Advices here were that the state po lice were hemmed in between the fir ing forces on the two hills. Deputy sheriffs were dispatched to augment the police force. Little fear for the safety of authorities was felt, however. Uush Additional Police. Additional state police are being rushed here from Willis branch and other West Virginia pVints.

In a state ment given out here today Ellis t-earles. tditor of the United Mine Workers' Journal, official organ of the coal miners' union, said there is a misunderstanding of the situation in the "West Virginia coal fields.

These men have refused to quit the union, but are standing firm upon their rights. It is "nfnir to, the miners to refer to the unfortunate situation as a strike." TO IXVESTIGATF. FIGHTING.

High Rates and Poor Market Pais Crimp In Shipping in Kansas Hides Do Not Pay' Cot of Transportation Hay Is Rot ting on Ground Board of Agriculture Receives Surprising Report. Because of the present high level of ireignt rates ana low market prices, Kansas farmers have practically quit shipping hay, straw, hides and other low-valued agricultural commodities, according to information received Wy J. C. Mohler, secretary, of the State Board of Agriculture, from a special questionnaire to crop reporters in every county in the state. For the same reasons farmers have also ma terially reduced their shipments of grain and livestock, the reports in dicate. t Beef hides shipped by Rush county farmers do not any more than pay the cost of transportation and in some cases do not do that. Other farmers report their returns come back in the form of a few one-cent stamps. A Rawlins county farmer shipped a hide and received as remittance the infor mation 4'Skin didn't bring price of freight charges." A farmer near Hays was asked to send seventeen cents to pay the deficit on a hide, while an other hide shipped to the St: Louis market brought $1.80, with freight amounting to $2.12. A Reno county man relates his ex perience in selling a calf hide at Hutchinson for forty cents. 'On the same day he purchased two pair -of leather shoe strings, paying forty-five cents. Prof. C. W. McCampbell, head of the animal husbandry department at the Kansas State Agricultural college, states shipping costs now represent from 5 to 10 per cent of the gross re ceipts from various classes of live stock shipped from Kansas points to the nearest market. The experience of a Rush county farmer is typical of others reported. He said: "It used to cost $35 to ship a load of cattle' to Kansas City that would sell from $1,500 to $3,000. Now it costs $107 to ship the same class of cattle that will sell for $1,806 to $l,t00, and the cost to raise the latter has been more." Sheep Jfot Worth Shipping. Sheep apparently are hardly worth shipping at all. A Sumner county farmer shipped 109 head of sheep to Kansas City and the freight and commission amounted to more than the returns from the sheep. Another shipper reports' a net return of forty cents a head for a sheep consignment. TO PROBE SERVICE Calling of Special Grand Jury Is Considered. Action Follows Testimony Be fore Postal Inspector.

