WHAT HOME THINKS
THE POPE'S PHYSICIAN EN
DORSES AN AMERICAN
REMEDY.
Dr. Lapponl Uses Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills In His Practice Because Re
sults Meet His Expectations.,
Dr. Lnpponl, tho famous physician
to tho Vatlcnn, whoso name ImB re
cently como so greatly to tho front
on account of his unremitting atten
tion to His Holiness, the late Popo
Leo XIII., and tho high esteem and
confidence with which he is regurded
by tho present Pope, His Holiness,
Flux X., Ib a man of commanding
genius. He is more than a mere man
of Bclencoj ho is a man of original
and independent mind. Untrammeled
by the "etiquette" of the medical pro
fession, and having used Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills for Palo People in his prac
tice with good results, ho freely avows
the facts and endorses the value of
this remedy with an authority which
no one will venture to question.
Dr. Lapponl'a Letter.
"1 certify that I have used Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills in four cases
of tho simplo anemia of develop
ment. After a few weeks of treat
ment, the result came fully up to
my expectations. For that reason
1 shall not fall in tho future to
extend the uso of this laudable
preparation not only in tho treat
ment of other forms of the cate
gory of anemia or chlorosis, but
also in cases of neurasthenia and
the like." (Signed)
GIUSEPPE L.APPONI,
Via del Gracchi 332, Rome.
Tho "simple anemia of develop
ment" referred to by Dr. Lapponl is,
of course, that tired, languid condition
of young girls, whose development
to womanhood is tardy and whose
health at that period is so often Im
periled. His opinion of the value of
Dr. WilllamB' Pink Pills for Pale Peo
ple at that time is of the highest sci
entific authority and it confirms the
many published cases in which anemia
nnd other diseases of tho blood, as
well as nervous diseases, such as ner
vous prostration, neuralgia, St. Vitus'
dance, paralysis and locomotor ataxia
have been cured by these pills. They
nre commended to the public for their
efficiency In making new blood and
strengthening weak nerves. After
such an endorsement they will be ac
cepted by tho medical and bclentil'.c
world at their full value.
MEMORY HARD TO DEAT
Colored "Auntie's" Claim Tiat Was
Almost the Limit.
In tho tlnys of Itanium, nn old
"auntlo" lived In East Tennessee who
wns reputed to be of gront age. LIko
all of her kind rIiu was extremely
proud of tho dlKtlnrtIn, and never
underestimated her age in tho least.
She had outgrown thnt weakness de
cades past.
Barnum heard of her, and conclud
ing that if sho was as old as rumor
made her sho would bo n vnluablo ac
quisition to his show, ho sent an agent
down to mako an investigation. Sho
caught tho direction of tho wind very
promptly, and wbb prepared for any
test question that might bo asked.
Gradually the agent led up to the
crucial Interrogatory, and at last
said:
"Aunty, do you remember George
Washington?"
"Doqa I recomember George Wash
ington? W'y lawsn-massy. Mlstub, I
reckon I does. I orter, ortent I? For
I done missed lilm. Wo played to
gether cvy day when he wns a H'l
chile."
"Well, do you remember anything
about tho Revolutionary war?"
"G'way, chile! Yes, Indeed I docs.
Honey. I stood dnr lots er times, an
seed do bullets tlyln around', thick
er'n rain drops."
"Yes well, how about the fall of
the Roman empire? Do you recollect
anything ubout that?"
"The old woman took a good, long
breath. In fact, It amounted to a
sigh. She reflected for a few mo
ments, and said:
"Do fact Is, Honey, I was purty
young den, an' I doesn't have n very
extinct recommembrnnco 'bout dnt;
but I does 'member, now dat you
speaks of hit, dat I did hcah de white
folks tell about hearing' some'pn
drap."

Why Diamonds Increase In Price.
"Diamonds aro very high now, and
they aro apt to go higher still," said
Mr. Irving L. Russell.
"Within the last two years the In
crease in the cost of diamonds has
not been less than 40 per cent. The
big South African company that virtu
ally controls tho diamond situation of
tho world claims that tho ground
which holds tho stones is gradually
giving out, and that with the end of
production in sight tho advance in
price is natural and legitimate. Wheth
er this claim is founded on fact, or
whether it is an excuse for curtailing
tho output, no one outside of tho com
pany knows. Anyway, it is a wise
policy for owners of really valuable
Rcni to hold them, as tho tendency Is
constantly toward appreciation In values.-'

THE UNITED STATEO WILL GOON
KNOCK AT THE DOOR3 OF
CANADA FOR WHEAT.
A Crop of 00,000,000 Eushcls of Whest
Will De the Record of 1901.
The results of tho lurching In
Western Canada nre not yet con.plct
cd. but from information nt hand, It Is
safe to say that tho average per acre
will be reasonably high, and a fair
estimate will place tho total yield of
wheat at 60.000,000 bushels. At pres
ent prices this will add to tho wealth
of the farmers nearly 500,000,000.
Then think of tho immense yield of
oats and barley, and tho largo herds
of cattle, for all of which good prices
will be paid.
Tho following official telogram wns
sent by Honorable Clifford Slfton. Min
ister of the Iuterior, to Lord Strath
cona, High Commissioner for Can
ada: "Am now able to state definitely
that under conditions of unuMial diffi
culty In Northwust n fair acrage crop
of wheat of good quality has been
reaped and Is now securo from sub
stantial damage. The reports of in
jury by frost and rust were grossly
exaggerated. Tho wheat of Manitoba
and Northwest Territories will aggre
gate from flfty-fhc to sixty million
bushels. The quality Is good nnd the
price Is ranging around one dollar
per bushel."
Frank II. Spearman. In tho Satur
day Kvenlng Post, says:
"When our first transcontinental
railroad was built, learned men at
tempted by Isotherraan demonstration
to prove that wheat could not profit
ably be grown north of where tho line
was projected; but tho real granary
of the world lies up to 300 miles north
of the Canadian Pacific railroad, and
the day is not definitely distant when
tho United States will knock at the
doors of Canada for its bread. Rail
road men see such a day; it mny bo
hoped that statesmen also will seo It,
and arrange their reciprocities while
they may do so gracefully. Americans
already have swarmed Into that far
country nnd to a degree have taken
the American wheat field with them.
Despite the fact that for years a little
Dakota station on the St. Paul road
Eureka held tho distinction of being
the largest primary grain market In
the world, the Dakotas and Minnesota
will one day yield their palm to Sas
katchewan" The bays of Cuba aro alive with
