DRYS WILL AID
THURSTON BILL
Reapportionment Measure
May Cause FiIibuSter.

BIZ ScriDpS-H otCGrd NesospGDer Alliance
WASHINGTON, Feb. 14.-The
drys are making common cause with
the loser states in an eleventh hour
attempt to upset reapportionment
in favor Of the Thurston bill, en-
larging the house from 435 seats to
ATS seats.
Hearings in the house census COM
mittee reveal that not only is there
safe majority favoring the Thurs
ton measure, but that the rules
committee has a majority of one in
favor Of ruling. A poll Of house
members indicates that there are
$40 members from dry and agri-
cultural states due to lost member
ship under the Fem law. These
might vote for enlarging the house
membership and thus save their
states from loss Of seats under the
present reapportionment scheme.
Should the Thurston bill come to
the floor in the next fortnight, the
western and southern states gaining
under reapportionment rely on help
from Speaker Longworth, from
Ohio, which gains seats. Failing
there, California, Texas and other
members probably would f1libuster.
California is the biggest gamer
under reapportionment, increasing
her seats from II to 20. Under the
Thurston bill her proportionate
gain would be nil.

WANT TO LOOK YOUNG?

The secret of keeping young is to
feel young-to do this you must
watch your liver and bowels-there's
NO need of having a sallow COM
pleXion--dark rings under your eyes
,-pimples-a bilious look in your
face-dull eyes with no sparkle. Your
doctor will tell you ninety per cent
of all sickness comes from inactive
bowels and liver.
DR.. Edwards, a well-known ply
sician in Ohio, perfected vegetable
compound as a substitute for Gallo
mel to act on the liver and bowels,
which he gave to his patients for
years.
Or. Edwards Olive Tablets are gentle
IN their action yet always effective.
They help bring about that natural
buoyancy which all should enjoy by
foning up the liver and clearing the
system of impurities
Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets are known
by their olive color. 15c, SOC, 60c.-Ad-
