carried their baby to photographer

failed TO recognize il. The baby's fea-

the pretty dress and all the other ac-

Every Congress Ha. Its Carpet.

The new carpet on the floor of the
house of representatives is pretty to
the eye and yielding 10 the touch. Ev-
cry congress has its carpet. Congresses
of even numbers have red carpets. con-
crosses Of odd numbers have green car
pets-that is, in the one red is the dom
inant color, and in the other green
dominates. AS this is the Fifty-siXth
cOngress-an even numbCr-the carpet
is red. and very fine carpet it is too.
There are 1,4O0 yards of il. and 200
yards more are laid away to piece il
and patch it for the second session.
The carpet of the last congress is now
spread on the floors of the various
committee rooms, and that will be the
fate of its SUCCESSOR two years hence.

MODERN SLAVERY
Caused by Weak, Exhausted Stomachs, Is
Almost Universal.

You, reader, would not permit your
neighbor to call you out of bed at mid.
night and oblige You to walk the pave
Tnent for two or three hours every
night You would not allow him to
burn your hand wilfully, nor to cut
your finger off, just to please him.
Why, then, do you allow your stomach
to cause You loss of sleep, nightmare,
and continual suffering? Every dys-
peptic, every sufferer from indigestion,
biliousness. heartburn, waterbrash,
catafrh of the stomach and other stonl-
ach diseases, is a slave to his or her
stomach. There is one way-on1y one
of breaking the chains of this slav-
cry. That is by using Dodd's Dyspep-
STA Tablets.
These digest the food you have eaten.
They don't need aid from the stomach,
which is therefore given time to rest
and gain strength. They regulate the
bowels. which carry off the waste por-
ton of the food not used in making
blood Thus the stomach is emptied
and prepared to receive the next meal.
No foul gas can form in the stomach
if you use Dodd's Dyspepsia Tablets,
for the food is digested by them at
once and does not remain IN the storr.-
ech 70 ret and cagss disease.

Philadelphia, Jan. 5.-The friends Of

GRAFTON upon the comedian in New

discovered that Reed was suffering
from an advanced attack of intestinal
cancer.
Reed was roo weak TO stand a radi-
cal operation at that time. and a delay
was agreed upon. The radical opera
ton was performed yesterday. and

Smiths mare Romea. Snedeker and
Smith met at the track of the New

the merits of their animals. In two
preliminary heats Romea easily beat
Pine Knot. Then Mrs. Prindle appear
ed. Her husband placed her in the rae
ing sulliy and strapped her in. Then he
pinned her skirt into place. and the
young woman announced that she was
ready TO start. The heat was half a
mile. and at the lower turn Romea was
gradually left behind. Pine Knot won
by a neck. The time was 1:10i:.
Mrs. Prindle was evidently right at
home in the sulky. and after Guiding
her horse over the line winner she
slowly logged him around the track the
reverse way, says the New York Sun.
When the goug rang for the second
heat. she was off like n fash. leaving
her competitor to trail the dust while
she set n heartbreaking pace.
All the way around the course Mrs.
Prindle led. When the stand was
reached, the judges were so excited
that they forgot TO catch the time and
rushed out TO congratulate Mrs. Prin-
die and relieve her from her awkward
position.
