1t Was n Bogus Bill.

A bogus bill, making appropriation for
the payment of the employees, officers and
fat members of the Dunsmore house almost
made its way through the enrolling room.
It was backed as house bill No. 262. and had
passed by the house and senate, but the body
Of the bill had never been before the house.
In some unaccountable manner it found its
way into the hands of Chairman Coulter,
who turned it over to Mrs. Hughes, chief

Extra Session in the Fall.

WARRINGTON, D. c., March 1.-The pres
ident and tho cabinet are agreed that the
earliest possible repeal of the Sherman act
is both desirable and necessary for the par
tvs welfare. They fear, however, that a
majority for the repeal could not be secured
at present in either house of congress, and q
failure might have a disastrous effect; hence
it is thought the better course Is the assem-
bling of congress early in the fall, IN order
that public opinion, which is evidently turn.
ing, may exercise It's influence in the mean
time upon senators and representatives.

AGRICULTURAL EXHIBIT.

Thirty-FIve Foreign Nations Represented
Mt the Chicago Fair.
In expositions of the past the agri-
cultural department has been neglect
ed, but in the present worlds fair there
will not only be a fine exhibit by each
of the states Of the union in this de-
partment but thirty-fve foreign ma
tions will take part. AS a comparative
study there is probably no department
which will receive greater attention.
American methods will be shown near
those of France, Chilli, Liberia and Cey-
lon. The United States experimental
station will be adjacent to that of
France, in both of which will. be shown
the methods of analysing, testing and
advancing agricultural methods and
products.
The following list of foreign nations
that have had space assigned them,
with the number of square feet each oc-
cupies, will give some idea of the scope
and magnitude Of the foreign exhibits

thus securing n twofold advantage, viz:
cleanliness and economizing manure.
In these coops l place one or two hens
with their broods, and when the moth

turned to the laying flock, and the
young left to themselves or an extra
cock as leader. These are fed and wa
tered, unless running watcf is at hand,
until the wheat harvest is over, when
the coops and fowls are moved to the
wheat stubble to CLEAN. From the
wheat fields they are transferred to the
oat stubble. Here is a period from six

she weighed but IS pounds, and although she
has taken only three bottles of Ncrvine she
now weighs 106pounds; her nervousness and
symptoms of St.Vltus dance are entirely gone,
she attends school regularly, and studies with
comfort and ease. She has recovered complete
use of her arm, her appetite is splendid, and
no money could procure for our daughter the
