Snapshots.
Two more bills giving women munich
pal and state suffrage have been intro
duced IN the senate.
The members are not very freely
discussing the communication OF Mary
Rogers death sentence, in advance of the
vote, any more than they did in the case
of the capital punishment. The vote
itself is what counts.
A bill providing for election of the
railroad commissioners by the general
assembly, instead of appointment by the
governor, was sent to its third reading
by the house on Friday. The bill also
calls for two-years' term instead of six,
and for a four dollars per diem instead OF
six.
The teachers home bill has passed the
house, and will no doubt get through
the senate.
The house has passed the bill granting
additional powers to FIRE district No.
in Danville, as regards supplying water
for domestic purposes.
One of the new bills bears on the taxa
ton of collateral inheritances and the
transfer of stocks and bonds, and is
expected to increase the revenue from
that source nearly fifty per cent.
Mr.. Kicker of st. Johnsbury scored a
point in the house last week by getting a
reconsideration of the bill in the interest
of live stock in transit, after 1.-THE bill
had once been slaughtered. 1t provides
for the erection, at such points along the
railroads as it may be judged necessary,
of covered sheds for the sheltering OF
cattle while awaiting further shipment
Mr.. Ricker's explanation of the situation
as be had found it in his experience as a
cattle buyer and shipper convinced the
house. and the bill went through by a
decisive vote. It was originally intro
duced by Mr.. Moulton of Burke.

Italy and Spain have fewer houses in

other country in the world. The Argen-

Hitherto San Francisco has prohibited
the erection of buildings to a height
greater than 2O1 feet. Now an ordi-

Do not Dose the stomach.

No one should confouud Hyomei with
the patent medicines that are advertised
to cure catarrh. It is as far superior to
them all as the diamond is more valuable
than cheap glass. Their composition is
secret, but Hyomei gives its formula to
all reputable physicians and is prescribed
by them generally.
The only way to cure catarrah and all
other diseases of the respiratory organs
is to breathe Hyomei.
This treatment has been SO successful
in curing 90 per cent of all who have
used it, that Hyomei is now sold by w
B. Eastman under an absolute guarantee
to refund the money in case it does not
benefit. You run no risk whatever IN
buying Hyomei. If it did not possess
unusual powers to cure, it could not bt
sold upon this plan.

SHALL WE EsCHEW MEAT
DR. BENJAMIN LILLARD, EDITOR OF THE PRAC-
TICAL DRUGGIST AND PHARMA EUTICAL RE
VIEW or REVIEWS EXPRESSES HIS VIEWS
ON THE CONSUMPTION or MEAT DURING
THE SUMMER MONTHS

There Is a legend that before the
flood meat as a food was unknown.
Those were the days when. the Scrip
lures tell us. men lived to be zoo and
500 years old. According TO this story,
which has been handed down from the
ages. it was not until the waters re-
ceded and man dwelt upon the earth
again that ne began the consumption Of
meat.
/ do not vouch for these statements.
Neither do l write myself down "a vege-
tartan. II is a fact. nevertheless that
man is practically the only animal that
eats dead food.
When a baby is born, it's first demand
is for live millS-and so / think
the natural tendency is toward the live
foods as distinguished from the flesh
of slaughtered animals.
Nevertheless, the question as to the
comparative value of the meat as
against the vegetable diet is one that
depends largely upon the individual /
don't think there is any doubt that a
man or woman can exist without meat
las well as with Il.
Aside from the broad aspect Of the
case ! think that This is "a good time
Of the year for an Of as to give ur
meat, or at least TO eat as little of Il
as we feel that we can manage on.
Meat is stimulating and stimulation
is just what is not needed, except in
isolated cases. I'm the summer. Take
some meat extracts, and one may ale
most become intoxicated on them. This
Is bad, for it is always a good rule
TO avoid all stimulants during the heat

