kerosene emulsion wash, miscible oils,
and the whale-oil soap solution. OF
these four sprays, the whale-oil soap
solution is the easiest to prepare, and
gives excellent results.
If whale.oil soap is used, the potash
brand is to be preferred and it should
not contain more than 80 per cent Of
water. The soap should be dissolved
in hot water and this solution should
then be diluted so as to contain n
pound of the soap to every four gall
Ions of water. Homemade a or
any good laundry soap, is often as eff
fective as whale-oil soap, and may be
used in place of it.
If the diluted kerosene emulsion is
used, it should be prepared as follows:
Dissolve one-half of a pound of the
whale-oil soap in a gallon of boiling
water and remove this from the fire.;
add two gallons of kerosene to the
soap solution while the latter is still
hot aid stir the resulting mixture un-
til a creamy solution results. This so
luton is known as the stock solution
and should be diluted at the rate of
a gallon of the stock solution in about
six gallons of water.
In spraying, spcci;l care should be
exercised to cover the tree or shrub
thoroughly with the solution, and in or
der to do this, some sort of a spray
pump nozzle is necessary.

AUTOMBILE WAS STOLEN

DR.. CatO'S Car Was Taken For
a Joy Ride

The theft of DR.. R. E. Cato's auto
mobile from the front of his res
dence early yesterday morning was
one of the boldest acts of like kind
committed here recently. DR.. Cato
had planned a daylight trip to the
country and came from his residence
to find the car game from the gate,
where he had left it but a few min
utes before The police were quickly
notifid and searching parties sent out
to recover the stolen car. Shortly
after o'clock it was found over IN
Brooklyn Heights, driven against the
sidewalk, where the car thief had
abandoned it and made good his es-
cape in the darkness. The car was
rot injured to any extent, but Dr.,
Cato, nevertheless, would be glad to
have a short, private, heart-to-talk
talk with the miscTeant who took it
for a joy ride.

THE NOSE A FILTER
TO STRAIN THE AIR
Ely's Cream Balm Kills The Deadly
Catarrh Germs.

The nostrils are perfect "air filters
and, when kept in clean, healthy state
strain every bit of air we breathe,
catching all dust particles, foreign
matter and germs. The air is full of
germs. You cannot dodge them, bur
you can safeguard yourself against
catarrh and other diseases contracted
in the process of breathing by keeping
the nostrils clean and healthy. Ca
tarrh germs will sometimes get in
their work, and you may mistake the
symptoms for an ordinary cold.
Don't take any chances. If you have
a stuffed up feeling in the head, or If
your throat is sore or filled With
phlegm, just grease the nostrils with
a little Ely's Cream Balm, draw the
pure, aromatic fumes back in the head
and you will be astonished at the eff
feet. In few minutes you will feel 4
loosening up in the head, the nasty
discharge will soon be stopped, the
soreness gone, and you will feel a
sense of genuine relief.
Ely's Cream Balm not only wards off
catarrh, but will quickly cure even
chronic, long standing case OF catarrh.
1t takes the trouble right where it
starts, in the nose and throat, cleanses,
heals and strengthens the raw, so.e
inside skin, or membrane, and in this
way drives out catarrh, and makes
you proof against this filthy, disgust
ing disease.
Summer colds, which often hang
on for weeks, can be quickly cured
with this cleansing, healing, antisep-
tic balm. All druggists sell it for
fifty cents a bottle, and the one
bottle is generally all that is needed
to effect a complete cure. Try it to-
day.

TO ExTiRPArE pANpEL,oNs.

The dandelion pest is again with us
and nothing should be left undone to
exterminate it. There are two ways of
getting rid of them One is to cut
them out by hand, and the other and
more modern method is to spray the
weeds with copperas. and iron sui
phate. An authority on the subject
gives the following directions as to
how to proceed:
If you cut out the plants by hand.
1t is necessary to cut well below the
crown with long sharp knife. It is
claimed by weed experts tina. the
weeds do not propagate from the
roots as much as from the crown.
To use the iron sulphate, or coli
peras. dissolve one and one-fourth
pounds of salt to a gallon of water,
and apply to the lawn with a snray
hump. Cover the lawn thoroughly.
There will be no injury to the grass.
In couple of weeks apply the spray
again and repeat the operations in a
fortnight after that
The grass anpsars black after
treatment, bat after being cut once
assumes really richer shade of
green than formerly. I"
All upon whose lawns the dandelions
are in evidence should get busy with
one or the other of these methods.

NEW TAX ON BACHELORS.

new tax on bachelors has been
proposed by the Lunch Club of the
Croker Wheeler Electrical Manufac-
turing Works at Ampere N j. The
club consists of a number of the de-
rartment heads and men holding the
more important positions in the com
rany. Some Of them are married and
others are not. AS the proportion of
henedicts has steadily increased that
party is becoming strong enough to
control the club. A recent PROPOSE
ton was to assess larger dues from
the bachelor element than from the
married men. The argument was that
the latter could lunch more economic
ally at home whereas the former
must perforce lunch at club or res
taurant Therefore it was unfair to
the benedicts to make them paw as
much as the men who had deliberately
chosen the expensive existence of
bachelors. The proposition was not
received with any great enthusiasm
by the bachelor minority, and at this
writing has not become bylaw Of the
club.

INFANTIlE PARALYSIS IN 1911.

While the number of cases of in.
fantile paralysis in 1911 was not near
~ as large as that in 1910, yet the
collected statistics show that the dis.
ease was widely distributed through.
out the United States. The number
of reported cases in 1910 was 1851,
with $50 deaths; in 1911, 1881 cases
with 440 deaths. These figures are
taken from the reports of states in
which the disease was reportabo and
from the printed bulletins OF some
other states. The report compiled by
the bureau of the census from the
registration area shows that the num-
Der of deaths for 1910 was ,459. The
data, however, are incomplete, and
therefore the number of cases was UNI
dcubtedly considerably larger than
these figures Indicate The deaths are
probably more completely reported
than the total number of cases. These
figures, however, bear out our previous
knowledge that the disease has alter
nate active and more or less ouieseent
periods owing to lack of susceptible
individuals or to the attenuation of the
infection. Both causes probably
operate. The Journal of the American
Medical Association urges an extern
sion of the registration area to all of
the states and the securing of com
nlete reports. which would no doubt
greatly increase the number of report
ed cases and would give valuable aid
in the study Of the disease.

which he gave unqualified endorse

ands of people suffer and die annually
of diseases which could have been
prevented with ordinary precaution.
He pointed out large expenditures oil
money for the prevention of disease
among animals while on the other
hand human beings are allowed TO
suffer and die with no ef1ortz to pre-.
vent these results further than to
call physi 'ian after one has become
sick.
INSANITY and crime, he said, are only
certain forms Of disease and with
proper principles of hygiene enforced
insanity could be reduced 80 per cent
and crime could e cut down to a min
imum. The Galesburg Mail quotes
him as saying in this connection.
"All the criminals of Indiana are
traceable directly to $50 families.
Check the propagation of these $50
families and future criminals will be
reduced to minimum in Indiana Ster-
1lization Of criminals is practiced in
Indiana DR. Hurry thinks well of
this practice and he says the criminals
themselves do not resent ii. He saws
the habitual criminals for the most

who has given many years of her life
to the cause of the negro for whom
she established Douglas center.
A committee which was appointed
to investigate lynching made report
aimed at the so-called civilization of
the white man which pointed out the
imperative need for liberation and
moderation by white and black in
working out the grave problem created
by the institution of slavery The
report dealt not only with Iynchings
but with other forms of lawlessness
of which the negro has been the vic
