This preparation of herbs, leaves,
flowers and berries (containing no to
bacco or habit-forming drugs) is either
smoked In an ordinary clean plpo or
smoking tube, and by drawing the
medicated smoko into tho mouth and
inhaling Into tho lungs or sending It
out through the nostrils In a perfectly
natural way. the worst caso of Catarrh
can bo eradicated.
It is not un
pleasant to use,
and at tho same
tlmo It Is en
tirely harmless,
and can bo used
by man, woman
or child.
Just as Catarrh
Is contracted by
breathing cold or
dust and germ
laden air, just so
this balmy anti
septic smoking
remedy goes to
all tho affected
parts of the air
passages of tho
head, nose, throat and lungs. It can
readily bo seen why tho ordinary
treatments, such as sprays, ointments,
salves, liquid or tablet medicines fall
they do not and can not reach all tho
affected parts.
If you havo catarrh of tho nose,
throat or lungs, choking, stopped-up
feelipg, colds, catarrhal headaches;
if you aro given to hawking and spit
ting, this simple but scientific treat
ment should euro you.

ably $50,000 in smaller contributions.
wnen tho end of the campaign was
drawing near and It was quito ap
parent that Mr. Parker could not bo
elected, some of my friends carao to
mo and told mo tho campaign would
collapse unless the committee re
received financial assistance. I
finally agreed, in order to pay the
party workers and preserve the in
tegrity of the party, to furnish $350.
000. This made a total of $450,000
I gave throughout the campaign.
This was a personal contribution and
did not represent anyone except my
self. I did not give tho motley to
eljict Parker. I merely wanted to
preserve tho democratic organiza
tion. In reply to questions concerning
tho pro-convention campaign of 1912,
Mr. Ryan said' he had contribtcd be
tween $75,000 and $80,000 to Gover
nor Harmon's campaign and more
than $30,000 to Representative
Underwood's.
"When I came back from Europe
in 1911 I made up my mind that the
prospects of democratic success wore
very bright," he said.
"I thought any democrat except
Mr. Bryan could bo elected and was
willing to aid any other man. Ho
had led tho party to defeat three
times and I regarded him as the only
cloud on tho horizon.
"I had no special interest "in any
one, but I had known Governor Har
mon, of Ohio, for twenty-five years
and believed ho would mako a good
president. 1 gave his managers
somewhere 'between $75,000 and
$80,000. Later on my friend, Sena
tor Bankhead, manager for Mr.
Underwood, camo to mo with an ar
gument in favor of a southern man
for president. That appealed to mo
and 1 gave him thirty odd thousand
dollars. I was not asked to aid Mr.
Clark or Mr. Wilson, but would havo
given them assistance if It had been
requested."
Democrats will also be interested
in Judge Parker's remarkable com
ment on Mr. Ryan's testimony. Fol
lowing is an Associated Press dis
patch from New York: Judge Alton
B. Parker, tho democratic presiden
tial candidate In 1904, said that he
was astounded at the "colossal" con
tributions to the democratic cam
paign fund in that year by Thomas
Fortune Ryan, as revealed in tho
testimony before tho Clapp commit
tee in Washington.
"I havo read the testimony of Mr.
Ryan," said Judge Parker, "and I
am astounded. I was always under
the impression that Mr. Ryan and
Mr. Belmont were leading contrib
utors to the democratic campaign
fund, but that they were colossal
contributors, as now appears, I never
knew. Mr. Belmont favored my
nomination and Mr. Ryan had vigor
ously opposed it.
"It now appears from Mr. Ryan's
testimony that late in the campaign
when my election was not even
boped for by him he paid a vast sum
to meet debts of the national com
mittee that the honor of the demo
cratic party might not be impugned.
"August Belmont is said to have
joined in that undertaking. Neither
they nor their friends ever gave to
me a hint of this personal sacrifice
not for the candidate, but for the
party to which they were attached.
For eight years they have suffered
reproach, but I, for one, doff my hat
to them. For the honor of the demo
cratic party not in tho hope of
electing its candidates, for Its defeat
was amply assured In the closing
weeks of the campaign they made
good the obligations of the organi
zation, not out of the funds of cor
porations, but of their own pockets.
"The outcome of the campaign of
1904 is the abolition of corporation
contributions by federal statutes and
bv tho statutes of this and manv
Mother states. Tho statute, supple-'
ihented as they have, been by acts
requiring enforced publication of
contributions with tho names of tho
contributors, will ultimately do away
with tho practice of raising largo
sums of money to mako merchan
dise of votos of citizens and for this
all good citizens will bo thankful."
AUGUSTUS THOMAS SI'ISKCI!
Augustus Thomas, tho playwright,
placed William Sulzer In nomina
tion for governor of New York. Mr.
Thomas's speech wa3 as follows:
"Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen:
I offer for your consideration tho
namo of a candidate for tho gover
norship of this great Emplro state.
In doing so 1 am awaro of tho con
ditions that confront us. I know
that oxccsslvo burdens upon tho
people and repeated disappointments
In thoir hopo of relief have brought
homo to thorn cloooly tho problems of
government. That, Impatient with
their representatives, they nro tak
ing that proper intorost which is In
separable from liberty. I know that
this stir of tho common heart is not
in Now York alone, hut is felt
throughout tho nation.
"I know that today tho nation is
turning to this convention in fair
hopo that tho man you chooso shall
bring added vigor to their cause.
"We offer you a candidate who
has the respect of tho free press of
stato and nation.
"The progressive wing of our op
ponents has for its chosen leader a
man of achievement and gcneroHlty.
Ho comes from a race that gave hu
manity a God and civilization a faith;
a people that found in America the
first peaceful harbor in the storms of
four thousand years. This admir
ablo and just Jew whoso words can
not bo bettered, said publicly of this
leador I propose: 'In 1832 Amorica
made a treaty with Russia guaran
teeing that tho citizens of each na
tion should havo equal rights in tho
country of tho other. Later Russia
chose to discriminate between our
citizens according to religion. Dur
ing forty long years American citi
zens wero put in Russian prisons.
" 'For forty years thero was that
infringement upon our national
honor, that blow against tho dignity,
tho sanctity, the solidarity of Ameri
can citizenship, until there stood up
in tho house of representatives this
chairman of tho committee on
foreign affairs, who in logic and elo
quence told tho country that Russia
should no longer stamp under her
iron heel the rights of Americans.
Then passed that famous resolution
that gavo not only Russia, but teh
world to know wo place human
rights above profits of farm machin
ery, wo place the man above the dol
lar.' "In my opinion, and I hope in the
opinion of this convention, that mo
tion written by the son of a Presby
terian preacher in the defense of a
race is more than tho report of cora
.mittee, more than joint resolution,
more than a national document; it
Is a page In the history of rnan.
"We offer you this publicist of a
quarter of a century's training; his
five years at Albany in that legisla
tive body, which a governor must
understand; a speaker of tho as
sembly, whoso rules and tactics an
executivo should comprehend; his
eighteen years in tho congress of the
nation, of which our state is a con
sonant part; a man who never
shirked a duty nor failed a frienJ.
"Tho measure of courage is the
promptness of recovery. In the
darkest hours of democratic defeat
this unbeaten candidate has been the
first to rally tho wavering line; the
ono man with that courage that Na
poleon said was so rare in men, the
silent courage of 2 o'clock at night.
"No party over oere& to the,
earnest people of the state a man so
consistently their champion as this
stalwart, serious, incorruptible? com-,
moner William Sulzer;" i, -
