Doos Superior TO Men.

Dogs are property. Men are merely
human beings, and as compared with
the rights of property in dogs the
rights of human beings go for the
most part by the board The owners
of dog property may be and usually
are outnumbered four or forty TO one
in any weil-settled community, but the
minority's dog property may make
night bideous for the majority and ap-
parently the majority is helpless,
without redress. Such are the safe
guards which the law throws around
property in dogs that it is more diff
cult TO prove that the dogs Of any
given owner Of dog property are pesti-
lential disturbers of the peace than II
IS TO prove a human being guilty OF
murder. Those who have tried this
have found it to be SO.

DEATH, THE GREAT LEvELER.
In the Republic of the Grave There Is
No Rank or Standing Or
Preroaatlve.

In the democracy Of the dead. all
men at last are equal. There is Meth
er rank nor standing nor preroga-
tive IN the republic OF the grave. AT
this fatal threshold the philosopher
ceases to be wise. and the song of the
poet is silent. Dives relinQuishes his
millions and Lazarus his rags. The
poor man Is as rich as the richest. and
the rich man is as poor as the pauper.
The creditor loses his usury and the
debtor is acquitted of his obligation.
There the proud man surrenders his
dignities, the politician his honors. the
wording his pleasures; the Invalid

rests from unrequited toll.

LOVE OF MONEY AND POWER.
Two Traits That Are Distinctly Amer
/ lean, But Lacking Wisdom, They
Are as Nothing.

II would hardly be thought neces-
sary for anyone now to advise young
men about to leave college to honor
money, honor money-getting and
honor power" yet such was the strong
est note of baccalaureate orator at
Dartmouth. II there is anything on
earth or under the earth that on-com-
ing Americans do not need to have
urged upon them, IT is love OF money
and love OF power.
sThis may be said without indorsing
in any respect the malicious. and.
for the greater part, insincere at
tacks upon wealth SO often made by
demagogues and hypocrites. The pas
sion for money and the obsession Of
money-getting have become altogeth-
er too conspicuous as American traits.
They bring little content to those who
are thus afflicted, and they awaken re-
sentiment in the breasts of millions.
In spite of new teachings and prac-
tees, knowledge still is power. Sup
plemented by wealth. knowledge be-
comes power triumphant Without
wisdom the power of money is law
less and destructive-a curse to its
possessor and an evil example to the
world.

PROPER CARE or THE TEETH.
Simple Methods by Which Their Pres

LOGICAL ECZEMA CURE
ENDORSED BY PHYSICIANS

After treating eczema for years as
a practically incurable blood disease,
the medical world Is greatly inter-
ested in the discovery that it is not
blood disease at ALL but is due To n
parasite in the skin itself This
parasite is easily destroyed by the ex-
ternal application of a compound of
oil of wintergreen, thymol, glycerine,
etc. This viii quickly kill all eczema
germs, while soothing and refreshing
the skin.

tells of the success in treating patti
ents.

from eczema for the last fourteen
years. and I applied the ID. ID. d.
treatment l also applied it to n man

suffering with rheumatism for four

No matter how terribly you suffer
