SAYS THIS is BEST.

A leading health journal
in answering the question,
'What is the best prescrip.
ton to clean and purify the
blood?" prints in a recent
issue the following: Fluid
Extract of Dandelion one
half ounce, Compound Kar-
gon one ounce, Compound
Syrup Sarsaparilla three
ounces. Shake we'll and
use in teaspoonful doses
after each meal and at bed
time.
A we'll known local drug
gist states that these are
harmless vegetable ingredi
ents, which can be obtained
from any good prescription
pharmacy.
This mixture will clean
the blood of all impurities.
In just a few days the skin
begins to clear of sores,
boils and pimples. 1t puts
vigor and energy into run
down, debilltated men and
women. For many years
Sarsaparilla alone has been
considered a good blood
medicine:r But while it
built up and made new
blood, the impurities re-
manned within and the good
accomplished was only tenn
porary. Sarsaparilla, how:
ever, when used in com BIZ
nation with, Compound Kar-
gon and Extract Dandelion,
works wonders. This COM
bination puts the kidneys
to work to filter and sift out
the waste matter, uric acid
and other impurities that
cause disease. 1t makes
new blood and relieves
rheumatism and lame back
and bladder troubles.

Already six Carnegie hero

The hog that the farmer has

After the packers have warmed

The venerable Senator Platt
has said that when his term ex.
pires in 1909 he will retire from
public life. Platt ought to retire
now. He is not doing his state or
his country one whit. of good.
Physically he is about all in
and cannot possibly attend to the
duties which should devolve
upon man Der of the upper
house of congress. He is a fit
subject for a sanitarium.

FIGHT ON TEMPERANCE
Difference Of Opinion in Presby.
terian General Assembly.
HEAD OF COMMITTEE QUITS

Refuses to Remain Chairman of Body
Which Promises to Be the "Bone
Of Contention and the Target for
the Shafts of the Opposition"
Columbus, O., May 2 The first in
dication in the general Presbyterian
assembly Of the smouldering but
threatening antipathy toward the tenn
perance report came during the day
when Dr. David Wills, Jr., of Oswego,
N. Y, appointed Friday by Dr.. Will
lam H. Roberts, moderator, handed in
his-resi gnation with an absolute re-
fusal to serve upon this committee.
He gave as his reason that he did not
care to be at the head of committee
which will be the bone Of contention
and the target for the shafts of those
opposed to the report.
When interviewed later, however,
DR.. Wills said he resigned because of
reasons that he did not care to dis
cuss. They were not because Of the
merits of the case," he declared. He
ADMITTEDLY however, that he did not
come here to quarrel.
DR.. Roberts will appoint another
chairman 1t is rumored that he will
have hard time finding some one
who will remain fixture in this place
because OF the opposition and the
movement said to be en- foot to shelve
the report.
Lively Debate Anticipated.
The report of the committee on in
terstate temperance will probably be
made next Friday, but the discussion
of the temperance question will be
lively up to that time. Professor
Scanlon of Pittsburg is directing the
committee work. There is strong Op-
position to the Anti-saloon league,
many commissioners declaring that
they will not vote to continue the
work of this league. Many believe
that the young and old peoples asocie-
ties should take up the work of the
Anti-Saloon league within the church.
The friends of the league among the
commissioners are fatty against the
churches coming out as not in favor
of the league. They are giving many
reasons why the league should be sup
ported. The fight promises to become
the most interesting Of the whole as
sembly.
The temperance committees report
does not mention the league by name,
but it contains some very significant
passages. 1t states that while it is
the duty of every Christian to partici-
pate in politics the "church in her
organized capacity ought not to inter
fere in political primaries or advocate
the election or defeat Of candidates
for political Office or authorize men to
conduct political campaigns or other
wise compromise herself by political
acknowledgements"

Adams as a co-conspirator with the de-

Senator Borah argued at some length

contended that there was no possible
rule Of law under which the evidence
could be introduced. For the sake of
argument he admitted that Adams sent
the telegram TO Haywood when he was

tasned that this could not be strained
