Who Has Cdl0pPh?
A COMMON SENSE CURE

TaO those who know what Catarrh
really is, the old-fashioned way
Of treating it, still used by
thousands who cling to old
methods, seems a woeful waste OF
good energy.
Catarrh is inflammation of the
mucous membranes of the nostrils,
throat and air passages.
It needs soothing not irritating.
The constant hawking, the chok-
ing, plugged-up, disagreeable SEN
sation of tightness - troublesome
especially in the early morning,
when the cold air contracts the air
passages and irritates the infamed
membranes-is relieved immediate

Speechless With Rage.

''Strong emotion, says Darwin, elm
;terrupts the steady flow Of nerve force
to the muscles" This prevents the
proper working of those muscles which
are used in speaking; hence the STUN
bling and incoherence Of the speech.
''The voice sticks in the throat" to use
the words Of Virgil. In some cases
speech is for short time impossible, as
is seen where a person is said to be
"speechless with rage. 3" The hoarseness
Of the voice is due partly to the fact
that passion causes an overaction of
all the organs, partly by the fact that
for generations harsh and fierce sounds
have been made use Of to terrify oppo-
nents in quarrels, and SO have come to
be associated instinctively with anger:
Possibly the fact also has it's influence
that the utterance of sounds such as
those referred to is in some way or the
other relief to the feelings.

MONKEY AND BOY,

They We're Equally Concerned In
the Jail Delivery.
In the picturesque little town Of Law
renceburg, Ind, there used to be an old
stone building that was used as Jail.
It could tell many strange story of
the persons it deprived of liberty, but
would, if it were wise, be silent con-
corning one incident that proved to be
joke on itself.
Among the boys Of the town was d
half witted lad who was particularly
incorrigible. and whose constant COM
panion was a little monkey, who at
tended him as faithfully as Mary little
was known to be a confusion Of the
ideas CT mine and thine. and after one
very considerable theft the local Sher-
lock Holmes found footprints Of Jocko.
the monk, in regions from which the
missing articles had disappeared, and SO
the boy was arrested. There was no law
for imprisoning the monkey. so he was
not "pinched. The boy was a model
prisoner for several days. but was sud-
denly seized with desire to have his
monkey with him. So earnestly did he
beg for this that the good natured jailer
had Jocko brought to the cell. That
night the lad, who was supposed to be
without intelligence. began clawing out
the mortar around one of the largest
stones in the outer wall. He could not
do much with his blunt fingers and
weak nails. but the monkey Immediate
~ began initiating him. The long claws
of the animal soon loosened up enough
mortar to enable the boy to pull the
stone out of the wall, and before morn
ing both boy and monkey had disap-
peared. -Cincinnati Enquirer

Protection and the Farmer.

The report of the Agricultural De.
partment showing the increasing ex.
tent to which foreign countries were
in 1898 purchasers OF the agriculture
al products of the United States pre-
sents some interesting facts illustra-
tive OF the wisdom OF an economic
policy which promotes the foreign
trade and domestic trade at one and
the same time. Domestic exports OF
all kinds in 1898 exceeded imports OF
all kinds by the enormous sum OF
1904 ,242, 259, which was more than
double the excess OF the preceding
year, the largest reported up to that
time. Agricultural exports for 1898
amounted to 1908 per cent. Of the
whole, being gain Of nearly IS per
cent. over 1897. There was, on the
other hand, a marked decrease in
1898 OF purchases of foreign agricul-
tural products as contrasted with
the fiscal year 1897, when under the
free wool provisions of the Wilson
law we imported $53,243,191 worth
OF foreign wool, against less than
seventeen millions worth under the
Dingley Tariff in 1898.
The American farmer had much
the best OF the situation in the first
eleven months OF restored Protec-
ton, as his sales to foreign countries
more than doubled the value OF our
imports OF foreign agricultural pro-
ducts, the excess amounting to
$544,216,146. Altogether, the agri-
cultural export and import figures
for 1898 show we'll for Protection

