THE ELEPHANT AND THE OCTOPUS.

The z o. p. and the trusts went to sea
In a beautiful pea-green boat,
They took some money and plenty of
Wrapped up in treasury note.
The g. o. p. gazed on the stars above
And sang to small guitar,
90 lovely Octopus, my love, my love,
What beautiful creature you are,
You are,
You are,
What a beautiful creature YOU are"
The Octopus sighed to the Z. o.. p.,
How charmingly sweet you sing,
Come let us be married; too long We
have tarried,
The campaign is in full swing"
So they sailed away TO Oyster Bay
To the land where the sycamore grows
And there in wood candidate stood
With Ring in the end OF his nose,
His nose,
With federal ring through his nose.
Make ready, dear Ted. for we've come
to wed
With your beautiful Federal Ring.
1t will bind us together in all kinds Of
weather,
While you as bangle may swing.
So they married and dined on Doodle
and Pie,
Which they ate with a Dingley spoon.
With the bangle dangling from the Ring,
They danced by the light of the moon.
The moon,
The moon,
The beautiful campaign moon.

FOreshadowins q Career.

~ haven't any great faith in your
power to tell fortunes" said the man
who was leading a small boy by the
hand, as he stepped inside the tent
"but I've some curiosity to know
what sort of future you foresee for this
little chap OF mine."
Sig. Fay-Kerr, the illustrious wizard,
magician and fortune teller looked al
the boys palm.
"The lines," he said, "indicate that
your son has not yet developed a ma.
tural bent for any particular kind OF
occupation or industry"
Industry! I should say not. He's
the LATEST youngster that ever
breathed. All he likes to do is to col.
lect a crowd of other boys, get them to
divide their apples with him, and
make them haul him around in his
cart"
"Your son." said the fortune teller,
consulting the boys palm again
" when be becomes a man, will be a
great socialist leader"

If the teeth are to get but one
thorough cleaning during the day, just
before retiring is the best time to give
it to them, as there are six or eight
hours during sleep that the salivary
glands are inactive, and fatty and
starchy foods may be lodged between
and around the teeth and bathed in
saliva, q partial digestive fluid, under.
60 decomposition, forming acids which
act more or less readily on the tooth
structure at the time of it's formation.
The salivary glands not being active
during sleep, acids are not diluted. as
during the day. A free flow of salivs
prevents the bad effects OF acids thus
formed,

One of Walla Walla's most beautiful
residence sections is known as Walnut
Grove addition. This tract of land
consists OF several acres, covered with
large walnut trees. How this grove
came to be planted recalls a peculiar
story. Nearly forty years ago there
arrived at the local express Office a
small box, the contents of which were
unknown. The box remained in the
Office for several weeks uncalled for.
When unclaimed goods in the express
Office were sold to pay charges, the
box was secured by DR.. Henry Baker.
Upon opening it he discovered that it
contained walnuts, and that they had
been shipped around Cape Horn from
New York City. DR.. Baker planted
the walnuts and the pretty grove to-
day is the result.

E1llEEl KllElZlI
TIAr

One of the greatest American nlllilonaires
once said to his physician, "a million dol
lars, Doctor, for a new stomach" and then
the sick man groaned and turned away.
One of a mans greatest pleasures Is that
born of keen appetite, vigorous digestion
and a good dinner, and this belongs to
many a good fellow who is living on small
wages but the rich man without stomach
has to forego the good things of the table
because his stomach rebels. Without a
healthy stomach and good digestion our
blood is thin, watery and poor, our heart
action is weak, our liver does not do its
duty, and man is miserable and unhappy.
In this condition man Is prey to the germs
of influenza, consumption, malaria and all
the ills that he is heir to. Consumption
can be treated by natural methods which
are as close to nature as possible.
DR. r. V. Pierce, chief consulting physi-
clan of the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical
Institute, at Buffalo, N. ", years ago un-
derstood this disease, and after long pc
Rod of experiment discovered certain roots
and herbs which were natures remedies,
and succeeded in putting them up in a
ready to use. This he called DR. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery. 1t gives no
false stimulation because it contains no
alcohol and no narcotic. 1t helps diges-
tion and the assimilation of such elements
in the food as are required for the blood.
instead OF a COO liver OIL, against winch
the already sensitive stomach will declare
open rebellion, this tonic has pacifying
action upon the sensitive stomach and
gives to the blood the food elements the
tissues require. 1t maintains the patients
nutrition by enabling him to eat, retain,
digest and assimilate nutritious food. 1t
overcomes gastric irritability and symp-
toms of indigestion, and in this way fever,
night sweats, headaches. etc, are done
away with. 1t fortihes the body against
the germs of consumption, grip and ma
laria, and it builds up the tissues and puts
on healthy flesh.
When the druggist says he has some
thing that is "just as good" as DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery, he says SO be-
cause he hopes to make a better profit,
bat his own mixtures have not stood the
est of long experience nor had the success
that Dr. Pierce's medicines have had.

THE GUARANTEED CATARRH
CURE.
Leading Wichita Druggists Will Re-
turn Money If Hyomei Fails.
No Stomach Dosing.

Hyomei has made so many cures of the
most chronic and deep seated cases Of
catarrh. that they consider it a specific
in this disease.
They extend an invitation to all ca
tarrh sufferers to call al their store and
purchase a Hyomei outfit with the dis
tinct understanding that it will be abso-
lutely free unless it effects a cure.
The chief reason for the unusual sue
cess of Hyomei in the treatment of ca
tarrhal troubles and other diseases of the
air passa ges, is the fact that it cures by
a new principle, impregnating the air you
breathe with healing and germ-kiling
balsams On this account 1t reaches the
seat of the disease in a way impossible to
pills drugs or other stomach dosing.
Many of the leading Wichita druggists
customers who have suffered with ca
tarrh since childhood have been cured
completely by this scientific remedy.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs 81,
and consists Of an inhaler that can be
carried in the purse or pocket, a medicine
dropper and a bottle of Hyomei. Extra
bottles can be obtained for SOC. making it
a most economical remedy for the cure
of catarrh.
Do not suffer longer with catarrhal dis
orders, but get a Hyomei outfit from
your druggist. under his guarantee to re-
turn the money if it fails You run no
risk whatever If it cures the treat
ment is not expensive. while if it fails,
your druggist will refund your money
and it costs you absolutely nothing.

Santa Fe Announces Change Effec.
tive March /.

The Santa Fe announces new mileage
to go on sale March l, each book to con-
tain 1000 miles of transportation and to
be good on all lines in this territory.
The commercial travellers will be glad
to know that one of their troubles is
settled The new book that is to be in

used within one year from the date of
issue a refund of $3.50 will be made on
the cover. The new form of transpOrta-
ton will be accepted for the short line
mileage. For example, passenger en-
route from Wichita to Hutchinson via

to Hutchinson, the conductor out Of
Wichita will detach the mileage from
Wichita 10 Hutchinson. the shortest
mileage. which is forty-eight miles, and
issue train check, which is good for
passage after changing cars; same way or
a trip from Wichita to Kansas City,
Galveston, Denver. Ell Paso. etc. Baggage
regulations and conditions are the same
as the other forms of mileage. The new
books do not have to be signed or any
description punched. The regular 1oo0-
