A bride is always interesting. When a
woman becomes bride she is making one
of the great changes in life. She is enter
ing on duties entirely new to her-duties,
which she is all too often wholly unified and
unprepared for 1t is woman's duty, as
we'll to herself as to her husband, that she
shall be strongly healthy in every way-par-
ticularly in those organs which are to be
called into play in bringing children into
the world Weakness and disease of the
organs distinctively feminine undoubtedly
cause much of the misery, unhappiness and
incompatibility of married life. A woman
whose nerves are continually nagged with
torturing pains, whose vitality is low, and
whose strength is unequal to her daily tasks
does not find it possible to be always ami
able and cheerful. And yet, amiability,
cheerfulness, good looks and viyacity are
the things most expected by e husband
Every woman may have these things If she
will make and keep herself strong and
healthy. The way is simple. 1t leads tS

ate amendment on white pine. Mr..
Teller declared that the entire report
should be rejected and sent to commit
tee representing the Senate and carrying
out it's instructions. Referring to the
bill as whole, the Senator asserted that
it was the meanest tariff ever enacted
The Senate at 5:15 p. M, on melton of
Mr.. Allison, went into executive session
and then adjourned.
Washington, July 20.-The indications
when the Senate adjourned to-day were
that vote would be reached upon the
conference report on the tariff bill some
time during Thursday, or at the latest
before the close of the week. There
may be a change in the condition which
will postpone a vote, but it is difficult
to see what could cause it, The oppo-
nents to the bill realize that there is
no possibility of preventing the adOp-
tion of the report and their present pur-
pose is only to secure what advantage
they can by exhibiting what they claim
are the inconsistencies of the measure.
1t is true that at one time they had
some hope of being able to secure the
recOmmittal Of the BILL but thorough
canvass reveals no foundation for this
hope. 1t develops the fact that the
Republicans will vote solidly for the re-
port and that they will be supported
by Messrs. Jones, of Nevada, Silver
Republican,, and McEnery, of Louis
lana, Dem.), and also probably Messrs
Mantle and Stewart, (Silver Republi-
cans). They have also discovered that
Senator Kyle, (Populist, who is alb
sent, has left strict instructions that he
should not be paired. With the adoption
of the report thus assured the Demo
Gratis probably will not attempt to pro-
long the debate beyond the arrival of
Mr.. Turley, the new Senator from
Tennessee. They will continue to ask
for an explanation of changes made by
the conference, but these win not occu-
py great deal of time.
The general opinion is that the quorum
Of the Senate will disappear very soon
after the disposal of the tariff bill, but
the determination Of the supporters of
the Harris Pacific Railroad resolution to
secure a vote upon it before hnal ad-
journment may delay that eonsummation
for some days.

LAND OFFICES In ALASKA.
The Gold Discoveries Make Their Es-

Washington, d. c., July 20.-Commis-
sioner Hermann, of the General Land
Office, stated to-day that he will recon-
mend the establishment of two land dis
tricts in eastern Alaska, the two Offices
to be placed on the Yuken river or it's
tributaries, in anticipation of a great
number of contentious over mineral land
locations in various sections where the
gold discoveries have been made. He
says that as that region is practically
without law, especially rs to the settle
ment of contests, the local offices will
be of infinite value to the land interests
and indirectly to the preservation of law
and order. The offices, it is probable,
will be located at Circle City and Daw-
son City. The General Land Office is
in hourly expectation of petitions and
requests for some such action

and business confidence immeasurably
strengthened throughout the country.
Congress should promptly correct the
existing conditions. Ample revenues
must be supplied, not only for the ordin-
airy expenses of the government but for
the prompt payment of liberal pensions
and the liquidation of the principal and
interest of the public debt, In raising
revenues, duties should be so levied upon
foreign products as to preserve the home
market so far as possible, to our own pro-
ducers; to revive and Increase manulac-

ture, to increase our domestic and for

In every field of useful occupation the

which skill and industry are justly en-
titled.
THE necessity of the passage of tar
iff law which shall provide ample revenue
need not be further urged. The impera-
tive demand of the hour is the prompt
enactment of such a measure, and to this
object l earnestly recommend that con-
gress shall make every endeavor. Be
