Il Matter of Bad Blood Betpeen the
TAO Races
Trouble Now Serious.

There are two races in every person :
blood, one is a red race and the other is
a white race. The red race represents
food and the white race represents the
scavengers. The red race produces
healthy color in your cheeks, healthy
flesh on your bones, strength, brightness
in your yes and all the happiness that
comes from good health. The white
race takes the impurities out of the blood
and wards against disease. There can
not be too many Reds" but if there are
too many whites" then the blood is
said to be thin, the face gets pale, and
the whole body is open to attacks of any
kind of disease.
Graham's Blood Compound wards off
disease and is recommended for all blood
impurities, eczema, pimples, and skin dis
eases.

CARE OF THE SICK ROOM.
Above All Things the Walls Should
Be Kept Dry.

When the bedroom becomes a sick
room there is an added reason why ex-
treme precautions should be used to
keep the room in a thoroughly sanitary
condition.
Above all things. the bedroom should
never be damp. Ii should be nice and
dry. always warm and comfortable in
winter, cool and airy in summer. and
bright and sunny some parts of the
day.
II there is any suspicion OF damp
ness In bedroom 1t is probably due,
if there is wallpaper on the wall, to
the absorption of water by the paper
which frequently acts as a blotting pa
per and holds quantities of water in it.
The use Of wallpaper on walls is to
be deplored: it means disease. Ill
health and unhappiness. 1t is fire.
quently the cause of lung trouble, not
only because of it's dampness but also
because of its power to retain infec-

The desired method of treating a
bedroom wall is to tint it for the ala
bastined wall is a perfect wall. 1t
never flakes of, chips or peels. 1t alb
serbs moisture and expels it. it opens
the pores of the plaster and makes a
room livable and breathable.
The floor in the bedroom should
have light, cleanable, dainty rugs that
can be easily shaken and a floor that
is thoroughly oiled or vanished. that
Will not absorb moisture. The cracks
in the floor should be thoroughly filled
and covered. Woodwork in the bed
room should be attended to carefully.
window sills should be thoroughly var
nished or waxed, and the window cas-.
ings kept in perfect order The doors
should be wiped off frequently as also
should be all the standing woodwork
in the bedroom, as the presence of
dust on woodwork is a menace to
health as well as an evidence of poor
housekeeping.

Sheep Raising in Australia.

The greatest industry Of Australia is
sheep raising. mainly for the sake of
the wool, but also in part, of course,
for the meat. Australia now ranks
second among the great sheep-raising
countries, Argentina being first with
92,000,000 sheep, Australia second with
T2.000.000, and Russia third with 10
100000. Only a few years ago Aus
tralia was first, possessing no less
than 10b,260,000 head of sheep. That
was in 1891. Prolonged droughts were
the cause Of the destruction of many
millions Of Australian sheep, but since
1902 there has been an annual gain.
Yet these sheep were not Indigenous
to Australia. They were first intro
duced in 1897, being of the Spanish
merino species.

The Committee of One Hundred.

: Business men of Colorado have by
the organization of what is known as
the Committee of One Hundred" be-
gun a systematic campaign to adver
tise Greater Colorado" 1t is
. planned to raise a fund of $4,000 for
this work. The fund will be ex-
pended through the medium of the Col
Orado State Commercial Association,
working in harmony with the Commit
tee of One Hundred.
The need of campaign to thor
oughly advertise Colorado in all parts
of the country is best shown by COM
parison with what is being done in
other states. California, for example,
is this year spending $75O,900 for the
purposes of advertising the state
Other western states are also spending
large sums, Colorado being in the rear
in this regard. AS a consequence the
increase III population, industries of
various kinds, etc, has not been in pro
portion n Colorado to what it has
been in ether states. For example,
the alien immigration to Colorado for
1906 showed an increase of twenty-five
per cent. ever that for 1905. Arizona,
however, showed an increase in immi-
grafton of fifty-four per cent; Utah,
forty-seven per cent: Nevada, thirty
one per cent; Nebraska, thirty-two per
cent; and Oregon, thirty-two per
cent.
The Committee of One Hundred is
composed of representative men from
all parts CT the state. In securing the
funds eacn section of the state will be
asked to contribute Larimer county
has already given $1,000 to this fund,
; and Weld county, $500. In addition,
large subscriptions have been received
from business houses and individuals.
The campaign is to be systematic

law prohibiting railway companies
from employing night operators or
towermen under the age of twenty one
years; bulk sales law; law abolish
-
breweries out of the saloon business.
So mucn reform legislation has been
enacted in Nebraska this year that the
Legislature has easily gone beyond the
demands made by the people at the
last election. From the first day of
the session. the watchword of the leg
islature was Reform" On many OF
the more important measures political
lines seemed to have been entirely
wiped out In very few OF the speeches
made at the session just closed have
the political parties figured as such.
The members almost invariably re-
ferred to what the people" demanded
not what this party or the other de-
manded.
1t can be safely said that this is the
first legislature in Nebraska's history
that has carried out all of the prom
ises made by its members in their ef-
forts to be elected. Although there
has been lobby throughout the ses-
sion it has been a small one and 1t has
been careful in it's actions. 1t has
been exceedingly uncomfortable, in
fact. for lobbyist.
All of the lobbying. so far as the
keenest Observers have been able to
see. has been done without the use of
money. Corporations which in other
years maintained expensive quarters,
furnished free service, kept drinks and
cigars, and held open house" during
the session, have this year had simply
one or ;wo quiet representatives in
Lincoln. No other session OF legis-
lature in Nebraska was ever like 1t
