The most vigorous workers have
spells of "tired feeling" now and
then. This feeling is caused by de-
rangement in the stomach, liver and
bowels. A few doses of PRlCKLY
ASH BITTERS quickly corrects the
disorder and sends the blood tingling
through the veins, carrying life and
renewed energy throughout the sys-
tenn. A. G. Thornton Special Agent.

READY FOR BUSINESS
Congressmen and Senators Securely
 Settled in Washington.

Washington, Dec. 2-Washington is lively once more on the eve of the opening Of congress. For the last few days every train has been loaded with senator's and members. until now nearly all are here. The Hobbies of the various hotels are crowded and there is considerable gossip and speculation as to what will be done. All realize that this ought to be very important session but when you pin each prophet down to what will really be accom- plished you can get nothing definite from any one. All agree that the sub. ject of railway regulations of some sort will be the first topic introduced At least fifty bills on this subject twill be presented early in the session and the conimittees will have a hard time to decide which one to report. There will be an earnest endeavor to pas ssome measure of this kind but just what it will be now no one seems to know.
 There are ugly rumors about the Panama canal and the members are apt to speak their minds freely on the subject. They want to know what has been done with the money and what has been accomplished. Then. too. comes the question what kind of canal is to be built This decision rests with congress and it may be some time before anything definite is determined upon. In the mean rlme the canal commissioners will be held to strict account and if congress does not like what they have done they will be dealt with summarily.
 Little will be done next week. or for that matter until after the Christ mas holidays. The committees will not be announced until just before the recess and no work can be done until the house is organized for business. The senate will adjourn almost imme- diately on Monday out of respect for the late Senator Platt of Connecticut. A date for eulogies on his death will be set later. Tn the house the drawing for seats will take practically the whole afternoon. On Tuesday the presidents message will be sent in and read. 1t is expected to be an in- teresting document but no one really knows what it contains. The caucus es will be held this afternoon and to-
 NhN first. They will choose for their lead CT John Sharp Williams. and will also go through the form of selecting the minor officers of the house. There will be no opposition to the election of Speaker Cannon at the republican caucus and the other officers of the house will be continued.
 The Connecticut members are now all there and settled for the winter. Senator Bulkeley has taken a house at the corner of R and Twenty-second streets. If is a fine house known as the Corbin house. Senator Bulkcley will be the only one of the Connecticut delegation who will keep house this winter. Senator Brandegee is occupy ing his old quarters at the Cochran hotel.

Mir Sperry at tho Buckingham. where he has lived for ten years. and Mir IIiil at the Cochran Mir Higgins fs also at the Cochran So it will he seen that the Connecticut members are staying close together as they have in tie past
