Wounds, Bruises and Burns.

By applying an antiseptic dressing
to wounds, bruises, burns and like in
iuries before inflammation sets in, they
may be healed without maturation and
in about one-third the time required
by the old treatment. This is the
greatest discovery aud triumph of
modern surgery. Chamberlain's Pain
Balm acts on this came principle. 1t
is an antiseptic and when applied to
such injuries, causes them to heal very
quickly. 1t also allays the pain and
soreness and prevents any danger of
blood poisoning. Keep a bottle of
Pain Balm in your home and it will
save you time and money, not to men
ton the inconvenience and suffering
such injuries entail. For sale at Wa

Washington Letter.

(FRoM OUR REG ULAR CORREsPoNDENT)
Saturday, September 80, 1905.
President Roosevelt came to his Of
fetal Home Saturday evening and re-
ceived the welcome that is his due as
the President of tho United States who
has accomplished the greatest feat of
international diplomacy in the, history
of the country. 1t was not till the
United States became a world power
that there was chance for the Presi-
dent to perform such feat as getting
Russia and Japan together at Ports
mouth. The bulk of Washington's
population turned out to welcome him.
There was no formal escort, no military
to turn the affair into procession.
The tribute was of an intimate and per.
sonal character and was such as no
man, least of all the present President,
could object to or ignore. 1t was for
the things he has done that he Is hon
ored and not for the things tina. are
hoped of him in the coming session OF
Congress.
AS was intimated in these letters
some time ago, the State Department is
coming round to the point Of scandal
in it's administration. 1t is hoped that
there will be nothing of an unpleasant
character proven against the chief clerk
Of the Department, Col. Michael, who
has held his present position for eight
years. At the same time there is a
aerious internal disturbance in the big
department. and if the charges which
Assistant Secretary LOOMS has intima.
ted rather than made, should be proved,
there will be decided upheavel and
another housekeeping added to the
long list that the government already
has on hand. 1t seems that there has
been trouble recently over the leakage
of official dispatches, and important
state kilograms have gotten into the
hands Of foreign countries that they
were not intended for sooner almost
than they have reached the foreign Of
fees to which they were addressed.
1t is really an open secret that al
most all of the great powers have cop
les of their rivals code books. Of course
all OF them were stolen and a good
price paid for the stealing. The pres
emit State Department code is old and
it is suspected that it is in the hands of
several foreign powers, but this GOV
eminent has not much that 1t does not
give out to the newspapers soon after 1t
has gone over the wires, so that steal
ing of American dispatches is almost a
useless task. There has been talk for
some time of changing the State De-
partment's code, but it is a work of
some difficulty and expense and it has
not been done in recent years. 1t Is
probable that the Navy Departments
code, is one Of the few of the American
government codes that has not gotten

Paper Read Before the ChI,ttd,Oqud Circle.
"HE manufacturing, export and
general consumption of Ameri-
can goods have increased stead
lily for the last twenty-five
years. What has been the cause of so
rapid an increase? What part has the
different nationalities played in build
ing up our home industries and for
eign trade?
We cannot give all the credit to the
citizep>-A lerge part
Is due to the spirit of enterprise on the
part of our German, Irish and Jewish
immigrants, as we'll as conditions of
our protective tariff, invention of la
bor-saving machinery, cheap machine
labor, national, state and municipal
assistance.
In limited territory of forty-six
square miles, known as Greater New
York, we have a population of six
million people, largely made up of
Germans, Irish and Jews. 1t is an in
teresting study to watch these three
principle foreign elements where they
are so closely allied in common welfare.
The Germans have succeeded in man
ufacturing, merchandise and machin-
cry, as tradesmen and builders. Their
success can be attributed largely to
their early school education, which
was compulsory, the parents being
liable to heavy fines for neglecting to
send their children to school. At an
early age he is brought face to face
with the problem of earning liveli-
hood. He must spend two or three
years in learning his chosen trade. af-
ter which time he must join the army
or emigrate to foreign country.
Once in our country he soon loses
his nationality and readily adapts him
self to our ways, and in the majority
of instances, makes extraordinary
progress. 1t is not an uncommon
sight in Greater New York to witness
a German foreman who can barely
speak English, directing hundreds Of
American-born employees.
To my mind there are three reasons
for the slow advancement of the Amer
ican boy. First, too much unionism
whereby the number of apprentice.
is limited; secondly, child labor
deprivirg the child of school educa
tion.. Thirdly, too much b00l
knowledge-book knowledge withou
practical education avails young mar
, very little, especially when he has t.
brush up against the rough edges o
the business world. Unionism toda,
, is producing machine labor withou
!, the thorough knowledge of trade
! and the result is that the machin
, laborers mete out but humble exist
, ence.
In Trenton, New Jersey, no less tha
, five Thousand children under the ag

/ same evil exists in New York an
i other large cities. The child learn

!. eighteen he finds himself without
