DRIVES COLD FROM SYSTEM
Breaks the Worst Cold and Ends
Grippe Misery in Few Hours

The most effective and harmless
way to cure the Grippe or break Sc
we're cold, either in the head, chest,
back, stomach, or limbs is a dose OF
Papes Cold Compound, every two
hours until three consecutive doses
are taken.
You will distinctly feel the cold
breaking and all grippe symptoms go
ing after the very first dose. 1t
promptly relieves the most miserable
neuralgia pains, headache, dullness,
head and nose stuffed up, feverish-
ness, sneezing, sore throat, running
of the nose, soreness, stiffness and
rheumatic aching.
Take this harmless Compound as
directed with the knowledge that
there is no other medicine made any
where else in the world, which will
cure your cold or end Grippe misery
as promptly and without any other
assistance or bad after effects as a
rs cent package of Pape's Cold Com
pound, which any druggist in the
world can supply.
After three years research we
have conclusiyely demonstrated that
quinine is not effective in the treat
ment of colds or grippe.

)ne of the Biggest Stumbling Blocks the Path Of Progress
MRS. SAMUEL 3. HAWKS
Sudden Death Of WeII-Known Woman
Resident at Troy Hospital.

Mrs. Carrie Isabel Douglas Chap
pell Hawks, widow OF the late Samuel
Brown Hawks, passed away at IL o.
clock Sunday evening at the Samari-
tan hospital in Troy of collapse fol-
lowing an operation for goitre. The
operation, which she underwent on
Friday, was supposed to possess but
few elements of risk, and her sudden
passing away is therefore all the
more of shock to the members OF
her family to whom she was bound by
unusually affectionate ties and the
large circle of acquaintance that her
particularly happy disposition had
created during her residence in Ben
nington. That she did not for a
moment anticipate the possibility of
fatal result from the operation is
evidenced from the fact that she sub
mitted to the treatment at time
when two Of her children were far
from home, one in Havana, Cuba, and
another in Philadelphia and other
family relatives were absent from
town.
Mrs. Hawks was a native of Mar
Sellles, ILL.,, daughter OF j. N. Cnap'
pell and was married in that city
September 8, 1887, to Samuel Brown
Hawks, a native of this village and
son OF William Il. Hawks. She was
born February Is, 1866, and had
therefore just passed her 45th ami
versary Her husband died in Au
gust 1899 She is survived by three
sons and a daughter, Samuel Brown
William Edward, Douglas and Heller
Jeannett. The first named some
weeks ago went to Havana, Cuba, fol
the winter, William is student at thu
University of Pennsylvania and tn,
younger son and the daughter are II

er reside in Illinois.
The arrangements for the funera
can not be made until after the ar
rival here of members of the famil,
but the service will probably be hell
at the home OF her father-in-law
William Il. Hawks, on North street

GOWN LIKE MISS TAFT's
Hostess Daughter Wore Same ExcIu

Washington, Feb 19.-That gowns

counted on even by patrons of the
best Of Paris makers was again illu.
strated at Washington dinner party
few nights ago. when Miss Taft
was the guest OF honor. The young
daughter of the hostess, who spent
the Autumn in Paris, where she in
vested a large portion of her dress
allowance in one dinner gown, assist
ed in welcoming the guests in a
creation of blue satin yelled in rose
colored tulle, with embellishments of
gold, and a glrdle the chief feature of
which was cluster OF grapes repro
ducing the tints of the tulle and the
satin.
When Miss Taft arrived she wore
an exact counterpart of her friends
gown, except that the colors were re-
versed, the under robe being pink
satin, with the overdress OF blue and
bands Of gold. The girdle and the
grapes were identical.
A similar incident occurred when
Miss Alice Roosevelt was the debu-
tante of the White House. Her
handsomest visiting gown OF white
cloth and Irish lace was duplicated
for Miss Alice Ward, who later be.
came Nine. Riano. wife OF the pres.
ent Minister from Spain. The two

