Trust Measures Not Reported

WASHINGTON. May 13.-The house
judiciary committee today made spe-
cial order under which the government
liability BILL the Sherley bankruptcy
bill. the Caulheld judiciary pension bill,
the Goebel newspaper libel bill and the
Goebel bill providing for appeal from
postoffice fraud orders will be taken
up and considered IN com nittee one
after the other in the order named
The significance of this action lies IN
the fact that the committee did not
include in its special order any refer
ence to the Littlefeld liquor bill, the
Townsend injunction bill or the Hep

man antitrust law.
Indications, therefore, are very
strong that no one of these three bills.

A .ssman's Completion.

It is rank foolishuess to attempt
to remove sallowness or gressiness
of the skin by the use of cosmetics,
or "local' treatment, as advocated
by the "beauty doctors. The only
safe and sure way that woman can
improve her complexion is by purify
ing and enriching the blood, which
can only be accomplished by keeping
the liver healthy and active. The
liver is the seat of disease and blood
pollution. Green's August Flower
acts directly Oh the liver, cleanses
and enriches the blosd, puri6es the
complexion 1t alss cures consti-
patton, biliousness, nervousness, and
induces refreshing sleep. A single
bottle of August Flower has been
known to cure the most pronounced
and distressing case Of dyspepsia
and digestion. New trial size bottle
Is cents; regular size 70 cents. At

What has he Made?

We note that the metro
polltan papers report that
one of our wealthy men so
well managed his fortune of
twenty million as to double
it in three years. Suppose
he has, what then? What
has he made by thus increas-
ing his wealth, except in
creased worrlment to keep
the run OF his increased
wealth? With his increased
wealth he eats 10 more quail
and turkey than he did when
worth ten millions. He
dresses no better and has a
thousand times less fun. We
beat him on the sleep and
have no law suits with tenants
and trespassers. Robbers
lay for him every time he
goes out of doors after dark.
They don't think of us. The
man with sixty millions of
dollars has sixty millions OF
troubles. To keep the run
of his rents, bonds and real
estates keeps him at hard
work fourteen hours a day
and yet he only gets three
square meals a day, which is
just what we obtain without
any millions, any tenents and
only have to work eight hours
a day tocredit up all who pay
their subscription.
If mems happiness increas-
ed with their money, every
bopy should be justified in
worshipping the Golden Calf.
The happiness incrhases with
their earnings up to a certain
point-the point necessary
to secure them the comforts
of life, say $4,000 a year.
All beyond this issuperfuous.
Being superduous it is pro-
ductive of no good whatever.
The richer the man the great
er the probability that his
sons will live on billiards
and die in the inebriate
asylum. With contentment
and So, 900 a year a man may
be as happy as a prince.
Without contentment you
will be miserable, even if your
wealth equals that Of Morgan
or Carnegie.
