Ad Important Matter.
County Attorney W. W. Wilson is
up a stump, as it were, as to what to
do with children who are brought into
the county court and sentenced to the
reform scheoi, as the state funds for
the transporting of the children, sen
tenced to that school, has been ex
hausted and the oflieers do not care to
put up their money and run the risk of
getting the same back from the state
when the legislature makes another
appropriation. Unless the county
commissioners mako somo provisions
to c ire for these expenses no one con
victed and sentenced to the reform
school can be taken there, but will
have to be held in the county jail cr
released on bonds u-nlil some funds are
available for this purposo. The county
attorne- will be loth to file or allow to
be tiled any complaints of this nature
in tho future unless the complainant
or some one assuis the court that the
expenses will be forthcoming as soon
as tho conviction is s-ecured. Ne

a man. Any one who has had an at

belief. It V.as never been claimed that
Chamberlain's Pain lSulni would cast

Constitutionality of the State Law Sub
mitted to the Conrt.
The following in regard to the case
of the State of Nebraska vs. the Stand
ard Oil company, which'was taken up
in supreme court yesterday, is clipped
from the Lincoln Journal:
"The constitutionality of the anti
trust law of Nebraska was argued yes
terday in the supremo court in tho
case of the state against tho Standard
Oil company. Theciso came up on a
demurrer of the state to that part of
the answer of tho company that ques
tions the constitutionality of the state
law under which Attorney General
Smyth seeks to present the company
from doing business on the ground
that the company is a "trust," Oae
hour for argument was given each side.
Attorney General Smyth appeared for
the stbta. Senator John M. Thurston,
one of the company's attorreys,did not
appear before tEe court and it was said
by his co-laborers that he was no
longer in the case. However, there
are no papers on fila showing that he
has withdrawn as attorney in the case.
It the court decides the demurrer of
the state in favor of the Standard Od
company the suit will end with the
fall of tho state trust law. Ii the de
cision is in favor of the state the court
will proceed to take evidence on the
allegations in the state's petition. The
motion of the state was submitted at
the close of the argument in the after
noon." Tortured Witness.
Intense suffering was endured by
witness T. L. Martin, of Dixie. Ky.,
before he gave this evidence: "I
coughed every night uutil my throat
was nearly raw; then I tried D.'. King's

relief. I have used it in my family

it as the greatest remedy for coughs,

CATARRH IS A CONSTITUTIONAL OR BLOOD DISEASE,
and far beyond the reach of mere local remedies. Those who rely upon them for a cure lose valuable time, meet with disap
pointment and allow the disease to take firmer hold. Only a real blood remedy can reach this troublesome and dangerous disease.
S. S. S cures Catarrh because it first cleanses and builds up the blood, purifies it, makes it rich and healthy, stimulates and
puts new life into the sluggish worn-out organs, and thus relieves the system of all poisonous accumulations.
Mrs. Josephine Polhill, of Due West, S. C, writes r I had Catarrh, which became so deep
seated that I was entirely deaf in one ear, and all inside of fay nose, including part of the bone,
sloughed off. When the disease had gone this far the physician gave me up as incurable. I
determined to try & S. S. as a last resort, aud began to improve at once. It seemed to get at the
eat of the disease, and after a few weeks' treatment I was entirely cured, and for more than
seven years have bad uo sigu of the disease."
S. S. S. Is made of roots, herbs and barks of wonderful tonical and purifying
properties. It is the only vegetable blood purifier known, and a certain and safe
cure for all blood troubles. Send for our book on Blood and Skin Diseases, and at

The conspicuous absence of trees
from the residential streets of modern
New York is hard to explain. Rich
men who live here on!y during the
winter appear to take very little inter
est in their fellow citizens who are
compelled to remain in town all sum
mer. In some in&tancos, indeed, the
absence of trees in fiont of houses sit
uated upon our park and river fronts
seems to suggest a fear on the part of
the owner that foliage might obicure
architecture, apparently oblivious of
the fact that the beauty of a dwelling
is frequently enhanced thereby. As
it is, few of our side streets are embel
lished with vegetation; and even along
the Boulevard an avenue highly fa
vored by nature the trees are neg
lected. This is true also of Seventh
avenue above Central park, St. Nicho
las avenue and of all other thorough
fares not placed under the jurisdiction
of the park commissioners a bodv
which should be authorized to exercise
control over every avenue upon which
tbe preservation of the trees is deslr
ab'.e. Except in front of St. Luke's
hospital, Morningside drive, which is
the glory of upper New York, is today
barren of trees on its western 6ide;
while on the historic King's Bridge
road the few trees still remaining are
sadly neglected. What must we think
of a corporation that recently spent
the enotmius sum of $7,00 1,000 on the
construction of Harlem Speedway,
without exercising sufficient foresight
to provide that fine avenue with a row
of shade trees for the protection of
riders and drivers and their horses?

Few realize what a deep-seated, obstinate disease Catarrh is, regarding it as a simple inflammation of
the nose and throat, little or no attention is given it. But, however insignificant it may seem at first, it
is serioas and far-reaching in its results.
The foul secretions entering the circulation poison the entire system. The stomach, kidneys in
