Recommends Old System.
LETTER RATES TO EUROPE.
Postmaster General Payne. Will Rec
ommend q Reduction.

A radical reduction of the postage rates
on mails to the leading commercial nations
of Europe will be urged on Congress at this
confidently expected that in case the project
is carried through to successful execution
our foreign trade will be greatly stimulated.
1t Is believed that the nations who are to
be approached with view to being parties
to the arrangement will readily give their
acquiescence.
The present rate is 5 cents per half ounce
on letters sent to foreign countries, save
Canada and Mexico, between which and this
country the same postage rates are applied
as are imposed on mail within this country.
1t is purposed to put the governments CT
England Germany and France on the same
footing. In view of the greatly increased
volume Of postal business and the number
of commercial transactions between this
country and Europe the foreign rate is held
to be entirely disproportionate to the do
nestle rate and serves as detrinIent to the
business interests of the country.
Mr.. Payne believes a reduction in postal
rates not only would prove a great benefit
to the business interests of the country, but
result in sufficiently larger business to make
up in the end for the immediate loss of
revenue This has been the experience of
the United States In the reciprocal arrange
ments made with the two countries on our
northern and southern borders. The project
will have to be carried through by conven-
lions with the other countries mentioned.
So soon as the assent of Congress is Sc
cured Germany, England and France will
be approached and conventions with other
countries along the same lines will be left
for future consideration.

PIANO BARGAINS
Wise Purchasers Are Selecting Pianos Now for
Christmas Delivery.
Great Opportunities for Saving Money on High
grade Pianos for Early Buyers.

II Is hard to realize with the mild weather we
are having that Christmas is less than six
weeks OF, said AIR. W. T. Van Wfckle. manager
Of the Bradbury Piano Ware Rooms, 1925 Pa. ave.
We are. however, reminded OF the fact by the
number Of persons who visiting us every day
and selecting Pianos. with orders to lay them
aside until Christmas eve that they will come
TO the home for which they intended as a
pleasant surprise. 1t Is high time to give the
Piano question a little thought It is not the sort
Of thing a person rush of at the last minute
and pick up anywhere. 1t Is necessary to be care
full in the selection of an instrument which repre-
sents much value md which n person should
buy with view OF getting something that Will be
satisfactory for lifetime. In this connection 1t
is well to remember that the fashy, new upright
pianos Of unknown makes are the worst sort of In
vestments and you will find out that they have no
value the market If you should care to
dispose of them.
1t is far better to choose one of these second
hand Bradbury Pianos which we are offering so
cheap.
Very few secondhand Bradbury Pianos on
the market; the few have here probably repre-
sent all there in Washington. Here's an ele-
CANT $500 Bradbury Upright Piano, in good condi-
ton, which sell at 1925. That handsome
dark Mahogany Bradbury Upright Grand, which
would cost when S425, is marked $3.50. An
other $500 Bradbury Upright for $780, and still an
other $3.50 Bradbury Upright for $685.. There are
low prices for high-grade Pianos-guaranteed to
give satisfaction in every respect-on terms $40
monthly payments. Any OF these instruments
will be set aside for Christmas delivery II de-
sired on payment of small deposit.
In addition to the above bargains in Bradbury
Pianos offering some secondhand Chickerfng
Pianos They priced at $50 $50. SOS, $40. $50
$125, etc. and terms be arranged to suit the
purchaser.
We also have few Steinway Sons Pianos
taken in exchange for Bradbury Uprights
Here is one at 800, another at $3.50 and another
at SITS; easy terms, too, IL desired.
On one Of the upper floors two Knabe Pianos,
taken In exchange for Bradburys. They may be
had for s75 and $780, respectively.
All Of these instruments will probably be gone
long before Christmas at the rate selling
them now. Such bargains snatched up early
I'm the season, and those who put of buying a
Piano until the last few days before Christmas
will not have the same opportunity for saving
money as If they purchased now and had the Piano
set aside for them. 1t

