GRANDMOTHER, THE PIONEER PHYSICIAN
In the good old pioneer days of this
country,' when drugstores were few,
grandmother’s root and herb remedies
were what were always depended upon
to bring relief for family ailments, and
some of grandmother’s root and herb
remedies are now found upon the
shelves of the modern drugstore, and
are among the best and most widely
used prepared medicines.
Such is Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vege-
table Compound, a botanic remedy,
originally prepared by Lydia E. Pink-
ham, of Lynn, Mass., over forty years
ago, and which has brought health and
happiness to more women in America
than any other medicine.

The pancakes were made by Mrs.

Prove What Swamp-Root Will Do For You
A medicinal preparation like Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, that- has real cura-
tive value, almost sells itself. Like an endless chain system, the remedy is
recommended by those who have been benefited to those who are in need of it.
Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is at physician’s, prescription. It has been tested
for years and has brought results tb countless numbers who have suffered.
The success of Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Rodt is due to the fact that it fulfills
almost every wish in overcoming kidney, liver and bladder diseases, corrects
urinary troubles and neutralizes the uric acid which causes rheumatism.
. Send ten cents to-Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y., for a sample size
bottle. It will convince anyone. You will also receive a booklet of valuable
information, telling about the kidneys and- bladder. .When writing, be sure and

UNION DEPOTS.
Senator Lattimore has- introduced a
bill in the senate giving additional
powers to the railroad commission to
require railroads to construct union
passenger depots. While such author-
ity is now conferred on the commis-
sion, Senator Lattimore says, the com-
mission has no power to apportion
the cost between or among the various
railroads for the construction of such
depots. He wants the commission to
apportion the cost instead of leaving
this task to juries, which has resulted
in endless litigation in the Hillsboro
depot, case.
Two'bills were introduced by Senator
Bee, one of which provides that county
commissioners shall be debarred from
allowing compensation for ex-officio
services to county officials and dis-
trict attorneys in districts composed of
one county when the compensation and
excess fees that they are now allowed
to retain shall have reached the maxi-
mum; the other bill provides for the
establishment of experimental apiaries
under the direction of the Texas Agri-
cultural and Mechanical college; the
sum of $6,000 is appropriated for carry-
Jug this proposed act into effect.
Senator Floyd has introduced a bill
in the Renate providing for the estab-
lishment of an East Texas normal
school, and the location of the school
is left to a committee composed of
the governor, the state superintendent
of public instruction and attorney gen-
eral. The school is to be known as the

Special to The Tribune.
London, Jan. 30.—Three personal
views appear in recent papers which
yay be taken as roughly representative
of the main currents of British opinion
on the developments of the last week.
. In the Observer, J. L. Garvin strikes
a note that excessive optimism is dan-
gerous. He remarks:
“It is no paradox, but plain certainty,
to say that we shall insure the speed-
iest as well as the biggest success by
deliberately reckoning with the possi-
bility of prolonged operations. If Ger-
many gets over the economic pinch be-
tween spring and summer, the final
phase may well be a fight to the
death, prolonged six months beyond
the best present estimate of probabili-
ties.”
This, it may be said, reflects gen-
eral opinion here. There is no belief
in the highest quarters in England
My customers are so well pleased
with the benefits derived through the
use of Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root that
I am satisfied that it must possess ex-
cellent curative value in kidney,, liver

been handling the medicine for the
past fifteen years or more.

