THE MEANING OF 1T.

Very often we give the wrong meaning to
a word and thereby make serious mistakes.
For instance, the true and literal meaning
of the word rheumatism is caches or pains
of the muscles, bones and joints of the hui
man body" 1t is general and not specific.
Also the word relief does not mean cure.
Relief may be but a short cessation of pain.
But when we say St. Jacobs Oil cures rheu-
matism promptly and permanently, we
turn of it, unless the sufferer gives cause
for a new attack, and then it will cure
again. 1t matters not whether it is chronic,
acute or intiammatory, it will cure. That
is sure, be sure of it.

Tacoma, Feb. ga. w. Under
strom, farmer, living on Anderson's
island, came home late tonight and, in
fit OF anger took down shotgun and
blew out the brains Of his 5-year-old
son. When he saw the terrible deed
he had accomplished, he placed the
muzzle of the gun to his head and blew
out his own brains. The trouble is
said to have started from domestic
causes. Coroner Hoska has gone to the
scene, and further particulars are not

TO GET OUT OF THE WAY

When trouble is coming, is obviously the part
of common sense. An obstruction of the
bowels is serious obstacle to health. To get
this out of the way is an easy matter with the
thorough laxative, Hostetter's Stomach Bit
tiers, which, although it affords relief, never
gripes and convulses like a drastic puTgative.
Dyspepsia, malaria, kidney and rheumatic
ailments and nervousness yield to this genial
family medicine.

with routine business, number OF
bills coming from the house and being
referred.
A house concurrent resolution, by
Lusher, providing for a committee TO
examine Browns codification OF scnooi
laws, in view Of having the school cooe
published, was adopted.
New senate bills have been intro
duced as follows:

surance; Range, amending the laws OF
1898, in relation to garnishments;

tions of debt and judgments on execu-
tons stated in terms of dollars shall be
paid in lawful money of the United
States, at the option of debtor, all
stipulations to the contrary notwith-
standing, came up on third reading.
TAYLOR moved that the words "either
gold or silver be inserted in the bill.
Range, Populist, said that he had lived
in a day when greenbacks were legal
tender, and believed it ought to be so
now; that the word greenbacks ought
to be inserted. Taylor replied that this
is only state legislature, and that, If
he understood the constitution, legis-
lature could only make gold and silver
legal tender. The amendment was adj
opted. Grow, Populist, made a speech
in opposition to the amendment, in
which he arraigned the members of his
own party, saying they were trying to
defeat legislation for the people. and
joining the ranks of the enemy. Dorr,
Republican, spoke in opposition to the
bill. Deckebach and Miller of Thurs
ton followed in short speeches, and
then Yend moved the previous ques-
ton, which carried. The bill passed
by vote of 10 to 9.

peaches. William thereupon ordered
