CATARRH WILL GO.
Relief Comes i'm Two Minutes, Com
plete Cure i'm Few Weeks.

Don't go on hawking yourself sick
every morning; it's cruel, It's harm
full and it's unnecessary.
If after breathing Hyomei, the
wonder-worker, your are not rid Of
vile catarrh, you can have your
money back.
No stomach dosing-just take the
little hard rubber pocket inhaler that
comes with each outfit, and pour into
1t few drops Of Hyomei. Breathe 1t
according to directions. In two min
utes it will relieve you of that stuffed
up feeling. Use it a few minutes
every day, and in a few weeks you
will be entirely free from catarrh.
Breathing Hyomei is very pleas
ant and certain way to kill catarrh.
Get an outfit today 1T only costs
$1.00; it's worth $1,000 to any ca
tarrh sufferer For sale by druggists
everywhere and by C. II. Demaray,
who guarantees it to cure catarrh,
Group, coughs, colds, sore throat and
bronchitis. An extra bottle of Hy-
omei liquid if needed, costs but soc
as the little hard rubber INHALER you

craving and Printing, and later to a
committee consisting of c. S. Pearce,
of the Division of Loans, G.. K Leet,
his private secretary, and Brandon
Smith, the department chemist.
The committee found that about
so per cent of the paper money now
destroyed can be saved by washing
and put back into circulation after
it is cleansed and dried. Only sill
yer certificates can be washed be-
cause the ink in yellowbacks and ma
tional bank notes will not permit of
such an operation.
The laundry machines will cost be-
tween $500 and $1,000 each and the
government may save through their
use about $11,000,000 a year. One
machine will be installed at each sub
treasury.
1t Is unfortunate that national
bank notes and all other forms of
paper money issued by the govern
ment can not be washed. Contagious
diseases of every sort could be car
ried by these bills and it is quite
necessary that they be sent to the
laundry at stated intervals, the same
as shirts and other clothing. A kind
of ink should be found to print paper
money of all kinds so that they will
stand washing. There is no other
article in general use which carries
with it as much filth as our bank
notes, and this idea of sending them
to the laundry is an advanced step
in the interest of health and general
cleanliness.

IDEAS ABOUT THE RAINBOW
Queer Notions Held by People OF
Different Countries Regard
ing the Bow.

In many countries the rainbow is
spoken of as being a great bent pump
or siphon tube. drawing water from
the earth by mechanical means. In
parts of Russia, in the Don country,
and also in Moscow and vicinity, 1t
is known by a name which is equiva-
lent to the bent water-pipe." In
nearly all Slavonie dialects it is
known by terms signifying the cloud
siphon," and in Hungary it is the
pump" "Noah's pump and Gods
pump" The Malayan natives call it
by the same name that they do their
manded water cobra, only that they
add "boba" (meaning double-headed) J.,
the equivalent in our language being
the double-headed water-snake.'
They tell you that the bow is a real
thing of life. that it drinks with its
two mouths, and that the water is
transferred to the clouds through an
opening in the upper side of the cen
ire of the great arch. In the province
of Charkav, Russia, the rainbow Is
said to drain the wells, and to prevent
this many are provided with heavy,
tight-ftting stone platforms.

HOPE FOR NARCOTIC VICTIMS
Actual Thirst or Craving for Alcohol
Is Not NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Sc
lectiVe Action.

The causes and effects of alcoholism
form a vast subject about which much
truth and many f|alsehoods have been
written. The falsehoods have done
more tina ma passing harm. for they
have caused in the minds Of the igno-
rant a disbelief in the truth, and the
strict truth displays n terrible pic
ture, writes Alexander Lambert, NJ.
d, in Success Magazine. The use of
alcohol is the most COMMON and wide
spread Of all the narcotics, and nn-
like morphine and cocaine it may be
INDUCED in modestly without eve be-
ing taken to excess; but, also, unlike
morphine and cocaine, when used
eyen In moderation. 1t may cause
%pathologic changes in the body, and
when taken in excess invariably pro-
duees degeneratiye changes in the va
rious v~iseera.
Alcohol has a curious selective ac-
ton, and as individuals reach differ.
emily to equal doses, so, too, do indi-
viduals show different patholicic
changes from equal indulgence. The
brain and central nervous system, or
the heart and arteries, or the liver and
kidneys, may each separately bear the
brunt of the alcoholic poison. Thus
the brain n nervous system may en-
tirely escape the poison, and the in
diyidual die of eardic or other visceral
degenerations; or the brain and nery-
GUS system may become early degene-
rated and the yiscera escape, and the
chronic alcoholic live long years, a
nuisance and a curse to his commu-
nifty. Unfortunately. when alcoholic
excuses are committed in the youth
full, formative period of life. the brain
and nervous system are the more
prone to be affected. The man who
INDUCES in alcoholic excuses is like
a man who reeklessly signs drafts
which he never expects to be cashed
in, but when overtaken with acute dis
ease or accident these drafts are
cashed in with pitiless insistence. The
effects of alcohol do not always re-
main confined to the generation which
commits the over-indulgence, since
fdiocy, epilepsy, moral %degeneracy
and weakness, unstable mentality are
more often found in the children of
alcoholic parents than in those of
n~on-alcoholic ~parentage. The actual
thirst or craving Is not inherited, but
the weaker moral character which is
%bequeathed easily gives way to any
temptation and quickly forms habits
of excessive indulgence.