THE HAWAIIAN DEFAuLTERs.
One Has Been Arrested, but the Other
has Escaped

Official reports on defalcations by two
prominent officials of the Hawaiian govern
ment have been received by the Secretary
Of the Interior from Gov. Dole William
H. Wright, the treasurer of the territory,
admitted he was $17,95O short, and B. H.
Wright, chief clerk Of the department Of
public works of Hawaii, Is charged with the
embezzlement of sS,272. The former escaped
on the steamer Alameda, which sailed from
Honolulu September "a for San Francisco,
and has not been found, but the latter was
arrested and held for trial this month.
Gov. Dole says that Secretary Cooper
who is now acting treasurer, heard through
confidential sources that the treasurer was
short in his accounts. and when the latter
was confronted with the statement he de-
MED 1t, but subsequently admitted a short
age OF about $4,000, giving assurances at
the same time that he would make 1t good
Mr.. Cooper, on taking charge of the treas
ury. made an investigation, at which the
treasurer failed to make good promise to
appear. The Alameda was searched, but
Wright had slowed himself away success
fully.
The cash in the general treasury was
found to be correct, but the governor re-
ports that the Chinese fund under special
deposit in the vaults was SIT $50 short. This
fund originated in deposits made by Chi
nese entering Hawaii to secure their pas
sage money on leaving the country, the de-
post being first made in the postal savings
banks. When the federal treasury paid the
81, 100000 on account of the Indebtedness of
the territory the accounts were paid and
the money placed in the First National
Bank of Honolulu as a government deposit
tory, and part was placed in the treasury
as a special deposit.
On September last according to Gov.
Dole, Treausrer Wright, who was then also
acting superintendent of public works, re-
ported to Deputy Auditor Meyers that B.
H. Wright had been suspended for mscon-
duct, and on September the treasurer had
the safe opened in the presence of the at
torney general, the deputy auditor and B.
H. Wright and his counsel Wright was
permitted to take out an envelope he
claimed to be private property. His ac-
counts were found S. 252 short, and there
was no entry on the books of check
cashed a short time before and Endorsed by
B. H. Wright for s., go. and he was charged
with this amount of embezzlement. Later
another charge was made of the embezzle-
ment of S49S2.

Thank God the inquisition is thing of the

There is the whole thing in nutshell
The medical fraternity could not cure the
cause Blood Poison) with mercury and potash
So it is wonder that they could not cure the re-
suits, whether they showed in the form of Loco
motor Ataxia, Paralysis, Atrophy of the Optic
Nerve or Paresis.
They were helpless.
We have cured so many patients who had
rubbed mercury at Hot Springs or taken mercury
and potash in some form or another that we are
convinced that mercury never effects permanent

Mercury and potash may retard the disease
somewhat, but nothing but the DR.. Sieber Serum
Toxin treatment eradicates the disease
To be cured by us means to be cured forever
We publish herewith few of the testimonials
sent us from time to time by grateful patients.
In addition to these testimonials we desire to
mention the case of woman in Chicago:
This woman was sent to this company by
high functionary of the Catholic Church, who
sympathized with her in her terrible affection We
are told that some years ago this woman's entire
body turned black and was covered with ulcers.
One of her limbs so bad that, she expressed
it herself, she feared it would rot off. Her face
was a sight that no one wanted to look at sec
ond time. After a few treatments all sores have
disappeared - limbs, face and body show only
red spots here and there and scars but in another
month we know this woman will be entirely well.
She had treated for years with various DOCTORS but
received no benefit.
Isn't treatment that restores such terribly
afflicted being to health and happiness blessing
and benediction? {
WE SAY, YES.
In conclusion and in justice to all, we are :
pleased to acknowledge that not ALL physicians
call us "quacks and charlatans." No. we can name
a number of reputable physicians who knowing 5
