Congress convenss.

When Congress meets today, one OF
Its earliest tasks will be that of draft
ing and passing the appropriation bills
for the fiscal year ending June 80. 1918.
Since this Congress will adjourn on
March 8, the work must be attended
to promptly, and not allowed to drag
as was the case in the last session.
That the appropriations will be large
Is already certain, though possibly not
quite so large as those made by the
session that closed last September.
In connection with this subject,
there will be some discussion of the
project of a budget, made up either by
q joint committee of the two houses of
Congress, or by the President and his
advisers in the executive departments.
Those who advocate presidential
budget do so upon the theory that the
President and his cabinet will keep
down the estimates for national ex-
penditures. Experience with the last
Congress shows, however, that econ
omy is not likely to be reached in that
way. for the estimates and demands of
the members of the Presidents cabi-
net far exceeded the appropriations
Congress actually made. A Presiden-
tial budget under the control of the
Wilson cabinet would have been an
expensive luxury to the nation.

There Is every reason to expect a
continuance of the high prices for beef
for several years to come. One Of the
largest packing houses in the country
has contracts that run until the close
of the war, for furnishing beef to the
allied armies. With the end of the
war far away. and with the herds on
the ranges growing smaller, there is
every encouragement for the man who
is engaged in raising beef cattle. The
company referred to has a steady
market so large that it is installing
cold storage plants on 60 ships for the
beef-carrying trade, and is extending
its operations to Brazil. The war has
been a great boon to the producer Of
beef, though the American consumer
has to bear his share of the extra bur-
den incident to high prices.

Poisoned By Thousands!
INV L. H. Smith, NJ. d.

Tho victims of auto-intoxication are
many thousand every day. BY reason OF
the toxins, or poisons. bred in the in
testines, these poisonous bacteria are
sent all through the blood channels and
the victim feels tired, sleepy and head
achy. or the brain doesn't work as usual.
The best treatment for this Is to drink
hot water before breakfast-plenty OF
water all day and procure supply of Dr.
Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. made of May
apple, leaves Of aloes, ETC., with no caio-
mel. entirely vegetable, which can be
obtained at drug stores for 3 cents.
Equally important is it to cleanse kid
neys and bladder, and drinking plentifuliy
of pure water will cleanse them to Il
certain extent Then obtain at the drug
store a little Anuric. which was first dis
covered by DR.. Pierce Of Surgical Insti-
tute in Buffalo. Anuric should be taken
before meals. It is many times more
potent than lithia In throwing off the
poinonous accumulations Of uric acid.
DR.. Weir Mitchell once said: What
we call diseases are only symptoms of

ripe for any Of these weaknesses, or GER

Anuric has been tested for the past few
years for kidney, bladder, uric acid

ailments as follow, and so many cases
both acute and stubborn have yielded to
this wonderful remedy that l do not
hesitate to recommend it-Adv.

And They Got Away With It.

Near the close of the recent cam
paign it became apparent that prices
of the necessities of life had risen
much faster than wages paid to labor
have advanced, but the burden upon
the consumer did not become great
enough sufficient length of time be-
fore election to influence many votes.
The cost of living did not figure much
in the campaign, notwithstanding it
was a much more serious problem to
the people Of the country than it was
in 1912, when 1t was one of the most
effective subjects of Democratic cam
paign speakers.
OF all their multitudes of broken
promises, the Democratic leaders
seemed to suffer least from their fail
ure to keep the promise to reduce the
cost of living. They succeeded in
making many people believe that they
were entitled to credit for the prosper
ity which the war brought, but es-
capped censure for the increase in
prices to the consumer. The fact is
that the cost of living advanced under
the war began, while wages and emu
ployment grew less. The Democrats
denied responsibility for either. Then
when the war revived industry in
many lines, they pointed to the dinner
pals that Wilson had filed but
charged the high cost of living against
the war, and, in most cases, they got
away with it."

Secretary of War Baker announced
on election day that he would resign
March 4, whether Wilson won or not.
He was appointed because of the
political influence he had in Ohio. He
knew absolutely nothing about the
army, and said so. He served his
political purpose well. and that was all
about where he found it, so far as eff
ficiency is concerned.
