EFFECT OF THE PURE FOOD LAW.
Driving Many Worthless Catarrh
Medicines Out of Existence.

Many worthless remedies that have
been advertised for the cure of ca
tarrh have been driven out of exist
ence by the Pure Food Law.
This has naturally increased the
sale of reliable remedies, and those
that fulfill the provisions of the law.
Hyomei, for example, has a larger
sale than before, and Fred D. Pierce
still sells it under a guarantee that it
will cure catarrh or the money will be
refunded.
Breathe Hyomei three or four times
daily through the neat pocket inhaler
that comes with every outfit, and it's
healing air will reach the most remote
parts of the nose, throat and lungs
killing all catarrhal germs and
soothing and healing any irritation
in the mucuos membrane.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs
S1.00, extra bottles, if needed, SOC,
and sold by Fred D. Pierce under the
guarantee that it will cure or cost
nothing.

Last week at Washington the an
nual meeting of the Forestry associa-
ton took place. 1t was, first of all, a
celebration, for, as DIR. Will, the AS
sociation's secretary ,Isaid in his re-
port, in the entire history of the for
est movement in America the year
1906 was the most notable, in its rapid
expansion, national and state, in the
strengthening of forest education,
aud particularly in activity of the
American Forestry association, which
during the year gained twenty seven
hundred new members! In his ad
dress the Associations President, the
Hon. james Wilson, Secretary of
Agriculture, brought out the impera-
tive need of forest preservation and
extension, showing that the scarcity
OF wood to-day compared with the
quantity available inthe past is begin
ming to be felt by everyone through
out the country. The steadily in
creasing general demand outruns
production. The disheartening re-
suits attending some attempted Ma
tic nal legislation moved him to urge
upon the separate states to make
more of forestry as state issue, in
asmuch as it would rebound to their
respective interests in the future.
These remarks were confirmed by
DIR. Edward Everett Hale, who show
ed how the national income of GER
tain European countries has been
wonderfully incre ased by proper

representatives by its committee on
agriculture. A majority of the house
is understood to favor it; yet it may
not be permitted to come to vote.
Why? Because the speaker of the
house, influencing the committee on
rules, blocks the way. He says that
if the proposition included only the
White Mountains, park there might
be feasible; but that "to buy up half
the Southern states" is sttoo big"
When we remember tnat the floods
in one year, 1902, caused loss in the
Southern states of eighteen million
dollars, sweeping away cotton and
sawmiIls and distributing silt from
the mountains over farms through a
wide region to it's ruin, one wonders
how Mr.. Cannon can oppose such a
measure, especially one likely to
lessen the swollen River and Harbor
Bill. How is it that, when bill has
passed the senate and been recon-
mended to the house by one of its
largest committees, has beforehand
the presidents approval, with the
active support of every governor and
of prominent business men in many
states, one official may prevent the
national house of representatives
from considering it? The Outlook
reader who is interested in this ad-
mirable work can help it on by writ
ing to his representative in Congress,
asking him not only to vote for this
measure if it comes up, but also to
see that it does come up for action.

From the fountain of life constantly drink,
Daily let Providence care for your life,
Twill steady your bark amidst all the
strife.
Then when you think of your home on this
earth,
The place of your growth, the place of your
birth,
Pray for those loved V no are nearest to thee,
Then for thy nation, the land of the free
Let heaven so uch to all of US teach,
Come to US first. making gentle our speech
Marvellous works wall then come to our hands,
Our eyes shall behold the heavenly lands.
Gently at last may it sing in your cart
Living for heaven, may this be your part
Working for heaven, then, Gods will is done,
Seeing the heaven III every one.
Mediate on heaven both day and ight,
Let not the angels have taken their flight
Till deep in your heat their Joy sweetly
sinks,
For man is made by the thoughts that he
thinks.
Once more for you glad Easter is here,
The day-star of hope for you shall apr ear,
In song of angels taking part
new resurrection comes in your heart.

Never a Finished City.

No man now living can expect to re
main on earth long enough to find the
finished city, or the city that is adj
mittedly governed upon ideal princi-
pies. New views enforce new condi-
tons, and it is forever to be seeking
after something. better. This country
has great many towns that are said
to be finished, but they do not play any
important part in the nations doings

then, turning to the other extreme,
instapced Syria, where abject poverty
exists principally because the land is
deforested. After listening to other
addresses of an equally important
character, the Association put. itself
on record by recommending to Con-
gress to loan to the Forest Service
the sum of FIVE million dollars as
working capital for the development
of the forest reserves, loan also re-
commended by President Roosevelt
in a recent message; next urging up
on Congress the repeal of the Timber
and Stone Act, 80 long a source Of
fraud and loss to the Government,
and the substitution therefor of leg
islation providing that land more
valuable for timber than for other
purposes shall hereafter not be subject
to entry of any kind; thirdly, warn
ing investors, irrespective of locality,
of the danger of loss in their invest
ment unless the government safeguards
forest conditions-a novel but neces-
sary appeal, since the general welfare
is being ipjuriously affected by the
increasing scarcity and cost of wood
materials, and many savings are IN
vested in various enterprises depen-
dent on water power, which would be
ruined by forest destruction.
But the most strenuous of all the
resolutions passed at the meeting of
the American Forestry association
was that concerning the proposed
Appalachian and White Mountain re-
serves. In the West more than
hundred million acres of, reserves
have thus far been secured. The
East has no similar reserves, yet they
are no less needed for the preservA-
ton of timber and the prevention of
drought. The White Mountain forest
range regulates the flow OF
the five principal New England
rivers; the lower Appalachian range
regulates the flow of all the largest
rivers south of the Ohio and east of
the Mississippi. The two ranges thus
hold one of the chief sources of the
wealth of thirteen states-their water
power. The bill to establish the APP
palachian and White Mountain re-
serves, when first proposed, was OPP
posed by those who declared that
each individual state should attend to
the matter for itself, following New
York states example in the Adiron-
dacks. But the states concerned in
the proposed reserves are pecuniarily
unable to do so.
Again, the creation and maintenance
of reserve often concerns other
states than that or those in which the
proposed reserves would be. Finally,
federal control is more efficient than
state control. Hence, the bill to
establish Appalachian and White
Mountain reserves ultimately passed
the senate without dissent, and was
unanimously reported to the house of

Weighing the Soul.

That the human soul does exist is
the conclusion of some Massachusetts,
physicians, Doctors Duncan, Mac
Doug6ll, and Syroul of Haverhill, and
Doctor circuit of Lawrence, who for
six years have been conducting a re-
markable series of experiments, I'M
dertaken with the object of demon
strating from a physical standpoint
whether or not there is such a thing
The experiments were carried on in
a Massachusetts sanatorium and have
been secretly guarded until an actual
result could be shown. Now, it is be-
lieved that something decisive has
been produced.
The difference between the weight
of the live human body and the body
a moment after death, or when the
soul has quilted it, was found to be
from one-half ounce to one ounce,
and to this it is said there can be no
other possible solution than that this
is the weight Of the human soul.
In every case the loss was shown
after all known scientific, deductions,
such as the loss of respiratory air, of
moisture, and of ali excretions and Sc
cretions of the body had been taken
into consideration.

Population: About $4,000, 900, of
whom 10, 100000 are directly affected
and 1000, 900 in dire straits and danger
of death from starvation, exposure
and famime-bred disease.
Cause: Almost continuous rains,
last autumn, which fell for forty days.
Rivers and streams overflowed the

Grand Canal, which traverses the
district for about 500 miles, was a
potent cause of continued overflow
Crops in the ground, or garnered,
