Senator Morgan still blocks the progress of the Senate. Senator Reed Sinoot of Utah re gards as very securely seated. Senator Tillman the South Caro lina steer, lias been chosen a mem ber of the democratic steering com mittee. A notorius ex-senator threatens to Billy-Mason-ize the Chicago municipal campaign. It looks as if Arthur Pue Gor man's return to the Senate meant a total eclipse of William Jennings Bryan. Apparently the law forbidding the sale of liquor in the Capitol had a string to it. General Miles is preparing to give his enemies another opening. He is about to write a book. The new Senator from Delaware has already earned the soubriquet of"The Hon. Hi-Ball." The Ex-Queen of Hiwaii and Secretary Cortelyou are now in posi tion to sympathize with each other over the stinginess of Congress. Senator Alice of Delaware shows resentment when referred to as "Senator Allee-Samee-Addicks. The short session of Congress ac complished a good deal in spite of the democratic filibusters. The people of New York are still waiting with interest for the first appearance of Dr. Parkhurst's ideal newspaper. The special session of the Senate and the ('rum and Byrne nomina tions demonstrate that President Roosevelt is a man of his word. Senator Hanna may yet have to accept the second placa on the presidential ticket. Mr. Roose velt didn't want it. There is already talk of a finan cial stringency and the democrats must be prepared to tell why the Aldrich bill was not passed. Secretary Cortelyou has already made a lunge at monopoly. He has sent a man to Japan to import terrapin. There was something very pecul- | iar about the democratic free trade I arguments against the Philippine \ tariff bill.

An American from Texas got Into trouble with a gendarme In the City of Mexico during the Spanish-American war, when foreign and local sentiment was against the United States. The offense consisted largely in the fact that the stranger was an American, but he landed in Jail nevertheless. Not wishing to see the Texan spend the night in Jail, liis friends sallied forth Jo obtain his release. First they visited hie home of the American ambassador and found he was out of the city. Then they went to the home of the English minister and found him iu bed. Isy dint of insistence they succeeded in getting into the house and were met on the staircase by the minister himself, arrayed In official pajamas. Carefully disguising the fact that their Impris oned friend was an American, they ap pealed for assistance. "Ah," said the minister cautiously, "your man Is in Jail, is he? But tell me, is he a British subject?" "Your excellency," said General Agremonte, who acted as spokesman, "the prisoner speaks Eng lish perfectly." "Ah," said the minis ter, "then the presumption is in his favor!" Half an hour later, thanks to the personal intervention of the Brit ish minister, the Texan was released from the Mexican jail. The Tone Wan Familiar. An interesting anecdote is told of the old tune to which a well known song is now sung. The story runs that when the army of the first Napoleon was In Egypt in 1799 the camp for awhile was near the pyramids. One afternoon about sunset the band was playing, and the natives of the desert had collected and were listening to the music. Noth ing unusual happened until the band struck up a tune which we now hear under the name of "We Won't Go Home Till Morning." Instantly there were the wildest demonstrations of Joy amoug the Bedouins. They embraced each other and shouted and danced In the delirium of their pleasure. The rea son was that they were listening to the favorite and oldest tune of their peo ple. The tune had been taken to Eu rope from Africa in the eleventh cen tury and had lived separately in both countries for over 700 years. What In llfippluesMT Happiness is the greatest paradox in nature. It can grow in any soil, live under any conditions. It defies envi ronment. It comes from within. It is the revelation of the depths of the in ner life as light and heat proclaim the sun from which they radiate. Happi ness consists not of having, but of be ing; not of possessing, but of enjoying. It Is the warm glow of a heart at peace within itself. A mart}, at the stake may have happiness that a king on his throne might envy. Man is the creator of his own happiness. It is the aroma of a life lived In harmony with high Ideals. For what a man has he may be dependent on others; what he is rests with him alone. What he obtains in life Is but acquisition; what he at tains Is growth. Happiness is the soul's Joy In the possession of the intangible. —William George Jordan. Cheerfulness. It is said there is nothing which dif fuses itself more quickly in a family than the coolness, Indifference and dis content which manifest themselves in the countenances of one of Its members. This thought is not absolutely true. There are some things which communi cate themselves with as much rapidity and more force. They are a bright smile, a frank and open manner, a Cheerful face, a happy heart.—Selected.

Tenth St., Harritburg, Pa„ would sleep but two or three hours in the early part of the night, which made it very hard for her parents. Iler mother concluded that the child had stomach trouble, and gave her half of one of Chamberlain's Stomach and Liver Tablets, which quieted her stomach and she slept the whole night through. Two boxes of these Tablets have effected a permanent cure and she is now well and strong. For sale by L. Taggart. Women wish for long life minus old nge. HEAD IT THROUGH. Twould Spoil This Story to Tell It in the Headlines. To use an eighteenth century phrase, this is an "o'er true tale." Having hap pened in a small Virginia town in the winter of 1902, it is a story very much of the present. Up to a short time ago Mrs. John E. Harmon of Melfa Station, Va., had no personal knowledge of the rare curative properties of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. "Last January," she says, "my baby took a dreadful cold and at one time I feared she would have pneumonia, but one of my neighbors told me how this remedy had cured her little boy and I began giving it to my baby at once and it soon cured her. I heartily thank the manufacturersof Chamberlain's Cough Remedy for placing so great a cure within my reach. I cannot recom mend it too highly or say too much in its favor. I hope all who read this will try and be convinced as I was." For sale by L. Taggart. Obscurity lasts much longer than fame. Tragedy Averted. "Just in the nick of time our little boy was saved" writes Mrs. W. Watdins, of Pleasant City, Ohio. "Pneumonia had played sad hovoc with him and a terrible cough set iu besides. Doctors treated him, but he grew worse every day. At length we tried Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption, and our darling was saved. He's now sound, and well."
