NEW USE FOR
 WAR ANTEEPTIC

Scientists have at last perfected liquid anuseptic called Steroiine 10 combat the danger from mouth germs. This antiseptic mouth wash has as its basis Dobells Solution, which proved so amazingly success ful as germicide during the War. and is officially recognized as the finest of antiseptics today.
 The demand for the new mouth an- tiseptic Steroline arose when health authorities traced many of the se- rious diseases to the lack of proper care of the mouth. Experiments show that cleaning the teeth with tooth powder does not clean between the teeth and does not effectively sterilize the mouth, thereby leaving germs to decay the teeth and to in- feet the gums and throat
 Spraying the nose and throat with Steroline, gargling frequently, and brushing the teeth with 1t regularly keeps the teeth thoroughly clean and free from decay, effectively sterihzes i the mouth and soethes and heals sore and bleeding gums.

The kindest thing God ever made,
His hand of very healing laid
Upon a fevered world, is shade.
His glorious company of trees
Throw out their mantles, and on these
The dust.stained wanderer finds ease.
Green temples, closed against the beat
Of noontime's binding glare and heat,
Open to any pilgrims feet.
The white road blsters in the sun;
Now half the weary journey done,
Enter and rest, 0 weary one!
And feel the dew of dawn still wet
Beneath thy feet, and forget
The burning highways ache and fret.
This is Gods hospitality,
And whose rests beneath tree
Hath cause to thank him gratefully.

should be of very valuable assistance
in preparing the assessments for 1921.
Senator Tobin showed me some in
teresting figures today on the taxes
on the city of Denver. These figures
showed the Denver taxes, not count
ing the state tax or special tax,
amount to S7,2S0,O 900, of which S3.5S0,-
600 were spent for schools and 3d.
100000 for other expenses. In other
words, the taxes for Denper alone
exceed the present state tax for all
purposes by over million and a half.
The House has passed our railroad
rate bill and the bill creating an ex-
ira Judge in the Seventh Judicial
District. The House originally took
up the House bill by Representative
Reece of Rifle, which would require
the railroads to make fifteen miles an
hour when transporting live stock ex-
cept where the. Public Utilities Com
mission decided it was impractical to
make that rate of speed. 1t did not
apply to less than ten cars of live
stock on the train, and time was taken
the matter is that the House bill was
out at division points. The fact of
so full of jokers that they dropped it
and passed the Senate bill which l
drew up without any amendments
whatever, feeling that it was abso-
lutely fair, that it took care of one
car of live stock as well as forty, that

manner of getting this royalty would
change the entire law of some thirty
