Coal Free and Iron pItiable.

The latest Information is that the de-
cision Of the conference to make coal free
and iron ore dutiable has been reversed,
and that coal will be dutiable and iron ore
free. There have been three changes on
these two articles during the day, and it
is understood that the talk about the in
fluence of the Nova Scotia Coal Company
was the controlling factor in causing the
decision in favor of the coal duty. 1t Is
understood. however. that the matter has
not been absolutely fixed yet. and that an
other reversal is not beyond the range Of
possibilities.

MISCELLANEOUS.
YOUR PALATE IS
YOUR STOMACH'S CONSCIENCE.
Fats, Oils and Grease make
thin people thinner.

Thin people are thin because the food
they eat dosen't make them fat. Reasons:
wrong food; right food ill-digested.
Fats, oils and grease will not mako any
body fat. They keep a fat person fat, but
they make thin people grow thinner. The
reason is because they are indigestable.
Tine thin person finds it hard to digest his
food. Fatty food makes it harder still for
him.
Doctors forbid dyspeptics food cooked in
grease, yetsthey will prescribe full dose of
cod liversoil hrees lines day!.The best doc
tors know that cod liver oil Just assindigest-
ible as any other oil or grease. They pre-
scribe Paskola, Pre-Digested food, instead.
Have you ever noticed that almost with
out exception thin, paln, dyspeptics, amaze
mic people have an aversion to fat? That
is proof enough that it is bad for them.
Your palate is your stomaoh's conscience.
Your stomach knowswhat is good for you.
Starch food is the food we need most OF.
Starch food makes US fat. Pre-dlgested
starch food will make us fat when ordinary
starch food won't. Paskola is pre-digested
starch food. 1t agrees with the weakest
stomach. 1t helps the weak stomach TO dl-
gest other food. 1t is fattening and lnv1g-
Grating.
Nothing but starch food will even make
you fat. The starch food that will make
you latest is Paskola.
Mr.. NJ Leonard, of Biddeford Me-, says
II have derived more benefit from two
thirds of bottle of 'Paskola' than from all
the medicine l have used in. the past SIX
months

Mr.. REED IN OHIO.
The Chief Republican Organ Names Him
for President.

(From the Cincinnati Commercial Gazette)
Why not glorious Tom Reed2 The question
stirs the blood of every Republican. Reed
looks the President to begin with. His
looks would not belle him. We're Reed in
the White House he would probably please
and displease more persons, regardless of
politics, in the first month than any man
who could be named for he would be Presi-
dent; and every one who had business with
him would be glad we had such a man for
President. He would be every inch Pres
ident in the best sense. Of the man who
subdued the Democratic party in the House
of Representatives and compelled its men,
bers, with the fiery Crisp at their head, to
take the Reed rules after denouncing him
and them from Dan to Beersheba for two
years, it could not be otherwise than that
in him the country would have President
worthy of its greatness.
Mr.. Reed is imposing. physically and
mentally. If there is anything in outward
feeling no one in Reeds presence would be
in any doubt on that point. The observer s
idea at once would be he is a match for
any man, come he in any shape or from any
quarter. He gives you an impression of
qualities of head and heart big enough to
comprehend humanity on the largest scale.
He has never pushed himself forward. Poss-
essing great powers and capabilities for use
fulness in the field of craftsmanship, he
never poses. He is a genius, without be-
ing cratic: as true a specimen of Ameri-
oanism as one could wish to see "a states
man, scholar, and citizen of high degree.
He is in complete sympathy with every
thing American, and champions his faith
on every field. He is the furthest possible
from the dictator, the calm believing adj
vocate of the true American creed he pro-
fesses. Reed comes from close 10 where
the sun rises, and true it is, .sStar of the
East. unto thee a million eyes now gladly
turn" Mr.. Reed may never be President
or even candidate. He is not posing as
such, but acting out himself. If that tends
to make him a candidate in any ones mind,
he is not responsible for the mans concep-
ton of the fitness of things. He is just
what he is, and can't help men having their
ideas about him.
Hardly another man of his period and
opportunities has made a more positive i'm
preston of striking individuality on mems
minds and affairs with which he has had
to do. Speaker Reeds political opponents
in Congress dread him. They are quick to
acknowledge the truth of all that has been
said of him. He can bide his time. He is
comparatively young man yet. and as a
great pubic character is growing in the es-
timation of the mass of his fellow citizens
Thousands of the Republica ms, as they dis
cuss among themselves the question of the
Presidency, inyoluntari1y ask: Why not

The key has turned, the siege is ended.
But she worship will but mock

Her heart has got patent lock,

Which opens all your hearts fair treas
