course, under the circumstances, and

must have broken down under the strain,
At last, however, Genie was able to
stand upon her feet again, and Carlos
showed symptoms of improvement. and
one night she felt that it was safe to al

sleep, such as she had not had since she
learned that the condemned man was

to lie awake and listen for any move

The original and only genuine Compound
Oxygen Treatment. that of Drs. Starkey & Pa
lens, is a scientific adjustment of the elements
of Oxygen and Nitrogen mGgnetized and the
compound is so condensed and made portable
that il is sent all over the world.
1t has been in use for more than twenty years;
thousands OF patients have been treated. and
over one thousand physicians have used it, and
recommend it-a very significant fact.
The great success of our Treatment has given
rise to a host of initators, unscroupulous per-
sons; some calling their preparations Com
pound oxygen, often appropriatng our testi-
monials and the names of our patients to rec
ommend worthless concoctions. But any sub
stance made elsewhere or by others, and called
Compound Oxygen, is spurious.

A Pathetic Appeal TO a Railroad

When the railroads of this coun-
trv are finally passed over to the
government to be run for the peo-
pie. which is their manifest destiny,
the historian will be called upon to
chronicle many curious and indeed
marvellous circumstances. There is
a case in point in California. The
Southern Pacific railroad owes the
state of California about two and a
half millions of back taxes For
reasons best known to the corpora
ton counsel, every method known
to the law and the lobbyist is en-
ploped to prevent the collection OF
these taxes. A large portion OF
this money belongs to the schools,
and the city of San Francisco alone
has been compelled to raise at least
100000 to meet the deficiency
caused by the refusal of Mr.. Hunt
ington's road to pay its taxes. The
Legislature undertook to pass bill
last winter reassessing the railroads
for these taxes. This led to a lobby
scandal which was disgrace to the
state. Now, the future historian in
describing the low ebb of public
odiuien on the railroad issue and
the fear of railroad men, will make
clear case by quoting from editor
ials like the following from the San
Francisco Bulletin 'Mr. Hunt
ington had not control when the
two and a half million delinquency
was allowed to accrue. III he
should determine to pay 1T, without
further haggling, that act will re-
dound very much to his credit.
Meantime it has to be said that so
long as this bill remains unsettled
the railroads will have to pay as
sessmcnts on it, every time vaga-
bond Legislature assemblies.
It must indeed be humiliating to
set its newspapers at work implor-
ING corporation to pay regularly
and legally assessed taxes. 1t

ty of the state it increases the tax

owners it enables the roads to de-
