Secretary of War Taft has sue
ceeded in making treaty with
Panama that is entirely satisfactory
to the officials of that little republic
and if it is more favorable to Pana-
ma than to the United States we
can stand it. The conditions of the
treaty involve the customs duties, the
postofice and the question of sani-
tation. The United States will i'm
pose and collect no tariff duties in
the canal zone; Panama reduces
her consular fees and port duties 90
per cent of rates now charged and
her tariff from IS per cent ad valorem
to 10 per cent; to reduce postage
rates to cents; to adopt the gold
standard and give the United States
control of sanitation at Colon and
Panama.

Wisconsin Helen X oilers.

The marvellous attainments of the
blind deaf Helen Keller stands as an
evidence Of what can be accom-
phished under seemingly insur-
mountable difficulties. 1t is not
generally known, however, that
there are in different schools of the
United States nearly thirty unfortu-
mates Of this class. Wisconsin has
two of these, Eva Halliday Of Mil
waukee and Annie Johnson Of Col
fax.
Eva Halliday lost her hearing and
sight in infancy. She has now been
in the Wisconsin School for the
Deaf, at Delavan. little more than
two years. She has learned to read
and to operate rapidly the Braille
and Remington typewriters. She
has also been taught speech and
articulates so that those who are
familiar with her have little diff
Guilty in understanding her. She
reads the lips by placing her fingers
upon the lips of the speaker. Dur
ing her two years schooling she has
made more rapid progress than has
any other blind-deaf student even
including Helen Keller, in an equal
time.
Anna Johnson lost her sight and
hearing at the age of twelve. She
was bright and ambitious country
school girl until this affection came
upon her. Last January she enter
ed the Delavan School for the Deaf
She has a vocabulary and a voice
resulting from her twelve years of
existence in full possession of all of
her senses. The problem of teach
ing her is quite different from that
Of teaching Eva. Annie has only
to master the point system used by
the blind and to learn the manipula-
ton Of typewriters. This she has
done even in the short time she has
bren in the state school.
Both Eva and Annie are bright,
happy, light-hearted girls. They
are optimistic in tendencies and
thoroughly appreciative of all that
is being done for them. No depart
ment of the work of the Delavan
school is more fascinating TO visitors
than is the department of the blind.
deaf. This department is under the
direction of Miss Della Rice of
Columbus Ohio. Both Of these
girls, with their teacher, will be
present at the State Teachers AS
ISOLATION which meets at Milwau-
kee, December 27th, 18th and goth.
They will give an exhibition of
their accomplishments and the meth
cd used in teaching blind-deaf stu
dents.

within the past year. Six new bat

Three cruisers are now under con-
struction.

One of the important bills. before
Congress at its present session will
be the admission of Oklahoma and
the Indian Territory as one state.
A difficulty in the situation arises
with reference to the sale Of liquor
to the Indians. The sale of liquor
in the Indian Territory to Indians is
prohibited by federal law. The In
dams seem to have a passion for
liquor and this taken in connection
with their habits of Incidence is fatal
to them if they have free access to
spirits. President Roosevelt sug-
gests that in the admission Of the
territories as a state there shall be a
provision prohibiting the manufac-
ture and sale of liquor within its
limits.

FOR CATARR K

The microscopic study of catarFh shows 1t to be caused by wormlike microbes that make their nests and swarm-centera in the mucous-membrane Things Of the nose, throat, larnyx. pharynx, bronchial tubes, stomach, liver, kidneys, and bow els. Their usual lodgment, however. is In the membranous Things of the nose as the base of poisonous propagation and disease.
 Catarrh, though usually categoried as a noncurable. noneradicable maIady, is cured by Radam's Microbe Killer, for the reason that the infected mucous mem branes, after becoming permeated with It's bacillicide gases, cease to afford food and life to the microbes. The curative process iS only . process of completely eliminating from the system the animal germ poisons to which catarrh is lnvari- ably due.
