A WORTHY SUCCESSOR
Something New Under The Sun. :

All Doctors have tried to cure CATARRH by
the use of powders. acid gases. inhalers aud
drugs in paste form. Their powders dry up
the mucuOus membranes causing them to crack
open and bleed. The powerful acids used in
the inhalers have entirely eaten away the same
mem branes that their makers have aimed to
cure while pastes and ointments cannot reach
the disease. Ar old and experienced practi-
cioner who has for many years made close
study and speciality of the treatment of
CATARRH, has at last perfected Treatment
which when faithfully used, not only relieves
at once, but permanently cures catamh, by re-
moving the cause. stopping the discharges,
and curing all inflammation. 1t is the only re-
medy known to science that actually reaches
the afflicted parts. This wonderful remedy is
known as .'Snuffies the Guaranteed Catarrh
Cure and Is sold at the extremely low price
of one dollar. each package containing inter
months treatment and everything necessary
to its perfect use.

cure ever made and is now recognized as the
only safe and positive cure for that annoying
and disgusting disease. 1t cures all inf1am-
alton quickly and permanently and is also
wonderfully quick to relieve Hay Fever or
cold in the head
Catarrh when neglected often leads to con-
cumption--"S nuffies'' will save you if you use
it at once. 1t is no ordinary remedy, but a
complete treatment which is positively guarn-
teed to cure catarrh in any form or stage if
used according to the directions. Don't delay

Sending pictures by telegraph is an
been monopolized by a syndicate of
newspapers until the present time
By means of contrivance similar to a
! phonograph photographs, drawings or
any picture desired may be transmitted
by wire to any distance where there is
a receiving machine to take it. A let
ter can be sent in the same way and
| it will be in the hand writing of the
author. The picture or letter is first
transferred to a sheet of metal foil and
wrapped around the cylinder of the
sending instrument and it does the
rest. The receiving machine makes as
many copies as is desired on drawing
paper, by means of carbon sheets.
The advantages of this invention are
many and obvious. By means of it
the picture of a man wanted by the
police can be sent over the world in
flash. In newspaper work the picture
of wreck or the portrait of any per-
sonage desired can be secured without
waiting for the mails. Also there
would be no chance of kilograms ever
being forged if this machine comes into
general use, as the message will be in
the hand writing of the sender.
Strange as it may seem the inventor
of this wonderful contrivance is not
an electrician, nor even a telegrapher,
but mere clockmaker with no me-
chanical training other than came in
the practice of his handicraft. Reno

There are a good many men who are
lying under the beautiful white snow
to-day because they tried to please
everybody. When they started out in
life they made up their minds that
everybody should be pleased with
them, but they did not succeed in maxi
ing anybody happy but the under
taker. This world is full of fault find
ers and grumblers and man can't
walk in any given direction without
meeting them. Even when a man
turns his face to the wall, kicks the
foot of the bed and expires, there are
people who will find fault with it.
Some will say that he ought to have
done it twenty years ago, while others
will say that he ought to have waited
little longer for the sake of his family.
The man who just dogs along from
day to day and does his bestregarjless

Into a crowded Chicago street car
there entered the other day an ell
derly lady who handed in her fare,
and after the conductor had pocket
ed it demanded her change. The con-
ductor replied that she had given him
but nickel. She insisted, however,
that it was a quarter, and created
such a, disturbance that the flushed
conductor gave her 20 cents, says an
exchange of that city. A little later
the woman, getting a handkerchief
from her bag, discovered something
else. "Conductort" she called. As
the exasperated man approached, she
handed him 20 cents. Il want to tell
you loud enough for everybody to
hear" she said, that / have found
that quarter, and that / am a stub

pers smiled. Some. looking up, saw
that tired women were standing, and
relinquished their seats. A fashion
ably dressed woman slipped bon
bon into the grimy hand of little
boy; and the conductor, going for
ward, said to the motorman: Say,

The Power of Concentrated Wealth

In an address on Economic Condi-
tons in America" delivered at the Ma
sonic Temple in Chicago few days
ago, DR.. Thomas B. Gregory pointed
out the dangers that he believes now
menace the republic, saying:
'sEach new sunrise finds the wealth
of the country more thoroughly con-
centrated in the hands of the few, and
the masses less and less able to protect
themselves against the encroachments
of the organized plunderers. The
average annual income of the Ameri-
can workingman is but $500, while
there are some 5000 Americans whose
individual income ranges all the way
from 800, 900 to 100000. The aver
age savings of the worker is SIS, while
those of the 5000 is from $50, 200 to $9,-
900, 900.
"The American workers are in a
worse plight than were the peasants of
old France. They bear the great bur-
den of taxation; they are killed like
1
sheep in the mines and on the rail
roads; they areimprisoned in factories;
they are martyred in sweat-shops, and
when it comes to voting the issue and
the result are both fixed by the money
power long before the voter sees his
ballot" In conclusion DIR. Gregory
expressed the belief that no revolution
at arms would be required to check
the sweeping progress of wealth that
is driving the great mass of our people
into gulf of poverty and despair
from which the hope of escape is stead
lily fading. He believes the American
people will soon rise and wisely pro-
test against the concentration of power
in the hands of the few so strongly
that the few who have gained such vast
power will see that the protection of
their interests will be best served by
voluntarily removing the disturbing
cause.

looking into the character of a young

meetings, and each young woman who
has swain of whom she IS at all doubt

the time he committee has got through
with its inquiries there is not much
left to find out about the victim. II
the report is unfavorable the young
man soon finds himself ostracised and

Pa, is responsible for queer elec.
tion muddle. The day before the
election it was found that Thomas ]
Bryan, in whose store the poll was
located, was i'll of smallpox. His
house and store were quarantined,
and the election board hired hall
for polling place. The smallpox
scare kept the country voters at
home, only 40 out of $50 coming to
the polls. All the candidates chosen
were residents of the village, and now
the country voters have begun TO
contest the election. holding that the
board had no right to change the
polling place without an order from
