WHAT DOES IT MEAN2

Is there to be another sugar scandal ?
That is the question that is being asked
oftener and oftener as the sugar
schedule in the amended tariff bill is
becoming better understood Wash
ington is full of ugly rumors concern
ing that sugar schedule and the manner
in which it was adopted, one being that
a copy Of the schedule was in the hands
of broker several days before the bill
was reported to the senate, and was
used for speculative purposes. Sena-
tor Jones, of Nevada, is reported to
have stated that at the last meeting OF
the republican members Of the senate f.
nance committee, which he was invited
to attend it was definitely understood
that the provision expressly continuing
the Hawaiian reciprocity retreaty
should remain in the bill, yet when tn :
bill was reported to the senate the next
day that clause was left out. 1t is
notorious that the sugar trust has been
working to get treaty with Hawaii
abrogated. 1t is also known that the
majority of congress is opposed to the
abrogation Of this treaty. Can it be

If indications are not very deceptive
the influence of the sugar trust is quite
as potent in the white house as in the
senate. Mr.. Mckinley has been unable
to stand the pressure, and will, there
are reasons to believe, save the New
York broker Chapman who refused
to divulge the names of senators who
speculated in sugar through his firm,
from the ignominy of serving the term
in Jail to which he was sentenced by
pardoning him. If he does, the pardon
will indirectly result in saving the two
members of the sugar trust who are
under indictment for contempt in the
same case, as acknowledgements will prob
ably be mol pressed if Chapman is par
doned.

THE SECRET.
How Doctors Protect Themselves From Con-
tagiOus Diseases.

How Doctors Protect Themselves From Con-
tagiOus Diseases.
Doctors rarely catch contagious dis
eases. Almost everybody knows this
but few know how they escape Many
believe that the doctor has some charm
or antseptic which protects him. DR..
Hartman lately made the truth of this
matter public, that all might realize its
benefit.
Contagious diseases are conveyed by
minute organisms known as disease
germs. These germs find their entrance
into the system through the mucous
membrane. If the mucous membrane.
is healthy, they can not get into the
system. If the mucous membrane is
affected by catarrh the germs find easy
access. Catarrhal secretions furnish
axactly the material upon which they
thrive and multiply. To get rid of the
catarrh, and thus preserve the mucous
membrane healthy, is the only way tC
be safe from contagious diseases. This
explains why it is that some peopl,
catch diseases easier than others
Every one is exposed just the same
Not every one, however, falls victim
to contagious diseases. A disease germ
can not enter the system through
perfectly healthy mucous membrane
Doctors know this, and therefore guarC
against it. This is all the secret Their
| is about it.
The best cure or preventive know
to the medical profession up to dat
for catarrh in all its conditions is Pc
ru-na. During the uncertain weathe
1 of spring time it is an unnecessar,
hazard for any one to neglect to guar
himself from taking disease, by takini
