Terms of the Missouri Attor

business In Missouri will resume busi

two or more companies may use the
same rate on risks of like character
so long as there Is no agreement be
tween them as to fixed rates. Had
the companies accepted these terms
two weeks ago they would not be in
the supreme court to" answer to
charges of having violated the anti

Montreal. The fate of the Titanic
was escaped by the steamer Chilton
Range In a collision with an Iceberg
to the . east of the Nawfoundland
banks on its voyage from Hull to
this port, where it has just arrived.
The bow plates of the steamer, a
British freighter, were dented, and
only the fact that it luckily slid off
the ice mass and escaped contact
with any sharp section of the under
lying part of it saved it from disas
ter in Captain Rea's opinion".
The berg was In the track of the
ocean liners, but some distance to
the north and east of the spot where
the Titanic met Us fate. After the
collision the steamer was surrounded
by icebergs, which, . although they
could not be seen because of fog, evi
denced their presence by the echoes
that resounded from their towering
Bides at every blast from the steam
er's whistle.

ocmis voting against the bill and two
Republicans voting for it. Four Pro
gressives supported the measure and
fourteen opposed it, while one Inde
pendent Progressive joined with the
majority.
When Speaker Clark announced the
vote in loud tones that revealed his
satisfaction in the arrival of the day
he long had sought, exuberant Demo
crats hoisted a stuffed Democratic
donkey over the heads of their col
leagues in the rear of the chamber,
a faint Tipple of applause, followed
and the gavel fell qh the first chap'
ter in the history of President Wil
son's extra session of congress.
Republicans and Progressives led
respectively by Representative Mann
of Illinois and Representative Mur
dock'of Kansas, protested to the last
against the measure, the lowest tariff
bill ever written, and proclaiming, as
the Democratic avalanche bowled
them over, the virtues of differing
tariff commission plans.
Republicans who voted for the bill
were Carey and Stafford of Wiscon
sin. Democrats who opposed It were
Broussard, Dupre, Lazaro and Mor
gan of Louisiana, on account of the
schedule reducing sugar 25 per cent

WHO SUFFERED
From , Headache, Backache,
Dizziness and Nervousness,
. Restored to Health by
Lydia E. Pinkham'a -Vegetable
Compound.
Lawrence, Kana. " A year ago I was
Buffering from a number of ailments. I
always had pain and
was irregular. Dur
ing the delay I suf
fered a great deal
with headache, back
ache, dizziness, fev
erish spells, nervous
ness and bloating; '
I had been married
nearly three years. .
I took Lydia E. Pink
ham's Vegetable
Compound -and now
I feel better than I have for years. I
recommend Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege
table Compound to all who suffer as I
did." Mrs. M. Zeuner, 1045 New Jer-(
Bey Street, Lawrence, Kansas.
Montana "Woman's Case.
Burns, Mont. "Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound cured me of awful
backache which I had suffered with for
months. I was so weak I could hardly do
my work and my head and eyes ached all
the time. Your Compound helped ma
in many ways and is a great strength
ened I always recommend it to my
friends and tell them what a grand med
icine it is for women. You may use my
name for the good of others." Mr.
John Francis, Burns, Montana.
The makers of Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound have thousands ot
such letters as those above they tell
the truth, else they could not have been
obtained for love or money. This medi
icine is no stranger it Las stood the
test for years.
NOT YET A HOUSEHOLD WORD
Kill Files.
Kill flies and kill them early. Kill
files and save babies.
A year ago, flies were known as
filthy, foul-feeding nuisances, which
carried germs of typhoid fever, and
of Intestinal diseases which destroy
thousands of Infants every summer.
Now, the black Indictment Is In
creased. Since "fly-time" began last
spring, the world has learned that the
dreaded Infantile paralysis la spread
by these buzzing pests.
The fly is one of the few Inexcus
able things on earth. Kill him.
You can't tell by the load a man Is
carrying where he got It.
IT'S HARD TO WORK
It's torture to work with a lame, aching
back. Get rid of it. Attack the cause.
Probably it's weak kidneys.
Heavy or confining work is hard on
the kidneys, anyway, and once the kid
neys become inflamed and congested,
the trouble keeps getting worse.
The danger of running into gravel,
dropsy or Bright' disease is serious.
Use Doau's Kidney Pills, a fine remedy
for backache or bad kidneys.

Rising Young Journalist Found There
Were Places Where His Fame Had .
Not Been Heralded.
Louis Brownlow was born In what
may be described as the backwoods
down south. In the course of time he
straightened his plumage, flapped his
wings, and sailed out luto the cold -and
dreary world to collect for him-'
self finance and fame. He landed on
a newspaper In a Bouthern city, and ,
made so good on his job that his ar- '
tides were plastered under his sig
nature across the front page of his'
Journal every day. .After several .
mouths he went back home. So far
as he was able to- determine he was
a sunburst on the horizon of journal
ism, and fame had hung about his
form ail the lights and illuminations
possible. "Louis" asked one of the "
old men at the grocery store, speak
ing with a pronounced drawl and ca
ressing his long, thin whiskers, "what
be your line of endeavor?" "The
newspaper business," replied Brown
low, distinctly proud. "Well, Louis,"
pursued the patriarch, "bo you a-sell-ln'
of the papers or a-settlu' of the
type?"
