 He discussed the clements of the crime of bribery showing that it cannot be committed by one alone, that n ecessarily there must be two, that necessarily either the one giving it or the one taking it must testify to that fact, and that this of itself was not enough ], that the state must prove by other testimony that the offense has been committed and that the defendant was one of the parties. He said that men who took bribes were not always bad men to be- gin with, that it was always men who had the confidence of his people at home, and that in all the prosecutions for bribery in the United States the defendants had invariably put the very best men of their home community on the stand, had proven their good standing.
 He closed with a most wonder fluff peroration asking the jury to do, that it was in their hands to deal out justic in this, if true was one of the greatest crimes, that of selling the voice of the people for price.

GINSENG
Information Relating to the Richest Product of ~> the Soil. ~A

Prof. Howard of the Missouri State Agricultural College says: "I advise American farmers to cultivate Ginseng. Big profits are realized. Itis easily grown" A bulletin by the Penneylva- nia State College says: "The supply o [ native Ginseng root is rapidly di . minishing and the price per pound is correspondingly increasing, while the constant demand for the drug in China stands as guarantee of steady mar ket for Ginseng in the future." Amer ican Consul General Wildman at Hong Kong writes: "There will be little difficulty in disposing on this coast of all the Ginseng that is grown in Amer ica.
 Ginseng is staple on the market as same as corn, wheat and cotton. The present market price varies from $6.OO to $500 per pound, while the cost of production is less than $t.50 There is room in one's garden to grow several hundred dollars worth each year. The plant can be grown throughout the United States and Canada in any soil or climate that will grow ordinary gar- den vegetables. There are two plant ing seasons. spring and fall.

Disease Most Prevalent In the Fall
Months-Simpe Way to Cure.

With the cool nights of fall, catarrhal
troubles in Rock Island are becoming
more and more prevalent. and H. o.
Rolls. as a consequence. finds his sales
of Hyomei increasing.
At the first warming of catarrh. one
should begin using HyOmei. A few
days treatment at this season of the
year will often prevent a serious and
chronic attack of catarrh.
There is no stomach dosing with Hy-
|omei. The virtues of its healing oils
and balsams are breathed through a
neat pocket inhaler that comes with
every outfit. and in that way the medi-
cation penetrates to the i ost remote
cells of the nose, throat and lungs. kill
ing catarrhal germs whenever present.

there may be in the mucous membrane
If you have a cold. or there is any

throat; if there is offensive breath, rails
ing of mucous. and smarting and irrita-
ton in the throat: if there are any of
the symptoms that indicate catarrhal
troubles. begin the use of Hyomei at
once.
You take no risk in paying 81 for a
Hyomei outfit, as H. o. Rolls gives his
personal guarantee that if the remedy
does not afford satisfaction, your money
will be refunded at once. Extra bot
ties of HyOmei, if needed. cost but so
cents. making this the most economical
treatment for catarrh, as well as the
