Mr. Brandegee made the following statement about the matter “The senator from Arizona (Mr. Ashurst) has put into the Record an icle from a newspaper which states at the republican members of the idiciary committee are filibustering against taking a vote on the nomina- tion of a justice of the supreme court of the United States, and he has given it out to the press of the country, “I have attended every meeting of that committee in which that nomina- tion has been considered. There has been no time when the republicans have made the slightest attempt to | hinder coming to a vote. I myself the other day, when the debate seemed to langui-h, suggested that if nobody else cared to be heard, it was the duty of the chair to order the roll to be called, whereupon senator commenced to discuss the case “It does seem to me that the sena- tor from Arizona, having caused this article to be published all over the country, making a partisian charge, charging all the republicans of the committee with an attempt to filiQus- ter upon this nomination until after certain political conventions have been held, either ought to prove his charge or to withdraw it. I do mnot| think myself that he ought to leave it in the Record, reasserting it by putting it in the Record, after he has heard the disclaimers of the republican members."” “I thing the senator is right,” re- plied Ashurst. “I ought to withdra it after the disclaimer, because what- ever 1 may have thought then, or whatever I may think now—and I re- peat, nobody can imprison my thoughts, or censor what I 1 think there is force in the senator’s statement that senators having dis- claimed it, having asserted that they are not filibustering, T ask to with- draw that statement Brandegee ation of to the some say HEBREW SCHOOL t Sessions in Building on i t at 4 o'Clock This Afternoon.

GRIP AND NEURASTHENIA There is a form of neurasthenia that follows the grip. Doctors call it ‘‘post- rippal’”’ neurasthenia. One of the oremost medical authorities of New York city in a lecture in the interna- tional clinics, said: e “‘Broadly speaking, every victim of the grip will suffer from post-grippal neurasthenia also. Lowering of ner- vous tone with increased irritability is the most striking effect of the disease, languor of mind and body, disturbed fitfal sleep and vague pains in the head and elsewhere. The treatment calls for rest and a tonic. ’ Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills, a non-alco- Tolic tonic, are particularly suited for building up the blood and strengthen- ing the nerves after an attack of the grip. The rich, red blood expels the lingering germs from the system and transforms despondent grip victims in- to cheerful, healthy, happy men and ;| women. , If you have had the grip get a box of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills now from the nearest drug store and begin the treatment at once. On request we will send you a free pamphlet, ‘‘Building Up the Blood,”” which contains a chapter on the grip.
