Removes Poison Germs of Ca
tarrh and rheumatism
From the Blood.

For catarrh of the head use a tea
spoonful of salt and a quarter tea
spoonful of borax dissolved in a pint
of warm water. Snuff this mixture
through the nostrils twice daily and
immediate relief is experienced. To
cure, constitutional blood remedy
must be used. Catarrh and rheuma-
tism are both due to accumulated poi
sons in the system. These poisons
ought to be eliminated through the
skin, the bowels and the urinary tract.
The following simple home mixture
warrants the utmost faith as it effec-
tually acts on the kidneys, the bowels
and the skin, causing them to resume
their functions quickly and properly.
You can mix it at home or have any
honest druggist do so. One-half
ounce Of fluid extract Buchu, one
ounce compound fluid Balmwort, and
two ounces syrup Sarsaparilla COM
pound. Mix, and take a teaspoonful
after each meal and one at retiring.
Many cases of catarrh, rheumatism
and kidney trouble have already ben
Gifted by this treatment and this is
the season when nearly every one
needs 1t.

DELIGHT CERTAIN
Congressman Nick LongWorth
Glad He Made Illinois
= Speech.
CLIPPINGS TO PRESIDENT.

Evansville, Ind, Oct. 5.-Congress-
man Nick Longworth, who, with
James S. Sherman, spent a great deal
of his time Sunday reading from the
various newspapers Of the country ref
erences to his speech at Rock Island,
ILL.,, Friday, in which he declared Taft
ought to be elected president for four
years and then reelected for another
four years and at the end of that time
give way to Roosevelt for two more
terms.
Congressman Longworth said he
made the statement in all seriousness
and he was delighted that most of the
papers played up the story on their
first page.
Congressman Longworth cut out all
dispatches on the Rock Island address
he could find and especially those that
had been run on the first page of the
various papers and said he would send
them to Mr.. Roosevelt.
The congressman smiled, and as he
tucked the clippings into his vest
pocket replied:
There is another one for Teddy"
will have a raft of them to send him
and feel certain he will be delighted

FINLEY SCHOOL
PATRONS HAVE KICK
Say Board of Education Does
Not Fulfil Promise.

Many people in the district in which
the Finley school is located, are won
dering why the school board failed to
keep its promise and install lavatories
in the school during the past summer
Mr.. Mott stated that the people should
blame the city, as the board will let
the contract just as soon as the city
starts work on the sewer in the first
alley to the rear of the school.
This is the only building in the city
that does not have the toilet rooms for
the pupils. The people in this part of
the city have for a number of years
petitioned the school board for lava
tories and last spring when the city
was planning to construct sewer in
this section of the city, the school
promised the people that the toilet
rooms would be installed.
Mr.. Mott stated this morning that
just as soon as the city starts work
constructing the sewer. the board will
put the plumbers at work The board
has the specifications completed.

that Mr.. Wilson would be continued in
his present Office under a Taft admins
tration, though it is doubted by many
of his friends whether he would care
to remain in the cabinet more than a
few days after March 4 next. That he
wants to remain at least a few days
he admits himself, and it is assured
that in the event of Taft's election he
would be allowed to do so.
On March 4, Mr.. Wilson will have
been a member of the cabinet in the
same portfolio continuously for twelve
years, surprising all cabinet records
except that of Albert Gallatin as secre-
tary of the treasury. 1t would be ne
cessary for him to remain only short
while into the next administration to
surpass even Galatians record, and
should Taft be elected he would be al
lowed to do SO. Mr.. Wilson's earnest
ness in the cause of Taft. therefore, is
not wholly unselfish, but it is a selfish
ness which no one will hold up against
him.
Fear a Plague.
Administration officials do not at
tempt to conceal their anxiety lest
there be an outbreak of the plague on
the Isthmus of Panama. Already it
has made its appearance at points on
the coast both to the north and the
south of the canal zone, and the donger
that it will show up at Colon is by no
means imaginary.
There can be no doubt that the ap-
pearance of the plague among the
canal workers would result in a great
calamity and it would seriously rotary
if not wholly cripple the progress of
the work. Canal officials think 1t par
ticularly hard, after having eliminated
yellow fever, that great scourage of
tropical America, from the canal zone,
they now should be menaced by the
plague, an European importation. They
admit they are not prepared to bar the
disease from entrance or adequately to
cope with it after it may have gained
an entrance.
Capital Enthusia site.
Despite the fact that permanent res
idents of the District of Columbia do
not enjoy the boon of the elective fran
chise. there probably is no place in the
country where political enthusiasm
runs higher. Just now the capital is
being treated to the spectacle of torch
! light parades and almost nightly meet
ings which are addressed by speakers
of national prominence. In fact, no
other city of equal size in the country
will enjuy such a deluge of oratory as
Washington will have between now
and election. One party seems as anx-
ious as the other to contribute to the
enthusiasm here, though the only pos
sible gain is the votes OF few gov
| eminent clerks who hold legal resi-
dence elsewhere.
