An Important Measure to Be Brought Before the Legislature. Topeka Capital:" One of the most important questions to come before the legislature this winter undoubtedly will be the reapportionment of the state into congressional districts. There is quite a sentiment for action of this sort and Governor-elect Bailey will recommend redistricting in his first message to the legislature. As matters now stand Kansas has eight congressmen and but seven congressional districts. The new district, is generally conceded, will be made mainly from counties in the eastern end of the present Seventh district, with a few from the Third and Fourth districts, with Wichita as a central point.

It is probable also that the boundary lines of every other district in the state with the possible excep tion of the Sixth, will have to be changed more or less. Of course when the time comes to redistrict the state there will be a lot of pulling and hauling, as each congressman will probably object to losing any of the counties in his present district. It will be difficult to reapportion the state so as to suit every one. For that reason some believe the bill, introduced, may never become a law. Two years ago George P.

Hayden, Representative from Cherokee county, was chairman of the legislative apportionment committee in the house. Is reported that he would not he averse to being made chairman of the congressional apportionment commute during the coming session. This committee will be an important one this winter if, as expected, an attempt made to redistrict the state. Hayden, it is said, was Cyras Leland's personal choice for speaker.

Now that the holidays are over and you have abused your digestive organs until they are on the point of rebellion, the proper thing to do is to get back into working condition as speedily as possible. "A stitch in time sames nine" is an old saw but it is a great truth in homely dress and applies with greatest force to the human body.

A little trifling ailment which was not considered worthy of a second thought has in countless instances cost a life. A "stitch in time" would have saved much suffering and distress to the victim and his family. Those who have to fight the. battle ot life, the wage-earners, must at once get in shape for another year's work. If they start out with an ailing body, be it ever so trifling, they cannot do their best and if no attention is paid to the trouble, it soon becomes severe, entailing loss of time and money or worse- Prudent persons will get rid of the disorder as speedily as pos-Mble.

A few doses of Prickley Ash Bitters will do this work. It- will dense and strengthen the digestive organs, empty and purify the bowels, regulate the whole system and im part a feeling of strength and energy that will make work a pleasure. It Is good for the whole family. Children who are puny, sickly or who have eaten, too freely of sweet stuff will Im mediately improve under Its beneficial effect. For ladies, particularly those subject to headache, indigestion, or the ailments peculiar to their sex, it i3 of the greatest value as it purifies the system thoroughly, tones up the Vital organs, clears the complexion and promotes good appe tite, vigor and George 1 LONG -BELL W.
