The membrane of the throat

He advises an inexpensive home- j

in less than a day and will stop all :

inflamed membrane in a few days.
Thousands are making this be

one who has catarrh or a cold can

Pour three-quarters of an ounce !
of Mentholizea Arcine into a pint
bottle, then fill the bottle with
water that has been boiled.
Gargle the throat as directed
and snuff or spray the liquid into
the nostrils twice daily. It's a i

and drag yourself around day after day, because your head feels
dull and all the world "looks blue." Blue devils chasing you day and
night! When one feels all out of sorts —nine chances out of ten —it's
due to torpor of the liver. It's the signal that poisons are accumulating
in the system and should be cleaned out at once. This is the time to
take castor oil or that well-known, tiny pellet made up of May-apple,
aloes and jalap, and sold by every druggist as Dr. Pierce's Pleasant
Pellets. Obtain them now and avoid colds, "grip" and sickness.
iTHOUSANDS POISONED
Life Shortened by Uric Add
BrDi.ua BABCOCK.
Most people die eventually of an over-acid condition. If the blood
can be rendered more alkaline, the longer we live. With regular
hours, plenty of water betw'een meals, sensible coarse food and a
chance to get the poisons out of the system, a man will live to be a
hundred. But, unfortunately, our highly nervous way of living brings
increased storage of uric acid in the body. This acts as a poison, and
we suffer from lumbago, aches or pains, rheumatism, gout.
Get rid of this uric acid poison by taking a harmless medicine
called "Anuric" (anti-uric-acid), which throws out the uric acid '
stimulating the kidneys. Drink a pint of hot water a full half h
before moals and take "Anuric" three or four times a day. "Anun
fcan be obtained at almost any drug store.

IN "CAHOOTS,"
| JUDGE BELIEVES
'Anderson Blames Both Oper
ators and Miners For
Conditions
i Indianapolis, Dec. 3. Mine
1 operators and mine workers appear
i to be in "cahoots to bleed the pub
: lie.'' in the opinion of Judge A. B.
\ Anderson, ot the federal district
| court. Judge Anderson, who or
-1 dered the rescinding of the strike
I order, expressed himself to-day in
(he course of examination of Alonzo
. Newcomb, a miner.
Newcomb comes from Blanford,
I Ind., and was before the court on 9
charge of illegal sale of liquor.
Judge Anderson was trying to ob
tain information atfto the mine op
| orators' attitude toward the United
Mine Workers of America.
"Doesn't it seem thaf you are all
in a conspiracy to milk the public?"
Judge Anderson asked.
Newcomb said the mine workers
are paid only 84 cents a ton for the
coal they mine, while they have to
pay the operators $2.20 a ton for
that coal on top of the mine and be
sides have to haul it themselves.
"Ought not all of you come down
all around?" Judge Anderson asked,
and Newcomb said "I guess you are
right."
"Isn't it true that you say the
mine operators get so much that you
want part of their profits?" per
sisted the judge. Newcomb said
this also seemed to' be the case,
whereupon Judge Anderson re
marked that it Appeared as though
both factions in the coal trouble
were in cahoots to bleed the public.
Averages $6 a Day
Newcomb said he averaged about
$6 a day as a coal digger and had
made as much as $lO a day. lie
said his last pay check called for
$52.27 for 14-days work, but that
about $lB had to be taken out of it
for powder and other expenses owed
the mine operator.
When asked why he did not re
turn to work, inasmuch as the mines
were open and the government
would afford protection, Newcomb
said:
"Your honor, it would be all ray
life would be worth to start back
to work. I wouldn't last long, I
don't expect."
Joe Trunko, a Hungarian coal
miner living in Clinton. Ind., who
also was arraigned before Judge
Anderson on a charge of violating
the Heed amendment, said he had
not worked for three weeks be
cause of the strike. He said he did
not know about the injunction for
bidding the strike.
"When they cancelled the strike
order in here." they had their fingers
crossed, didn't they?" asked Judge
Anderson.
"I think so," the defendant re
plied.
"The government knows they did,
doesn't it?" continued the judge.
"It ought to," admitted Trunko.
Owns Home and Auto
Further questioning brought out
the fact that Trunko was married,
had five children, owned liis own
home and an automobile.
"X tell you," said Judge Ander
son, after lie had been given this
information, "working conditions
will have' to be improved for this
man. Why, gentlemen, I can hardly
restrain my emotion when I think
of the condition of this man. And
the whole country is in the fix it is on
account of the condition these men
are in."
Trunko was fined SIOO and costs
for violating the prohibition act.

CLIMATE WHICH IS MILD
I'arn. Brazil. Deo. 3.—• Although
only 8u miles from the equator the
city of Para enjoys perennial climate
of what might be called miid summer.
There is a shower of rain nearly
every afternoon throughout the year,
which together with the welcome'
trade winds blowing in from the At
lantic temper the intense heat of the I
sun and give I'ara a climate that for ;
evenness and equality cannot probab- I
ly be surpassed.
The mornings and evenings are al
ways cool, and the mid-day heat nev
er approaches that of a regular;
August day in New York or Chicago, j
Sunstroke is entirely unknown. There
is no record of a case in the entire |
Amazon Valley. Schoolboys play I
football in the open city spaces dur- j
ing the hottest hours of early after- |
noon and laborers naked to the waist,
toil sweating on the docks in the blaz
ing sunshine without any apparent
ill effects.
Straw hats are worn the Year |
round in Para, and a sun helmet
would be regarded with almost as j
much curiosity on the Avenida da '
Republica here as it would on Fifth
avenue.
The clothes worn by the men are
also a matter of surprise to the for- I
