FOR WOMEN'S
BENEFIT.
Interesting meetings held and
the ladies given valuable in
structiOns in the care and pro-
lection Of health.

Mrs. Doolittle has given two, of a
series of health talks here, the first
upon the subject of Health, how to
preserve it, and if impaired, how to
regain it" and the second upon The
Nervous System" The latter was
enthusiastically received. Mrs. Doo-
little says: I'VE American women
are spendthrifts in vitality. We
need to learn to have surplus fund,
for it takes vitality to be a pleasant
and congenial wife, it takes vitality
to be the calm consistent mother,
it takes vitality to be helpful friend
and it takes vitality to bear the little
irritations of common daily life"
Then she went on to say that the
women drain their nervous system of
its needed strength by worries, that
they need to know how to conserve
their strength, that to most women
real relaxation is an unknown guam
tity. Lille down daily, relax before
doing so, relieve the tense nerves and
you will gain supply of vitality un-
thought of. Drive the congested
nerve force out of the spine by means
of cold water, the shock will force the
vitality out into every part of the
body and invigorate it. Cold baths
are great aid, brush baths for a
good circulation and cold dash of
water afterwards for tonality. Eat
good wholesome food to insure
healthy pure blood. Whole wheat
bread is almost necessity for we'll
nourished nervous system. Posterm
cereal and milk instead of tea and
coffee, the red meets beef and NUT
ten and plenty of vegetables especi.
ally lettuce, celery and asparagus.
Potatoes are not so healthy and are
given too much prominence in our
daily diet. Look to it that your
children are we'll nourished while in
school. Whole wheat bread is essen
tial for them"
Mrs. Doolittle is thoroughly alive
to the interests of the times in it's
need for thought along all lines of
hygiene, food and right living and
seems very anxious to assist in arous-
ing an interest among women to study
themselves, their needs and to feel
the Unborn right of each woman to be
we'll and robust in order to make the
most of her self and family. The
press in the towns, where Mrs. Doo-
little has been, speakes highly of her
talks to the school girls as we'll as
those given to the ladies. She will
address the meeting of the w. G.. T..
U. on Friday afternoon at Mrs. He'd
burgs.

CHAMBERLATN'S SPEECH.
The Marquis OF Salisbury Declines
to Discuss 1t.

LONDON, May lin the House OF
Lords to-day the Liberal leader. the
Earl of Kimberly, questioning the Gov
ernment as to its intention in regard
to Wei Hal Wei, referred to the recent
speech of the Secretary of States for
the Colonies, Joseph Chamberlain, say
ing the alliance mentioned by the latter
could only have been an alliance for
mutual defense against Russia, and
asked if the matter was SO far ad-
vanced that We may soon hear of a
great alliance with a European power.
He explained that he could not con-
ceive Of any alliance with the United
States, because it would be contrary
to the policy the latter has always pur-
Sued adding that unless the Govern
ment had made such approaches in the
direction Of an alliance that ere long
the House may hear of it's conclusion,
nothing more was likely to prevent its
conclusion than Mr.. Chamberlain S
speech.
The Marquis of Salisbury, in reply,
declined to discuss Mr. Chamberlain S
speech, on the plea that he did not have
it in his hands. Referring to Wei Hal
Wei, the Premier declared that that
port had been occupied to encourage
Chinese reform, and to show Japan and
Corea our naval power"
Continuing, the Marquis of Salisbury
said the Governments policy was the
development of commerce and friendly
relations with all nations.

IN THE HOUSE.
Two Important Bills Affecting La
bor Passed.