W.A. WHITE DAUGHTER DIES Miss Mary's Fnll From Horsa Re sults in Death Today. Emporia, Kan., May 13. Miss Mary White, daughter of William Allen V lilt'. ,1 lli'.ii'iiv v.. 1 zette and well known writer, died this morning from effects of a fall while horseback riding last Tuesday evening. Her skull was fractured and she did not regain consciousness. Just how the accident occurred Is not known. Miss White was found unconscious along the roadside by per sons passing in a motor car. Her horse was grazing nearby. Mr. White, who has been in the east giving a series of lectures, will arrive home to morrow morning. Word reached him of the accident while he was en route from Washington to Atlantic City. Wednesday. When Miss White had not been re stored to consciousness the day fol lowing the accident, specialists were summoned from Kansas City. An X ray photograph revealed a fracture of the skull extending from a point near the temple to the base of the brain. Miss White would have been 17 years offl next month. She was an experienced equestrienne. ha-ing been accustomed to take horseback rides since a small girl. She was a popular member of the younger society set. She is sur vived by her parents and a brother. William, who is attending Harvard university. David Bflll Declines Appointment. Washington, May 13. Dr. David Jayne Hill of New York is understood to have definitely declined to be con sidered for ambassador to Japan, and it is said he is foremost among those now under consideration for ambas sador to Germany when diplomatic re lations with the country are resumed. another received seventy-one cents a head.- i Because of the comparatively high rates for short distances, a Lincoln county cattleman will drive his cattle to pasture a distance of seventy miles. A Riley county pure-bred cattle raiser reports It formerly cost $8.80 to ship a male calf from Leonardsville to Col by. Now it costs $44. A Sheridan county grain grower re ports it costs 8 to 2 cents to ship a bushel of $1 wheat and 15 cents to ship a bushel of 40 cent barley. Other re ports from the extreme western part of $Jie state indicate, the freight on wheat in some instances reaches 25 cents a bushel or one-fourth of the price at the terminal markets. Low Ocean Rates. One grower compares the cost of ocean transportation on wheat- from Argentina to New York, which he says amounts to about 12 cents a bushel, to a cost of 20 to 80 cents a bushel from. Pawnee county to Kansas City and about 36 cents to New York. Because of the unusually low price for corn; the freight takes a large per centage of the selling price, in some instances more than one-half. When corn was selling at Nortonville, Jef ferson county, for 35 cents, it was selling at Kansas City, a distance of about 100 miles, for 53 cents. The difference of 18 cents represented freight and commission. The freight rate from Stark, Kan., to Houston, Tex., is reported to amount to 28 cents a bushel on corn, practically making it impossible to ship to the gulf. Testimony is unanimous' that the grain sorghums, kafir and milo maize, will hardly, if at all, pay the freight to terminal markets. Hay Rotting on Ground. Hay is reported rotting on the ground or- baled and stored away in barns for lack of a profitable market. A few say they received from $1 to $10 from carloads of hay shipped after the freight was paid. In one instance the shipper actually had -to remit $2 to pay a deficit. One farmer said: "It takes a pretty good load of hay to pay freight and commission." 'A great quantity of hay and feed is wasting," reports a Saline county farmer, "because it can not be profit ably shipped to market and cattle can not be shipped in and out again in order to consume it here."

French au tarorities here have- declined to trans-' mit to th supreme allied council the request of President Ginsberg of the provincial council asking that this city and the ,zone about it be evacu ated by the allied troops.

