The Evolution of Household Remedies. The modern patent medicine busi ness is the natural outgrowth of the old-time household remedies. In the early history of this country, EVEEY PA WILY TT AB ITS HOME MADE MEDICINES. Herb teas, bitters, laxatives and tonics, were to bo found in almost every house, compound ed by the housewife, sometimes assisted by the apothecary or the mmily doctor. Such remedies as piora, which was aloes and quassia, dissolved in apple brandy. Sometimes a hop tonic, made of whiskey, hops and bitter barks. ? score or more of popular, home-made remedies were thus compounded, the formulae for which were pasneA along from house to house, sometimes written, C? me times verbally communicated. Tho patent medicine business is a natural outgrowth from this whole some, old-time custom. In the begin ning, some enterprising doctor, im pressed by the usefulness of one of these home-made remedies, would take it np, improve it in many ways, manu facture it on a large scale, advertise it mainly through almanacs for the home, and thus it would become used over a large area. LATTESLY THE HOUSE HOLD REMEDY BUSINESS TOOK A HOBE EXACT AND SCIENTIFIC rom Paruna was originally one of these old-time remedies. It was used by the Mennonites, of Pennsylvania, before it was offered to the public for sale. Dr. Hartman, THE ORIGINAL COM POUNDER OF BERTINA, is of Men nonite origin, First, he prescribed it for his neighbors and his patients. The sale of it increased, and at last he established a manufactory and fur nished it to the general drug trade, Feruna is useful in a great many climatic ailments, such as coughs, colds, sore throat, bronchitis, and catarrhaJ diseases generally. THOUSANDS 0? FAMILIES HAVE LEARNED TEE USE OF PERUNA and its value in the treatment of these ailments. Thej nave learned to trust and believe ix Dr. Hartman's judgment, and to rel] on his remedy, Paruna. Peruna is sold by your local drug gist. Buy a bottle to-day. Cheshire Cheese for Paris.

INTERNATIONAL FASHION CO., Vlakersand Creators cf Fashion, ?&*2R Washington Place, Dipt K, New York City A SPECIAL MESSAGE Thc President Advises Con gress to Pass Laws; HE MAKES TIMELY SUGGESTIONS In His Special Message to Congress, the President Urges Irnmediate Ac tion on Certain Important Matters' Before Adjournment-Child Labor Should Bs Prohibited in All Sec tions. "Washington, Special.-A special message from the President was read in both houses of Congress soon af ter corening Wednesday and in both it was closely followed. In the House the President's declaration that the time had come for a revision of the tarin* elicited handclapping on the part of Democratic members. Demo cratic approval also was given by way of pounding on desks to the suggestion that Congress could with advantage forthwith remove the tar iff on wood pulp, with a correspond ing reduoiion upon paper from wood pulp. . M In the Senate the message was re ceived without comment of any kind. In substance the recommendations of the President are as follows: I call 3'our attention to certain measures as to which I think there should be action by the Congress be fore the close of the present session. There is ample- time for their consid eration. Child labor should be prohibited throughout the nation. At least a model child-labor hill should be passed for the District of Columbia. It is unfortunate that in the one place solely dependent upon Congress for its legislation there should be no law whatever to protect children by forbidding or regulating their labor. I renew my recommendation for the immediate re-enactment of an em ployers' liability law, drawn to con form to the recent decision of the Supreme Court. Within the limits indicated by the -court, the law should be made thorough and com prehensive, and the protection it af fords should embrace every class of employe to which the power of the Congress can extend. I also urge that action be taken along the lino of the recommenda tions I have aireadv made concern ing injunctions in labor disputes.* No temporary' restraining order should be issued by any court without notice and the petition for a permanent in junction upon which such temporary restraining order has been issued should be heard by the court issu ing the same within a reasonable tirue-say, not to exceed a veek or thereabouts from the date when the order was issued. It is urged that the Interstate Com merce Law and the law of receiver ships should both be amended; as also should the anti-trust law, to the end that these laws should conform to the needs of trade and that no damage may result tb legitimate business interests. Concerning the lejntimate business combinations the following expres sion is used : In the modern industrial world combinations are" absolutely neces sary; they are necessaiy among bus iness men, they are necessary among laboring men, they are becoming more and more necessary among far mers. Some of these combinations are among the most powerful of all instruments for wrong-doing. Others offer the only effective way of meet ing actual business