are just
tired worn out and totally unfit for work or anything else that requires energy or effo-t.
They mope around upon the border-land of invalidism irritable peevish hysterical and
unreasonable.
A good appetite in the spring is a rarity and we sicken at the sight of food or thought
of eating and what little we do cat is a burden to the stomach and a tax upon the digestion.
Warm weather is sure to bring out the hidden poisons germs and seeds of disease that
have been collecting in the blood and system dur-
ing winter and you may look for some old chronic
trouble to make its appearance. It is n time too
when boils and carbuncles and pustular or scaly
skin eruptions like eczema and tetter pay their
annual visits and make life miserable by their
intense pains and intolerable itching and burning.
The fight for health should begin before any
warning symptoms of physical collapse are felt or
before the seeds of disease have time to germinate
if we would avoid the usual spring sickness ; and
with S. S. S. the acknowledged king of blood
purifiers and greatest of all tonics you can put
your blood and system in such perfect condition
and so strengthen the constitution that one may be as free from sickness and as vigorous and
strong during the trying months of spring and depressing summer season as at any other time.
S. S. S. not only builds you up hut searches out and destroys iny poisonous germs or
impurities that may be lurking in the blood. The benefits derived from the use of S. S. S.
are permanent because it acts directly on the blood and purifies and cleanses it of all impure
matter leaving nothing to cause fermentation and deterioration of this life-giving fluid.
In selecting your blood purifier and spring tonic get one that long experience and thor-
ough test have proven the best. In S. S. S. 3'ou will find a remedy whose purifying proper-
ties are unquestionable and just such a tonic as your system needs.. Ask your druggist for
S. S. S. there is nothiug else just as good.
For the past 40 years we have had a standing offer of $1000 for proof that S. S. S. con-
tains the least particle of any mineral whatever and this offer is still open.
NATURE'S REMEDY
PURELY VEGETABLE
Gentlemen : For over four yeara 1 suffered with
general deb.llty causing a thorough breaking
down of ray system so that I wasnnablo to attend
to my household dutlos. I had tried other medi-
cines which did not remove me. Seven years ago
my cousin who had been benefited by S. S. S.
told mo about it. I tried It and It cured me. I havu
been able to attend to my household duties ever
since experiencing no inconvenience whatever;
in fact I am able to work in the garden as well as
my house
I heartily reoommend S. S. S. to all who may
feel tho need of a thoroughly good blood tonlo.
feeling sure they will be benefited thereby.
Yours truly
