Millions of
Lives Lost
An Awful Toll Collected by
Consumption. Many I'm d.
necessary Deaths from
This Disease.

If people could only understand that
systematic catarrh is an internal dis
ease that external applications cannot
cure. they would not need to be warned
so often about this malady, which when
neglected. paves the way oftimes for
consumption. at the cost of millions of
lives every year. Yet catarrh NAV he
cured. if the right treatment is en-
ployed.
Catarrh is caused by a general dis
eased state of the system which leads
commonly TO annoying and perhaps ser
ious local conditions, which NAV prove
a fertile breeding ground for germs of
consumption. External remedies give
but temporary ease
The only way to successfully treat
catarrh is by employing a medicine
which is absorbed and carried bv tho
blood to all parts of the system. so
that the mucous membrane or internal
lining of the body is toned up and made
capable of resisting the infection of
consumption and other diseases.
We have remedy prepared from the
prescription of physician who for
thirty years studied and made cstarrb
q speciality, and whose record Ivae q
patient restored TO health in every ase
where his treatment was followed &C
prescribed. That remedy is Rexall

ii will completely overcome catarrh in
all its various forms, whether acnta or
chronic that we promise to rat,,rn
every penny paid US for the medicine
in every case where il fails or for anv
reason does not satisfy the user

Especial Dapoich 10 The Call

OAKLAND, June Isl III. Dock

city of Oakland in water litigation.
gave his valuation of the Oakland di-
vision of the Peoples wafer company
TO the city council tonight. His ap-
prafsal, based on the Dornin valuation
of January 1, 1904, and Increased by
valuations of properties added since
that date up to January 1, 1910. incIud-
ing improvements, real estate and out
side lands purchased by the water com
pany to be used in reinforcing the pres
ent water supply, reaches a grand total
or Se.S2l 900. The water company's
valuation of the same properties was
$1S.307,570.
Al the outset of his report to the
counc1l Doekweiler stated that he had
not been allowed to inspect the min
utes OF the water company, in accord
ance with the corporations offer to the
city council when the Investigation
was begun. He explained the refusal
on the ground that they probably ex-
pected law suit with the city over the
nXlng or next years water rates BY
the advice of the city attorney he de-
clined to place a valuation on the total
holdings of the water company at the
present time
Dockweiler declared that the Oak
land division, which Is one of FIVE
water supply systems owned by the
Peoples water company, furnishes sew
enty per cent of the company's entire
revenue. The income of the Oakland
division in 1909 he estimated at 1895.
1858. OF this amount ss37,9s3 was
estimated TO have been received from
the sale of water.
During the same year, he said. the
company spent $12,674.01 for service
construction, and that the total cost of
operating the plant was s2sO,s5O. In
lSOS the company Also paid taxes
amounting to s146.12S which covered
their assessment for period of four
years The grand total of their ex-
penses for 1909, including the payment
OF the four years taxes he placed at
s4S6.966.S4. The expense account filed
by the company gives the same total
In accordance with a supreme court
ruling, he made allowance for an an
nual depreciation of $94.1s9.62. He de-
clared that the company had charged
the city for renewals of old lines and
wornout service appliances which
should have been deducted from the re-
newal allowance.
On the outside lands purchased by
the company to be used in reinforcing
the present water supply he placed a
valuation OF si,I66.000. as against the
company's valuation of $3.5TS.s71
The only fault which Dockweiler
found with the administration of the
company's affairs. in response to a
query from Councilman Stiefvater. was
the payment OF $4,000 annually to its
directors, which he considered exorbi-
tant, and the low valuation which il
placed upon its bonds, A committee

Ihey have witnessed with pleasure
Ine honor done to Mr.. Roosevelt in
EUROPE. Twice within two genera
tions have they now seen the like
IN the case of two of their former
presidents. General Grant had not
only been president twice, like Mr.
Roosevelt, but had one of the great
M n3fiils,afy L,y careers of the world back
OF him. No doubt some of the ex-
1raordinary curiosity displayed in
Europe to see him and do him honor
arose from this latter fact But
the chief reason was the same as in
the case of Mr.. Roosevelt. namely.
that, having been twice president
OF the United States, and become
