One of the weightiest problems before the American nation is here

treated in a most impressive manner. Based upon cold facts, the book

shows conclusively that our nation suffers, by sheer carelessness and

wasteful methods, losses amounting to many hundred millions of dollars

annually.

“The book tells a story that is astounding. Some of the descriptions of

the past are told in figures so great as to be beyond our

comprehension.”

—_Word To-Day_, Chicago.

“This volume should be read, pondered and re-read by every individual in

America who has reached the age of reasoning.”

—_Union_, New Haven.

“The book is a practical little sermon, much needed in this period.”

—_San Francisco Chronicle._

“There are but 134 pages in this book, but within the limited compass

there is set forth the most terrific impeachment that was ever laid to

the charge of a nation. This little volume should be scattered over the

country in tens of thousands.”

—_Boston Herald._

“It is a book, that every person should be compelled to learn by heart.”

—_Chicago Daily News._
