A prompt use of this medicine has often averted long aud perhaps fa- tal bilious fevers. No medicine will act more surely in cotnteracting and freeing the system from the malarial poison.

Later Payne ordered that MeMillin’s reply be struck out of the record, but that doesn't affect its truthfulness, One of the most cowardly things done by the Republican leaders of the House during this session of Congress was the holding back of the report of the House Library Committee on the resolution, adopted by the Senate, for- mally accepting the Father Marquette statue from the state of Wisconsin, The Republican leaders knew that a majority of the Republican members of the House are under the domina- tion of the A.
