WASHINGTON, Mar. 16-Although
the republican organization Of the
house took radical measures today to
prevent repetition of yestelt.ay's
defeat at the hands of the democratic

lars even more decisive than that of
yesterday

Speaker Cannon in the matter of pre-
cedence for joint resolution, the
house voted against the speaker, 1913

publicans who have always stood
against the speaker a dozen other re-
republicans, heretofore regular, voted
to turn down the ruling of the chair.

The report of the department of ag-
riculture lust issued indicates that we
have not quite reached the horseless
age, and that at the present rate OF
progress VIII hardly reach it before
the millennium.
The Year Book issued as authentic
government statistics gives the num-
berber of horses in the United States at
23,64S,532 and the number of mules
at 4,24O,399, giving as a total for the
equine population of the United States
27,SSS,931. 1t is a well-known fact
that these figures fall short of giving
the exact number OF horses and mules
in this country This fact is due be-
cause there has not been an effort to
gain sufficiently accurate enumeration
for one to speak with certainty. 1t is
known, however, that there are near
$4,000. 900 horses and mules in the
United States The report shows that
horses are now worth $95.64 each ac-
cording to the most accurate estimates.
These prices are the highest on record
and the great total indicates the i'm
mense value of the horses. 1t is also
shown that the price of horses has IN
creased almost one hundred per cent IN
the last ten years, and each succeeding
year has not only seen an increase in
numbers, but a corresponding increase
in price. Farm horses alone have in
creased in numbers from, 100000 to
20,000,000 since the year 1900, and in
value from $4461 each to S9564 each.
The 10000 farm horses of New York
state are valued at $S1,OOO,0O0, an az
erage amount of STA each Illinois has
more farm horses than any other state
in the union, with a total of 100000
valued at 500 each. Only four other
states have more than 100000 horses
on farms These are Iowa, with 1,419,-
900; Texas. with 1,342,000; Kansas.
with 1,152,000, and Nebraska, with

A face with balanced features and
otherwise attractive is very frequently
rendered unsightly by a mishapen
nose or one exhibiting undue redness
or generally offensive in aspect.
Men and women, even children of
a sensitive nature who possess a con-
spicuously deformed nose become NOR
bidly self-conscious and lead miserable
lives in consequence. In many cases
such deformities are hereditary; in
others they have resulted from acct
dents, but no matter the cause, they
can be and should be corrected, the
sooner the better. There is no excuse
for a child going through life with
grotesque nose, bearing jeers and cri-
ticism, when an operation can restore
its becoming contour. The same is
true for adults.
Plastic surgery has been brought to
such a degree of perfection within the
last few years that it undertakes to
remedy almost any deformity. The
average operation is of a slight and
almost painless nature, healing quick
ly and leaving no scar.
l have seen some really remarkable
casese where broken noses were
Strengthened as nature had made them,
knobs were removed from the bridge
and tip of the nose, a nose leaning to
one side was put back on a normal line
and in each case the transformation
was complete.
OF the utmost Importance is the
choice of a surgeon, a dermato!ogist
whose reputation must be built upon
branch of work. Unless the operation
is performed by a skilled hand, even
greater deformity will result Utmost
dissertation must be exercised before
a final decision is made with regard
to the choice of a surgeon.
I am so frequently called upon to
give advice on this subject that am
giving considerable space to its consid-

Possibly the most remarkable feat
ure of the peculiar points of Fer
Don's medical experts and boodless
surgeons, who are now introducing
their European method and radio
treatment at the State hotel here in
Walla Walla, is the interest aroused
throughout the city and state Of Wash

were given up to die by other doc
tors. When newspaper represent
ative called at the headquarters Of
these expert specialists he found it
crowded with sick people from all
parts of the city and surrounding
towns. Among the many was Mrs.
Neal Mulder, whose home is at Coupe

jar containing a monster tapeworm

No case is accepted by the medical
experts where a cure can not be per-
fected, and the honesty of purpose is
proven by their refusal to accept any
case where it is found they can not
perfect a cure.

Care of the Nose

fhoW many of them have really shapely
moses? When graceful in shape, how
very frequently are they red veiny and
studded with open pores and black
heads?
At the opera recently l used my
glasses on all parts of the house and
came to- the conclusion that a we'll
shapen nose with smooth, white skin
ionly appeared at rare intervals.
Many minor deformities may be cor
rected without resorting to surgery,
the the nasal organ is so plastic that
it may be nodded by the application
of pressure intelligently done.
A thick, spreading nose may be
rendered more shapely by the use of
"a nose clip. Several kinds of clips
are available, but the point to keep in
mind is ito choose one that fits easily
without 4xerting undue pressure, which
would, of course, retard circulation

Final Words in Oil
Case are Spoken

| WASHINGTON, Mar. 16.-Final ar
gument of the famous suit to dissolve
the Standard Oil company of New
Jersey as conspiracy and as a mo-
nopoly in violation of the Sherman
antitrust law, was made today, and
the supreme court took the matter un-
der advisemcnt.
Rules of the court prohibiting spec
tators standing in its presence were
swept aside and members of congress
stood around the wall of the room.
| Not in years have so many persons
been packed into the little chamber.
| 1t fell to Attorney General Wickersham
on the side OF the government and
to John G. Johnson for the defense
| to make the closing remarks. In adj
dition, d. T. Watson, another Stan
dard Oil counsel, addressed the court
earlier in the day.
Mr.. Wickersham tainted his oppo-
nents for desiring to cast the veil of
oblivion over the past" He spoke
of that past as containing a national
scandal which the courts and legisla-
tors were called upon to put down.
He emphasized the position that the
reorganization of 1899 gave the Stan
dard Oil a more solidified organization
than it possessed before, an organiza-
ton that prevented the subsidiary COM
panies from becoming competitors.
Urged to Disregard Cry.
In closing he urged the court not to
be influenced by the cry that this pro-
ceeding was a blow directed at bus
mess, because such a cry had been
made often before and proceed ground

was partly reply to Mr.. Wickessham
Although the wolf may not have come
at first, he told the court, when it did
come it was too late to cry.
He paid his compliments to Frank

the government, on which the decree
of dissolution before the court was
based.

ded him of the contests of the witches

Russia leads all nations in the

behind the United States in the number
of horses. Germany leads the other
ountries of Europe with 4,345, 043.
while Austria Hungary Isl a close sec

SO far as this government report is
concerned, it does not indicate that
the horseless age is approaching; in
fact it proves conclusively that we
are farther from it than ever before in
the history of the world. So far, moth
ing in the way of man-made vehicles
has appeared that can take the place
of the horse The automobile or motor
truck coming nearer than any other
vehicle, but still they cannot do it. The
increase in the per capita value of the
horse shows how they are increasing
in value as we'll as in numbers.
