Senator Pettus, of Alabama, is de-
scribed as "theyoungest old man" in
either House of Congress. 1t is believ-
that no other man ever began a
Senatorial career so late in life, as the
Albanian, who first took his seat
in the Senate six years ago when past
seventy-five, and is about to be elect
ed for another term. The Senator is
veteran of the Mexican war and
fought on the wrong side in the re.
bellion. Coming from Alabama he is
of course Democrat, butapart from
that political weakness, discharges his
Senatorial duties with ability and en-.

The Easy PHI.

DeWitt's Little Early Risers do not
grippe nor weaken the system. They
cure biliousness, jaundice, constipa-
ton and inactive livers, by arousing
the secretions, moving the bowels
gently, yet effectually, and giving
such tone and strength to the glands
of the stomach, liver and bowels that
the cause of the trouble is removed
entirely. These famous lepills ex-
ert a decided tonic effect upon the or
gans involved, and if their use is con-
tinued for a few days there will be no
return of the trouble.
