to be Calcium Sulphide.
Stuart's Calcium Waters are prepared

evaporation and chemical change like most
calcium s~ulphide remedies sold today.
Stuart's Calcium Waters also contain
Quassia, Golden Seal and Eucalyptus, all

other ingredients clear the blood from

Talks on Teeth

To protect ourselves against the UNI
%scrupulous dentists who have been steal
ing our name, advertising matter and
fame, we ask you to make note of the
name and address.
1t was to be expected that any change
In the science of dentistry so radical as
that -inaugurated by us would cause a
revolution in the ranks Of the profession.
This method of supplying teeth without
the use of the old fashioned, makeshift,
unreliable, partial plates of the equally
Objectionable painful and insanitary plan
of filling up the gaps with ordinary
bridgework, which was for looks only, and
not for use, was bound to work a revolu-
ton.
People come to our office from all parts
of this country and Canada to have this
new method explained and with the ex-
PLANTATION invariably they had the work
doae while there.
Why not?
There Is no pain, or boring, or any other
discomfort attached TO the work of re-
storing missing teeth with this method,
so it doesn't take much of an argumen TO
cause a man or woman to discard the
makeshifts for a full set OF beautiful
teeth that are as firm In the mouth a.
natures own teeth, and once in place are
in for all time.
Fortunate indeed are you who live In
one of the cities where this company
maintains offices. Relief from teeth
troubles is at your door-and the cost OF
the dental work we do, and that only
can be done ih our offices. is no greater
than you would be asked to pay for worl

NEW TAX FOR CORPORATIONS
Occupation Levy on Street Railway
and Telephones.
AWAITS SUPREME COURT RULING
VIII BE Introduced in Council When
Decision ON Case at Lincoln
is Handed Down as a
Guide.

City Attorney Burnham has prepared an
ordinance providing for al occupation tax
of from 2 to 3 per cent on the street rail-
way company and the telephone companies
Of Omaha.
The Introduction of this ordinance is de-
pendent upon the decision of the supreme
court in a suit brought by the city of
Lincoln to collect an occupation tax from
the Lincoln Traction company.
Attorneys for the Omaha & Council
Bluffs Street Railway company and for the
Nebraska Telephone company of Omaha
appeared as friends OF the court and aS-
sisted the local company In fighting the
case in the supreme court.
City Attorney Burnham has interested
himself in the case to the extent that to
parties in Lincoln he said if the city won
the case he would introduce such an ordi-
nance in the Omaha city council and In
fact had the ordinance already drawn.
In the argument before the supreme court
Judge Stewart, city attorney of Lincoln. in
answer TO the statement by John l.. Web
ster, counsel for the Omaha street railway
company, that his company could not af-
ford to pay the tax, gave an interesting
comparison OF the valuation of the property
owned by the two companies in Omaha
and Lincoln.
Comparison of Values.
The value of the Lincoln Traction com.
pany was placed by the State Railway COM
mission at 81, 10000 and this was based oI
thlrty-six miles of tracks. The Omaha
company, he showed, had los miles of track
and it was stocked and bonded for a valu'
alton Of $26,OCO,OOO in round numbers. IN
this valuation It pays annually a 5 pei
cent dividend on the preferred stock and
1 per cent on the common. In addition il
pays 5 per cent on its outstanding bonds
and $4,000 is set aside annually for de-
probation.
The Omaha company, he said Is only
/ three times as large or as valuable as thu
Lincoln company yet 1t is paying divi
dends on a valuation nearly :wenty-si'
times as large.
The proposed ordinance is simply In
rough draft and we are not as yet certain

GETTING ACQUAINTED.
From the Atlanta Georgian.

We have very little patience with
the gibes and thrusts in which some
of the newspaper humorists are in
dulging at the expense of Governor
elect Joseph NJ Brown.
If he is willing, without taking
either the time or the money of the
state OF Georgia, to travel from town
20 town in order to meet the people
face to face it is a course to the
prOpriety Of which no one has a right
TO demur.
In effect it may be shrewd cam
paigning; but the democratic masses
OF Georgia appreciate the straight
fOrWardness Of the man who at his
own expense and prior to his inaug-
uratiOn as governor seeks an ac-
quaintance with his feIlow-citizens.
He is making friends everywhere be-
cause he is touching elbows with
the people. If this be campaigning
it is campaigning of a kind which is
somewhat new to the state. 1t in
wolves none of the bitter personali-
ties Of the stump. 1t stirs the pop
ulatiOn into no furOre. 1t is genial
and familiar. And one result will
be that the gOvernOr-elect will better
understand the needs of his fellow
citizens; and if incidentally it in
sures his reelection as governor it
cannot be said that this end was
accomplished at the expense Of the
commonwealth.

Mr.. Brown was nominated to this

Many years ago an old log school
house stood near the roadside in the
gap of a certain ridge and virgin
oaks, with gnarled and twisted
branches, which for possibly CEN
turtles had bid defiance to wind and
transforms, cast a grateful shade
over this hallowed edifice. Down be-
low the road in the gorge was the
babbling brook and the stately beech
trees, whose bark had been carved
by the blades of Barlow knives with
uncOuth letters and childish names,
which some son OF the future will
decipher and recall the hands that
wrought them, and remember that
they have returned TO dust, and that
the names on those beeches have
been chiseled upon the surface Of
cold and unrOmantic grave stones.
Although the stretch Of years lie be-
tween that time and this, memory
scans the scene as if it were a page
ant Of yesterday. The recollection
of the old school house and the boys
and girls who daily met there IS as
soft as song and as pure as prayer
The old building has been torn down
and it's logs built into a blacksmith
shop where farmers get their horses

held school children now houses
blazing forge and the cIang Of the
anvil rings beneath the rafters that
once sheltered the youth Of a past
generation
How can we ever forget this old
school. and how we used to punch

the logs so that we might peep from
the narrow sphere upon the pa5serbg,
the birds. the trees. and the great
blue sky that tendeTly draped the
feecy clouds that waited in it's hOrl-
ZOn. Can We forget the times when
we saw the teachers back was

Government statistics show that
If the worlds / ,500,000,000 popula-
tfon about one-third regularly wear
clorhes, about 100000 are partially
cIotbed. and 100000 habitually go
almost naked. To clothe the entire
noDulation of the world would re-
anire 100000 bales of cotton of
500 pounds each. India, Russia,
Brazil and Egypt add only a mite to
rhp worlds supply of cotton, which
is dependent upon our south. From
those former sources there has not
been a large increase in recent years.
Egypt shipped $50, 900 bales, average
weight 1870 pounds, in 1901; 909,-
600 in 1907-S. midas yield went up
from 3,796,000 bales (400 pounds
each) in 1901 to 4,445, 900 last year.

fell from 244,000 bales in 1901 to
$4,000 last year.
Irrigation works on the lower Nile
are expected to reclaim a million
acres of land for cotton, increasing
the crop there to about 100000.
From the whole available cotton
area in upper and lower Egypt the
crop there might be increased to A.
100000 bales. Experiments are
making with cotton growing by
English, German and French in the
wiIdernesses of Africa, but no yield
OF any account is expected for gen
erations.
With the present area of cu1tiva-
ton in the south the United States
is good for 100000 to 100000
or 100000 bales of 500 pounds
each. If the world should all go to
