MORTALITY REPORT
CONSUMPTION AND PNEUMONIA
HEAD DEATH LIST.
Statistics Show That the Greatest
Number of Deaths From Lung
Trouble Occur in Winter.

The Bureau of Census has published
report presenting mortality statistics
for the United States for the five cal.
endar years 1900 to 1904.
AS shown in the table, tuberculosis
of the lungs and pneumonia were by
far the leading causes of death The
greatest number of deaths from lung
trouble occur during the winter
months. Colds are so prolific of lung
trouble that they should not be neg
lected. Persons with weak lungs
should be especially careful
A noted authority on lung trouble
advises that as soon as a cold is con.
tracted the following simple treatment
should be given. The ingredients can
be purchased from any prescription
druggist at small cost and easily nre-
pared in your own home. 1t is said to
be so effective that it will break up a
cold in twenty-four hours and cure any
cough that is curable.
Take one-half ounce Virgin Oil of
Pine (Pure), two ounces of Glyceripe
and eight ounces of good Whisky
Shake well and take in teaspoonful
doses every four hours.
BE sure that the Virgin Oil of Pine

druggists to dispense. Each vial is Sc

limitations of Virgin Oil of Pine (Pure)
which are put out under various

COFFEE THREsHEp HER.
IS Long Years.

For over fifteen years." writes a
patient, hopeful little Ills. woman,
while a coffee drinker, / suffered
from Spinal Irritation and Nervous
trouble. l was treated by good physi-
clans. but did not get much relief.
Il never suspected that coffee might
be aggravating my condition. l was
downhearted and discouraged, but
prayed daily that I might find some
thing to help me.
Several years ago while at a
friends house, 1 drank a cup of Post
um and thought I had never tasted
anything more delicious.
From that time on l used Postum
instead of coffee, and soon began to
improve in health, so that now l can
walk half dozen blocks or more with
ease. and do many other things that
1 never thought would be able to
do again in this world
my appetite is good, 1 sleep well,
and find life worth living, indeed A
lady of my acquaintance said she did
not like Postum, it was SO weak and
tasteless.
II explained to her the difference
when it is made right-boiled accord
ing to directions. She was glad to
know this because coffee did not agree
with her Now her folks say they ex-
pect to use Postum the rest of their
lives" Name given by Postum Co.,

HeiskeII's Ointment
Cures Skin Diseases

For half n century Heiskelrs Ointment has
been used in all cases of skin disease with
most gratifying results. Many have become
entirely cured who had suffered untold pain
and annoyance for years. Ono man in Now
Baltimore, Pa., writes that It cured him when
he was raw all over. A lady in Philadelphia
cured q case of tetter of six years standing
in fourteen days, while a man in Allentown,
Pa, cured his case OF eczema that had trou-
bled him for eleven years with less than two
boxes OF the ointment. These and hundreds
of others have found that Heiskelrs Oint.
ment is worth moro than its weight in gold.
Being a purely vegetable preparation, Hsis-
kelrs Ointment soothes and heals whore
others fail. 1t allays the itching and burn
ing common to all skin disease, and all yisld
quickly to its magic influence.
There are many varieties of skin diseases
with confusing titles, but they are all suscsp-
tible to ono and the same cure--Heiskslrs
Ointment. No one need suffer long II afiiictsd
with any skin disease not of q constitutional
character If they will apply this remedy. This
includes such skin diseases as erysipelas, pru-
rigo, eczema, milk crust, itching piles, scaldb
pimples, freckles. In some cases it is neces.
sary to give some constitutional treatment
as In ery6tpelaS, eczema, etc. ; tho liver should
be toned to healthy action and the blood and
all the secretions purified. In all cases Of
skin disease cures are hastened by the use OF
ointment, and in cleaning up the blood and
liver with HeiskelPs Blood and Liver Pills.
Heiskell's Medicinal and Toilet Soap con.
tains in a modified form the medicinal prop
critics of HeiskelPs Ointment, and is particu-
larly effective in slight disorders of the skin,
as rash, eruptions and abrasions. 1t cleans
perfectly, and in the bath is q great luxury.

LEGISLATIVE NEWS AND GOSSIP

The House passed on second reading
Fetzer's bill providing for a constittl-
| tional amendment by which the noonle
can vote on bond issue to refund ont
standing warrants to the amount of
S25,934.6S. This does not include the
war debt" contracted during Gov
ernor Peabody's' administration A bill
1 is pending providing for a -constitll-
tional amendment to liqufdate that
debt, which, with interest. amounts to
something like s1.00O,OOO. Fetzer ex-
planned that his bill provided for the
warrants covering the period from
1887 to 1897, including those of the no.
tor1ous "robber Seventh" Two consti-
tutional amendments for bond issues
to cover this debt have been voted
down, for the reason, as Fetzer ex-
planned, that they included some ille-
gal warrants and also interest. The
bill now under consideration provides
only for the face value of the war
rants. 1t does not include SAT, 900
worth of warrants designated as
graft" by the Supreme Court, nor in
terest on any portion of the debt
Three-fifths of the warrants are held
by the school fund, and if the bonds
are issued it will give the fund three
per cent. interest, where now it gets
nothing. Fetzer stated that the war
rant holders, as a whole, had expressed
themselves as being willing to accept
face value, foregoing the interest,
which now amounts to more than the
warrants themselves. The following
table shows the debt by years:
Warrants for 1887 and prior $3.50, ZIG. II
Warrants for 1883 and prior 277, ,555. .65
Warrants for 1889 and prior. $40. .704 %
Warrants for 1892 and prior. 6,153.43
Warrants for 1898 and prior 5,9S2.53

Bryan a copyright on trust smashing

money eway. The pension bureau
spent $14 on expenses for every dol

no report, but was paid $15,742. Favor

the dies from the mint and strike coins

the wealthy under the form of ex'

foreign aggressors.

the substance. Tears were shed over
the fall of the old Venetian republic,

people of Corea will gain by the ex'

Japan. There will be a stable curren-

agricultural wealth of the country. The
Corean will have to pay taxes, but he
will get an equivalent. The Corean en-
pire committed suicide, but Corean
people will enter upon a new life.-Chi-
