The Royal Month and the Royal
Disease.

Sudden changes OF weather are especially
trying, and probably to none more SO than
to the scrofulous and consumptive. The
progress of scrofala during normal Octo-
Der is commonly great. We never think
OF scrofula-its punches, cutaneous erup-
tons and wasting Of the bodily substance
without thinking of the great good many
sufferers from it have derived from Hoods
5arsaparllla, whose radical and permanent
cures OF this one disease are enough to
make it the most famous medicine in the
world. There is probably not a CITY or
own where Hoods Sarsaparilla has not
proved its merit in more homes than one.
IN arresting and completely eradicating
scroiuia, which is almost as serious and az
much to be feared as its near relative
consu mption.

Political advertising, in whatever
part Of The newspaper it appears,
should be marked in way to indicate
to the reader that it is paid matter and
not the original expression of the
editor or the newspaper. Any other
system carries deception. 1t will not
suffice to answer that other kinds of
advertising are not marked, hence
political advertising need not be.
Readers know by long experience
what is paid matter when the subject
is merchandise, medicine and the
like. 1t is unnecessary to warn them
that they are reading the statements
OF dealers, not the publishers. Politi-
cal advertising is new and different.
Politics is a common subject OF dis
cussion by newspapers, editorially
and otherwise. Unless care is taken
ana paid political matter is plainly
marked, the reader is led into the
belief that what he reads is an utter.

rather than that candidate, bureau

the public through his paper, let such
matter be run elsewhere and So
labeled that it cannot possibly be
mistaken for the statements or opin.

About sundown he started back for

Leduc's gun was light weapon OF

in preference to risling the continu-
ance of his journey. There he re-
manned all night. and for hours, he
says. he could see the gray shadows
stealthily moving about. their green
eyes flashing. Once or. twice he fired
at some of the pack which ventured
nearer than the others. Just before
the day broke the animals disappear

Between 200 and 800 pounds of seeds

being sent across the sea.
Oregon fir and spruce are growing
on thousands of acres of territory in

Margin of Proft.

The industry is operated on a mar
gin of less than cents to each dol
lar of sales. Swift G. Co. do not sell
at retail. Their entire output is sold
at Wholesale to many thousands of
dealers in various parts of the world.
There are hundreds of local slaughter
ers throughout the United States,
who buy their live stock in competi-
tion with the packer doing an inter-
state and international business. Like
wise the packer must sell in compe-
tition with the local slaughterers.
There are no secret processes in the
industry, no complicated and expen-
sive factories, and as live stock can
be purchased in almost every hamlet
and city. and the preparation of
meats is simple in the extreme. local
slaughtering will long remain fac

Whose Say-so is Best?

With nearly all medicines put up for
sale through druggists, one has to take
the makers say-so alone as to their cura-
tive value. OF course, such testimony is
not that OF a disinterested party and
accordingly is not to be given the same
credit as II written from disinterested
motives. DIR. Pierce's medicines, how
ever, form single and therefore striking
exception to this rule. Their claims to
the confidence of invallds does not rest
solely upon their makers say so or
praise. Their ingredients are matters of
public knowledge, being printed on each
separate bottle wrapper Thus invalid
sufferers are taken into DIR. Pierce's full
confidence. Scores OF leading medical
men have written enough to fill volumes
In praise OF the curative value of the
