The State Election

The election is over; let US have
peace.
By their votes, the people OF
Wisconsin have decided that they
want Robert M. La Toilette to be
their governor for the next two years:
this is republican form of govern
ment, and the majority-or rather, the
plurality-rules.
The fact that his plurality is small
as compared with that given President
Roosevelt, shows that nearly half the
people in the state do not believe in
him.
Now, if Gov. La Toilette will be

Do NOT DOSE THE STOMACH
Hyomei. the Only Guaranteed Cure ioi
Catarrh.

No one should confpund Hyomei
with the patent medicines that are
advertised to cure catarrh. 1t is as
far superior to them all as the diamond
is more valuable than cheap glass.
Their composition is secret, but Hyo-
mel gives its formula to all reputab Die
physicians and is prescribed by them
generally.
Its base is the valuable eucalyptus
oil, famous for it's antiseptic qualities.
This is combined with aromatic and
healing gums and balsams, making a
pure liquid which. when used in the
Hyomei pocket inhaler, fills the air
you breathe with germ-killing, dis
ease destroying and healing powers
that restore health to every part of
the nose, throat and lungs.
The only way TO cure catarrh and
all other diseases of the respiratory
organs is to breathe Hyomei.
This treatment has been SO success
full in curing 80 per cent. OF all who
have used it, that Hyomei is now
sold by John E. DAILY under an abso-
lutte guarantee to refund the money
in case it does not benefit. You run
no risk whatever in buying Hy0mei.
1t it did not possess unusual powers to
cure, it could not be sold upon this
plan.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs
S1.OO and comprises an inhaler, a
bottle of Hyomei and drOpper. The
inhaler will last a lifetime: and
additional bottles of Hyomei can be
obtained for so cents.

 The worlds output of gold for the calendar year 1909, which has recently been compiled by the di- rector of the mint at Washington from the final returns, makes very interesting reading. Australasia heads all the other countries in the list, with an output of $S1 100000, the United States being second, with $50, ,000,000; Africa third, with S22, ,000,000. Canada figures with $20,000,000 and Mexico with $10,- 000,o90. The rest of the localities, all of which are below Mexico's n,arlS, make up the rest of the ,$296,000,000 which is put down as the worlds output for that year. The silver output for 1902 is placed at $215,000,000.

 A dispatch from Seattle, Wash, gives the particulars of the sinking of the steamer Clallam during a gale in the straits of Juan de Fuca. Fifty-two persons were drowned. The vessel was a regular passenger packet, and was not yet year old. When she was launched at Tacoma last April the bottle of champagne was not broken, but fell and slid down along the side of the vessel. Old seamcn predicted that disaster would overtallc the vessel within d year, and 1t was said at the time it would be difficult matter to secure a crew to man the vessel.

when fully ripe, and remains so even if kept for many months. They are of good size, excellent flavor and keep we'll. The bright est colored berries bring the best prices, though not always of the best flavor. Some berries turn red after picking. The best favored varieties are of medium size. many of the large varieties being hollow. Small berries are the best keepers and also the most solid. The work of planting the vines often falls to the women. Two work together, the one dropping the vines into the drills from l bundle which she carries under her arm, the other following with a hoe. The picking season is eagerly looked forward to by the owner and his help. In the marshes of New Jersey they be gin picking certain variety about the middle of September. The other picking usually begins about the first of October, as all berries must be off the vines be fore frost comes. In the fine Oc- tober weather almost a picnic is made of the work, and women and children turn out to the fields with bright faces and well-filled lunch baskets. Care must be talk en to prevent bruising, but if picked in small baskets and imme- diately poured into the shipping basket there is little loss from bruised fruit. A portable fan is attached to the basket or barrel into which they are poured, and by this means all dead vines, sticks, leaves and dry berries are blown away.

Rio Janeiro, Nov. 13.-The OPPOSE
ton to the compulsory vaccination
law led to fierce rioting today. The
troops repeatedly charged the Mole,
barricades were erected and lines were
cut. putting the city in darkness and

of the rioting yesterday as Il result of
the opposition to compulsory Vaccina-
ton law. Military and naval detach-
mtnts have been called upon to re-
