~ A DOCTORS SLEEP
Pound He Had to Leave Off Coffee

Many persons do not realize that bad
stomach will cause insomnia
Coffee drinking being such an ancient
and respectable form of stimulation, few
realize that the drug-caffeine-con-
tained in coffee and tea, is one of the
principle causes of dyspepsia and nervous
troubles.
Without their usual portion of coffee
or tea, the caffeine topers are nervous,

Frontier who was in the chair. promptly
ruled the amendment out of order, and the
debate in earnest began on a motion of
Patrick to recommend the bill for passage.
Burns az Lancaster got the floor and spoke
against the bill. He declared the members
did not want to build high board fence
around themselves. He said the bill cast
a reflection on every member Of the legisla-
ture. Patrick replied by, declaring the bill
would not shut out the constituents OF the
members unless they were paid lobbyists,
and then 1t would only require a public
hearing before the senate or a committee
or by printed briefs. A joint debate be-
tween Patrick and Burns followed.
II don't think the gentleman from Lam
caster is afraid Of lobbyists" said Senator
Patrick. in closing
Senator Burns jumped to his feet and

against It, while Sackett. Root, Wiltse OF
Cedar, siblsy and Epperson spoke for 1t.
An attempt was made by the friends of the
bill to postpone action on 1t, but 1t failed

and the motion carried, eighteen voting for
the motion. After this action was taken
the committee of the whole adjourned.

 Correct foundations for evening dresses are by no means remaining faithful to the taifeta silks, but are frequently developed in satins of the softest quality. which permit the cloudings of chiffon now so essential to diaphanous drop skirt.
 The jupon worn beneath the recep- tion frock in. many instances reveals the charms of satin top and knee deep founce. yelled with lace or net. embroidered in various fantastic ways with ribbon and chiffon; or, the upper fiounce is of plain or accordion.plaited chiffon, if ono seeks a more econom. ical arrangement, luched at the edge and trimmed with chiffon rosettes.

The grippe is the most yielorG ! diseases. It begins in the niG1t Qn4 sleeps not by day. Nor will tt let III victim sleep. Where 1t cor1eu inn n not known, but everyone iss AWare when 1t gets there. that 1t has conc to stay. It takes off it's things and puta its trunk in your best room. It seems| to De on an indefinite leave Of absence from home to make life as uncomfofts able for it's host as possible. IL puts its feet on your best furniture, uSes your best linen towels to clean IT shoes, and takes especial delight in leaving its dirty linen about for you to pick up. It assaults you from tho front and from the rear. It pounds away at your head until you can stand 1t no longer; 1t runs up and down your spinal column; puts your legs out Of commission and destroys your appe- tite. The grippe is the most unfeeling and thoughtless of all diseases. Where some diseases are content with aikect- ing certain organs or certain portions of the human frame, and letting 1t go at that. the grippe comes In and lays siege to the entire system of human economy. It knows no feelings of de- cency or consideration. It laughs you to scorn. and when you are alone it mocks your grooming. Of all diseases spare me from the grippe. Detroit Free Press.

Where does 1t go, this blood-stained Congo gold? Into the fairy palaces. the wonderful gardens of enchantment in which this grim old. gray king de- lights. Into the collections of rare and priceless trees and shrubs and flowers that have made his conserva- tories at Laeken famous throughout Europe. Into the white hands of the women who. each for her brief hour. have ruled the Congo's lord-the queens of the Congo. whose jewels are bought with human lives. Into the far-reaching schemes of aggrandize- ment which most marvellous combi- nation of witness. political sagacity. and selfish ambition can devise, and limitless wealth and diabolic ability in choosing the proper tools can ex. ecute.

pREss THAT COST ezo,ooo.
Three Hundred Mexican Women
 Made the Wonderful Garment.

After nine years of most painstak- ing toll, Senora E. Leon of Aguas Ca lientes. living in the City of Mexico, has completed dress which Is valued at the sum of s40,00O gold. says the Pittsburg Dispatch She was assisted in this arduous toll by 300 expert needlewomen, all of whom were well paid.
 The dress was first intended for the Mexican exhibit at the Paris exposi- tion. As it was at that time incom- plete 1t was decided to display it at the St. Louis worlds fair, but the close of this exposition still saw the work unfinished.
 Aguas Calientes is famous for it's drawn-work and needlework, and it's embroidery artists, but this dress ex- cells anything ever attempted. or com pleted in that city. The dress is an exquisite and wonderful example of woman's skill, patience and artistic conception.
 It consists of full trained skirt, Eton jacket and bertha, and is made of the sheerest linen, the thread for which was imported from Paris and bore the number 600, the finest manu- factured. The design. which was originated by Signora Leon, is mar vel. There are no visible seams in the entire garment, which is drawn in wheels in such a way that the origi- nal fabric is changed into flimsy, web-like lace.
 The dress will be put on exhibition in the City of Mexico and offered for sale. No price under $40,000 gold will be considered. During the winter, when the city Is filled with American millionaires. it is not thought that finding purchaser will be difficult.
