; Bat a' recent sUttment nude by the
bareaa of lUUitlci shows by actual fig
ares that fiie United States expenditures
la proportion to Its .population, aie
much less than those of many leading
nations in ine worio, j .
This report shows that while the ex
: pendltureof theUait48tte4, withlO.
OOOOO people, to 840,000,000, that of
the United Klngdoia, with 43,000,000
people, is $898,000,000; that of France,
With 89,000,000 people, if $695,000,000;
that of Germany, with 68,000,000
pie, 1568,000,000; while in practically
very country asldefiom China and In
dia, with their enormous ' populatibn,
the per capita of government expendi
tures is greater than In the United
States.
The bureau report placej the popula
tion of the United fltatet at 80,872,090,
the government expenditure in 1908 at
$640,328,000, and the per capita expen
diture' $7.97. The per capita govern
ment expenditure of Canada If given at
$9.80; the German empire, $9.46; Italy,
$10.97; Austria-Hungary, $14,27; Bel
glum, $17.40; France, $17.84; the United
Kingdom, $81.89, and Australia, $37.69,
Russia's annual expenditure is put, for
the latest available yar,at $l,li6,095,00)
as against $844,883,000 In the United'
States, but the fact that Russia's popur
latlon is given at 141,000,000 brings the
per capita expenditure to about the fig
ure shown by the United States. -.The
table presenting these figures of
population and government expendi
tures includes all couattles for which
data on this subject can be bad, and Its
aggregates show for the countries In
question a total population of 1,608,000
000 and government (expenditures
amounting to $7,989,856,000, with gov-'
eminent revenues amounting to $7,901,
486,000. The table la question also
shows In the case of each country the
excess of revenue or expenditure In the
latest available year, and la this particu
lar the United States also presents a
satisfactory showing, tit excess of
revenues being greater than that of any
other country, while ia many countries
the expenditures exceed the revenues.
For the latest available year the United
States shows an exoeas of revenues over
expenditure amounting to $60,000,000,
while Franoe shows aa excess of reva
ues amounting to only $M,000; Ger
many, an excess of expenditures over
revenues amounting t $67,000,000, and
the United Kingdom aa exoeas of expea
dltures over revenues amounting to
' $160.000,000

"Boses.have thorns" and "WaUs ha;ve

phrase is "If lu a hurry go rounf"
in this country we very often remark
that "accidents will happen in the best

sayings to' "Those who play with edged
tools must expect to cut their fingers.'
In expressing a-similar thought the
Jap gogs us one better so far as plc
turesqueness is concerned. He says,
"If you keep tigers you" are likely to

maxims is to the effect that "oil and

Improved on this. "You can't rivet a"
nail in a custard" is their way of put

the common thought that "out of evil
good may come."
What could be more suggestive anil
at the same time so poetic as their
'Scattering a fog with a fan?" When

neighbors do not scoff at blm or mock

MASTER E.
Nobody, not even the most learned
Scientist living, can tell all of the rea
sons why the children do not thrive
In growth. We often notice children
who have formerly been robust and
strong suddenly and without any ap
parent cause begin to show signs of
failing health. Appetite Is not as keen
as it was, the cheeks begin to lose
their color, and there is a falling oft
In weight. Food does not nourish aa
it should, there is a susceptibllty to
taking cold, and the evidence is as plain
as daylight that the vitality is lowered.
Let us Introduce a letter which ought
to be interesting to every mother.
Milton Junction, Wis.. Nov. 27. 190.";.
Dear Sirs: I want to tell you what
good your Ozomulsion has done to my
little son, now three years old. lie
had been in delicate health and h:id
Buffered a great deal with impaired
digestion. He was very pale, had nj
appetite and had a great deal of sore
throat. He was not strong and wo
were very much worried about him.
A short time ago I commenced giving
him Ozomulsion, and the change in him
has Indeed been remarkable. Whenever
I see a pale, thin child now I think of
It and wish that the child could have
the beneficial properties which 1 know
Ozomulsion contains. Our little son
now weighs 33 pounds, has rosy cheeks,
a good appetite, sleeps well and is grow.
Ing nicely. Ills digestion is all right,
he no longer suffers from constipation
ana, in iact, he is the picture of health
In every way.
le cannot possibly Draise Ozomulsion
too much, as we are so thankful for
what it did to our little boy.
Very truly yours,
(Signed) (Mrs.) LIZZIE SHOLES.
When the mother sees her little child
restored to health hy Ozomulsion
she does not care about the scientific
reasons for this change in health: all
she cares about Is that health has been
restored and the child is now vigorous

and strong and able to grow and de
velop as it ought to do.
The trouble with children aa a rule Is
that for some unknown reason their
systems lack the nourishing properties
of food and the growing body must
languish in consequence. When the
child takes Ozomulsion it not only gets
tlie wonderful properties of cod-liver
oil in the best possible form for palate
and stomach, but It also gets the hy
pophosphltes of lime and soda, which
have a favorable effect upon the diges
tion, feed the nervous system and sus
tain the growing brain. This com
bination of cod-liver oil and hypo
phosphites, as is found in Ozomulsion,
ia the best possible remedy for children
who do not thrive.
Ozomulsion is a splendid remedy for
coughs and colds and all affections of
the throat and lungs. It goes far be
yond this, however. In giving vitality
to the entire system and bringing
back tho physical vigor by which all
children show their prosperity In
growth.
For tlie teething baby that suffers so
much distress in Its little world Ozo
mulsion is a remarkable preparation,
and In all those conditions in which
children do not thrive it Is the best
remedy which could be employed.
Ozomulsion contains no harmful drugs
whatever, and Is perfectly safe to give
to children. Its sweet taste alone com
mends It, because children like It and
do not look upon it as a medicine.
Druggists sell Ozomulsion at 50 cents
and $1.
If your druggist does not keep Ozo
mulsion in stock, he can easily order it
for you, or if you desire a small sam
ple to see what it Is like you can obtain
tho same by mentioning the name of
this paper In which you read this ad
vertisement, and sending
to THE OZO
MULSION CO.. 98 l'lno St.. New York
