Trouble can be averted.


Symptoms that betoken danger.
The terrible results of impure blood
and depleted nerves recognized by all.
1t is impossible to have good health
with such arrangements.
Every part of the body sympatheti-
cally becomes diseased when the blood
and nerves are out of order.
People SO afflicted have nothing but
tedious years of invalidism, terminated
by more or less speedy death, to look
forward to.
The remedy is in your own hands. If
you will strengthen your nerves and
purify your blood, health, long life and
happiness will result.
To accomplish this end, YOU will find
nothing better than DR.. CLARKEs RED
IRoNPILLs. They act quickly and benc-
fcially upon both blood and nerves, and
by toning up these two great organisms,
bring good health and strength to all
parts of the body.
One of the thousands of instances
where these wonderful pills have accom-
plished untold benefit is that of Mrs. 7. A.
WEIGH, of Portland, Maine, the wife of
the well-known assistant cashier of the
Maine Central Railroad, who writes to
the RED-IRoN-PILL Co., as follows:
For long time | was a great sufferer from
nervous exhaustion. Could not sleep had no
appetite, what did cat distressed me Upon
being ADVISED to try DR.. CLARkE's Rec. IRON-
Pills | obtained relief with the first box Now
am a wcll woman, and eat and sleep as should.
These pills are a most wonderful remedy and ]
most cordially recommend them to all sufferers"
In taking RED-IRoN-PlLLs YOU have
the advantage of particularly prepared
salt of iron that by entering directly into
the blood, puriies this great vital cur
rent. 1t accomPlishcs its mission with
out any disagrecablc results and at the
same time acts as a tonic and strength
ener upon the nerves. The fact that
RED-IRoN-PILLs are convenient to carry
in the pocket and easy to take, makes
them much more popular than liquid
blood remedies.
They can be bought of any druggist for
90 cts box, SIX boxes for $50 TIE

and Adourns Till Monday.
AL : IL III

Washington. April '29.--The House.
today. passed the war revenue bin with
every one of the amendments agreed up
on by the Republican members of the
ways and means committee added. In
order to accomplish this. a parliament
tary manouevrc was necessary, as the
whole time for amendments was ex-
hausted by the minority in trying to
amend a bond feature of the bill.
Mr. Dingley offered as a substitute
an entirely new bill containing these
ported to the House. This was an ole,
parliamentary trick. frequently resort
ed to, years ago. The Morrill, tariff law
was passed in this way in its original
form after it had been loaded down
with amendments in committee of the
whole.
Many amendments We're offered 10
the bond feature of the bin ranging
from a proposition for the substitution
of an income tax provision to an au-
thorization for an issue of $3.50, 900. 000
greenbacks. but all were voted down.
At the last minute the Democrats de
cided to offer the motion to recommit
with instructions to report back the in
come tax proposition as an amendment
to the bill instead of a substitute for
the bond provision. This was due TO
the fact that Il number Of Democrats
had declined to vote to strike out the
bond provision. The motion was de
feated, 134 to 173. Four Republicans
voted with the Democrats and Popu-
lists on this vote.
But on the final passage of the bill
(Which was carried ISL to 1870 the Dem
ocrats and Populists With six excep-
lions. voted solidly against the bill.
The Democrats who voted for the bill.
We're Messrs. Cummings. Mcclellan and
