(From the Press, New York City,


Few people have suffered more
from pain in the back than Mrs.
Lille h. Newell of No 23l3 Sec.
onA Avenue, New York City. For
several years she was so afflicted
with this distressing malady that
she was hardly able to get around,
and could do little to care for her
children which made her suffering
all the harder to bear. Her hus-
band, Charles Newell, who is a
we'll known New York optician,
tried in every way to find a reme-
dy for his wife, but no medicine
seemed to have the power to re-
move her pain.
Mrs. Glynn, Il sister of Mrs.
Newell, is a professional nurse,
and was familiar with the symp
toms Of her sisters sickness. Mrs.
Newell was away on visit when
a reporter called upon her, but
Mrs. Glynn, who lives at No. 4l6
One = hundred and - twentieth
Street, told the story of her sis
ter's recovery.
A doctor was called when Mrs.
Newell's condition became serious
and he prescribed small pink
pills which, in short time, re-
lieved the woman's pain as no
other medicine ha9 done. after
awhile" Mrs. Glynn told the re-
porter, 1--WE learned that the me-
dicine the physician was giving

d.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People. Knowing by experience
how excellent a remedy these pills
were, Mrs. Newell bought some at
a drug store and continued taking
them. The effect was most graft
flying, for in six months sister
was perfectly well and the pain
in her back was nothing more
than an unpleasant memory.
Both she and | have recommend
ed the Pink Pills to other people,
who have not failed to find them

doctors my sister had been treated
by, before taking the pills, had
done her no apparent good"

WASHINGTON, May 2. - Senator

the comm ittee's deliberations. The

committed during the sitting Of a u
or u Judge in a chamber. in its or his
presence; all other contempts are indi.
rect. 1t provides for the immediate
and summary punishment of direct

Especial interest in the bill centers in
the provision for the punishment of
contempt of court committed not in the

The provision upon this point is as fol.
lows:
That upon the return Of an officer
or process or an affidavit duly fled
showing any person guilty of indirect
contempt, a writ of attachment or
other lawful process may issue and
such person be arrested and brought
before the court; and ~thereupon, q
written accusation setting forth sue
emily and clearly the facts alleged to
constitute such contempt shall be filed,
and the accused required to answer the
same by an order fixing the time and
place of hearing, and the court may on
proper showing, extend the time so as
to give the accused a reasonable
opportunity to purge himself Of
such contempt. After the answer.
or in case Of refusal to answer, the
court may proceed to hear the accuse.
ton upon such testimony as may be
produced. If the accused answer the
trial shall proceed upon testimony pro-
duced as in criminal cases, and he shall
be confronted with the witnesses
against him, but such trial shall be by
the court, or in its discretion upon ap-
plication by the accused. a trial by
jury may be had as in any criminal
cases. If found guilty, Judgment shall

punishment.
The bill allows appeal to the supreme

The government now makes about IA
denominations Of postage STAINS. They
are the l, 2, 3, 4, Sc, Z, 8, 10, Is and so
cent stamps, and the 81, 81 and s. de-
nominations. Merry few people in the
postal service ever can tell you the use
of the q and s5 varieties, however, for
really they rarely have any other use
than the gratifying Of the whimsical
taste OF stamp collectors. Besides these
postage stamps there are made what are
known as periodical stamps'-that is,
stamps with which newspaper publishers
prepay the postage on their editions at
pound rates. They are never sold, but
attached to the stubs OF receipts which
are given to the publishers for the
money paid for postage on the publics-
tions. Not even a publisher a buy
them. and they never pass into the
possession Of the unofficial public. They
are made IN denominations which range
all the way from l cent to 800. Besides
these are made the postage due and
special delivery stamps.
The bureau keeps on hand a store OF
stamps equal to almost any emergency.
There are now IN it's vaults more than
sc, 10000, and the mandatory is run
ming on full time. Last year there were
produced nearly 2,5OO,OOO,O00, and yet,
with the constantly increasing demand,
no cessation in the creation OF supply is
possible. 1t is estimated that stamps
cost the government something like 5
cents a Thousand. Receipts from the
sale OF then last year were, on an aver
age, more than 100000 a month.
More than 80 per cent Of all these sold
were OF the 2.cent denomination.
