A Cure For Smallpox.

oThe following cure for smallpox and
scarlet fever is published at the request
of a subscriber:
In Georges Weekly of Denver, COL,
we find the following cure for small
pox and scarlet fever recommended by
a physician who says:
II herewith append recipe which
has been used to my knowledge in hun
dred of cases. It will prevent or cure
smallpox, though the pittings are fill
ing. 1t as unfailing as fate and con-
quers in every instance. 1t is harm1ss
when taken by well person. 1t will
also cure scarlet fever. Here it is as
have used 1t to scarlet fever; here IT is
as have used it to cure smallpox.
When learned physicians said the pat
lent must die it cured.
"Sulphate of zinc, one grain; foxg1ove
(digital1s), one grain; half teaspoonful
of sugar; mix with two tablespoonful
of water. When thoroughly mixed
add tour ounces of water. Take a
spoonful every hour.
Either disease will disappear in
twelve hours. For child smaller
doses, according to its age; # coun-
ties would compel their physicians to
use this there would be no need for
pesthouses. If you value advice and
experience, use this for that terrible
disease. The present is a good time to
ascertain the value of the above
remedy.

favored with visits from two of the
National officers of the w. C.. T. U,
Mrs. Lillian M. N. Stevens the presi-
dent, and Miss Anna A. Gordon the
vice president-at-1arge, are making an
extended trip through the West, but
spent very short time in West Wash
ington, as they expect to be here at
least two weeks in October, at the
time of the National Convention in
Seattle.
They were met in Tacoma by Miss
Page, state president of the organiza-
ton, and Miss Ansorge, state treasur-
er, who accompanied them 10 Seattle.
The Puyallup Union, of our which
old friend Mrs. F. A. Gregory is now
president, with the Sumner Union,
were at the station with quantities of
beautiful flowers in boquets, wreaths
and baskets.
Mrs. Stevens has been for twenty
one years the president OF Maine w.
c. T. U. and for many years she has
been vice-president-at-1arge, SO that
she thoroughly understands the work.
A woman of sound Judgment, patient,
wise and tactfu1 under all circumstan-
ces she is eminently well fitted for the
position in whi CHI she has been placed.
Miss Gordon is well known as Miss
Wizards private secretary, and is
greatly beloved by all white-fibboners.
Those who know her best say she
thinks of everything" Now people
are learning that she is not only
charming woman but born leader of
young people, aud a delightful public
speaker.
The people of the Northwest will
have great privilege in meeting
these women and several hundred of
their co-workers IN Seattle, next Oc-

The Industrial School.

A meeting will be held in Bresux
Bridge tomorrow to discuss the
Industrial school matter, in order
to arrive at some conclusion a. to
the best way of raising the money
necessary.
The first thing to do, is for our
people to say the industrial school
will be established in st. Martin
parish, and when they decide upon
this important point, they will un-
derstsnd that the only way to get
the money. is to either vote q spe-
-cisl tax or to issue bonds. When
this is done the question of locs-
ton will be discussed, and St.
Msrtinville and Bresux Bridge
will have to do the balance to get
the school. We would certainly
like to get the school for st. Mar
tinville, but if We can't get it, we
will cheerfully throw all our inAu-
enoe in favor of Bresux Bridge,
because our main idea is to locate
the school in St Martin, regard
less of any particular location.
We trust that the people of the
entire parish will look upon it in
that light and that they will give
this subject all their support, and
favor any plan that will get it, re-

all marched in procession from

War Against The Trusts.
Timos.D ouoofat.

Timeo-Domocfat.
We expressed the opinion the
other day that the antitrust move
ment inaugurated in the South
west-in the Kansas, Texas, Ar
kansas and Missouri districts
was not likely to be confined there
long, but would spread thence at
least over the South and West, If
it did not make itself felt in the
far East As We expected. the
movement is spreading very rapid
ly, and the legislation against tho
trusts is of the most extreme and
radical type.
On Wednesday, for instance, in
Michigan, where the Pingree in
fluence has given great strength to
the movement against the trusts,
the Senate passed-snd the House
will agree to it--a bill shutting
trusts out of Michigan, prohibi.
ting all trusts and monorolies of
capital. skill or arts from creating
or carrying out restriction in trade
or commerce, from limiting or re-
ducing production or increase,
from reducing the price of mer.
chandise of any commodity, or
fixing any standing figure where
by the price to the public consul
mer of any article or commodity
of merchandise shall be in any
manner controlled or established.
In addition to criminal and civil
penalties provided any person in
jured in his business by q trust
may sue and recover twofold the
damage sustained. This is ex-
tremely radical Legislation, and is
likely to reach the trusts. They
show it, for they are threatening.
as usual. to pull up stakes and
leaves the State.
But We do not have to look az
far away as Michigan to see the
Inauguration of an antitrust move
ment The resolutions adopted
by the Wholesale Grocers' Asso-
citation of New Orleans, and which
We published recently, were rsdi-
cal in their tendency and called
for q conference of the merchants
of Louisiana 10 cooperate against
their common enemy" the trusts.
They called for "the most extreme
Liquidation against the operation
of trusts that can be had, consis-
tent with our State and national
Constitutions" in order to drive
them from the State.
1t is quite evident from these
mutterings and the many bills now
being fred at the trusts from diff.
ferent parts of the country that
the war 10 on, and they are likely
to have some big fighting to do.
