THE OLD SILVER DOLLAR.

How dear to our hearts is the old
silver dollar,
When some kind subscriber pre-
sents it to view
The liberty head, without necktie
or collar,
And all the strange things that to
us seem so new;
The wide spreading eagle, the arrows
below it,
The stars and the words with the
queer things they tell,
The coin of our fathers! We're glad
that we know it,
For some time or other twill come
in right well.

PERFECT FOOD.

Scientist Declares Milk to Contain all
Nourishment Needed.
Writing in the New York Post, Va,
lancey Il. Fuller, lecturer on sanitary
milk, New York State Farmers Insti-.
tute, says:
"rhe only complete and perfect
food is milk. In it are flesh-formers
and heatmakers. in the right proper
tions, properly balanced. The same
can be said of no other food. Those
who have lived on farms know that
pasture is a. perfect food for cattle,
and that if any other, food is given
them in its place, it must be balanced
by other foods. Milk is like pasture,
1t is a perfectly balanced ration in it
self, and there is no necessity of par
taking Of any other food, unless we
desire it,
This accounts for the fact that we
can-liYe and do hard days work on
milk alone, for milk contains all of
the nntritiye ingredients needed for
food, and is thoroughly and easily di-
gested. a case in point is that of
Mrs. Mary Fay, Il resident of this
CITY, who lived to he los years of age,
and whose sole diet for the last so
years of her life was bread and milk
Her body was said to be as we'll nour-

live on milk and whey, is also well

BILLS, BUT HIS MOTIVE is I'M
PUGNED BY MR.. DALZELL.

Washington, May 25.-W hie in commit
tee of the whole the House today acted
upon PSI pension bills. Little or no de-
bate ensued. Mr.. Williams, the minority
leader announced after the second bill
was under consideration that he intended
until a conference report could be had on
statehood But in view of the fact that
demagogues might distort the opposition
of the democracy to pensions, when there
was no opposition to such bills, he would
withhold his objections for the present
After twenty-four bills had been passed.
Mr. Williams called for a division on the
bill to grant a pension to James T. San
derson of Fowler, Ind. The division show
ed the absence of quorum and the speak
er directed a call of the House.
Meantime Mr.. Dalzell of Pennsylvania
appeared and after having explained that
he was in the corridor asked II this was
democratic filibuster against a Union
soldier.
Mr.. Williams: II just want to know II
the gentleman Is sincere In that state-
ment."
Mr.. Macon Of Arkansas called Mr.. Dali
zelrs attention to the fact that members
did not vote In corridors but in the House,
which brought a round of applause.
At 5:45 p. m. quorum was secured and
the bill passed
The remaining bills were disposed of at
the rate of twenty-five a minute. At 6
o clock the House took recess until IL
o'clock tomorrow morning.
