Thirty two millions, approximately, are to be expended. Congressman James A. Tawney of Minnesota, chairman of the committee on appropriations, Just re turned from Tauama with seventeen members of the committee, predicts that the canal will be completed by Dec. 31, 1014. "We found everything going along In the most satisfactory way," the Congressman declares. "There may be a million cut off the sum of $32,000,000 asked for construc tion, although demands in the main have been modest. Reductions will be asked In only a few departments. "So cial conditions there are better gener ally than among the workmen of the United States. Workmen are well cared for and satisfied. We found the employes, clerical, medical and engin eering, were paid 50 per cent more than at home, while quarters are fur nished. A single man gets a room: married men a house. Canal men are paid one-third more than at home, and they can live more cheaDl.v. The gov ernment sells them supplies at a lower rate than home prices. Ice water and light are cheaper than In New York. Sanitary conditions are all that can be tesired." t In all the money centers of the coun try, as well as In Wall street, the news of the government's bond and note Is sues caused a feeling of relief and the financial skies were clearing. Every where bankers were eager to get the new securities and there was no need of an underwriting syndicate. Many sent telegrams of congratulation to the President and Secretary Cortelyou. Subscriptions to both Issues have al ready begun to pour In. Nevertheless Chicago's clearing house-carried out Its project of Issuing certiacates in denom inations of $1, $2, $5 and $10, and over $3,000,000 In these were eagerly grabbed for current business needs. At New York quantities of currency brought 2 and 8 per cent on the curb. But at the same time arrangements were In progress for a resumption of a cash basis all over the country. The Indictment of three officials of the Bor ough Bank of Brooklyn for false re ports of the bank's condition was taken as another sign of the financial house- cleaning In progress. Three railroad companies, the Atch ison, Topeka and Santa Fe, St Louis and San Francisco, and the Missouri Pacific, have absolutely declined to comply with an order of the PostofBce Department that for the next forty days, these roads should carry empty mall bags and other mall equipment back to the distribution centers with out compensation therefor. The reason for this order was a desire to prevent a tie-up or congestion of mall during and Just preceding the holidays. To this end, It was thought that it would be well to have the equipment trans ferred more speedily than can be done by freight, whloh Is the method pro vided. While there Is some doubt as to the right of the department to en force Its order, the law permits the use of the express companies for the pur pose In question, which would meet the emergency, though proving rather ex pensive. The military authorities of the vari ous governments have not overlooked the Important part which airships will probably play In the wars of the fu ture, and are making active prepara tions for both offensive and defensive operations along this Hue. It Is re ported that Captain Thomas T. Love lace, the aeronaut, recently made a bal loon trip over the walls of Fort Wads- worth, New York Harbor, and took a series of bird's-eye photographs of the fortifications, showing the entire prac ticability of obtaining information In this way. This material was turned over to the War Department, and It Is Intimated that the aeronaut will be giv en a commission In the United States Vrrny Balloon Corps. Developments in regard to the pend ing prosecutions of the whisky dealers for violation of the pure food law Indi cate that the question as to what should be construed as pure whisky was finally decided by President Roose velt, to whom the matter was taken by Dr. Wiley, chemist of the Department of Agriculture. The President con curred with the chemist In the opinion that to meet the requirements of the law the whisky must be the pure spir its, unmixed with neutral spirits, fla voring or coloring matter, which pro duces the article called "blended vhlsky." Delegates from five Central Amer can republics met with Secretary oi State Root and Ambassador Creel of Mexico at Washington to discuss a per manent peace program.

HOME MADE MIXTURE SAID TO BE INEXPENSIVE AND EASILY PREPARED BY ANYONE. (s Said to Promptly Relieve Backache and Overcome Kidney Trouble and Blad der Weakness Though Harmless and Pleasant to Take. What will appear very interesting to many people here is the article taken from a New York daily papar, giving a simple prescription, as formulated by a noted authority, who claims that he . has found a positive remedy to cure almost any case of backache or kidney or bladder derangement, in the follow ing simple prescription, if taken before the stage of Bright'a disease: Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce; Compound Syrup Sareaparilla, three ounces. Shake well in a bottle and take in teaspoonful doses after each meal and again at bedtime. A well known authority, when asked regarding this prescription, stated that the ingredients are all harmless, and can be obtained at a small cost from any good prescription pharmacy, or the mixture would be put up if asked to do so. He further stated that while this prescription is often prescribed in rheu matic afflictions with splendid results, he could see no reason why It would not be a splendid remedy for kidney and urinary tioubles and backache, as it has a peculiar action upon the kid ney structure, cleansing these meat im ; pcrtant organs and helping them to sift ' and filter from the blood the foul acids and waste matter which cause sickness and suffering. Those who suffer can make no mistake in giving it a trial. In France for th privilega ef wearing men's trousers the government charges woman a tax of about $10. You Can Get Allen's foot-Case FREf.

