SHORT SESSION OF CONGRESS,
Hod. E. B. Lewis, onr immediate
mil a I ile representative in Congress,
i- already at the national capital and,
with others of the Georgia delegation,
»ill ho on hand tomorrow when the
»!iort session of Congress is convened.
Many highly important measures will
l i n ought np for consideration at this
- -ion, quite likely.
l'irst in importance, quite likely,
"ill he tho subject of a revision of the
tillin', and, unless all signs fail, the
tariff will not be revised. President
Koosevelt may he exceedin
!.v in earnest in his expressed de
sire to see the schodulo amended, hut
with the'eomposition of Congress nl
most identically the same ns during
the long t<4m, when the intluenco of
tln‘ trusts and monopolies were domi
nant, it is not likely that even the
-trenuous president will bo able to
make a breach in the walls.
Tho ship subsidy bill, which passed
the Henato in tho early part of the long
term, will come before the honse, and
in all likelihood go down to defeat.
The champions of the measure are pro-
lured to make a hard fight for it, but
as its provisions do not appeal to
enough coporate interests, the out
look for its enactment is dreary.
Then thero is the Cuban reciprocity
mensuse.
Considerable has been written and
said about the blanket Indians who
rounded up the measure before, to tho
effect that thoy had repented. But
tho recent election contained no re
buke to them, and it is reasonable to
suppose they will accordingly remain
on guard, with drawn knives and
painted faces, to kill and scalp all ns
before.
Also thero is Mr. Cmmpncker’s in
quiry election resolution, proposing
an investigation of tho franchise in
tho South. Mr. Boosevelt is now said
to be lending his support to tho meas
ure, but as Mr. Crumpacker was un
able to rally a coporul’s guard around
his bloody shirt of a flag Inst session,
it is not probable that ho will now
succeed where he before failed.
A resolution introduced in tho Honso
a day or two ago doclores it to be tho I
sense of the General Assembly that tho I
common school fund allotted to each
county shall bo apportioned by tho I
county board among tho whites and I
negroes in proportion to tho amount of I
taxes paid by each race. Tho resoln-1
tion was referred to tho Educational |
Committee.

The young mother thinks, when she has

done something more foe the baby than
merely to prepare bis clothes. Many a

Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is the
one medicine for women which prepares
them perfectly, both for the burdens and
pleasures of maternity. It prevents the
morning siekness from which so many
women suffer. It strengthens the whole
body, so that there is no nervousness nor
anxiety. It promotes a healthy appetite
and causes refreshing sleep. It gives the
mother strength for her trial and makes
the baby’s advent practically painless.
Healthy mothers have healthy children,
and it is the general testimony of those
who huve used Dr. Pi.n-o’a 1*nt„
who have used Dr. Pierce’s Favorite
Prescription as a preparative for mother
hood, that the children were healthier
and happier than those bom after
months of mental misery and physical
anguish on the part of the prospective
mother.
Sick and ailing women are invited to
consult Dr. Pierce by letter absolutely
without fee or charge. As chief consult-
ing physician to the Invalids’ Hotel and
Surgical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y., Dr.
v. Pierce, assisted by his staff of
nearly a score of physicians, has in the
past thirty years and over treated and
cured more than half a million sick and
suffering women. The testimonials of
these cured women are on record. A
Urge number of them were cured when
doctors had pronounced a cure impossi
ble and after enduring years of useless
suffering.
Let no sick women hesitate to take ad
vantage of Dr. Pierce’s offer, but write
at once and so secure the professional
counsel of a specialist in the diseases of
women, entirely free. All correspond
ence strictly private and sacredly confi
dential. Address Dr. R. V. Pierce, Buf

A country girl, rosy checked and de
mure, sat In a Reading railway car tho
other day. The train waa juat pulling
out of a small station on the main lino
when a city man Jumped on and.'as
there was no other seat vacant, shared
the one occupied by the country girl.
To tho writer, who >vas sitting oppo
site, it was easy-to see the newcomer
was trylpg to make n ‘‘mash.’ 1 Tho
girl, however, was rending a Bible, and
ns he found his fidgeting did not at
tract her attention ho cast his eyes over
tho ear for other prey. This was not
encouraging, so he started un onslaught
on the girl next to him.
"Pardon me," he snid, "do you bo-
iiovo nil you rend in tho Bible?"
“Yes, sir,” sho replied, raising her
eyes from the itnge.
“Not the story of Adam aud Eve?"
“Yes, sir."
“And of Cain and Abel?"
“Yes. sir.”
"But certainly you don’t behove thp
atory of Jonah mid tho whale?”
The girl said she believed that too.
Her questioner looked puzxlcd. “But
how nro you going to prove It? Ask
Joimli when yon go to heaven?”
The idea struck tho girl aa n good
one, nnd she said she would prove ft
that way. /
‘Suppose he isn’t there, what then?
How would you prove It?”
The girl thought n moment, then
sold, "Well, In that case you might nsk
him.”
No other word was spoken by tho'
pair during tho remainder of the trip.—
