RIGHTS OF STATES.
Discussion in Connection With
the Pure Food Bill.

lA0 - AOO~
Washington, June 22.-Pure food
held the attention Of the House
throughout today. The constitution
al features of the pure food bill were
debated by the leading lawyers OF
the House, the Democrats splitting
wide on the question whether the
! bill took away from the State their
| police powers. Various features ap-
! piica bic " localities and interests
| were discussed earnestly, but 1t was
early apparent that the bill practical,
ly IN the form IL came from III
the Interstate and foreign COM
merce would be adopted.
MIR. Adanlson, OF Georgia, opened
the discussion today In opposition to
| certain features Of the bill. During
| his argument Mr.. Adamson was
under a running fire Of questions,
Mr.. Bourke Cochran taking excep-
ton to the position Of the Speaker as
to State rights.
| MI. Richardson (Ala.) congrasu
, lated the friends of pure food, not
only in the House, but throughout
the country for the decided progress
Congress has made in the last eight
years in the Identification of food
and drink. He referred to tbs 'fell-
ed cheese'' bill, the "mixed hour''
bill, the ''bottle and bond'' act, and
the oleomargarin bill where Congress
had resorted to its extraordinary
power of taxation in order to secure
the therein. He was led to believe
that the majority OF the members Of
the House were in favor of pure food
) legislation, but while he was a pro-
found believer in pure food, he woulo
like to have the amended in some
respects.
, The gentleman from Alabama
took up the consideration Of straight
as against "rectifed" whiskey, Mr.
. Richardson being in favor of tn
"straightn article and wanting tn

these lines, he said that as a tenn

Washington, June 2 .-The Senate

resolution:
"That the people of the United
States are Mortified by the reports of
the massacre of Hebrews in Russia
on account of their ace aud religion,
and that those bereaved thereby
have the hearty sympathy of the
people of the country"
The resolution was adopted with~

Representative Gill (Mi.), offered

the House such Off :ial Information

tails of the Bialystock massacres.
1t does not now seem likely, how

Jews in Russia. Since the recent
massacre the administration has
been considering requests that this

Scarless Surgery.

Scarless surgery Is one of the lat

The London surgeon who conceived
the idea and successfully put it in
practice is unable to meet the de-
mands for his services. The idea is
a simple one. In making the first in.
cision the scalpel does not cut the
skin at right angles with the surface,
but passes through it at a slant. After
the operation is over the skin is joined

treating them afterward. leaving the
operations proper to others.-Cleve.

and investigating mind, an earnest
seeker after knowledge, and above
all, possessed of a wonderfully sympa-
thetic nature.
In ls43 she married Isaac Pinkham,
a builder and real estate operator, and
their early married life was marked by
prosperity and happiness. They had
four children, three sons and =
daughter.
In those good old fashioned days it
was common for mothers to make
their own home medicines from roots
and herbs, natures own remedies
calling in a physician only in specially
urgent cases. BY tradition and ex-
perience many of them gained a won
derful knowledge of the curative prop
critics of the various roots and herbs.
Mrs. Pinkham took a great interest
in the study of roots and herbs, their
characteristics and power over disease.
She maintained that just as nature so
beautifully provides in the harvest
fields and orchards vegetable foods of
all kinds; so, if we hut take the pains
to find them, in the roots and herbs
of the field there are remedies ex-
pressly designed to cure the various
ills and weaknesses of the body, and
it was her pleasure to search these out,
and prepare simple and effective medi.
cines for her own family and friends.
Chief OF these was a rare combina-
ton of the choicest medicinal roots
and herbs found best adapted for the
cure of the ills and weaknesses pecu-
liar to the female sex, and Lydia E. Pink
hams friends and neighbors learned
that her compound relieved and cured
and it became quite popular among
them.
All this so far was done freely, with
out money and without price, al u
labor of love.
But in 1873 the financial crisis struck
Lynn. Its length and severity were too
much for the large real estate interests
of the Pinkham family, as this class
of business suffered most from
fearful depression, so when the Cen ten
nial year dawned it found tn sir prop
erty swept away. Some other source
of income had to be found.
At this point Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound was made known
to the world.

A Two Thousand Year Clock.

Richard Strut, son of Lord Ray
leigh, has invented clock that will
run for 1000 years. The motive pow
er is a small piece of gold leaf, which
is electrified by means of a very
small quantity of radium salt. The
gold leaf bends away from the met
al substance and keeps moving I'M

side of the containing vessel At the
moment of contact it loses it's cleo

The sun has revealed an interest

light the archaeologists of the en-
tire country. At Castle Park, Col
chester, as elsewhere, the great heat
of the last few weeks has consider
ably modified the natural greenness
of the grass. But in one place there
were noticed parallel and transverse
baids of grass which were much
browner than the surrounding YER
dure. Closer examination showed
that the brown bands formed the
ground plan of a spacious Roman
villa. The shallow soil over the
ruined walls of the villa had been
dried more thoroughly than the deep
er soil on either side of them, and
thus the sun had made a tracing OF

tists.-Dundee Advertiser.

eager pleading hands were out
stretched.

giddy whirl Of Eddie's thoughts, but
these alone made an impression:
You need not go back to your

The child closed his eyes and rover
knew that his head rested against
Judge Findley's arm or that the po-

Mrs. Bright, of the Detention Home,

motherly tenderness.
"Sure!" with plucky cheer.
She held him so tight under one
arm while leading him past His

feeble attempt at "joshin'."

A Few First Aid Hints.

The following first aid advice was
given at a meeting of railway sur.
geons:
Don't put your finger on an open
wound; don't put a quid of tobacco
on wound, no matter how small it
may be; don't use cobwebs or hor-
nets nest to stop bleeding; don't dose
the patient with whisky, brandy, rum
or gin; don't bind or cover a wound
with a handkerchief or rag (if you
cannot get first aid packet use clean
old muslin that has been dipped in
boiling water for few minutes);
don't sit a patient up when he is very
pale or weak; don't wash a wound,
and don't remove blood clots."
These hints are meant for public
instruction for those of the laity who
may have occasion to extend aid in
case of accident.
