hot AFTER new
!; COUNTY JOB

Around the courthouse these
days the chief topic Of interest is
the probability of the next legisla-
ture creating the ONCE Of county
recorder at salary of about
$2,40O or $4,000 per annum, with
about three deputies at about 500
per month each. 1t is generally
taken for granted that the legisla-
ture will create the Office and al
ready the scramble for the appoint
ment, which will be made by the
county commissioners, is on.
]. s. Phillips, a member Of the
incoming board of commissioners,
says he has been approached by
eight different candidates for
county recorder in one day, to all
of whom he stated that he would
make no promises or give the
matter much attention until the
office is first created.
The number Of county deputies
that will be minus jobs on Janu-
airy II makes a large field of en-
tries in the race for the county
recordership, which is being press
ed with vigor before the bill Great
ing the Office is even framed.
1t is said that members of the
Spokane county delegation to the
legislature have served notice on
the men who control politics at
the courthouse that the legislators
want a word in the naming of the
recorder or that their voice and
vote will be used in opposition to
the bill.

quarter of an hour each week to
reading from them to the children,
and to instructing the pupils how
to be careful with fires.
At this season, when the
Christmas tree danger is at hand,
the words Of warning to the
children are along that line, the
little ones being told how the
tree may catch fire, and what to
do II this happens.
Ohio is the first state in the
Union to adopt instruction on
fire danger as a part of the pub
lie school course. The law was
passed by, the last legislature, aft
er the disaster at Collinwood.
A rather unique Office is that
held by the author of the book
in use in the schools. He Is DR..
Clarence Maris, and he is known
as "pyrologist" to the state fire
marshal. In other words, he is
an expert on fires, and aids the
marshafs department in solving
all mysteries connected with fires.

ASPHALT TRUST
CONQUER0R

An interesting sidelight on the
Venezuelan trouble, with which
Geographic news is now filed, is
thrown by the stock market wires.
In brief, this report predicts a big
advance in General Asphalt Co.
stock. There have been impor-
tant discoveries in oil on the prop
critics in Trinidad, and the passing
of Castro means they will get back
their asphalt in that country"
Castro is chased out of his coun-
try, and this is reminiscent of the
fight he made against the asphalt
trusts campaign to get control of
Venezuela's great natural product.
In this enterprise the trust has
financed revolutions against Cas-
tro. officers of the trust having ad-
mltted that the trust furnished
Matos 100000 for rebellion
against Castros government. For
this the trust was outlawed by the
Venezuelan courts and heavily
fined.
Roosevelt himself remarked that
the asphalt trust did not come to
the government with clean hands"
Notwithstanding, the Monroe doc
trine has been subjugated to the
extent of permitting Holland to do
what Cleveland refused on threat
of war to permit England to do.
Elihu Root, corporation attorney,
was not then secretary of state,
however.
And the outcome is big in
crease in asphalt trust stock.

CURES ECZEMA QUICKLY
New Drug, Poslam, Now Obtain
able in Small Quantities,

cbiS III SIldIi SQdflkttiCSs
Since its discovery one year ago
the new drug, poslam, has success
fully cured thousands of chronic
cases of eczema and other distress
ing skin Affections. Heretofore
poslam has been dispensed solely
for the benefit of eczema patients
in large jars sufficient for
months treatment. This was found
to be an inconvenience to many
thousands who use it for minor
skin troubles, such as pimples,
blackheads, herpes, acne, scaly
scalp, complexion blemishes, itch
ing feet, piles, etc, which require
but small quantity to cure. To
overcome this, and in response to
urgent appeals, the dispensers of
poslam have been obliged to adopt,
in addition to the regular two-dol-
lar package, special fifty cent
size, which in future may be found
on sale at Murgittroyd's and Rit-
ter's Drug Stores. and other lead
ing drug stores IN Spokane. or
may be ordered direct from the
Emergency Laboratories, No. 80
West 25th street, New York City.
In all eczema cases poslam stops
itching with first application, and
proceeds to heal Immediately
chronic cases being cured in TIC
weeks. In less serious skin trou
bles. results are seen after an
overnight application.
Samples for experimental r.or
poses may still be had, fro =
charge, by writing to the J1ahora
tories for them. ~

By Robert Browning. Fear death-to feel the fog in my throat,
 The mist in my face, When the snows begin, and the blasts denote
 am nearing the place; The power of the night, the press of the storm,
 The post of the foe; Where he stands, the Arch Fear is visible form,
 Yet the strong man must go; For the jourhey is done and the summit attaip'd,
 And the barriers fall; Though battles to fight ere the guerdon be gain'd,
 And the reward of 1t all. was ever a fighter, so-one fight more,
 The best and the last! would hate that death bandaged my eyes, and forbore,
 And bade me creep past. Nol let me taste the whole of 1t, fare like my peers,
 The heroes of old; Bear the brunt, in a minute pay glad lifes arrears
 Of pain. darkness and cold. For sudden the worst turns the best to the brave,
 The black minutes at end, And the elements rage, the fiend-voices that rave.
 Shall dwindle. shall blend, Shall change, shall become first 2 peace out of pain,
 Then light. then thy breast, o thou soul of my soul l shall clasp thee again,
 And with God be the rest!
