There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable.
For great many years doctors pro-
nounced it local disease and prescribe
local remedies, and by constantly fail
ing to cure with local treatment, pro-
nOunced it incurable. Science has
proven catarrh to be a constitutional
disease and therefore requires constitu-
tional treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure,
manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co.,
Toledo, Ohio, is the only constitutional
cure on the market. 1t is taken inter-
nally in doses from 10 drops 20 a tea
spoonful. Il acts directly on the blooC
and mucous surfaces of the system.
They offer one hundred dollars for any
case it fails to cure. Send for circulars

Republican Defeat Predicted.

John S. Wise. one of the most emf
nent Southern Republicans but now re-
siding in New York, made an address
lately before the Maryland Bar Asso-
citation in Capitalization by Construc-
tion." He said President Roosevelt's
attempt to broaden Federal power by
Interpretation is to make an India
rubber Constitution" and declared that
the doctrine of Federal power, increas-
ed by construction under the plea of
changed condition, is the most insidi-
Gus and dangerous heresy brought be-
fore the people of America. But John
S. Wise belongs to the old Lincoln
school of politics that is entirely out
run by the strenuous type of Republi-
cans of today. The speeches of Presi-
dent Roosevelt, said Mr.. Wise. Indicate
a singular ignorance of the boundary
line between Federal and State powers
and he predicted that the people would
not uphold party which advocated
Federal or State aggression.
Republicans who think as Mr.. Wise
does must needs come over to the Dem
ocracy and will undoubtedly rdo so if
wisdom is shown in platform declara-
lions and selection of candidates.

Here in Washington President Roose-
yelt's NapOleanic move of massing in
the Pacific the greatest hotilla of bat
tleships ever assembled in any waters
has prematurely revealed a plan whose
political purpose is as plain as day. In
withdrawing his first denial that any
such intention was entertained, the
President from Oyster Bay issued.
through Loeb, a second statement to
the effect that it was not the intention
Of the Government to send this fleet
OF battleships TO the Pacific "at once. :"
Of course they are not to be sent at
once. The purpose of sending them
being purely political, the movement
will be reserved until late in the year
1907, and during the whole of the year
1908, until after election in November.
Those who study the situation and look
beyond the mere day; know that the
present dynasty has decided that some
thing must be done to distract public
attention from our over-discussed do
nestle conditions. They have been
talked to death. all except the tariff
and as that will not down, it is neces-
sary to divert public attention from it.
What more pregnant topic for debate,
or the development of mob heat, than
the fact that you have a neighbor on
your border acting suspiciously, so sus-
piciously that it is necessary for you to
maintain at the danger point the great
est fotilla of battleships ever brought
together in time of peace. When this
debate is on. which Mr.. Roosevelt is
obviously preparing for, no eloquence,
however great, will be strong enough
to fix public attention upon the revis-
ion of schedules or the discussion of
any domestic political abuse.
Considering how personally-profit-
able foreign wars have been in the
career of the late Police Commissioner
of New York, oneTneed not wonder at
the evidence of the preparations now
being made to lingo a successor to Mr..
Roosevelt into the Presidency in 1908.

From Our Special COrrespondent

Washington, D. c., July Is, 1907
Since saying last week that means
were being used to round up the Fede-
raj officials for Secretary .Cortelyou for
the Republican nomination for Presi-
dent, further evidence has come to
light that the scheme is working. Con-
gresham Jesse Overstreet declared, a
few days ago, that the delegation
from New York is fixed for Cortelyou,
but as Mr.. Overstreet is a Fairbanks
man he may have joined in exposing
the COrtelyOus conspiracy on purpose to
embarrass President Roosevelt, for he
said he did not expect to see Mr.. Cor
telyou nominated. Then along comes
Senator Elkins, of West Virginia, fresh
from political conferences in New York
with this Wall Street railroad friends
and declares: "Cortelyou will I'M
doubtedly have the support of the New
York delegation. And you know what
that means. With Overstreet and
Elkins enlisted for him and the corpo-
ration money ready to be poured out
for him. Mr.. Cortelyou will make a
typical Republican candidate.

THE HOME DOCTOR.

Dried fig dipped In milk, toasted and then applied to a gumboil will bring quick relief.
 There Is nothing to beat rhubarb juice as a cure for gout or rheumatism except water from medicinal springs.
 When food will not stdy on the stom- ach put one teaspoonful of lime water In a glass of milk and sip 1t slowly.
 A dressing made of powdered borax moistened with cold water will prevent pain or inflammation from a cut or wound.
 Common mustard used as a plaster or poultice Is the best cure for cold on the chest, and the white of an egg with sugar Is the finest medicine for hoarseness.
 AS soon as cold sore appears, wet the spot with camphor and cover with powdered subnitrate of bismuth. Cam phor by itself will also lessen the in flammation.

Life, Not Death.

There Is much difference in the psy- chological effect of the two ideas life" and death" This was illus trated, says the writer of Letters From a Surgeon" in the case of Gen. ,eral Frank Bartlett, who was wounded on the Fredericksburg pike In 1864. General Bartlett was brought to the surgeon bleeding profusely from a wound in his head. He was uncon- cious and white as death. The sur geon called his name, but could not rouse him. Passing his finger into the wound, he found the ball had not pene- trated- the bone, but had simply cut an artery in the scalp. This the surgeon bound with ligature. He laid the general on the ground and completed dressing the wound.
 NO harm done. old boyr' he shout ed. "This is only Q flesh wound. You will be all right when I take a stitch or two"
 The good news seemed to bring Gen eral Bartlett to consciousness. He rallied completely.
 T thought I was done for" he said. Well, if I'm all right, here goes."
 Before the surgeon could stop him he was in the saddle and riding at the best gait of his horse back to the front again.

