STOP CATARRH!
Unless Properly Treated With Hy0mei
This Disease May Become
Serious.

If you have catarrh, indicated by
shifting, stopped up head, droppings in
the throat and morning choking, there
is an irritated state of the mucous
membrane which affords an ideal con-
dition for the growth of disease germs
Do not allow these dangerous germs
to begin the destruction of your
health
The easiest, simplest. quickest sur
est and cheapest way to check catarrh
is by breathing Hyomei This wonder
full medicated air treatment does not
upset the stomach, but is breathed in
through the Hyomei inhaler, directly
following and surely destroying all di-
sease germs that may have been in
haled--the tissues of the throat, nose
and lungs are quickly healed and vital
lied.
Money refunded by R. Hodgins to
anyone whom Hyomei fails to benefit.
A complete uotfit costs but $100.

CUT DOWN TIME TO LONDON
Ferry Service at Marking Brings
London 10 Hours Nearer.

SHANGHAI, Jan. THE inaugural
ton recently of proper ferry service
between Marking and Pukow brings
this port within fourteen days of Lon
don The change not only effects a
saving Of ten hours but cuts out a
tiresome wait of many hours in the
city of Nankin.
The opening of the trans-Siberian
railroad several years ago ushered in
a schedule of little over sixteen days
between this city and the British cap
ital. The opening of the Tien Tsin-
Pukow railroad last year Topped off
nearly a day and a half, and the new
ferry service between Nankin and Pu-
kow bridges the gap from 30 p. m.
to 11:00 p, m. which existed formerly
in the time table

LAUNCH NEW MOVEMENT
Italian Suffragists Would Wrest Suf-
frage Right From Parliament

ROME, Jan. Italian suffragists
today launched 2 new movement for
the wrestling of the right of suffrage
from the present parliament. Since
the death two years ago of Lady Mar
escotti, the founder of the movement
and who all but succeeded in attain
ing the desired end, the movement in
Italy has been practically dead. Now
the women have new grounds for hope.
During the recent elections, the social
lists having declared for women's suf-
frage, the women took an active part
in their support. They were instru
mental In increasing the socialistic
block in parliament from 25 to 80. Pre-
mier Giolitli is dependent on the So
cialists for his 49, rity in parliament
and in return for this 1t is necessary
for him to concede to the socialists
certain legislation which they desile.
The women have already charged a
committee of the Latter with the draw
ing up of the suffraes bill which they
will have introduced.

KEY WEST-HAvANA FERRY.
Flagler System VIII Put on Line Of
Ferries Between Two Ports.

KEY WEST, Fla, Jan. THE Flag
Ter system is completing plans to run
ferries between Key West and Havana,
Cuba, daily Immense ferry boats to
be used in the service are already I'M
der construction in Philadelphia ship
yards. The company is at present en-
gagged in dredging out the basin sur
rounding the proposed site of their
terminal docks and the dock now in
use, and today there is depth of
water alongside the dock of 81 feet.
The work of dredging has answered a
double purpose, inasmuch as the mud
sucked up by the dredges has been
used to fill in the lower portions of
what is known as Trumbe Island,
large body Of land which was made"
by the Flagler system. The land was
named for Howard Trumbe, the we'll
known contractor, who had charge of
this particular portion of the work.
The dock now in use, which is 1000
feet long, will soon be removed. 1t has
been surrounded by massive walls of
reinforced concrete, inside of which is
being pumped rock and mari to make
a permanent and indestructible pier
The new dock will be much wider
than the one now in use, but will be
shortened to a length Of 1900 feet.

ward material saving in the purchase
of such household goods as milk, eggs,
and truck farm products will result.
The plan is to make as full use of
the parcel post as is possible. The
chief problem discussed today was the
matter of practicable containers for
milk and eggs. The plan is to get into
personal touch with farmers through
out Maryland and Virginia and get
household goods direct from the pro-
ducers via the parcel post Whether
the alliance will appoint agents to
canvas the farmers or whether the
women will canvas by mail was not
settled today This question will be
taken up later. 1t was decided, how
ever, to begin at once a campaign
among Washington housewives to in
crease membership in the alliance so
that goods can be purchased in large
enough quantities to mutually benefit
the producer and the purchaser. Only
by buying in large quantities it was
declared, can the farmers be brought
into line and sell at such prices as
will mean real saving for the consum-
erS

Busch Line Rate Restored.

ST. LOUIS, Jan. THE allowance
to the Manufacturers railway, from
the through rates Of trunk lines oper-
ating in ST. Louis, of $3.50 upon each
car it handles for the trunk line, is
scheduled to become effective today.
This change is due to the ''tap line"
decision recently handed down by the
commerce court at Washington.
The apparent effect of the "tap lines"
decision, as interpreted by officials of
the Manufacturers Cotton Belt and G.
P. & st. L. roads, is to lower the tariff,
by substituting division of the regu
lar through rates for the 81 charge
upon shippers to which the Busch line
was restricted by the interstate body
last August.

Legislature That Will Upset
Old Laws.

BALTIMORE, Jan. Former
Speaker Noble L. Mitchell of the
Maryland General Assembly, has plan
ned some sweeping reforms to intro
duce in the present session of the leg
islature. He wants Maryland to lead
in the fight to reform the method of
holding caucuses in the various states.
Instead of waiting until the eve of
the legislative meeting to select pre-
siding officers for the ensuing SEES
sion, he wants caucus held at an ear
lier period, SO that these officers may
be chosen and such arrangement for
the selection of committees be made,
as will enable the legislature to get
down to work Immediately upon its
opening. ms

MAKE GREAT PREDICTIONS.
DR.. Anna Shaw, Suffrage Leader, Ex-
poets Wonderful Results this
Year.

