The following, from the Topeka Capital, describes the situation at the close of the legislative session exactly. Preserve this for reference during the next campaign, and bear in mind that the record will verify it. "Already the attack on the real believers in direct nominations in the House has begun, these men being denounced for pigheadedness: But you will remember that it was the House that voted for and the Senate which voted against a third conference. The House never took the position of "this bill or nothing." That position was taken by the Senate when it refused to accede to the request of the House for another conference. And on all the reform legislation it was the House which was obliged to yield, except on the primary.

It yielded to the Senate in the pass matter, the two-cent fare matter and the maxinm rate matter -because it could not force the Senate to budge, once it had taken its stand. At last it was the House which balked when they said no third conference on primary legislation. As a coincidence- on the same day this occurred Missouri's Legislature enacted a primary law which ends State conventions. Musical treat at the Christian church tonight.

One cup of flour, one cup of Indian meal, one cup of rolled oats, two-thirds cup of molasses, two and a half cups of cold water, one teaspoon of soda and one teas poon of salt. Steam three hours. A very good way to steam brown bread is to set your brown bread dish in a pail about one third full of boiling water, put cover on pail and set in the oven. This does away with all steam and the bread will be much lighter. OBITUARY.

The common form of dyspepsia or indigestion, which stops the growth, pales the cheeks, weakens the system of so many school dhildren, is often due to improper or too quickly eaten lutcues. While seeing to a correction of the cause, it is also imbortant to cure the disordered conditions of stomach and bowels. This can be done by no medicine so safely and surely as by Dr. Caldwell's (laxative) Syrup Pepsin. Try it.
