afternoon of last week ratified the Cuban
Reciprocity treaty and adjourned its extra
session sine die. AS ratified the treaty,
which is to remain in effect for FIVE years,
contains the provision that Congress
must act upon it before it becomes law

necessary for the Cuban Congress to
again act upon the proposition, as it was
not contained in the convention recently
ratified by the Cuban Congress.

Consumption is a human
weed fourishing best in weak
lungs. Like other weeds it's
easily destroyed while young
when old, sometimes i'm.
possible.
Strengthen the lungs as you
would weak land and the
weeds will disappear.
The best lung fertilizer is
SCOTS Emulsion. Salt pork
is good too, but it is very hard
to digest.
The time to treat consump-
ton is when you begin trying
to hide it from yourself.
Others see it, you won't.
Don't wait until you can't
deceive yourself any longer.
Begin with the first thought
to take SCOTS Emulsion. If
it isn't really consumption so
much the better; you will soon
forget it and be better for the
treatment. If it is consump-
ton you can't expect to be
cured at once, but if you will
begin in time and will be
rigidly regular in your treat
ment you will win.
SCOTS Emulsion, fresh air,
rest all you can, eat all you
can, that's the treatment and
that's the best treatment.

From our regular correspondent.

WASHINGTON, March 24th, 1903.
The Anthracite Coal Strike Commis-
sion has made its awards and the Presi-
dent has caused them to be made public.
By the terms of the agreement entered
into between the operators and the min
ers these awards stand until the 31st OF
March, 1906 and therefore, danger of
another coal famine is averted for that
period. By the decision of the commits
per cent increase in wages beginning with
April of last year aud continuing through
out the period. Moreover, if the average
wholesale price of coal, pea size, goes
above $3.50 per ton, they are to receive an
increase of wages amounting to per cent
for each cents increase. Men working
Q hours are also to be paid on 10 hour
basis. A "conciliatory joint committee"
is provided for in each mining district. 1t
will be composed of three members APP
pointed by the operators and three ap-
pointed by the miners and to it shall be
referred all differences, while in the event
that an agreement cannot be reached, a
seventh, who shall cast the deciding vote,
shall be called in. The miners are allow
ed all the check weighers they may de-
mand but they are TO pay them themselves.
The operators are required to pay conf
missioner who shall be appointed by a
Circuit Judge and whose duty it shall be
to determine the average wholesale price
of coal Among the general recommen-
dations of the Commission is one recon-.
mending that the custom of employing
special police shall be abolished and also
one urging that the existing child labor
laws be enforced.
