l lengthy address on the subject of Min ing and the Conservation of Minerals said in part: Until a few years ago
 the reduction of refractory ores was in the hands of various smelting interests so competing as to keep the charges on a fairly satisfactory basis. but the possibilities were too great to be neg lected. The sO-called "smelter trust, the American Smelling and Refining company. has since been organized and successfully operated. During the three years ending April 30th. 1908. it made a net profit of S2s.3O4.324. upon a cap italization of S1.OOO.OOO two thirds of which was water. l want to point out that the Standard oil company through its most powerful agency. the Ameri- can Smelling and Refining company today controls seventy-five per cent of the best brains in the metallurgical world, seventy-five per cent of the fla cilities for ore smelling and through its mines already owned. seventy-five per .cent of the future gold, silver and cop per output of the United States. What do you believe will result when the Standard oil extends to those metals Lllt IlltlIlbuE tAtEtlStu oAtI DLbuuNLS for which there are substitutes 9"
 The speaker criticized the federal government for it's failure to assist in the protection of the mining industry land urged the importance of a national bureau of mines.
 Dr. George c. Pardee, of California. former governor of the state, and past president of congress and a member of the national conservation commission Appointed by President Roosevelt as an outcome of the memorable confer ence of governors at the White House. conveyed to the congress the assurance that the president is doing all in his power to advance their work. He said: Within the next twenty-five or thirty five years the forests of the west will have absolutely disappeared at the present rate of dissipation. The min eral wealth of this region has been squandered to a great extent. The rivers are allowed to fill with snag and sand bars. Lands formerly fat and fruitful are now being exhausted by unscientific farming or are being washed away to obstruct our harbOrs. We recognize the great work done and we look to the future with a certainty that our efforts shall yield results

LAKES TO GULF MEETING.

Chicago. Oct. With William H. Taft as the principal speaker, the Lakes to- Gulf Deep Waterways con vention got under way today and completed the first session with great prOmptitude and success. Judge Taft entered on the heels of Governor De- neen of Illinois, amid the music of many instruments and the cheering of the delegates and visitors, each one of whom waved a small American flag till the whole auditorium became a sea of red, white and blue. The convention was called to order promptly at 10 o'clock by President William Kavanaugh of St. Louis.
 The body of the Auditorium theater was not quite filled, but as many more delegates and visitors, distin- guishable by their badges, filled the lobbies of nearby hotels. As the rou- tine business of the meeting proceed ed, including the address of the pres ident, the report of Secretary Saun- ders, and the appointment of commit tees proceeded, however. the vacant seats became filled. It was a large audience that greeted the republican standard bearer
 Governor Deneen, hoarse from pre- vious efforts in speech making, in in troducing MT. Taft, referred to Hi nois' great interest in a deep water

 "The United States have a larger haul to the seaboard than any other country for foreign trade" said Judge Taft. We must overcome the dis advantage of the large haul. by the lesser freight rate, for which we must look to the waterways all the year around"
 This and many other statements made by the speaker provoked ap- plause. At the conclusion of his speech, Judge Taft went direct to his special train at the union station, for the run to Galesburg, where he was scheduled to deliver the principal ad- dress at the Lincoln Douglas cele- bration during the afternoon.

Bad Breath and
 Sour Stomach
Stopped at Once With Pure Willow Charcoal, the Greatest Gas
 Absprber Known,

There is no necessity to suffer the humiliation, chagrin and discomfort of bad breath. biliousness. sour stom- ach, gastritis. sluggish liver, etc, when a little lozenge of charcoal will cleanse the stomach and make it pure and sweet.
 Do not drug yourself when a sim pie little natural charcoal made from fragrant willow branches. sweetened with honey, will add tone to your stomach, liver and intestines, rapidly absorb gases and stop foul odors of all kinds.
 Charcoal will absorb one hundred times it's own volume in gas A box full of charcoal placed in a bed room will keep the air of such a room pure and sweet.
 A little charcoal lozenge dissolved on the tongue after meals will also keep the stomach fresh and clean. Charcoal is justly called the scrub ping brush for the stomach. The old monks of medieval times cured bad cases of stomach trouble. cast out devils from the system of man by feeding such a man charcoal
 Scientific men of today believe in the great strength of charcoal for the cure of human ills. Too much of it cannot harm one. The system craves it just like an animal needs and craves salt every so often. Char coal goes into the stomach gently and is welcome. it settles down through the action of the stomach, and filters through all the food, ab- sorbing gas. aiding digestion and giving tone to the juices, so that when the food goes into the intes- tines, and there meets other diges- impurities and thus keeps them from the blood.
 Stuarts Charcoal Lozenges are made from pure willow. They are prepared fragrant by the use of hon ey and sweetened so they please the taste and are easily dissolved.
 They have an enormous sale, thus stamping them with the approval of the public. Every druggist sells them, 25 cents per box. Go to your druggist today and buy a box; then after your next meal take two or three of them and judge for your self of their merit.
 Several taken at bedtime will prove to you in the morning that they have been at work all night, for your bad breath will not be so bad after all.

