knows the need of
a counter-balance to
equalize power and keep the machinery
going with a steady even motion. With
ont it the machinery woEld wrench itself
out of shape. It is the same way with the
machinery of the human body it needs
to 20 on steadily and regularly to be in
good health-pot by fits and starts. The
sudden wrenching medicines which peo-
pie sometimes take to overcome consti-
patton, give a violent strain to the intes-
tines which weakens them, so that the
costiveness is afterwards worse than be-
fore.
What costive people need is a natural
laxative like DIR. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets
which are powerful without being vio-
lent. They move the bowels gradually
and comfortably but surely. You can
regulate the dose - one, two or three
"Pellets exactly as you need They
strengthen the intestines to do their own
work, so thai after their movements have
become regular they keep on naturally
Of themselves.
The Pleasant Pellets " gently stimu-
late and invigorate the liver to throw off
biliousness; and tone up the stomach to
sccrete the digestive juices, and over
come dyspepsia. The entire digestive
or alimentary, tract is put in motion in
the regular steady way Of nature and
health. This is what makes the Pleas
ant Pellets" so immensely superior to
the numerous purging pills which wrench

AN EXTRA SESSION.


A Report That Congress May BE Called
Together In September.
WASHINGTON, July 30-Within the
past "a hours the report has been per.
sistently circulated that the president
has already taken the preliminary
steps toward converting congress In
september and 1t Is asserted that
the draft Of the call Is In the
state department. Acting Secretary
Rockhill, asked this morning rs
to the truth Of the report, fatty
refused 10 discuss the matter at all.
The basis Of the report Is the commu-
nication known to have been received
some days ago from Consul General
Fitzhugh Lee upon the conduct Of the
Weyler campaign in Cuba. The report
was taken by Secretary Olney to Gray
Cables. The nature OF the report can
not be ascertained except that Gen.
Lee scores Weyler roundly for con-
stantly ignoring the rights of Amer-
cans and for repeated violations Of the
provision Of the existing treaty be-
tween Spain and the United States.

NEW METALS FOR COINS.


WASHINGTON, Aug. 3.-Experiments
with pure nickel and aluminium as
substitutes for the present nickel
pieces and one and two cent bronze
pieces will be made at the minis by
order of Director Preston during Sep
TENDER or October. A resolution was
passed by the house Of representatives
authorizing such experiments. There
is some doubt whether the actual
adoption of a new metal for the
minor coins will be recommended
at an early date by the treas
ury officials, even If the experiments
prove successful. The objection to
a change in any form otcoins or notes
is the disposition of the public to re-
fuse the old forms and insist upon hav-
ing the new. This would drive into
the minis for recoinage $4,000, 900 in
nickel pieces, which are now in circu-
lation, and S7,5OO,OO0 in pennies. The
advantage claimed for pure nickel, in
stead of the alloy now used in FIVE
cent pieces is its greater hardness,
durability and distinctness Of impress
sion.
