No Change Indicated in Flax, Hemp and Jute Schedule. WOOL BATTLE TO COME Citadel of Protectionists Will Be Under Fire Monday Manufac turers and Growers to Pre sent Unbroken Front. WASHINGTON, Jan. 25. A virtually undisturbed tariff on the variety of ar ticles in the flax, hemp and Jute sched' ule was Indicated at today's tariff re Vision hearing before the House ways and means committee. fo action win be taken until the committee consid ers the schedule in executive session next month, but members have Indi cated that they considered most of the duties as already highly competitive. The Government is getting approxl mately J47,0OO,00O revenue annually through this schedule unaer tne pres ent law. Several new industries in the flax side of the schedule applied for con tinued protection. A. Stanford White, of Chicago, told of efforts to protect an American flax-growing enterprise. Other witnesses declared that free raw flax was the logical tariff rate to pro mote Industry. Range of Subjeeta Wide. There were witnesses from New Tork. Chicago, Boston. Philadelphia and other cities, and the tariff talk ranged all the way from typewriter ribbons to laces and curtains. Max Wilner. of New York, recom mended a straierht ad valorem rate of 35 per cent on table linen and similar articles, now 30, 3b ana ts per cenu Peter Gouled, of Union Hill, N. J., a manufacturer, contended that the aver age Income of a domestic cotton lace manufacturer was less tnan tne aver age income of a progressive farmer. Free admission of raw flax, now dutiable at 1 cent a pound, was advo cated by Patrick Boyle, of Paterson, N. J., a flax dresser. Retention of the present tariff on carpets, mattings and rugs manufac tured from vegetable fibers was urged bv Mvron W. Robinson, of new YorK, president of a carpet company and act ing as committee for American manu facturers of these products. Dakota Fanners Quoted. A ripple of excitement was created when V. R. Blehden, of Buffalo, N. T testifying in favor of retaining the duty on flax tow, said the farmers in the flax section of the Dakotas had told him the committee was "the damndest set of fellows you ever saw.' He said they warned him that the com mittee "would not listen to you; that they gave you five or 10 minutes and shut you out;" that "they want to ruin the whole world," and that Mr. Payne, the Republican ranking member, "is in with them now." Representative Payne did not hear the remark, but when it was repeated to him he roared with laughter. The wool schedule, the citadel of the protectionists, will be under fire next Monday, and it is expected that the woolgrowers and Wool Manufacturing Association will present an unoroaen front in their fight against any change in the present rates. The expectation, however, is that the Democratic majority both in the com mittee and House in the next Congress will favor the same revision as incor porated In the Underwood bill that passed the House at the last session of Congress. The measure would have consider ably reduced the present wool tariff, but President Taft vetoed the bill on the-eround that there was insufficient Information as to the basis of the bill to determine what effect it might have on the Industries of the country.

The witness said that his com pany and the Red "D" line had no agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, but had tired or constant rate wars, and as maintenance of ap proximately the same rates for the same service was " essential in the steamship business, rates in the Porto Rlcan trade probably would "go back to what they were before," If the Bull line would drop out or stop rate-cut ting.

I am in receipt of testimonl a 1 s frequently from rheumatic sub jects who have been benefited by the use of Pe-ru-na. A. great many re coveries have been made, al though I have n v e r recom mended Pe-ru-na for rheuma- n I tism esoeciany. L..Ai.:.i, " tor me Columbus onio. ' how Pe - ru - na could be used as a remedy for rheu matism with very excellent results. Acid Stomack Makes Rheumatism. The trouble is, first, with digestion. The digestive organs have not done their work properly. Or if they have the appropriatlve organs are sluggish. Or the excretory organs. Now, what I should do is to give Pe-ru-na in these cases. First, because Pe-ru-na will cer .,tmniota Hh'i'.tlnn nharnen the IHJlliy t3t-i"".-'-.-. " n , appetite, increase the relish of food. Second. e-ru-n win iiukavii circulation of blood, thereby making appropriation better. The food after it is digested must be taken up by the glands and carried to the tissues where it is needed. Third, Pe-ru-na will stimulate the excretory functions, the kidneys, the solitary glands, and the liver, as well as the bowels. Fourth, should there be a catarrhal condition of the stomach or bowels rheumatism is almost inevitable. A mucous membrane affected by catarrh cannot perform Its function properly, either in furnishing the appropriate digestive Juices or in absorbing the product of digestion. Pe-ru-na, there fore, is an excellent remedy, as it tends to remove the catarrh and to produce a normal condition of the raucous mem brane. Pe-ra-ai Protects Against Rheumatism. A remedy that will do these things does protect the system against rheu matism. Even after the rheumatism has begun it is helpful If not absolute ly necessary that such a remedy be taken, in order to prevent the further accumulation of the morbid materials in the blood. This Is the way I should treat rheu matism. I do not regard Pe-ru-na as a specific for rheumatism. Not by any means. I would not call It a rheu matic remedy. But it is a remedy for digestion, assimilation and excretion. When these functions are properly stimulated and regulated the cause of rheumatism is removed, and in this way much benefit Is derived. Should any one afflicted with chronic rheumatism or acute rheumatism begin the use of Pe-ru-na, after they have taken a bottle or so. If they wish they can consult me.

ASK YOUR DRUG GIST FOR FREE PERUNA ALMA NAC FOR 1913., BACKACKE A ALL SHOULD HEED It Is One of the First Signs of Kid ney Troubles, if Neglected, Serious Diseases - Follow - i No one can be well and healthy un less tho kidneys work properly and keep the blood pure. When they be come clogged up and Inactive, Nature has a way of warning you. Backache is 'one of the first symp toms. You may also be troubled with disagreeable, annoying bladder disor ders; have attacks of lumbago or rheu matism; become nervous, tired, and feel all worn out; puffy swellings show un der the eyes or in the feet and ankles; and many other symptoms are noticed. If they are neglected, dropsy, diabetes or Brlght's disease, which so often proves fatal, may result. It Is not only dangerous, but need less for you to suffer and endure the tortures of these troubles, for the new discovery, Croxone, quickly and surely ends all such misery. There Is no more effective remedy known for the prompt cure of all such troubles than this new, scientific preparation, because it removes the cause. It soaks right Into the kidneys, through the walls and linings; cleans out the clogged up pores; neutralizes and dissolves the poisonous uric acid and waste matter that lodge in the joints and muscles and cause those terrible rheumatic pains, and makes the kid neys filter and sift the poison out of the blood and drive It from the system. Yoy will find Croxone different from all other remedies. There is nothing else on earth like It. It Is so prepared that it is practically impossible to take it Into the human system without re sults. You can secure an original package of Croxone at trifling cost from any first-class drug store. All druggists are authorized to personally return the purchase price if Croxone should fall In a single case. Three does a day for a few days Is often all that Is ever needed to cure the worst backache, re lieve rheumatic pains, or overcome urinary disorders.
