TO THE PEOPLE OF MONTGOMERY. Open Lettfr From Kind Hearted
 OhiOan.

The following letter Will be of great interest to our readers. It breathes the true spirit of charity, of helping others. May il do the good that Mr. Carpenter hopes for:
 TO the People Of Montgomery:
 Although l may be unknown to you, yet l hope my experience will carry the weight that earnestness always should. l believe in doing good to my fellow men. and in no way can 1 help them better than in pointing out the road to health.
 Hyomei the treatment that cures catarrh without stomach dosing has done me so much good that I want everybody to know of it's merits. I had q very bad case of catarrh, and Hyomei completely cured me. l have recommended it to my neighbors, and they, too, have been cured. Now I want everybody in all parts of the country to know what Hyomei has done for me"
 George W. Carpenter,
 Vincent, Ohio"
 Hyomei contains the healing ball. sams that are found in the air upon the mountains. where catarrh is un- known. It destroys all catarrhal germs in the air passages of the head. throat and lungs, and makes complete cures. A complete outfit costs but $1., while extra bottles can be obtained for 50 cents. Ask Mir. Fowler to show you the strong guarantee under which we sell the treatment

A Few EpigramN.
Life


 Everything that is most beautiful in life and art owes its existence to i'm pulse-not to intention.
 Women should not make laws In stead they should bring up their chill dren in way that would make laws unnecessary.
 Science is religion. Ik teaches us to know nature. And mature is the visi- ble half of God. Whether He will or not-every scientist Is a high priest.
 As well as search the air for the souls of all our dcad-we might search the earth for all their bodies,
 To strive is more than to succeed.
 Who gives most, asks most.

THE PRESIDENTS INAUGURATION.

The beginning of President Roose- velt's term as an elected President was made the occasion for a grsat demon- stration at Washington last Saturday. There were long lines of soldiers. im- mense amount of bunting and at night illumination of many prominent houses That he enjoyed 1t all to the utmost is evident from the press re- ports that have been published all over the country. That he likes spectacu- lar affairs has been demonstrated time and again. Many of the most import ant events of his life have been con- ducted in highly spectacular style. His career as President has been so far more or less spectacular and pyro- technical. Whether transition from accidental to chosen President will have any effect on his methods of thought and action remains for the fu- ture to decide.
 It can be said that there was nothing peculiarly out of the ordinary in what he said in his inaugural address. Some
 D90h iHdue to the enecC that there are yelled declarations IS to future acts in connection with the Monroe doctrine, the trusts and the tarin, but from our reading we are unable to discover anything of the sort. We certainly hope that his con- duct of affairs will be all that the most patriotic citizen can expect and that his, administration will be marked by prudence and conservatism in every particular.

Not since the days of De Lesseps and his Panama Canal scheme, where mill lions on top of millions of dollars were wasted or stolen in the most shame less manner, has there been such an opportunity for rich pickings as will be afforded by our own isthmus cut ting project. It can hardly be expect ed that the work will be completed in less than a score of years, and some three hundred millions of dollars is not an extravagant estimate. Already one scandal of no small proportions has developed in connection with a purchase of lumber in an unauthorized way, and 1t may fairly be assumed that this is but the beginning. If graft and grab do not march hand in hand through the entire business we shall be badly deceived.

A HUMAN CREATOR

Once again we are asked to believe that the mystery of life has been re- vealed, that creation Is no longer an attribute of Almighty powerl and that man himself can produce living beings by chemical processes. This time the claim is made by pr. Jacques Loeb of the University of California, but 1t is not the first time that such claims have been put forth. Newspaper read- CTS will remember the stir that was created some years ago by the claims of an English scientist, as we now re- member. He claimed that he had pro- duced living organisms from perfectly pure water, and great things were pre- dicted, but if anything tangible came of 1t we have lost sight of it, or of its results.
 It may also be recalled that this same Dr. Loeb made similar claims a. few years ago, but others who tried to verify his experiments failed to suc- ceed. Now he repeats his claims and proposes, so we are informed, to es- tablish them. He may do this so as to deceive the unwary. for 1t is known that there are many living organisms fin water and other fluids which are not visible to the natural eye It may be possible to nourish these atoms by chemical or other means, or even to combine two or a number of them, so that the resulting organism will be visible and appear to have, or really have. actual life. Such a feat would be very much like the work of the ma gician who produces articles from an apparently empty bag or vessel. If the Doctor has really learned the se- cret of life. and can produce it from nothing, as 1t were, where will he stop? Does he hope to go on and up till he can create a living animal or a human being2 It really seems that this is going too far in science.
 The Butte Inter Mountain, com menting on these alleged discoveries. argues that if the scientific fellows can produce life why may they not reverse the process and sterfllze all creation? It asks what an achievement, should science, fin Its deep cunnina, be able ar tifca1ly to make barren the mosquito. the cock-roach, the bed-bug and the hornetl How happy the race should the gnat. the teetse-fly and the wasp cease to come forthi Rising higher in the scale of life. why could not reptiles be eliminated? Nay, so bright in the future of science, by this inverse pro- cess. may not man hope that at some future time we may rid ourselves of the book agent, the collector, and the man with stories about his slx-months- old simply by refusing to allow them to be born Verify the possibilities of science are boundIess in the imasi- nations of enthusiastic dreamers.

by this government to develop the
navy in the direction of Strengthening
it's battleship line. The torpedo boat
has not been discarded. but has been
relegated to a subordinate position,
and while gunboats and cruisers are
being adedd to the navy for service as
policemen in time of peace, the real
fighting strength is being developed
by increasing the number of battle
ships. Admiral Dewey, like many OF
his fellow officers, does not think well
of the Russian personnel. but, cal

his theory of battleship strength, the
Russians have a decided advantage
