Camphor to Break Up a Cold.

One of the most efficient remedies
for breaking up a cold during its
earliest stage is camphOr. When the
eyes begin to water and there Is the
accompanying tingling Of the nose and
feeling Of chiliness, place three drops
of camphor on a lump OF loaf sugar
and place the sugar in the mouth.
Repeat this every Is minutes till
four or five doses have been taken.
At the same the place the feet where
they will become thoroughly warm.
This will usually prove effectual in
breaking up a cold If the cold Is taken
at its very beginning. For child but
one drop should be placed upon the
sugar, and i've or six doses admins
tcred-llealth.

WORK AHEAD FOR ROLLER.

To our minds it is a most serious and
dangerous precedent that President
Roosevelt has done his best to establish
that the President may use all the
vast machinery of the civil service TO
determine who shall be the party s
choice for President.
In spite of the methods that have been
used to compass Mr.. Taft's nomination
and in spite of the elements in his own
marty that are antagonistic to him, 1t
will not do to conclude that he Will
necessarily be weak candidate lie
will be supported with the intensest
zeal by the President of the United
States and the great army of officehold
ers. The country has never seen more
formidable organization than the road
roller" machine built by the Taft man
ayers. 1t will work rs vigorously Tor
his election as it did for his nomination.
The convention deliberately voted
down a plank calling for publicity OF
campaign contributions. This &C
ton makes it perfectly clear that the
convention intended that the candidate
should have the full benefit Of the friend
ship of the trusts and the railroads
Morgan and the Steel Trust helped to
make the platform, and they may be ex-
pected to do their full duty IN bringing
about the election of the candidate.
As TO Mr.. Taft personally, it is to be
said that he is a man of high character,
and of much more than average ability.
But no one can know what promises
have been made which would hamper
him if elected; but everyone knows he
was supported by the men who never 90
anything in politics except for consid-
Grafton. y Even some of the best
friends of the President, men who would
have been glad to vote for him FOR
third term, did not relish the idea OF
taking candidate from his hands Here
is the weakness Of the Taft candidacy.
Whether it will prove serious or not we
shall soon learn. We should say if there
we're any other Democratic candidate
than Bryan in sight there might be
formidable revolt in the Republican
party. But even Bryan is far stronger
than he was in 1896, and many men,
bitterly opposed to him then, are now
able to think of him as a candidate
without serious apprehension. AT least,
the old panic feeling is gone. One thing
is certain, and that is that the days Of
Republican walkovers have gone by. We
shall have n real fight this year, with
slight prospect Of sweeping victory on
either side. Indianapolis News Rep.

No Place for Doqs.

Is it impossible in Japan to keep
good dog? have twice had my dogs
disappear in seemingly miraculous
way.
AS | am well aware that there is a
great demand for dog skins, especially
those of young dogs, we have been
careful in having our dog watched;
nevertheless, he disappeared the other
morning.
Almost every foreigner has lost a
dog or dogs, and even a sea captain
who was three days on shore had his
dog poisoned the first day ne put his
feet on land.-Japan Chronicle.

Driven Out by Pure Food Law.

During the past half dozen years
there has been constant cry for pure
food, and this clamor has caused near
ly all the states, and the national gov
eminent as WELL to enact pure food
laws. II there has been need for re-
form it has been In lettering the
classes Of foods which are intended
to feed the millions as we'll as keep
them in good health, and improving
the conditions under which they are
prepared.
Such frauds had grown up in food
stuffs that it was imperative that
stringent measures be taken to pro-
tect the lives and the health Of the
people. Unprincipled persons engaged
in manufacturing Of baking powders.
flavoring extracts. the selling of spices
and coffees and teas, and their prod
ucts were the vilest combinations Of
drugs and other materials. These
goods were disposed Of to dishonest
grocers, but the chief way OF selling
them was through travelling agents.

and direct by mail. Not many months
ago the pure food department of a
western state secured a shipment Of
more than a dozen different articles
of food from concern that sold its
products direct to the consumer
Analysis Of all the articles proved
each and every one adulterated. Bak-
ing powder was composed Of cheap
-four, starch, tartaric acid and alum;
what was labeled pure spices con-
sisted of ground bark and highly
concentrated flavoring substance. So
1t was with all the goods Since the
pure food laws have been in effect.
many of these concerns have quit
business.

hunt news and clean the rollers and set
type, sweep the floor and pen short items
and fold papers, and write wrappers and
make the paste, and mail the papers and
talk to visitors, and distribute type, and
carry water, and saw wood, and read
proofs, hunt the shears to write editor
ials, and dodge the bills, and dun delin-
unents, and take cus5ings from the
whole force and tell our subscribers
that we must have money-we say that
we've no business to make mistakes
while attending to those little matters
and getting our living on hopper tail

tells us our paper amt worth dollar

WEAVER KILLED BY
DYNAMITE CHARGE
THE MAN AT MOUNTAIN VALLEY.
NEAR OAkMAN, WAS CELEBRAT-
ING ELECTION RESULT WITH AN
ANVIL AND DYNAMITE.

Word was received from Oakman last
night that a Mr.. Weaver was accidental
ly killed at Mountain Valley, a little
place about mile and a half from Oak
man, Walker county, late yesterday after
noon while celebrating the election of
one of the Walker county officials.
Details of the accident are meager but
it seems from the information received
that Weaver and some friends were cele-
brating the election of one of the candi-
dates In Tuesdays election. It is I'M
derstood that the men were shooting
some dynamite under an anvil
1t seems that Weaver was 10 set off
the dynamite and that he lit the fuse,
which, being too short, exploded tho
dynamite sooner than he expected, and
not having time to get away he was
killed.
1t is understood that Weaver's BODY
was literally blown to pieces From all
that could be learned he was standing
very close to the explosive when it went
off and was killed almost instantly.

SULLIVAN DIES
FROM INJURIES


w. b. Sullivan, the young man who
was shot last Saturday night, died yes
terday morning at ST. vincent's hospital.
The remains were removed to the UNDER
taking establishment of Shaw & Son.
where they are being held awaiting the
arrival of relatives from Texas, the young
mans home. A telegram received from
his father, c. II. Sullivan, from Fort
WORTH Tex. advised that he would send
for the remains.
Sullivan had lost one leg and used q
crutch. About II O'Clock Saturday night
an argument arose between him and two
men at the corner of Twenty-fourth street
and Alley A, the affair finally ending in
one of these men pulling pistol and fir
ing at Sullivan.
The bullet struck Sullivan's crutch,
passed through it and then entered his
left side between the ribs and hip. He
mediately, but the physicians held out no
hopes of his recovery.
One man was arrested as the man who
did the killing, but the officers were we'll
assured that he was not the guilty one.
Sullivan while waiting for the ambulance
pointed him out as the man, but he
was barely conscious at the time, and
testimony of several disinterested wit
nesses relieved this man of the blame.
The other man broke into run i'm
mediately after the shooting, but left be-
hind his hat, which was found lying on
the ground near the pistol with which
Sullivan was shot This pistol is said to
have belonged to the man who ran.
Both the police and sheriff's depart
ments have been in search of this man
ever since the shooting but SO far have
failed to find any trace of him.
