RUBBER TRAVELLING CASE.

It's always question what to do
with sponge and toothbrush or a wash
rag when you're travelling. if it's only
the tiny overnight trip. So, if you're
thinking of making a Christmas gift
for some one who is going away. try
a rubber case for these very things.
Get sheet rubber (the light color is
best and tape there's regular tape
that comes for binding rubber). and for
covering a thin silk, or, better still. one

so that the wet things can't stain it.

which grow larger in spite of the most
careful handling.
Line pieces of the covering with the
rubber for the patch pockets and stitch
rubber lined bands for the comb and
brush holder. The long pocket at the
bottom is for the wash rag and the bic
pocket for the sponge, while the tooth

very useful in the summer when She
takes her knitting on the beach or in
the fields during the summer holidays.
Two new corks--the size of those
used for wine bottles-are required.
THESE must be cut down to about an
inch in length and have the tops round

ana tightly with flannel or any soft
material and take care there is no
join over the fat end of the cork. Now
take a nice piece of fairly wide col

shorter In length than the knitting nee
dies you use most frequently and at
tach it at either end to the corks. Make
the outside cover for the caps, which
can be any pretty material joining the
sides, turning in the raw edges at the
bottom and stitching down to the fan

caps are completed, and very useful
they are as protection to the points of

in the vicinity of Georgetown. Most
of them have fanciful names in Dutch
or French, such as mountaineering"
Good Expectations of Hope; ''Melgre

the manager, his overseers and book
keepers, and the usual mighty force of
male and female laborers, with law
yer and agent in Georgetown, not to
mention those in the mother country.
Two thousand acres of growing cane is
considered a modest estate: on this
perhaps 1900 men and women are con-

While we were in jacksonville Senator
Tallieferro came down and removed his
family to Washington until the adjourn
ment of Congress. Since the great fire the
Senator has built residence on Julia street,
near the Seminole Club. 1t is truly a mag

one of the grandest in Florida. Our own

in very high regard and it is matter of
pride that he and his family have expressed

However, there is one point Cd which
feel utmost certainty. 1t poses as free

down this way but salvation, and the Pres

Commonly, the first symptom of q rcold !"
is a chilly feeling accompanied by sneez-
ing, or tickling in the throat The most
frequent of external causes are draurhts,
wet or cold feet. or going from hot rooms
suddenly into cold ones. More frequently
there is an inner cause-namely the staRna-
ton of the blood caused by constipation or
biliousness. Almost the first symptom is
the feeling ofcold in the feet and increased
discharge from the nose.
No one ever takes cold unless consti-
pated, or exhausted, and having what we
call NAL nutrition which is attended with
impoverished blood and exhaustion ofnsrve
force. Tonics consisting of large portions
of alcohol, iron or cod liver oil do not bring
the desired changes in the blood because
they do not enter the system and are not
absorbed into the blood with the exception
of the alcohol, which shrivels up the red
blood corpuscles when it does come in
contact with them. We recommend the
botanical extract of DR.. Pierce because it
contains no alcohol, and offers reasonable
and scientific method of treating the blood
by improving the nutritive functions of the
patient. The Golden Medical Discovery
accomplishes this, by first restoring the
enfeebled digestive organs, so that food,
the natural tissue builder, will be digested
and assimilated.
Accept no substitute for DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery. There is moth
ing "just as good" for diseases of the
stomach.

this had proved itself on a recent moon

the basement to the sixth story, the lights
glowing like jewels through the branches

THIS SESSION
Opposition Prepared to Keep
Measure From Reaching \
Vote by Filibustering
Special Dispatch to The Call.

CALL BUREAU, POST BUILDING,
WASHINGTON, Jan. At Is safe to
say that the statehood bill, given the
right of way in the Senate to-day, will
not pass at this session. The Demo-
Gratis are united against it and show
an intention to filibuster. Senator Tel
Ter in an interview tonight said fatty
that the bill would not be allowed to
come to a vote. Senator Foraker, who
introduced an amendment, which re-
uuires a majority vote of both Arizona
and New Mexico to rake the law OPP
erative, also stated in an interview
that the bill would never pass in it's
present shape. Teler's opposition to
the bill would probably be withdrawn
IL Foraker's amendment prevails. Sem
ator Bard will make a speech against
the bill tomorrow.
Upon reconvening to-day~after the
holiday recess the Senate plunged d.
rectly into the consideration Of the
statehood bill. The reading Of the bill
being concluded, Bate moved to re-
commit that measure because the tes-
timony taken before the Committee on
Territories had not been reported, rem
dering it difficult to make a minority
report. He pleaded against undue
haste In the matter and argued against
the consolidation OF the four Terrific
ries into two States.
Referring to the proposed union Of
Arizona and New Mexico, he said they
would make State of greater area
than is comprised in all the New Eng
land States, with New York, New Jer-
sey and Pennsylvania added. The only
reason for the consolidation was found
he said, in the desire to prevent an in
crease of United States Senators.
Bates motion was voted down, Is to
81, Hepburn voting with the Democrats
for recommittal.
Nelson supported the bill as reported
by the committee. Referring especially
to the Territories Of Oklahoma and In
dian Territory, he said they were SC
constituted as to be the complement
each of the other. Nelson had not con-
cluded, when on motion OF Cullon
the Senate at 4:16 p. m. adjourned out
of respect to the memory Of Represen-
tatfye Mahoney of Illinois.

of the Government in the case of
