Philadelphia Ledger-The Senate of the
United States ia composed, for the most
part, of men old enough to realize the
dignity Of their position, and to know the
difference between debating and quar-
reling: but too many of its members can
not enquire into, much less debate. an
important subject without losing their
tempers. This is an infrmity that should
be- but never is. taken into consideration
when elacting them.

one Of the glOries of a stage to which
glory is by no means stranger. In pay

Italians do honor TO themselves and bear

JOIN THE CROWD.

The New Northwest is increasing
from immigration, by 100000 people
yearly. This region offers a field for
farmers, stock raisers, miners, lum-
bermen, millers, fruit growers and all
classes Of labor. The Cody-Wyoming
extension into the Big Horn Region
offers a splendid opening for the live
stock and wool business and for farm
ing by irrigation.
The industrial expansion that is
now the basis of wealth in the East,
will be repeated in the Northwest.

It will be good news TO the mothers
OF small children to learn that Group
can be prevented. The first sign OF
Group is hoarseness. A day or two
before the attack the child becomes
hoarse. This Is soon followed by a
peculiar rough cough. Give Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy freely as soon
as the child becomes hoarse, or even
after the rough cough appears, and It
will dispel all symptoms of Group. In
this way all danger and anxiety may
be avoided. This remedy is used by
many thousands of mothers and has
never been known to fail II Is, In

be depended upon and that is pleasant
