That the remaining less than
two months term Of President
Roosevelt's presidency is to be
tempestuous sailing if ;he House
and the Senate can make a rough
scu. is evident. After all, it may
be their love for the President
that inspire the plan on the part
of the Congress to round out his
term with a strenuous life in &C
cordance with his known tastes.
1t is believed that the President
enjoys nothing better than con-
tention, and whether it is big
game in Africa, or big game at
the Capitol, it is all che to him,
The President cannot make
important appointments except
by and with the consent of the
Senate, and his appointment to
the Public Printing Office of Mr..
Donnelly is held up in the Senate;
and it is understood that Senat-
ors Depew, Elkins and Aldrich
will make objections to this ap-
pointment. On what grounds
does not yet appear.
The course pursued by the
House of Representatives with
reference to that portion Of the
Presidents regular annual mess
age which contained the offensive
structures on the secret service
matter will probably be to strike
from the records the language
in the message considered to be
offensive to the dignity of the
national legislative body, It is
also said that those parts of the
Presidents special message on
the 9Th inst. criticising Repre-
sentatives Tawney, Smith of
Iowa. Shirley and Fitzgerald will
also be expunged. The House
may amend the Presidents mess
age by striking out, erasing.
blotting out, expunging, and
otherwise obliterating the words
on the particular sheet of paper
which the President sent to Con-
gress, but as Byron says "What
is writ is writ. 1t has been
published in at least ten thous-
and newspapers in the United
States, and translated into sew
eral languages. 1t is very wide
ly believed to be deserved, and
any such action by the House as
has been suggested will simply
give it wider circulation and pub
licity. The action of the House
will, Of course, be equivalent to
a censure of the President, and
such pronounced censure as has
not been known since the days
of President Andrew Johnson,
and the time of Theodore Roose-
velt, and vast difference in the
of the two men, al
though they have in some re-
spects similar characteristics.

The Cure.

He talked too much-far too much.
Already he had driven his taciturn
companion nearly wild. He had touch
ed on subjects innumerable, discours-
ed with volubility on anything and
everything. Onward went tile unend
ing stream of speech. And all the
while the voluble one danced about
and fidgeted and squirmed until the
other was well nigh beside himself
with disgust.
Finally the walking dictionary took
from his pocket cigarette.
"I'm great smoker" he remarked.
Eyes, I'm a great smoker-great smok-
er. I'm one of those nervous men,
you know; one of those high strung,
restless fellows who always must have
something in their mouths. Yes, you
see, I'm so nervous, as 1 said, that
simply must-yes, must-have some
thing all the time in my mouth"

He has read a lot about angels"
but the only one he ever saw is his
mother" writes Truman A. DeWeese,
In Suburban Life. For some unac-
countable reason" continues Mr.. De-
Weese, my boy selected Chicago to
be born in, and he arrived in the big,
noisy city on a zero winter day-a
proceeding in strange contrast to the
warmth of his sunny nature and the
peaceful serenity of his temperament.
Having done this, however, he had
the good n to pick me for his IA
ther and that Is the reason I have
tried to give him some of the things
he lost by not being born on a farm.
l have made him almost my constant
companion since he began to use his
little legs to explore the mysteries of
his little world. OF course, there Is
something OF a selfish motive in all
this. | am sure I get more out Of the
boy than he gets out of me. To watch
the leaves of his mind unfold In the
springtime of his life Is a great 10y.

CLIMBED LADDER TO SADDLE
Work Of Mounting a Horse Something
OF a Feat for Ponderous

Il see you had something about

sergeant. whose service stripes
reached almost to his chevrons. 9"
served under him many years, but I
cannot remember when his waist line
was less than the A mark. 'Pecos
BILL we used to call him. It was a
great sight to see him mount his
horse. Sometimes he used to have a
~stepladder, and 1t often took two or
derlies to hoist him into the saddle.
When he was commandant at the Pre-
sidio he hit upon a device that put the
stepladder In the shade and brought
great relief to his orderlies. At head
quarters the Office opened upon a
broad and high porch. Well. talk
about strategy! Col.-he was colonel
then-Shafter saw the possibilities of
the porch. One day he sent for a
carpenter, who cut out a section of
the railing. Then the orderly brought
the colonel's war horse alongside the
porch at this opening so that all the
colonel had to do was to step into the
saddle. After hat 1t was up to the
horse.

WORK OF DETECTIVES
Partisan Peace Guardians Employ Ef.
fective Disguise in Effort to
Make Arrest.

Two ragged-looking street singers
appeared in front Of a cafe In one OF
the popular quarters of Paris. One of
them sang a pathetic street ballad.
and the other accompanied him on
the guitar. Coppers fell here and
there from the windows, and some
midinettes listened with pleasure to
the music. Suddenly the singer broke
off his song, the accompanist dropped
his guitar, and both seized by the
collar a man who was coming out Of
the cafe, snatched an envelope with
700 francs and a lot of slips OF paper
out of his hand, and told him that he
was their prisoner. The two musi-
clans were simply two clever detec-
tires. sent by M. Hamard to secure the
arrest Of a clandestine bookmaker,
who vas taking bets on the races, an
occupation forbidden by the law. The
b~ookmaker struggled hard to get loose
from their grip, and he, in turn.
threatened to have the men arrested
as highway robbers. The amusing
thing is that a policeman who had OBJ.
served the scene rushed to his assist
ance, and although the detectives
showed their papers, he had his
doubts. and marched them of to the
police station, together with their pris-
oner. Here things were at last
cleared up. and the detectives were

CAUSES DEBILITY.
Here Are Facts Backed Up BY :
Strong Guarantee.

Debility is caused by catarrh. In
our opinion, person free from ca
tarrh was never troubled with debil-
ity. Debility can never be cured by
medicine not designed to cure catarrh.
We positively guarantee to cure ca
tarrh, and thus cure debility. In every
case where we fail to effect cure,
we will not charge a cent for the
medicine employed during the trial.
Now, surely, no one should hesitate
to believe us or to put our claim to a
practical test under such conditions.
We take all the risk; no one else can
lose anything by the transaction.
We make these statements and this
offer because we know and have time
