ALTHo ALMOST ENTIRELY RE.
WRITTEN BILL HAS oBJEc-
TIoNABLE FEATURES.
COMMERCE COURT SECTION
RETAINED IN FINAL DRAFT
Minority Submits Report to House OBJ
jectns to Court Provision, and to
Other Features Regulating consoIi-
dation of Competing Lines-New
Lines Discouraged.

Washington, April 1.-The admins
tration railroad bill was reported to
the house today Many OF it's original
features are eliminated, but it still has
a provision for commerce court. the
regulation of railway agreements, con-
solidation, securities, rates and
routes. The majority report cites i'm
provement in regulating railroads pro-
vided by the Hepburn law, but says
experience shows that some important
matters which should be subject to
government control are not within the
scope of the commissions authority.
Various subjects coming under this
head are discussed and the necessity
of embracing them within the law is
pointed out
Tho Minority Report.
The minority report opposes the
commerce court, the change in the
law requiring notice and hearings on
restraining orders, and the provisions
legalizing agreements among carriers
if filed, even if not approved by the
commission. The minority objects to
the commerce court being authorized
to legalize consolidation by permitting
the acquisition Of one competing line
by another. They also object to the re-
repeal of the proviso which forbids the
application of the act to intrastate
transportation. With the exception Of
Sims and Russell, the minority con-
demns the provisions as to competing
lines and stocks and bonds as unwar-
ranted interference with local author
ity. as calculated to favor established
lines, discourage new lines and pre-
vent further development in sections
which need more facilities.

1t Saves You M o ney.

The special half price sale of DR.. How
ards specific for the cure of constipation
and dyspepsia by II. B. Dutton Co.,
means the saving of a few dollars on ev-
cry family's yearly bill for medicines.
Each 80 cent bottle (Mr, Dutton sells 1t
for 25c) contains sixty doses of medi-
cine that is pleasant to take and which
can be depended upon to cure the worst
case of constipation, dyspepsia or liver
trouble. Mr.. button has so much faith
in the superior merit of the medicine
that he says: "If Dr. Towards specific
does not cure you, come back to my
store and will return your money"
This remedy is not an ordinary medi-
dine. 1t is the favorite formula of well
known physician, and has the endorse
ment of hundreds of physicians of emf.
hence in their profession, who prescribe
it in all cases of constipation, dyspepsia
or liver trouble, knowing from expert
ence that it will make complete and
lasting cure

THE CAUSE OF COLDS.
Good -AdvieeaResardins the Pre-
vention of Coughs and Colds.

If people would only fortify and
strengthen the system, the majority
of cases of coughs, colds and pneu-
monia might be avoided. These troub-
les are frequently due to weakness, which
produces catarrhal condition of the mu-
cous membrane, which is an internal
skin of the body. When this skin is
weakened it becomes easily infected
with germs which cause many of the
diseases to which flesh is heir. Healthy
mucous membranes are essential safe
guards of;the!body's general health.
An excellent aid in the prevention of
coughs, colds, pneumonia and such like
infectious diseases. is a remedy that will
prevent or cure catarrh.
We have a remedy which we honestly
believe to be unsurpassed in excellence
for the prevention of coughs, colds and
all catarrhal conditions. 1t is the pre-
scription of a famous physician, who has
an enviable reputation of thirty years of
cures gained through the use az this for
myla. We promise to make no charge
for the medicine should it fail 10 do as
we claim. We urge everybody who has
need of such medicine to try Rexall
Mucu1 Tone.
1t stands to reason that we could not
afford to make such statement and
give our own personal guarantee to this
remedy if we were not prepared to prove
the reasOnableness of our claim in every
particular, and we see no reason why
any one should hesitate TO accept our Of
fer and try it. We rave two sizes of
Rexall Mucu-T Tone, prices 80 cents and
800. Sometimes 50-cent bottle is
efficient to give marked relief. As a
general thing the most chronic case is
relieved with an average of three large
bottles. You can obtain Rexall Rene
dies in Middlebury only at our store
