Catarrh may attack any organ of the
body. Women are especially liable to
catarrh of the pelvic organs. There
are one hundred cases of catarrh of
the pelvic Organs to one of catarrh
of the head. Most people think, be-
cause they have not catarrh of the
head, they have not catarrh at all.
This is a great mistake, and is the
cause of many cases of sickness and

JUKES AND EDWARDS.
Significant Statistics Relative to Two
American Families.

About the year 1920 one Max Jukes
was born. Very little is known about
him. but his descendants have man
aged to keep themselves constantly in
the eyes of the public. Some expert
student of heredity devoted the better
part of five years to a study of the
family, and located about 1900 of them
every one of whom was either a GRIM
inal. pauper. an embecile, or insane.
Only twenty of the number ever
learned a trade. and ten of the twenty
learned trades in a state prison. Twen-
ty years ago his progeny had cost the
public more than $1.250, 900.
In 1903 Jonathan Edwards was born
and the history of 1900 descendants
was presented to the American in
Stitute of instruction at it's meeting in
Halifax. Nova Scotia last week. There
were only six criminals in the whole
number. and not one pauper or imbe-
cile. In education. literature. states
mining and railroading. law,
medicine and theology the descendants
of Edwards have filled the highest
places. Among their number were 2S3
college graduates and thirteen college
presidents.
1t may or NAV not be true that the
law of heredity is as constant factor
AS the law of gravitation. but the vital
interest of the general public in the re-
of the descendants of Max
and all his kind is shown in these lu-
mfnous fgures.-Zion's Record.

POSTMARKS.
Entire U. S. Supply Made BY One Fam
ily.-They Have Had the Contract
For Over Sixty-Five Years-A Prim-
tive Style of Postage

From Washington Post.
For over sixty-five years the contract
for the manufacture of post-markine
stamps for the postoffice department
of the United States government has
been retained in one family and trans
mitted from father to son.
In 1885 Benjamin Chambers. then a
resident of Washington. began the
manufacture under contract, of these
stamps. And from that period to the
present day his secret process of max
ing raised letters on a soft steel sur
face by hand and machinery has been
religiously guarded. 1t should be stat
ed that the post-marking stamps are
originally manufactured from MALE
able iron and subsequently carbonized
into steel. and they range in price from
$2.7O to so cents each.
Until twenty years ago, Capt. Ben
jamin G. Chambers, son of the original
contractor, manufactured these stamps
in this city. In 1880 he removed his
establishment to Lodge. Northumber-
land county. Va. Mr.. Chambers was
induced to make this change mainly to
preserve the secret referred to. as eff
forts were being continually made to
tamper with his employees by would
be competitors, who sought to GUST him
from the contract. In Lodge. situated
almost at the mouth of the Potomac.
and on neck of land jutting out in
to the river, isolated. and of sufficient
acreage, Mr.. Chambers erected his
shops and residence. Here he is free
from all prying interference. For with
the exception of few stores. the place
and the people are all of his own; the
male inhabitants being employed in his
shops, and equally interested with him
self in the preservation of the secret
and in the continuance of the contract
in the Chambers family
Before the general use of the pres
eDt postage stamps. the steel marking
stamps of the elder Chambers were
IIsed to denote the payment or nom
payment of postage. If the letter on
being mailed. had the postal charges
prepaid at the mailing Office. the envel-
ope was stamped with the word pre-
paid" The older residents of this city

consignee for damages.

EXCAVATING A
BURIED CITY
1t is Four Miles East of
Phoenix. and is one of
the Largest Ruins
in America.