 General Demand

of the Well-Informed of the World has always been for a simple, pleasant and efficient liquid laxative remedy of known value; laxative which physicians could sanction for family use because it's com ponent parts are known to them to be wholesome and truly beneficial in effect, acceptable to the system and gentle, yet prompt, in action.
 In supplying that demand with it's ex- cellent combination of Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna, the California Fig Syrup Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relies on the merits of the laxative for its remark able success.
 That is one of many reasons why Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna is given the preference by the Well-Informed. To get its beneficial effects always buy the genuine-manufactured by the Cali fornia Fig Syrup Co.,, only, and for sale by all leading druggists. Price fifty cents per bottle.

SPOOL FACTORIES
FACING PROBLEM
Grade of Wood Required Hard to
Obtain, and Industry Is
Hanipered
Makers in Maine, Who Turn
Out 100000, ,OOO.a Year, Find
Material Dwindling

WASHINGTON, Feb. n.-One of the
industries which deals with small
things, yet which is one of the utmost
Importance to the cuuntry's commerce,
is the manufacture of spools, and like
all other work in wood it faces the
problem of supply and quality. This
business is centered in Maine. Spool
factories of this state are now turning
out 500 000, 900 spools annually, with a
market value of nearly s1,000.000.
The best quality of timber is used
for the manufacture of spools. White
birch, which is used almost exclusively,
reaches the factories in the form of
bars from X to 2 9-16 inches square
and from two and a half to four feet
long. These bars must be absolutely
clear, specification which is hamper
ing the makers. The birch is cut in
winter and sawed in small portable
mills which operate near; some railroad
line, about two and a. third cords being
required for 1000 feet of bars. The
spool bar mills in Maine turn out about
$4,000, 900 feet of bars during the year
and approximately the same quantity
of material is manufactured into spools
in the state.
The machines for making. spools are
complicated and require skilled men for
their operation. The spoelsi drop from
the lathe at the rate of one each sec
ond, and must be perfectly uniform and
true The. finished spools are marketed
largely in Rhode Island, Connecticut,
New York and New Jersey. while the
spool bars are exported ito Greendcis
and Glasgow, Scotland, and to Hull and
Fleetwood, Eng. Shipments to these
points are made mostly from Bangor,
as much as S,e00.e00 feet being sent
from that port in afseason.

BRINGS IDOLS THAT
WOMEN DIED TO SEE
Professor Schroeder Returns
From South Seas With
Ghost Temples

Feminine curiosity found its cure
more than once in the ghost house"
the principal adornment of which,
brought from the South sea islands,
were received yesterday at the Ameri
can museum of natural history, says
the New York Herald.
This temple. filled with all manner
of grotesque idols made of wood and
carved with infinite patience and skill,
was built of logs driven into the
ground and had a thatched roof. There
were cracks between the timbers
through which man might look If
he wished. The curious woman who
beheld what was within the forbidden
house of ghosts was knocked down
with a club If she was caught. for in
the South sea islands death is the re-
ward for that kind of curiosity. This
strange house stood in the region re-
mote from a village In one of the
islands Of the Bismarck archipelago.
Ten idols and other furnishings were
obtained by Professor Eugene Schroe-
der The idols are carved from single
logs, and their naturally wooden sex-
PRECISION is relieved by brilliant ochers
of red and yellow. Several of them
closely resemble the totem poles which
are used by the North American In
dians as the signs OF tribes and clans.
Professor Schroeder has also sold to
the museum a collection of 500 speci-
mems showing the industrial status of
the South sea islanders. Among them
are 80 strings of small Shells, known
as diwarra, which in those remote
islands are recognized by all men as
the exact price of a wife. One of the
chiefs made such a proffer to the pro-
fessor when he offered TO marry the
scientists niece, but it was refused.
The strings, however, were later OBJ
