MALARIA.

The people who live in low, swampy countries seem to take 1t for granted that Malaria, Fevers and Ague are nec- essary evils. They apparently do not re- alize that these diseases are slowly but surely sapping their general vitality. These intermittent levers. malaria, fever and ague, swamp fever, jungle fever, etc.. are the most persistent enemies of the human race. If the aggregate of harm they do could be realized, they would be fought as plaques.
 These diseases are the result of weak ness of poisoned, microbial blood, and 1t was long ago demonstrated that Dr. liar ter's Iron Tonic was an absolute specific: a sure cure. It has been conquring and preventing these diseases for nearly half a century. It purifies the blood and drives out the poisons
 It has been thoroughly demonstrated that the insects which infest new coun- tries and low swampy localities are ve- hicles for carrying disease germs. If your blood is pure and healthy you need have little fear of these. But if your blood Is bad it is not in condition to resist the poisonous stings, and as result the germs of disease obtain footing.
 Protect yourself by using Dr. Harter's Iron Tonic It will not only drive out but keep out malaria and other levers of like kind It has done 1t in so many thousands of cases that you cannot doubt.
 Made only by the Dr. Harter Medicine Co.,, Dayton, Ohio. Sold everywhere. !

The management did not fracture the let ter of the Western Jockey Clubs laws, but it was really the same thing as they freely distributed badges around cincin- nati last night and during the morning, and there was no supreme effort needed to pass the "vigilant' gatekeeper.
 The track was fast, weather clear and betting much improved.
 The finishes in four of the six events were exciting enough to create great deal of enthusiasm. Only two favorites won, the other races going to a second choice and three outsiders.

In command over other resources of
civilization the growth of the territory
under consideration has been notable
The capital stock of the banks
amounted last year to $50, 600, 600.
Their circulation, amounting to $50, =
600, 900, considerably more than
doubled in ten years. The total re-
sources of the banks amounted to ST.
O99, III, 600 last year, an increase of
over one third since 1890, while the
individual deposits in national banks
amounted to 1929, 500, 600. an increase
of over $113, 900, OOO or more than 30
per cent, during the decade. The de-
velopment in educational affairs has
been noteworthy, particularly in more
recent years. There were in 1899 in
the fourteen states carved out of the
purchased territory III, $50 teachers
and 3, 33l, 051 pupils in attendance in
the schools, the last mentioned figure
showing a gain of over "a per cent for
the decade. The pupils in the public
schools alone numbered 3, 161. 112 in
1899, and the expenditures for such
schools amounted to $37, 1876, SS1. In
other directions, also, there has been a
notew worthy development. There were
in 1900 8, 61S newspapers published in
the area, the postoffices numbered 16,
22S and the miles of railway in opera
tion numbered SO, 1924, or 81 per cent OF
the total mileage of the country. Fin
ally, as illustrating the power of the
territory to sustain much greater
population than that which it now
supports, comparison of its area with
the area and population of the pros
porous countries of Europe suggested.
1t is not surprising that it is deemed
worth while to hold in 1908 great
national anniversary exposition at st.
Louis in honor of the acquisition Of
such wonderful domain.
