Owing to the large number Of inva.

These services will consist not only
of consultation, examination and ad-
vice, but also of all minor surgical op-
erations.
The object in pursuing this course is
to become rapidly and personally ac-
quainted with the sick and afflicted,
and under no consideration whatever
will any charges be made for any SER
vices rendered for three months, medi-
cine excepted, to all who call before
November 18th.
The doctors treat oil forms of disease
and deformities, and guarantee cure
in every case they undertake. At the
first interview thorough examination
is made; and, if incurable you are
frankly and kindly told SO, also advis'
ed against spending your money fol
useless treatment.
Male and female weakness, catarrhal
deafness; also cancer without pain o,
cutting; all skin diseases, rupture ant
all diseases of the rectum are positively
cured by their treatment.
DR.. J. Boyd, the chief consulting sur
geon of the institute, is in persona
charge.

8 The western hemlock is to be the SUBJ
ject OF q special investiga tion this sun-'
mer by the division OF forestry and q
party OF experts will spend several
months in the Puget Sound region max
ing observations and measurements Of
that species Of hemlock.
Attic one OF the largest and most
widely distributed trees in the Pacific
northwest, 1t suffers from the prejudice
against the eastern hemlock, a closely
allied, but much inferior species, and for
this reason has almost no commercial
value. It grows at its best on the cool
damp slopes OF the Washington and Orr
Iegon mountains, where 1t is frequently
200 feet high and 10 feet in diameter. or
even larger in favorable situations. 1t
occasionally forms a dense, pure forest,
but 1t is more often mixed with red fir.
the most important timber tree of the
northwest, and Is usually left standing
by the lumbermen because there Is no
sale for the lumber.
The wood of the western hemlock is
less apt to be shaky is stronger. more
durable. and more easily worked than
that of the eastern species. The bark Is
said to contain much more tannin.
~ the present method oss lam lis,
Immense quantities of hemlock are de-
stroyed annually. for it is left to be
burned by the fires which frequently
follow the removal of the fir. tits be-
Ilieved that II this he MOCK can be given
IitsEtrue value before the public. logging
methods may be modified, and even If
the market develops slowly, there will
be a greater effort to prevent waste.
An important feature of this nyesti-
cation will be to ascertain the rate OF
growth and the time required to produce
a merchantable stand. The western
hemlock possesses remarkable powers
or reproduction and may be counted on
to reforest logged -off areas.

THE PRESIDENTS SIMPORTANCEs
Ex-President Cleveland's address at
Princeton University on 1.-THE indie
pendence OF the Executive is a timely
topic just now in view of Admiral Dew
ey's mistaken effort to minimize the i'm
portance of the presidents office. With
out attempting to criticise such an ut
sterance, 1t is worth while at this time,
and OIL the eve of o presidential election
tonotice come features Of burden placed
upon the chief executive in the proper
administration Of his office 1t ought 10
be understood that the president should
have the wisdom and genius to grasp
opportunity and the independence to
/ properly Interpret his manifold duties.
4 President Cleveland himself was an ex-
ample of Independence In the executive
Office. In the light Of the past, and in
considering the clamorous party sup
& porting him, 1t is to his credit that he
avoided many rocks and shoals by inde-
8 pend ence in action. 1t is, however, in
81 the present era. that striking example
has presented itself calling upon the
q president for action. Not in recent his.
tory have 20 many serious problems

is widely conceded. In reviewing Presi-9
dent McKinley's latitude of action and
the wise administration of his duties
this photographic summary from Cleve-
lands address seems especially perth
inent: In the scheme of our national
government. the president is pre-emi-
snently the peoples Office. The laws
passed by congress are inert and vain
without executive impulse; and the fed
eral courts pass upon the right of the
citizen only when their aid is occa SION
ally invoked; but under the constitu-
tional mandate that the president shall
take care that the laws be faithfully
executed, every citizen is constantly
within the protection and restraint of
the executive power. Furthermore, 1t is
|only in the selection of the president
that the body OF the American people
can by any possibility act together and
directly in the equipment of their ma
|tional government. To the wisdom Of
the men who composed the convention
we are lndebtea Tor the creation or ar
executive department., limited against
possible danger of usurpation or tstran-

s,vindle by fawn Tickets.

The most lucrative game which New
York swindlers work on the credulOus
and eager New Workers themselves
continues to be the bogus or false
pawn ticket swindle. 1t is not I'M,
known in Chicago, and 1t has so many
fine points about it, all of them up.
pealing to the man who loves to make
a few dollars on the side, that the
rogues who work it are neve out Of
customers. The simplest method Is for
the swindler to tell his intended vic
tim he has in pawn a ring or gem worth
500. He claims to have pawned 1t for
only $25, and rather than lose the
difference between the real value and
the amount for which he pawned 1t he
will give the customer a rare bargain.
There is $25 due the pawnbroker, be-
sides S. interest, leaving an equity Of
$50. He will sell that equity for just
half, or $35. After the victim has paid
over the $35 and has redeemed the
pledge he finds that the real value of
the article is $50 to $50 and that he is
,ut S. to SIS. The pawnbroker gets all
he loaned, and the original owner
makes all the victim oyerpaid.-Chica-

A Fine

A young down town drug clerk who
had heard the story of the colored wo-
man who had asked for flesh colored
court plaster and was given black by
the observant dealer stored the Incl
dent away in his mental dust box and
decided to use it ut the first opportu.
nifty. He had not long to wait. for a
few nights ago a comedy colored girl
stepped into the store where he was
employed. "Ah wants some cou't plas.
er,".she said.
"What colorY" inquired the clerk.
with affected n%onchalance.
"Flesh cullah, sah."
Trembling in his shoes and keeping
within easy reach Of a heavy pestle.
the clerk handed the woman a box Of
black court plaster, and he was sur.
prised at the time that the situation at
forded so little humor. The woman
opened the box with a deliberation that
was ominous, but she was unruffied
when she noted the color of the con.
tents.
"Ab guess yo' mus misunderstood
nah ordah. All asked fob flesh cullah.
and yo' done give me skin cullah."
The drug clerk is still a little dazed
from the encounter, and he has firmly
resolved to subject every Joke to rigid
laboratory test hereafter before using.
