OUTLOOK IN CONGRESS.
Statehood Bill Before the House and
Antitrust Measure in the Senate.

Statehood Bill Before the House and
Anti Trust Measure in the Senate.
The antitrust bill, which was sched-
uled for early consideration in the house
this week. will not come, up until
late in the week, if at all, and possibly
may be postponed until next week. The
friends of the currency bill are exceed
ingly anxious to get consideration tor
finally should be decided to allow the
currency bill to come in after the post
ONCE appropriation bill is disposed of,
the antitrust bill will be shut out this
week. The Democrats and Republicans
have been comforting about the limit
of the antitrust bill debate, and
tentative agreement has been reported
to allow two days general debate on
the measure.
The omnibus statehood bill will con-
tinue for the present to hold its place
as the unfinished business on the SEN
ate calendar, but it seems quite prob
able that the discussion of the state
hood sbill will come up in connection
with the appropriation bills. Senator
Quay has entirely changed his tactics
during the past week, and after trying
in vain to secure a quorum for night
sessions on two different occasions, has
abandoned all efforts in that direction,
leaving the senators who oppose the
statehood bill to take the responsible
ity for delay

ment her husband might not suddenly

RENOUNCED HIS RIGHTS.
Story That Saxon Crown Prince Has
Abdicated.


A curious story widely told In the
provincial and Berlin papers is that the
crown prince of Saxony is determined
to renounce his succession to the
throne in favor of his son, George, who
is 10 years of age. The reason given
is that the military code of honor does
not permit husband wronged as he
has been to remain in the service. The
Rhenish Courier of Wiesbaden says
without reservation that the crown
prince has renowned his right to sue
cession to the throne and the Berlin
Morgen Posts Dresden correspondent
says he has already appealed to the
emperor to relieve him of all military
positions.

NATURES OWN CURE.
Hyomei Cures catarrh Without Dan
gerous Dragging Of the Stomach.

Not until Hyomei was discovered has
1t been possible to truthfully say that
q remedy for catarrh was known.
This remedy is breathed thru the Hy-
omei inhaler for a few minutes four
times day, and during that time every
particle of air taken into the air pass
ages and lungs is impregnated with
the germ killing and health giving
Hyomei. 1t is the only treatment that
cures catarrh.
Stomach drugging often causes dis
ordered digestion or brings on some
other diseases and never makes a per-
manent cure of catarrh. Hyomei not
only kills the germs in the throat and
rose but penetrates to the minutest air
cells in the lungs and enters the blood
with the oxygen, killing the germs in
the blood. II frees the mucous mem
brane from poisonous microbes and
gives perfect health.
A complete outfit costs but 81, and in
cludes an inhaler, dropper and sufficient
Hyomei for more than months treat
ment.
Mcbride & Will have so much faith
in the merit of Hyomei that they agree
to- return the money to any purchaser
who may be dissatisfied.