J' Ballroad managers continue to In sist that they cannot reduce rates un ai there has been a reduction In oper ating expenses. They appear to lose ,sjght of the faet that there is a bis 'overhead which must be maintained Whether. or not they do any business Sand th.af it would be better therefore to keep rolling stock employed at ca pacity. A lowering of rates doubtless ould increase not only the business it the roads but of the whole coun try. The managers probably have taken their stand on this matter tor jthe purpose of bringing about a re duction in wages. But couldn't this have been done without bringing par-v'.-il paralysis on the business of the Mitlre country? Everybody know"s Jhat wages of railroad, employes riould come down. The managers bra under no necessity to prove it. itallroacl workers, owing to the gen erosity' of the government, are paid rait of proportion to what persons em Moycd In other industries are getting Krid out' of proportion to the present j.-j.st of living. j j "Woujd tho people of the United Nates, were the question put to a ypte, favor the prohibition of tobac t?" asks a writer in Leslie's. Prob i!ly not. but th,at is not the way of o prohibitionist. It may be recalled this connection .that national pro tfbltlon of liquor pqver was submitted to a vote of the people. Those wiio f opposed tl tobacco prohibition Will do well not to put their trust in public sentiment. Much legislation, ftfit demanded by the public, is enaet fd in this country. l'There Is no student of economics ho will defend tax-exempt securities jf any kind. Taxes must be paid," fays the St. Louis Times. If holders j. securities 'could be made to pay f4xcs on them without raisins the in terest rates paid by that part of the government issuing such securities, -What the Times says might he accept 4 as true. But no more successful an for Increasing the burden of the eenimon .people evor has been discov ered than Is Involved in the plan of tiitlng evidences of their indebtedness. j j O-Wiclal recognition of the Obregon iivernment by Austria seems to indi ogte that the Austrlans have forgiven icxco far shooting Maximilian. jjThis man' Ernstein, about whom tlte public is seeing so jnuch in thtt sjewspapers. appears to be the "cu- Ist" In modern day thought. 41 L j Gloomy pictures occasionally are 4 awn of present conditions. It has bfil sat4 that thousands are out of worst nd that factories are shut down, Jt is claimed that other fac tories are running on part time, and that wages are being reduced. But. sy "The lows, Homestead," the farmer has not lost his courage. H3 Is out In the field early and late as of yore. Ho may be holding crops that he can't afford to sell at present prices, but he Is not stopping his work. Railroad directorates may talk of receiverships, merchants may be afraid to buy or be unable to sell, transportation companies may assert that they will have to shut down en tirely unless the national treasury is deplotod in thotr favor; Uncle Sam may. In short, be going thru hard times, but while tha farmer fully real ises thiafaet and la making up his mind fn future aetion, he Is today plowing along down the field In the old-time fashion, all the while think ing; and thinking, as tha true Ameri can should, and he is going to make filings happen In the matter of crop production as well as In other matters. California devotes so much time, energy and money to boosting her ad vantages over other parts of the earth that it Is no wonder the Japan ese are anxious to locate there. TAXES AND POLITICS. Tho present secretary of tbe treas ury, also tfea present congress, arc Showing a tendency to become as sub servient to the beck; and tttfl ofh farmer as were the same elements of the Wilson administration to the labor unions. Thia treaa is visible in the. attitude they are taking toward the matter of tax revision. The plan for a tax revision that will take fhe shackles off business Is los ing ground" at Washington. Secretary Mellon's letter to Chairman Fordney leaves bo doubt. Political expediency may doom the sales tax, which, up to the present, ha.i been gaining favor in eongness and with business men. The excess profits tax, eountedon for 1400,000,006 this year. Is to be re pealed, v according to promise, but the same amount is to he derived by-a flat tax on corporations. That la, corpor ations that do not make the current interest return on capita) may be taxed and even the (2,000 exemption j-emoved. Surtaxes are to be reduced so that np Individual will pay more than 40 per cent this year and 3 per cent In Hit, normal tax and surtax combined, as against a possible 73 per cent now. This because the higher rates are uncpllectible.jfterely driving capital Into tax-exempt forms. But the loss of revenue is to be made up by readjustment in the lower sched ules. Commenting on the situation as Jt has recently developed, Roger W. Bab sofj says: There is no uncertainty as to the present major influence on the minds at Washintstoi. The Farmers' Union and other interests have Joined in pro nouncement against a consumption tax." They ignore the economic fact that the present income tax is, in ef fect, a consumption tax. It is esti mated that allowance for federal taxes carried into business costs is the basis forbout 2 3 per cent of average retail prices, whereas a turnover tax could reduce this to not over i Vi per cent of retail value. Nor should the point be missed that the latter figure is all that the government now really recovers. The rest is dissipated in business extravagances, waste, and ex pense attendant upon computation and collection. That the western farmers should oppose anything that will reduce re tail prices is understandable because, so far, this reduction has put the heav iest losses on them. They are mis guided in not being informed that the sales tax la a step o reduce overhead