needs. On the subject of labor unions and strikes the president says. . * * But strikes themselves are. and should be recognized to be entirely legal. Combinations of workingmen have a peculiar reason for the existence. The very wealthy individual employer, and still more the very wealthy corporation, stand at an enormous advantage when com pared to the individual workingman; and while there are many cases where it may not be necessary for laborers to form a union, in many other cases it is indispensable, for otherwise the thousands of small units, the thous ands of individual workingmen, will be left helpless in their dealings with the one big unit, the big individual or corporate employer. The right of employers to combine and conrtact with one another and with their employes should be ex plicitly recognized; and so should tho right of the employes to combine and to contract with one another and wiih the employers and to seek peaceably to persuade others to acept their views, and to strike off for the pur pose of peaceably obtaining from em ployers satisfactory terms for their labor. Nothing should be done tc legalize either a blacklist or a boy . cott that would be ilegal at com mon law; this being the type of boy colt defined and condemned by the anthricitc strike commission. The tariff may need revision at some future time. The exception is made that thc duty on wood pulp used in thc manufacture of paper might be removed at once. Ample provision should be made for a permanent waterways commis sion, with whatever power is requir ed to make it effective. Numerous bills granting water power rights on navigable streams have been introduced. None of them give thc government the right to make a reasonable charge for the valuable privileges so grantel, in spite of the fact that these water pawer privileges are equivalent to many thousands of acres of the best coal lands for their production of power. Nor is any definite time lim it set, as should always bo done in such t'ases. I shall be obliged here after, in accordance with the policy stated in a recent message, to veto any water-power bill which docs not provide for a time limit and for the right of the president or of the sec retary concerned to fix and collect such a charge as he may find to be inst and reasonable in each case.

MUCH CENTERED Wisconsin Senator Concludes Three Days' Speech Showing Up the Ini quities of Our Financial System. Washington, Special.-Upon the conclusion of Senator LaFollette's speech on the Aldrich currency bill tn the Senate a plan was decided up on by which Senator Aldrich will tnmove to take up the bill and con tinue its consideration until it has been disposed of. Mr. Aldrich also asked for unani mous consent to take up the bill at once and to dispose of it before ad journment Thursday, but to that proposition Senator LaFolIlette ob jected on the ground that he feared debate would be curtailed by such a procedure. The colloquy which resulted in thia announcement followed the conclu sion of the third and last installment of Senator LaFollette's speech in opposition to Hie Aldrich bill. He spoke for two hours. Resuming his speech Mr. LaFollette declared that his statement that the industries of this country were controlled by less than one hundred men had been at tacked as sensational. Declaring that such was not the case he said that he had been too conservative and that in fact a much smaller num ber of men dominate the industries. "Along with this enormous in crease in trust power has gone a steady process of centralization in thc control of that power. Until now the entire situation is dominated by the Standard Oil-Morgan combina tion," he declared. "The old fights between these two great powers have been laid aside. Mr. Morgan's pic ture adorns the wall of the inner room of the Rockefellers at No. "26 Broadway. In combination today they are working together to gateher in the smaller powers. Mr. Hill has been taught that he must not oppose the big ones. Standard Oil got in nu the Great Northern ore deal. The Gould interest are bein? swallowed up by the combine. Morse and Heinze w?re neatly pocketed during the recent panic. Thc smaller trust wa,-! given a drubbing and started in the same direction. Vanderbilt? can no longer retain their important, con trol and themselves see the handwrit ing on the wall." Growth of Trusts. The Senator quoted John Moody to show an enormous growth in trust consolidation and capitalization in four years. In 1004 Mr. Moody placed" the capitalization of the in dustrial franchises and railroad trusts at over $20,000f000,000. That amount had increased more than $11,000,000,000 or more than 55 pei cent. The $31.000,000,000, he said, did not represent the financial com binations, banks, trust and insurance companies. Mr. LaFollette read several lists ol eminent financiers to whom he ac corded various degrees of power in the control of industries. He in cluded Senator Depew, of New York, as among those who exercised large power and held many directorships in the form of delegated power exer