Care lessness or duluy iu olteudiitu to Nature's demands, brings on disorders which, sooner or luter, have a bad effect on the general health. , Sluggish bowels, inactive liver, retarded digestion are important' matters calling for immediate attention. BEECH AEI'S PILLS are a proven remedy. They possess corrective properties which act-favorably upon the several organs and induce free and regular movements, so very essential to the bodily health. Do not fail to give instant attention to the calls of Nature. Neglect invites disease. Beecham's Tills are the old and re- liable safeguard of health and can alwajrsbe depended upon to Keep Stomach, Liver and RpFefein Good order Boxes 10o and S8o wltb full dlraotlona. before the President's purely formal word of greeting is heard, the guests have been pushed on and aro almost out of hearing. "I got sixteen of these invitations for my constituents to tho nvy and army receCpion,' sajld a New York member of the House, the other day. This member ccrtojnly hud a great run of, luck, for this particular reception is the favorite among Wnshingtoiilans. The gold lace of tho army and navy ottlcers and the glittering regalias and uniforms of the diplomatic corps make it a moat attractive sight, not to men tion tho handsome gowns of the wom en. "My constituents," continued the New York member, "thought that re ception waa the greatest thing theyj hud ever witnessed. They had never been to one and were thoroughly im pressed with the whole show. It ought to help me some In my next campaign, for those little bits of pasteboard that carded them by the doorkeepers has certainly established my station at home with the man In tho White House." When the expose of conditions in tho meatpacking houses of the West waa made, a great hue and cry went up in Europe in protests against Ameri can meats and the way in which they were prepared for the market. No where was this product more emphatic than In Germany. A few days ago a document was read before the House Committee on : Agriculture that dic tates the existence of practices in Ger many that would never be tolerated in this country. It appears that horses and doga are common articles of con sumption as human food and that the laws of Germany recognize them as such. This document was a report of Con-sul-General Hugh Pitcairn, of Ham burg, summarizing a report of the German department of health, recent ly published with regard to the results of the cattle a.nd meat inspection in the German Empire during the year 1904, from which the following ex tract, read to the committee, was of niore than ordinary lntertst: "It la worth while mentioning that during the year under report the num ber of cattlo slaughtered was excep tionally high, owing to the scarcity in food-stuffs. There were submitted to inspection 3,328,903 head of beeves over three months old; 4.237,491 calves less than three months old; 15,066,116 hogs; 2,268,739 sheep; - 423,762 goats; 122, 768 horses, etc., and . 4,787 dogs." It Is needless to add that whatever may have been the carelessness . of American packers with regard to sani tary surroundings, horses and dogs, in this country, are unknown as an article of food. J.