ALEXANDER McKNNoN, the demo-
cratic politician OF Crookston, is said
to be slated for chief grain Inspector
to succeed A.,C. Clausen. We do not
know that he possesses any special
qualifications for the position except
those OF a political nature. By the
way, did not the democrats in the
last campaign loudly denounce the
republicans for appointing politi-
clans to serve in the grain inspection
department.? 1t might be supposed
that the democrats, now that they
have a chance, would shun the prac-
tice, but what do we see? The very
first act is to appoint a man chief
grain inspector as reward for poll
tical services. This appointment
certainly is not taking the grain in
spection department. out OF politics,
but is forcing politics into it more
than ever. We have no objection to
Mr.. McKinnon. Personally, he is a
very pleasant gentleman, and we
rather rejoice at his appointment as
he is from the northern part of the
state. We simply wanted to show
the inconsistency Of democratic pro-
fessions before election and their
deeds afterWard.

The San Francisco Call in a recent
issue gives an interesting account OF
a boy who had lost his reason and
had it restored again after a period
OF eleven years. The boy while en-
gagged in a childish quarrel with a
playmate was struck with a brick.
The moment he was struck he began
to go around in circle. He was
taken to his home and a physician
called, but the boy never recovered
his reason or powers of locomotion.
While able to walk he could not con-
troll his movements, and had a con-
slant tendency to move in a circle.
A short time ago the parents decid-
ed to have their sons skull examined
under the influence Of the X-rays A
skiagraph Of the skull was taken
showing a thickening Of the bone
near .the top OF the skull on the
left side. An operation was per-
formed by which the thickened bone
was removed, relieving the pressure
upon ithis part Of the brain. The
first words uttered by the young
man upon recovering from the un-
consciousness caused by the anes-
thetics used during the operation,
were, "What made you hit me?"
The question had been hidden away
in his memory since the Hateful day
when he received the wound. AS
soon as the effect OF the blow was
removed the mind started off just
where it had ceased to act. eleven
years ago.

THERE has been a good deal Of the
usual maundering rot in the legislar
ture about the poor farmer. The
farmer is not poor. Taken as a
class he is the richest man in the
world. Taking the whole popula-
ton of the cities and not one man
out Of twenty has a clear title to
more than he wears on his back.
Take the average farming communi-
ty, and nine farmers out of ten are
solvent, and have something laid by

PERIL MADE THEM FRIENDS,
The Wild Rsasts Herded Together. TO
Esc0per q FoPeat Fire

The Wild Hsasts Herded Together TO
Escspe Forest Fire.
An incident Of forest fires IN the hills
Of the Descanso neighborhood, in south
ern California, illustrates the comrade-
ship that common peril brings about
among beasts as well as among men.
After the flames had completed their
work Of destruction and spread pail
over the hills a rancher went forth
among the charred stumpe and smoking
brushheaps to look for number Of cat
tie and colts which he feared had been
hemmed in by the fire. He went across
gully and ridge in his search, until at
last he saw his stock some little dis
lance ahead
He was more than astonished upon
coming up to the group to find not only
his cattle and colts, but deer, three
wildcats, q coyote and several rabbits,
all alive and apparently in no fear of
him. They watched his approach with
indifference, the timidity gone from the
big eyed deer, no venom in the wild
cats purr and honesty shining in the
gray coyotes face. The rabbits sat on
their launches as meek as the pets of
children. But the: poor coyote was in
pain. and as the farmer came close the
erstwhile robber of the roost dragged
his helpless hind quarters toward the
man in mute supplication. The legs Of
the animal had been frightfully burned.
The rancher was in no mood to make
friends OF such strange creatures, and
at once drove his stock through the
smoherin& brush, the deer going
along with the cattle. the rabbits hop
ping along at tho rancher's heels the
wildcats slouching along behind. and
the coyote. unable to follow. whining a
pathetic appeal for succor. When the
burning field was passed. the deer broke
into a run tor the distant hills. the rab-
bits were away like fash. and the old
defiance and snarling leer came back
to the wildcats, who scorned to make
show Of haste. They walked slowly out
of sight. Diego Union.
