Washington.-The senate of the Uni- ted States is not an altogether amia- ble place these days. but if the people are surprised at the occasional sharp personalities which are exchanged. let them think for a moment how much better things are today than they were Ill the past when there was little or no check on the tongue, and on more than one occasion no check on the fist.
 In sixteen years service in the press gallery there has come to my know ledge only one physical encounter on the floor of the senate. and as that "aS in executive session and no one would talk about it, the affair is shroud2d in ebSeurity to this day so far as the actual facts are concerned.

 About fifteen years ago Senator Spooncr of Wisconsin, now dead, and Senator Tillman of south Carolina. who also is dead, had interchange af- Ter interchange of personalities while debating. Each had a seat on the cen ter aisle, their desks being almost op- posite each other. The galleries time and again thought that there would be real explosion with fragments nvlng about, but both men kept well within bounds which in earlier days of the senate certainly would have been passed.
 Tn the house of representatives per sonalitics come more frequently than in the senate. but the house. like the senate, Is much better behaved in these days than it was in other days. There was q personal encounter about twelve years ago between a member from Missouri and member from Mississippi. but not much damage was done.

Some of the debates between Sumner of Massachusetts. Mason of Virginia. Butler of South Carolina in the old days whom read will make people un. derStand how parliamentary debate has improved in manners with the passing of the years.
 Even after the Civil war when men seemingly had had enough of acrimony there were some highly exciting yer bal encounters on the floor of the sen ate. Men dcalt even as late as the Sev- entieS. in personalities. sometimes of cruel kind, even taking advantage sometimes of an adversary'S physical peculiarities or mannerisms In order to humiliate him.
 During the debates of the rccou- struetion period Blaine from the North and Hill from the South went after each other with verbal Sledge ham, mel'S and occasionally the debates waNed so hot that men feared trouble. The nearest approach to anything of serious nature in comparatively re- cent years was when one senator arose and calmly said of another senator who belonged to the same political party, The senator from - does not know how to debate with gentlemen"
 The senator to whom this remark was addressed was known as fire eater. However he knew his own fail ings of temper and to the utter amaze ment of the senate he took the person. al rebuke with due meekness. saving that he had forgotten himself when he was talking few minutes before, and that perhaps there was some justifica- ton at the moment for what was said oe him.

DO YOU LOVE GOOD
HEALTH?

Good health is wealth. The
value of health is best appre-
ciated by those who lack it.
Money is a mockery to the
sickly millionaire. Without
good health your life is a bur-
den. Are you ambitious for
success? Do you care for pow
er, advancement, and happi-
ness? Or do you wish to be of
greater value to yourself, to
others or your country? Then
you must surely have better
health. Drugs, patent medi-
cineS and poisonous noStrumS do
not develop good health. The
Indian medicine man does not
believe in poiSons and harmful
drugs. He uses Natures re-
Storative remedies, roots, herbs,
berries, flowers and vegetables
that he knows are of great help
ing power. Impure blood and
depleted nerves cause many sick
nesses and make you subject to
