DICK MILITARY LAW
IS IN EFFECT
State Militia Becomes National
Guard In Fact, Subject to Presi-
dents Orders.

In these days Of rumors of war
the fact that the famous Dick law"
which nationallzes, so to speak, the
militia organizations of the various
states by placing them on the same
footing as the regular army and
making them a national military or
ganizatlon subsidiary to the regular
army is, In case of war, now In ef-
feet
The law provides that the militia
shall consist of every able-bodied
male citizen of the respective states
and territories apd the District Of
Columbia, and every able-bodied
male OF foreign birth who has de-
clared his intention OF becoming a
citizen, who Is more than 18 and
less than 45 years Of age, and shall
be divided into two classes: The or
ganiZed militia and the reserve mill
TIA. Ihe regularly enlisted, organ
ICED and uniformed militia in the
several states and territories and the
District of Columbia who have here
tofore participated or shall here
after participate in the apportion-
ment of the annual appropriation,
shall constitute the organized militia
and shall, from now on, have the
same organization, armament and
discipline as that which is now or
may hereafter be prescribed for the
regular army of the United States,
subject in time of peace to such gen
eral exceptions as may be authorized
by the secretary of war.

A Common Cold.

We claim that II catching cold
could be avoided some OF the most
dangerous and fatal diseases would
never be heard of. A cold often forms
culture bed for germs Of infectious
diseases. Consumption, pneumonia,
diphtheria and scarlet fever, four OF
the most dangerous and fatal dis
eases, are OF this class. The culture
bed formed by the cold favors the de-
velopment OF the germs Of these dis
eases, that would not otherwise find
lodgment. There Is little danger,
however, OF any of these diseases be-
ing contracted when a good eXpector-
ant cough medicine like Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy is used. 1t
cleans out these culture beds that
favor the development Of the germs
of these diseases. That Is why this
remedy has proved so universally
successful in preventing pneumonia.
It not only cures your cold quickly,
but minimizes the risk of contracting
these dangerous diseases. For sale

posal that the federal government
undertake to lease the water power
rights, with provisions to regulate
the price to the consumer and with
a reservation that the amount OF
payment to the federal government
shall be subject to readjustment at
stated periods.
This situation is all the more serl-
Gus for the conservation program, be-
cause it is regarded as a logical con-
clusion Of the position which Sena-
tor Nelson took in the James River

dreamed a dream the other night
When all around was still;
/ thought / saw this quiet vale
Amid Its pine-clad hills.
Rogue River rushed on toward the
west
Its waters wild to pour
Upon the broad Pacific's breast,
But close beside the shore
The grass was green, the flowers in
bloom,
The birds poured forth their lay,
While all around was peace and Joy;
Ny heart was blithe and gay.
The orchards sweet with early bloom,
The vineyards growing green,
The mountains with their snowy
crests,
And, gazing on this scene,
| thought, o, what could be more
sweet,
More beauteons to the sight,
Than thou, o fair Rogue River vale,
In visions Of the night?
o, who could dwell in such cline,
Mid Natures beauties rare,
And keep the sunshine from his
heart,
Nor love these scenes so fair!
Though far away from thee / roam,
Or ocean lies between,
My home and thee, still sweet to me
Will be fair Josephine.

WATER POWER
OWNED BY STATES

A special from Washington says
that the federal conservation of
water power has been struck a
sledge-hammer blow by a brief pre-
pared for the public lands committee
of the Senate, under the direction of
Senator Nelson, Of Minnesota. The
brief holds that the control of water
for purposes other than navigation,
rests with the states rather than with
the national government.
This doctrine is regarded as con-
stituting bar to the water power
bill which was drawn by Secretary
Ballinger and introduced into the
senate by Senator Nelson, with the
administration approval. Accept

HYDROPHOBIA.

Few accidents are more terrifying
to the sufferer than to be bitten by a
dog supposed to be mad, and there
are few conditions in which prompt
and intelligent action on the part of
the bystanders is more desirable.
Although nearly all warm-blooded
animals are susceptible to rabies, it is
most commonly seen in dogs. There
are two forms. the furious" and the
dumb. In the furious type, after
period of melancholy or depression,
the animal becomes restless and ir-
ritable, with tendency to run away
and snap at everything in sight, fn-
ally becoming subdued and sullen,
and dying of paralysis and exhaustion.
In dumb rabies the stage of irritable
lty IS absent. The dog prowlS about
in listless way with his head down
and his lower jaw dropped. At the
same time there is difficulty in swal-
lowing.
1t is often impossible to tell from
a dogs actions whether it is rabid or
not; but if instead of killing the ami
NAL as quickly as possible, as is often
unwisely done, the owner capture It
and keep it for few days under lock
and key, the question answers itself.
A rabid dog always dies in from four
to eight days, so that if the animal
RECEIVERS the bitten persons may be
sure that they are not going to de-
velop hydrophobia.
In any suspicious case the wound
should Immediately be squeezed under
hot water, and ifdeep be incised free
" so that cauterization with either
hot iron or with strong nitric acid
mot with lunar caustic), may be tho
roughly done. At the same time the
dog should be kept under observation,
or ifalreadv killed, the head and neck
should be packed in ice and preserved
for medical examination.
Even if it seems certain that the
animal was rabid the patient should
not despair. for it is estimated that
only fifteen per cent. of those bitten
by a rabid animal actually develop
the disease, and if the Pasteur pre-
ventive NEGOTIATIONS are promptly be-
gun, recovery is almost certain.
The popular dread of rabies is out
of all proportions to the relative fire.
quency of the disease, and the length
to which it may go is shown by the
instances in which people have de-
veloped, and even died, of false hy-
drophobia, nervous condition due to
fright, and stimulating to some ex-
tent the real malady.-Youth's Com
panion.
