A FOOLISH OLD IDEA.

It was once thought that a
medicine was all the more bene-
fetal for having a nasty taste and
smell. We now know lhat such
an idea is perfect nonsense.
There is no more reason why
medicine should offend the sem
ses than why food should do so.
Therefore, one of the greatest
chemical victories Of the past
few years is what we may call
the redemption of cod liver oil.
Everybody knows what vile
taste and smell this drug has
in its natural state. No wonder
most people declare they would
rather suffer from disease than
take plain cod liver oil, and the
emulsions are as bad, no matter
what may be alleged to the con-
trary. Now it is one of natare's
laws that a medicine which dis
gusts the nose and the palate,
and also sickens the stoms CHI, can
have no good effect as a rledi-
cine, because the system cries
out to be delivered from it. In
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION
the desired miracle is wrought,
and we have the valuable part Ct
the oil, without the other. This
effective modern remedy is pala-
table as honey and contains all
the curative properties Of pure
Cod Liver Oil, extracted bv
Us from fresh cod livers, COM
bined with the Compound Syrup
of Hypophosphites and the Ex-
tracts of Malt and Wild Cherry.
The palate accepts it as it does
sugar, confectionery or cream.
Taken before meals it goes to tht
very secret stronghold Of diges-
tive disorders, and strengthens
the system against Scrofula,
Throat and Lung Troubles and
all diseases due to impurity Of
TIE blood. Dr.. G.. c. Shannon, Of
Canada, says: Il shall continne

ROOSEVELT SHOULD
COME BACK HOME

PORTLAND, Oregon, December IA
Bitter warfare is to be waged against
predatory wild animals in the Pacific
Northwest by the national forest ser
vice, which has just made an appropri-
alton of $3.50 for hiring professional
hunters for this section of the country.
This amount has been allotted to the
Wallowa, Whitman, Malheur, Fremont,
Umatilla, and Deschutes nati7nal for
ests in Oregon, and the Weaaha and
Wenatchee national forests in Wash
ington.
The object of securing hunters is not
only to protect stock grazing on the
forest reserves under permit, but to
safeguard game animals, such as deer,
elk and mountain sheep, as well as
game birds. Cougar, lynx and other
predatory animals thrive III the national
forests, and are today great menace
to the growth of game herds. Cougar
and lynx are regarded as a greater
menace to game than are hunters, and
elk calves and the young of other ami
mails are the prey of the savage wild
eats.
Eight professional hunters have been
employed on the national forests of the
State at intervals during the past year,
and they have killed a total of 5o4
coyotes, twentyone bears, eight wolves,
twenty-one wildcats and three lynx
Not only has the destruction OF these
animals by the government hunters
been a great saving to the stockmen,
but the farmers living near the national
forests. whose poultry and domestic
stock suffer from the raids OF wild
animals

AUSTRIA BELIEVES
 WAR INEVITABLE
Feels That no Diplomatic Settlement With
 SerYia Will be Lasting.
Especial from United Press.>

Special from United Pressl
 London, Feb. 24.-Messages from Vienna to-day say that yesterday g war council of Emperor Franz Joseph, Archduke Franz Ferdinand and the leading Austrian generals decided that 1t was impossible permanently to satisfy Servia by diplomatic means. Any settlement that may be made now. in the opinion of the conferees, will only delay the ultimate struggle and it is better to have 1t now when conditions are most favorable to Aus tria's speedy victory
 It is this attitude on the part of Austria that makes British diplomats fear that an Austrian-S Servian war is inevitable A Belgrade dispatch says that Servia is refusing passports to men and boys of military age. Rus sian officers on the Austrian frontier have been ordered from St. Petersburg to be ready for hostilities on an hours notice. according to dispatches from the Russian capitol.
 England is still hoping against hope that the Powers will be enabled to avert a war. The only intervention possible seems to be note of warning to ServiA that if a war is protracted and suffer the consequences which would probably be annihilation. If Servia is frightened into submission by this prospect there is some hope of peace.
 There is another hopeful line in the enthusiasm among the European f1n- anciers and there Is doubt whether either nation could secure heavy back ing.

The Stomach
 of the Child
Is the Organ All Parents Should Protect and Keep
 Normal.

The stomach of a child is the organ above all others upon which the future of a child depends. Bodily develop ment is fast in children, and the nour- ishment necessary to meet such devel- opment is the one essential demanded from a parent. Most mothers and fathers, jealously guard a child from the formation of bad habits, yet in this age our children early become the vic- tfms of wrong food, over eating and irregular meals.
 It is most appalling to know the eff feet of stomach troubles among our children.
 Most children who are nervous, ir- ritable and cross, who dream, sleep restlessly, who tire easily and have no desire for child exercise, generally have stomach trouble, indigestion and dyspepsia.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are in- tended to thoroughly digest food and to place the system in shape to ob- tain all the nourishment it needs from such food.
 These tablets mix with the juices of the system, enriching them and giving to the body the ingredients necessary to build up the rapidly forming brain and body of the young.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets should be given to children after each meal and at bed time. They are made from pure vegetable and fruit essences and contain no harmful chemicals what ever. The use of these tablets will give greater vim to a child in its school work or at it's play. They will pro duce appetite and SoOthe nerves, de- stroy abnormal cravings and will aHay the bad effects of sweets and such inn proper foods as most children enjoy and will eat no matter what is done to prevent it.
 It is due the child that his stomach be protected by the parent. and if Stu arts Dyspepsia, Tablets are given after meals, the habits of the child will not tear down the stomach and destroy the digestive juices nearly so rapidly. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are given to each and every degree of life. Any condition of the stomach welcomes them, from the strongest to the weak est. For sale by all druggists. price 30 cents.

CATHOLIC ROADSIDE
 AGAINST RACE SUICIDE
Clergy of Baltimore Put Their Strong Views Before Public in Form of
 Advertisement.

Baltimore. Feb. 24-The following advertisement appeared in the Balti- more papers today:
 :" At the quarterIy conference of the Catholic Clergy Of Baltimore, assem- bled at St Mary'e Seminary, February z3, 1909, the following resolution was presenteni and adopted:
 eve, the Catholtc priests of Bali- more assembled In conference, view with alarm and indignation the att1- tlbde of certain inflrential publications which circulate largely In the homes of onr Catholic people, in regard to the dangerous and immoral practice of limiting families by the arbitrary re- structiOn of childbirth.
 when the daily newspapers begin to spread such tileories, we feel that the time has come for plain speech on our pa1-t, and that 1t is our duty to protect the interests of the people and to prevent them from being inocu- lated with such dangerous doctrines. W0 pledge ourselves to accomplish this end, not only by teaching the truth on these subjects. but also, when necessary by denOuncing such ptibl1cas- stions as dangerous and immoral. (SignedD 70. B.
