Governor Wilson of Kentucky evi
dently disagrees with those who think
that it U wise to so arrange matters
that the newspapers of the country
will have to proceed with extreme
caution in discussing public affair.
He declares that the only hope of re
lief from the criminal conditions
which afflict the commonwealth of
Kentucky lies in arousing a strong
and enlightened public sentiment
which can only be done by a free and
untrammeled press. Ex.

Now that Professor M. V. O'Shea
of the University of Wisconsin has
told the Illinois Congress of Mothers
that boys in the schools "suffer for
the lack of something rough," and
that women teachers cause effiminacy,
there probably will be a great lay
ing on of sticks at our institutions of
learning. But, after all there is no
thing very new in what Frotessor U -Shea
says. Soloman said something
very similar, though he courteously
refrained from lingling out women
teachers. Ex.

A recent consular report says that
plague has again made its appearance
in Bombay but that the health depart
ment is doing its utmost to keep down
the disease- To this end about 10,000
rats are being killed weekly. Perhaps
the remedy may prove efficacious,
but the fact that in India most of the
victims of the plague are on the bor
der land of starvation suggests that
a little better feeding would do more
to arrest the ravages of the disease
than rat killing- Ex.
THE LIVE WIRE.
A young woman in Columbus, O.,
was electrocuted a few days ago
fcrnnirli her umbrella comine in con-
----- o - -
tart with a teleohone wire. A dozen
persons who attempted to remove
her body were hurled to the ground
by the shock. The frequency of ac
cidents caused by exposed wires in
cities may have the effect of hasten
ing the day when they will all be or
dered underground; but the American
people suffer a long while before tak
ing steps to defend themselves. Ex-
GUARDING HEALTH.
A committee has been appointed
by the Association of Life Insurance
Presidents to consider the proposi
tion to contribute financial support
to the campaign of education now
being conducted by the Commttee
of One Hundred on National Health.
It has been urged that by the adopt
ion of practical hygienic reforms the
span of life may be increased fifteen
years. If that result can be achieved
it will pay the insurance companies
splendidly to assist in the campaign,
and no one will have more occasion
to rejoice over that fact than those
who by the prolongation of their lives
benefit the companies who are insur
ing them- Ex.

According to recent revelations the
Fish combine is not a local or State
affair, but it has secured a grip on
the fisheries of the Great Lakes and
the Atlantic Coast as well as those
of the Pacific seaboard. On this coast
it forces fishermen to sell their catch
of salmon, bass, shad, halibut and oth
er food fishes at from 2 to 3 cents per
pound and it makes consumers pay
from 15 to 25 cents per pouna. its
baneful effects on the fisheries ot tne
Lakes and the Atlantic seaboard
are manifested by the steps taken
at Chicago a few days ago to proceed
against it as an unlawful trust creat
ed for and conducting its business in
restraint of trade and in violation of
the interstate commerce law. The in
fluence of the trust on the California
ronsumer in resnect to Eastern fish
inportations is illustrated by the fact
that, before it was organized, nnnan
haddies. for example w.ere retailed
in the bay cities at 12 1-2 cents per
pound, and they are now quoted at
17 1-2 cents per pound. Oakland

PERSGRIPTIQN FILLED
OFTEN
MANY PERSONS HERE TELL
OF BEING GREATLY BENE
FITTED BY THE HOME PRE
SCRIPTION AND LOCAL
DRUGGISTS ARE KEPT BUSY.
That the readers of this paper ap
preciate advice when given in good
faith is plainly demonstrated by the
fact that one well-known local phar
macy supplied the ingredients for the
"vegetable prescription" many times
within the past two weeks. The an
nouncement of this simple, harmless
mixture has certainly accomplished
much in reducing the great many
cases of kidney complaint and rheu
matism here, relieving pain and mis
ery, especially among the older popu
lation, who are always suffering more
or less with bladder and urinary
troubles, backache and particularly
rheumatism.
Another well-known druggist asks
us to continue the announcement of
doing so much real good here, he
continues, that it would be a crime
not to do so. It can not be repeated
too often, and further states many
cases of remarkable cures wrought.
The following is the prescription,
of simple ingredients, making a
harmless, inexpensive compound,
which any person can prepare by
shaking well in a bottle: Fluid Ex
tract Dandelion, one-half ounce; Com
pound Kargon, one ounce; Compound
Sarsaparilla, three ounces. Any first
class drug store will sel! this small
amount of each ingredient, and the
dose for adults is one teaspoonful to
be taken after each meal and again
at bedtime. There is enough here to
last for one week, if taken according
to directions. Good results will be
aparcnt from the first few doses.
around aagin, much to the surprise of
his many friends, who understand
that it would take about ten days for
his recovery, from the fall he re

