FOR THE HOUSEWIFE
Where the Breath Is Offensive.

Offensive breath is caused some
times by decayed teeth The only rem
~edy is to have them attended tO-ex-
tracted, IL that is necessary; filled, IL
possible.
Sometimes the cause arises In the
stomach. For this the disease must be
removed. A bit of cinnamon chewed
or OF Florida orris root or calamus
often helps to make the breath sweet
The mastic tree gives out a sort Of
resinous gum that hardens the gums
and gives a delicate OdOr to the breath.
Mix few drops of spirits Of cam
phor and tincture of myrrh in a glass
Of water and rinse the mouth, using it
also as q gargle when some small in
disposition has affected the breath. A
small bottle of tincture of myrrh may
be kept on the stand and ten drops
used In a little water after the mouth
and teeth are well cleansed. A cup Of
strong black coffee removes the odor
Of onions: SO will a sprig of fresh
parsley, chewed. Charcoal tablets are
good for those with this distressing af-
fectiOn.

Jacob Hope, the head of Philadel.
phia's famous phOnOgraph school for

Philadelphia Record:
"There are worse things than a
swearing parrot. and one was brought
over Oh German boat last month.
His owner, sailor, swOre that this
Travelled bird knew no profanity, and
lady bought him.
But she had to bring him to me.
The parrot, though he didn't swear,
had evidently spent most Of his time
on shipboard in the ladies saloon, for
what he would do was this:
For hours at time he would choke
and gasp and hiccough as If he'd new
er stop, and then he'd sing out feebly,

A decoction Of tannin. oak bark and
myrrh, which any druggist will COM
pound, is excellent for this soft, spongy
condition of the gums. Those who are
affected in this way have to avoid too
salty foods, fruits that are very acid
and also much sweets, pastries, etc.
Radishes sometimes cause softness of
the gums. Too much fat or oils is
also bad in such cases.

WASHINGTON LETTER.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
Herbert Knox Smith, Commits
sioner of Corporations, has just
returned from his vacation, which
he spent in Connecticut, and is
prepared to begin his winter cam
paign against illegal trusts and
in the interest of legitimate cor
porations. "We intend to take
up eight branches of investiga-
tion," said Mr.. Smith to your
correspondent. "These will be
steel, lumber, waterways, coast
wise and the canal and inland
waterways, tobacco, cotton ex-
changes, farm implements, that
is the International Harvester
Company, and patents on agri-
cultural Implements The in
vestigations which have been
conducted by the Bureau of Cor
porations have resulted in the
prosecution of the Beef Trust,
which, through a legal technic-
atty, fell short of conviction, but
which, it is hoped, has proved a
warning to the packers; and the
conviction of the Standard Oil
Company and it's sentence to pay
a fine of $29, 600, 600 or just a lit
tie less than three-fourths of it's
profits for last year. The Bureau
of Corporations does not conduct
prosecutions, as that branch of
the work belongs to the Depart
ment of Justice, which is Uncle
Sans firm of lawyers, so to
speak.
There is no division of the Gov
ernment more cordially hated
than the Bureau of Corporations.
It is hated by the Standard peo-
pie, by the Beef Trust, by the
Steel Trust, and the Lumber
Trust, by the international Har-
vester Company, and all other
institutions and corporations
which object to being prosecuted
when they violate the antitrust
and the anti-rebate laws. It is
so cordially hated that J. P. Nor
gan's daily paper devotes at least
one editorial a week to making
fun of the Bureau and the Com
missioner and to condemning it's
work and methods. There are
other people in the United States,
the great army of consumers, for
instance, who love the Bureau
for the enemies it has made and
they are not likely to take much
stock in the editorials and garb-.
led news stories attacking it's
work. James r. Garfield was the
first Commissioner of Corpora
tions, and then Mr.. Smith was
his assistant. When Mr.. Gar
field became Secretary of the In
terror, after having demonstrated
his great ability to the President
and to all unprejudiced observers
in the former position, the Pres
ident promoted Mr.. Smith to the
head Of the Bureau because he
regarded it's work too important
to be entrusted to a tyro, and
Mr.. Smith had shown marked a.
bility under Mr.. Garfield. And
Herbert Knox Smith has made
good, to use the Presidents own
words.
A singular instance of misrep-
resentation attends the disposal
of the New Foundland fisheries
question. Practically all the
London papers are giving the
full credit to Sir Robert Bond,
the New Foundland premier, for
the decision to send the contro-
versy to the Hague for adjudica-
tion. The fact is that the Hon.

lie interest, and among them tar
iff reform. He favored the re-
form, but thought it best to de-
fer action by Congress until at
ter the presidential election OF
1908, for the reason that the Re-
publican party at that time would
be more likely to unite on the
question. That seemed reasona-
BILE, but Bryan objected to the
delay, calling Taft ''The great
postponer. We see no harm in
mere postponing. The mere put
ting off action for a few days or
weeks in order to secure better
results may be wise indeed. For
instance, Walter Wellman on Sep
tember 2 started his airship for
the north pole, but found himself
bafied by wind and snow and
was obliged to come down on
terra firma in order to save his
airship and his life. He came
down suffering little loss, and
now announces a postponement
of his voyage to the pole until
next summer. Shall we blame
the man for not pushing on to a
sure death?
Taft favors tariff reform at
once if it could be carried out,
but as leader of a great political
party he wants harmonious ac-
ton by the representatives IN
Congress. He is, too, a wise
man to push his ideas forward
against the great leaders Of the
party in Congress. He is willing.
to wait until after the presiden-
tial election and thus catch the
meaning of the Republican mass
es.
Mr.. Lincoln was always care
full to feel the public pulse. He
moved as public sentiment iusti-
fled it. He was often blamed for
not going at a faster gait-was
sneered at because he seemed a.
fraid to risk; but he postponed
action until the proper time.
Shall we blame Judge Taft for
wanting to do likewise? Is it
not political wisdom so to do?
The great postponer? How
strange a sneer coming from W.
J. Bryan! A few months ago ne
returned from a tour Of the Old
World. The Democrats gave him
a great ovation in Madison Square
New York, He was expected to
say something to comfort and
unite more thoroughly the great
party that had honored him with
leadership at two presidential ell
ections. It was expected that
wisdom would shine in all his
great speech. Well, how was 1t!
He proposed for his party the
scheme of government owner
ship of the Railways q central
izing of power at Washington be-
vond even Republican dream.
How did the Democrats receive
it? There was gloom, sadness
and disgust. The party would
have none of his foOling with the
railroads. And what did Bryan
do when he found his idea spurn-
ed by the leading men Of his par
ty? He said in effect, I am
willing to postpone action on that
vexed question until a more fav-
orable time. | believe in gov
ernment ownership Of the rail.
roads; but let the matter be put
off indefinitely" What shall we
say to this shifty opportunist? !?
Well, let US dub him a great
postpCner.
We do not find fault with Bry-
an for putting of his pet idea;
