THE END ALMOST IN SIGHT.

The Republican tart IF bill managers
hope to complete the consideration of the
bill in the Senate tomorrow night and
the expectation is that the bin will not
be long in conference. The House con-
ferees have bcen in touch with the Senate
managers since the bill was irst consid-
cred in the latter body, and it is said have
already practically concurred in many of
the changes that have been made. Az
both the Senate and House managers re-
alize the necessity of an early agreement
they will hurry up the consideration of
the bill when it gets to the conference.
Of the problems still unsolvei by the
Republicans, lead ore, coal, iron ore,
gypsum, tallow and few chemicals are
giving the most trouble; but there seems
to he no doubt that an adjustment of
these differences that will hold the party
vote will be effected. On these the dis
position is to hold to the rates at present
fiXel on lead and iron ore, with the ntcn-
ton of making changes in conference.
The rate on Canadian coal will be adj
vanced to G. cents per long ton.
BUYING HOMES ON EASY TERMS.
The contract between the company and
its clients stipulates II monthly payment
during ten, fifteen or twenty years at
II choice OF the purchaser. This sum in
cludes an instal'ment on account of prn-
cipal. Sin per cent. interest on deferred
payments, and the life insurance prem
ium. Taxes aud repairs are paid by the
purchaser. Clients are advised to obi
gate themselves for twenty year period
rather than ten or fifteen, because in so
doing they are the better able to provide
against contingencies arising from non
employment, sickness, or other unex-
pected events. That is, II man need not
mortgage his income beyond safe point.
The company "ives him the privilege of
paying sooner if he wishes. Either the
whole or part of his Indebtedness is re-
ceivable ut any time and his interest ac-
count properly adjusted. This plan per-
mlts - man to provide for clean" years.
There is also the encouragement to save,
ana thus get the home more quickly.
Both ARE important considerations, be.
cause habits Of thrift thus engendered are
likely to become fixed. Payments made
in advance are most effective guaranty
againt disposessiOn. Life inurance policy
has also Il loan value in any year after the
third. Purchasers of suburban homes
under this: scheme are in every respect
most favorably placed rs regards crises,
sickness, and other economic misfortune

FEWER LEGISLATIVE SESSIONS.

The underlying principle upon which
the American commonwealth is based is
that OF the people to govern themselves
through representatives of their own
choosing, and in the early days of the re-
public the people were disposed to exer-
else their sovereignty in this matter ire
quently. All the original State legisa.
lures except that of South Carolina were
elected MS often as once n year, while
those of Connecticut and Rhode Island
were chosen semi annually.
After more than IL century of experi-
ence in this line. the American people are
disposed to look upon Il State legislature
rs Il necessary evil not to he endured too
often We have grown from thirteen
States to forty five, and in but four of
these Massachusetts, Rhode Island
New York and New Jersey-are annual
sessions of the Legislature now held In
each OF the other forty-one States the leg
lsltture meets but once in two years and
the policy of extending the term &c one
session in four years finds many adyo.
Gates. In no instance has there been n re-
turn to annual sessions where the BIZ
ennial session has been established and
the closes t inquiry would fail to find an
advocate of IL return to the old practice
outside OF those who profit by a-legisla-
tive session.
The causes for this popular dis;r,;st of
Legislative bodies lie on the surface and
are apparent to every intelligent man.
To begin with, every State has "A code of
laws covering all ordinary conditions. so
that legislatures should have really little
TO do except to rovide revenue and make
the necessary appropriations for carving
on the State government. This can he
done for Z term of years as well us tor
one year. Legislative bodies, however.
are seldom satisfied with merely furnish
ing the means &c carry on the State gov
eminent. Every session of a legislature,
even in the oldest states, is certain to
add lot of new laws to our already too
long list, and with the annual sessions
the majority of the people are never quite
certain what the law is upon any given
subject. New tax laws also have to run
the gauntlet of the courts, and decisions
can seldom be rendered by courts of last
resort in less than two years from the
time new law goes into eject
Every new session of State legislature
furnishes new opportunity for the
cranks who believe that everything under
the sun is capable of regulation by stat
ute law, an opportunity that is usually
worked to its full capacity, and in view
of all these well-known evils attendant
upon frequent Legislative sessions it is
not to he wondered at that the prevailing
tendency is toward fewer rather than
more frequent sessions. The people don't
want to he governed too much and the
majority want to know il possible under
what code Of laws they are living. With
frequent Legislative sessions they are in
danger of being governed more than they
want to be and of violating laws the cx-
istence OF which they are totally jgno.

1t is now stated that NJ. Andre OF
Stockholm, who intends to make an
attempt to reach the North Pole by
means of q balloon, has decided that it
shall be constructed III Paris. DR.. Fix
holm, who is to form one of the al
venturous party, has arrived in The
Capital for the purpose of choosing a
firm with whom to make the contract.
The balloon will have a cube of 1900
meters, and will support car capa-
BILE of carrying three persons. The or
der for the silk has been placed with
a Lyons firm, who claim that they will
be able to manufacture a material per-
fectly impermeable. The balloon is to
be finished by May 11th. when it will be
first transported to Gothenburg and
then to a small island in the SpitZ-
bergen group, whence the expedition
starts. According to DR.. Ekholm's cal
culations they will remain fifteen days

Why Your
Nerves Are Weak.

THERE ARE TWO KINDS OF
nerves; motor and sensory. The motor
nerves are nerves of motion while the sem
sorry nerves are nerves OF sensation
Every organ. every tissue in the body
contains motor and sensory nerves
These nerves are derived from toe brai,
and spinal cord.
The brain is nourished by the blood
which nouriShment comes from properly
digested food. OF course. the food must
contain the elements necessary to create
or build up brain tissue.
poor digestion makes poor blood: poor
blood makes duh brain: duh brain
