MAKEUP or NEXT CONGRESS.
Republicans VIII Have a Majority Of -
IN the House

WASHINGTON, Nov. 20. The Republican
majority in the House of Representatives
Of the Sixtieth Congress will be ffty-eight.
according TO the unofficial list issued to-day
by the clerk Of the House. A list had been
printed showing that the Republicans had
elected 221 members and the Democrats 1875.
Since then the official count in the Eighth
Illinois district disclosed that Representa-
tive Charles McGavin, Republican, had been
elected over his Democratic competitor
Stanley Knuzt. This gives the Republicans
ffty-eight majority.
The elections in Oklahoma, which will
probably occur next spring, are likely to
lessen the Republican majority. The re.
cent election indicates hat the Democrats
will carry four and possibly five OF all of
the districts.
Twelve vacancies existed in the House
membership Of the present Congress az the
time Of the recent election. Nine Of these
were filed and three are still vacant because
the vacancies occurred too late to allow
the necessary thirty days notice prior 70 the
regular election. The vacancies which still
exist are in the First district OF California,
occasioned by the election of Representa-
tive Gillett. Republican as Governor; in the
twenty first district OF New York, occa-
stoned bv the death of Representative
Ketcham, and in the Third Massachusetts,.
occasioned by the death of Representative
Hoar.
The filing of vacancies has not resulted in
any change Of the relative political strength
in the two parties in the House. and for the
three remaining vacancies to he filed Re
puhliCans are almost certain to be- chosen.

PHYSICIAN SAYS
Children Thrive on Grape Nuts and
Cream.

A Mass. physician has found cure
for constipation in children = citing
fifteen cases-by feeding them Grape
Nuts.
Some time ago." he writes, Il be-
came interested in your food, Grape
Nuts, as cure for constipation in
children. Having tried it in my own
family, l have advised it in fifteen
cases in which all suffered with con-
stipation more or less severe. The re-
suit has been absolute relief in all
Il write this that other children
may be benefited
How much better it is thus to bring
about a healthy action in the bowels
of growing children by natural means,
than to feed them with improper food,
| requiring some kind of cathartic at
| intervals to overcome constipation.
Grape-Nuts gives energy to the en-
tire nervous system including the
nerves that cause the natural con-
traction and relaxation of the bowel
muscles, that propel the food mass
along.
1t is predigested also and the blood
easily absorbs the food as it goes
through the body, storing up vitality
| and force for the functions of all the
organs.
Children especially, should get the
| right start as to habits of living.
| They should grow into bright, strong,
cheerful men and women. Grape-Nu
solve the question of the start; a
wholesome appetite will do the rest.
Children's teeth are benefited by
chewing Grape-Nuts, also. Your dent
list will tell you that certain amount
of exercise in chewing firm food, is
necessary to grow strong, beautiful
teeth.
Teeth need exercise just the same
as muscles, if they are to grow
strong and firm as nature intended
| Grape-Nuts gives the exercise and
also gives material from which good
teeth are made.
There's a reason" Read the little
book, THE Road to Wellville," in

College Students as Thinkers.

1t is important for college teachers
to promote the pursuit on the part
of their students of such subjects as,
in their inherent character demand
thinking, and also to promote such
a pursuit of these subjects as does
promote thinking. says Charles F.
Theving in North American Review
Mathematics is a subject which de
mands thinking. 1t is thinking: 1t Is
nothing else. History may be pre-
sented as matter of acquisition; II
also may be presented as a matter OF
weighing evidence, as study OF
cause and effect. Economics is a sub
ject which specially offers opportuni
ties for such study as develops think.
ing Its phenomena are complex, and
the causes which prevail in its field
are often obscure. These studies, and
similar ones, offer a special advan
tage in creating and nourishing the
power of thinking.

BOYS TERRIBLE ECZEMA.
Mouth and Eyes Covered with Crusts
Hands Pinned Down-Miracu-
lous Cure by Cuticura.

when my little boy was six months
old, he had eczema. The sores extend
ed SO quickly over the whole body
that we at once called in the doctor.
We then went to another doctor,
but he could not help him, and in our.
despair we went to third one. Mat
ters became so bad that he had resu-
lar holes in his checks, large enough
to put finger into. The food had to
be given with spoon, for his mouth
was covered with crusts as thick as
a finger, and whenever he opened the
mouth they began to bleed and sup
purate, as did also his eyes. Hands,
arms. chest and back, in short the
whole body was covered over and
over. We had no rest by day or night.
Whenever he was laid in his bed, we
had to pin his hands down; otherwise
he would scratch his face and make
an open sore. | think his face must
have itched most fearfully.
I'VE finally thought nothing could
help, and | had made up my mind to
send my wife with the child to Eu-
rope, hoping that the sea air might
cure him, otherwise he was to be put
under good medical care there. But,
Lord be blessed. matters came differ
emily. and we soon saw miracle. a
friend of ours spoke about Cuficura.
We made Il trial with Cuticura Soap,
Ointment and Resolvent, and within
ten days or two weeks we noticed a
decided improvement. Just as quickly
as the sickness had appeared 1t also
u-ith
weeks the child was absolutely well.
and his skin was smooth and white
as never before. f. Hohrath, Presi-
