Democrats Aid
Landslide.
Washington, D. aBy n vote of
Jive to one, tho house passed tho
Porter resolution to terminate tho
state of war between tho United States
and the central powers.
As a substitute for the Knox reso
lution, passed by the senate, repeal-,
lug tho declaration of war, It was put
through, a03 to 01, us a republican
mensure, with the loss of only one
rcpubllam vote Kelloy of Michigan.
Forty-nine democrats Joined In tho
landslide.
How long It will bo before pence Is
formally declared remains' to ho seen.
Tho Issue now goes to it conference
committee which will endeavor to
harmonize tho differing resolutions of
the two housos.-tho senate having pro
vided for tho repent of tho declaration
of war, while tho house proposes
niemely to declare the war terminated.
Tho house objected that the sennto
resolution would repudiate tho de
claration of war.
If a deadlock should develop In tho
conference committee tho declaration
of pence would be delayed and it
might become necessary for President
Harding to effect a compromise. The
president hns been In no hurry up to
date, however, to obtain a declaration
of pcac and the house leaders hnvo
furthered his purposes. The senate
leaders have been chnflng nt the delay,
but will now find they can obtain
speedy action only by yielding and ac
cepting the house resolution.

and havo a small child. I havo recommended Vegetablo Compound to a num

In hospitals nro many women whonrothoro for surgical oporations,andthors
is nothing a woman dreads more than tho thought of an operation, and the

Ahnd8, Ea6t Indian Sect, Are Amonfj
the Most Skillful Trackers
in the World.
Tho Ahnds, natives of Jaura, In
dla, are among tho most skilled ani
mal truckers In tho world, according
to II. G. Burton, writing in tho Field.
They track bears, panthers nnd other
Jungle creatures by a mero shadow
of u footprint and also by "marking,"
a system of watching.
When "mnrklng" anlmnls tho na
tives turn out beforo Bunrlso and
watch ttTo animals as they slink
back to their lairs. Then when tho
hunters take a position of vantage
the mnrkcr's aids surround the ani
mal on three sides, and drlvo it out
from cover.
Tho Ahnds often track bears across
solid rock, where tho creatures' claws,
scratching the, surface, lcavo a mark.
The panther's tread Is so soft that
no Impress Is uiiido, save where tho
ground Is soft enough to tako the pug
of tho pussyfoot, and yet they track
these wary animals when they show,
near tho village.
