THE BEE: OMAHA, SATURDAY, JANUARY 27, 1917. Nebraska ?ALLS CITY WOMAN TALKS J AT KITE CLUB. SENATE CALLS FOR ' LOBBYISTS' NAMES Resolution Passed in Upper House Over Protest of Moriariy. SATURDAY HALF HOLIDAY (Prom a SUIT Correspondent.) Lincoln, Jan. 26. (Special.) Mem bers of the, senate would like to know who the lobbyists are who come to the legislature to give the members a tew ideas on what real legislation should be. A resolution bv Hammond that the secretary of state be request ed to furnish each member with names of all the lobbyists was adopted with much gusto on a motion of Moriarty to table. i 1 hrec members from the senate and a like number from the house will compose a committee to look into the matter of accepting the good roads appropriation of $1,650,000 which the government desires to do nate to the state of Nebraska, if a resolution sent up by Senator Mc Allister of Antelope gets through at the proper time. The resolution points to the 'fact that it would be foolish to allow the appropriation to lapse and some other state get it. The Melady boxing bill was ad vocated in a resolution sent up this morning. The bill has been introduced in the house and appears to meet with much favor. Albert's Liquor Resolution. Another resolution which brings up tlieliquor question again was read, being sent up by Albert of Platte. It calls for a memorial to congress urg ing that the law be changed so that revenue collectors may mail to the governor each month the names of all parties -holding government liquor licenses. Every day mav not be Sundav hvr and bye, but if a bill introduced by Oberlies of Lancaster becomes a law every Saturday' afternon will be a legal holiday in Omaha and Lincoln. Another bill, by Hammond, would require state conventions to select the presidential delegates of the re spective parties and certify them to the governor, who would appoint the electors of the party winning at the election. He would also have the fun of appointing the messenger who , would carry the tidings to Washing ton at 25 cents per mile. To Increase Commission. Senator Albert wants the legal business of the state expedited and has introduced a bill providing for six instead of the present three court commissioners, to be appointed by the supreme court, and draw a salary of $3,600 a year instead of the present $3,000. The senate, adjourned at noon until Tuesday. Three Damage Suits Will 1 Be Tried at Schuyler Schuyler, Neb., Jan. 26. (Special.) Judge George H.

The machinery of the body needs to be oiled, kept in good condition' just as the automobile or bicycle. Why should the human neglect his own machinery more than that of his horse or his engine? Yet most peo ple do neglect themselves. Their tongue has a dark brown color, skin sallow, breath bad, yet they fail to see that their machinery needs atten tion. Everybody should take a mild laxative at least once a week. A pleasant way to clear the tongue and the highly colored water noticed in the morning is to take a laxative which will'cure the inactive liver and biliousness. A pleasant vegetable pill is made up of May-apple, leaves of aloe, and jalap, made into a tiny pellet and coated wtih sugar. First put up by Dr. Pierce nearly 50 years ago. Drug gists sell these vegetable pellets in vialssimply ask for Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. ' If backache, scalding urine or fre quent urination bother or distress you. or if uric acid in the blood has caused rheumatism, gout or sciatica, if you suspect that you have kidney or blad der trouble, write Dr. Pierce, at In valids' Hotel, Buffalo, N. Y., send a sample of urine, and describe symp toms. A physician and chemist will examine it without charge and you will be under no obligation whatever. Dr. Pierce's Anuric tablets cannot fail to help you, because, their action flushes the kidneys of impurities and puts strength into them. Obtain a 50-cent box of Anuric (double strength) today from your druggist in town. From personal ob servation in large hospital practice, Anuric will give you speedy relief. Advertisement.