ALLLONG DISTANCE
TRAIN RECORDS
WERE BROKEN
Trans Continental Trip by
Charles G. Gates
OBTAIN EXPERT TREATMENT
Son Of FInsncier Has BruIse on Leg
and Blood Poisoning Has
Developed
OBTAIN EXPERT TREATMENT

New York, Feb. 2O.--A record in
long distance travel by train was
made by the arrival here last night
of Charles G. Gates, son of John w.
Gates, the New York financier, com
pleting dash of nearly 5000 miles
across the continent to obtain expert
treatment for a case of blood poison
ing. The physician who met him
said that there was no immediate dan
ger, and If the case went no worse
than he expected, Mr.. Gates might
be himself again in few weeks.
A chain OF fast trains carried Mr..
Gates over 29S9 miles of track in
seventy-eight hours including all OF
the several stops which are necessary
for changing engines, switching, etc.
This is an average for the whole dis
lance of thirty-seyen miles an hour,
counting stops.
] The fastest time ever made from
Chicago to New York is that of Mr..
Gates train in 16 hours and 45 min
utes. The portion of the trip cover
ed in the fastest time was that be
tween Toledo and Cleveland, when
los miles was covered in ninety-sev-
en- minutes. The last leg of the jour
ney over the New York Central lines
from Albany was made in exactly a
mile a minute, Notwithstanding time
taken to change from steam to cleo
trio locomotion at High Bridge
Mr.. Gates was so alarmed over the
infection of bruise on his leg while
travelling in the west last week that
he offered $4,000 for special train fare
to New York for treatment.
Mr.. Gates was in a cheerful mood
when the train arrived here and is In
as good condition as could be expect
ed. His physician explained that MI
Gates suffered a similar bruise two
years ago and had had so much trou
BILE from infection at that time thai
he did not desire to take the slight
est chance In his present trouble.

RECIP ROCITY OR
EXTRA SESSION
OF CONGRESS
President PUTS It Up" to the
Senate
STATEMENT BY M'CALL
Administration Under international
Obligation to See Measure Put
Through

Washington, Feb. 20.-The first
authoritative announcement that Pre-
sident Taft will call an extra session
of Congress IL the Senate fails to act
upon the Mccall bill carrying into
effect the Canadian reciprocity agree
ment, has come from Mr.. Mccall him
self, following an interview with the
president at the White House.
In Mr. McCall's statement, which Is
generally understood to have been
approved formally by the president,
he says:
Il believe Republican senators are
gradually coming to recognize that,
with the certain prospect Of an extra
session unless they bring the recipro-
city bill to a vote, there will be very
serious inconvenience and embarrass-
ment if not danger to the business
and industrial enterprises that are
really entitled to protection. The
president feels that he Ia under an
international obligation to summon
an extra session, and will do this re-
luctantly, because it is bringing into
power a Democratic House and Sen
ate much more nearly Democratic
than the present Senate. But II the
Senate should fail to act, the Presi-
dent feels that under his agreement
with the Canadian government to use
his utmost endeavor to have the reel
procity agreement confirmed, he will
be compelled to call the session I'M
Imediately."
While it is the evident purpose Of
the president, in permitting the an
nouncement OF Mr.. Mccall, to avoid
an extra session by inducing senators
to act upon the agreement, 1t Is the
opinion of many about the capitol
that in all probability the statement
has come too late.' With appropria-
ton bills badly congested, the Lori
mer case pending, the permanent tar
III board bill pressing for considera-
ton, the general service pension bill
being urged by many senators and the
resolution for the popular election Of
senators coming up daily as the I'M
finished business, the chances for ac-
ton upon the reciprocity agreement
seem slight, but Of course, conditions
may change.
There is some prospect that the
Lorimer case may be disposed OF on
Wednesday following a speech which
Senator Lorimer will make In his
own behalf, but there is no apparent
likelihood OF early votes on any OF
the other important measures men
toned.

said. Politicians will find that II
