Speaking of nothing at all to eat

According to the census there are
one-eighth of million idiots in the
United States, not counting the in
cipients who are just beginning to
smoke cigarettes.
The parcels post business is in bad

Under the old law we were allowed
to send packages by mail: now it is
parcels by post. Quite English,
you know. And by the way, did you
ever hear anyone use the word
''passel''?
Ii seems that those seargeants at
arms got the idea that Mr. Rookie
feller had left Jekyl to Hyde.

There is a great difference between
g-a-oI and goal, both in sound and
in sense, and yet for many fast
young man they prove to be synony-
nous. He lands in both at once.
IfTom McNeal said that state pub
lication of text books would save
Kansas parents 200 per cent on the
cost of school books, he was mistaken.
Such thing would be an arithmetic
al and grammatical impossibiiity 1t
would involve the getting of some
thing for 100 per cent less than moth
ing. He probably meant that there
would be saving of 66 2-3 per cent of
the present cost, or that we are pay
ing three times as much as we should
pay. Which may or may not be true.
This department is not very enthusi-
astic over state publication of school
books, nor state uniformity. 1t is too,
big a. thing. On the contrary, this
writer does favor county uniformity
of school books and advocates state
uniformity of county records, blanks,
forms and captions, whether printed
by the state or otherwise.

KILLS CATARRH GERM
USE BOOTHS HY0ME|

Try the sure and most effective
way to reach the raw, tender in
famed mucous membrane infest-
ed with catarrh germs-breathe
Hyomei. All druggists sell it.
You cannot reach the hooks
and crevices of the breathing or
gans with liquid preparations;
there is only one way-breathe q
few times daily the gsrm-destroy-
ing air Of Booths Hyomei. 1t
acts directly on the inflamed
membranes and destroys the ca
tarrhal germs.
Hyomei Is not a cure-all; 1t
has one purpose-quick and eff
fective relief of catarrh and dis
eases of the breathing organs.
When you are free of catarrhal
ills the general health will i'm
prove.
II you suffer from offensive
breath, raising of mucous, frequent
snezeing, husky voice, discharge
from the nose, droppings in the
throat, spasmodic coughing, or
any other symptoms of catarrh,
use Hyomei at once. 1t will de-
stroy the disease germs in the
nose, throat and lungs, and give
quick and permanent relief.
Hyomei does not contain CO.
caine or any habit forming drug
mo stomach dosing-you Just
breathe 1t. The complete outfit
including pocket inhaler and bot
tie of liquid costs $500, extra
bottles Of liquid, IL later needed,
30 cents. Crown Drug Co. guar
antees it.

NEW YORK, Nov. 2S.-Signor
EnricO Caruso, the worlds famous
singer, would like to be car

But the drudgery of singing in

LOOKS BRIGHT FOR

Voluntary Assessment Plan Appears to
Be Working Out in Satisf factory
Manner.

The committee having in charge the
voluntary assessment of memb bers Of the
Commercial club met yesterday after
noon in the Commercial club dining
room. 1t was announced that the as.
sessment had reached total of $11 $50
and the members of the committee
seemed absolutely confident that the
plan would work out satisfactorily.
Sale Of the "I Am For Utah'' but.
tons will begin within few DAYS by
a committee having the matter in
charge. Many of the buttons will be
turned over to the heads of organiza.
tions of the city and many also will be
sent TO every city and town in the
state, it being estimated that their
sale will net the publicity bureau of
the club in the neigbborhood of $50, 900
In order to appear less exclusive and
to remove any hesitancy that members
Of the club may have about entering
his private office, Secretary Will G,
Farrell Of the club has moved his desk
into the corridor of the club, just inside
the door.
Members Of the governing board Of
the publicity bureau of the club will
meet today, when they will hear the re-
port of Chairman Wesley King of the
