CAPITOL H0USECLEANING ON
Elliot Woods, Custodian of Building,
Working Overtime to Prepare
for Next Session.

Washington.-Elli Woods. super.
intendent of the capitol building, is
a busy man these days, for he is
housekeeping.
Congress was in session much long
er than in ordinary terms, and he
will have to work harder than usual
to get the big building in shape for
the next session. Many Improvements
and repairs are to be made in the
big structure. One hundred and fif-
ty carpenters, painters, mechanics,
electricians, laborers, scrubwomen
and others are busy cleaning and re-
furnishing the many rooms and cor
ridors of the building.
Some idea of the work to be done
can be gained when it is known that
there are 430 rooms in the capitol
building to be revamped, $50 windows
to be washed, $50 doors to be kept
properly swung, 145 fireplaces to be
overhauled, los toilets to be kept in
order, and many other things of like
import to be looked after.
Among the most important improve.
ments to be made this year is the
changing of the senate restaurant so
senators will have more room and
privacy, the installation of two new
elevators on the senate side, near the
main entrance, and the restoring of
all the Brumidt paintings in the COM
mittee rooms and Corridors.

NOW ON STRIKE
Millions of Stomachs Refuse to Do
Their Work Properly.

All over this broad land millions
of stomach owners are being held in

they are so stubborn that they will not
accept fair, square and broad mind

lieve so thoroughly in its remarkable
curative power that they say to every
owner Of a distressed stomach that
they will guarantee Mona tablets to
cure acute or chronic indigestion and
all stomach ailments or money back.

And still there are stubborn people
right in Hattiesburg who wont accept
this offer but continue to suffer from
gas on stomach, belching of sour food,
stomach pains, foul breath, dizziness,
billiousness and headaches just be-
cause-just because-that's all, there
is no other reason. y
Mi-o-na tablets stop dyspeptic agony
in five minutes; they cure obstinate
cases of indigestion and turn the old
stomach into new one in few
weeks--or money back.

are larger than those of any pre-

the reports of 1908 will be used at

The total membership in these
churches is 218,967; the total Sunday
school membership, 153 ,464. Besides
these figures there are number OF
churches that have not reported

~ 5000 each to the total church and
Sunday school membership. During
the past year there have been y, 1852
baptisms. Financially there has
been an advance at every point.
There are seven objects to which our
people contrihute-State missions,
home missions, foreign missions, or
phanage, ministerial education, aged
ministers and Sunday school missions.
To these objects has been contrlbu-
ted during the past year, $l36, 1888.
This is q net gain over last year S13,-
