A. A. Howes & Co. the popular druggists have

their own opinion of the best way of selling
medicine. They say the plan adopted by Mi

est they have ever heard of. They don't be-
lieve that medicine ought to be paid for un-
less it does the user some good And Mi-o-na
is sold under a positive guarantee to relieve
dyspepsia or to refund the money. You simply
leave 30 cents on deposit with A. A. Howes &
20. and if. after you have used the box of Mi
o-na you decide that it has done you no good
all you have to do is to tell them so and they
will return your money.

OLDER But STRONGER

To be healthy at seventy, prepare at
forty, is sound advice, because in the
strength of middle life we too often forget
that neglected colds, or careless treat
ment of slight aches and pains, simply
undermine strength and bring chronic
weakness for later years.
To be stronger when older, keep your
blood pure and rich and active with the
strengthening and blood-nourishing
properties of SCOTS Emulsion which lisa
food, a tonic and medicine to keep your
blood rich, alleviate rheumatism and
avoid sickness. No alcohol in Scott's.

Public Building
Saved From Plot
Two Suspects Arrested with
Bomb Following Threat to
Blow Up Structure.

Special to The Washington Herald.
New York, Jan. ga bomb plot aimed
at a public building is believed to have
been frustrated tonight by the arrest of
Michele Grasiano and Leonardo de WHO.
Both. the police say, are associated with
the Bresci group of anarchists.
Grasiano was arrested in the Manhat-
tan terminus Of the Brooklyn Bridge. He
carried at the time a powerful bomb in
suitcase. For half an hour he had
been lettering in the corridors of the
Municipal Building. Capt. Tunney, Of the
bomb squad" admits his Office had been
informed an attempt would be made to
blow up some immense public building
in New York City tonight" Devizio was
arrested in his home two hours after
-Grasiano had been arrested.
Both men are technically charged with
acting In concert in having a bomb in
their possession with which they intended
to destroy life and property"

Intervention Hope
In Senate Is Dead
Republicans Refuse Wilson
Advantage that War in
Mexico Would Bring.

The minority in the Senate in favor
Of intervention in Mexico is still numeri-
cally negligible, after ten days of heated
controversy following the murder of
eighteen American citizens at Santa
Ysabel.
This is the conviction Of Senator Borah,
after a canvass OF sentiment In the Sen
ate. Opposition among Republican Sem
ators is based on the ground that action
now would result in substantial political
advantage to President Wilson.
The feeling among Democratic Senators.
as Senator Borah finds it. is that imme-
date intervention might be of less politi-
cal value than action taken more nearly
on the eve of the Presidential campaign.
All the Intervention resolutions have
gone over until the next meeting of the
Foreign Relations Committee. Unless
some other outrage Is committed, It Is be-
lieved they will be still further postponed
in line with the Democratic policy of
keeping the lid down tight on the Mexi-
can question.

breach Of promise action Of Cora Maude
Clarke, against John Leon Martin,
broker, reported today they were unable
to agree upon verdict. Supreme Court

alleged Martin promised to marry her in
1907. He admitted that he did promise
to marry her in 1907, but claimed she
and he agreed, in 1905, they would not
marry. Thereafter they continued their
friendship until March. 1872 when he
married Miss Maud Eddie.
During the course Of the trial. Mrs.
Clarke produced several letters from
Martin, In which she was called his
"boo'ful baby and his Darling Doll" /"
When Martins counsel summed up the
case. he referred to his client as poor
boob" who had belived fairy tales
told to him by Mrs Clarke.
The jurors stood seven TO five in favor
of granting Mrs. Clarke damages.

Seven chemists narrowly escaped injury

The blast threw the hundreds of en-

the explosion occurring at 4:S5, as they
were quitting work. The damage was
estimated to be about 81. coo.
The cause of the explosion is being in

SENATOR HITS
COTTON PLEA
John Sharp Williams Lashes
Southerners Who Find Fault
with British Embargo.
SAYS u. S. CANNOT AFFORD
TO BULLY THE ENGLISH NOW
Declares Non-Intercourse with Allies
Would Mean Death to Cotton
Industry Here.

Another stormy debate on foreign
Affairs marked the proceedings of the
Senate yesterday. Senator Hoke Smith.
Of Georgia. started it when he attack
ed the British embargo
Senator John Sharp williams, OF
Mississippi. was stirred TO action by
Senator Smiths anxiety for the inter
ests of the cotton producers. Senator
Williams said:
Cotton is worth 1898 cents a pound
spot in the Memphis market II peace
came tomorrow. cotton would not be
worth over 10 cents a pound. II the
Senator from Georgia could have his
way and the measures which he advo-
Gates were enacted they would result
In nonintercourse with the allies. un-
less the allies are going to stand still
like a lot of whipped ours while they
are engaged in a war for life and lib
erty and obey the ukase of Congress
with 10000 in the army behind it and
a fourth rate navy.
1T is absurd to suppose that they
would be cowardly enough to stand
bullying from a nation which can
not bully, because IT has nothing to
bully with. To say to Great Britain
and her allies that we purpose put
ting an embargo on munitions OF war
contrary to our traditional policy IN
less they change their blockade and
sit down in a fight which they be-
lieve to be for the liberty and inde-
pendence Of the world against a new
Roman Empire revamped and reyar-
nished, is absurd. What would follow,
IL we did? Commercial non-inter-
course. Then what would become of
cotton? Cut off the British. French
and Italian markets. and their de-
tendencies, and cotton would not be
worth cents week after next
Life Above Property.
Il dislike arguing a great interna-
tional question from the standpoint
of special interests, though it be my
own interests. I do not think the
fact that / might or might not be
bankrupted by this war temporarily
is a sufficient reason for undertaking
to let German or English or French
or Russian or italian soldiers kill
American boys summoned to the coIors.
1T is about time you were recognizing
