CHESTNUT BARK
STARTS DEBATE
Senator Daniel Wants Que
brachO Rate Raised.
HIS AMENDMENT IS LOST

Aldreh Consents to Reduction OF
Duty on Lead Of one.Eiehth Cent
Pound over Rate Proposed by
Finance commlttee-5ristow Con-
tends That Proposed Tariff viii Be
Tax on Consumer, but Committee
Is Sustained by Customary Vote.
Washington, May 21.--The senate
distributed its attention among the
three items in the tariff bill provid.
ing duty on an extract of chestnut
bark used in tanning, known as Que
bracho; on cottonseed oil and on
white lead. On each of these articles
the senate was led by the committee
on finance, although the committee
was induced to change its original
suggestion on both white lead and
cottonseed oil.
The lead duty fixed by the commit
tee was originally "a cents per
pound but Mr.. Curtis, who is a mem
Der of the committee, suggested re-
duction of one-eighth cent a pound
bringing the figures down TO 2%
cents, and Chairman Aldrich accepted
the reduction. Even this increase
over the house provision excited
sharp criticism, especially from Mr..
Curtis colleague, Mr. Bristow, who
contended that the duty would prove
to be a direct tax on the consumer
When the vote was taken the com.
mittee obtained it's usual triumph, the
figures standing Al to 80 in favor Of
the Curtis amendment. AS usual
Senators Beveridge, Bristow, Brown
Burkett, Clapp, Cummins, Dolliver,
Gamble, LaFollette and Nelson voted
with the Democrats. Senator Borah
voted with the Republicans.
Probably the most interesting con-
test was that over the question as to
whether there should be any duty on
cottonseed oil. Senators Tillman. Ba-
con and Money made an intense fight
against the senate provision fixing a
tariff of 3 cents gallon, on the
ground that It would injure the sale
of cottonseed, and after the contro-
versy had gone on for some time Mr.
Aldrich withdrew the provision.
Mr.. LaFollette sought to reduce the
duty on quebracho to one-quarter OF a
cent a pound, but his amendment to
that effect was rejected, 30 to 3S.

SAYS PROHIBITION q
is MORAL QUESTION
Mayor Rose Debates With Dry
Advocate.

Peoria, Ill.,, May 2l.-Argulng along
the lines that prohibition does not
prohibit, Mayor David S. Rose of Mil
waukee met Dan r. Sheen before
1000 people at the Coliseum here on
the negative side of the question:
Resolved, that prohibition, AS ap-
piled to the manufacture and sale OF
intoxicating beverages, is right"
The local advocate of cold water
opened the debate with an address OF
one hour. He urged the protection
of the homes, OF the schools, of the
churches and of the rising generation
against the evils OF the liquor traffic.
Half of the criminals in the peniten.
tiaries, he said, were there through
the effects Of alcoholic stimulants.
The Almighty established prohibition
first in the Garden of Eden, the
speaker maintained. when Adam was
prohibited from eating an apple.
Mayor Rose urged that the Almigh-
ty's mandate regarding the apple did
not prohibit Adam from eating It, and
argued that since that time the laws
against the use OF Intoxicating bever-
ages had been no more successful.
He referred at great length to the
failure of the army canteen bill, and
in this connection said: You can
never legislate men into morality,
and this whole question of temper
ance and Of prohibition is a moral
question"

WHY WOMEN
NEED A TONIC
Because Pure, Rich BIooo Alone
Can Give the Strength That
Is Demanded of Them.

The tonic treatment with DIR. Will
liams Pink Pills cures weak women by
enriching aud purifying the blood. II
gives strength and health 10 every part
of the body and enables each to do its
work regularly and well.
Mrs S. +. Ballenger, of South Union
street, London, Ohio, gives Dr. Will
liams' Pink Pills a hearty endorsement
in the following account Of the cure of
herself and daughter:
II had been in poor health for some
time before began TO suffer with weak
ness but had done nothing for my condi-
ton and just wore myself out. l was
not fit for any work, did not have any
appetite and ate nothing but the lightest
foods and had TO force myself 10 do that.
My nerves were unstrung and twitched
all over. / could not sleep we'll, was in
bed one whole winter and had given up
hope of getting well.
"I was treated by several physicians,
who told me / would have TO 90 TO the
hospital. They helped me some but
only temporarily. had been sick for
about a year when my mother advised
me to try DIR. Williams Pink Pills. /
DOuBlb lew DOAtb anu III u blOft Ilnb
l noticed that my nerves were quieter
and was able TO get a better nights
rest. ! took the pills regularly and was
cured.
Later gave the pills to my daugh.
ter who had been obliged TO give up her
school. She was as white as a sheet
and her blood was very thin. She could
hardly walk across the room ndcoughed
most of the time. The doctor said she
was going into consumption and that he
eould do nothing for her. We had
almost despaired of saving her life but
decided TO try DIR. Williams Pink Pills
again. She took several boxes and was
cured. She is now strong and healthy
and works every day. We feel that we
cannot praise DIR. Williams Pink Pills
too highly"
From the time she is developing into
woInanhood until the trials of the for
tietii year are passed, woman needs
the strength that pure blood alone can
give.
The pills are sold by all druggists, OF
will be sent, postpaid, on receipt of price,
