The part of a Serge Suit
that ought to be good is the
color. Who wants a Serge
Suit from which the color
rubs! It's worse than none.
Some dyes are like the paint
On a house-wears off. There
has never been found a
paint which would sink into
the wood, coloring it
through and through. Same
way with dyeing cloth. The
ordinary dyes don't dye
through and through.
We've found a manufac-
turer who uses a dye that
sinks into and becomes a
part of the cloth. 1t won t
rub off-he guarantees that.
Our Suits are made from
the finest of pure wool, dyed
by this dye. When they re
made up they are worth SIS,
but We sell them for SO,
because we want to get a
"trade" on them. You can
have them Single or Double
Breasted-skeleton or half
lined, and we guarantee
them through and through
will return your money If
you are not satisfied.
SO each-cash or credit.
You can just as well have
credit if you want lt-pay

SMALLEST IN FOUR YEARS.
Sundry Civil Bill as Passed Carried
About So 5 100000.

The sundry civil bill. as It passed the
House is the smallest since 1892, and 1t
is claimed for the Senate committee that
the large increase made was due 10 the
fact that the Senate refused to appropriate
sufficient to supply the various Depart
ments during the whole of the fiscal year
which the bill Is supposed to cover.
The estimates called for $40 ,473,653,
and the House only appropriated $780,
s36, ,992 The Senate increased this by
S5,121,s5O The same bin for the cur
rent year carries an appropriation of forty :
six and one-half millions.
The Senate bill is less than the present
law. by more than eleven and one-haf
millions. and less than the estimates by
five and one-half millions.

ness of the Senate, it could take no action.

FOR PARTY ADVANTAGE.
why the Democrats Are Anxious to
ProIong the Session.

Some of the Republican Senator'S. stated
in yesterdays Times, are apprehensiye
that there Is a deep scheme On TIE part
OF the democrats To postpone adjournment
until week or so after the st. Louis con,
veation. Indeed, there are many Demo-
cratic Senators who are Outspoken in favo
Of this idea, and while they are not quite
willing TO say openly that they look for
party advantage that appears, however,
to he the real reason FOR their action.
1t is argued by the politicians that the
outcome OF the ST. Louis convention is
bound to be a straddie on the financial
question and if Congress is in sessian after
that event the Democratic statesmen at
both ends OF the Capitol can make tons
OF campaign material for their party. II
is this fact which is giving the Republican
leaders OF both houses no end or trouble.

HEART DISEASE.
SOME FACTS REGARDING THE
RAPID INCREASE OF HEART
TROUBLES.
Do Not Be Alarmed. But Look for the
Cause.

Do Not Be Alarmed. But Look for the
Cause.
Heart troubles, at lea st among Americans,
are certainly increasing and while this may
be largely due to the worry and excitement
OF American business life, 1t Is more often
the result of weak stomachs, Of poor diges-
ton.
Real, organic heart disease is incurable;
but not one case In q hundred OF heart
trouble is organic.
The close relation between heart trouble
and poor digestion Is because beth organs
are controlled by branches OF the same great
nerves, the Sympathetic 8 and Pueunoga stric.
In another way, also, the heart IL affected
by that form Of poor digestion. which causes
gas and fermentation from half digested
food, there is a feeling OF oppression and
heayiuess in the chest caused by pressure
OF the distended stomach on the heart and
lungs interfering with their action; hence
arises palpitation and short breath.
Poor digestion also poisons the blood
makes 1t thin and watery, Which Irrltates
and weakens the heart.
The most sensible treatment for heart
troubles is to improve the digestion and to
insure the prompt assimilation OF food.
This can best be done by the regular use,
after meals OF some safe. pleasant and ef-
fective digestive preparation, ike Stuart's
Dyspepsia Tablets, which may be found at
most drug stores and which contain valua-
bic, harmless digestive elements, III pleas
ant. convenient form.
II is safe to say that the regular, persis-
tent use OF Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets at
meal time, will cure any form of stomach
trouble except cancer OF the stomach.

most druggists at 80 cents or by mail from

record player l am. always looking out for

Naturally, feel burt to see myself mis-
represented in this way. / have been in
Philadelphia six years, and it took them
long time To find out that 1t would be better
TO let me go for some one else. l never had
any trouble or words with Messrs. Reach
and Rogers. and have some dear friends in
the Philadelphia club, who could give the
lie to some OF the slanders uttered about ME.
Il know all the players in the Boston club,
and feel sure it will be as easy for them 10
get along with ME as it viii be. FOR me to
play with them. In fact, l feel that
1 can play 90 per cent better. in this city
than did in Philadelphia. l think the Bos-
ton club will be very strong, indeed. crD-
slider the deal very advantageous on both
sides, for the Philadelphia club would not
have allowed me to go were it not for the
fact that n man like Nash could pe secured
in exchange.
II think a great player has been secured
for him and is a wonder, indeed. No one
need have any doubt about his ability to
play ball all right, and L think he will
show up well in his batting. 1 am positive
the Boston club of.'96 WILL be faster than
its predecessor, for Collins gets over the

satisfactory. 1 do not know why it is

bowling this winter, and think 1t has done
me a great deal Of good.
The race will be a hot one, of course,
but Boston should be in it all the time,
barring accidents. The new man, Ber-
gen, is highly spoken Of. My townsman,
Frank ConnaughtOn, cannot praise him
too highly. The club should be strong in
pitchers. Nichols is a wonder, and both
Sullivan and Dolan are men who did fine
work last season, and should be more
valuable this year. Both are young, and
both have remarkably cool heads.
Il think it is an excellent idea for the
club to take its early spring training in
one place, and not go travelling around
before working North. 1t is sure to be
very beneficial. A finer place than Char
lottesville could not be desired, and I, for
one, am very much pleased that the play.
