CONGRESS WILL EKD THIS WEEK-WILL PROBABLY SEE THE WINDUP. THE WORK WILL BE RUSHED Democrats and Progressives Want Quick Action With the Object of Getting Home. Washington. The whole tariff re vision legislation question will be set tled this week, which in all probabili ty will mark the closing of congress. Almost all of the members of both houses are anxious to get home, de spite the vociferations of the revision ists that they willingly would remain in session until autumn if the legisla tion they want could be enacted. All the power of the democratic par ty, and of the effective democratic progressive republican coalition in the senate will be centered on quick ac tion in the trio of pending tariff meas ures. This means, in the belief of leaders of both parties, an adjourn ment possibly by the end of the week, or at any rate, within a few days thereafter. Out of the present tangled situation, with the three tariff bills wool, free list and cotton, varying stages of leg islation, the wool measure will be the first to emerge. A complete agree ment between the two houses has been reached on this bit of legisla tion, which provides for a basic aver age duty of 29 per cent ad valorem on raw wool, with the wool classification provisions identically as framed by Democratic Leader Underwood of the house, making a flat tariff on all wools. It will be rushed past its final stage in the house by adoption of the conference report Monday and then hurried over to the senate for adop tion there, if possible, Tuesday, and then on to the expected presidential veto, which awaits all the tariff revi sion bills. Everything hinges on that veto and the immediately subsequent move in the house. The democratic leaders are sure of the passage of the bill over the president's veto in the house but are doubtful of the outcome in the senate. Passage over a veto requires a two-thirds majority. The free list bill and the cotton bill are still hung up. The conferees on the free list have disagreed to the single house amendment, adding lemons to the free list and to the Kern senate amendment limiting free importation of meat and cereal pro-; ducts to those countries which have reciprocal trade arrangements with the United States. They have agreed on all the other amendments and the conference report will be presented to both houses Monday. There will be a give and take outcome, with a pos sibility of each side receding and con curring with the other's amendments so as to obviate the necessity of send ing the free list bill back to confer ence.

New York. Admiral Togo, hero of the sea, paid a warrior's tribute to Colonel Roosevelt, moving spirit in the peace of Portsmouth. Apparently Roosevelt, the fighter, had appealed to the Japanese admiral rather than Roosevelt, the peacemaker, for when he marched up Sagamore bill to meet the former president, he carried Mr. Roosevelt a two-foot miniature of a suit of armor. This souvenir was done in glistening metal with exquisite workmanship, enclosed in a mahog any box. More Trouble at Des Moines. Des Moines. la.

QUEER DISEASE 6 III UNITED STATES Many Here Afflicted With Odd Ailment, Says Prof. Munyon. GREWSOME CREATURES VERY COMMON, FINDS EXPERT. Many people fa the United States an afflicted with a queer disease, according to a statement yesterday by Professor James M. Munyon. He made the follow ing remarkable and rather grewsozne statement: J "Many persons who come and write to my headquarters at 53d and Jefferson Sts.. Philadelphia. Pa., think they are suffering from a simple stomach trouble, when in reality they are the victims of an entirely different disease that of tape worm. These tape worms are huge internal parasites, which locate in the upper bowel and consume a large per centage of the nutriment in undigested food. They sometimes grow to a length of forty to sixty feet. One may have a tape worm for years and never know the cause of his or her ill health. "Persons who are suffering from one of these creatures become nervous, weak and irritable, and tire at the least ex ertion. The tape worms rob one of am bition and vitality and strength, but they are rarely fatal. "The victim of this disease Is apt to believe that he 1s suffering from chronic stomach trouble, and doctors for years without relief. This is not the fault of the physicians he consults, for there Is no absolute diagnosis that will tell posi tively that one to not a victim of tape worn. "The most common symptom of this trouble to an abnormal appetite. At times the person to ravenously hungry and cannot get enough to eat. At other limes the very sight of food is loathsome. There is a gnawing, faint sensation at the pit of the stomach, and the victim has headaches, flts of dizziness and nau sea. He cannot sleep at night and often thinks he to suffering from nervous pros tration. "I have a treatment which has had wonderful success In eliminating these great creatures from the system. In the course of its regular action In aiding digestion, ana naaing me oiooa. Kianeys and liver of impurities it has proven fatal to these great worms. If one has a tap worm, this treatment will. In nine cases out of ten. stupefy and pass it away, but If not. the treatment will rebuild the run-down person, who Is probably suffer ing from stomach trouble and a general anaemic condition. My doctors report marvelous success here with this treat ment. Fully a dozen persons have passed these worms, but they are naturally reti cent about discussing them, and of course we cannot violate their confidence by giv ing their names to the public."

