From Cuticura ^tuncdlcs.
"About thc latter part of July my whole
body began to itch. I did not take much
notice of it at first, but it began to get
worse all the time, and then 1 began to
get uneasy and tried all kinds of baths and
other remedies that were recommended
for skin humors, but 1 became worse all
the time. My hair began to fall out and
my scalp itched all the time. Especially
at night, jus4 as soon as I would get in
bed and get warm, my whole body would
begin to itch, and my finger nails would
keep it irritated, and it was sot long be
fore I could not rest night or day. A
friend asked me to try the Cuticura lieme
dies, and 1 did, and the first application
helped rne wonderfully. For about Tour
weeks 1 would take a hot bath every night

Thc operators of Illinois, Indiana

tion of the conference followed.
Operators of western Pennsylvania
and the miners of the four States
voted for the proposal. Following
adjournment, National Secretary W.
B. Wilson,-?of the Mine Workers,
said :
"There is no likelihood of anything
further being done towards a settle-',
ment. This means suspension of
work. The national, convention of the
miners will meet Friday morning.
The principle business will be to de
termine a general i !icy. The ques
tion especoally to be considered is
whether thc organization will permit
miners to work iu districts and mines
where the advance is offered."
F. L. Robbins and ether operators
rpresenting about one-third -of the
coal production of western Pennsyl-;
vania, Ohio, Indiana aud Illinois, of
fered to pay the advance and urged
the miners to accept this' advance and
continue work in their mines- even
though the other mines in the four
States should be idle. The conven
tion of miners will decide whether to
permit this or to ' demand that all
,miners suspend work until all have
been paid the advance.

would agree to pay thc scale of 1903
or its equivalent for a period of two
years. This is an advance of 5.55 per

DOINGS IN CONGRESS
What is Being Done Day by Day By
the National House and Senate.
Bate Bill Honest.
Wheu the Senate met Mr. Culbert
ton presented and liad thc. clerk to
read a memorial from the Cattle
Raisers' Association of Texas, urging
the passage of the railroad rate bill
as it came from the House. Thc let
ter was accompanied by a letter from
S. H. Cowan, attorney for the asso
ciation, in which he said that the rail
roads have in the past six years in
creased rates on cattle shipments io
thc extent of $18 a car, causing a
total outlay of $10.000,000 above the
amount that it would have been nec
essary to pay under the old prices.
The petition urged the Senate to re
sist efforts to seriously amend the bill
as mere subterfuges on part of op
ponents of the bill.
Thc following bills were passed:
Amending the law requiring1 lights
on rafts so as to make it apply to
rafts in tow.
Authorizing the erection of a dam
across the Choctaw Hatche river, in
Dale county, Ala.
The conference report on the con
sular reorganization bill was agreed
to .without discussion.
All in Publics Interest.
When the railroad rate bill was
taken up, Mr. Clay addressed the
Senate, saying that he not cousider
the principle point' of controversy a
serious one. He had heard charges
that both the House and the Knox
bills were drawn in the interest of
the railroad, but the facts, he de
clared, were convincing that such was
not the case. He then traced the his
tory of the House bill, saying that it
owed its origin to the inter-State
commerce commission and had been
accepted by the entire membership of
the House committee, Republican and
Democrats alike had passed thc
House with practical unanimity. The
bill might iioi be perfect, but he was
satisfied that it had received only
honest consideation. So, too, lie was
satisfied that the Knox, the Tillman
and Culbertson bills had all been
drawn in the interest of the people.
He discussed the question of a court
review of the orders of '.he int?r
State commerce commission, saying
that if under the House bill the regu
larity of the commission 's orders only
was contested, the carrier would be
deprived of the right lo contesting a
rate fixed.
Should Concede Review.
Mr. Clay declared that of it was
the intention to permit a review of
the commission's finding, the right
should be conceded in the bill.
"Why not say so directly in the
bill and get over the controversy,"
he said "I believe that review ought
to be permitted, but I believe that the
review ought to be confined to the
question as to whether the rate fixed
in constitutional. Thc court should,
not bc authorized to go into thc whole
case."
Mr. Tillman and Mr. Fulton asked
why, if the review privilege was to be
confined to the constitutional privi
lege, any provision of the kind was
necessary, and Mr. Clay replied that
he would agree with them if there
were nothing in the bill as it stands
"on the' subject of review* but that in
view of the text of the bill he thought
it should be amended so as to author
ize the courts to say. whether, the
rates fixed.^werc confiscatory.
Mr. Clay referred to the differences
of opinion ^between eminent lawyers
when the income tax measure was be
fore Congress.
Mr. Tillman said it was no wonder
lawyers were "befuddled" on that
measure, because the Supreme Court
had been on both sides.
In the House.
The House adopted thc conference
report on the consular reform bill.
April 10 was agreed upon as the
date when debate on thc pure food
bill shall commence, to continue ai
least two days.
Consideration of the legislative, ex
excutive and judicial bill was resum
ed, and when an amendment was of
fered to the amount appropriated for
traveling and other expenses of confi
dential agents of thc Department of
thc Interior, Mr. Tawney of Minne
sota, said he was opuosed lo creating
a secret service bureau for the In
terior Department.
Mr. Gaines of Tennessee said it
was an outrage on the part of the ap
propriations committee not to give
the Secretary of the Interior what ne
needed fo carry on the work of "run
ning down the wilderness of land
thieves in the West."
Mr. Mann, of Illinois, said that the
, Secretary of the interior had been
most active in ferreting Jami frauds.
He said (replying to an intimation of
Mr. Tawney thal Secretary Hitch
cock hail "impulsively'' asked for
$10,000 when he needed $20,000) :
"Impulsively! With his blood ns
cold ns a fish, he could not impul
sively reduce his . just needs. The
Secretan* is a cold-blooded man and
it is through this very noture of his
that he has kept Hie public domain
from being robbed outright. No, it
was thc ice waler that was poured
down-his back by the appropriations
committee that kept him from tell
ing the real needs of the service.
It would bc a crime not lo support
tho Secretary of the. Interior in his
brave fight against powerful inllueu
ces. and we will be held responsible
if we do not give him wbal he
needs."
Mr. Williams of Mississippi, who
had offered the amendment increas
ing the amount appropriated for con
fidential agents of the Interior De
partment from $10.000 lo $20,000,
said the Secretary of the Interior had
stated that bis agents had "run
down" a man in California who had
..gobbled" up 2(i?,000 acres of the
public domain .and it was for the
pmpose of looking after this case, as
well ns oilier.-. I lint I he additional

