if an extra session of the Legis-
lature is called to rectify some
of their plumbers. which now
seems to be likely. Ii was as
certained on Tuesday after the
Legislature had adjourned that
the House had failed to pass the
Senate bill fixing the state tax
rate. as result there is no tax
rate. and without taxes the
State government cannot be
run. Ii is said by eminent au
thority that an extra session of
the Legislature will be neces-
sary To rectify this omission.
which it is claimed was caused
by the Straus combination en-
deavoring To kill bills with the
endorsement of Senator Spencer
Jones on them. AS the Chair
man of the Senate Finance
Committee Mr. Jones endorsed
this bill and the combination
buried il with several of his
bills they desired to kill. So
Mr.. Straus is not so sweet after

Better Than Pills,

The question has been asked. I'm
what way are Chamberlain Stomach
Il Liver Tablets superior to pills ?" Our
answer is: They are easier and more
pleasant to take. more mild and gentle
in effect and more reliable as they can
always be depended upon. Then they
cleanse and invigorate the stomach and
leave the bowels in a natural condition,
while pills are more harsh in effect and
their use is often followed by constipa
ton. For sale by p. ID. Cottingham &

Wages on American Ships.

Beyond the larger first cost Of Amer
lean built ships another weighty fac
tor in the question Of how to revive
the American merchant marine is the
wide difference i'll shipboard wages be-
tween this country and it's European
competitors. This difference in wages
Is not characteristic Of the high speed
mail steamers alone. In the report Of
the commissioner Of navigation for
1900 there is comparison of the pay
rolls Of the American cargo steamer
Pleiades and the British cargo steam
ers Lady Joicey and MasconomO, all Of
about $500 tons. The twenty-six Off
GERS and men Of the American ship re-
ceive $1,215 month, or S14,5S0 year.
in wages. The thirty officers and MEL
of one British ship receive S9G1 q
month. or S11,532 a year. and the thir-
ty-two officers and men of the other
British ship receive 1919 a month. or
S11.751 year. Practically the same
difference will be found in the wages
on board American and British sailing
vessels.-Winthrop L. Marvin in Scrlb-

One Of the great advantages OF glyc'

fact that it neither freezes nor evap-
,orates under any ordinary temperature.
No perceptible loss by evaporation has
.been detected Mt q temperature less
than 200 degrees F.. but if heated in
tensely it decomposes with smell that
few persons find themselves able to en-
dure. 1t burns with a pale name, SIM
liar to that from alcohol, If heated to
about 300 degrees and then ignited.
Its homeopathic qualities make the
compound Of much use as vehicle
for holding pigments and colors. as In
stamping and typewriter ribbons. car
bon papers and the like.
If the pure glycerin be exposed fef
n long time to freezing temperature,
it crystallizes with the appearance OF
s,'&ar candy, but these crystals being
o:!cC melted it is almost an impossible
ity to get them again into the con-
Eealed state. If little water be added
to the glycerin, 10 crystallization will
take place, though under a sufficient
degree Of cold the water will separate
and form crystals, amid which the
glycerin will remain in its natural state
of fluidity. If suddenly subjected to
intense cold, pure glycerin will form
gummy mass which cannot be Ell

A man wakes up at early morn
And feels a wintry chill:
He says, I'm wear a heavy saro
That l may not be Ill.
By noon the mercury Is high'
And then he walls because
In such a sultry atmosphere
He Is not wearing gauze.
And then he changes. and anon
There comes a biting breeze,
And all his limbs are shiyering IKE
The limbs upon tine trees.
Alack, when men are civilized
What constant woes befall!
I'd rather dwell in Fill land
Ard wear no clothes at all!
