bers are Culberson of Texas, Simmons o.
North Carolina, Clarke of Arkansas
Bankhead of Alabama, Fletcher of Flor
ida, Williams of Mississippi, Kern of In
diana and Hitchcock of Nebraska The
last two represent the pronounced Pro
%ressiv" element in the Senate. The COM
mittoe's first function will be TO take UP
the personnel of committees. The Repub-
lican members for this task already have
been chosen.
Several Of the more important commit
tees probably will be enlarged to meet
the demands of the Democratic senators
for greater representation on them. Thu
demands for places by Republican sena
tors is so strong that it does not seem
practicable to reduce the Republican rep
resentation, and the Democrats insist on
more liberal recognition.
Gallinger chairman of the Republican,
committee ON committees, conferred or
this subject today with. Martin and they
fellow senators. The minority report took
the position that there should he at least
four Democrats to every five Republican,

disposed to concede the fairness of this
contention in the main. held ont for more

Saros' Is not an ordinary medicine; it

the most delicate. Its tonic effect gives
strength and health so that after its use
for short time all the fiesh and fat pro-
ducng clements in the food will be easily
assimiiated and retained by the body
The large sale druggists Bowditch
Webster IL Co. had on Samose since first
introduced in Augusta and the wonderful
results following its use have made them
such enthusiastic believers in its great
merits that they give their personal
guarantee to refund the money if Samose
does not make thin people fat and restore
strength and health.
