Washington, Feb. II. The senate
passed the diplomatic and consular APP
preparation bill and fixed next Wednes-
day at 4 D. m. as the time for a final
vote on the immigration conference re-
port. These were the only features of
the open session which was cut short
early in the day by the executive ses-
sion on the arbitration treaty. The dip
lomatic and consular bill as passed
carries 81 .645, 30S, a slight increase on
minor items on the house bill. Bills
fixing the time and place for federal
trials in Oklahoma Territory and
providing for the retirement of enlisted
men of the army and navy after thirty
years continuous service at three
quarters pay were passed. At 1:30 the
senate went into executive session and
at o'clock adjourned.
The house passed the Notifications
appropriation bill with but a single
amendment, and made some Roadway
with the postoffice appropriation bill.
But the major portion of the day was
consumed in a political debate on the
financial question which was precipi-
tated by an innocent provision in bill
providing for funding the debt of the
territory. The bill aroused the Opposi-
ton of Mr.. McMillin (Dem.. TENN be-
cause it provided for gold bonds and
the payment of interest in gold or It's
equivalent. The bill was finally passed.
The house then went into committee OF
the whole and took up the postotflce ap-
propriaticn blu.

Washington, Feb. 10.-The open ses-
sion of the senate was wholly perfume

widows" A bill was passed to place
the naval officer on the board appoint
ed to examine the deep water harbor

Washington, Feb. Ex-senator Nor
gan, the champion of the Nicaragua
canal BILL announced in the senate his
abandonment of that measure for the
present session Of congress, and there
upon it was displaced by the bank
ruptcy bill. The senator made this
move after a protracted contest COW
ering several weeks which had dis
closed the fact that obstructive oppo-
Sition could not be overcome. tie
gave notice that he would renew his
advocacy of the bill early in the COM
ing extra session. The bankruptcy bill
succeeded to the advantageous posi-
ton of unfinished business" but the
debate went over until tomorrow. The
agricultural appropriation bill was
taken up late in the day and passed at
Sc, 253, 500. The house bill was passed
extending the time for complying with
the requirements of the act FORGETTING
railroad lands.
The electoral votes of the forty-4ve
states of the Union were formally
counted at the joint session Of the
house and senate held for that purpose,
and Vice President Stevenson pro-
claimed the election of Mckinley and
hobart as president and vice president
respectively.
The house has pessed the senate bill
rela ting to the carrying of obscene mat
ter by express companies and it has
gone to the president for signature.

GET FLESH.
Get Strength. Vigor, Clear Complex
ion, and Good Digestion. Not by
Patent Medicine, But In Natures
Own Way.

Any honest physician will tell you that
there is but one way to get increased
flesh: all the patent medicines and cod
liver oils to the contrary, notwithstand-
ing.
Nature has but one way to increase
flesh. strength, and yigor of mind and
body. and that is through the stomach
by wholesome food well digested. There
is no reason or common sense in any
other method whatever.
People are thin. run down. nervous
pale. and shaky in their nerves, simply
because their stomachs are weak.
They may not think they have dyspep-
STA. but the fact remains that they do
not eat enough food. or what they eat
is not quickly and properly digested as
IT should be.
DIR. Harlandson says the reason is be-
cause the stomach lacks certain diges-
tive acids and peptones, and deficient
secretion Of gastric juice.
Natures remedy in such cases is to
supply what the weak stomach lacks.
There are several good preparations
which will do this, but none so readily
as Suart's Dyspepsia Tablets which are
DESIGNED especially for all stomach trou-
bles and which cure all digestive weak
ness on the common sense plan of fur
nishing the digestive principles which
the stomach lacks.
stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets give perfect
digestion. First effect is TO Increase the
appetite. and increased vigor, added flesh.
pure blood. and strength and nerve and
muscle is the perfectly natural result.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is the
safest tonic known, and will cure any
form of stomach trouble. except cancer
of the stomach. May be found at drug
gists' at 80 cents for full-szed package,
or direct by mail from Stuart Company.
