tog Against Cnbn.
WAsiiinotox, April 0. In tho House
to-dny Mr. Adams of Pennsylvania, of
tho committco on foreign affairs,
was the first speaker on Cuban resolu
tions. He said that he should have
refrained from addressing tho Houso
further on this question but for tho
"extraordinary performance of tho
gentleman from Mnine (Mr. lloutclle)
yesterday." Referring to tho charge
that tho people wore not behind the
effort of Congress to grant proper rec
ognition to Cubi, he asserted that
Congress had seldom beforo recoived
so ninny petitions on any subject as
this. He contended that a handful of
Senators had taken advantugo of the
rules of tho Senato to prevent tho
adoption of tho conference report by
filibustering. The Cubans had an or
ganized form of government and wero
in every way ontitled to recognition.
Mr. Knox of Massachusetts was rec
ognized to rend a letter from his
colleague, Mr. Drapor, a member of
tno lorcigu nliair.s committee, oppos
ing the adoption of tho conference
roporU lie said that ho differed from
Mr. Drapor and made a plea for

ures should be taken to put an end to
tho barbarous warfare pud that for
this country to fail to do this would
be to incur tho loss of self-respect ns
well as to deserve tho contempt of all
foreign nations.
Tho Houso then decided to hold a
night session for dobato on the Cuban
resolutions and to voto Monday nfter
the reading of the journal.

INSOMNIA.
WHAT IT MEANS TO LOSE THE
POWER TO SLEEP.
A Ynnnjf llnltlmoro Womiu Whoso Nerves
l'rctrnted Her From Keating.
From the Herald, Baltimore, Md.
Mrs. Jessie Shea is a young married
woman whose tidy home Is at 855 West
TexInRton Street, Baltimore. For many
months Mrs. Shea wns a terrible suf
ferer from a nervous nftectlon which
resulted in general debility and super
induced that ofttlmep Incurable mal
ady, Insomnia. A Herald reporter
called at her residence recently and
wns shown Into tha i.eatly furnished
parlor and told that Mrs. Shea
would be down Jn a few min
utes. Soon a light step waa heard
tripping down thf stairway nnd
Mrs. Shea, radiant with health and the
vigor of young womnnhood, entered
the room. When asked If she had used
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, with a smile
which betokens the utmost satisfac
tion, the -young lady replied "Yea, 1
have used them, nnd hnd I not heard of
them I doubt If I would have been here
to answer your call."
Continuing, sho satd: "About two
months ago I had nn attack of what
the doctors termed nervous prostration.
My appetite left mo entirely and what
little sleep I got, and It was very lit
tle, I assure you, wns not by any
means refreshing. On the contrary,
when I awoke from a nap I had such
a tired and exhausted feeling that I
was loth to try to .ret to sleep again. I
continued to lose flesh day after day
until I wns almost a shadow compared
with my former self.
"Aa noon bb I began to take the Pink
PHIs I commenced to Improve. I am
no longer troubled with nervousness.
I have a good appetite, experience none
of the feelings Incident to Indigestion,
nnd I sleep ns sound as a healthy child.
The pills are certainly all they are rep
resented to be, and, as I believe I owe
my life to the fact of having used
them, I shall always cheerfully recom
mend them to my friends and other
persons whom I find to be suffering
from similar maladies.
Dr. Williams' Pink Pllln contain, In
a condensed form, all the elements nec
essary to give new life and richness to
the blood and restore shattered nerves.
Pink Pills are sold In boxes at GO cents
a box, or six boxes for J2.C0, nnd may
be had of all drugglBts, or direct by
mall from Dr. Williams' Med. Co.,
Schenectady, N. Y.
HINTS OF ALU SOHTS.
A dish of water placed In a hot oven
where pies, calces, or pudding3 are be
ing baked will prevent them from
scorching.
Old leather can be mado to look like
now by applying a coat of French pol
ish with a camel's hair brush.
The skin of fruit should never be eat
en, not because they are not palatable
or digestible or are unhcnlthtul in
themselves, but on account of tho dan
ger arising from microbes, which ma
have penetrated Into tho covering of tho
fruit.
People who are susceptlblo to tho
cold should mako a point of wearing
looso clothing In cold weather.
If you have butter that is not entire
ly sweet put it In a porcelain dish with
a little salt and a tiny pleco of sodn,
place over tho fire and bring to a boll.
Turn it into a Btone Jar and set it in
a cool place. The butter will be found
perfectly sweet and not too salt for
cooking. Tho Impurities will settle to
the bottom of tho Jar.
A cement for mending broken glasB
or china Is made by dissolving half an
ounce of Gum arable in a wineglassful
of boiling water and adding enough
plaster of Paris to mako a thick paste.
Apply it with a brush to tho edecs ot
tho broken parts. Hold the pieces
carefully togother until tho ccmont haB
hardened sufficiently for them to ad
here. If. the article to be mended is
broken In several pieces, do not at
tempt to cement a second piece before
the first has thoroughly hardened.
A tested cough mixture reclpo comes
from an English lady. It is palatable
and very effectual. Boll three large
lemons in water seven minutes, drain
off the wator and slice tho lemons as
thin ao possible. Put them In an earth
en bowl with one pound of the best
brown sugar and stand tho bowl on
tho stovo until the mixture Is at boil
ing point. Then draw to tho back of
tho stove nnd let tho mixture simmer
three hours. Remove from the fire, and
when It has stood half an hour add
Bmall tablespoonful of oil of sweet al
monds. It is to bo used warm. Stir
and take In teaspoonful doses cs long
as needed.
To make a wax for polishing hard
wood floors cut one pound of beeswax
Into small piocoo, put them in a dish
and place It over tho flro In a pan of
hot water. Allow tho wax to melt and
then stir In three pints of turpentine.
When the Ingredients have thorough
ly blended, place somo of tho wax on
a woolen cloth and rub It on tho floor,
treating ono board at a tlmo and rub
bing lengthwise. Then cover a heavy
brush with flannel nnd with It rub the
floor until It Is perfectly smooth. It
Is usually tho case that somo parts of
tho floor aro subject to more wear than
others. When tho polish hns worn
off In theso spots warm tho wax and
apply to tho worn places and then
polish.
Whonever God Is loved, tho man who
loves him Is blessed, no matter whether
he feels that way or not.
The more zcalouo we aro of good
works, tho more wo are in danger of
wrongly Judging other people.
SPEAKING OF PEOPLE.
Tho quoen of Roumanla fairly revels
In literature.
I Tho duko of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha
' plays the fiddle with fervor and skill.
1 King Humbert of Italy la a strong
man, but his only son and heir is slight
aud delicate.
Crown Prlnco William of Germany,
now 13 yonrs old, Is not half so bright
nnd strong as his youngor brother.
Spoakor Rood donlas tho report that
he studied for the mlniitry when a
young man. but admits that h!g folks
' wanted him to do ao.
