The senate still has six or seven big
appropriations bills to pass. This fact,
however, causes no apprehension.
They can all be passed in ten days.

the passage of the army bill last week.

The legislative bill will take only a

days. That is the way the senators
dispose of matters that have been fully
thrashed out and which do not in

Monday afternoon Burlington To-
connective pulling freight train from
the east came into the yards wearing
the national colors, due to collision
with the paint car necr the Santa Fe
viaduct. A gang of painters were out
painting and had their paints on an
ordinary hand car when a freight train
was seen rapidly approaching The
car was lifted from the track but
did not clear the pilot of the engine
and for a moment there was shower
of paint, a considerable amount of
which decorated the engine. No one
was injured, however, and the car was
but slightly damaged, SO that it was
repaired Monday night and sent out
on the road again this morning.

RIGHT NOURISnMENT.

We think of nourishment
as food-meats, soups, vege-
tables, ETC., but that's only half.
It's not the food alone that
counts but the good that we
get from food that furnishes
nourishment. A pound of
steak is of less value to a
weak stomach than a crust OF
bread is to a strong digestion.
But weak stomachs can be
made strong. Begin by eat
ing less; have regular hours
for meals; avoid fancy things
and about a half hour after
eating take a tablespoonful OF
Scett's Emulsion. It's a fact
of medical history that people
have lived on not much else
but SCOTS Emulsion for a
long time-not only lived but
gained flesh and recovered
their strength and health.
From the pure Norwegian
cod liver oil to the last drop
of glycerine, SCOTS Emulsion
contains just the strength
giving and health-building
elements needed for low vital
ity, weak digestion and poorly
nourished bodies.

Someone sent a brick flying into the

The phenomenal case has interested
physicians. DR.. william J. Horton, the

that the bullet was the cause OF death.
Lane was eighteen years old. and in 1898

pond at Bristol. They were playing with a
revolver, when 1t was accidentally dis
charged.
The bullet. OF 30 callbre, entered Lanes

mind. A few days ago he took cold and
was taken home. He continued TO grow
worse and grip set in, with a high fever.
