INQUISIT|ON TO BEGIN.
Newspapers Can Keep No Secrets
From the Government.

Washington, Sept. POSTMASTER
General Hitchcock has issued instruc-
tons for carrying into effect the new
newspaper and periodical law, first
returns under which must be made by
October i.
The law requires that publishers
shall file on the first days of April
and October of each year both with
the postmaster general and with the
local postmaster, under penalty of
denial of the use of the malls. a sworn
statement of the names and addresses
of the owner, publisher, editor, mana
ging editor and business manager of
their newspapers and periodicals.
Religious, fraternal. temperance and
scientific publications are excepted.
For corporation the names of the
holders of more than one per cent of
the stocks, bonds or other securities
must be given and in the case ofs-daily
newspapers, a statement of the aver
age paid circulation for the preceding
six months is required.
All editorial or other reading mat
ter appearing in a newspaper or ma
gazine for the publication of which
pay is accepted or promised, must be
marked advertisement under pen
atty of a fine of not less than $50 or
more than $500.
Although this law was not favored
by the postoffice department., said
Postmaster General Hitchcock, lit
will be administered faithfully and i'm
gress doubtless had in mind the lead
ing daily newspapers but it affects al
so nearly $4,000 weeklies- Many of
these publications are having hard
struggle for existence and will find
the making of returns a considerable
burden
I'm my judgment-and so ex-
pressed it to the congress-the pro-
vision will be harmful, as it will re-
quire the continuous use of valuable
space in the publications and at the
same time be resented as censorship
of the press. One of the greatest diff
ficulties now encountered in the en-
forcement of the law relating to the
second class mail privilege is that the
pOstoffice department is compelled by
law to make inquiry into so many as
poets of the private business of pub
fishers. This gives rise to the COM
plaint-ill-founded, in my opinion
that the government interferes need
lessly with the privileges of the press
My judgment is that it should be the
constant aim, not only of the con-
gress, but of the postoffice depart
ment, to lessen the necessity for super
vision of the public press in the en-
actment and administration of postal
laws
On July 1, 1912, there were 2S,144
newspapers and periodicals having

"Satan Highest Power in
Heaven After Trinity

Washington, Sept. 17.-John Arm
strong Chaloner, member of the
Chaloner family of New York, who
is legally insane in that state, al
though legally sane in Virginia, says
he has received message from hell
| through his deceased friend, Thomas
Jefferson Miller. Chaloner, who lives
at Merry Mills, Va, came to -Alexan-
dria to get the message from Miller.
Chaloner says Miller informed him
that Hell is more an affair of the in
tellect, will power and aspiration than
merely combustion" and that the
temperature is of the nature of our
temperate zone. Thus Chaloner quotes
Miller:
In hell, morality is as enthusiast
cally and scientifically taught as
mathematics and physics at any uni
versity. Justice rules, but it is I'M
tempered by mercy"
Chaloner says Miller. declared that
on arriving in hell he found himself
to have been Marshal Ney in life. He
had assumed his stature and features,
and had conversed with Napoleon
Bonaparte, who later appeared before
him in the costume of Michael An
gelo. Again Chaloner quotes Miller:
"On reaching here, the first SenSa-
ton experienced was that of awaken
ing after a sound and peaceful sleep.
When 1 opened my eyes what did l
behold? Napoleon Bonaparte sitting
upon a throne the like of which never
before was SEEM
In the opinion of Miller, according
to the message of Chaloner, Satan lis
a thoroughly misunderstood person
ality. Satan is no enemy of Jehovah
as is sin. Satan is Jehovahs public
prosecutor. Briefly, Satan is the high
est power in heaven after the Trim
ity. He reigns in hell, but appears in
heaven as he pleases."
Satan, Miller declares. according to
ChaIoner, lis a prince, a gentleman, a
hero and a noble creature"

THEY FORGOT PAYDAY
Commissioners Had to Back Up on
Their Joke on Stotts.

The board of city commissioners yes
terday in attempting to play a joke
on Commissioner Stotts adjourned 700
hastily and reverted the joke OH them
selves by failing to provide for the pass
ing of an appropriation ordinance and
nearly neglecting to hold a payday for
the latter part of Septenl Der.
Hardly had the commissioners ceased
their snickering and haw-hawing over
the adjournment of the morning session
at Stotts' expense when City Clerk
Burge dropped a bomb in the joy camp
by informing them that payday Was
Saturday, September 81 and the a5-
preparation ordinances had not beer
approved. Back to the commission
chamber silently slipped the commits
sioners and a new adjournment was
fixed.
Here is how it happened:
The commissioners were arguing on
the leave of absence of DIR. Babb. city
milk inspector Commissioner Stotts
said he would go down on the next
floor of the city hall, capture Dr. Babh
and bring him before the commission.
While he was on his mission the COM
missioners adjourned and slipped into
a nearby office to watch Stotts return
with his victim
Then they realized that they had ad-
journed until Monday. September %,
and payday was Saturday Hastily the
Joke was forgotten and a new date was
set for the next meeting It was
Stotts then who had the last long loud
laugh on the commission.

Constipation and Catarrh

med that the catarrh had anything to
do with the constipation. Suppose |
were to tell you that as long as you
have that catarrh you will never get
better of your consultation Would
you believe me? Well whether YOU
would believe me or not it is the truth
For many years 1 have been wrest-
ling with the problem of furnishing
the public an internal catarrh remedy
Peruna has been the remedy that /
have devised and it has certainly re-
Iieved many thousands of people, of
chronic catarrh.
Constipation was my chief difficulty
in treating these cases. 1 often felt
taht it would be better If laxative
element were added to Peruna. l fear
ed to do so, however, first because of
the number of catarrhal patients who
needed no laxative, and second I was
afraid of making such radical
change in a remedy that was already
doing so well. Thus it was that 1 con-
tinued to prescribe with the Peruna
a bottle of Manalin to those who need
ed a laxative. At last, under circum-
stances explained in my booklet. 1
was constrained to add the laxative
element to Peruna. This constitutes
what is now known as the revised
Peruna.
Now those who take Peruna will
first, find themselves promptly relieved
of their constipation. Second, the
will gradually disappear. And
once the catarrh is cured the consti-
patton leaves permanently. Then if
book, YOU will never have to take
pills any more. Cathartics and laxa-
tives you can ignore. You will be
relieved of both your
ratarrh and the constipation.
Peruna is for sale at all drug stores.