between producer and. consumer, to the benefit of both. That the sales tax, to quote Chair man Fordney, "is the sanest, the most economical and most eifective means of collecting government revenue" a majority in congress is convinced. Senator McCprmick, the leading op ponent, claims to have twenty only, out of the fifty-nine Republican sena tors, pledged against it. Could the sales tax be brought to a vote, it is hardly to be doubted that sufficent Democrat support would be forthcom ing to pass it, if for no other reason than to make capital for 1922, out of the majority party dilemma. Congress has lost its neart, and Is In danser of losins its head, to the farmers. Their plea is vocal, every day, thru two highly paid agents at the capitol. The present congress was elected on a promise to cut the red tape of government regulation and illogical taxation which is strangling business. Election over, the business man tendered a vote of confidence to the Incoming administration, and is waiting patiently. It now appears that congress is tempted to viojate that confidence to play politicsvr-to put ever a "stuffed elephant"-iax reform in place of the real and necessary relief. PRACTICE VS. THEORY. Whatever may he thought of the po litical tendency of President Harding's action in sending American represen tatives to the European, council tables, it is, generally recognized that "the time is fully ripe when this country should be heard In certain matters affecting its interest. There has been manifest ed abroad a disposition to ignore American concern In what is going on. There even has appeared a tendency to -discriminate against this country in respect to those world opportunities which its people played no small part in helping to win for their comrades in arms. Americansdo not relish the spirit and wording or the "mandates." nor the controversy over the disposi tion of tha formerly Gernaan-owned cables, nor the dispute about the Is land of Yap. They find that the only country to which we are apt, even tho mistakenly, to attribute aggressive de signs, Japan, has been brought a good many miles nearer to these shores thru tho appropriation of strategically Important islands In the; Pacific, which He athwart America's path to the Philippines and elsewhere. Americans note that nothing posi tive or substantial haa beej 4R5 about the much-veurrred pledge' to re duce armaments, and consequently, having learned from recent experi ences to be somewhat skeptical in re spect of International ethics, they f eelv ce-mpelled to carry an Irksomely heavy burden of armaments them selves. They find peaeo treaty which not only is far from their as pirations, but which, nearly two and a half years after the alose of the great war, is still the subject of bickering and dickering and the cause of un ceasing turmoil. They find barriers and impediments and wilful interrup tions thrown across the ways of trad and intercourse, In places where the stream of commerce was wont to flow evenly and smoothly. They find wars and preparations for war, including a widespread stata of armed conflict They find bloody wars raging In Po land and in Asia. Minor with no at tempt at hindrance en the part of the allies. In fact, there are Indications of connivance In these disturbances. It is high tima that the United States have something ta say about what Is going on. Isolation and avoiJ auce of European entanglements was an attractive theory, and may have proven useful for campaign purpose but it has not worked out in practice. International Sunday School lesson 9X WILLIAM T. ELLIS. For May If, is. "Working With Others." I. Cor. 12:14-27., The Bible Kind of Socialism. Because of the company it has often kept, the word socialism is in rather bad rspute As a word, it is really good one, for it gathers up the idea own dignity and worth and useful of a working together of all people for ness. "Worms of the dust" were the common welfare. It stands for fellowship and brotherhood and serv ice. The idea back of it, which is the important thing, is a Bible teaching,- one important phase of which consti tutes the present Sunday School Les son. There is nothing in Holy Writ to support the class-eonscioua, hate- filled, destructive conception of a new social system which is widely prev alent in the world todayi Commun ism, or Bolshevism, squarely and definitely parts company with the Bible and the leadership of Jesus. But there is an abundance of teaching in Scriptures for the creation of a new and nobler and fairer and more fra ternal order of human life. This Lesson is based on one of these. a fragment fr.m the great document wnich the Apostle faul wrote to the Christians inyCormthJ That ancient city is itself a ruin, as I saw a couple of years ago, but the principle of Paul are today more powerful and prevalent than aver before. Let me quote: Paul's Pungent Parable. "For the body is not one member, but many. If the foot shall say, 'Be cause I am not the hand, I am not of tho body;' it is not therefore not of the body. And it the ear shall say, 'Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body;' it is not therefore not of the body- If the whoje body were an eye, where were the hearing? If tha whole were hearing, where were the smelling? But now hath God set the members each one of them in the body, even as it pleased Him, And If they were all one member, where were the body? But now they are many members, but one body.