DIFFER ON CANAL BID.
Taft Wants to Advertise Again; Roose
velt Doesn't
Washington, Feb. 1. Officials are
becoming more and more skeptical of
the idea that the canal will be built by
contract. So far the commission is not
ready to give the contract to William J.
Oliver, and if his proposition falls
through none of the official. entertain
much "hope that it will be possible to
Piake an acceptable arrangement. Pres
ident Roosevelt and Secretary Taft are
deeply concerned oer the situation.
Moreover, they are understood to be of
different opinions as to what should be
done.
Mr. Taft wants to readvertiso for
bids, but the President is not inclined!
to do this. Mr. Taft believes that one :
more effort to get bids that are nuitable
would relieve tl.e admtnitration of alt
criticism should it later be decided that
the government should' build the canal.

Washington, Feb. 1- It may be stated
by authority that neither the question

The programme is regarded as closed at

Kvery effort, however, will be made to
hae the conference consider the two sub

plished only by the act of the delegatus
themselves, propeitly supported by their
principals. It will require an affirmative
vote of the conference to take up for die
ciusion any new subject beyoud those
contained in the programme. ,

"Last year, after having my little

I resorted to the Cuticura Remedies,
and was so well pleased with the almost
Instantaneous relief afforded that we
discarded the physician's prescription
and relied entirely on the Cut antra Soap,

When we commenced with the Cuti

covered with running eoree. In about
six weeks we had her completely well,
and there has been no recurrence of
tb trouble.
"In July of this year a Httlo boy In

with poison oak, and in twenty-four
fcoura tiia hands and arms wore a mass
of torturing sores. We used only the
Cuticuri Remedies, washing his hands
and arms with the Cuticura Soap, and
anointing them with tho Cuticura Oint

Resolvent.!. 'In about throe weeks his

A NATION OF CRIPPLES .
RHEUMATISM BEYOKD CONTROL
The Only Hope to Rheumatic Suffers Is
Uric-0 Treatment
If rheumatism continues to spread as
it has in the past few years, it would
seem as though we would before long be
come a nation of cripples. Tho terrible
destructiveness of this disease is ap
parent on every side of us. Almost nine
out of ten of the cripples one meets haJ
their affliction brought on by Rheuma
tism. How many thousands more there
are that are hopelessly bed-ridden, and
whom we never so. Rheumatism from
the very nature of the disease, can
never cure itself and if neglected, is
bound to grow worse rather than better.
If you ever have any twinges of Rheu
matism go to the Red Cross Pharmacy
right here in Barre and get a bottle of
Uric-O, the wonderful new Rheumatic
Specific. It will cure you and it is the
only treatment in the world that will
cure you permanently and ' thoroughly.
Uric-0 cures by Its direct action on the
muscle, blood and kidneys. It seeks
out the poisonous Uric aud Rheumatic
Acid and drives it from the system and
it is only a treatment of such a nature
that will ever cure Rheumatism. Lini
ments and plasters only serve to Jrivs
it from one spot to another. Tbey never
euro Rheumatism; because it is primar
ily a blood disease, and until the blood
is cleared from the poison, a cure can
not take place, ' ; .
There never was a ease of Rheuma
tism that Uric-0 could not cure and you
should not put off taking it because it
is in the end by far the cheapest method.
You can test"Uric-0 free of charge if
you wish. Just cut out this advertise
ment and send it to the Smith Drug Co.,
Syracuse, N. Y., and state that you have
never used Urio-0 and would like to
try it. They will send you a free sam
ple which you can test and try free of
charge.

Mr. A. F. Hunter, who Is one of the

proved a decidedly profitable thing. The
bones are rich in animal matter, and con
tain lime of which tho egg shells are

will lay a largo number of ep-gs than if
fed no bone. Not only will they lay
a larger number of eggs, but the epgs
will be stronger-bodied, will be better
eggs, and if incubated will have better
and stronger chicks." C. S. Page, of

Fee nearhfnsr Effect of Georsria'e
Child Iabor Uw.
Child labor hns been given a knock
out blow by the legislation receutly
pnsRed by the Georgia general assem
bly, which has just gone Into elect,
aays a dlsp;tch from Columbua.
. Georgia has cotton mills and man
ufacturing establishments scattered
from one end of the state to the oth
er, and there are thousands of people
affected by this legislation. , ,
That schools may be built for the
thousands of new pupils who will be
furnished by the mills, the child labor
law. In Its main features applying to
children tindor fourteen years old, will
not go Into eSfect before Jan. 1, 1908,
though there Is a provision which must
lie compiled with la 1907 as a pre
requisite to the employment of such a
child. Any child socking work In a
fuctory after Jan. 1. 1903, must show
that be or she has attended school at
least twelve weeks during 1907, six
weeks of which must have been con
secutive. ' ' '
There arc, however, other provisions
of the hill which go Into effect imme
diately. No child under tea years of
hge shall be employed In any factory
In any circumstances. No child un
der twelve years of age shall be em
ployed In a factory unless a widowed
mother or disabled father Is dependent
upon the labor of the child for support.
If such extreme conditions exist, affi
davits from the ordinary of the county
must be kept on file In the mill ofSce
certifying full particulars of each case.
Illiteracy among the cotton mill op
eratives of the south Is so common
that its absence Is noticeable, Scarce
ly any of the children in Georgia ever
have attended school. The result Is
that today throughout the state there
are hundreds of grown workmen who
cannot read or write. Under the pro
visions of the new low thousands of
children under fourteen years of nge
will have to leave the mills for at
least twelve weeks of school, that they
may gain admittance as operatives
In 1003.
Columbus, with a string of large cot
ton mills extending three miles nloDg
the Chattahoochee river, will be one of
the cities most affected by the new
legislation. Over D00 children will be
forced out of the mills there, and the
result will be better wages for mill
labor.
