States. Thousands of women gather to
hear her lecture everywhere she goes.
The great work she has done for the
Maccabees is appreciated by every
member of the order She was so alb
sorbed in her work that size neglected
to give her health proper care-failed
to take warning that the symptoms of
approaching kidney trouble gave her,
the sallow complexion and torpid liver.
But Wine of Cardui cured her the same
as it has cured thousands of others and
Mrs. Mcdonald has written this letter in
order that other suffering women may
secure from Wine of Cardui the same
relief she got from it.
"For four years suffered with torpid
liver until my skin looked yellow and dull.
! then found my kidneys were affected and
had severe pains across my back, and felt

strongly that ] decided to
try it. although ! had little
faith in patent medicines.

ever since. knoas there is nothing better
for sick woman who wishes to enjoy per-
feet health and am very pleased to give my
hearty endorsement"
No suffering woman can afford to
ignore such letter as Mrs. Mcdonald
writes. Her plans and advice have
proved valuable in building up one Of
the greatest women's organizations in
the United States and she takes time to
give advice which she knows will help
you.
Do not delay in securing this medi-
cine. There is nothing to gain and
everything to lose by delay. The choice
is before you. viii or viii you not
secure relief now by taking Wine of
Cardui? All druggists sell 81 90 bottles
of Wine of Cardui as well as 25c pack

57TH CONGRESS-.
The Senate Seems Opposed to
the CIoture Rule.
Unsuccessful Attempt to Work It on
Statehood Bill.
House Rejects Conference on the Army
Bill.

Washington, Feb. 1S.-There was q
lively debate in the Senate, today. over
Quay's resolution declaring it to be the
sense Of the Senate that there should
be q vote on the statehood bill before
the adjournment of Congress. To this
proposition, McComas re-offered Platt's
cloture resolution introduced two years
ago and Il motion was made 10 refer
the whole proposition to the committee
on rules. This was pending when the
Senate went into executive session. The
discussion of the subject brought out
the fact that the Senate was strongly
opposed to cloture in any form. The
debate WAS very general. a dozen sena-
tors expressing their opinions on the
subject.
The Senate spent three and a half
hours in executive session, listening
nearly all the time to continuation of
Morgan's speech on the Panama canal
treaty. AT the close of the days ses-
sion a vote was taken at Morgan's re-
quest on his resolution requesting an
inquiry into the credentials of Tomas
Herran, who represented the Colom-
bian government in negotiating the
treaty and also suggesting the irregu-
larity of the Colombian government.
The resolution was defeated, Ii to SO.
There We're two calls for a quorum
during the session, but senators re-
sponded readily. showing that while
they We're not present in the Senate
chamber, many of them We're in the
nearby committee rooms. Senator Nor
gan spoke principally on this resolu-
finn had % cInrlx n rtN-
port on it which he had prepared and
had printed as a minority of the COM
mittee on inter-oceanic canals.
