Catarrh can never be cured by taxi
ing medicines into the stomach nor by
sprays, atomizers or douches. Intell-
igent physicians have long ago dis
csrded such ideas and not one of them
would be worth consideration were it
not for the fact that unscrupulous per-
sons prey upon the ignorance of the
people in regard to new discoveries.
Catarrh is caused by germs and just
as long as these g.rms thrive in the
folds, crevices, L.>ks and corners of

will You, have catarrh. There is only
one way to cure catarrb, and that il

remedy that VIII kill the germs when
il gets where the germs are, and that
is Hyomei. Hyomei is made chiefly
from Australian Eucalyptol combined

The irrigation question like that of
the deep waterways. Is fortunately not
one of party. Every discerning person

ditions of the west knows full we'll
that so fertile naturally is the soil
that it only needs the application of
water to make immense tracts Of
land remarkably productive and cap

the project that it is generally felt
that to secure best results federal as

expenditures is most desirable lis true,
Int 1t would be poor economy to stop
or curtail work on projects which if
carried out would not only benefit par

badly happen if federal aid is with

Few prouder boys could be found

who were recently used by detectives
in Omaha, to assist in the arrest of
some train robbers. One of the Toys

rubbish in vacant lot, and found an
automatic pistol at the end OF it. He
discovered burglars tools also, and
told the police. The police concluded
that the robbers would come back to
the rubbish pile to get their property.

The artificial divorce between pri-
vate and public character, 80 common
years ago, is now rare. People now
regard the character of a public
official as one. That is as a private
citizen and as an Office holder he is
the same man under different circum-
stances. Under the old idea many men
of unsound private life were chosen to
office if they possessed ability. Now
it is generally recognized that no man
is to be entrusted with public Office
unless his private life is clean.

could have been realized by.Mr. Harri-

turn his back on Wall street and stick
CLOSE to the soil. But evidently it was
but a sentimental wish, not meant to
be taken seriously. and that is the
case with many expressed preferences

Two men of national fame have
Just died. One devoted his life to the
accumulation of wealth, the other to
the service of his fellow men. At the
bedside of one the nation watched
with anxiety and also with admiration
for the brave struggle he made for
life. At the bedside of the other the
nation watched with equal anxiety
and admiration, and also with an
affection that was lacking with the
first. The reason for the difference
is obvious to all. That Hartman in
some ways benefited his fellow men
all will admit. but his prime purpose
was to serve himself. Governor John
son consecrated his life to his fellows.
How fully that was recognized is
seen in the three-fold election to the
highest office in state in which the
majority of the people belong to a
party opposed to the one in which he
was the most distinguished leader.
Governor johnson belonged to that
sturdy, virile, Scandinavian stock
whose industry, pluck. intelligence.
perseverance, and sterling moral
qualities have done so much to build
up this country along material and
moral lines. In the indomitable
superiority to circumstances be con-
stantiy showed. and in his robust
character and marked ability he was
a conspicuous example of the radical
truth we have stated. The country is
the poorer by reason of his death and |
all parties and all CLASSES recognize
the good he has done, revere his men,
ory and sincerely sympathize with
his family in their great sorrow.