The popularity of the grape Juice both as a beverage and a flavoring has certainly Increased during the last few years, says the New York Tribune. Some women, who years ago began to prepare It to use at communion instead of fermented wine, have found It deli cious In desserts, as well as a refresh ing drink, made festive with sprigs of mint and slices of lemon. ' Here are sev eral good ways to prepare unfermented grape Juice: Pick the grapes off the stems, put them In a covered stone Jar aud set the Jar in a pot of boiling wa ter. Let the water boil around the Jar for half an hour, or until the grapes are well cooked. Strain the Juice from the grapes and let it stand In a cool place over night In the morning bring the Juice to the boiling point and let It boil for twenty minutes. Add sugar to suit the taste. Fill heated fruit Jars to the brim and seal tightly. This rule is an old Tribune recipe and Is very rich, as no water is used when cooking the grapes. N it should be diluted with a little Ice water when used as a beverage. Here Is a rule for unfermented grapv Juice in which water Is used : Pick over the grapes, rejecting all unsound ones. Put In a porcelain lined kettle and al most cover with cold water. Heat slowly, mashing the grapes and cooking until all the Juice is out. Drain In a Jelly bag and measure the liquid, adding one-third of a cupful of granu lated sugar for each quart Boil for four minutes, then bottle and seal. The following recipe was sent by a Tribune subscriber some time ago. Its special advantage is that the measure ments are exact and little is left to one's Judgment, an advantage which a young or . Inexperienced preserver will appreciate : "To twelve quarts of grapes, stemmed and washed, add three pints of water. Boll them In a porcelain lined kettle until soft; strain and to every three quarts of Juice add a pound of sugar. Heat to the boiling point and seal in air-tight cans." An bid housewife who has had much experience In making grape Juice for church purposes gives the following points, which may be of use to those who have had little experience. She says that she finds cheesecloth the best thing for straining the Juice and that if the stems of the grapes are left on the Juice seems to strain out better, as they break up the thick mass of cooked grapes, making it less compact She uses ordinary glass fruit Jars. She puts them In a pan of hot water with hot water in them and a granite pie plate on the stove with water in it. Stand one hot Jar, empty, at a time on the pie plate ; put its rubber ring on It. Fill to overflowing with boiling hot Juice; seal at once as tightly as possl bla Before you put away the Jars test them by carefuly turning them upside down. If Juice begins to exude put the contents Into the preserving kettle again. Try another top and fill to over flowing with water from the tea kettle. If, when' filling the Jars, there Is not quite enough Juice for the last Jar, al ways fill up with ordinary boiling wa ter until It overflows. This last Jar will not be quite so rich In quality as the others, but it will keep, as It would not were the Jar not completely full. Do not put the Jars where there Is a possibility of their freezing, but keep In a cold place. ;Tr " ALCOHOL 3 PER CENT?"

Some people are always suffering from this peculiar phase of fear. They are apprehensive that some great mis fortune is coming to them, that they are going to lose their money or their position ; or they are afraid of accident, or that some fatal disease Is developing in them. If their children are away they see them In all sorts of catastro phies railroad wrecks, burning cars, or shipwrecks. They are always picturing the worst. "You never, can tell what will happen," they say, "and It Is better to prepare for the worst." The man who lives under this terri ble shadow of Impending danger, with this dread, that something is going to happen to his business, his family, or himself, Is In no condition to ward .off the evil before which he cowers. Ills mental attitude lowers his vitality, les sens his powers of resistance, vitiates his efficiency, and ruins his resourceful ness. Success Magazine. CONTAGIOUS BLOOD POISON NO L1MTT0 ITS POWERS FOR EVIL Contagious Blood Poison Las brought more suffering:, misery and humilaJ don into the world than all otter diseases combined ; there is hardly any limit to its powers for evil. It is the blackest and vilest of all disordera, wrecking the lives of those unfortunate enough to contract it aud often being transmitted to innocent offspring, a blighting legacy of suffering and shame. So highly contagious i3 the trouble that innocent persons may contract it by using the same table ware, toilet articles or clothing of one in whose blood the treacherous virus has taken root. -Not only i3 it a powerful poison but a very deceptive one. t)uly those who have learned by bitter experience know by the little sore or ulcer, which usually makes its appearance first, of' the suffering which is to follow. It comes in the form of ulcerated mouth and throat, unsightly copper colored spots, swollen glands in the groin, falling hair, offensive sores and ulcers on the bo5y, and in severe cases the finger nails drop off, the bones become diseased, the nervous system is shat tered and the sufferer becomes an object of pity to his fellow luan. Especi ally is the treacherous nature of Contagious Blood Poison, shown when the Infected person endeavors to combat the poison with mercury and potash. These minerals will drive away all outward symptoms of the troubles for a while, aud the victim is deceived into the belief that he is cured. When, however, the treatment is left off he finds that the poison has only been driven deeper into.the blood and the disease reappears, and usually in worse form because these strong minerals have not ouly failed to remove the virus from the blood but have weakened the entire system because of their destructives action. S. S. S. is she ouly real and certain cure for Contagious Blood Pol son. It is made of a combination of healing blood-purifying roots, herbs and barks, the best in Nature's great laboratory of forest and field. We offer a reward of $1,000 for proof that S. S. S. contains a particle of mineral in any form. S. S.

So thoroughly does S. S. S. cleanse the circulation that no signs of the disease are ever seen airain, and offsprin? is protected.