NEW YORK, JAN Although the
New Year is only one week old, DR..
Anna Shaw, president of the National
| Association of Suffragists, is predicting
wonderful things for 1914 Resting
from her 1918 victories at the Hotel
McAlpin, this city, Dr.. Shaw said toz
day -
unlucky year, generally speaking, but
not so to the suffragist party. 1t was
the luckiest year in the organizations
history.
"In fact" continued DR.. Shaw, 1913
took woman suffrage out of the aca-
demic stage and put it in the realm of
practical politics.
'It cannot be put down in actual
figures, the years growth of suffrage,
but everywhere l go | find the increase
of favorable sentiment toward the par
ty most gratifying. Men are gradually
coming over to the belief that women
shrould vote and politicians are forced
into giving us marked attention. II
linois has done much for us, twenty
nine electoral votes in addition to what
women had would naturally make us
very visible to men who could not for
merly see us. mathematician legis-
latures passed more suffrage bills than
in any previous years and there were
also legislatures that considered suf-
frage bills without passing them. 1t
is triumph to have a bill discussed in
legislature even though it may not
be actually passed. 1t proves that the
solOns think us worth talking about.
The year gave us Alaska as well as IL
linois, and the first bill passed by the
legislature in Alaska was one enfran-
chising women, which, as it did not
have to be submitted to voters took
effect Immediately. Nineteen fourteen
promises to be a great year for actual
DR.. Shaw admitted that
she did regret that 1913 had not
brought to the suffrage party the dis
cussion of womans enfranchisement in
and in the presidents mes
sage.

New Postage Rates.

WASHINGTON, Jan. Under a
new table of postage rates on fourth
class mail which went into effect to-
day, parcels weighing four ounces or
less can be mailed at the rate of 1
cent for each ounce, or fraction OF an
ounce, regardless of distance. Parcels
weighing more than four ounces will
be mailable at the pound rates, frac-
ton of pound being considered full
pound. The usefulness of parcel post
maps and guides furnished by post
masters and the public is not affected
by the new rates.

STRINGS HANG ON PRIZE
Most Coveted Art Prize Not SO Desir-
able Because of Restriction.

ROME, Jan. 7.-"Grand Prix de
Rome" formerly the most coveted art
prize in the world is not as desirable
now as it used to be. The winning of
it entitled the artist, sculptor or paint
er, as the case may be to spend three
years at the famous French academy in
the Villa Medici at Rome, which is now
under the direction of Desnard, the
famous French artist. 1t has been de-
cided that in the future the pension

necessary for the domestic happiness
Of the students. Exceptions will be
made, however, by the French minister
of public instructions, when the case
seems to warrant 1t.

Italian Women Vote.

MILAN, jan italian women have
just won their first right to vote in the
commercial elections of this city. Some
700 women who are members of the
Milan chamber of commerce are affect
ed by the concession. In contract,
however, with the political suffrage Of
men in Italy which is enjoyed also by
the analphabets, the women either
have to present certificate showing
they have completed the elementary
school or show a government official
that they know how to read and white.

WEDNESDAY, JANUARY Z, 1914
WATCH YOUR TAX RECEIPT.

That the caption or these few re-
marks promises to be the chief slogan
not alone in Latah county but through
out the entire state was indicated yes
terday at the meeting of the chamber
of commerce when one of Moscow's
most prominent citizens delivered a
very able address on the taxation prob
lem.
The figures submitted in Mr.. w. M.
Morgans address revealed an alarming
condition and must necessarily awak-
en- every citizen to the fact that the
people are pacing through life at rate
that will lead to the bankruptcy courts
unless the brakes are applied.
Since the figures submitted by Mr..
Morgan were in no sense in the nature
of partisan view but in broad spirit
of fairness and with view of sounding
a note of warning, a complete inves-
tigation of the source and disposition
welcomed by the public. 1t is COM
mendable that the chamber of com
merce has entered into this spirit al
ready and that civic committee is
now completing its labors along this
line 1t is time now to lay aside
craftsmanship and get into the meat of
Al
textbook is sufficiently interesting to
all loyal citizens to forget party affil-
iations and enter into common sense
view of the conditions.
Necessarily the people must trust a
few of it's best citizens to handle their
quasi-public affairs and in Difference
to the county officials of Latah county
no faint of suspicion of misappropria
ton or maladministration has been
laid to their doors. An investigation
OF the taxation problems at this time
is just as important to the officials in |
office as to the public at large and is |
undoubtedly welcomed as fervently by |
them as by the ordinary citizen.
The handling of the affairs of coun
ty of the wealth of Latah or the city of
Moscow entails no small amount of
sacrifice on the part of those to whom
these duties fall 1t is big business
and must be handled like
any other large business enterprise.
The laws point out the fundamental
to observe and must be adj
hered to. On the good judgment of the
officials in charge rests the RESPONSE
bility of wise and economical adj
of affairs. By all means
the people are a unit in desiring a
searching investigation of the taxation
only with a desire to reduce
The high cost of living. The work
Of the chamber of commerce in this di- ,
,ection is to be commended
