MOST SEVERE COLD
is EASILY BROKEN
In Just Few Hours All Misery from
Bad Cold or the Grippe Will
Be Overcome.

Pape's Cold Compound is the result of
three years research at cost of more
than fifty thousand dollars, and con
tains no quinine, which we have con-
clusively demonstrated is not effective
in the treatment Of colds or grippe.
1t is a positive fact that dose of
Pape's Cold Compound, taken every two
hours until three consecutive doses are
taken, will end the grippe and break up
the most severe cold, either in the head,
chest, back, stomach, limbs or any part
of the body.
1t promptly relieves the most miser-
able headache, dullness, head and nose
stuffed up, feverishness, sneezing, sore
throat, running of the nose, mucous ca
tarrhal discharges, soreness, stiffness
and rheumatic twinges.
Take this harmless compound as d.
rected, with the knowledge that there
is no other medicine made anywhere
else in the world, which will cure your
cold or end grippe misery as promptly
and without any other assistance or
bad after effects, as a 25-cent package
of Pape's Cold Compound, which any
druggist in the world can supply.

ALL YOU NEED is A
CASCARET TONIGHT
No Sick Headache, Bilious Stomach
Coated Tongue or Constipated
Bowels by Morning.

Turn the rascals out--the headache
the biliousness, the Indigestion, the sick,
sour stomach and foul guses--turn them
out tonight and keep them out with
Casearets.
Millions of men and women take a
Casearet now and then and never know
the misery caused by lazy liver, clogged
bowels or an upset stomach.
Don't put in another day of distress.
Let Cascarets cleanse and regulate your
stomach; remove the sour. undigested
and fermenting food and that misery
making gas; takes the excess bile from
your liver and carry out of the system
all the decomposed waste matter and
poison in the intestines and bowels
Then you will feel great.
A Cascaret tonight will surely
straighten you ont by morning. They
work while you slgep. A l0-cent box
from any drug store means a clear head
and cheerfulness for months. Children
love to take Cascarets because they
taste good-never grippe or sicken.

pear in the February Century. 1t win
treat especially of the composite popula-
tion of the middle West, and of the
conditions which influence their living
and thinking conditions which differ in
many important lines from those of the
East
Later papers will present the reasser-
tion of political democracy in the mid
die West, the problem of the state uni
versities, how the middle West is equal
izing opportunity, and its stand on the
question of human welfare versus prop
erty rights. Professor Ross finds
throughout the middle West positive
spirit of courage and optimism with re-
spect to social outlook.
II should be remembered. in consider

MANY Geological Survey Reports.

The success of the United States geo
logical survey in reaching the public
with the results of its scientific work
is directly measured by the distribution
o. the bureau of mines and the con-
sequent removal of the deservedly pop
ular technologic bulletins from the sur
vey's publications, the total number of
reports and maps distributed by the
geological survey in 1911 was l20s,797,
am increase of per cent. over the cor
responding figures for 1910. The total
distribution of topographic maps. which
includes congressional distribution, ex-
changes, and issue for departmental use,
as well as the half million maps sold,
showed an increase of Is per cent. The
total distribution to the public of books
and maps is equivalent to more than 90
per cent. of the number of copies re-
ceived during the wear from the gov

Was Dropped Because of His
Large Fee
EMPLOYED BY OPPOSITION
In Addition to Service for Investigating
Committee Detective Asked to Probe
the Veracity of Certain
Witnesses.