majority In both houses of tho legis-
lature which refused to carry out the
Republican governors recommends
lions; and although it was only a
minority of the Republican members
which brought about this refusal. the
party cannot escape a measure of re
sponsibility for the failure, but IL Is
only Just to remember that a clear
majority of the Republican members
of each house supported the bill,
whereas three-fourths or over of the
Democrats opposed 1t. This Is n
of the cases where it Is easier to ap-
portion individual than party RESPONSE
bility.
Those who believe that by their
action they have definitely checked
the movement for direct popular prt
marles are, in my judgment, mistaken.
In It's essence. this Is a movement to
make the government more demo
cratic, more responsive to the wishes
and needs of the people as a whole.
With our political machinery 1t is es-
sential to have an efficient party, but
the machinery ought to be suited to
democratic and not oligarchic customs
and habits. The question whether in
a s%esfgoverning republic we shall
have self governing parties Is larger
than the particular bill. We hold that
the right of popular selfgovernment is
incomplete unless it includes the right
AI tho Nntnr-G nnf DInrp1V tn nhnnGa he
tween candidates when they have
been nominated, but also the right to
determine who these candidates shall
be. Under our system of party gov
eminent, therefore, the voters should
be guaranteed the right to determine
within the ranks of their respective
organizations who the candidates of
the parties will be, no less than the
right to choose between the cand
dates when the candidates are pre-
scented them. There is no desire to
break down the responsibility OF
party organization under duly consti-
tuted party leadership. but there is a
desire to make this responsibility real
and to give the members of the party
the right to say whom they desire to
execute this leadership. In New York
state no small part of the strength Of
the movement has come from the pop
ular conviction that many of the men
most prominent in party leadership
tend at times to forget than In a
democracy the function of a political
leader must normally be to lead, not
to drive. We, the men who compose
the great bulk of the community, wish
to govern ourselves. We welcome
leadership. but We wish our leaders
to understand hat they derive their
strength from us, and that, although
we look to them for guidance, we g
pect this guidance to be In accord
ance with our interests and our

that many honest and sincere men

we'll aware, as of course all thinking

where there was least liability to Sc

ring the task of dealing with those big
communities where the difficulties and
dangers to be overcome would be
greatest. Moreover, while guarantee
ing full liberty of individual action, It
also provided for the easy mainte-
Nance Of party organization. and
thereby avoided some very real dan
gers-among them that of encourag-
ing the use of masses of the minority
party in any given district to dictate
the actions of the majority party. In
other words, the proposed bill, while
1t marked a very real step in advance,
was tentatively and cautiously fran

guards against abuses. If in practice

NATIONS LARGE DRINK BILL
Decrease in Amount of Alcohol Con.
sumed in United States Shown
by Estimate.

That the people of America are be.
ginning to grow more sober in their
habits again is the apparent lesson of
the American Grocer's estimate of the
nations drink bill for 1909.
In spite of ten years of prohibition
agitation 1907 was the banner year
for the liquor trade. CONSUMPTION
reached then its maximum. In two
years the population increased by
2,749, 966, but the money spent upon
alcoholic drinks fell off $110,1S5. 500.
This was not an economic after effect
of the panic; hat would have been
more apparent in 1908; besides, tea,
coffee and cocoa established in 1909 a
record.
The per capita use of spirits in 1909
was the smallest since 1900; of beer
since 1905. OF both there was a de.
cline in 1908 and again in 1909. The
consumption of wine alone increased,
but by a trife.
The treasury in 1909 derived from
spirits 500, S6S,Sl7; from fermented
liquors, $75,550. 754; from imported al
coholics, $15,650, 113, and from tobac.
co, $751; 55, 0S4. The average tax per
capita from all these sources was
$2.93.
Taking the estimated retail price of
alcoholics and adding coffee. tea and
cocoa, the 1909 drink bill of the ma
fion was.
