A Possibility That Congress May Adj
journ June 1.
WASHINGTON, March 29.-The Spring
er free wool bill will be brought to a
vote on April % or 23, unless there
should be a hitch in the present pro-
gram of the Democratic majority of the
ways and means committee, which has
charge of the measure. Chairman
Springer, of the committee, is on the
program to close the debate in an hours
speech. Mr.. Springer expects to be suf-
ficiently improved in health by that
time to fulfill the task. Although still
nervous and weak, he is improving
steadily, and on Friday will leave the
city for Fortress Monroe, where recuper-
alton is expected to be more rapid. The
binding twine and cotton bagging bills
will then be pushed to a vote as soon as
possible, to be followed perhaps by other
specific bills attacking seperate items of
the Mckinley law.
These measures disposed of in the house,
and appropriation bills in excellent
shape so far as the house is concerned,
the Democratic majority of the ways
and means committee believe that an
early adjournment of congress is posi-
Bile, and accordingly discussed The adj
lournment to some extent Monday. No
conclusion was reached, but the senti-
ment was favorable to June as the
date for final adjournment, and there
are many persons who believe final ad-
journment will be delayed for many
weeks after the date named, but still
the sentiment expressed by the majority
members of the ways and means COM
mittee is significant as showing what
they believe as possible.

Incur GrandfatherS Time

People attached more value to
and considered longer when
spending a dollar than they do
now when spending five. Our
foIefathers were brought up to
understand that a penny saved
is a penny made, and when
opportunities to save money
presented themselves they
were quick to take advantage
of them.
This same axiom is as true
now as it was then, but instead
cf saving pennies you can save
dollars.
Now that spring is opening
and everybody is expecting to
"fix up in and about their
homes, dollars can be saved by
knowing just where to go for
just what you want to come
within your means, and to be
assured that no old style and
inferior goods are being push
ed off on you.
The best place you could
possibly strike would be the
large wholesale and retail drug,
book and wall paper house of
Saur & Balsley, one of the
Oldest business houses in Ma
poleon and Henry county.
Here you will find the latest
and nobbiest styles and pat
terms in wall paper and decor
ations, window shades and fix
lures. You will be astonished
at the beautiful designs and at
what q little cost they can be
placed upon your walls and
ceilings, 0 hung at your Win
dows. In fact q home can be
made attractive and comforta-
BILE at a very small outlay,
when the necessaries are pur-
chased at this house.
Then if you wish to bright
en- up your wood work, either
in or outside, Saur & Balsley
can fit you out at a very small
expense with a supply Of their
ready mixed paints, in any col
or, which you can apply your
self, thereby saving the labor
of an expert. The paints and
oils handled by this firm are all
warranted, and brands which
have been sold by them for
years. They also carry a large
stock of varnishes, brushes, ETC.
In the spring time, when the
weather is SO changeful, dol
lars can also be saved in doc
tor bills by laying in a supply
of the handy medicines which
Saur & Balsley always keep on
hand. AS disease eradicators
and preventatives they have
no equal. They have all the
time-tried and well known
remedies, compounded FROM
fresh and pure drugs, and can
be relied upon for the ills they
are adapted for.
Prescriptions carefully and
accurately compounded from
pure drugs by experts,
The book and stationery de-
partment Of this large house is
complete in every respect, and
goods sold SO cheap that food
for the mind is within the grasp
Of all. Albums, Bibles, Toilet
and Fancy Articles is great va.
riety and profusion. Soaps
and cosmetics in large variety.
Remember, if you wish to
save a dollar call on Saur &
Balsley.
