NERVOUS TROUBLE
 QUICKLY VANISHED
w. L. Wood Agreeably Sur prised With Results Obtained
TREATMENT A SUCCESS
Happiness and Health Assured to All
 Who Give Preparation Thorough Test-Deiay is Fatal

? Mr William Lee Wood of North Bir- mlngham, Ala is among hundreds of Birmingham people who are now en- thusiastic indorsers of the new tonic, "Tona Vita" that is having such tre- mendous sale in this city at present.
 MT. Wood said This .Tona Vita has done more for me than any medicine l have ever taken. l got the tonic a short time ago and am feeling better than I have for long time.
 Before using this tonic l was com pletely run down. l slept poorly, ana the little sleep 1 did get did not peneht me. I was very nervous at tlmes' ana also had very poor circulation
 The first few days I noticed great Improvement, in fact began to Improve after the first dose of 'Tona Vita 1 could hardly believe It myself and thought it must be my imagination, as T had tried so many different reme- dies without relief. I have now taken about bottle of the tonic and I am feeling better every day. 1 sleep well, eat well and have much more strength, and I am not nervous as I was. This IS a marvellous tonic, judging by what it has done for me-"
 The representatives who are introduce ing the new tonic in this city are meeting the public at the Collier Drug company, 109-111 North 20th street, from Q a. m to 8 D. m. The representatives state that the success of the tonic here is larger than they anticipated, and that a great many people are taking the tonic here in this city.
 While we are meeting callers now each day and hundreds of debilitated people are regaining their health through the use of our tonic there are hundreds more whom We want to reach before we leave. If all the men and women who are struggling along de- pressed in mind and body by nervous debility, unable to get any real enjoy ment out of living, would only take the time to come in and talk to us, we would bring a tremendous amount of happiness to the people of this city. There is little real pleasure in life for an individual who feels continually worn out. Positively the very first dose of our tonic benefits a man or woman in this condition.'
 Enthusiasm continues to prevail gen. erally where the new product called sFrona Vita has been used. The great amount of good which seems to have been accomplished is the cause of con siderable excitement by those who have seen it's wonderful work. Case after case of people who were comparatively nervous wrecks and those who have been suffering from stomach trouble for years have been reported and the results of "Tona Vita" were said to have been astonishing in nearly every case.

HOPING TO END SESSION
 BEFORE CONVENTIONS
BY WALTER HARPER

Washington, April 25.-(Special )-With less than 60 days remaining before the meeting time of the national conventions Congress is still begging away with the end nowhere in sight The leaders have expressed desire and hope to wind ur the business Of the session before the conventions. Most of them believe that this will be done somehow, but they dc not know how.
 There is a vast amount of work yet to be done. The house has completed a sat isfactory tariff revision programme unless the Senate catches up and demands or makes room for the revision of additional schedules. This is not expected. If two of the measures now pending before the Senate are worked through during next month the Senate will have done well.
 The House is speeding up on the ap- propriation bills and will have them all through in ample time for adjournment before the conventions, but the Senate has given but little consideration to any of these bills yet. But appropriation bills are easy for the Senate. That body can appropriate millions of dollars in few hours and without apparent consid- eration. will say, however, that most of the work of the Senate is accomplished ln the committees. The actual passage of pills on the floor is but the perfume tory operation that makes the perform ance legal.
 If the Senate desires it can put on speed and within an almost increrible space of time can accomplish all the work that the House has laid out for it. Some believe that this will be done and that congressman will be able to return to their homes from the national conven- tions

1 If the republican Senate elects to rest l it's tariff case where it is now the demo- erats will probably be satisfied and will allow adjournment of the session when
 the appropriation hills are disposed of. As far as politics is concerned the demo- cratic party has made and completed it's record, but 1t is sincere in it's desire for 1 actual relief to the people. But it is a certain fact that Mr Underwood cannot walk over to the republican Senate and demand that they pass the woolen, steel, sugar or any other bill. He and his dem- ocartic associates have done all that they can to secure tariff revision.
 Their side Of the case is already before the people. The people are waiting for the republicans to close their side of the case.
 They may close when and where they chose. If they decide to close at the pres ent juneture, we'll and good. The respon- sibility belongs to them, whatever that responsibility may be. If they desire to pass the bills and send them up to the President for his veto they may do so.
 If they choose to pass revision bills and the President is persuaded by reasons po- lftical or otherwise they have the oppor- unity and the time. Such a result would be pleasing to the democrats and would rob them of none of the credit in a no- litieal sense.
 The case now rests with the republicans. What will they do with it? The demo- crats are ready to quite or continue The republicans really do not know what to do. They are unable so far to choose be- tween non-aetion in the Senate or place the President in the attitude of again opposing-even defeating any revision Of the tariff.
 As TO the issue. that has already been Vaa dA fc 4,a 1-t- licans to evade it either with a clamor or through non-action. Any move they make renders the issue more acute in the minds of the people.

Red and Black Rain

In certain paris of Spain last winter red and black snow fell. The phenomenon is cXplaird as brig duo io the presence in the atmosphere in unusual quanti- lies of certain mineral salts. History mentions day when "ihc Heavens rajncd blood" In inc Middle Ages such an occur rance was accepted as predict ing war or famine, OF at any rate ihc shedding of blood. The presence of q micro-Organisnl seems always lO accompany rcd rain. In volcanic regions gray hail is relatively common.

During the past century there have been black rains in England twice and on both occa- siOns tho color was due to the presence of micro-organisms.

SUFFRAGE CAMPAIGN IN ORE
 CON.

The campaign for woman sui fragc in Oregon is proceeding With Vigur and determination that promise success ill Novcm- Der. Past defeats in that state have not discouraged the work CTS. They feel that conditions are more favorable than ever be- fore. With Washington on the north and California on the south having political equality of the sexes, the Oregon advocates are resolved that this year shall see all the Pacic coast states in line. The press is giving more sup port to the movement than for mcrly, and on the part of the general. public there is less dis position to oppose.
 At the present time the move mcnt is being aided by Dr. Anna Howard Shaw, president of the American Surage association, and by the Rev Charles r Aked of San Francisco, who came over from England to New York city few years ago Both are great speakers
 In recent speech in Portland Dr. Aked summed up his argu- ments by saying there was never a time in all the history of all humanity that an unenfranchis- ed class about to receive the right of franchise was so fit to receive it as the women of Ore gOn and of the United States gen. orally. He is an enthusiast in inc cause, as is shown by his comparison of women and men as follows:
 "WOmen are better educated fhan men in America: every high school graduating class con f2InS more girls than boys; the American women are more Su- brr than inc American men: the American women are more moral than American men. The Amer jean women are less drunken ahan the American men: they are less criminal than the Am triran men: the country over, only 5 I-2 per cent. of the crime jS committed by women, and in the Oregon pcnilcntiary and the Oregon jails only per cent. of inc inmates are women. The American women are more hon est than the American men. Then om what conceivable grounds are you denying them the fran rhiSr?'
 While he bull moose party has a woman suffrage plank in it's platform, it is making no spc- cial effort in behalf of the con StiIuIi0nal amendment pending in Oregon. The managers of the Wnnlan Sullrag" campaign. mind ful of lhr failure of Inc bull uIuuS" In du anything for the cause in Ohio lhiS month, are mol In"kimg to inc new party for special support.