Two Important B1IlS Ahect1nS La
bor Passed.
WASHINGTON, May 1.-THE House
held a brief session to-day. Two i'm
pOrtant bills affecting labor were pass
ed, one limiting the labor of persons
employed upon Government works and
and in Government service to eight
hours daily, and the other providing for
the equipment of a non-partisan Labor
Commission to consider legislative
problems affecting labor.
When the House met to-day Daven-
port of Pennsylvania, from Elections
Committee No. l, called up the report
in the contested election case Of w.
Godfrey Hunter VS. John S. Rhea, from
the Third Kentucky District. The re-
port favored the sitting member, and
without discussion was adopted The
contestant, DR. Hunter, is now Minis
ter to Guatemala.
Corliss of Michigan called up the
House bill to repeal the law providing
that the transmission of the electoral
vote of the States to Washington shall
be by messenger. The bill proposes
transmission by mail and express, and
was urged by Corliss in the interest Of
economy. The present method costs
100000 every four years.
The bill was defeated after pro-
longed discussion, in which many men,
bers participated.
The House then took up its bill to
limit to eight hours each day the work
Of laborers, workmen or mechanics en-
ployed in the service of the Government
or upon public works by contract or
otherwise.
The bill was amended so as to sus-
pend it's operations as affecting mill
tary and naval work in time of war,
and was passed without division.
The Senate bill providing an Ameri-
can registry for the ship Centennial,
now at Seattle, was passed.
The House passed a bill to authorize
the appointment of non-partisan COM
mission to collect information and rec
ommend legislation to meet problems
presented By labor agriculture and
capital
The bill proposes a commission Of five
members from the House and Senate,
respectively, and nine others repre-
senting different industries and en-
ployments, to be appointed by the
President and confirmed by the SEN
ate.
The House then adjourned at 2:45 p.
m.

WASHINGTON, May 17.-Consider-
able progress was made by the Senate
to-day in considering the war revenue
measure. Jones of Arkansas presented
in a general statement the views of the
Democratic members Of the Finance
Committee He maintained that the
taxes imposed by the pending bill ought
to be levied on property, and not upon
consumption; that the policy of the
Republican party had always been to
impose taxes upon consumption, while
the idea of the Democratic
party was to impose it upon
property He believed that tax
alton that would raise S150000,000
would be amply sufficient to be car
Tied by this bill, and that if the exigen-
cies OF the war should demonstrate that
more money was needed Congress could
provide it later. He opposed the propo-
sition to issue bonds and certificates Of
Indebtedness far in excess Of the re-
quirements of the war, and held that
the expenses should be paid by the Gov
ernment as the war progresses.
The Senate Chaplain in his invoca-
ton at the opening of the session to-
day paid a tribute to those who suffer
at home through the horrors of war.
Hale, Chairman of the Committee on
Naval Affairs, offered the following res
olution, which was agreed to:
That the Treasury appointments
made by the President on and after
-xpril y, 1898, and up to the date of
the passage Of this joint resolution, of
the officers Of the line and staff Of the
navy are hereby ratified and confirmed
to continue in force during the exigency
under which their services are required
in the existing war. Officials SO ap-
pointed shall be assigned to duty with
rank and pay Of the grades establish
ed by existing law, and shall be paid
from the appropriation for pay Of the
navy"
A bin was reported from the Military
Affairs Committee by Carter of Mon
tana, and passed, providing that pay
and allowance of the volunteers enlist
ed in the United States army shall be-
gin on the day Of their enrolment at
the State camps, with a provision that
volunteer troops sent to the Philippine
Islands may draw one months pay in
advance. 1t was explained that the bill
applies only to those who had as vol
a-.teers enlisted in the United States
army.
ON motion of Allison consideration OF
the war revenue measure was resumed,
Jones Of Arkansas taking the floor.
Jones said that he doubted whether
there was a man in the Senate who was
not ready to vote all the money and
taxes necessary to carry on the present
war He would not perform his duty,
he thought, if he should vote for too
much money The problem presented
was how much money is needed.
Jones called attention to the state
meat of Secretary of the Treasury
Gage that the additional expenses of
the war, over and above the current
expenses of the Government, would be
about $50, 900, 600 month, a total OF
perhaps $500 100000 in a year. Secre-
tary Alger had informed the Finance
Committee that the extraordinary war
expenses of his department would be

tor Jones also bought the colt Idolita,

land horsemen. George w Saunders

The great wonder is that there are so
many half-men in the world to-day.
There is no reason why there should
be one. These weak ones let things
90 on from bad to worse, when they
ought not to waste a single moment
in putting things right. They waste
away by small degrees, the nerves be-
come unstrung and debilitation-often
complete-follows. One thing is Ger
tain. and that is in every case delay
means a worse state of affairs. Where
vigor has been lost it is possible to re-
cover it, no matter from what cause
the weakening process springs-oVer-
work, brain fatigue or the abuse OF
natures forces in some way. 'Hud-
yam restores vital force in very, very
short time. This is the history OF many
a case.
