If the citizen who prefers
life to uncertainties, the in
convenience and bother of
treating Bright's disease or
fever may be easily avoid
ed by an investment in
the proper sort of filter. We
have one made of natural
stone, the water being filter
ed through a cylindrical disc.
This disc is easily removed
for cleansing and may be
made perfectly clean by a
moments brushing.
The filter has not been
named yet, but another,
identical in shape and manu-
facture is called the Success.
Ours is just as good without
a name and costs a dollar
less. You see, the name
amounts to something. We
have. also a stock of the

THAT UBIQUITOUS" FEE BILL
Opposition on Part of Legislators.
Tax May be Enforced.

The adoption of fee bill by
the Medical Association has not
proven fruitful | of good feeling
toward the men who forced its
passage. y number of the LegiS,
latOrs are seriously considering
the passage of the clause in the
License bill favOring Il tax on
physicians, inasmuch as the phys
icians want to place much heav-
Ter tax on their patients.
AS a retaliatory measure one
Senator proposes to amend the
Act so as to increase the license
fee to $3.50 per annum and anOth,
err will introduce an Act entitled,
IAN Act to regulate the fees to
be charged by physicians for the
performance of certain profess
siOnal duties" This it is claimed
is legitimate, on the grounds that
if hackmen may be licensed and a
card of rates fixed, the same law
may be operative with any other
class of public servants.
\ physician who had heard of
the proposed measure said last
night that he had his patients and
his rates, and he proposed to con-
tinue them, irrespective of any ac-
ton of the Medical Association.
He believed some of the others
would do the same 1t is init
mated that an effort will be made,
should the new scale of fees be en-
forced, and in the event that the
Act to have rates fixed by the
Legislature does not pass, to form
hui of one or two hundred fami-
lies, and a physician engaged by
them at a regular monthly salary.
\ hundred families at 81 per
month would give a physician So
600 a year income an he could
have other practice besides.

tempting to arrest an illicit liquor

Asking No Odds

My son, the poor man takes al
the chances without waiting to
have one given him. IL you give
him any more chances than he
takes, he will soon own everything,
and run the Texas man out of the
country. He has crowded the
rich out. But for the poor man
the world would have cast anchor
six thousand years ago, aud be
covered with moss and lichens to-
day, like United States rlan-of-
war.
Edgar Allan Poe was the sen cf
stroliing player; George Peabody
was boy in smai. grocery; Ben
iamin Franklin, the printer, was
the son of tailow chandler; John
Adams was the son Cf a poor
farmer; Clifford, the first editor Of
the Quarterly Review, was a com
mon sailor; Ben Johnson was a
bricklayer; the father or Shakes
pearc couldn't spell and couldn't
write his own name; neither can
you; even his illustrious son
couldn't spell It twice alike; Rob
ert Burns was child Of poverty,
the eldest son CT seven children,
the family Ct poor bankrupt;
John Milton was the son of a
scrivener; Andrew Jackson was
the SON of a poor Irishmap; I'm
drew Johnson WIS tailor; Garfield
was boy of all work, too poor to
even have trade; Grant was a
tanner; Lincoln was a kceiboat-
man aud a common farmhard; and
the Prince cf Wales is the son Ct a
queen. 1t is his misfortune, not
his fault; he couldn't help it, and
he can't help it now. But you see,
my dear boy, that's all there is Of
him; he's just the Prince of Wales,
and he's only that because he can't
help it. Be thankful, my son, that
you weren't born prince; be glad
that you did not strike twelve the
first time. If there's a patch. On
your knee, and your elbows are
glossy, there is some hope for you,
but never again let ne hear you
say that the poor man has no
chance. True, a poor lawyer, a
poor doctor, poor printer, a poor
workiDgman of any kind, has no
chance; he deserves to have none
but the poor man monopolizes ell
chances there are.-Robsrt J. Bur

Mr.. Bryan in his speech on Sat
urday put before the people one Of
the contradictions of the Republi-
can canvass that ali will appreciate
and which will have important
bearing on future political ard f.
nancial discussion. The republi-
cans went before the laborlng
men," he said, "and told them that
low prices were great blessings,
because the wages would go furtk-
er, and they went before the farm
er and told that farmer that agri-
culture was depressed, and that
simply means prices were down,
and that the gold standard and
confdence-sspecially confidence
would restore prosperity and re-
store prices to the farmer. 1t will
be interesting to see the republi-
can party make prices low in order
that the wages may 60 further,
and at the same time make prices
high so that the farmers may get
good prices tor their products. 1"
This is on the same line of reason
ing as that the workingman would
suffer by 53-ccnt dollar which at
the same time would be worth 100
cents to the silver producers.
