BITTE
The majority ofthe ills of the human
bo,It/ arise from a derangement of the
Diver, affecting both the stomach and
botrels. In order to effect a cure, it is
necessary to romore the cause. Irregu
lar and Sluggish action of the Bowels,
Headache,Sickness at the Stomach, Vain
in the Back and loins, etc., indicate that
the Liver is at fault, and that nature re
quires assistance to enable this organ to
throw off impurities. »
Pricfcly Asti Bitters are especially
earn pounded for this purpose. They are
j mild tn their action and effective as a
eure ; are pleasant to the taste Hid taken
easily by both children and adults. Ta
ken according to directions, they are a
safe and plea sa n t eure for Dyspepsia,
General Debility,Habitual Con
stipation, Diseased Kidneys,
etc., etc. As a Blood Purifier they
are superior to any other medicine;

readiest and most brilliant debat

THE post OFFICE APPROPRIATION
The Douse on Saturday adopted
ï he report ot the Conference coin
mittce on the Post Office appro
priatiou bill. A number of mem
bers were very decided in tlie ex
New York the benefit of this ser
vice, the appropriation should In
struck out ailtogether. Mr. Robe
sou, in the course ot his teiuaiks,
said very distinctly that he voted
for the conference report wiili
the nuderstauding that the other
great cities besides New York
were not to be deprived of their
share of the appl'opii 141011, anu 11
the Postmaster General should
do this he would violate the spi
rit and intent of the law making
lhe appropriation JVJr. Springet
said the appropriation for tin
great railroads bnt he did uot
add that two of the great rail
roads only have, up to iliis time,
had had any appreciable share of
the api>fopi tation. Mr. Robesons
remarks were drawn out by a
1 ■tatemeut ot Mr. Caswell that the
pression that, unless the other
great cities wcie to share with
i
| Postmaster General
did not iu
tend to make any new starting
points, but to hold on to N«-w
York as the great centre ot the
universe.
THE PUBLIC PRINTING.
A new Public Printer has been
appointed, and this is a local
event iu Washington that is cou
sidcred of quite muclbimport.iuce
by fifteen hundred employes,
and thiiee that number
that is dependent upon them,
as the appointment of a cabinet
officer. „Important changes are
expected in the manage incut aud
personal of the office. »Since tin* |
wav. the public public priutiug j
has cost the Government not less
tuan $54,000,000. ïae Govern
nn-nt Printing Office is by tar the
........jlioin
largest establishment ol lhe kind
iu the world, and a more caretul
management ot it would save
more than a million annually to
the Government. The main tea
Min of the outlay lies in .the tact
j () j t [ !t . practice of CollgleSS Ol der
iug the printing of voluminous
and utteily worthless documents
that find their way, by the cart
ioadsj to the pulp mills.
THE WHISKEY LOBBY

hoverng about congress for,
weeks urging the passage «t a

lime that whiskey can remain in

best known to wealthy lobbyists,
thes have made such headway
that thev claim a nu jority in the
Semite in favor of their bill. The
effect of this measure will be to
to reduce very seriously the reve
ones of the'Government. I« i s
