Under the old Democratic re-
gime in Missouri the state funds
on deposit never earned more than
$53, 900 annually in interest. In
1906, under Republican treasur-
or, the deposits earned over SIG.
900 and in nine months Of the cur.
rent year they earned SCI, 900. In
1901 the Democrats only got about
S3,400 interest on the entire fund,
in the state repositories, and thi;
would naturally lead to the qnos
tion, were the funds really in the
dopositories, or were they loanet
out to party favorites without in
terest? 1t certainly looks llk'
someone was enjoying big rakeotf

Joe Cannon has just remarked
that stranger things had happened
than that Roosevelt would be pres
ident until 1912. You're right
Uncle Joe; we remember that
Roosevelt pcrsi.tently and posi-
lively refused to accept the nomi-
nation for vice-president in 1900 if
he were nominated, but the people
told him what he had to do. They

Tho Democrats insist that tariff

The Democrats insist that tariff
revision is an important issue in
the present campaign, but so far
as the l.eople themselves are con-
ccrning themselves about tho mat
ter the tariff will not figure strong
ly in determining the result Of the
election different from what they
have demanded and secured in the
past decade. The voters cannot
separate the Democratic demand
for tariff revision from the party :
free trade notions, and this fac,
alone will prevent them from turn
ing congress over to the Demo
Gratis. The tariff may need SOME
revision, but it does not need it bat
enough to put the task of revising
it into the hands of the Democrats
We believe the voters of this coa
gressional district will be Just Il:

Compromises In Married LIE

III marriage meant the wedding
of saint and an angel there would
be no problems to solve, no per-
fectlon TO attain, no progress to
make. This NAV DC WHY there
arc no marriages in heaven. On
earth. it Is different; husband and
wife are strongly human. No mat
ter how lovingly united OF how
sweet their accord, they never have
the same temperaments, tendencies
or tastes. Their needs arc differ
ent, their munner of looking st
things is not Identical. and in vari-
ons ways their int.ividua!!tias as.
| sert themselves. Al any critical
moment II both express ut the
same time, Il desire to defer to the
othcr's taste, the result is toreOr-
daincd for hapl,ine-s. This makes
matrlmony not merely union, but
unison and unity. The spirit Of
compromise does not mean con
tinuous performance in the way OF
self and self sacrifice: it
does not mean ceasing to be voice
and becoming an echo; it does not
imply or Justify the loss OF indivi-
duality; it means simply the in
stinctive recognition of the best
way out Of a difficulty, the quick
est tacking to avoid a collision. the
kindly view Of tolerance in the
presence OF weakness and errors
of another, the courage to meet an
Iexplenation half way, the generos-
ity to be tir>t t. apologize for Ii
discord, the !argeness Of mind tnat

NO EXCUSE FOR CATARRH
Worst Cases Quickly Cured by the
Breathing of Hyomei. Guaranteed
By Shackle Drug Company,

There is really not the slightest ex-
cuse for anyone having catarrh, now
that Hyomei is SO widely known and
so easily obtained. The worst cases
of catarrh are quickly cured by sim
ply inhaling the remedy through the
pocket inhaler that comes with every
outfit
Used in this way for a few minutes
four times a day, every particle of
air tLat reaches the nose, throat and
lungs is laden with germ killing and
health-giving Hy0mei.
The sale of the old fashioned stom-
ach remedies for catarrh has been re-
duced to almost nothing since the in
PRODUCTION Of Hyomei The Shackie
Drug Company will tell you that
their sales on this out-of-date line
have fallen off at least two-thirds in
the last few years, while ke demand
for Hyomei has increased as its cur
ative powers become more widely
known.
The complete outfit, consisting of
a neat pocket inhaler, medicine drop
per- and bottle of Hyomei costs
only one dollar, while extra bottles
can be obtained for 80 cents, making
Hyomei the most economical, as well
as the most reliable method for cur
ing catarrh.
Shaekle Drug Company positively
guarantee a cure when used in aecor-
dance with directions, or they will re
fund the purchase price.