The llwaco Fraternity Rebekuh
Lodge No. 78, entertained a large
number of guests, Wednesday even
ing in thevFraternity Hall. Progres
sive whist was the game of tne even

aged to indulge in various other
games. The following persons were
awarded prixes, the best ltuly player,
Mrs. Ed. Hawkins, a sterling silver
cuticle knife; Chas. Seamore the best
gentleman player, a silver stamp case;
Gladys Graham, a rattle and Forest
Heath a pig's tail, as booby prim.
At the conclusion of the game a
lunch consisting of cake, candy and
punch, was served in the banquet
room. The decorations were in pink
and green crepe paper .draped from
the center of the hall to the corners.
In the banquet room, the decorations
were similar, with an addition of
ferns and roses for the tables .mak
ing the effect very beautiful. The
committee on arrangements was as
(ollows; Mildred Morden. F.leanore
Heath and Ida Williamson and the
sueress of the nartv. was nartlv due
to a dilig nt effort on their part. The
ituests dispersed at midnight after
having spent a very"pleaant evening.
One Ikiuton of Chinook, has been
engaged for the past week in repair

George Ross and Ralph Grabble,
returned home Thursday, from the
N'asel, where they have been employ
ed in a logging camp for the past
few weeks. In the future they expect
to find work nearer llwaco.
BUSINESS MANNERS.
Orison Swett Mardcn, writing in
"Success Magazine." asks and answers
two very pertinent ii("tions:
Why is it that many of the cash
iers, bookkeepers, bank tellers cor
poration clerks, and people who serve
the public through glass windows or
across counters, are so pert and un
obliging? Why is it necessary to make
a customer feel that he is a nuisance?
Public officials, clerks, and attend
ants in our public buildings and mu
nicipal offices arc proverbially curt,
short, and snappy. Though you arc
paying them through your taxes for
their services, they make you feel
that they are doing you a great favor
by giving you what belongs to you
and by doing what you are paying
them for doing.
How nuicklv you notice the atmo
sphere of a business house a great
department store, for example.
There is as much difference between
the feeling you have in walking
through two crcat establishments as
that you experience in talking with
the different heads of these houses.
In one, refinement, courteousness,
consideration for others, a feeling of
good will, permeates the very atmo
sphere. You have a feeling that ev
ery employee in the place would be
glad to serve you if he could, and is
anxious to please, whether you buy
or not. There is evidence that the
employer thinks a great deal of the
character as well as the ability of his
clerks, and that manners and deport
mcnt are never left out of considera
tion in their selection. In another
house, only a few blocks away, you
arc ill at ease. Carelessness, indiffer
ence, and chilliness pervade the place.
You do not feel at home. There is a
lack of harmony, a sense of antagon
ism in the atmosphere. The em
ployees make vou feel that they are
doing you a favor in letting you see
the goods, or giving you the oppor
tunity to purchase them with your
money.
The man who thinks he is going to
make a fortune without considering
the man at the other end of the bar
gain is very short-sighted, In the
long run the customer's best good is
the seller's best good also; and, oth
cr things equal, the man succeeds best
who satisfies his customers best and
whose customers not only come back,
but always bring others with them.

ECZEMA A GERM DISEASE
Myriad of Microscopic Animal In
fest the. Skin of the sutierer.
When the kin of an ecacma suf
ferer itches and bums in uimmi
agony, do you know what is going on
within the pores oi that skiiu
Myriads of microscopic animals are
gnawing at the flesh, breaking down
the line cell and causing festers, thick
scales and that terrible itch. The
germs multiply faster tlnvn Nature
can throw them off.
Now, there is only one way to get
rid k'f these germs they must be
killed in their lodging places. Dos
ing the stomach or trying to cure
the blood will not, of course, kill the
germs, and that is why all the blood
remedies fail In eciema; that is alo
why salves which do not penetrate
can do no permanent good.
Ordinary oil of wintcrgreen prop
erly compounded in liquid form will
penetrate the pores of the kin and
kill the ecxeina germs. If properly
mixed with thymol, glycerine and
other ingredients (as in D. D. 0.
Prescription) this wash will miua up
the tissue of the skin ; loinote its
healthy growth, giving Nature
chance, while killing the germs faster
than they can multiply.
