NEIGHBORS HOSTILE
SOUTH AMERICAN REPUBLICS
AGAINST UNITED STATES.
Reasons for the Proposed Alliance
Against Us—Fear Growing Fever
of Expansion May Reach
After Them.
Rumors are afloat as to the hostility of
neighbors of ours to the south—Argen
tina, Brazil, Chile, Bolivia and Ecuador.
Fearing that Uncle Sam has designs of
annexing, or at least, grasping after, the
South American states, it is reported the
above mentioned countries have formed
against that ambitious one an alliance
offensive and defensive.
That our interests are vital in the por
tion of South America north of the
Amazon is unquestionable, and few of
our citizens will gainsay there is neces
sity for religious observance of the Mon
roe doctrine in lands bordering the
Caribbean, lands in the proximity to ttie
Isthmus of Panama; but there seems to
be a growing feeling among students of
political conditions that the states far
ther to the south need not concern us so
closely, in fact, that it would be well for
the United States to withdrew altogether
from these its Monroe protection.
With tlie exception of small strips of
Ecuador and Brazil, the five republics
in the reported alliance lie south of the
equator, in the region certain statesmen
suggest should be left to work out its
own salvation. To be sure, this is a very
large and important part of South
America, a land of great wealth, of great
possibilities, and we would very much
dislike to see any other nation, or na
tions. getting possession dowrn there.
Let us glance a bit at the various coun
tries making up so big a territory, pos
sessing so much real and so much po
tential wealth.
First Argentina. The Argentine na
tion, founded in 1810, experienced the
usual vicissitudes attendant on Latin
American experiments in self-gov
ernment, but the present Argen
tine republic dates back to 1862;
which number of years indicates stability
and prosperity of an unusual degree
for that region. From time to time
revolutions have worked havoc, but the
last one occurred 14 years ago, and at
present peace reigns and is promised
for the future. Argentina has now about
4,000,000 people within her borders;
more than one-third are foreigners,
and 92 per cent of the immigrants are of
the Latin race. Only recently Amer
icans have begun to come into the coun
try, but it is thought they will ere long
be an important factor. Buenos Aires,
the capital and chief port of Argentina,
stands at the mouth of the great La
Plata river, and is the largest city in
South America. It has a population of
almost a million, a population rapidly
increasing and made up of many for
eigners; nearly four hundred thousand
Italians; next the Argentines; then
Spaniards, French and Germans, and a
goodly number of English-speaking
people. The city is the chief political
and commerical center of the Argentine
country, and a prodigious amount of
shipping is entered at this port. Its
splendid docks extend along the river j
front for five miles.
In Brazil, “the Portuguese half of
South America,” dwell 18.000,000 people,
more than half the total number of folk
counted for South America. This vast
country, as yet practically undeveloped,
has wonderfully rich resources. The
United States takes about half of Bra
zil's exports (gets most of her coffee and
millions of dollars worth of her rubber
annually), and sends to her only one
fifth as much as it buys from her. The
Germans, shrewdest and most hustling
traders in lowest America, have ab
sorbed the trade of various provinces
of Brazil.
The Chileans Mr. Carpenter calls the
Yankees of South America. There are
about three million of them, alert, pro
gressive, prosperous people. The Chil
ean commonwealth has been a well
ordered one in the main, not constantly
disturbed by civil broils. It has warred
with Bolivia and Peru as to boundary
lines and had some internal troubles,
hut has maintained a government of sta
bility and strength. This “long, slim
land” is one of marvellous wealth, has
great store of precious metals as well
as other very valuable mineral deposits.
Agriculture, however, is the chief busi
ness of the country, and there is a very
rich farming class in Chile, people that
buy many goods.

