PHILIPPINES AT WORLD'S FAIR Complete Exhibition of island People and Industries Covers Forty-seven Acres and Is Independent of Larger SLow. Not even In tho heart of Manila city could there be found forty-seven acres of Philippine territory as interesting as that amount of space covered by the Islands' display at the World's Fair. Here is an expositionvithiu an ex position , a little wheel that revolves independently of the larger one encom passing it. Scores of buildings are filled with ex hibits , native life is depicted by as many different villages as there are tribes on the islands , military drills are given by Philippine troops , and con certs are rendered by native bands. For its amusement features the Philip pine exposition has the humorous Igor- SOTJTH rXTRAXCE PAIiACE OF LIBERAL A1IT3WORLD'S FAI1J. rote , who dines on dog meat , and visitors are entertained by Visayau actors and actresses. Nothing is lack ing to make the show complete. The Administration building is a rep : lica of the government olflces in Ma nila , while the Art and Education building reproduces in miniature the cathedral within the walled city , even the mellowed tints of age being faith fully rendered. A section of the an- ' cient but still serviceable town wall has been reconstructed to serve the dou ble purpose of a gateway to the show and a museum of arms and war relics. The other main edifices are types of Filipino homes , being built of undress ed timber , bamboo and rattan , with thatched roofs and broad verandas. Then there are the tribal villages nestling under the trees , some of the houses perched high up among the boughs , others on piles above the wa ters of the Arrowhead lake , all of them actual dwellings fashioned of native materials by native workmanship and illustrating the manners , customs and pursuits of their occupants. Here are women weaving a coarse cloth on a rude hand loom , others making bas kets , others tending irrigated fields of rice. One group of men are in village council , trying an offender according to their tribal laws ; others are slowly moving in a circular dance to the thump of tomtoms and the clang of brass gongs ; others , again , are smelting iron by the aid of a primitive but most in genious bellows , the constituent parts of which arc a bamboo tube and an air tight mop of feathers working therein like the piston of a syringe. And these are but a few of an almost endless va riety of life pictures. The ethnological problem is a some what complicated one ; but , although there are no fewer than sixteen races represented among the village dwellers , the scouts and the constabulary , each race speaking its own dialect and fol lowing its own customs , all may be roughly classified into four groups the true aboriginals or non-Malays , the pagan Malays , the Christian Malays and the Mohammedan Malays. The first are the dwarf Negritos , with dark skins and woolly heads , wearers of scanty raiment , proficient in the use of the bow and poisoned arrow , a race of nomads and forest dwellers , pagans pure and simple. They live in their own stockaded village. Next to them are the Igorrotes , whose origin is traced back to the first wave of Malay invasion. Here , again , we have scanty clothing , amounting almost to nudity , but copper colored skins , long wavy tresses , pleasant fea tured faces and fine physiques , even though the stature be small. Among these pagan Malays are the head hunt ers and the dog caters. They are sav- nges , yet have their code of laws and a knowledge of several primitive indus- .ries. The Christian Malays , produced by .he second wave of invasion , are rep resented by the Visayaus. a tall and jandsouio race , dressing well , living in ) retty homes , skilled in weaving , dye- ng. basket making , hat making , wood carving and other handicrafts , musi cians of no mean merit , the one group of natives who came early and thor oughly under the influence of the early Spanish settlers. Very different are the Moros , who swept into the islands from the Malay peninsula last of all , bringing with them their Mohammedan religion , also a knowledge of gunpowder acquired with the Koran from the Arabs fana tics like their teachers , pirates , blood- UUrsty , treaclieroua and vindictive f lows , ever atvar among themselves and with the wljoU * outside world. De spite their ferocity they are a clever j race , dress handsomely , have their sul- ; tans and their slaves and are expert seamen , while long continued pillage on the high seas has surrounded them with many of the luxuries and conven iences of western civilization. The buildings of Agriculture. Forest ry and Fisheries show all the varied ( natural products , also the extremely primitive processes as yet in vogue , while in the Women's building we are introduced to a number of native man ufactures , including the beautiful fab rics from the jusi , banana and pine apple fibers. This information is collat ed in the Building of Commerce , where a unique and most effective method , of exhibiting is followed. In one hall are samples of all the articles produced for export , among which manila liber , of course , holds the chief place of prom inence , while in a second hall are all the manufactures from every country that are imported and find a ready market among the populace. Thus ihe business man gets a dual lesson. lie secy what he : an profitably tiie from the islands , and also what he may profitably send to them. When it is added that a large number of represent ative Filipinos have been brought over to visit the Exposition and study Ainer- can business methods and manufac tures , it will be recognized that great benefit both to the islands and to the world at large must result from this work of mutual enlightenment.

A unique exhibit at the World's Fail- was prepared by the agricultural de partment of the University of Califor nia. It is a large map. so colored as to show the character of the various soils of the state. It gives a clear idea of the situation and the extent of the arable and untillable sections. In the locali ties that cannot be cultivated arc shown the Sierras , the lava beds and the desert. The map indicates the lo cation of the cultivable portions of the mountains and Mohave plateau and shows the nature of the foothills and valleys of that wonderful state.

Eight months ago I was BO ill that 1 was compelled to lie or sit down nearly all tho time. My r.tomach was so weak and upset that I could keep nothing on it and I vomited frequently. I could not urinate without great pain and I coughed so much that my throat ana lungswere ravr and sore. The doctors pro nounced it Bright's disease and others said it yraa consumption. It mattered little to mevhafc they called it and I had no dc- siro to live. A sister visited me from St. Louis and inked mo if I Lad ever tried "Wino of Cardui. I told her I bad not and sho bought a bottle. I believethat it saved my life. I believe many Avornen could save much Buffer ing if they but knew of its value. s &pv Don't you vrant freedom from pain ? Tako Wine of Cardui and make one cupreme effort to be well.
