of the system The liver, for example,
is particularly needful little organ,
but must be active to be of any Use.
When it is active it creates gastric
juices that help to make digestion
perfect, and then you are we'll. When
it is not active it becomes what is
known as torpid and promptly pro-
duces biliousness.
There is no better cure for bliousness
or any Of the symptoms of liver trouble
than DR.. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin, the
wonderful laxative tonic of which so much
praise is heard. 1t is pleasant to take Gun
like pills and powders and such things)
and acts very gently, moving the bowels
without gripping, toning the stomach and
arousing the liver to activity, thus scien-
tifcally curing such conditions as bilious
ness, torpid liver, foul breath, sallow or
supation loss of appetite, indigestion,
stomach nervousness, ETC., all of which
are due to a slow liver.
Mack Clark, of darlington, KY. suffered
for five years from biliousness and cured
himself with Dr.. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin.

CARRYING OF EXPLOSIVES.
Argument Made in Favor of the
Sherman Bill.

Dynamite nitroglycerin and the full
inmates held the attention of the House
committee on interstate and foreign COM
merce yesterday. new law to safeguard
their transportation was the subject dis
cussed. and in the course of the hearing
an impromptu lecture on high explosives
was delivered by DR.. Charles b. Dudley
of Altoona, Pa, president of the bureau
for the safe transportation of explosives.
comprising representatives of ninety-three
railroads owning and operating 30 per cent
of the steam road trackage of the United
States.
DR.. Dudley appeared in support of the
Sherman bill. whose object is ito promote
the safe transportation in interstate COM
merce of explosives and other dangerous
articles" The bill was largely drawn by
the explosives bureau. 1t prohibits the
commercial transportation of dynamite,
gunpowder or other explosives, except
ing small arms ammunition, except under
strict regulations.
Representative Mann of Illinois said it
had been asserted to him that the eX-
plosives bureau is allied with the so-called
powder trust. and that the transportation
restrictions favored by the bureau would
operate seriously against the Independent
manufacturers-for instance. the provision
that explosives shall not be transported
In passenger-carrying vessels. Il under

great lakes the du Pont people have their

dents have none

the committee, doubtless the indepen-
dents could place themselves on an equal
footing by getting boats

Be Carried Ont

Secretary Taft has decided that the
McGivney-Rokeby contract for paving
and sewering Havana, Cuba. with certain
notifications, bringing the contract up to
date and to meet changed conditions in
Havana, should be executed in order to
complete the plan of sanitation required
by treaty The island government must
participate with the city Of Havana in
defraying the cost of the Improvement,
the city's share being fixed by the former.
Similar action was taken in the case of
the Reilly contract for sewering and
paving Cienfuegos. and for the same rea-
son as in the Former case the national
and city governments must defray the ex-
pense of the improvement. Other Cuban
contract matters decided were:
The ScOvel contract relative to wharf
age rights should be vacated at once,
the concessionaries being equitably COM
penSated
AS to the Marianao telephone conces-
sion, provision is made for a new letting
of bids for the telephone rights in which
all parties will have equal privileges con-
ditioned upon waiver of the Red Tele-
fonica concession, the details of the ar
rangement to be settled upon Secretary
Tafts return to Washington.