ferred to the senate committee on
privileges and elections, by Senator
.King', who was at the time presiding
for the lieutenant governor. That this
bill will have opposition on the floor
of the senate is practically certain.
PUBLIC UTILITIES.
There will be no postponement of
the hearing before senate committee
on commerce and manufacture on the
Lattimore public utilities bill, which is
scheduled to be held this afternoon, de-
spite requests from various sections of
the state by city officials who desire
to be heard on this measure. Senator
Lattimore said, however, that in the
event that city official# desire to be
heard.at a later date, an opportunity
may be given, but the hearing sched-
uled for this afternoon will be held.
Among the requests that consideration
of the bill be deferred was one from
Mayor Henry D. Lindsley of Dallas,
New York, Jan. 30.—The Rev. Ste-
ven Merritt, Methodist clergyman and
undertaker, who died at his home
here yesterday, officiated or assisted
at the funerals of Daniel Webster,
President Grant and Commander Booth,
leader of the Salvation Army, and
many other prominent Americans.
Mr. Merritt never accepted compen-
for the rebuilding of the chool of
mines at El. Paso. This latter bill
carries with 'it an appropriation of
$100,000.
POOL HALL BILL.
The bill providing for the licensing
and bonding of pool halls in the state
was seriously objected to by a’number
of members. It prohibits minors from
entering pool halls; prohibits gamb-
ling in them and requires them to be
closed every night at 10:30 o’clock and
from 10:30 o’clock Saturday night un-
til 6 o’clock Monday morning. In sup-
port of the measure, Judge N. B. Wil-
liams of Waco, declared: “We want
a gentlemanly game, located in a re-
spectable place, and played by grown
men. /‘The local option in the present
pool room law was eliminated from
tne new bill, because the Supreme
court has declared it unconstitutional.
Another .bill passed to engrossment
was the Smith-measre extending: the"
closed season for .the. protection . of
antelope in Texas, ten years. The
Carlock bill providing for an inter-
changeable jury system was passed to
engrossment. This act makes it pos-
siblefor jurors to serve in any of the
district courts of a county during the
week for which they are summoned
and the author of the measure esti-
mates that it will result in a saving
of at least one-third of the present
expense for jury service.
Other bills passed to engrossment
were: Relating to the election of coun-
ty school trustees; the return of pen-
sion warrants issued to a pensioner
who has just died and the issuance,
instead- of a mortuary warrant; re-
lating-to legal publications to do away
with.' the posting of notices at court-
Rose Stahl.
The convincing interpretation of al
keen, hustling traveling saleswoman
given by Rose Stahl in “Our Mrs. Mc-
Chesney,” to be seen at the Grand
opera house Wednesday, Jan. 31st, is
said to clearly illustrate a type of
business woman, one frequently meets
in everyday life. The play is a drama-
tization of Edpa Ferber’s delightful
and much read Emma McChesney
stories. Miss Ferber knows thoroughly,
.the "types" of which she writes and
her Emma McChesney, saleswoman for
the Featherloom Petticoat, is "one of
her most interesting characters. In the
hands of Miss Stahl, Emma McChesney
really lives.
Miss Stahl is under the management
this season of Charles Frohman and is
surrounded by a company of capable
people, including Edward Fielding, W.
H. St. James, A. Romaine Collander,
Phillips Tead,, George Harcourt, Beth
Harwood, Marguerite Tebeau, Jane
Komray, Lavina Shannon, Dorothy Al-
len, Dorothy Walters, Ida Davis, May

The house passed finally the bill deed-
ing to Austin a strip of land for a
park and the constitutional amendment
requiring voters to be full-fledged citi-
zens of the United States before exer-
cising the right of franchise is pending
business for today.
PIPE LINE MEASURE.
Without a dissenting vote the senate
has passed finally the bill by Senator
McNealus declaring pipe lines common
carriers and placing them under the
control and jurisdiction of the rail-
road commission. The bill gives the
commission the right to regulate the
rates, and charges to be made by pipe
lines in Texas, also authorizes pipe
line companies to build, maintain and
operate telephone and telegraph lines
upon their right of way in connection
with their business. While most of
the afternoon session was devoted to
the consideration of this measure, no-
material amendments were adopted, ex-
cept one which provides that all laws
in" conflict with this proposed law,
are. not repealed but cumulative. The
Texas company bill is scheduled for
consideration. today- in the senate.
Senator King of Nacogdoches went
on record as being strictly opposed to
providing any more , jobs or positions
for stenographers or other help in the
senate, when a resolution offered by
Senator Robbins and signed by 17
other senators, came up for considera-
tion. This resolution provided for the
employment of a young lady, who had
her hand injured in a laundry machine
at the State Orphans’ home at Corsi-
cana, to assist in the mailing room.
Senator King said, he did not. want to
see the people’s money paid out for
any additional help as none were
needed. His motion to refer the reso-
lution to the committee on rules was
voted down by a vote of 20. to 5 and
the resolution adopted. -
WOMAN SUFFRAGE.
The woman's suffrage bill introduced
in the senate by Senator Lattimore,
which is enacted into law, would per-
mit women to vote in all primary elec-
tions held in Texas, will not apparent-
ly have easy sailing. After Senator
Lattimore had obtained a favorable
committee report on the bill which had
been referred to seriate committee on
commerce and manufacture, objection
arose on the floor of the senate, Sena-
tor Hudspeth claiming that the bill had
not been referred to its poper com-
mittee and insisted that this be 'done.
Senator Hall, accordingly moved that
the bill be recommitted, which motion

