THE WHOLE BODY
NEEDS PURE BLOOD

The bones, the muscles, and all the
organs Of the body depend for their
strength and tone and healthy action
on pure blood.
If the blood is very impure, the
bones become diseased; the muscles
become enfeebled, the step loses its
elasticity, and there is inability to
perform the usual amount of labor:
The skin loses its clearness, and
pimples, blotches and other eruptions
appear.
Hoods Sarsaparilla makes pure
blood. 1t is positively unequaled in
the treatment of scrofula and other
humors, catarrh, rheumatism, dys-
pepsia, loss of appetite, that tired
feeling. Be sure to get Hoods and
oet il TODAY. All druggists.

The January number of the North
American Review contains an article by
Lincoln Colcord, "Seamanship and the
Merchant Marine" and we wish it could
be placed in the hands of every Con-
gresham with the understanding that
they should give it careful reading.
The result would certainly be less fool
ish legislation on maritime affairs, and
perhaps some wise legislation, although,
as Mr.. Colcord very clearly shows, you
cannot create merchant marine by
Legislation alone. You have only to read
his opening paragraph to see how futile
and foolish is the idea that a fleet of
government owned and controlled ships
would restore this country's prestige on
the seas,
The Republican journal. [volume] (Belfast, Me.) 1829-current, 1916-01-20

The Journal has frequently called at
tentjon to what may properly be called
fool legislation" State and National,
bv which business and enterprise are
handicapped and conditions are created
that give the lie to the boast that this is
a free country. Much of this legislation
IS aimed at the press. The Postmaster
General is endeavoring to tax the news
papers to make up deficiency in the
postal revenues caused by the abuse of
the franking privilege; a Congressman
or member of a State legislature who
has been crit cised by the newspaper fc7
sins of omiss ion or commission seeks re-
venge by introducing bill to fetter or
penalize the press. Some of the bills
that have found their way on the stat
ute books are so absurd that it is hard to
believe that any legislature composed of
sane men could have enacted them. For
example, the Atchison Globe says:
Among the bills reported as introduced
in various assemblies are those prohibit
ing the exhibition by any merchant of
clock which is too fast or too slow, and of
the use Of face lotions by any woman un-
der 10 years of age. A recent bill makes
it a peni entiary offense for a man to
put his feet on his desk while debating
to a woman stenographer. And it is
rather more than joke. Thoughtful
people complain of the growing disre-
spect of law. Who could avoid disrespect
for such laws, and how few can or will
discriminate between wise laws and fool
ish when both are of equal authority?
And the mischief does not stop there.
With the multiplication of trivial crimes
involving no moral turpitude arrests in
evitably increase. 1t is SAID by an in
vestigator of repute that of the l25, 600
people arrested in Chicago in 1914, over
half were charged with committing
crimes which were unknown in 1894. Now
every u necessary arrest is an unmixed
evil. Every time that reputable man
or boy is arrested, hailed through the
street and thrust into a police station
cell, his self-respect suffers an injury
that makes him a worse citizen. Will
the refined woman who is treated as a
common criminal, as in one State she
may be, because her hat pin projects
more than half an inch beyond the crown
of her hat, ever recover from the shame
of it? 1t is about time the robust com
mon sense of the American people put a
summary stop to this ''verboten" non.
sense.

The discovery of Hyomei has wrought q
wonderful chang in the treatment Of catarrh.
Prior to three years ago the medicines ordi-
narily employed in the cure of this disease
were drugs, sprays, lotions, etc. In some in
stances they benefited, but the improvement
was not lasting.
With Hyomei you take into the air passages

those who have been helped by Hyomei.
A complete outfit is inexpensive and in
cludes an inhaler, dropper and sufficient Hyo.

Perhaps the strongest evidence that can be
given to doubters, is the fact that A. A. Howes

safe to say that the attitude of these

President Wilson's patriotism, sim
ceri ty and conscientious purpose are not
questioned. He simply don't know. and
has refused council from any quarter.
He does not even consult his cabinet,
but takes upon himself the decision OF
matters of grave Importance involving
the dignity and welfare of this great
country. He has had no experience IN
craftsmanship or in the practical affairs
of lifeI His calling has made him
theorist and an idealist, and his efforts,
however we'll meant, have been untortu-
nate for himself and for the country.
1t cannot be said that he has had to con-
tend with partisan opposition. He has
had united country behind him in all
that he has undertaken and some of his
staunchest defenders in Congress have
been Republicans.

MAY ALL GO TO JAIL.
SAYS MAYOR BINGHAM

LOT any raw stuff in the Elks' parade
TO be pulled off Friday afternoon. and
II the bunch don't watch their P's and
US, he'll put the whole works in ia;l
including the jackass and the kazoo
oand. The only difficulty the MAYOR
anticipates is keeping the iackass in
jail. The calaboose hasn't even been
able to hold an ordinary prisoner, let
alone a Jackass. Another difficulty
the mayor has in mind will be the at
tltude OF the residents of the COM
mun1ty where the Jail is located if the
Kazzooers and the jackass start bray-
ing at the same time.
Exhausted Rooster Crouch saws he
has cautioned the boys to soft-pedal
and not do anything that will offend
the discriminating tastes of the gen
eral public (for beer), but he feels
confident no one will pay any atten-
ton to his suggestions
The parade will start from the Elks'
home at 300 o'clock, Friday after
noon, and will wander around for an
hour or so. Mayor j. d. C. Morris
will be the marshal and David Sholtz
will be his assistant The marshal
will rides jackass. At least reports

that he will have to ride the same ami
