of a full understanding, and it is of the utmost importance that the thought of our people should be kept clear with respect to the various de- partments of the government. The courts have nothing to do with the question of the wisdom or policy Of legislation. Questions cf constitution ality come before the courts after the legislature has acted, presumably with knowledge of the facts and upon careful inquiry.
 'The question that comes before the court is, whether after leglsla- ture has presumably done its full duty in examining the facts dealing with the facts according to it's 1udg- ment. the act of the legislature should he declared void and of no effect be- cause it exceeded legislative power. The question before the court IS whether it should be declared null litv because it was against the Con- stitution of the State or an act Of congress or against the Constitution of the United States.
 "Now. when anyone comes into court charging that an act fixing rates is contrary to the constitution or the state or of the United States what does the court say to him! It says: Before we will perform this extra ordinary function of declaring legis- latiye act void and of no effect, be- cause unconstitutional, we insist that YOU. the plaintiff in this case, snail prove your case beyond any perad- venture of doubt
 When you come in before you are able to make such case, after a legislature in it's wisdow and after examination has acted, and you en- deavor to get the courts to thWart the will of the legislature, the court very properly says: That is not our province You prove your case, ana if you haven't got the facts to snow in advance of the operation or the law, that it operates to cohIlsca'e your property, we will not 1nterlere with the operation of the law.

There is more Catarrh in this section of the country than all other diseases put together, and for years 1t was SUD- posed to be incurable. Doctors pre- scribed local remedies, and by constant ly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurabIe.

That Weak Link!

Are you excitable, irritable, morbid palpitation, f1uttering, a feeling of weakness about the heart? Have you dizziness, faintness, shortness of breath a full or distressed feeling after meals? Do you know that you may be on the verge of Nervous Exhaus- tion?
 Let me tell you story.
 'They were lifting a fireproof safe by means of a heavy chain the other day. It looked like a very strong chain. To the inexperienced eye there was nothing wrong with it. Yet the keen eye of the Master Contractor was fixed on one of it's links. A close scrutiny disclosed the tiniest crack. He at once cast it off and took another chain. What would have happened if you had not discovered that in time 2 a bystander asked him. You see those men?' he said, pointing to the gang of workmen who were standing below, watching the safe in it's dizzy, upward flight. Well, they'd all be making busi- ness for the undertaken now if hadn't discovered that weak link in time'"
 My friend, is there weak link in your chain of life? A Specialist can discover it now before it is too late. Or would you rather take chances on making business for the undertaken.

Attacks Fat Hens.

'Bagging down behind" is usually
caused by the retention Of eggs in the
oviduct, followed by Inflammation and
tumor. When hens get too fat, eggs
are often broken in the passage, and
cause the same disorder. The tunors
sometimes grow to enormous size,
weighing the hen down. The presence
Of a male bird when hen is, in such
