Present Congress Will Probably Not Act
on Bankruptcy Bill.
washington, Feb 11.-Congress bids
fair to adjourn without action on the
bankruptcy bill. The measure will
probably be buried in the same heap
with the Nicaragua canal bill and the
anti-scalping bill. The bankruptcy bill
has q history unlike either of the other
measures. For sixteen years a bank
ruptcy bill in one form or another has
been before congress. During this time
the measure has not occupied a back
seat. Commercial bodies have petit
toned, boards of trade and chambers
of commerce have passed resolutions
galore and statesmen have talked In
congress on the subject.
For twelve years Judge j. l.. Torrey,
whose personal views on the subject OF
involuntary bankruptcy were embodied
I'm the present bill, before the senate
committee amended 1t, has sat at the
doors of congress pleading for the meas
ure. The chief opposition to the bank
ruptcy bill is that western and southern
congressman, led by Bailey Of Texas.
one of the brightest constitutional law
yers in the house, want voluntary
bankruptcy only. The commercial In
terests, led by Torrey, insist upon an
involuntary law. Chicago business men
have shown great interest In Judge
Torrey's bill. The next congress VIII
take up the bankruptcy subject again,
in all probability, but for the present
session is not likely to act In the short
space of time left at its disposal.

TIME OF PLANTING.

Beets should be planted as early in
the spring as possible. Experience has
shown that the early planted beets al
most uniformly produce a larger yield
and with a higher content of sugar
than the late planted. No exact date
can be fixed which would be suitable

ties In the beet area OF the United

to plant earlier than the first week in

the sowing may be accomplished in

Central and Southern California the
sowing can take place at a much
earlier date. At Chino planting has

ONE MORE VICTIM.
The Fearful Increase of Disaster From
Small Beginnings.

The Fearful Increase of Disaster From
Small Beginnings.
A prominent gentlemen of Brooklyn re-
turned from his vacation feeling in perfect
health. AS result he was careless. The
next thing was cold; then pneumonia,
then death. Nearly all physical troubles
start with a cold, and this is just tho
season when it is most easily taken. Some
sudden change checks the action of tho
body, clogs the circulation, and lays the
foundation of death. Stop the cold in its
start and you stop the disease. A cold re-
quires the stitch in time"
There are many ways of attempting to
stop cold, but all physicians now agree
that there is only one sure way and that
is by the use of pure stimulants. The
pores must be opened, the circulation
aroused and vigor awakened. Nothing
now known to the world does this so
certainly as Duffy's Pure Malt Whisky.
1t is a remedy, not a beverage. 1t has
been used for years, and is the most
popular remedy before the public. Many
doctors, clergymen and temperance people
indorse it for its health-giving qualities,
and 1t has become family necessity.
Many unscrupulous dealers claim they
have something lust as good" Be-
ware of all such claimants, and secure
only the genuine.
