As every one known, th ways an' mean committee of the present house la now hard at work preparing a, tariff nwasure. The member of that commit tee have all been re-elected to the next houfie, and It la custom to continue them on the vme commute. Hence the new ways and means -committee vrill "have the une make-up aa at ptva ent, and the work of drafting the bill will not be Interrupted. The bill will be presented In the house ver' shortly after that body is organ ised, and the discussion of Its provisions will be promptly begun. How long ft line this will take cannot be predicted; but tho Republican majority in uie housw Is fully alive to Uh need of prompt relief, and we may exxot to see tho Mil passed and sent to the sen ate by the end of April, if nt arlier. The senate Is the weak spot. Tlu free ilv.r .n:it,M-s mav make a combine to hold up" the tariff bill unless a free silver rider Is n'ldid: but at present It Joea not seem possible to pivvent the passage of this bill. In the tlrst place. the silver senators know that no five silver bill can pass the house, and that, even If ft did, President MoKinley would unhesitatingly veto It. The most of them are protectionism, ana ) will, we are assured, pass the tariff measure without any futile attempt to do something for silver." So It eeoms reasonably certain that the tariff bill will become a law In time to go Into operation with the beginning of the new flscal year, on July 1. jFREE TO EVERY MAN THE METHODS OF A ukmi' TKKATMKNT FOR WEAKNKSS OP MEN.

It to not fair to attribute the recent eold wave to the WHson tariff law, but it is, fact that It Is responsible for the condition of many poor people who are unprepared for such bitter weather.

Feb. 28, 1S96. Mr. J. George Suhrer, Druggist, City: Dear George: Please send a bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. I would not feel easy if I know- there was nnne of this valuable remedy in the house. I have given it a fair teat and consider it one of the very best reme dies for croup that I have ever found. One dose has always been sufficient, al though I use it freely. Any cold my children contract yields very readily to this medicine. I can conscientiously recommend it for croup and colds In children. Tours respectfully, GEO. E. WOLFF, Sold by Estes-Conn Drug Co. That the party alignment of the American people is undergoing a change is shown by the, position of Sen ator McEnery, of Louisiana, who will take his seat in the United States sen ate cn March 4. Judge McEnery is a Demccrat, but desires to be counted among the friends of protection to American Industries. He has recently defined his position on this Issue, and says that, although he believes the tariff should never be made the prin cipal Issue, he shall vote for reasonable schedules, which will at once be suffi cient for revenue, and conservative of American labor. This is a gain of tw o votes to the protective forces in the senate, as his predecessor, Blanchard, is a rabid free trader. THE EXTRA SESSION. A paper is responsible for the story that b. lady, When showing a gentle man over her grounds the other day. was asked by him: Does not this 'plant belong to the begonia family?" "The Begonia family!" answered his hostess, bridling up. "Certainly not, sir! It is ours, and always has been. It is well understood that President elect McKUUey intends 'to call an extra session of the Fifty-fifth Congress very hmttv after his Inauguration, to take prompt action on the tariff question dnformajtlon that the 4ate of its convening will be March 25 Ti .ta Hi intention that the members f the present house may have time to sisiu thoir homes, gauge public senti ment on the tariff question, and thus h n.iu tn nr-t nmmotlv and intelligent ly when the extra session begins. tu vii,tir.nii tn I if met need the ma careful consideration.

The new -tariff must produce abundant 'revenue ample for all current needs of the government, and for the sinking fund; for in a few years a large issue of government honrln hiwimeii Irlne. which should be paid off, and the annual Interest bur den reduced as far as possible. Noth ine should be allowed to stand In the wav uf gettirur the nation out of debt as promptly as It can be done. That Is Where the new .tariff measure touches the government's needs. On the side ofj the people its importance can not be magnified. It must restore the con dhjong on which the prosperity of the masses of our mechanics and farmers rest The depression in our great In dust rial Interests ihas resulted in Idle ness to tens of thousands, the dfstrue Uun of their incomes, and to this must be added the enormous shrinkage of values. These tilings have all followed as the direct result of the Watson-Gorman tar Iff law. The loss has been unprecedent ed. It Is believed that there has been a shrinkage of 15,000,000,000 since 1892. How far this shrinkage can be overcome by legislation Is impossible to forecast. But the problem of 'more work, better wages, and consequently an Improve Cupid breaks tub bow at the sight of face full of pimples. Hollow cheeks, sunken eyes, and a sallow complexion will defy hfs best Intentions. Beauty is more than skin deep. The skin is merely the surface on which Is written In plain characters the condition of the body.

By increasing the ability to assimilate nu tirtious food, and by the Infusion of its own ingredients It enriches the blood and so makes solid, healthy flesh. It cures diseases of the lungs, liver, stomach, bowels, skin and scalp, simply because all these diseases spring from the same cause a disordered digestion and consequent impure blood. .. ,1...

TWO ARMIES THE REGULAR AND IRREGULAR! Constipation In Its worst forms, dys peps a, sick headache, biliousness, and derangement of the liver are readily cured by DeWltt's Little Early Risers ! These little pills never gripe. Small jplll, safe pill, best pill. Chas. Rogers ! Druggist. To which wouli you prefer to belong? The regular, undoubtedly. The lrregu las are, admittedly, the most numerous. but they are in a very undesirable dtate of no-discipline. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters will soon remedy this want In a disordered liver and bowels. Bilious ness manifests itself In yellowness of the skin and eyeballs, sour breath, furr ed tongue, morning nausea, discomfort In the vicinity of the liver, vertigo and sick headache. Hosts of people suffer thus. These signs of insubordination to the goverance of health, together with j an Irregular condition of the bowels, are soon regulated by the bitters, w hlch also overcomes malaria, dyspepsia, rheumatism, neuralgia, nervousness and kidney trouble. As a means of check ing premature decay, hastening conva lescence and mitigating the infirmities of age, the great tonic Is without a parallel.
