Why Many Women Suffer From

The Natural Remedy.

Tie delicate and Intricate character of
the female organs rpskes them most sus-
ceptible TO irregularity, and it is most i'm
portant that each one should be kept In
condition TO perform it's duties In a normal
manner. When womankind is performing
the functions peculiar TO her sex there is a
decided tendency TO siuggtshncss OF the
bowels. Nature then requires q gentle as

Robber Returns
Money to Butt

LINCOLN, March H.-(Special Telegram.)
Several weeks ago Representative Butt,
while on an Omaha street car. had his
pocket picked, the robber securing his
pocketbook containing $3.50, a diamond
ring and a number of articles OF small
value.
Last night Mr.. Butt received by mail a
cigar box mailed at Council Bluffs. 1t
contained his pocketbook and 800. but
nothing else. 1t was delivered to him at
the Lincoln hotel. There is no clue to the
robber.

asking to nave a rule brought in and
whether any will be ordered probably will
depend on circumstances. He expects also
to give somewhat more time for the con-
sideration of the bill by the house than
was given to the Dingley measure.
1t is recalled that the debate on Mr..
Dingley's proposition was begun on March
q, twelve years ago, the same day of the
same month on which the general Discus
sion Of the Payne 'biiI begins. On the for
mer occasion all discussion ended and a
vote was taken on the last day of March.
Under present conditions. Mr., Payne
thinks it would be desirable to give some
what more time. but he declines absolutely
to say how much more.
Senator Aldrich, chairman Of the enate
committee on finance, which will deal with
the bill in the senate, announced today
that he would call a meeting of the re-
publican members of the committee for
tomorrow with the idea of Immediately be-
ginning consideration OF the house meas
ure. The finance committee suffered seri-
ously from the defeats of the recent cleo
tions and as a consequence the republican
membership numbers only four senator's
They are Messrs. Aldrich of Rhode Island.
Burrows of Michigan, Penrose of Pennsyl-
vania and Hale OF Maine.
Mr.. Aldrich says, however, that they can
take up the bill as a subcommittee, and he
hopes to have them do so. AS soon as the
republican vacancies are filled the new
members will be invited in and the con-
sideratlon of the measure will proceed,
with the hope on the part of the chairman
that the senat committee may be prepared
to make its report soon after the receipt of
the bill from the house.
MFR. Hale Has Objections.
Mr.. Aldrich declared that he had not
looked at the house bill, and declined to
make any comment upon 1t, II is known,
however, that many senators make serious
objections to the changes from the present
law and the hope is nowhere expressed that
the bill will not be materially amended be-
fore 1t leaves the senate. Senator Hale,
chairman of the republican caucus, is among
those who find the bill Objectionable.
'It absolutely murders the wood pulp
and paper industry of Maine" he said.
This is the most important industry in
our state and we shall resist the change
with the utmost possible vigor."
Mr.. Hale authorized this statement, but
while he found many OF the other fea-
lures of the bill to be Objectionable from
his point OF view. he declined to specify
them. He predicted that the bill would be
before congress for the next three months
or more.
The committee on finance will not grant
any hearings, but will consider any writ
ten or printed statements which may be
presented to It.
The probabilities are that when the house
begins the debate on the bill the hours of
the sessions will be extended. The sittings
win probably begin at 10 in the morning
and continue until 10 or II o'clock at night.

RushingDevelop-
ment Operations

To those not familiar with the un-
derground workings of the COmstock
mines. the reports given out each
week by the superintendents are con-
sidered mighty DIR yand uninteresting
reading. The attractive and fascinat.
ing details of new ore extraction are
largely missing at the present time.
but the fact that so many feet are
made in drifts and crOsscuts named,
has a funi of meaning to those who
know the mines. Every foot gained
