WASHINGTON, Jan. 29 The house to day passed the senate bill increasing the board of customs appraisers In New Tork from ten to twelve, and also passed the senate bill conveying a strip of ground In St. Augustine, Fla., for school pur poses. The agricultural appropriation bill oc cupied most of the day, and as usual, when the amendment striking out the free distribution of seeds was .reached, the mem bers from the farming districts outvoted those from the cities, reversed a ruling of the chair by a vote of 136 to 86 and re stored the paragraph as has been the law for years. The amendment appropriates $238,000 for the free distribution of ordinary seeds. ! Representative Lacey of Iowa offered an amendment authorizing the secretary of agriculture to sell marketable and ripened timber of forest reserves to persons not belonging to any organization to control lumber prices. Mr. Lacey said the result or the creation of great timber reserves has been to Increse the price of lumber and he urged that the government should offer lumber for sale at times when It will tend to force down prices which have been Inflated by the "lumber trust." He said he believed It was time for the government to play Its strength against lumber mo nopoly. The recommendations of the committee on agriculture to increase the salaries of Chief Forester Plnchot and the chief of the bureau of chemistry. Dr. H. W.

An Important amendment was adopted that no part of the money appropriated for enforcement of the national pure food law should be paid to any state, city or dis trict official, the amendment being based on the theory that the states should exe cute their own puro food laws. Representative Mondell of Wyoming, in discussing the, forest reserve policy, said no one could deny that It was a policy of paternalism and centralization "and a policy which should not be extended In this nation further than Is absolutely necessary. There must and there will be the hardship and Irritation Incident to paternalism," he said. We cannot get away from them, and we of the west object to having the re serves used as a means for the Increase of the cost of the products of the reserves to the people of that region. I do not intend to criticise generally the forest serv ice. I have the highest regard ' for the gentlemen at the head of that service. believe that In the main they are ad ministering these reserves In a fair and reasonable way, but' it all Illustrates the tendency of this sort of thing, the Inevitable effect of bureaucratic government." ltfr Criticises Cannon. Representative Lever of South Carolina stirred up a hornet's nest when he offered an amendment appropriating $3,000,000 for the purchase of the Appalachian and White Mountain forest reserves. He said twelve states were interested In the movement and many governors had personally solic ited the speaker of the house to permit the -bill to come before the body on Its merits, but through mysterious Influences he said, the speaker was holding the bill HACK LOOKS LIKE HE FEELS UOOD Brother of Rnaalan Lion Shows Him self In Fine Fettle.

Consumption Is Not Hereditary 1 Common Error Refuted The fact that consumption Is frequently seen to run In families gives rise to the general idea that it Is hereditary, but this Is erroneous. Weak lungs can be hereditary snd where they exist consumption Is likely to follow. Consumption Is produoed by a germ which all persons frequently Inhale, especially In cities where dust Is flying at all times. It Is In weak lungs that the germ finds a lodging place, soon multiplies and starts Its work of destroying the mu cous membrane. A bad cold or cough cre ates an inflamed condition of these mem branes of the pulmanary prguns an af fords the germ an opnortunlt of taking hold; whereas the healthy lung will quick ly throw H off. A prominent physician from the Philadelphia Clinic, who con ducted the 'successful experiments with pine for treating pulmonary trouolos and who for several years maintained a camp In the heart of the big pine forests of Maine, says that for stimulating the growth and developing the tesplratory organs and bronchial tubes there Is no equal to. the. oil obtained from the pines of the East. He was the first to prepare a truly soluble oil of the pine and he claims by Its use all the advantages rf a pine forest camp can be had at home If the patient will adhere to the treat ment and take plenty of out-door exer cise, meanwhile cultivating the hahit a-f deep, full breathing. The form of plnn that he uses Is known to ths medical pro. fesslon as "Concentrated" oil of pine and is to be found at every good prescription druggist. Care should be taken to get the real article, which conies put up for medi cal use only In one way and that la In half ounce bottles enclosed In small round srrewtop-csses which are Intended to pro tect the fintd from changes of atmosphere. The original formula used la as follows; Two ounces of glycerine, V ounce Con centrated oil of pine snd a half pint of first class whiskey. It should be thor oughly shaken and used every four hours In tsbleanoon doses."
