CONSUMPTION AND PNEUMONIA
 HEAD DEATH LIST.
Statistics Show That the Greatest Number of Deaths From Lung
 Trouble Occur in Winter.

The Bureau of Census has published report presenting mortality statistics for the United States for the five cal endar years 1900 to 1904
 As shown in the table, tuberculosis of the lungs and pneumonia were by far the leading causes of death. The greatest number of deaths from lung trouble occur during the winter months. Colds are so prolific of lung trouble that they should not be neg lected. Persons with weak lungs should be especially careful.
 A noted authority on lung trouble advises that as soon as a cold is con- tracted the following simple treatment should be given. The ingredients can be purchased from any prescription druggist at small cost and easily pre- pared in your own home. It is said to be so effective that it will break up cold in twentyfour hours and cure any cough that is curable.
 Take one-half ounce Virgin Oil of Pine (Pure), two ounces of Glycerine and eight ounces of good Whisky. Shake well and take in teaspoonful doses every four hours.
 Be sure that the Virgin Oil of Pine (Pure) is in the original half-ounce vials, which are put up expressly for druggists to dispense. Each vial is se- curely sealed in round wooden case. with engraved wrapper, with the name Virgin Oil of Pine (Pure)-guaran- teed under the Food and Drugs Act, June 30, 1906, prepared only by Leach Chemical Co.,, Cincinnati, O.-plainly printed thereon. There are many rank limitations of Virgin Oil of Pine (Pure) which are put out under various names. such as Concentrated Oil of Pine, Pine Balsam, etc. Never accept these as a substitute for the Pure Vir- gin Oil of Pine, as they will invariably produce nausea and never effect the desired result

Pittsburg, Kan, Aarch.-A Missouri Pacific passenger train which left here at 7:20 o'clock Monday evening was held Up by two men in disguise Lou Jeff, colored miner employed by the Central Coal and Coke Company, was killed because he protested, and W. L. Westlake Of Toledo, O., who with his wife and two children, had been visiting relatives in Kansas, was shot through the hand by stray shot that had been fired at the negro. There were few passengers on the train and the robbers secured only little over S100 cash and a few watches. The men were disguised only with false mustaches and goatees. One tall man weighed between 180 and 190 pounds, and the other was 160 pounds Both wore slOuch hats and dark clothes. They boarded the train here at the station and began working the train as it passed the Kansas City Southern shops. They commenced with the smoking car and one walked ahead with 44-caliber revolver in each hand and quietly asked the pas sengers to shell out" to the man be- hind, who was closely following. They were not far behind the train audi tor and followed him into the last coach. When they came to Jeff il this coach he pulled his revolver an took a shot at the foremost robber, who shot twice at him. The first shot went wide and struck Westlake, but the second struck the negro in the head and killed him instantly. They then quietly made the auditor stand and deliver and hurriedly left the train as it entered the yards at Cornell

CONGRESS- ADJOURNED.
THE FiFTY-NiNTH SESSION CLOS. OF RAILWAY EMPlOYES GOES
 TO PRESIDENT.

Washington, March.-The Fifty. ninth Congress ended at noon Mon day according to the declarations of the presiding officers of the Senate and house, although the clocks in the former marked 1923 D. m. and in the latter 12:15 D. n. The delay was oc- casioned by slight error in the en- rollment of the railway employees hours of service bill and this was the last measure to reach the president
 According to custom, when Con- gress is dying, the res-dent, his cabi- net, the White House staff, occupied the presidents chamber in the Senate wing in order to facilitate the hand ling of business incident to the close of the sess.on. No scenes out of the ordinary occurred in either branch of Congress. In the house the mem bers sang and told stories and bois- terously filled in the last hours. Gen. eral Grosyenor of Ohio, who retired from the house, was presented with handsome silver service by his col leagues of the Fifty-ninth Congress,
 In the Senate the proceedings, as a sort of rebuke to the riotous scenes in the house, were entirely decor ous. Senator Gallinger withdrew the ship subsidy bill and therefore the hlibuster against it was not continued to the end, as had been anticipated. The conference report on the bill regulating the hours of service of railway employees was agreed to.
 Vice President Fairbanks and Speak CT Cannon received the thanks of the minority for the impartial manner in which they had presided over the de Alterations of the two houses and both these officers made speeches express ing gratitude with the words of ap- preciation. In the house Mr Williams of Mississippi, the minority leader, addressing the house, said, that the work performed by the Fifty-ninth Congress would stand as the best work the nation has had in many years.

COFFEE THREsHEO HER.
15 Long Years.

For over fifteen years" writes a patient, hopeful little Ills. woman, while a coffee drinker, I suffered from Spinal Irritation and Nervous trouble. l was treated by good physi- clans, but did not get much relief.
 T never suspected that coffee might be aggravatilg my condition. I was downhearted and discouraged, but prayed daily that I might find some thing to help me.
 Several years ago while at a friends house, l drank a cup of Post um and thought I had never tasted anything more delicious.
 From that time on I used Postum instead of coffee, and soon began to improve in health, so that now I can walk half dozen blocks or more with ease, and do many other things that I never thought I would be able to do again in this world.
 My appetite is good, I sleep well, and find life worth living, indeed. A lady of my acquaintance said she did not like Postum, it was so weak and tasteless.
 T explained to her the difference when it is made right-boiled accord ing to directions She was glad to know this because coffee did not agree with her. Now her folks say they ex- pect to use Postum the rest of their lives" Name given by Postum Co.,, Battle Creek, Mich. Read the little book. "The Road to Wellville," in pkgs. There's a reason"

CHILDREN TORTURED.
cRI Had Running Sores from Ecxsma Boy Tortured by Poison Oak
 Both Cured by Cuticura.

Last year, after having my little girl treated by very prominent phy- sician for an obstinate case of ec- zema, resorted to the Cuticura Rem edies, and was so we'll pleased with the almost instantaneous relief afford ed that we discarded the physicians prescription and relied entirely on the Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Oint- ment, and Cuticura Pills. When we commenced with the Cuticura Rems- dies her feet and limbs were covered with running sores. In about six weeks we had her completely well, and there has been no recurrence of the trouble.
 "Iu July of this year little boy in our family poisoned his hands and arms with poison oak, and in twenty four hours his hands and arms were mass of torturing sores. We used only the Cuticura Remedies, washing his hands and arms with the Cuticura Soap, and anointing them with the Cuticura Ointment. and then gave him the Cuticura Resolvent. h. about three weeks his hands and arms healed up. So we have lots of cause for feeling grateful for the Gu ticura Remedies. We find that the Cuticura Remedies are valuable household standby, living as we do twelve miles from a doctor.