POOR BUT AN HONEST MAN
Bishop Potter's Story of How He Was
Once Accused of Pilfering
Bedclothes.
$
Bishop Potter, the head of the Epis
copal church in this city, is not averse
to telling stories on himself, and at the
luncheon that followed a recent dea
conry meeting in his diocese he relat
ed more than one that put the laugh
on him. says the New York Mail. Men
tion being made of his alleged theft of
a toilet set, he laughed and said:
“The story is true. 1 was on one of
my trips and stayed with some friends
over night. They had made every ef
fort to make me comfort^de, among
other things placing on nft bureau a
beautiful silver-mounted tSfcet set. I
had my own old set with me, and, be
ing like King James in preferring old
friends to new ones, 1 put the silver
set away and used my own.
“Two days later 1 received a tele
gram from my friend about like this:
‘Where is the silver dressing set that
was in your room?’ Then I remem
bered that I had not restored the set
to its original place and telegraphed
back: ‘Am poor, but honest. Look in
upper drawer of bureau.’ They must j
have found the articles, for 1 have not
been arrested for stealing them.”
When this explanation had been ac
cepted the bishop told this on him
self:
“On another trip 1 visited an old
friend in an up-state parish. He was
a bachelor, whose housekeeper was a
typical old southern ‘mammy,’ whom
he had brought north with him. H1
made me comfortable and I went
farther on my visitations, stopping
again with him for luncheon on my
way back to the city. He was a little
embarrassed at something or other
and finally confided his trouble to me.
“ ‘You know,’ he said, ‘that 1 am a
bachelor. Well, I have the troubles of
a bachelor. When you said you would
stay overnight 1 found that. 1 had no
sheets for your bed. I hurried out and
borrowed a pair from a friend, with
out mammy’s knowledge. My friend
came in after you had gone and took
the sheets back with him. This morn
ing mammy came into my study with
rage in her eyes.
“‘“What's the matter, mammy?" I
asked, and she controlled her anger
long enough to say:
“‘“’Pears like you have mighty
queer people in dat church o’ yourn,
Marse George! Dat dere bishop man’s
done gone off wiv de very sheets offen
de bed, dat he has!””
“But. as I said before,” concluded
the bishop, earnestly, “I am really
poor, but honest.”
Prof. Villari. whose books on Savon
arola and Machiavelli are go highly
valuable to students of Italian history,
is the head of a literary family. His wife
is a writer, and now it is announced that
a son has written a history which is at
tracting considerable attention.
When you lose a dollar somebody else
finds one. But when somebody else loses
a dollar you do not find one. Thus do we
detect the wabble in the scales of fate.
A woman can always convince herself
that a queer story Isn't so bad if she
turns down the lights.
PURE BLOOD
Blood Impurities of Springtime—
Cause, Prevention
and Cure.
Dr. Hartman’s medical lectures are
! eagerly scanned by many thousand
• readers.
One of the most timely and interesting
lectures he ever delivered was hisrecent
I leetu re on the blood i mpurities (>f spri u g.
'l’hedoctorsaid in substancethatevery
spring the bloo<l is loaded with the
effete accumulations of win ter, derang
ing the digestion, producing sluggish
ness of the liver, overtaxing the kkl
| neys, interfering with the action of the
| bowels and the proper circulation of the
blood.
This condition of things produces
what is popularly known as spring
i fever, spring malaria, nervous exhaus
| tion, that tired feeling, blood thicken
ing and many other names.
I Sometimes the victim is bilious, dys
I peptic and constipated; sometimes he is
weak, nervous and depressed; and again
he may have eruptions, swellings and
other blood humors. Whichever it is,
the cause is the same—effete accumula
tions in the blood.
Nothing is more certain within the
whole rangoof medical science than that
a course of Perunain early springtime
will perfectly and effectually prevent
or cure this almost universal affection.
Everybody feels it in some degree.
A great majority are disturbed con
siderable. while a large percent, of the
human family are made very miserable
by this condition every spring.
Peruna will prevent it if taken in
time.
Peruna will cure it i f t alten as directed.
Peruna is the ideal spring medicine of
the medical profession.
1 f you do not derive prompt and satis
factory results from the use of Peruna,

full statement of your ease, and he will
be pleased to give you his valuable ad

Miss Marjory Hampton, Third Avenue, New York City, writes:
“Peruna is a fine medicine to take any season of the year.
Taken in the spring it tones up the system and acts as a tonic,
strengthening me more than a vacation, in the fall and winter
I have found that it cures colds and catarrh and also find that it
is invaluable to keep the bowels regular, acting as a gentle stimu
lant on the system. In fact, I consider it a whole medicine
chest.” Miss Marjory Hampton.