By Associated Press.
■ Austin, Jan. 30.—Senator Hudspeth
today introduced a bill in the senate
providing for the establishment of
a state normal in El Paso county to
be known as the “Jim Hogg” state,
normal. The bill carries an appropria- '
tion of $200,000 and provides for the
appointment of a committee of three
by the governor to make the, selec-
tion of a site, the people of the city
and county of El Paso donating for
that purpose twenty acres of ground.
A resolution by Senator Smith was
adopted that the reception room of the
senate be not used in the future for
committee meetings. A petition was
sent up by Senato/ Johnston of Har-
ris, . from doctors of Harris coynty,
protesting against the passage of the
optometry bill. ' /

four millions of Socialists who voted
against the kaiser are not slow to
realize that their worst anticipations;
of the abyss to which these forces;
were driving Germany have been real-
ized far beyond their blackest prophe-
cies.
“I have no doubt that the working
■people, underpaid, underfed, .are res-
tive under it all, and I have, finally,
no doubt that every one in Germany,
from the kaiser downward, realizes
that the longer the war goes on the.
worse it is for Germany, both in the
presen and in the future.”
In the course of his article Mr.
O’Connor, referring to the American
reception of the allied note, says:
“Never since the war began have
we had a better press in America."’

from the rap of the gavel and the big-
gest grist of the session for one after-
noon was turned out. Once the pro-
ceedings were rushed with a sort of
a reckless haste and one measure was
passed by a vote of 2 to 0, with a
membership of about 125 present. It
is true bills were only up for engross-
ment and no objection had been raised
to the particular measure in ques-
tion.
Included in the measures was the
Bryant bill providing for an appropri-
tion to build a West Texas A. and M.
college, and theDudley bill' providing

subjects,, bred up for nearly 50 years
in all the fatal delusions of an over-
weening conceit. If our chief enemies
had the means, the food, and the man
power, and if they could escape ruin
in the field this year, they would
carry the struggle far into 1918, and,
battle to the last gasp rather than
come to surrender at discretion as the
Aend of it: all.”
After discussing the allies’, reply to
’President Wilson in terms of praise,
Mr. Garvin suggests that only, by a
mUitary victory can Germany be per-
' suaded to a change of heart.
“In all likelihood,” he says, “we
shall have to concentrate once more
on the military narrative before many
weeks have passed. For the present
we have to put every thought of early
peace utterly behind us and prepare
for a supreme effort of arms.”
Lord Sydenham, writing in the Sun-
■ day Times, does not believe that Ger-
many will take a position to bring
peace any nearer.
“The Prussian dynasty and military
caste, which it created,” lie com-
ments, “will not accept the • allied

Ohver Morosco’s delightful comedy,
“Peg o’ My Heart,” which will shortly
be seen at the Grand opera house Sat-

proves conclusively that New York can
still laugh most heartily and sincerely
at humor which is not coarse and
risque, which -shows' that a simple
story, directly and simply told, is more
potent thai4 any plot fantastic, complex
or merely outre. The play is de-
scribed as a comedy of youth and love
and is from the pen of J. Hartley Man-
ners, who also wrote such wonderful
successes as "Zira" and “The House
Next Door.” Mr. Morosco has given
the play that comes to this city a
lavish mounting and supplied an ex-
cellent,cast of players.