- And the eye cannot say to the hand, I have no need of thee: or again the head to the feet, I have no need of you. Jsay, much rather, those members of the body which seem to be more feeble are necessary: and those parts of the body, which we think to be less hon orable, upon' these we bestow more abundant honor; and our uncomely parts have, more abundant comeliness: whereas pur comely parts have no need: but God tempered the body Xo gether, giving more abundant honor to that part which lacked: that there should be no scMsm in the body; but that tha members should have the same care one for another. .And whether one member suffereth, all the members suffer with it; or one mem ber is honored, all the members je joic with it." A Recipe for Restoration. Was ever tHe great idea better put'? Our day's problems international, economic, industrial, religious, po litical are largely a matter of human beings' knowing how to work well to gether. If governments and groups and individuals could subscribe hon estly to Paul's parable of the body and its members, most of the present difficulties of the world would vanish. Restoration and reparation wait upon co-operation. Trouble has come from the. stupid notion of various parts of the body of human society that each is the head, and that the rest of the body is wholly subordinate to it. Of course this idea is absurd: but then most of our sins and blunders are really fool ish. A trunkless head is as futile as a headless trunk. 'The interdepen dence of mankind, as humanity is now slowly learning, is a truth that really takes precedence of the independence of any part of mankind. Jvery aay s issue of the paper is eloquent with il lustrations of the'Word: No man liv- eth to himself, and no man dieth to himself." Mischief has been made by the lodg ing of the same Idea ifi the heads of individuals and there is usually room to spare in any head where this con ception abides. Borne person, think that they have a sort of "divine right" to headship. Pre-eminence is theirs, they believe, by the wisdom of the Omniscient. They openly avowrnr se cretly believe, that God measis them to be privileged and- powerful and that iTtey have no obligation to the great body of their fellows. These are the irritating men and women who- are inflaming the sore places In aociety and roughening the points of human eontuct. They simply are unaware of the divine law' that all of us are meant to be workers togeth er, one with another; and that the only dishonor attaches not to place or position, but to failure to be a worker. The Mistake of "Main .Street." Anybody can be a success in a dream world. To shut one's self within one's self, having little or no real contact-with other persons, is the easy way of living an idea Ufe in our imaginations. There are countless per sons, who believe themselves superior souls, who thus evade the actual tests of life. Most suicides and other fail ures are of this morbid, -self-centered, introspective -group; who have been accustomed to call their isolation by all other names than its real one. which is cowardice. Let us not dodge the clear truth here. God has put us all in a world of men and women. He has decreed that It is not good for one to be alone. Life has been so organized by Him that we are dependent upon human relationships. He has made us, in the Bible phrase, "Members one of an other." To carry out the fundamental programme of God for the race we Simply must learn to work together. Moreover, fellowship with folks is one of the rewards of existence. It is a happiness, as well as a duty, to work with other men and women; and to learn how to be a good fe-. low-laborer in the great service of mankind. Half-baked young persons usually think themselves of a different stuff from others; and quite better than the common run of men and women. These notions are merely "growing pains," usually cured by time: altho the malady persists thruout life with some unfortunates. A recent popular book, tries to make a heroine out of one of these "peculiar" and "superior"' young women, al'ho to the end she cuts a sorry figure. There is mora ef Greenwich Village than of the average small town in the portrayal of a life that is singularly unreal, without any iiut.ns cnarttciers pr qualities. oae rather pities an author who has no conception of the beautiful traits of nelghborliness and friendliness and quiet service and heroism and -godliness which characterize the majority of the people of every normal com munity. The world is beinc made over, not by hysterical and Pharisaical Heroines, so absorbed in a "career of uplift that they have not strength of character to be ordinary good neighbors; but by that countless com pany of men and women who have adjusted themselves to the inevitable task of working with other- people in cheerfulness, helpfulness find good wllL Everybody' Masterpiece. r To work well with others requires two convictions: first, a conviction of one's own personality aaJ duty; and. second, an equal conviction of tha per sonality and rights of our fellow work ers. The person who is hla own Jest self is likeliest to have respect for the in dividuality of every other person with whom his life is linked. Isobody can iwork well who is not conscious of his i never meant to be the associates of God-endowed men and women Neither can one be a true workfellow; who despises his associates, or denies them tlteir inherent rights as children VI a con in u n i amer. The slave and the tyrant are Jaoth economic failures. -Nobody ever doe a completed work. Each person but contributes his part to a whole in which his fel low workers -often those who have gone before, and equipped him are laborers with him. At the loom of life each of us but weaves a section of a pattern, the threads and the ma chinery and the skill having come from other workers, and the whole pattern having come from God. Our care it should be to make sure that wo do not mar the design and nullify the work of these associates. A privilege and a pride it should be to know ourselves workers together with God and with our fellow labor ers, having a share in -the common task of life. That is the real socialism of co-operation And of fellowship, the Bible program for the normal nutnajj being. UTTLE BENNY'S NOTE BOOK BY LEB'PAPE.

