a little courage for chap to make the
start from just where he happens to be
when a project presents itself to him. a
majority of us not only desire to wait
until things shape themselves to our
wishes, but we insist upon making that
wait. The man who says "fn do it, "
and keeps his word, is phenomenal; the
one who makes the promise and tries to
keep it, sometimes failing and some

not drink milk without being distressed
by it. The reason : that they drink it
too fast If glass of milk is swallowed
hastily it enters the stomach, and then
forms in one solid, cnrdled mass difficult
of digestion At least four minutes
should be occupied in drinking glass of
milk, so that il reaching the stomach it

will attempt to kill the Silver bill with
the tariff. | have heard q great many
rumors to that effect, and If we find out
that that is the game, we have way to
meet it, and the Silver bill will be offered
as an amendment to every bill which
comes up. We do not intend hat a
minority shall run over majority in that
way, and we have a ma jority in favor of
the Silver bill The Silver bill will not
be kept down by any tactics of the kind
1t is evident that there is to be q very
sharp contest in the House of Represen-

Free Coinage bill. The members Of the
Committee on WAYS and Means will en-
deavor to have their measures brought
