There is one rational way to treat
nasal catarrh: the medicine is applied
direct to the affected membrane. The
remedy is Ely's Cream Balm. 1t re-
stores the inflamed tissues to healthy
state without drying all the life out
of them and it gives back the lost
senses Of taste and smell. The sufferer
who is tired of vain experiments
should use Cream Balm. Druggists

A Judicious Inquiry.

A well known travelling man who
visits the drug trade says he has often
heard druggists inquire OF customers
who asked for cough medicine,
whether it was wanted for child or
for an adult. and II for a child they
almost invariably recommend Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy. The reason
for this Is that they know there is no
danger from 1t and that it always
cures. There is not the least danger
in giving it, and for coughs, colds and
Group, 1t is unsurpassed. For sale by
all druggists.

Care of the Strawberry Bed.

Our strawberry be- is mulched with
leaves, says a writer in e uarden
Magazine. They are put on in the
winter as cover When the bearire
season is over the leaves are rakeo
away from the shes, to afford a
footing for the runners, and the bed
receives no further attention, save an
occasional wedding, until December.
When preparing the bed for the winter
put stable manure, to the dept of
three inches, between the rows, then
GOV, he entire bed with leaves. In
the spring, as soon as the ground can
be worked, rake the leaves into the
spaces between the rows, which are
then spaded up, turning under the
leaves and the manure. The ground
between the plants Is loosened by
pushing a fiat-tined fork down to its
full length and gently working it back
and forth, thus stirring lie ground
without disturbing the roots. The
ground is then raked fine and a
quantity of hard wood ashes sown
thickly over the bed. Once a week,
until the blossoms set, the bed re.
ceives a vigorous raking and wood
ashes are applied Immediately around
each plant, after which the bed is
mulched. The leaves for the mulch
are gathered during the previous fall.

Both Honesty and AbiIIty Needed.

Too often officials are judged from
the standpoint of their political affilia-
tion by those men and newspapers so
narrow they refuse to recognize that
any good exists in a person of other
political belief than their own. No
greater injustice can be done an
official. There are as good men in
one party as in another. and the Off
Gals of one party may be as compe-
tent as those of another if the best
men are placed in Office The stand
ard of Judgment should not be politi-
cal faith, but intent and accomplish
ment. honesty and efficiency. Many
an official has good intentions, but
fails to accomp ish, and many are
honest but not efficient Officials,
then, TO measure to tie real standard,
must have right intentions and the
power and ability to accomplish, and
they must be honest and efficient.
The election of those who cannot
meet this STANDARD is mistake

Trailing Tramps of Air and Sea.

With all our learning, we don't
know much about some of the most
common things For instance, though
men have been catching fish along
all the coasts of the world for many
centuries, no man knows where they
go when they disappear from the
shore waters and swim toward the
deep sea.
So It Is with birds Though their
annual migrations have been written
and sung about ever since the memory
of man, no one knows what tracks
they take, where they stop for rest, or
how fast they travel.
Recently we have begun to wonder
to some purpose about these things
The United States is putting copper
tags on Goldfish every year now ana
turning them loose again. The tags
are attached to the fins, and on them
is a number and the request that the

the tag send it back to the govern.
