your article in the Texarkanian of

if you appoint yourself acommittee

tree planting would sood be accom-
plished. To give it a staft, this com
pany will plant and maintain ten

property along the Avenue, will,
beyond doubt, help in beautifying

LABOR.

Mr.. Cullinane of Lawrence was be-
fore the committee on labor in favor of
uniform rate of wages for Iaborers
on public works.
Mayor Chase of Haverhill strongly
favored the bill. He believed it should
be understood that a contractor. when
he bids, should agree to pay the pre-
Va1llng rate of wages in that locality
for labor. There are 100000 unem-
ployed in this country, begging their
bread from door to door, If they have
not lost all sense of manhood they will
be glad to work, even in a ditch, and
it ought to be easy to secure labor. He
cited the history of the construction OF
the Haverhill water works, when Ital-
ians were hired for $1.25 a day, living
in mud huts He also criticised the
custom Of the contractor furnishing
food to these men.
James F. McCluskey Of Boston told
the story OF a sewer contractor on Blue
Hill avenue a year or two ago, who
hired Italian help. Witness was an in
speetor. The contractor paid SIPS day
and sold supplies to the men. At the
end of two months work he claimed
some of the men owed him, instead OF
he owing them. He sold them black
bread for ten cents a loaf, which he
found was sold at four cents In NORTH
street bake shops. Beer he understood
the contractor sold for cents bottle
which cost him rs cents case. Forty
six cases were seized one Sunday morn
ing when many of the men were ar.
ested for gaming on the Lords day
These men, many of them, lived If
filth, in mud huts.

some people who imagine this will be

The only debate in the House was
over Representative Crouchs order for
inventions by the state fire marshal.
Mr.. Crouch and Mr.. Hayes of Lowell
were the only debaters, and though Mr..
Fitzgerald of Boston tried to help out
Mr.. Crouch, the latter evidently
did not catch on, for he let his order
be defeated without availing himself
of the opportunity to speak again upon
its merits
In the Senate, Senator Putnam of
Middlesex paid his respects in rather
vigorous language to the civil service
commission, and intimated that the
state could get along without that or
several other commissions, in fact that
there were altogether too many com
missions in this state. The occasion
was the annual appropriation bill for
the salaries and expenses of the COM
mission, and while the bill took it's
third reading there may be a sharp
fight against its final passage.

WHAT DO YOU BELIEVE THE
GREATEST BLESSING.

Undoubtedly the greatest blessing to
mankind is good health, and whatever will
produce health must be considered as no
less a blessing. The greatest blessing in
the shape of medicine is certainly DR..
Greene's Nervura blood and nerve RENE
dy, discovered by lie famous physician,
DR.. Greene of "a Temple place, Boston,
Mass, who is beyond doubt the most sue
cessful specialist in the world in curing
all forms of nervous, chronic or lingering
diseases. And the great blessing of this
wonderful remedy IS made all the more
sure and certain to the people by the fact
that DR.. Greene can be consulted and his
advice had in regard to any case of dis
ease absolutely free of charge, whether
YOU call or write. This means a great
deal to those who have paid out large
sums In doctors fees without benefit. If
you have failed to be cured by your fam
lily doctor, by all means consult this noted
and eminent physician at once about your
case: II Will cost you nothing to get his
opinion in regard to your case. and his
advice will undoubtedly result i'm vour
cure. AT least write him a description of
your feelings and symptoms in order that
he may write YOU what your trouble is
and how it can be speedily cured. Re-
member that he has seen and cured many
cases like yours in his large practice ana
wide experience, and he can give Won in
