The agitation of the Washington Post for
the repeal of the civil service law may have
the effect to screw up some Congressman,s
courage to the point of offering a bill to
starve it to death by Withholding an appro.
priation. That 1t will have any other is not
at all likely. The Posts charge of fayorit-
Ism in the administration of the law, or
something even worse. though proved true
would not discredit the law in the least. All
laws are subject to Observation-Disclosures, but
the ordinary and logical proceeding when
such mal-administration is discovered is to
punish the administrators. not to repeal the
law. And this will be the proceeding In case
OF the civil service law If the charges of the
Post are sustained. There is as much chance
that Congress will repeal or cripple the civil
service law as that it will do the same thing
to the law against smuggling or Illicit aistii-
ling, and no more. The laws against both Of
these misdemeanors have opponents who
would like to see them repealed, but they
constitute very small proportion of the
American people. So with the opponents Of
the civil service law. They are few. though
some of them are quite noisy.

A Warming.

The modes of death s approach are various
and statistics show conclusiyely that more
persons die from diseases of the Throat and
Lungs than any other. 1t is probable that
everyone, without exception, receives vast
numbers of Tubercle Germs into the system
and where these germs fall upon suitable soil
they start into life and develop, at first slowly
and are shown by slight tickling sensation in
the throat and if allowed to continue their
ravages they extend to the lungs producing
Consumption and to the head, causing Ca
tarrh. Now all this is dangerous and if al
lowed to proceed will in time cause death.
At the onset you must act with promptness !;
allowing cold to 90 without attention is
dangerous and may lose you your life. As
soon as YOU feel that something is wrong with
your Throat, Lungs or Nostrils, obtain a
bottle of Boschees German Syrnp. Il will

Economical Baking Powder.

A curious housekeeper of experience re-
Gently made a careful practical test of the
comparative baking value of large number
of the baking powders in the market, clud-
ing those of low and high cost. She found
that twenty-five cents worth of Horsford :
Bread Preparation raised more -four and
produced much better results than the same
moneys worth of the cheap adulterated
powders and also that it took fifty cents
worth of the ordinary high-cost baking pow
ders to raise the same quantity of flour. From
this ,he concluded that it was more economi-
cal to use the Horsford's than the low priced
adulterated powders, and the product was
much better We recommend a trial of this
experiment by our lady friends.
