Charlotte Observer, Dec. Sd. . ,
The opening; of the Sixtieth
Congress promises to be the
most important feature of the
week. Many other , events of
much interest, however. are
scheduled. ferbaps the one in
which the widest interest, is felt
is a meeting . of the Republican
national committee, which will
be held - at Washington Decern
ber 6tb While the principal
business . will be to decide - upon
a time and place to bold ; the
next national convention of the
party, it is said to be not unlike
lv that the question of a candi
date for president will be dis
cussed.. ' -.
Both houses of Congress will
convene at 12 o'clock Monday
and the session of Congress.
which will be begun at that time.
will continue indefinitely. Lit
tie business will be . transacted
during the first week of fbe ses
sion, and both bouses will ad
journ almost immediately on ae
count of the death, durine-the
Tecess, of members of each body
The President's message will
not be received in either House
until Tuesday. This will con
sume the greater part of the
second day of the session, and
Wednesday and Thursday will
be gh'en tip largely to the intro
duction of bills. v
r a a a
-The House will begin pro
ceedmgs witnout . being organ;
ized and the first real business
will be the election of a Speak
er, to which office Mr, Cannon
has already been renominated
bv the Republicans, ; and the
election of other general officers
of the House, 'Business of the
House will then be largely sus
pended, until committees can be
appointed. Mr. Cannon hopes
to complete this wort before the
Christmas holidays, but will not
yet undertake to say when it
may be done.
SESSION OF SENATE.
The Senate ,is 8 continuing
oodv and will proceed as it tnere
bad been no interim. There
will, however, be a large num
ber of new members ..of that
body, and it will be necessary tq
reorganize the committees in or
der to give the new men places
on them and to nil the vacan-
cies caused by retirement and
death.
.There will be an effort to
bring about final adjournment
some time in May to perm.it
Senators and members to return
to their homes before the nation
al convention, which will prob
ably be held in June.
A demand tnat Congress pro
vide for a more liberal expend
iture of the revenues of the

Dallas, Nov. ' 30. The akies
were dull and leaden op Thanks
giving Day, the wind , whistled
drearily through the leafless
tress. and everything out-of-doors
looked dismal and cheerless, but
in doors by the ruddy cheer of
fixes and in the pleasant family
gatherings there was only good
cheer and brightness. No where
, . . , ...
in iowu, nowever, was mere
more brightness and gladness
shown than could be seen on the
faces of the school children 'as
they assembled about nine o'
clock to set out on their annual
visit to the county home. This
is a time-honored custom of the
children in Dallas and when for
a while, it appeared as if rain
would prevent the cbil ren from
going their disappointment was
great. -
With them they know what
pleasure it gives to the old friends
at the Home to see their bright
sunny faces and to bear the child
ish voices ' ringing through the
long corridors. In a few more
years these children will grow
up, as others have done before
them, more a the pity 1. and will
then begin to excuse their in
difference to giving pleasure to
God's lonely ones by reasoning
that some underserving one may
be benefited, or such scenes have
a saddening influnce. But there
will always be the little children
to take their place . and to give
their presence and love with their
guts tbey carry on these aoh-
days. .-:(
The gifts were simple but there
was an . abundance of iruits.
cakes; and candies for each in
mate and then came the requests
for music. Song after song was
given and many "God bless you"
was heard from the lips of the
old folks. These inmates are well
cared for by Mr. and Mis Clyde
Craig who are most considerate
and kind in their treatment, but
even at the best it is a sad and
lonely life with very few bright
spots, and but little pleasure ta
looaT forward to.

' This Simple Home-made Mix
1 tore of Vegetable Ingredients.
Some remarkable stories are
being told about town and among
tbe country people -coming, in
of this simple home made mix
tere curio g Rheumatisn and Kid
ney trouble. Here is the recipe
and directions for taking: Mix
by shaking well in a bottle one
half ounce Fluid Extract Dan-
deliou. one ounce Compound
Kargun, iluee ouuees Compound
Syrup Sarsaparilla. Take as a
dose one teaspoonful after meals
and at bedtime.
No change need be made in j
your usual diet, but drink plenty
of good water.
This mixture, writes one au
thority in a leading Philadelphia
newspaper, has a peculiar tonic
effect upon the kidneys to sift
and strain from tbe blood tbe
nnc acid and other poisonous
waste matter, overcoming Rheu
matism, r Bladder and Urinary
troubles in a short while.
A New York druggist who
has had hundreds ot calls for
these ingredients since the first
announcement in tbe newspapers
last October stated that the
?eople who once try it "swear by
t," especially those who have
Urinary and Kidney trouble and
suffer with Rheumatism.
The dmggistslin this neigbor-
bood say tbey can supply tbe
ingredients, which are easily
mixed at home. There is said
to be no better blood-cleansing
agent or system tonic known,
and certainly none more harm
less or simple to use.

The county convicts stationed
on the Union road where tbey
