TO the dentists becomes a necessity. 1t is
only natural, therefore, at such a time for

happily for Washing tonians, there is an es-

pest manner possible. This is the we'll
known United States Dental Associa ton
which has offices in all the leading cities of

Among other advantages claimed by the
United States Dental Associa ton are two
important specialties of its own. One
is the Neal vegetable vapor, for the pain

WHAT FAST SKATERS REQUIRE.
Physical Needs OF Those Who Desire to
Excel In Ice Racing.

FnyNlcA NeeOS OF Those Who Desire 70
Excel In Ice Racing.
The typical speed skater has O short
body, caracious, round chest with
well-dcvcloped back; his thighs are
strong and very long, rs are also his
legs. His feet are large and fiat. His
weak points are his calves, due to the
long, fiat skate to which his flattened
foottis SO closely bound. The large mus
Giles of his chest are not exercised, and
his arms, held lying idly along his
back, arc unused except in an occasion
al squirt, when they are brought down
and swung straight from the shoulder.
They say that they catch less wind
held that way, and that the position
is restful to the tense eXtensors of the
back. This is, no doubt, true, says
Popular Science Monthly, but the re-
suit is disastrous to symmetrical devel-
opment. This type of figure is seen at
its best in such skaters as the Dona-
hucs. Mccormick, the old-time profess
sional, who still skates fast race, al
though now 40 years of age, and in
Wilson Breen, a professional. who has
been winner of much gold and glory
by means of his long legs and power
full thighs. The conclusion that speed
skating alone is not good exercise
to develop n wcll-built, symmetrical
man will be patent to anyone who re-
views the facts. IF iudulGed i'm it should
be, as done by McCulloch. in conjunc-
ton with other forms of athletics which
bring into action the muscles of the
arm, calf, shoulders and chest.

THEIR POSITION DEFINED.

Hon. Joseph G. Hutchinson, Dem
ocratic Congressman from Texas,
made speech i'll the House in favor
Of cOncurring in the Senate free coin
age amendment TO the House bond
bill, in which he defined the attitude
OF the Republican party to tho silver
question. He said: 81 have listened
to the attitude of gentlemen from the
Republican side on this question dur.
ing this discussion, and when have
defined it | will take my seat. Speak
ing in the language of Mr.. Brosius
and using the gcsticulations of Mr..
Dolliver, their attitude to the silver
question is that they feel toward sIl
yer that it is the spiritual cognos-
cence of psychological irrefragability
connected with the conruitant
ademption of uncoIumnient spiritual
isy and the ctherialized contention of
subsultory concretion."
The Congressional Record tells us
that this definition of the attitude of
the Republicans of the House toward
the silver question was greeted with
great laughter and applause. AS
laughable as it may be, it is no more
30 than the position the leaders of
the Republican party in this State
have assumed on this question. Pre-.
sum ng upon the ignorance of the
people, they are now wildly exhorting
them TO come into the Republican
fold as the only means of securing
the free coinage of silver. And this,
too, III the face of the fact that only %
Republicans out of 244 in the House
of Representatives voted in favor of
a free coinage bill on the 14th of this
month. Tho other 2l9 placed them
selves on record against the measure
and in favor of the issuance of more
bonds.
Tho position of the party as defined
by MIR. Hutchinson is respectfully
commended 20 the Republican papers
of Nevada. 1t will doubtless be as
Ineligible to them as their position
on the silver question is to the honest
voters of the State.

Congressional

WASHINGTON, Feb. 19.--There was
sharp controversy in the Senate
over the PETER resolution to investi
gate the recen; bond issues. Lodge
moved, regarding the amendment, to
have the Committee on Finance make
an investigation. Hill opposed the
re solution, declaring that the Senate
should not dignity vague rumors by
an inve ;tigation, as it had done re.
garding the charges that Senators had
speculated i'll sugar stocks. When
Hill said that no charges had been
made against the President or the
Secretary of the Treasury, Stewart
said he would make charges. There
was an angry passage between Hill
and Tillman, because Hill refused to
be interrupted. The latter accused
Hill of talking against time to kill
the resolution. AS no action was
taken upon it at 2 o'clock, under the
rules, it went to the bottom of the
calendar.

with an invasion of the cheap labor of

WISDOM FROM MKINLEN.

Major Mckinley in his matserly in
PRODUCTION to the great work on the
tariff. Protection and Prosperity"
says:
The world knows Of the wonderful
we have made. The expert
ence of the United States in diversity
ing industries and developing its home
market has contributed more or less
to the growing disregard for the max
inns of schoOlmcn II theorists and in
creased the value of the unimpcachable
testimony of trade and experience.
The scope of Mr.. Curtiss' work prac-
tically cover the history of the worlds
trade and commerce.. The author has
undoubtedly devoted years of patient
research to gathering and arranging his
material and presenting his argument
After n careful examination of the re-
suits of this stupendous piece of work
the fair-minded American student and
reader will close the book with the con-
clusion that in our own American pol
icy we have nothing to take back, moth
ing to apologize for. Under similar col
ditions our experience has been pre-
Cisely the same as the experience of
other nations. In some ways it has
ever beer England's own experience.
\ low tariff or no tariff has always in
creased the importation of foreign
goods until IL money ran out: multi
piled our foreign obligations: produc-
ed a balance of trade against the coun-
try: supplanted the domestic producer
and manufacturer; impaired the farm
er's home market without improving
his market abroad: undermined domes-
tic prosperity: decreased the industries
Of the nation; diminished the value of
nearly all our property and invest
ments; and robbed labor of its just re-
ward. The lower the tariff the more
widespread and aggravated have been
these conditions which %paralyze our
progress and industries. This is the
verdict of our history, and. as the au-
thor of this valuable work demon
strates, with a clearness that should
carry conviction. it has been the YER
dict of history in the case Of other ma
lions. if facts and figures may be relied
upon to point out such results.