Missoula. Mont, Aug. s.-Fifty thou
sand dollars worth of securities, cash
and diamonds, which had formed part
of the loot of the Bear Mouth train rob-
berry, has been recovered. John Christie
arrested in Hope. S. d., guided Special
Agent McFettridge TO the place where

the scene of the robbery and on the

filed a -four sack They had been
thrown into the willows twenty feet
from the river bank
Three miles farther up the hill Chris
tie led the officers to where $4,000 in
silver and bills had been hidden under
a stone. One package of money had
been torn in two and thrown away as
worthless. One hundred and five small
diamonds were found where the pack
age containing them had been torn in
two by the robbers and spilled in the

ed term.
AS TO "a substitute Of meat weight
for weight, there are some vegetables
that are even more nutritious and
strengthening than any meat that can
be eaten. Beans. corn and peas. TO
which add oatmeal and wheat, and an
kinds of fruits are splendid substitutes,
and are am ample diet for the normal
man and woman during the summer.
Spinach ! can also add as one Of the
finest tonics for the system that is
known.
The Japanese win always be a Shin
ing example of what strictly vegetar-
ian diet will do. Look at them They
have infinitely more energy, vitality and
endurance than the Russians, who are
a great meat-eaung race and in the
present struggle IN the Far East are
suffering reverse after reverse. one OF
the reasons being that they lack the
stamina and endurance Of their enem-
les. and, Also that they are unable
like the Japanese. TO thrive on a mini
mum of food such as satisfies the lit
tie fellows from the land Of the Mikado.
/ frankly admit that l believe a great
many people eat too much meat; but at
the same time. let me be understood
that it might be as great "a mistake for
them TO eat too little meat as it Is to
eat too much.
The whole problem resolves itself into
the question as to what the individual
system demands. general ruls would
/ probably be that meat and vegetables
eaten in fair proportion would most
effectively promote perfect health.

formed in Delaware several months

In one Of the deeds the grantors are

Of the will of the late Levi y. Letter.
and in the other conveyance the grant

which the estate has in the property.

TO BOOM FOREIGN TRADE.
Important instructions Sent to Diplo-
matte Officers.


matte Officers.
Washington, Aug. s. p The depart
ment of state has initiated measures
whereby it is hoped further to i'm
prove our foreign trade by means of
cooperating between the diplomatic
and consular services.
For some years our diplomatic Off
GERS have shown increasing interest
and zeal in supplementing the work of
the consular service by reports on com
mercial and industrial subjects, and
the department now hopes to make the
diplomatic corps systematic and eff
cient auxiliary for the promotion Of
our great export trade. The action Of
the department is tentative as yet and
takes the form OF an instruction from
Acting Secretary Loomis to the diplo-
matte officers calling for reports as to
the feasibility of the plan. The in
struction says in part:
II have the honor TO request that
you will cause to be prepared at your
earliest convenience for the informa-
tion of this department a memoran-
dun upon the capabilities of the diplo-
matte service for the promotion Of our
trade interests in the country or coun-
tries to which you are accredited.
1T will be apparent to you that II
the United States is to gain and hold
its proper place among the industrially
competing nations in the worlds mar
kets nothing should be left to chance
but that the machinery for collecting
information as to business conditions
I'm other countries should be made as
efficient and as safely automatic as the
means will allow. AS you are aware
the consular service has made a gen
eral and very marked advance in its
utility i'm this direction in recent years
so much so. i'm fact, as to have become
the object of imitation and emulation
on the part of the more prominent in
dustrial nations. and it is believed that
if the diplomatic service could be
brought into closer and more active co
operation with it the United State:
would possess an instrument of trad,
expansion which it would be difficult
to rival.
"In view Of the fact that the exten
sion Of commerce in its many forms
with multitude of subsidiary inter
ests, has admittedly become one Of the
chief aims of the world-diplomacy anC
the further fact that some nations al
ready have diplomatic representatives
known as commercial attaches, charg
ed with the special duty of collecting
industrial and trade information, it 81
assumed that no serious question o
propriety could arise from the assump
ton by an embassy or legation Of the
functions which have been indicated
as a part Of its regular duties"
