Der Of the house committee on inter
state and foreign commerce, having in
charge the bill for the improvement Of
the revenue service by the retirement
Of officers who have become disabled
or incapacitated by age, says he has
not dispaired Of getting the bill
through. 1t Is very probable that i'm
mediately after the holidays an At
tempt will be made to pass the bill
under suspension Of the rules. The
committee on commerce will perhaps
ask that recognition be given 1t to
press the bill to equalize the salaries
in tho steamboat inspection service.
Mr.. Mallory says that If the commit
tee prefers to take up the steamboat
inspection bill instead Of the revenue
marine bill that he will try to secure
individual recognition on q suspension
day in order 10 pass the latter bill.
He has no doubt but two-thirds vote
necessary to pass bill under suspen-
sion OF the rules can be secured for the
measure, 1t Is important to get the
bill through congress soon, as it must
be considered by the senate and be-
come law before March 4, or pass

a room all your own is not feasible, ask
mamma for a little cot. Better cots all over
the house than this herding together. L
know that many households are cramped
for room. but where there is a will there
is generally found a way. 1 only wish I
could devote chapters and chapters TO this
theme. We are growing more civilized each

slowed upon. some and denied others The
gill o~verfiowing with life and vitality gives
away certain recuperative powers to the
delicate sister when compelled to share the
same bed with her. This holds good in all
cases.
Dull eyes, offensive breaths, sallow skins,
inactive limbs, follow this unhealthy prac-
tice. Sleep alone and in this way preserve
the wine of youth. that glorious elixir
which gives to the world bright, happy,
