younger days working in Indiana and
Illinois. In the backwoods, when a
chimney was to be built, or cabin
daubed, the workmen dug big hole
in the clayey ground, filled 1t about
half full of water, scattered a few
handfuls Of corn therein and turned
loose the swine. The latter plunged
in after the corn, and in a short while
had converted the contents of the hole
into excellent mortar.

WASHINGTON LETTER
MATTERS OF GENERAL INTER-
EST FROM THE CAPITAL

The Republican leaders in the
Senate have decided that it is
unwise or impractica BILE to take
any action in the majority OF the
propositions recommended by the
prospects are that Congress will
adjourn about May 18th or 18th,
with long line of unfinished
business, left over for attention at
the next session, This decision is
largely due to the fact that the
Democrats are seeking every op-
portunity to make political capital
and place the Republicans in an
erroneous light before the public.
The three important measures
recommended by the President
which seem likely to be written on
the statutes are the provision for
an emergency currency, the reen-
actme ent of the Employers Liabil-
ity bill, which measure the Presi-
dent has signed, a partial anti
injunction bill which has pass
ed both houses, and some provi-
sion for more battleships, although
both houses have thus far refused
the four that the President had so
earnestly pied for.

direction and all encouragement

recently that, "All organized op-
position to the nomination OF Sec
retary Taft is ended, so far as
Washington is concerned. There
may be here and there, some
sporadic opposition, and of course
Mr.. Foraker, with whom tits q
purely personal matter will not
cease his antagonism; but the
allies so called have abandoned
all effort to prevent what is OBJ
viously the will of the vast ma
jority OF Republicans" In other
qu arters, where there is no partic-
ular friendship for Mr.. Taft the
opinion prevails that his nominal
ton is practically assured, the
only question seemingly is wheth-
er it will come on the second bal
lot or the first.

Advertising for One Penny.

Jabez Alvord, an old and highly re-
spected resident of Winsted, Conn, is
advertising as lost a pocketbook con-
tanning penny, and offers to pay a
liberal reward for it's return. The
penny bears the date Of 1918, and to
Mr.. Alvord 1t is almost invaluable. It
was given to him by the family doc
tor when he was child in dresses.
For safe keeping he put it in a
crack in the house, and 1t fell down
between the partitions. When the
old house was torn down two years
ago Mr.. Alvord found 1t, after it had
been lost more than 65 years. Now it

The Brownsville situation is
causing great anxiety to the Re-
publican leaders. The negro
voters stirred up to a pitch OF
excitement wholly unwarranted
by Senator Foraker's gross mis-
representation of the facts, are de-
manding that the discharged
soldiers of the 25th Infantry be re.
stored to the army. 1t seems
certain that such a bill would be
vetoed by the President and if en-
acted would have to pass over his
veto W hich would be impossible
and although 1t looks as if sMr.
Foraker, who has received SO
much at the hands of the Repub-
lican party and merely created a
sore, which even he is unable to

his revenge on the President. The

devise some sort of compromise

No little speculation is rife in
Washington over the resignation
of Secretary Taft from the cabinet
and as to the name of his success
sor. 1t is authoritively stated
that he will resign only if nomin-
ated at the Chicago convention in
June next. 1t is not generally
known however that Mr.. Taft on
his return from the Philippines
told President Roosevelt that he
wished to resign and that both
the President and Secretary Root
most earnestly and emphatically
protested. The President told
him there were too many complex
problems to be solved and likely
to occur with which no man was
so familiar as the Secretary and
that he simply could not be spar
ed from the Cabinet and that
while Mr.. Taft would be obliged
to spend good deal of his time
away from the capital even half
of his time would be of far more
value e to the administration than
the whole time of any man, who
could be named in his place.

The Venezuelan question was one of
the most exciting and alarming fea-
ures of Mr.. Cleveland's administra-
ton. The application of the Monroe
doctrine by Mr.. Cleveland In a bound
dairy dispute between Great Britain
and Venezuela, was a serious matter
and went so far that Congress was
backing ur the President with meas

In 1893 the Wilson bill was the re-
suit of tariff reform, instituted by the
Cleveland administration. Mr.. Cleve-
land made himself clear as to his
standing on the bill even though he
did not Sign 1t and it became law
through lapse of period allotted for
signature.
The bond sale was another incident
of Mr.. Cleveland's administration
which was long remembered. The re-
serve in the treasury sank so low as
$44,000,00O, and the nation was
alarmed. Congress would not respond
to numerous messages sent by the en-
ecutive. There was friction The

Some people are thin and always re-

sons. Probably in such cases nothing

popularity.
pie who get thin, or remain thin, who
naturally would be plump and fieshy
but for some digestive arrangement.
Thin people lack in adipose tissue.
Adipose tissue 10 chiefly composed of
fat.
Fat is derived from the oily constit-
uents Of food.
The fat-making foods are called by
the Psychologist, Hydrocarbons. This
class OF foods are not digested in the
stomach at all. They are digested in
the duodenum, the division of the ali
mentary canal just below the stomach.
The digestion of fat is mainly, If not
wholly, the work Of the pancreatic
Juice. This Juice is of alkaline reac-
ton, and is rendered inert by the addi-
ton of acid. A hyperacidity Of the
digestive fluids of the stomachoassing
down into the duodenum, destroys
the pancreatic fluid for digestive pur-
poses. Therefore, the fats are not di-
gested or emulsifled, and the system II
deprived Of its due proportion of oily
constituents. Hence, the patient grows
thin.
The beginning of the trouble Is ca
tarrhal condition OF the stomach which
causes hyperacidity of the gastric
juices. This hyperacidity is caused by
fermentation of food in the stomach.
When the food is taken into the stom-
ach, If the process of digestion does
not begin Immediately, acid fermenta-
ton will take place. This creates q
hyperacidity CT the stomach Juices
which in their turn prevent the PAN
creatic digestion of the oils, and the
emaciation results.
A dose of Peruna before each meal
hastens the stomach digestion. By
hurrying digestion, Peruna prevents
fermentation Of the contents OF the
stomach, and the pancreatic juice is thus
preserved in its normal state. 1t then
only remains for the patient to eats
sufficient amount of fst-forming foods,
and the thinness disappears and plump
ness takes its place.

Coal Miners New Scale.

Denver.-A Lafayette dispatch We'd
nesday night says: The delegate con-
vention of representatives from the
unions of the northern Colorado coal
fields held their meeting at Louis
vile today when another wage scale
was formulated. 1t will be submitted
to the various unions for vote. and.
if carried, will then be submitted to
the operators to be acted upon. 1t
is believed that, If the scale passes the
various unions, some of the independ-
ent mines vii lagree to it and work
will be resumed. 1t is understood that
the Parkdale mine has just taken a
contract with the Burlington railroad
to furnish the company 300 tons of
coal daily, the delivery to begin next
week. This leads the miners of the
district to believe that this mine, to-
gether with others, will accept the
scale.

resources of the nation. He told the
real estate men something of the in

upon Colorado.
In the course of his remarks, Gov

recommend extensive legislature tend
ing to preserve the natural resources
of the state, when the Legislature as
sembles in January. He asked for sus-
gestions along these lines, IN order that
the laws that he would ask might be
made as practical and comprehensive
as possible.
According to the governor the con,
ference at Washington was along four

the wearing out of the soil was I'm,
likely, but that the other three sub

The governor explained that it now
is the practice in coal mining to ex-

thereby there was an enormous waste

extending the period during which the