"To be a good cook means the knowledge of all fruits, herbs, balms and spices; and of all that is healing and sweet in fields and groves, savory in meats; it means carefulness, in ventiveness, watchfulness, willingness and readiness of appliance; it means the economy of your great-grandmothers and the science of modern chem ists; it means much testing and no wasting; it means English thorough- ness, French art and Arabian hospi it means, in flne, that you are ialiiy to be perfectly and always ladies loaf -givers), and you are to see that everybody has something nice to eat."

Starting with Buff Leghorns now is much easier and more satisfactory than it was a few years ago. Now prominent breeders are getting as large a proportion of exhibition speci mens from their matings as are the breeders of any variety. and custom era who are' buying eggs get good value for the money they invest. Oi course, one must be careful to buy from breeders who are producing fine birds, for breeders who are not breeding the quality that is winning at our prominent shows cannot sup ply It to their customers. After get ting the eggs and hatching the chicks be sure to mark then all according to the breeding pen in which the eggs were laid; then when the chicks mature you will know their breeding. When you pick oat those which you are going to keep for your founda tion stock, if you have only one male and one female that suit you. you had better use only those for the first year's breeding. It is not quantity that the beginner wants it is quality. Next season select your best pullet and mate back to the old male and mate the yearling hen and the choicest one of the sea son's, cockrels. These matings are reasonably sure to produce plenty oi quality, if you buy the eggs from a breeder who has line bred his stock properly. FOLDING COOP FOR CHICKENS Ends and Sides Turn Down When Not Being Used Of Great Conve nience in Shipping to Market. Now comes the collapsible chicker. coop, designed by a Wisconsin man. and in view of the present mania for raising chickens it will probably interest a great many people. The sides and ends of the coop are hinged beneath the ends. When the recep Folding Chicken Coop. tacle is extended the sides form z support to the ends, and all are held firmly in the extended position bj clips at the four corners. When thf coop is collapsed, pins lock the fold ing parts and keeps them down. As will be readily understood, a coop oi this kind will be a great convenience to the poultry farmer who ships his chickens to market or to a poultry store. After the live fowls have beer disposed of a dozen of these improved receptacles can be folded up, tied in one bundle and shipped back to the place where they came from at small expense and no trouble. They arc equally handy on the chicken farm. DUMPING NESTS PRE HANDY Bottom Arranged with Hinges So Tha: It Will Drop and Contents Fall to the Floor. A good way to build hens nests is to have the bottom attached with hinges and fastened at the front witfc small hooks and staples. When the nests are to be cleaned the botton: Dumping Hens' Nest. ran be dropped and all the contents will fall out. The nests should be al least twelve inches square, and fo: the large-sized breeds fifteen inches will be better. Turkey Raising.

A well-known clergyman was one day in a barber's shop, when four or five young men walked in whom be knew by their voices, but who did not recognize the man in the chair, with lather all over bis face. They proceeded to spend the time by tell ing stories and using expressions i which, to sav the least, were rather strong. When the barber pulled away the towel the clergyman, cleanly shaved, stood before them. So non plussed were they that no one tried to take the vacant chair, and the barber called several times: "Next gentle man!" " The clergyman smiled somewhat grimly as he said: "It isn't a bit of use, John. There's not a man here who has the effront ery to answer to that name." NEW STRENGTH FOR BAD BACKS. Those who suffer with backache, headache, dizziness and that constant, dull, tired feeling will find comfort in the advice of Mrs. C. S. Tyler. Cando, N.
