From the Youth's Companion.
An American who had lived In Mexi
co for twenty yeais came back to this
countiy a few- months ago and visited
the places and people that weie once
familiar to him. PIls opinion of his
native land, as reported by the Mexican
coiiespondent of the Boston Herald, is
by no means flattering, Theie aie
"nice people" heie jet, but he thinks
that the pi ev ailing tendencies In
Ameilcan life favoi extravagance, pie
tenslon, huny and woity, and along
with the overdtiven man we have the
lazy man also.
"Just to test this labor question," the
visitor told the conespondent, "I went
to plantations in AMiginla and to fauns
in Ohio, diessed in my old duds, and
asked foi woik. Theie was plenty of
It. The planteis and fanners weie all
willing to give me $10 a month and
good boaid and a clean bed all the
year lound. I leckoned it up that I
could save $100 a year at that rate and
get fat, too. I have worked hard In
my time In lough employments, and
have no fear of sweatiiiEr.
"Well, then, I met some young fel
lows in AVashlngton, loafing atound
the bai rooms and In fiont of the ho
tels, talking about hard times.
"Boys," I said, "theie Is no need of
loafing and giumbling I'll tell you
where you can get woik; go over to
Alexandila, and there's Mr. So-and-So

" In September, 1894, 1 made a misstep and
injured my ankle. Very soon afterwards,
re
two inches across formed and in walking
to favor it I sprained my ankle. The sore
became worse; I could not put my boot
on and I thought I should have to give up
at every step. I could not get any relief
and had to stop w ork. I read of a cine of
a similar caso by Hood's Sarsaparilla and
concluded to try it. Ilefore I had taken
all of two bottles the sore had healed and
the swelling had gone down. My
is now wejl and I have been greatly bene
fited otherwise, I have increased in
weight and am in better health. I cannot

Miss Mario Johnson's letter to Mrs. l'iukhum, which follows, should inter
est all mothers and young ladles. She says :
" My health became so poor that I had to leave
school. I was tired all the time, and had dreadful pains
in my side and back. I would liavo the headache
bo baelly that everything would appcur ulack bo
fore my eyes, and I could not go on with my
studies. I was also troubled with Irregularity of
menses. I was very weak, and lost so much flesh
that my friends became alarmed. My mother, who
is a firm believer in your remedies from experi
ence, thought perhaps they might benefit me,
and wiote you for advice. I followed tho advice
vou irave. and used Lvdia E. Pinkhnm's
Compound and Liver Pills as you directed, and am -
now as well as I ever was. I have gained flesh
and liave a good color. I am completely cured of irregularity,

"'You can read Sundays and leain

"My leceptlon by those young men
was not enthusiastic. Some said they
had never worked at haid manual la
bor; others hated fanning, It was so
dull In the country. All soits of ex
cuses weie given, but not one ptompt
ed by good sense and a vvlllngness to
do honest, hard woik.
"Now, that's a fine lot of young men
for you! You call them, I suppose, the
"Hope of America,' and all that'"
The fact Is our cities aie ciowded
with men, so that theie Is a suiplus In
evety depaitment of labor. The coun
tiy has been emptied of the biaw-n and
muscle that should be given to agricul
ture. On a faun a man can at least
raise food enough to avoid starvation,
and if he is not able to pui chase land
and cannot find occupation in our
cities, theie ate faimeis In nearly all
parts of the country who will be glad
to employ him.