Washington, Jan. Developments,
more or less sensational, about to take
place in the Lorimer case, will disclose
that William j. Burns, the detective who
built up the evidence around the Nc
Namara dynamiters, has been at work
for at least three months gathering evil
dence to be presented this week to the
committee investigating the election of
the Junior senator from Illinois, Detec-
tive Burns was employed for about a
month by the Senate committee and
was subsequently engaged by the inter-
ests fighting to unseat Senator Lorimer
The committee discontinued his services,
according to members Saturday, because
of the almost pfohibitive expense.
1t is reported that the end sought
by the anti-Lorimer interests is the inn
parchment of certain witness, who tes-
titled in Senator Lorimers defense re-
lating to the alleged statement by G. L.
Wiehe, a brother-in-law of Edward
Hines, that Jackpot" fund of 100000
was used ito put Lorimer over" Burns
is said to have reported to the commit
tee that he was prepared to offer evil
dence that one of the witnesses who
testified in regard to this incident con-
fessed that he was paid 81 500 to go
to Washington. A Photographic method,
by which Burns obtained the alleged
confession, is also said to have been laid
before the committee. Burns went to
Washington last Tuesday, and remained
until Wednesday night. His report was
to some of the members
of the committee, and it is said was
laid before the committee later in eXecu-
tive session.
1t is not claimed that the evidence
Burns promises to produce is intended to
whether or not there was a
100000 jackpot fund or that Senator
Lorimer had knowledge of it, 1t affects
solely the veracity of witness called
bv the defense. This new evidence will
be laid before the committee after the
cross examination of Senator Iorimer
this week. He will resume the witness
chair to-day and finish his testimony by
Wednesday.

A combined colander and press has
been invented by Minnesota man that
will be found handy in the kitchen.
The apparatus is bowl shaped and has
a revolving blade or screw fitted in it
and turned by means of handle. An
iron upright clamps to the edge of Ia
bic or shelf and holds the colander
firmly few inches above the surface.
Below the utensil is space for the re-
ceptacle into which the fruit or vegeta-
bles are to be strained. The material
to be used is dumped into the colander
bowl and the handle turned steadily.
The blade squeezes the stuff against
the sides of the bowl, and the sub
stance is strained through the fine per-
foration. Hulls. skins, seeds, etc. re-
main In the bowl, and they will not
pass through the holes. This device is
especially handy for ricing potatoes or
smoothing gravy.

The Lies We Tell

To tell lie to another person is bad
enough-to tell a lie to yourself is inf
nitely worse
And, there are plenty Of people Who do
thiswho are doing it every day Of their
lives. What is more, they permit them
selves to be fooled by the lies they tell
themselves.
Let one Of these individuals make n
mistake of any kind, and he promptly
devises an excuse TO relieve himself of
possible censure. "Well, | couldn't help
it," he SAYS, when, in his own heart
he knows that he could have helped it.
1t was not necessary that he should have
spoken the words that passed his lips
that his hands should have been guilty
OF their unwise aet-he could have re-
strained himself had he desired to do so.
It was through carelessness, If not de-
liberate foolishness, that he drifted into
these difficulties.
| have heard many a man protest that
he was doing the best he could to make
his way in the world when | was NOR
ally certain that he was not doing his
bcst-not even his tenth best.
1t means great deal to really do
our best. Have you ever watched the
snow melt beneath the rays of the sun?
For DAYS it may have been cold. and
the snow has remained just where it
fell or drifted. Suddenly the tempera
ture changes-the sun comes out-and,
almost before you have noticed that it
was disappearing, the snow has gone.
II is this that happens when we do
our best No matter how difficult the
task may seem--no matter how grave
the responsibility we let our
best get hand at it, and the way is
cleared as If by magic. To tell ourselves
that we have done our best, however,
when we have not done quarter, or
tenth part, as well as we are capable of
doing is a lie of the worst character.
and if we make ourselves believe this
falsehood. and get into the habit of
shaping our life by this false standard,
ali our strength is being wasted-Nye
are building for failure rather than for
success.
There are lots of us who lie to our
selves daily, telling ourselves that we
cant" do things when, as a matter of /
fact, we might do them easily if we /
we're to try; telling ourselves that we /
are right when common sense assures /
rs that we are wrong; making our
selves believe that we are the victims /
Of other peoples selfshness, or that |
circumstances have conspired TO make |
rs fail in all our undertakings, when. as
we know in our own souls, we never
-eallv tried to succeed.
There is great difference between
wishing" for and wanting" to win.
lne is negative; the other. positive. One
5 a passive force; the other, an active
'orce. We don't have to be told that
.hese facts are true. We know it by
experience, but sometimes we make our
elves believe that even our own expert
noes are not true to fact. We lie
bout them to ourselves. and We make
ourselves believe the lie-Graham Hood