The published statements of a nu m
ber of coffee importers ami roasters in
dicate a "wnspy" feeling towards .us
for daring to say that cottee is harmful
to a percentage of the people.
A frank public discussion of the sub
ject is quite agreeable to us and can
certainly do no harm: on Ihe contrary
when all the facts on both sides of any
question are spread before the people
they can thereupon decide and act In
telligently.
Give the people plain facts and they
will take care of themselves.
Wc demand facts in this coffee dis
cussion anti propose to sec that the
facts arc brought clearly before the
people.
A number of coffee importers and
roasters have joined a movement to
boom coffee and slop the use of l'os
j tum Food Coffee aud in their, news
paper statements undertake to deceive
by false assertions.
Their first is that coffee is not harm
ful.
We assert that one in every three
coffee users has some form of incipient
or chronic disease; realize for one mo
ment what a terrible menace to a na
tion of civilized people, when one kind
of beverage '-ripples the energies and
health of one-third the people who
use it.
We make the assertion advisedly and
suggest that the reader .secure his own
proof by personal Inquiry among coffee
users.
Ask your coffee drinking friends If
lliey keep free from any sort of aches
mid ails. You will be startled at the
percentage and will very naturally seek
to pince Hie cause of disorder on some
thing aside from ?:offee. whether food,
inherited tendencies or something else.
Go deeper in your search for facts.
If your friend admits occasional neu
ralgia, rheumatism, heart weakness,
stomach or bowel trouble, kidney com
plaint, weak eyes, or approaching ner
vous prostration induce him or her to
make ?. ? experiment of leaviug off
coffpe for 10 days and using Postum
Fcod Coffee, and observe the resuit, lt
will startle you and give your friend
something to think of; Of course. If

Measuring Clothes,
When one comes to industrial and
commercial uses,- the list o? uses of
photography is endless. An ingenious
German gentleman now supplants the
tailors measurer and measures a man
for a suit of clothes by photographs.
The latest improvement in the phono
graph is a system by which a photo?
graphic film records the motion of
a sensitive flame, and the variations
in intensity in thc band thus obtained
are made to cause variations in a
telephone circuit, reproducing the
original sounds much more clearly
than by former methods. The tun
nel builder and railroad contractor
not only keep in touch with the prog
ress of the work, the conditions, and
the effects of blasting, but provide
against damage suits by ''before and
after" views. In many factories sam
ple books are made photographically,
showing exact construction, design,
wood finish. One might go on indefi
nitely, but enough has-been outlined
to give some hint of the part the
camera plays in every material
branch of human activity.-World's
Work.
Meteors Buried in Cellar. -
Excavations for a cellar in Whit
man has revealed two meteor? weigh
ing about 600 pounds each. They had
been burled for a number of years
and were torpedo shaped. They have
been examined by scientists who con
firm the belief that they are real me
teors.