The Ways of the Moonshiner.

The ways of the Boonshiner are pret- ty much the same everywhere. A suit able location consists of a secluded spot with water In abundance. It is Important, should he ever be called upon to defend case In court, for the question of the ownership of the land upon which the still Is located, to be involved in doubt; hence the moonshin- CT gets as near the line of his own land or the land he controls as possible. The stills are primitive affairs and are often made complete in the neighbor- hood in which they are operated. With two or three square yards of sheet cop per the still maker requires but a few hours to make the "b'iler" Home made hogsheads are usually used as fermenters, and the only thing that the illicit distiller has to send "off wander arter" is the worm. Being difficult to secure, the moonshiner prizes his ''worm" highly. and that part of the distillery is usually taken away when the operator leaves.-David A. Gates in Metropolitan Magazine.

DECORATING CLOSETS.

yTry the Effect of Curtains on . Mir
 on the Door.
 A closet door is apt to be a glaring thing and sometimes spoils the har- mony of an otherwise attractive room. In this day, when everything is mnde 10 tell In the furnishing of a house. wo- men are racking their brains to devise some method of improving these neces- sary but by no means ornamental parts of almost every room.
 When the closet Is in the dining room and Is to be used for china the way Is easy. If your china Is all pretty and you do not think the glass too expen- slve take the wooden door away and replace 1t with glass one. or, what is much cheaper and almost as effective in its way, get n curtain of lowered cretonne and suspend 1t from the sec ond shelf of the closet. The top shelf is left open, and upon 1t may be shown the finer pieces of china, while the more ordinary ware Is hidden from view by the curtain.
 Curtains, if they agree with the other Furnishings of the rooms, may be em- ployed in every part of the house, but you will show your wisdom if you use cotton material-cretonnes. pretty mad ras and the like-in the bedrooms rath- CT than wooden materials, which won't wash'and encourage stiffness.
 A mirror sunk into closet door is one of the most satisfactory decora- tions on record, for what woman has not pined for full length mirror? It S also one of the most expensive ways of decorating. but then expensive things are apt to be dear to the femL nine heart.
 Schoolgirls are fond of covering their doors with wire frames filled with photographs and souvenir postal cards. This is rather pretty idea, but is ob- jectionable because of the amount of dust that will collect upon things of this sort.

Origin of ssBluestockings.o

Burke, apropos of "Evelina," paid Fanny Burney this high compliment: we have had an age for statesmen, an age for heroes, an age for poets, an age for artists, but this"-with gal lant bow to Fanny-"is the age for women" The name "bluestockings," given to these distinguished women, arose, according to Fanny Burney in her Memoirs of Her Father" from an apology made by MT. Stillingfleet in declining an invitation of Mrs. Vesey's to a literary meeting at her house. "I Gin not properly dressed for such a party.'a he pleaded. "Pho, pho," she cried, taking him and his dress all in at1a glance, "don't mind dress! Come ir your blue stockings" This he did. and 'those words ever after were fixed in playful stigma upon Mrs. ve- sey's associations. T. P.'s London Weekly.

THE BEDSTEAD.

MetnI the Most Sanitary, Mahogany
 the Most Beautiful. a
 The time has gone by when the bed. stead was simple framework. 1t has developed from a skeleton of plain wood or iron into a magnificent and ex. pensive piece of furniture, and now adays people choose their bedsteads with care. The nickel sort has never proved popular on account of It's cold appearance. As the bedstead Is the largest piece of furniture. 1t naturally has the most to do In giving the room a furnished appearance. Nickel bed steads are only 1t for n summer home. where everything should look cool and refreshing.
 Brass is the best to get in a metal bedstead if one can afford 1t. 1t has a rich, warm look. The patterns diff fer little, but each season finds an im- provement In the finish. The best bed steads are not of solid brass. They have iron supporters running through each separate rod, and this gives the frame stability.
 Although metal bedsteads are con sidered more sanitary by many, they can never be made so handsome as some of the wooden ones, nor can they give such an appearance of comfort. One of the handsomest bedsteads Is of mahogany. It lends an air of solid comfort to bedroom.
 Twin bedsteads of metal or wood are the proper things now It is healthier to sleep alone.-New York Post.

AM going to prove
 to you about the in-
 veStment business as generally conducted today, the following facts
 First-That the people who are selling legitimate investments are devotinS their entire energies to selling them to people who, in the aggregate at the present time, have the least money to invest, instead of those, who, at the present time, in the aSSreSate have the most money to invest.
 Second-That the people who are selling legitimate investment securities today, are not offering the kind of securities that are most suitable and attractive to those, who, at the present time, in the aggregate have the most money to invest.
 Third-Why 1t is that so many people nowadays, have the i'm preSSion that securities that pay per cent. are not safe.
 Fourth-What are the kind of securities, that, at the present time, return the highest rate of interest consistent with absolute safety of principal.
 Fifth-That there Is just as good an opportunity today for the small as well as the large in- veStor to invest his surplus earn inSS in safe securities that will net 6 per cent, as there ever has been in the history of this country.
