BABIES.

Remember that with feeble infants who do not
thrive on their mothers milk or the best prepared
foods in the market, WE REQUEST NO CHANGE
OF FOOD, but add 5 or more drops four times
daily of Murdock's Liquid Food, and you will find
to them in less than thirty days.
Not a case of Cholera Infantum known where
Murdocks Liquid Food has been used, nor death
from Cholera Infantum where it has been pre-
scribed by physician.
The question often asked-how does Murdock's
Liquid Food compare with other Foods and Ton
les? We refer to the State Inspector of Foods for
Massachusetts in his annual report for 1886.
Murdocks Liquid Food contains 1A10 per cent.
of albumen; all the other foods do not contain
any. Common food does not contain over one per
cent. that is available.
1t contains less organic matter than common
food and common food contains 1886; the other
preparations from 22.62 to e0.50 per cent.
It contains 0.42 of ash, which is indigeStible
matter. The others contain from $50 to 2374
per cent
En alcoholic extracts 1.97. The other prep
i.!ations are all TONICS, as they contain from
21.13 to 56.13 per cent.
These facts show why Murdock's Liquid Food
excels all other foods and preparations in making
new blood and cleansing the system of disease.
A tablespoonful four times day will make 10
rounds new blood monthly, and the system con-
tains "a to % pounds.

In the Commons.

LONDON, September LIN the Com
mons, tonight, Sexton moved his
amendment to address a reply to the
Queens speech IS follows: "Wehumbly
represent to your majesty that ciroUm-
stances accountable for the recent riots
IN Belfast dictate the necessity for
SPECIAL measures to maintain order
there. the most urgent of these meas
ures being the re establishment of your
majesty's authority In the district
where the police have been expelled, by
an increase Of he local constabulary to
such a strength as will enable il to deal
With anv probable contingency"
In Offering the amendment, Sexton
denies he had acted cOntentiOusly He
charged that the riots in Belfast had
been conceived and prosecuted in
the interests of the present govern
ment (cheers } He demanded that gov
eminent restore order in Belfast now,
and not await the results Of prOtracted
inquiry by the Commission. SIX hun
dred poor Catholics had been deprived
of a livelihood through political in
trlgue. He was not aware that any
Protest ants had been treated similarly.
He asked Lord Randolph Churchill
whatg government proposed to do TO in
duce the Protestant employers at Bel
last to fulfill their duty and reenplOy
the Catholics they had discharged. 1t
was impossible TO correct those riots
with the question of home rule. With
or without home rule the riots would
insue unless government brought those
who mad enacted the disorder 10 Justice.
(cheers)-by the use in Ireland of pub
lie forces, promptly and decisively as
were used in Hyde Park, L0nuOn, Am
sterdam, Chicago, and elsewhere. Lord
Randolph ChurChills Belfast speech
had tendency TO excite spirit OF dis
LOYALTY among the people, and he be
lieved the riots were got up In order to
influence the division on the home rule
bill in the House Of Commons, aud TO
effect the result OF the general elections.
(Cheers). Sexton concluded by asking
Churchill what he intended to do To re-
medy the frightful consequences of his
own acts. (Cheers).
Michael Hicks-Beach denied absO-
lutely that Churchill's action had IN
any wise led to the Belfast troubles. He
feared the difficulty Of the position
would be materially increased by
| Sections statements, and he earnestly
! implored the ParnelItes to rsfrain from
saying any thing that would be likely to
/ provoke the unfortunate feelings which
/ had originated the riots. He warmly
/ praised the manner in which the
constabulary of Belfast had acted. The
Chief Secretary expressed the hope that
members of the House would assist
government to the utmost in the diff
/ cult task which has confronted then
and await patiently the results of the
/ -oyal commissioners inves tigatiOn,
when government would know what
C urSe to adopt.
Mcdonald moved to adjourn the de-
bate.

Pugh, bill providing for the appoint

District Judge for the Southern District
of Alabama, was taken up. Sen. Logan
moved to amend, by fixing the salaries of
all district Judges at $1,000 year. Sens.
Kenna and George opposed the amend
ment increasing salaries. The bill, as
amended, was passed.
UNLESS Congress very materially modi
fies the river and harbor bill it Is regard
ed as quite probable that the president
will veto it. Friends of the Executive
argue that bill making appropriations
only for works of national character
would be approved. 1t is very doubtful
if such a measure as this could be passed
through both houses.
Mr.. Miller, Commissioner of internal
Revenue, who accompanied Secretary
Manning to the Virginia Springs, and
and who has been in almost daily com
munication with him since, denies the
truth of the published report that the
Secretary IS seriously i'll and will be taken
at once to his home in Albany. The Sec
retary, he thinks, will probably remain at
the Springs several days yet.
