4 Worthy Successor.
Something New Under The Sun"

something New Under The Sum-"
All doctors have tried to cure CATARRH
by the use of powders, acid gases, inhalers
and drugs in paste form. Their powders dry
up the mucuous membranes causing them to
crack open and bleed. The powerful acids
used in the inlalers have entirely eaten away
the same membranes that their markers have
aimed to cure while pastcs and ontmenls can
not reach the discrse. An old experienced
practitioner who has for many years made a
close study and specially of the treatment OF
CATARRH, has at last perfected treatment
which when faithfully used not only relieves
at once, but permanently cures cATARRH, by
removing the cause, stopping the discharges
and curing all Inflammation. 1t is the only
remedy known to science that actuayreaches
the afflicted parts. This wonderful remedy is
known assn UFFLES the GUARANTEED
CATARRH CURE and is sold at the ex-
tremely low price of ST. each package con
tanning internal and external medicine sufti-
cient tor full months treatment and every

"SNUFFLES' is the only perfect Ca
TARRH CURE eyer made and is now recog
nized as the only safe and positive cure for
that annoying and disgusting disease. 1t cures
all inflammation quickly and permanently and
IS also wonderfully quick to relieve Hay Fe'

gress convenes there is a vastly added

in session Is doubtless the most import
that has convened for many years. The

Congress will have to deal with many
new and important questions. With

The citizens of Washington take Con.
gress as q matter of course. With the
old babitues, Congress is no great attrac-
ton. Distinguished public men create
no sensation. There are too many Of
them. But never in the memory of
anyone living has there been such an
interesting parsonage in the White
House as President Theodore Roosevelt
and more is hoped from him by optim-
lists who believe in popular government
than from any previous president. There
are thousands who would be willing to
give him autOcratic power, and if the
country backs him to the end as popu-
lar sentiment is backing him now, he
will have the equivalent Of autocratic
power and be able to test those reforms
In the civil, naval ard military estab-
lishments for which his name is syn
onym. Distinguished as publicist, as
a soldier, and as statesman, be is even
more distinguished as a reformer and
as terror to political corruptlonlsts
and that horde of conacienceless polite.
ians who haye go long regarded public
Office as a private perquisite. If he
succeeds in downing this horde, he will
make frmer and fairer the foundations
of the republic, and the superstructure
for a thousand years will bear the
marks of his master hand.

For twenty years the Senate has been gain.
ing on the House. 1t has seized one advan-
tage after another until it has things about
its own way. Its limited membership and
unlimited debate gives Individual Senators
free play The House has grown so big that
it has been compelled to cut off debate and
put arbitrary power in the hands of the
Speaker 1t has to act promptly as unit
il it is to act at all. On questions Of lcgisla.
ton where serious differences arise with the
Senate it frequently has TO take measure
or reject it just as it stands. 1t originates
legislation. 1t sends bill over to the Se.
ate and the Senate amends it. 1t is in the
power of q small group CT Senator's and
sometimes, at the close of session, in the
power Of single Senator, to prevent the
passage of any bill There are times when
any Senator with small following, by
threatening long debate, Can compel amend,
ments which are satisfactory to him. A
measure, thus amended so as to insure the
support of ma jOrity of the Senate, goes
back to the House where it originated. If
it is measure involving party policy the
House has to take it or else run the risk of
sending it back to the Senate again with
amendments that will arouse limtless dis.
cussion importing its fate. In nine cases
out of ten the House, under protest, will ac'
cept the Senate amendments rather than run
the risk of defeating the bill altogether. and
right here is where master of legislation
like Aldrich has his power Having secured
the kind of bill he wants in the Senate he
convnces the House that it must take that
or nothing.
