Ad journed till Monday. Hoxrsi. The House met at 11 o'clock in continuation of Wednesday's ses sion.

Owing to the early hour of meet ing were was no quorum in cne House, ana that point was raised oy Warner, of Uhio, whereupon Beliora emphatically demanded a call of the House, and served notice upon War ner, that as the fight had begun it would be continued. During the progress of the rell call. which Belford declared would show whether there was a quorum of courageous men or cowards present. many members came in, and at its conclusion there were 222 Represen tatives answering to their names, and further nroceedings under the call were dispensed with.

The Weather For the remaining few days of lovely March cannot be depended upon to pfease all persons. The streets of town will be dusty, the dirt will be made to circulate freely by reason of some more March wind. However, if this dust becomes unbearable the citizens will find three feet of mud just outside the city limits. And the weather for April will not be of such a style as to remedy the dust, or dry up the mud. However, we will say that when it does rain, your roof will leak, if it leaked before, and when it does not rain this leak can be stopped with Mott's Compound Fire and Water-Proof; Miaeral Paint, aad when this is applied will not only stop all leaks, but arrest further decay, and at same time renders the roof fire proof. The dry season to follow this wet spell will certainly cause rapid decay, and the roof will then be in perfect condition to catch fire from sparks, etc. We will protect you at reasonable rates.

Nature, at this Juncture, needs something to assist In throwing off the im purities which have collected by the sluggish circu blood during the cold winter months. Swift s Speclflo Is nature's great helper, as It is a purely vegetable alterative and tonic Rev. L. B. Paine, Macon, Ga., writes: "We have been using Swift's Specific at the orphan's home as a remedy lor blood complaints, and as a general health tonic, and have had remarkable results from Its use on the children and employees of the Institution. It is such an excellent tonic, and keeps the blood so pure, that the system is less liable to disease. It has cured some of our children of Scrofula." W. H. Gilbert, druggist, Albany, Ga., writes: "We are selling large quantities of Swift's Specific for a spring alterative and general health tonic, and with the best results. It Is now largely used as a preven tive and cure for Malaria. There are many remark able evidences of its merit In this section." Our Treatise on Blood and Skin Diseases mailed free to applicants.
