Henry Watterson, in the Louisville Courier Journal, says: "If we have a crop failure and a financial panic this jear, Bryan can be elected." Let us hope that all these calamities will not hafall this country in one year.

After he is well out of office, they will style Ihnawilves Roosevelt democrats. As the tisse for holding the repub lican national convention at Chicago advances, it is appareat that all the tan that are favorite sons in their own aftafat, sack as Gannon of Illinois, "Eairhaaki of Indiana, Knox of Penn . tylvania, aad Hughes of New York, have thus far failed to find aay sap fart oaaade of their owa state, while Tfft af Ohio is gaining ground every where. 8o it is a tea to one shot that IfaKaai H.

We recognize in Senator LaFollette a great lawyer, an earnest reformer and a growiag statesman aad politician, but this is'aot his year to he the stan dard bearer of the great republican Columbus aeeds a aew school house in the Third ward and aeeds jt badly. The present Third ward school build ing is the oldest school building ia the city. It was originally known as the "yellow school house," being aa old fashioned frame building. It was later veneered with brick. The school rooms are low and small, the timbers are rotten, it is without aay modern improvements, such as are now deemed essential to health and comfort It is a germ and disease breeder, and it should not be used as a school house another year. We believe oar people will vote bonds for a reasonable, sum to put up an up to date school house, either on the ground next to the pres ent location, or a little further west. Let our school board take up this matter at once, and" the people will sustain them. When the law permitting the free distillation of denatured alcohol was passed by congress, everyone thought the era of high priced fuel for power and heating purposes had passed, as damaged fruits and "vegetables and other waste of the farm could be used in its manufacture.- But this new product would largely take the. place of coal oil and gasoline, products of the Standard Oil company, and it was soon apparently discovered there were certain restrictions and red tape that made it impossible, in the eyes of 'the farmer, to erect a still without con dieting with the revenue law. But now Dr. Wiley of the department of agriculture has come to the rescue and is going to erect a still at the bureau of chemistry at Washington aad oper ate it himself for two or three months, producing denatured alcohol from such substances as are found on the farm that otherwise go to' waste. All the agricultural colleges of ' the different states are invited to send, representa tives to learn the art of making it, and they in turn will teach nvtb the farm ers of their own states The law was passed expressly for tbe benefit of the farmers, but so far it has been a fail ure. Dr. Wiley proposes to see that it is given a practical demonstration so the process may become general. He says denatured alcohol is an excellent fuel and makes a fine light, and the farmers should avail themselves of the .. .a tnew law permitting it to oe maae without the imposition of a revenue tax. M OUTE CARLO OUTCXJaJattD. Nowhere on the earth does an other such gambling institution exist as finds shelter in the New York stock exchange an unincorporated, irre sponsible institution. According to the statistics carefully compiled by James Creelman in Pearson Maga zine, there were sold in 1906 on the Stock exchance 286,418,601 shares of stock of the par value of $25, 000,000, 000, besides 665,000 thousand-dollar bonds; on the Consolidated exchange 136,000,760 shares of-stock, besides 21,569.178 snares of mining stock and 193,884,000 bushels of wheat This does not not include curb sales. These gambling transactions amount to over $30,000,000,000 four times the value of the products of all the farms of the United States, half the value of all the land and buildings, one-third the census valuation of all the wealth of every kind in the country. t Last year there were sold on the Stock exchange 43,339,710 shares of Reading, fifteen times the total amount of Reading stock in existence. Of the Union Pacific, Harrimaa's road, there were sold 36,751,000 shares, twenty times as much as exist ed. Ninty-nine and one-half per cent of these transactions, according' to Thomas W. Lawson, are nothing ex cept bets that the price goes op or down. They are as much gambling as betting on a horse race or on the card that comes out of the faro-box or on the odd-or-even fall of the. dice; New York World. MnaUkSKaVS FORE FOOD LAW. UaaWftt. The Nebraska Legislature of 1907, in fulfillment of the Republic State Platform, apoa which it was elected, enacted into .law & F. Number 64, known as the Pare Food Law. This act designates the Governor as Food. Drag aad Dairy CommisBJoaor and aataorisesaiatoapMiatadeaaiyaad 1 f the TUam IiiiibHibib chemist, who are charged with thai eafbroeateat of the law. Joseph W. ' Johasoa was selected