From the Various County
Cupid ie on a Strike.
Evidently there is lull in the
matrimonii! market At least County
Clerk Cheshire, the obliging official
who is yer ready to fill rrdcri for
Don Cupid is finding that there are no
requests for the important document,
these days. It has been a long time
since there has been such a quiet
spell of this kind. He thinks that
possibly the financial flurry may have
something to do with it. Tbsre has
not been a single license iisued for
the past two weeks.
Voter Still Registering-.
Interest in the approaching pri
maries seem to be somewhat on the
increase and voters of all parties are
finding their way into the office of
the county clfrk, where they are hav
ing their names entered in the regis
tnr. The Oonrlei- reoorter took a
glanoe over the books, with a view
to aicertaining how the voters were
entering their party affiliations, with
the result that he found the republi
cans lining up in fine shape. For the
flmt Mven weeks' retiitration there
were 228 republican. 64 democrats,
22 socialists. 15 non-partisans and six
prohibitionists.

Proper Treatment Far Burns.
In case of burns-death may be due,
first, to asphyxia; second, to shock,
and, third, to aeptlcsemia.
The medical man seldom (eta to the
cms in time to treat the first condi
tion, th second 1 essentially a gen
eral condition, whHe the whole success
In preventing the third depends upon
the immediate local treatment It Is
therefore the laat condition which must
be considered here. Among the public
it is a generally accepted Idea that the
thing to do In the case of a burn is to
duet flour over It or to sorer It with
oil, and, Indeed, even In some compar
atively late text books on surgery a
mixture known as "Carron oil" I ad
vocated. The use of such application cannot
be too strongly deprecated, and, Indeed,
If the lay mind could be taught that
the best thing to put on a burn before
the doctor la called Is a hot compress,
which should contain some boraclc
acid If there ia any In the house. It Is
probable that the majority of deaths
due to septicaemia after burns would
be prevented.
For the whole aim and object of the
local treatment Is to preveut sepals.
Flour and olive oil may be soothing
and may allay the pain, but there Is
no antlHeptlc property lu them; rather
they are excellent culture media for
bacteria. Louden Hospital.

INVITE A TEST
Demaray Aaks Catarrh Sufferera
to try Hyomei on Hla Guarantee
Demaray invite all who suffer from
any form of catarrhal troubles to get
a Hyomei outfit from them with the
absolute guarantee that if it doe not
give perfect satisfaction, the money
ill be refunded upon request. '
There is no other treatment for
datarrh that in any way resembles
Hyomei, none that iilves such quick
coratlv result and laatiug satisfac
tion, no medicine that can tali its
place, none that can be sold on a
guarantee like this, to refund the
money'unlnss it cur .
Catarrh is a germ dlsesse and can
be oured only by breathing Hyomei,
so that the most remote air cells in
the nose, throat and lungs are'reaobed
by it antiseptic healing powers. In
this way all catarrhal germ are
killed, the irritated mucous mem
brane is healed and catarrh 1 driven

"Tax the billboards out of existence"
Is the slogan of the American Civic as

ton Rogers Woodruff, the secretary of
the association, even goes so far as to
declare In favor of a boycott of all
firm who nse thst style of advertising
believing It the most effective method
yet proiKMed, and a Tacoma Improve
ment club has slready taken step to
secure such action on the part of Its
members. This Is a more drastic meas
ure of reform than that which merely
proposes s tax upon blllboarda, for Its
general adoption would result in rating
