to health. If we are to believe the
students Of science the action of this
remarkable remedy is just as direct,
just as positive, just as certain in it's
influence as that the sun rises in the
east. 1t Is one Of those rare medical
forces which act in the blood with
the same degree Of certainty that is
found in all natural tendencies.
Out through every skin pore acids and other
blood impurities are forced in the form of in
visible vapor. The lungs breathe 1t out, the
liver is stimulated to consume a great propor-
tion Of impurities, the stomach and intestines
cease to convey into the blood stream the catar-
rhal, malarial germs; the bowels, kidneys,
bladder and all emunctories Of the body are
narshalled into q fighting force to expel every

LEGISLATORS CHAFE
UNDER HARD RULES
Rank and File Are Little Bet
ter Off Than Under "UncIe
J0e."
By JOHN SNURE.

Agitation is growing at both ends oi
the Capitol over the rules. In the SEN
ate there is intense feeling over the
abuses OF the secret session, and in the
House the resentment is growing over
the fact that the rules. which many
misguided persons think have been lib
eralized. are in reality just about as re-
mote from being liberal as they We're in
the palmy days of Uncle Joe Cannon.
The recent trouble in the Senate

Commerce Commission. a struggle car

the demands of various progressive Sen

has brought the feeling against the exc
cutive session to a head.
This feeling found expression IN the
serving of notice by Senators Cumnins,
Lo Folette, Kenyon, Clapp. Norris.
Bristow and others that
they did not intend 20 observe the rule
of secrecy in this case.
Then came the Kenyon resolution to
abolish the executive session. This
was tabled by the combined votes of
of both Democratic and
parties. But it was done
only by one majority.
Senator La Toilette happened to be
absent at the time or the vote would
have been a tie, and it would have
been up to the Vice President.
Is Not the End.
This vote. however. is far from the
last word on the abolition of the eX-
ecutive session, save In case of treaties.
Senator Kenyon intends to keep up the
aggitation, and so do other Senators.
The truth Is. the executive session
for the purpose of considering nom
nations and any matter which is lot

Will Be Revelation.
If this is tried the country will have
a chance to see that the supposedly re-
formed Cannon rules have been Joker
lied" in such fashion that it is Il diff
ficuft job for the House to call a COM
mittee to time by moving to discharge
1t from consideration of measure
which it is attempting to sidetrack.
The House has little more control
over it's committees than it had when
the big fights on the rules was made
in 1910. The House machine still is
dominant, though through other
methods than Cannon used. The rule
providing for a calendar Of motions
to discharge committees can be
reached only twice a month. More
over, there are so many restrictions
around it. that it is difficult to make
any practical use of il.
As an illustration. majority of the
House membership is required to
auOpt " d COIn-
mittee. The ordinary motion or meas
ure is passed by a majority of those
present. And this is but one of a
of restrictions calculated to
prevent the discharge calendar from
being useful
Whether or not the illustration of
the difficulties comes In connection
with the prohibition bill, there is
growing feeling over the rules as to
this and other matters. The leaders
will try to block the prohibition test.
