and misery. L advise all suffering
women to take Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound" MRS EMMA
WHEATON, Vienna, w. Va.
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound, made from native roots and
herbs, contains no narcotics or harm
full drugs, and to-day holds the record
for the largest number of actual cures
of female diseases of any similar medi-
cine in the country, and thousands of
voluntary testimonials are on file in
ythe Pinkham laboratory at Lynn,
Mass, from women who have been
cured from almost every form of
female complaints, Inflammation, ul-
ceration, displacements, fibroid tumors,
Irregularities, periodic pains, backache,
Indigestion and nervous p~rostration.
Every such suffering woman owes it to
herself to give Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound a trial.
If you would like special advice
about your case write a cOnfiden-
tial letter to Mrs. Pinkham, at
Lynn, Mass. Her advice is free,
and always helpful.

Washington, Feb. 25.-With its war
paint on, the house of representatives
yesterday by sweeping majorities
many times defied the senate by re-
jecting its amendments to the legisla-
tive appropriation bill providing for
salary increases for the president, the
vice president. the speaker, the judi
ciary, and for the creation of the of
fees OF under secretary and fourth
assistant secretary of state. Party
lines were obliterated completely.
1t was a regular field day in the
lower body, where oratory and confu-
sion We'd with each other for honors.
Not during the present congress has
the speaker been compelled to WELD
his gavel with such force to bring
about order. OF parliamentary tan
giles there we're many, but the veteran
presiding officer emerged from all of
them with his decisions ~undisputed.
The battle waged for more than six
hours, at the end of WHICH the bill
was sent to conference. The agricul-
tural appropriation bill was under dis
cussion in the senate during practi-
cally the entire session yesterday.
Consideration Of the bill was not con-
cluded.

WESTERN CANADA'S SPLENDID
CROP YIELD FOR 1908.
AMERICANS PRoFITED LARGELY
AND SEND BACK SATiSFAc.
TORY REPORTS.

The census branch Of the Depart.
ment of Agriculture, Ottawa, Canada,
has completed it's returns of the show.
ing Of Western Canada's grain yield
for 1908, and the reports make very
interesting reading. In the three prov.
inces of Manitoba, Saskatchewan and
Alberta, which comprise what may be
known as Central Canada, there was a
total wheat yield of about 107, 000, 600
bushels, worth to the farmer about
$S5, 000, 000; in addition to this the oat,
barley and fax crops were worth an.
other $35, 000, 900. Letters have been
received from many of the settlers
from the United States. From these,
that of Rev. Oscar L. King has been
selected. He lives in the vicinity Of
Edmonton, Alberta, and what he says
will be of interest TO those who con.
template moving to Central Canada.
Every line Of the letter is interesting.
Those who wish for the particulars as
to how to secure homesteads and pre-.
emptions should write any Canadian
Government agent. Mr.. King says:
"Mr. M. V. McInnnes, Detroit, Mich.
igan: / am we'll satisfied with AL
berta. This country offers excellent
opportunities for anyone to make a
good home for himself and family
IL he is willing to put up with a few
hard knocks for the first two or three
years. But it Is worth a few hard
knocks to get a 160-acre farm of rich,
productive land with no mortgage on
it. This province is well fitted for
grains, stock raising and %dairying. We
have found the climate generally
healthful, more healthful than Mich,
igan, and although the thermometer
sometimes drops to 40 degrees below
zero in winter, yet we do not seem to
feel that temperature any more than
we did 5 or 10 degrees below zero in
Michigan. We like the winters.
1.-The Government takes great. inter
est in the education Of the people and
quickly aids the settlers in establish
ing schools where they are called for.
The schools, though graded differently
than those in the States, are efficient
and advancing. Our great drawback
has been the limited and inadequate
railway facilities, but new roads are
being rapidly built and many more
are projected through various parts
Of the province. The new policy of
the Alberta government to construct
a great many branch lines throughout
the province will greatly help all parts
of the country. If those new settlers

} Proceedings.

Washington, Feb. %. - A second
speech by Mr.. Rainey of Illinois. reit-
Grating his former statements con-
corning the Panama canal, and a bit
ter arraignment of MI. Rainey by Mr..
Burton of Ohio, furnished the princi-
pal incident in the house yesterday.
After the Illinois member had spoken
for an hour in further d%enunciation of
William Nelson Cromwell, Mr.. Burton
took the floor to make reply. Mr..
Rainey, he said, had furnished no
proofs Of w%rongdoing in connection
with the purchase of the Panama ca
nal franchise, but instead had conjur-
ed up wrong and buttressed them
with SANDER and f%alsehood, thereby
placing himself on a level with "the
scurvy politician" He challenged Mr..
Rainey to get from behind the protec-
ton afforded him by the Constitution
of the United States and rules of the
house and make his charges in the
open.
For two hours and a half yesterday
the senate discussed the postal saw
ings bank proposal, but an attempt to
reach an agreement as to a day for
voting on the measure failed.

Washington, Feb. 26.-By an over
whelming vote, and without party dis
t%inction, the house of representatives
yesterday sustained the committee on
appropriations in again reporting a
provision in the sundry civil a~ppropri-
alton bill restricting the operations Of
the secret service detectives of the
treasury department. The president
was scathingly dnounced by Mr.. Cook

tions committee and one of those
named by the president in his mes
sage of Jan. 4 last as being response

service. He compared the secret
service detectives with common
liars" and declared them to be worth.
less.
Consideration of the sundry civil
bill was continued into the night.
The conference report on the post
Office appropriation bill was agreed to
during the day and the naval bill was
sent back for further conference.
The entire time of the senate was
occupied yesterday with the consid-
GRAFTON Of the agricultural appropria-
ton bill. Many items of the bill pro-
viding for various Investigations and
matters relating to new legislation
were stricken from the bill on points
of order.

Washington, Feb. "a. - The presi-

of inquiry to determine the qualifica-
cations for re-enlistment of discharg-
ed negro soldiers of the Twenty-ifth
infantry regiment, who were accused
of shooting up Brownsville, Tex, on
the night of Aug. 1874, 1906. The
Aldrich bill for this purpose was
passed by a party vote of Sc to &c,
except that Senator Teller voted with
the Republicans for the passage OF
the bill. The bill is a compromise
measure, approved by President
Roosevelt, Senator Foraker and all of
the Republican members of the COM

Appropriation bills mainly occupied
the house yesterday. The sundry
civil bill was considered, but progress
with it was slow. The Notifications,
legislative, executive and judicial,