Special to The Tribune.
Austin, Tex., Jan. 30.—Introduction
in the house of a bill by Representa-
tive Yantis of Athens providing for a
series of stringent amendments to the
Allison liquor law is claimed to be
a part of the program of the"pros to
take the antis at their word; in con-
nection with the submission resolution,
and that it will be followed on Friday,
when that resolution comes up for third
reading and final passage, by the pros
accepting the “bone , dry” substitute
offered last week by Representative
Babgy. The Yantis bill, if enacted,
would make prohibition in dry terri-
tory in the state “bone dry.” The
amendments are drawn in harmony
with the statute passed by the legisla-
ture of West Virginia which has been
upheld by the Supreme court of West
Virginia. The Yantis bill does not
change the penalties as provided in
the Allison law, but adds restrictions'
to the present law which*' makes it im-
possible to receive by shipment in pro-
hibition territory from the outside, and
the only manner in which intoxicating
liquors may be received is by the in-
dividual procuring it in quantities not
in excess of half a gallon at a time and
transporting it himself to his home.
SUNDAY CLOSING BILL.
The house spent more than am hour
considering- the new Sunday law by
Nichols and Hunt which defines the
articles or service which may be sold
or rendered on Sundays. The bill orig-
inally carried with it a local option
feature giving cities of 5,000 or more
population the right to determine the
question for themselves, but this clause
was eliminated from the measure.
There was a spirited debate on. the
proposition. During the course of it
Representative Smith of Scurry made
his maiden speech in support of the
bill. He was interrupted by. Thompson
of Red River, who wanted to know “if
you can legislate a man into Heaven?”'
Mr. Smith replied that ‘that's about
the orly way some of them will ever
get there.
“Do you think, you ought to drive an
auto on Sunday?” asked Mr. Spradley.
“Yes, 11 do,” replied Mr. Smith, “but
you ought to buy your gasoline on Sat-
urday and ask the automobile man to
go to church 9n Sunday with you.”
Representative Lee opposed the bill
and asserted that “this is. a good time
for the pros in the house to let it be
known whether or not they are in fa-
vor of having soft drinks sold on Sun-
day.”
An effort to strike out the enacting
clause failed by a vote of 70 to 53, and
after some further debate in which
some of the modern nonintoxicating
drinks got a lot of free advertising,
the bill was engrossed by a vote of 68
to 55.
The bill permits the sale of shroud-
ing material, newspapers, flowers,
Fruits, medicines, ice, ice cream, milk,
bread, soft drinks, cigars, tobacco, and
the operation of telephones and tele-
graph offices on Sundays. It permits
the operation of livery stables, garages,
hospitals, bath houses and restaurants,
and the sale of gasoline and the oper-
ation of meat markets up to 9 o'clock.
REDISTRICTING BILL ENGROSSED.
The outlook is better now than at
any time in the last four years, for the
passage of a congressional redistrict-
ing bill. The house bill was passed
to engrossment after the committee in
charge of the bill had accepted prac-
tically every amendment offered. Mem-
bers of the house in debate declared
they would not stand on technicalities,
nor would they object seriously .to the
makeup of the districts. “What we
want is a redistricted state,” said Rep-
resentative Murrell, speaking for the
committee, “so that we can stop elect-
ing misfits as congressmen-at-large."
Representative Bagby sought to have
the bill postponed until Feb. 6. On that
day the. woman’s suffrage resolution
will be up for consideration and he
said all the members would be present.
His motion was lost and the bill, aft-
er considerable debate, was engrossed.
It provides that the tenure of office
of the men now serving the state in
congress shall not be disturbed and the
bill; if passed, - will become ef fective
at the election in 1918.
HOUSE MILL GRINDS.
The house yesterday afternoon
worked rapidly on the engrossment
terms unless reduced to extremities.
The German people, who would lose
nothing except the ambitions artfully
instilled into them, cannot accept, so
long as Prussian supremacy persists,
but they will be able to compare the
rapidly growing prosperity of their
country before the war with the dis-
aster which they owe to the ruling
caste.”
In the course of his article Lord
Sydenham says: '
“While President Wilson has
throughout conscientiously endeavored
to maintain rigid impartiality in his
utterances, it cannot be said that
American neutrality has been as rig-
idly observed. Two embassies at
Washington has been permitted to be-
come bases of operations against the
allies, and the fact that they have been
used also to organize outrages. threat-
ening the lives and property, of Amer-
ican citizens, cannot be regarded as
balancing the account. Two wrongs
do not make a right, and, remember-
ing the costly expiation entailed by
the delay of the British government
to prevent the sailing of the Alabama
from the Mersey, we may regret that
measures were not taken to limit the
activities of enemy agents occupying
privileged positions in the United
States.”
T. P. O’Connor, who has an article
in Lloyds Weekly, appears to believe
that internal conditions in Germany
and Austria-Hungary will force the
hand, of the militarist governments.
“I have no doubt,” he writes, “that
the condition of things there is- get-
ting worse and worse every day. If
one could hear the confession of any
sane and decent man of business in
Germany, I am sure they would, al-
most to a man, outside of the muni-
tion profiteers, join in denunciation of

unique tour of the country for Greater
Vitagraph, is one of the best known
and most popular of motion picture
actresses. She is in Galveston today,
) to appear twice this afternoon and
twice tonight at the Queen theater.
Her versatility is not at all. confined
to the screen, where her triumphshave
been many. She is a writer and speak-
er of such talent that she is nearly
as well known .in literature and on the
platform as in the picture drama.
it'was in response to appeals from
exhibitors, women’s clubs, "church so-
cieties, civic bodies and photoplay stu-
dents that she has been given an op-
portunity by Vitagraph to get about
and deliver them; her message.
An extensive itinerary has been ar-
ranged for Miss Tapley, whose appear-