as deputy by Governor 8haldon aad E. L. Redfera These gentlemen have vigorously at work and have, great progress ia the enfbrce- it of the law. The law was enacted for the purpose of esUblishing honesty in the Food, Dairy and Drug business in this State. There had grown up a general dissat isfaction, among the milk and cream producers of the State from the feeling that the creameries were not giving the farmers a square deal ia measuring the butter fat ia tbe cream sold. On the other hand, the creameries and milk consumers of this State claimed that some of the-farmers were careless and unsanitary in' the production of their milk and cream and' that much of the product marketed was unfit for use and ought to be prohibited by law from being sold. In answer to this complaint and in order to establish' integrity in measuring ,the butter fat in the cream and to establish cleanli ness in the production of milk and cream, the Pure Food Law provides for a system of inspection which is in tendedto be a check against dishoaeety in cream testing and against the mar keting by farmers of unsanitary jilk and cream. Under this Dairy depart ment of the Pure Food Law there are now four dairy inspectors traveling constantly over the State, visiting cream receiving stations, instructing testers apd samplers f cream. These dairy inspectors are experts in their business, graduates of the Dairy de partment of the State Agricultural college, and are enthusiasts in their line of work. It is a part of their business to repart to the Food Com missioner any cream tester or sampler who is either incompetent or careless or dishonest in his work. There are about 1,700 receiving stations in the State, of which about 140 are testing stations. The Pure Food law in its effort to establish honesty in. foods has in mind three things, adulteration, misrepre sentation and short weight. Much of the adulteration that was in foods a few years ago has been stopped by the National law, but theinventive mind employed .by the manufacturing inter ests is constantly busy discovering new tricks of adulteration, and itis a part of the Nebraska law to look out for these new inventions and to head them off by prosecution and publicity as fast as they appear. The old-fashioned system of hand ling food stuffs in the grocery stores in bulk was unsanitary, for it was not easy for the groceryman to protect the barreled stuff in his store from dust, dirt and general uncleanliness. To meet the demand of the consuming public for cleaner food the package system was invented. The manu facturers saw that by putting op food stuffs into packages they could appeal to the public in behalf of their pack age gbodson the ground that they were more satisfactory .than goods handled in bulk. As soon as the package goods became popular, the factories thought oat and began to practice the short weight trick. They found they could put up a package of oatmeal, for example, that looked like two pounds and that would pass off in the market for two pounds, when in reality there was'less than two pounds in the pack age. This short weight scheme de veloped rapidly, each factory compet ing with its rival .to see which could sell the smallest amount of food for tbe money. To stop this short weight cheat in Nebraska the branding re-1 quirement was put in the Pure Food law, requiring food packages to be labeled with the amount'of the con tents. This feature of the law was resisted strenuously by the representa tives of the food packages before the legislative committee, but the more this provision was resisted by the fac tories the more the legislature was de termined in its.opposition to the short weight trick, and the effect of this ! provision has already worked out a practical reform in butter, cereals and other food stuffs. This provision of the law makes some inconvenience for the retail grocer and has caused con siderable friction between the Food Commission aad the food factories, but the system of honest food branding of food packages in Nebraska is steadily working its way into practical effect throughout the State. 1 Among the other provisions of the Pure Food law in its effort to establish honest dealing and honest measure ment, the clause which required the liquor package to show the character of the goods and the quantity delivered for the money has been strenuously resisted by she big liquor concerns all over the country. NJlany of these large concerns through their .attorneys have made legal arguments before the Food Commissioner to show that the law was uareasonable aad impossible to enforce, bat the saloon keepers of Ne braska ander the stimulus of acoseca tions are hurryiag into compliance with the law. The Food Cnmmamioaar takes the position that und-r the law the asiooa keepsrbehiad the bar when ha, hap oat a bottle.of liquor to his customer most show the customer by the label just how much is ia the bot tle aad the character of .the liquor sold REMEDIES FOR ALL DISEASES.

