BREAD UPON THE WATERS

1t is significant that so soon after
the high officials OF the Illinois Cen
trail railroad were entertained at din
ner by Paducah business men, the
city was granted the right to construct
a park on the unused property of the
railroad on the river front, the
shopping train from Central City to
Paducah and return was put on, and
the plea of the wholesalers for a
morning train the other way needed.
OF course. this may have come up In
the regular order Of business and
been considered as cold blooded
matter Of fact proposition; but. may
be. they thought town with as hust-
ling, hospitable set of business men
as Paducah showed herself TO have
that night. is entitled to considera-
ton. Whatever may be the facts. the
officials were charmed with their
treatment here and they did grant
Paducah what she asked for. land
when they come back. there will be
an added warmth to their welcome.

Washington. May Statements
were made to the senate by Senator
Aldrlch, representing the finance
committee, and Senator Culberson
minority leader, analyzing the tarin
bill as II was reported to the senate
and comparing IL. as far as increases
and reductions are concerned, with
the Dingley law,
Senator Culberson figured the de-
creases to be $3.50, increases SIG and
the number OF articles on which
duties are unchanged 1871. Aldrich
made the reductions 379. but fur
nlshed no figures as to the number
of increases made. He expressed
surprise at the number OF increases
announced by Culberson and declared
that the statement must have been
prepared "by a very wonderful man"
Culberson retorted that they were
prepared by an expert from the treas
ury department, who is thoroughly
competent.
The principal schedules on which

duties OF the senate bill. are agricul-
tural products and various luxuries.
Aldrich contended that the increases

largely on toilet preparations. were
made for revenue purposes. The
chief increase in the metal schedule,
according to the summary, is the
placing OF zinc and anthony ore on
the dutiable list and the advance OF
rates on the products OF zinc in pro-
portion.
In support of his contention that
The increases are confined largely to

HOW TO GROW FAR
A Lazy stomach the Cause OF Thin
ness, Nine Times in Ten.

II you are thin or lean, have
scrawney arms and neck. you can't
grow fat unless your food properly
digests.
People take on flesh in proportion
to the nutritious matter which the
organs OF digestion absorb and pass
into the blood
Just as long as this nutritious mat
ter passes along without being abb
sorbed, just so long will you remain
thin. ~
Perhaps your stomach. bowels and
liver need a tonic. If your digestion
is not perfect, Mi-o-na tablets will put
II right at once.
Mi-o-na will cure indigestion and
every conceivable ailment of the
stomach promptly. 1t cures by build
ing and toning up and not by en-
c6uraging a tired stomach to continue
its shiftless and health destroying
habits. II promptly drives away sour

My life to His service is sacred,
The laws Of His Church uphold.
81 leave you with sorrow at parting.
The half of my life has been here:
You ever have been most responsive.
You faithful have been, and are dear
To my heart: shall evermore cherish
Your kindness. your truth and your
worth;
My prayers for You daily I'll offer
While God bids me linger on earth. .
We listened in dumb CONSERVATION
To words that were fraught with
such woe,
Conveying to loved congregation
His orders. his purpose. to 60
And tears came unbidden to faces
With sorrow no words can e'er tell;
Grief stricken the Church of st.
Francis.

For a place at the mystical table
Where Chrlst's sacred body is shared

So gentle, so sanity. SO kind

Was Angel more gracious OF mind.
May God IN His justice reward him
For all he has done for us here.
And bless him. and guide him and
guard him
Till in Heaven his soul shall appear.

Victoria, B. c., May 6.-Japanese
warships may be sent to Bering Sea
TO protect the sealers from Yoka-

the Pacific which flock to Bering Sea
in great numbers each year. This is
the news from authoritative source
at Toxic. A letter received here says:
"In view OF the fact that Japanese
sealers are seized every year in and
about Boring Sea on charges of poach

sidering proposals to send warships
there during the sealing season for
the protection of sealers. This APP
