Surprising Facts About the Patent
Medicine Business

"The Fourth Estate" has been warn.
ing the publishers about the risk in allow
ing credit to new medicine concerns. 1t
is said that there have been only one or
two Of the thousands of new proprietary
medicine houses have made any consider
able amount OF money that have started
the past twenty years and only very
few more than that have met with even
moderate success. 1t is the general i'm
preston that the business is immensely
profitable while the facts are that there
are larger percentage of failures than in
any other line. The new concerns usual
ly starts with lots of confidence in the
merit Of their goods and advertising but
soon exhaust their capital, leaving dealers
who have stocked their medicines with
unsalable foods on their shelves. 1t is
the experience of many publishers that
have accepted this new business that
they have been compelled to charge off
their bills to profit and loss.
There are many old and reliable medi-
cine houses that continue to do good
or increasing business from year to year
but the new ones are finding it more and
more difficult to become established.

HARD CONTEST IN
 ROCK RIBBED MAINE
REPUBLICANS WILLING TO AD- MT THIS YEAR THAT SiTUA- TON IS SERIOUS

PORTLAND. Maine. June l9.-As the two big state conventions draw near. the democratic on June 15 and the Republican on June 19. Repub- lican leaders admit a keen struggle in this rock-ribbed republican state. The democrats are especially hopeful of carrying the first and second con gessional districts and are working hard to elect their candidates to the .next legislature. which must choose Ia successor to Senator Hale. who has announced his retirement
 At the republican state convention .Gov. Fernald in all probability will be .renominated by exclamation.
 In the first district there is bit tier contest between Col Frederick Hale. of Portland; Asher C. Hinds, parliamentary clerk in congress; Judge Edward C. Reynolds. of South Portland and Richard Webb. of Port land In the caucuses already held AIr. Kinds leads.
 The republican candidates for the United States Senate are former As .sociate Justice ct the Supreme Court Frederick A. Powers and former Gov. William T. Cobb
 It is claimed that Judge Powers activity in opposing Senator Hale caused the latter to announce his re .tirement.
 Before the democratic convention at Augusta there will be two can didates seeking the gubernatorial nomination-O. Gardner. of ROckland, and Frederick w Plaisted, the pres ent mayor of Augusta. No democrat lie candidates for senator have been named. The high cost of living and alleged republican extravagances are urged by democratic leaders as the chief issues of the coming campaign.

TUBERCULOSIS SUNDAY

over 100000 churchgoers. nearly 70. 900 sermons and preachers. and more than 1,25O.OOO pieces of litera- ture. are some of the totals given in preliminary report issued today by the National association for the study and prevention of tuberculosis, oi the results of the first National Tu berculosis Sunday ever held, on April 24th.
 The report states that fully one eighth of the 33.000,O0O listed com municants of the churches of the United States heard the gospel of health on Tuberculosis Sunday. and that the number of people who were reached by notices and sermons printed in the newspapers will az gregate 25.OOO.OOO. Hardly a paper in the country failed to announce the occasion.
 From clipping returns received st the National associations headquar- ters, it is estimated that fully 10000 newspapers. magazines, religious and technical journals gave publicity to this national event. For this assist ance on the parto the press. the National association desires to ez- press its thanks.
 Although the movement for Tuber- culosis Sunday was handicapped by lack of tnme and funds the Ma tional association feels that the cam paign has been worth while. Many foreign countries observed the day also. Plans are now under way for a wider observance of the day in 1911. The active cooperation of ev. cry religious denomination. beside. that of governors. mayors and public officials. as well as that of other agencies wiIlbesought
 The promoters of theis movement announce that they do not wish to interfere with the church calendar of any denomination. It is not planned to have a special Tuberculosis Sun day as a regular church day. The plan is to have the subject of health, and particularly tuberculosis, brought up in the churche sfor any service or part of service and as narly sinulta- neously in all parts Of the country as possible.

WATSON QUITS THE PEOPLES
 PARTY FOR THE DEMOCRATS

AUGUSTA, GA, June 9.-(Speciai) The announcement made in his last letter by Hon. Thomas E. Watson. of Thomson. Ca, that he has returned 10 the fold of democracy, after twen- ty-two years as t-ader of the peoples party. and for half of that time prac- tically the sole mainstay of the party will furnish the politicians of the state something to speculate upon for some little time
 That the direct inspiration which has brought Mir Watson to this con clusion-whether it is a sudden one, or of gradual culmination-is undis- putably his desire to defeat Hon. Thomas W. Hardwick for reelection to congress from the tenth dist rict Of Georgia.
 The announcement is creating no end of comment and some little spec ulation. as to whether or not the change of political utilization. if it can be termed such. on Mir Wat sons part is simply through his de- sire to defeat the man whom he charges with political and personal treachery and efforts to maIign Wat sons character, or whether Mir. Wat son has come to the conclusion that it is time for him to use what infiu- ence he has among the people to unite them in white mans party"
 Returned for Good.
 However conclusions may be reach ed in such a speculation, it Is known to be e safe assumption in finally concluding that Mir Watson has re- turned to the democracy for good and all-that is. that he has not merely "aopped" for the moment, but that he is going to remain a demo crat.
 What is going to become of the populist party without leader. is an- other question. and one which Mir. Watson does not indicate an answer for in the rather clear language he uses in reading himself back into the democracy.
 Mir. Watson. who is a native Geor- sian, has presented the political cir cle of the country quite an interest ing character study. Twenty-Five years ago he was prominent in state politics and was a democrat of some strength. He had ideas then which  were peculiarly his own. and, during a slightly later interval, he served as a democratic elector-at-large from the