Leslie's Weekly. RIGHT AND LEFT HANDEDNESS. Matter of .Physical Structure, Accord Jng te an Authority. George M. Gould of Philadelphia says thatt mentality preceded and created structure. It has bee shown that the mechanisms that give the man external validity, speech and writing, are oae-sided. This one-sided differentiation Is progressive through out life. Right-handedness is partially a matter bf'rigoteigbtednesa. In 97 per cent, of children the right eye is the better-seeing eye. If one is right handed the centers for writing and speech must be on the left side and the visual ceaters oa the same side. Pathology follows any attempt to in: terfere with right or left-handedaess. Those persons who demand right handedness of the left-haaded child make him morbid and maladroit. The author gives several very interesting cases of the lifelong crippling of the faculties and mechanism of writing resulting from attempts to make a left handed person learn to use the wrong side of his brain for writing. Medical Record. The Modern Woman. It was in a Lenox avenue subway traia and a very' tired and cross youngster of f6ar, who had evidently spent the day shopping with his, moth1 er. was' keepiag the car in a turmoil by a little pastime of huvow. He sprawled all over hi mother's lap, at 1 the same time keeping up whimper ing cry, "Mamma; mamma, mamma." This west oa aatil an elderly man sit ting next suddenly turned to the child with: "Have you a .father?" The youngster, startled out of his imagi nary grief, stopped crying and nodded his head. "Yes." "Well; for Heaven's sake, call him and give your mother a rest," The boy sat up like a ram rod and never let out another whim per. N. T. Sun. Smuggling Papular. Smuggliag fs still a fairly flourishing Industry In England. According to the annual report, recently Issued, of the commissioners of customs for the year ending last March, "the number of detected attempts to smuggle duti able goods during the past year waa the largest recorded since' 1895. The quantities of tobacco, cigars and spir its seized were less than in the pre ceding year, but there was a consider able Increase in the number of seiz ures and of persons fined, says Home Chat, No fewer than 3,104 persons were fined for smuggling, and the pen alties recovered amounted to $21,99. The tobacco and cigars seized amount ed to 11,222 pounds and the foreign spirits to 82 gallons. Whalebone Worth Million. A century ago, when whalebone was worth no more than ten cents a pound, few vessels brought any home. From 1844 to the outbreak of the civil war the output averaged about 2,80,90 pounds annually, the greatest for one year being 5,892,309 pounds In 1853, and the price Increased to oae dollar a pound. Since I860 there has bee steady decrease I the output. The total amount of whalebone landed in America In the course of the nine teenth century exceeded 90,09,009 pounds, worth nt the present market valuation about 8450,000,000, a sum that would make the possessor one of the richest men In the world.

We are often asked the ahovw question, and our answer has kt variably been that no medicine &at gives satisfactory results could be fraudulent We countf. not afford to sell fraudulent nWdt cines. Our business depends on pleased customers in fact, any "Dusmess does. Therefore, are; would take an enormous risk did we not fulfil every promise made our customers. We are very care ful of what we guarantee, and --- when we do guarantee an article we must know it pretty well what .it contains and how it is made. Wthavc in mind the Rex all line of remedies, particularly Rexall Mucu-Tone, of which we are selling large quantities at this time of the year. Mucu-Tone is one article that we can recommend over our counter and know that ninety-eight per cent of its pur chasers are going to be benefited and will return to .our store pleased customers. Mucu-Tone is a positive cure for internal scrofula or what is coaunoaly called Catarrh. It is without a doubt tin? peer of all tonics for any' one who is suffering from a run-down' condition, can't work, feels constantly tired or safferiag from tbe more plainly described symptoms- of Catarrh-tsuch as stopping of the nose, cold in the head or bad cough." It must be remembered that Ca tarrh is not confined to the nose ' and throat. It usually starts there, but it. leads more often to serious, trouble, particularly tbe wasting of tissues, as in the case of little Miss Dillon, of Albany. iHere is a letter from her father: "My little girl had catarrh so badly that the disease had begun to eat into tbe cartilage of the nose. Snuffs and - instruments tailed to do more than give tem porary relief. I saw tbe adver tisements of Rexall Mucu-Tone, but I could not believe that any thing taken in the stomach could Cure theASore membranes of the nose. However, I took advan tage of your free trial offer and my girl began taking your remedy according to directions. I want to say right here that Mucu-Tone is certainly the greatest medical discovery of the times, and to thank you for the liberal offer that first induced me to give it a trial. Muco-Tone has cured rajr daughter's catarrh completely! The discharge has stopped alto gether, and her breath is as sweet as can be. Again thanking yow Matt. Dillon, 24 N. Swan St, "Albany, N. Y."