cised by them in a mere representa tive capacity. Mr. Depew was in his seat and general laughter followed. Mr. LaFollette named as next af ter Morgan and thc Rockefellers s group of fourteen men who he sai? were "big operators and men ot large power and interests in theil own rights." These men. he said find their best interests "in workins in harmony with Morgan and Stand ard Oil." No combination which they could form among themselves ot others could cope with that power he declared. In this list of fourteen he placed the following men: W. K Vanderbilt. August Belmont, Frede rick Wyerhauser, Henry C. Frick, J Ogden Armour, George J. Gould. Ja rob Schiff. E. H. Harriman. Thomas F. Ryan, Louis S. Swift, John Jacol Astor, James Speyer, James J. Hill and W. H. Moore. The Lesser Stars. A second class of men in the list were the "stars of lesser magni tude" but men cf wealth and powci who work in with the combine and a few of the higher rank of attorneys and bank presidents of the system Of thc third group including the balance of the lists Senator LaFol lette said: "While some of them ex ercised large power and held manj directorships, it was a delegated pow er exorcised by them in a mere rep resentative capacity." Mv. LaFollette concluded hi: speech with a strong r.ppeai to the "progressive men" in thc Senate tc stand together and beat the bill. He spoke of the activities of the president and Mr. Bryan in com batting with wrong doing among high financiers . "Whatever difference there muy bo in party policy or personality be tween the President and Mr. Bryan they are striving, each in his own way, for certain fundamental truths Whatever mistakes Mr. Bryan maj have made in policy, whatever mis takes the President may have made in compromising legislation, they are believed in by the people because they aro fighting to preserve the principio that the nation should be governed by the people."

Anything in the nature of a chem ical experiment ls always interesting and usually educative. Here is a simple experiment which any child can perform and which is Instructivo In a very practical way: Get a bit of White Lead about the size of a pea, a piece of charcoal, a common candle in a candlestick, and a blow-pipe. Scoop out a little hollow in the char coal to hold the White Lead, then light the candle, take the charcoal and lead in one hand and the blow pipe in the other, with the large end of the blow-pipo between the lips; blow the flame of the candle steadily against the bit of White Lead on the charcoal and If the White Lead is pure it will presently resolve itself into little shining globules of metallic lead, under the intense heat of the blow-pipe; leaving no residue. If, however, the White Lead is adulterated in thc slightest degree, it will not wholly change into lead. So, it will be seen, that this experi ment is not only an entertaining chemical demonstration, but also of practical use in the home. White Lead is the most Important ingre dient of paint, lt should be benight pure and unadulterated abd mixed with pure linseed oil. That is the best paint.

My wife has suffered a lone time with neuralgia, and I have tried everything I knew or heard about, and could not get anything that would cure her, and thc doctors had given her up; they could not do any more for her. About three weeks she had not been able to do her own work and had to have her head tied up, and her neck was so bad that she could not turn her head with out turning her whole body. When your agent came alcng I got three sample bottles of Minard's Liniment. She used one, and in twenty-five minutes she was able to go all around the house without her head being bandaged, and could do her own work and has ever since. Therefore I can truly say that Minard's Liniment is a sure cure for neuralgia, and that it will do just as it is recommendtd to do, and as long as God spares me, I shall never be without it. Yours respectfully, J. B. PH AIR 4 Babcock St., Gouverneur, N. Y.. Jan. 15, 1907. A special bottle sent free on request. Minard's Liniment Mfg. Co., ?oath Framinghara, Mass. Plain Talks on Fertilizers Improving and Increasing Tobacco Crops No soil is rich enough in all the foods the tobacco plant needs to produce it at its best. Many tobacco soils, how ever, contain natural ele ments, rich in certain valu able plant foods, but lack ing in others. And just as a dead or dying soil must be fed with a complete plant food, so these partially fed soils need specially prepared food to supply what they lack, and balance the unequal fertilization supplied by nature. When these special nourishing clements are added to the soil, crops multiply enor mously; quality improves, and profits are doubled and trebled. To bacco is seldom planted nowa days without the use of some fertilizer ; but the great point to remember is to have " the right fertilizer in the suffi cient qtiaiititics, otherwise the results will not be satis factory. Over one million tons of Virginia-Caro lina Fertilizers were sold last year, a sure proof of their great popularity and value.
