WHISKY" COLD CURES
Danger of Using Alcoholic Mixtures OI
 Coal Tar Tablets.


 Coal Tar Tablets.
 The most dangerous thing that one can do when affected with a cough or cold is to use medicine that contains whisky or a tablet that Is made or some coal tar product. Putting aside all moral objections to filling up with whisky or drugs because one has a cold. the injurious physical effect should be sufficient to keep one from using these strong medicines.
 The most sensible as well as the only scientific way to treat a cough or cold is bv inhaling medication that will kill inc germs and give relief to the irri- tated mucous membrane in the nose, throat and lungs.
 Among the few remedies that are used in this way. Hyomei stands pre- eminent. It is breathed through neat pocket inhaler that comes with every outfit, and tho first breath of it's heal Ing air relieves the irritation, and ifs cure
 The best people in Montgomery al- ways keen Hyomel at hand in the win fer months. and at the first symptoms of A cold or bronchial trouble. use the reinedy and prevent serious and last ing illness. If you have any doubts as to the effects of Hyomei in curing coughs. colds and all bronchial trou- bIes, the guarantee D. c. Fowler i gives with every outfit should convince [ vou of it's curative powers. A Hyomei | outfit costs $l and if 1t does not give l Aatisfaction, MT. Fowler will return 1 your money.
 Extra bottles of Hyonei. if needed, can be obtained for soc. but the com ulste outft is usually enough to cure several colds. s-1s-i

How the present can connect by di- rect links with the distant past is shown by the announcement of the death few days ago in Kansas of a woman whose father served under Gen. eral Washington in the Revolutionary war. That war ended about one hun dred and twentyfour years ago, and the reader can figure out how the story could be possib!e. Unfortunately. the age of the woman was not given in the account we saw of her death, so that a satisfactory deduction cannot be made TAere are yet many persons living Whose grandfathers served in that war, but we suppose It is rare indeed to find one whose father served under Washington.

Long reIegraphIc' 4short Cut.

It will certainly be news to most reople, says The London Globe that New York is short cut for telegrams between Lnrdon and Paris and be. tween London and Berlin. However, the fact is vouched for. The messages are received at an agreed address in New York and are immediately passed on for London, Paris or Berlin, as the case may be. The reason for tHis amazing round about to save time Is curious. New York time being about six hours behind European time, it's wire connections with Europe are al- most unoccupied during the London forenoon, while during the same time European wires are often ccngested. Via New York, therefore, Is a short cut,' but an expensive one.

 pan. leads The Boston Globe to say: If the careful observer will examine closely the wrinkled lines of wrath In Japan's grim-visaged front of war as portrayed by President Roosevelt, It will be seen that they have been paint
 ed in skillfully by hand not untouch- ed by the spirit of play.
 No sensible person will believe that there Is any possibility of war, but all
 sensib,e persons may believe that Pres ldent Roosevelt has peaceful purpose In crying the danger Of war.
 We have never seen any cause of ur- easiness in connection with all this hot air talk about war with Japan. So far as Mr. Roosevelt Is concerned his blow ing on the coais of alleged hostilities
 has been done for two purposes. He wanted to bolster up his indefensible
 position regarding the San Francisco
 affairs, and fiattered himself that he could stir up panic in this country and thus frighten Congress into upholding his attempt to override the laws of Cal ifornia. The country refused 10 be
 'skeered" by the administration.
 But the real cause of all thls red flag chatter has been to bolster up the ar guments in favor of big navy, which arguments are not confined to Roose
 velt, by any means. The advocates of
 more and bigger war ships say to the
 people, in effect: war with Japan Is
 bound to come, and the only thing that
 can save us is a big navy. Let us get
 busy at once or we shall be blown off
 the earth" Such talk is absurd and
 utterly without foundation, but 1t Is about the best they have on hand. Roosevelt'e peaceful purpose" Of which The Globe speaks. is really the scheme of q blusterer who sees war threatening us-~which nobody else with clear vision can dlscover---and hopes <by harping on that string to induce Congress to carry out his extravasant navy plans. That is all there is to it.

It does not entirely destroy the force of this comparison to say that few teachers could lay bricks straight or carry bod for eight hours.
