ITS HEALING VIRTUE , Any one who has ever walked through a forest of pine trees wllk remember now, almost unconsciously, the head was thrown back and the lungs expanded as they inhaled with long, deep breaths the pine-laden air. How invigorating it was, now healing! Scientists claim that thousands of men and women who suffer from lung and bronchial affections could be relieved and cured were they able to live out among the pine trees. Unfortunately, comparatively few rt in a position to avail themselves of this remedy, but for t?0"erw'wn'.n,u3t sty at home, the Vir gin Oil of Pine compound pure, pre pared by the Leach Chemical Co.. of Cincinnati, provides the healing, health giving properties of the pines.

(Cnlted Press Leased Wire.) Washington, Feb. 26. The house to day by a viva voce vote adopted a reso lution which Representative Tawney in troduced under privilege, providing for the appointment of a select committee of five to consider the speech delivered yesterday by Representative Cook of Colorado, attacking President Roose velt, with a view to having it expunged from the house record. Cook In discussing the secret service matter, said: i "It is unfortunate not only for Pres ident Roosevelt, but for the country. that he has not a legal mind and has no equipoise of reason, riding through and around the arena of political action on his broncho of arrogant, egotistical Impulse, pretending to throw his lariat of execution at the heels and broad horns of capital for the delectation of voting labor, and ending the scene with the cunning catch of a prairie wolf or a gopher. So denunciatory of the president was Cook that he was denied the privilege of continuing his remarks after he had spoken but a few minutes. In the main he was addressing himself to the work of the secret service agents in Colorado in a certain alleged land fraud case. One of them, he stated, was a horse thief. The case had come to the Unit ed States supreme court and was unan imously decided In favor of the defend ants. Cook declared that "in all this fuss and feathers of the whole administra tion the president and his pliant attor ney general had not sent a single plu tocrat to the penitentiary. BOOZE AT CAPITOL; NOTHING TO BE DONE fOnlted Pren TmmA Wire.) Sacramento, Feb. 26. Although free booze is still on tap in the headquarters of the sergeant-at-arms of both houses of the legislature and the fact Iswell known to most of the "members of both houses, there is a strong disinclination on their part to take up the matter with a view to its elimination. One of the prominent members of the upper house said today: r'As for myself I take drinks down town after adjournment of the senate. But from what has transpired there can be little doubt that drinks are kept In the state capitol. If we should take the matter up, there would be trouble among ourselves, animus would be en gendered and really good legislation would be seriously hindered. Suppose the sergeants-at-arms of both houses should be arrested for this violation of the law. the same condition would ob tain. The members of the 'legislature would be compelled to testify and the result would v be the' same as If -we con ducted an Investigation. . I would sug gest that It wotild be a good thing for members to - introduce resolutions call ing on the sergeants-at-arms to discon tinue the practice of keening liquor in the capitol.
