You're through
with Catarrh, finally and completely,
or you have $500 in cash.
That's what is promised you, no
matter how bad your case or of how
long standing, by the proprietors of
DIR. Sage's Catarrh Remedy.
Catarrh can be cured. Not with
the poisonous, irritating snuffs and
strong, caustic solutions, that simply
palliate for time, or perhaps, drive
the disease to the lungs-but with
DR.. Sage's Remedy.
The worst cases yield to its mild,
soothing, cleansing and healing prop
critics. "Cold in the Head" needs
but a few applications. Catarrhal
Headache, and all the effects of Ca
tarrh in the Head such as often
sive breath, loss or impairment of
the senses of taste, smell and hear
ing, watering or weak eyes-are at
once relieved and cured.
In thousands of cases, where ev-
erything else has failed, Dr. Sage's
Remedy has produced perfect and
permanent cures. That gives its
proprietors faith to make the offer.
It's $500, or a cure. They mean
to pay you, if they can't cure you.
But they mean to cure you, and
they can.

The Maximum Rate Bill.

Last evening Governor Crounse signed the
maximum rate bill and it becomes a law that
will 60 into effect the coming August. 1t will
be the first direct measure regulating railroad
rates in the state and it will be watched with
close interest. If the railroads do not accept
it without a struggle, which they undoubtedly
will not do, there will be some very important
suits in the courts growing out of the measure.
The Union Pacific will undoubtedly vest
claim for exemption on the ground that it is a
government road and responsible only to the
national government, while other roads will
seek tests on the constitutionality of the law,
which in the opinion of many attorneys can
be easily found. In the meantime the law is
on the statute book and Governor Crounse
put nothing in the way of its becoming law,
but to the contrary approved the measure.
The republican governor of the state has done
what the republican party has in its platforms
expressed itself in favor Of doing, and if the
law proves bad one-one that is unconstitu
tional or that works more hardship than good
upon the people-then the responsibility will
rest upon the dominant party in the legislat-
ure that created and carried the bill through.

MYTHS About the Rather.

John G. Moore, of Otay. Cal, who has
observed the rattlesnake in many re-
eions, destroys a number of traditions
about them. For example, it has al
ways been held that he is magnani-
nous enemy and will give sort of warn
ing by rafting three times before he
strikes. Mr.. Moore says: II have
seen a rattlesnake in July lie in the
shade and rattle steadily for an hour.
He was either amusing himself, or, per-
haps, taking music lesson, as he did
not see me, and l am sure he had no in
tention of biting himself. When l was
in Texas have known a rattlesnake Co
strike horse without the least note OF
warning. Another picturesque error
regarding him." continues Mr.. Moore,
''is the superstition that when spelling
for fight he coils himself up like a
doughnut, or a halyard on board a
man-of-war. The snake simply gath
ers himself in series of irregular folds
like a series of superimposed SIS. He
can at best strike but three-fourtbs OF
his own length. and rarely accomplishes
that in actual warfare IN. Y. Tribune

The Currency Famine.

WASHINGTON. Aug. 5.-Treasury Off
Gals state that the treasury is prepared
to supply all the small currency want
ed, and the lack OF such currency in
certain sections of the country is ac-
counted for on the superstition either
that all money is scarce, or that the
banks have failed to procure of the
treasury the small notes needed for
home consumption. At no time in
years has so much small money been
sent to New York, and the lack of
small notes there cannot be accounted
for here except on the theory that
much of it is being boarded by those
who receive it.
1t is also stated at Ele treasury de-
partment that there is no likelihood of
the resumption of the issue of gold
certificates until the free gold stands
from $1,000. 900 toslO, 900, 900 above the
reserve. This increase can only be au-
thorized by the secretary of the treas
ury, who has not yet given any in
structions in that direction. The free
gold is now nearly 100000.
Since August the comptroller of the
currency has ordered currency printed
for issue, on the security of United
States bonds for national bank circula-
tion, to the amount of $3.50. 600. Of
which 81, 45S, COO was ordered yeste-.
