Washington. June 10.-Time and time again today Senator Deliver and eight or nine other so-called progressive republicans went down to 5efeat i'll their efforts to break the ranks of the Aldrich forces on the wool schedule Of the tariff bill. The Iowa senator had the floor the greater part of the day and offered numerous amendments looking to the reduction of the finance committee rates, but in each instance the amendment was voted down and the committee was sustained.
 Spirited Discussion.
 The first of Mir. Delivers sugges- tions had for its object the confining to the wool in them the duty on so- called yarns which are only part wool. After considerable spirited discussion, in which Messrs. Deliver and Warren were the principal participants, the amendment was defeated by vote of 31 to 43 During the debate MT. War ren contended that the object of this rrovision was to prevent the importa- ton of cheap cloths, but this was met by a suggestion from Mir. Deliver that there might be some people who would be benefited by having cheap cloths brought in from abroad. On this vote Mr. Deliver was supported by Sena- kett Clapp, Cummins, La Toilette and Nelson. Senator McEnery of Louisiana was the only democratic senator who voted with the republicans against tie amendment.

Letters from Prominent Physicians Addressed to Chas H. Fletcher

Dr. B. Halstead Scott, of Chica- go, H., says "I have prescribed your Castoria often for infants during my practice and find it very satisfactory"
 Dr. William Belmont, of Cleve- land, Ohio, says "Your Cestoris stands first in its class. In my thirty years of practice can say I never have found anything that so filled the place."
 Dr. R. J. Hamlen, of Detroit, Mich, says I prescribe your Gas toris extensively as I have never found anything to equal it for chil- dren's troubles. I am aware that there are limitations in the field, but I always see that my patients get Fletcher's."
 Dr. Charming H. Cook, of Saint Louis, Mo, says: "I have used your Castoria for several years past in my own family and have always found it thoroughly efficient and never objected to by children, which is a great consideration in view of the fact that most medi- cines of this character are 0bnox- ious and therefore difficult of ad- ministration. As a laxative I consider it the peer of anything that I ever prescribed"
Norwich bulletin., 1909-06-11

Dr. W. L. Leister, of Rogers, Ark, says; As practicing phy- sician I use Castoria and like it very much"
 Dr. w. T. Seeley, of Anity, N. Y, says: "I have used your Cas- toria for several years in my practice and have found 1t safe and reliable remedy"
 Dr. Raymond Nj. Evarts, of Santa Ynez, Cal, says After using your Castoria for children for years it annoys me greatly to have an ignorant druggist substitute some thing else, especially to the pa- tient's disadvantage, as in this case. I enclose herewith the wrapper of the imitation"
 Dr. R. M. Ward, of Kansas City, Mo-, says "Physicians generally do not prescribe proprietary prepa- rations. but in the case of Castoria my experience, like that of many other physicians, has taught me to make an exception. prescribe your Castoria in my practice be- cause I have found it to be a thor oughly reliable remedy for chil- dren's complaints. Any physician who has raised family, as have, will join me in heartiest recom- mendation of Castoria."