PHOENIX, Ariz., Feb .25.-The Ari-
IONA Antiquarian society, maintained
by this territory. will begin in a few
lays the work of excavating in the
ruins. four miles east of Phoenix, of
what was the largest of any of the pre-
historic cities that were known to ex-

If what appears to have been a city of
magnificent temples and palaces, covers
IN area nearly mile wide and in some
portions it has been undisturbed. Civ
ilization has placed farms and irrigat-
ing bitches through large part of the
ruins and in many places all traces of
the old walls have been removed. Sew
eral of the larger crumbled structures
are still in comparatively godo condi-
ton. although the vandal and the relic
hunter has done great damage. In
some of the lower portions of the land,
part of the ruins have been found some
distance below the surface of the earth,
a fact which leads to the belief that the
city may have extended many miles
farther down the Salt river valley, the
lower paxt being buried b. . great
flood.
The largest of all the ruins above the
ground was apparently a temple or

feet wide by 800 feet in length. and
from ten to twenty feet in height.
This immense structure has scarcely
been disturbed, the antiquarian society
protecting it from relic searchers and
vandals. Only once about six years
ago. has deep eXcavating been made of
it. At that time deep hole was dug
near the center of the great pile by
men who claimed to represent the
institute. 1ney found a
quantity of pottery, engraved tablets
and stone implements, which they sent
to the institute, but which,
later developments showed, never
reached the government collection. 1t
was reported that the same men found
a large quantity of gold, but this can

recall this primitive style of postage,
as well as the fact that the letter
could be redeemed by the receiver when
the sender omitted prepayment of pos
tage charges. The steel prepaid mark
ing stamps of the elder Chambers are
no longer in use. But many and nu-
merous varieties of the modern steel
marking stamps of the son are in daily
and hourly use in every postoffice in
the United States. Cuba, Porto Rico
and the Philippine Islands.

WINTER RESORT FOR 1NvAL1Ds.

WINTER RESORT FOR INVALIDS.
Old Mexico with all it's destinations
and attraction as a winter resort for
invalids has attracted little attention
because of the discomforts encounter
ed in the miserable hotels of the coun-
try. and the lack of proper medical
supervision. The splendid Sanitarium
recently opened at Guadalajara as a
branch of the Battle Creek, Mich, in
stitution removes this obstacle and
many are planning to avail themselves
of the benefits offered by the unrivaled

FREIGT CAR
ROBBERIES.
ARE BECOMING FREQUENT, BUT
THE OFFICERS ARE ON A
LIVELY SCENT NOW.
a Quantity of Stolen Goods Discovered
Ru,ied in a Field Not Far From the
CITY. and two Suspects Arrested

Another bold and mysterious rob-
berry of freight cars in transit has oc-
Cured on the G. H. railway in vicinity
of this city and the officers are more
mystified than ever concerning the
identity of the perpetrators
Early this morning it was reported
to the police that a large quantity OF
Merchandise, consisting OF entire pox-
es of ladies' shirt waists and skirts,
and men. women and children's shoes
had been unearthed near Concord1a
where they had been buried on the pre-
vious day by the thieves.
Detective George Harold of the city
poIice force was Immediately detailed
Nv the chief to work up the case ana
given full instructions. He mounted
his horse and visited the scene OF the
robbery. about one mile east OF TOWN.
Within three hours Harold had re-
covered several crates of the stoieh
goods and conveyed them to the po-
lice station. He had also discovered a
clue that might lead to the identity OF
the guilty parties
Not caring to risk a possible nght
and resultant bloodshed by rounding
I'D the band of thieves single handed,
Harold called on State Ranger Bryant
Ia raouasted his assistance. Mr..
Bryant promptly agreed to do anything
in his power to aid the detective and
IN a short time the two officers nad
landed Solome Herrera and PEDRO Lu-
ian behind the bars of the county jail
These two men were thought TO nave
perpetrated the robbery, but there IS
said to be no absolute proof against
them yet and they are merely being
held to await developments.
>he officers are confident that the
series of freight train robber1es that
have made this section notorious dur
ing the last few months are due to the
work of a well organized gang ana
the best detectives will direct their
efforts toward breaking it up
The methods of the gang are simple
enough when understood. One or Two
men board the moving freight trains
and throw off the goods while others
are at a point already agreed upon and
th.A Immediately dig holes in the sand
and hide the booty.
Thus it is that all trace of the
thieves and of the merchandise vanish
es. and it is utterly impossible for the
officers to tell at what point along the
line the seals have been broken and
the>Aars robbed. Had not George
Harold by the merest chance learned
of the whereabouts of the goods it is |

the statement that the cost of put

He says he has consulted wOrkmen

The school boards estimate was $3.50.
Captain McConaughey considers this
entirely too high and asserts that the
