There is more Catarrah in this
section of the country than all other
diseases put together, and until the
last few years was supposed to be
incurable. For a great many years
doctors pronounced it a local dis
ease and prescribed local remedies,
and by constantly failing to cure
with local treatment pronounced
it incurable. Science has proven
catarrh to be a constitutional dis
ease and therefor requires constitu-
tional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by F. ]. Cheney
Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only con
stitutional cure on the market. 1t
is taken internally in doses from o
drops to a teaspoonful. 1t acts
directly on the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system. They offer
one hundred dollars for any case
1t fails to cure. Send for circulars

Those who are prompt in paying bills
are classified as class A. Those who

and those who never pay are class d,

bought personally. will get class

is the automatic weigher for coins of

was their duty to weigh each piece.
Pieces which were too heavy were re-

were weighed twice. once in blank and

W. |. DOUGLAS TRUST PLAN
Manufacturer Thinks Government
Should Obtain Publicity by
License System.

Large business organizations have
come to- stay. We cannot go back to
old conditions We must meet world
competition. Large concerns can pro
duce goods at lower cost than small!
ones. Germany favors large corpora
lions. The method of the present ma
ttonal administration is to dissolve
the great organizations and make
them smaller, which is a backward
step There should be no limit to a
corporation doing large and legiti.
mate business, such as would be pos
sible under the licensing plan which
l favor, writes w. L. Douglas. former
governor Of Massachusetts, in the
Boston Herald
Prejudices against corporations
merely because they are big, perhaps.
must be done away with. They give
labor better returns. They cheaper
product and thus benefit the consum-
er. They give opportunities to small
investors who get returns otherwise
unattainable. They employ able

all, but who receive handsome sal
aries for their ability and service.
In place of the Sherman law it is
my opinion there should be a depart
ment at Washington to grant licenses
to all manufacturers and corporations
in this country who do an interstate
commerce business.
The law should be made so clear,
plain and definite that it could not be
misunderstood. 1t should require all
capital to be paid in full. Semi-yearly
statements should be given to the
public and certified by public &C
countaint There should be a board
of examiners in each state to look aft
er these corporations just as our ma
tional banks are watched by the ma
tional government They should have
the right to enter the offices and ex-
anime the records of all the direc
torates of these companies.

Dormant Accounts Reach Big Total

what to do with such deposits has
been a puzzle ever since savings banks
were first established in that city
Money at four per cent interest per
annum doubles itself in about Is years.
and as four per cent. is the average
rate paid by the savings banks in New
York. IT will be seen that the "un-
claimed" money or dormant accounts.
unless checked would pile up enor-
mously in the course of time and be-
come such burden that the banks
might collapse under it. At first the
limit was fixed az 20 years. but later
was extended to % years.
Most of these sleeping accounts
were originally sums of only S. or
$40, fag-ends of accounts which once
were active The owners perhaps had
left these small balances simply to
keep their accounts open and finally
perhaps forgot all about them. But
many of the accounts represent money
deposited by some emigrant who later
probably went west or to some other
section of the new country, and. un-
able to write, had never again got in
communication with the bank.

Wonderful Machine Now in the Mint

they work automatically. each machine
taking ten coins at time. The move
ment of the beams of the scales de-
termines into which OF the several
chutes the weighed coin shall drop. II
1t is too light, the scale beam moves
up and the coin Is dropped into the
Lights" If it Is too heavy the scale
beam drops and the coin falls into the
'heavies" If it just balances the coin
drops among the coins which are of
the proper weight. The work is very
rapid and very accurate. There are
eight of these new machines in use
at the mint, and they have displaced

lars a day.
Another important Improvement at
the mint Is the automatic. self-feeding
coming presses. The blank coins were
formerly fed in by hand. The new
attachment consists of hopper, at
the bottom of which Is a copper disk
perforated with holes the size OF the
coins which are being stamped When
the machine Is in motion this disk re-
wolves slowly. and the blanks drop
through into a stacking tube, whence
they are carried by little clutches and
placed under the stamp.