says "I can't quit" you will have dis
covered one of the slave? of the coffee
importer. Treat such kiudly, for they
seem absolutely powerless to stop the
gradual but sure destruction of body
and health.
Nature has a way of destroying a
part of the people to make room for the
stronger, lt is the old law of "the sur
j-vlval ot the fittest" at work, and the
j victims are many.
i We repeat the assertion that coffee
j does harm many people, not nil, but au
army largo enough to appall the fnves

The next prevarication of the coffee
importers and roasters ls their state
ment that Postum Food Coffee is made
of roasted peas, heans or corn, and
mixed with a low grade of coffee and |
that it contains no nourishment.
We have previously offered to wager I
S100.000.00 with them that their state-1
ments are absolutely false.
They have uot accepted our wager
and they will uot.
We will gladly make a present of
j ?25,000.00 to any roaster '-gr Importer of
old fashioned coffee who will accept
that wager.
Free Inspection of our factories and
methods is made by thousands of peo
ple each month and the coffee impor
tera themselves are cordially Invited.
Both Postum and Grape-Nuts are ab
solutely pure and made exactly as
stated.
The formula of Postum and the an
alysis made by one of the foremost
chemists of Booton has been printed on
every package for many years and ls
absolutely accurate.
Now as to the food value of Postum.
It contains the parts of the wheat berry
which carry the elemental salts such
ns lime. Iron, potash, silica, etc.. etc..
used by the life forces to rebuild the
cellular tissue, and this ls particularly
true of the phosphate of potash, also
found lu Grape-Nuts, which combines
in tbe human body with albumen and
this combination, together with water,
rebuilds the worri out gray matter in
the delicate nerve centres all over the
body, and throughout the brain and so
lar plexus.

slowly and surely destroys and does
not rebuild this gray substance so vi

As to Slugging.
"The English play football, and yet
1 don't"slug." That sentence from au
American paper, quoted in these col
umns yesterday, employs the same
verb "to slug," of course, which ap
pears in "slugger," a pugilist, and
"slugging match," a prizefight. It is
own brother to "slog," and akin to
"slay." Absolutely different in origin,
as in meaning, is- -the other verb,^
"slug," own cousin of "slouch" and
"slack," which Spenser used intransi
tively when he wrote- of "slugging all
night in a cabin," and Milton trans?-'
tlvely when he^declared tbat. epis
copacy "worsens and siufgs Gqd
I avail River and placed in the local
? Indian the most learned.v-and seem-.
lng religious of our Ministers." Yet,
I curiously enough-, nobody knows to
which .to the 'two families "slug," a
crudely shaped bullet, belongs. It ls
something with which one slogs? Or
something as heavy as a "slug," or
"sluggish" person?/ Or was lt sup-,
"posed to . resemble the .slug that
crawls in gardens? - London Chron

Please remember we never say ordi
nary coffee hurts everyoue.
Some people usc it regularly and
seem strong enough to withstand its
attacks, but there is misery and diseast
in store for the mau or woman who
persists in its use wlren nature pro-j
tests, by heart weakness, stomach and
bowel troubles, kidney disease, wonk
eyes, or general nervous prostration.
The remedy is obvious. The drug caf?
feine, contained in all ordinary coffee,
must be discontinued absolutely or the
disease will continue iu spite of airy
medicine and will grow worse.
It is easy to leave off the old fash
ioned coffee by adopting Postum Food
Coffee, for in it one finds a pleasing
hot breakfast or dinner beverage that
(has the deep seal browu color, chang?
iug to a rich goldeu brown when good
cream is added. When bolled long
enough (15 minutes) the flavor is not
that of rank Kio coffee but very like
the milder, smooth and high grade
Java, bat entirely lacking the drug ef
fect of ordinary coffee.
Anyoue suffering" from disorders se?
up by coffee- driuking (and there is au
extensive variety) eau absolutely de
pend upon some measure of relief by
; quittlug coffee and using Postum Food
Coffee.
If the disease has not become too
strongly rooted, one can with good rea
son expect lt to disappear entirely in a
reasonable time after the active cause
of tho trouble is removed and the cellu
lar tissue has time to naturally rebuild
with the elemeuts furnished by Pos
tum and good food.
It's only just plalu old common sense, i
Now, with the exact facts before th?
reader, be or she can decide the wise
course, lookiug to health and the pow
er to do things.
If you have auy doubt as to the
cause of any ache or ail you may have,
remember the far reaching telegrams
of a hurt nervous system travel from
heel to bead, and it may be well worth
your while to make the experiment of
leaving off coffee entirely for IO day?v
and using Postum in Its place.
You will probably gather some good
solid facts, wortL more than a gold
mine, for health can make gold-and
sickness lose it. Besides -there's all
the fun. for it's like a'continuous inter
nal frolic to be perfectly well.
