antiseptic capsule is taken from a closed

leather brush. The razors and burshes
are unique. They come to pieces with
twist of the fingers and every part il

for use in cases Of accident and
and for slight injuries and all
ments. A good liniment and one
that is fast becoming a favorite
if not a household necessity is
Cham berlain S Pain Balm. By
applying it promptly to a cut,
bruise or burn it allays the pain
and causes the injury to heal in
about one third the time usually
required, and as it is an antisep-
tic it prevents any danger of
blood poisoning. When Pain
Balm is kept at hand a sprain
may be treated before the in
famation sets in, which insures
q quick recovery. For sale by

SUBSCRIPTION SIS PER YEAR
This is to Laugh.

terday and certified to by State
Auditor Iverson, Robert G. Dunn
answers the charges made
against him by the state public
examiner. The statement is a
plain, unvarnished presentation
Of the law in regard to timber
trespass and mineral leases and
the method'in which they we're
handled by the state auditors
Office during Dunn's administra-
ton. It reveals to the public the
state examiner as a laundering,
ignorant, malicious ass who has
wasted thousands of dollars Of
the public moneys putting to-
gether a report about things Of
which he is the densest ignor-
ance. The state public examin-
er's position would be laughable
were it not SO pitable.
The long report of State Pub
| lie Examiner Johnson is devoted
almost exclusively to citing in
stances of mineral leases which
Mr.. Johnson suspects" were
sold to clerks in the auditors
Office. Thousands of dollars,
millions of dollars, declares Mr..
Johnson were thus lost to the
state. AS matter of fact, a fact
which Johnson evidently did not
know, but as Mr.. Dunn's state
ment conclusively shows, the
state auditor is compelled by law
to sell these leases at $25 each to
whomsoever shall apply for them.
If more than one person applies
for the lease they may bid
against each other and the lease
goes to the highest bidder, but if
there is but one application, the
lease is sold for $25. Anybody
can buy that has the money, the
auditor, the woman who washed
the windows in his office, or the
governor.
Mr.. Dunn arraigns the public
examiners report as sthe most
reckless and misleading collec-
ton of statements ever issued by
a public official, and cites as
follows an instance which holds
the public examiner up as the
laughing stock Of the state:
His gross misinterpreta-
ton of such terms as new
: cuttings reported by the
cruisers, which he CONSTITUTES
to mean that cutting was
made of state tim Der and fol-
lows with the inquiry why
the cutting reported was not
paid for?' And the similar
construction he places on the
terms cut all around cut
on the south and east side,'
which also leads him to in
quire why this cutting was
rot paid for, indicates his SUI
preme ignorance of the mat
ter upon which he presumes
to sit in judgement. Any
person possessing but a
slight knowledge Of the lum-
Der business could have in.
formed him that the term
new cutting means that the
timber was never cut into,
and that cuttings on east
and south or cuttings all
around means that the tim
Der on lands adjoining the
state lands had been cut and
that in consequence the state
tim Der was in danger of fire
originating in the 'slashings'
on these adjoining lands.
Mr.. Dunn's statement takes
up in detail the leases and cases
of timber trespass cited by Mr..
Johnson and shows that in every
instance the state was fully pro
tected by him. These cases are
certified is as correct BY Mr..
lverson, now state auditor and
formerly deputy state auditor
under Mr.. Dunn, and they prove
that the public examiner simply

SCIENTIFIC NOTES.

Catarrh, bronchitis and various ear
and nervous troubles are already recog-
nized as effects of automobiling.
Formic acid, a secretion of ants, has
been founed by DR.. Clement, OF Lyons,
to have a remarkable stimulating
effect upon the muscles, keeping them
long active without fatigue. Eight on
ten drops are taken three or four
times day.
Over-fatigue is regarded by Dr.
Understanding as the determining
cause of ten per cent. OF his cases OF
ulmonary consumption. Even a single
excess as unusual bicycling, climbing,
hunting, or even dancing, or tennis

that the heater is perfectly safe, and
that the wires cannot be raised above

A rather unexpected advantage of
electric railways has been discovered
by an italian electrician. He believes
that the cars aid the health authori-
ties by serving as antiseptic agents,
for the electric sparks from the over
head trolley, and from the car wheel
when the rail is used for the return
current, transform the oxygen of the
air into ozone. The high discharges
are frequent enough to add a material
supply of this powerful disinfectant to
the air, especially in narrow streets.

work is here, and we need to bestir our
selves and multiply our activities. Let
us work along three lines:
First.-Our prayer life. Let us not
put aside the morning hour or let any
thing interfere with its observance. If
rushed to get at the days business let
us "chop off, half or three-quarters
of an hour from the morning drowsi-
ness and profit by an early rising to
seek the face of God
Second.-Our Bible study life. This
can be combined with the early morn
ing watch and thus make the time
doubly profitable Let us try to digest
what we read. Better get the full
meaning of five verses than skim over
five chapters. Let Gods word get a
hold on our lives and become part of
our daily experience
Third-Our personal work. oh, that
Endeavorers could feel the importance
of this daily seeking to reach soul for
Christ. II you observe the former

one for Christ.

the success of these remarkable at

novel amusement. Each has fulfilled
the public demand for something new,
something entirely different from any
thing seen before.