Wich Pud6 went in his house and got it, and I took it home, and after suppir I smeered some on one end of my thumb and went, erround to Mary Watklnses house and Mary Watkins was standing by herself on her frunt steps looking even bewtter looking than usual, me showing her my thumb and saying, Ow'tch, holey smoaks, maybe you think this dont hert, its ony a mear scatchf the. O, my goodniss, O mersey, iezent that perfectly dredfilL wy in the werld dident ou have it tied up? sed Mary Watkins.

No, I sed Ony I had, tint it wasent good enuff looking to take out, and Mary Watkins sed. Then 111 tie it up kwith mine.

Wich jest wen she got it tied who eame up but Puds Sirhfclns, an account of him thinking Mary Wat kins fcs all rite too, and she ..said, O Puds, you awt to of seen Benrlys thumb, its all cut and red and I tied it lip with my hankerchiff.

And I uick started to waw.k away, saying, 111- go and get your ink.

George Matthew Adams Daily Talk THINKING SO. A man does the thing he thinks about doing. If he is aimless think ing Only in disconnected stretches he is going to be a constant loser of the very things which he gains. If you think you are- going to be happy or successful, you have taken the lirst step toward being so. The next step is to follow up your thoughts and get the thing done! Every great action was first a the ory a belief. They laughed at Co lumbus. Fulton, Stephenson, Westiftg- house, Edison, Morse. But they didn't laugn after the thing those men difametl about and thought- about, had come true. Ininklng so is what gives nourish ment to the soul. Of course youis .thinking is bound to get off tho tracA It is sure to be wrong at times.

CHAPTER 17. All my life I bad been sort of a hero worshipper. And when I met Keith, hi masterful ways had been one of his attractions. That Keith was autocratic there wasn't the slight est doubt. Rut he was also so good looking, so big- and strong, that be fulfilled any idea of a perfect lover, and of course he would be a perfect husband. Doesn't every girl take that for granted? That even in his courtship he talked more of his love for his sister than of his affection for me, did not im press me unpleasantly. If I thought of it at all, it was that a man who was so good a brother would make a good husband. Then I never had heardNpf a sister making trouble between hus band and wife. It w-as invariably the mother-in-law, in aU the books I had read and in one or two families in our own town, who made the trouble, or at least caused things to be unpleas ant. I planned how I should H'SP. what good times I should have, free from ail household cares, et cetera. I had not been married a month before I would have been willing to clean and scrub if only I could have had a little place all my own- where I could be alone with Keith. I was a sentimental creature when I married.; I used to listen to Bailie and her girl friends talk of their beaux, and envy them their .two or three year that made them eligible. They talked of marrying fo money, "It would be awful to marry a man you didn't love even if he- did have money I said one day, and Bailie answered; "It would be worse to marry a poor man and go without all the lovely thing money can buy." I realize now that Sallie and Beat rice, my other sister, were really wor ried because of the expense they were to father. We owned the house we lived in, but that was all. Father was not well, and when Keith came a-courting, it meant that if I married him there would be one less to care for, -dress and feed. For I was begin ning to chafe at occupying the back ground, and sometimes made mother quite angry because I called Sallie and Beatrice "old maids" and said unpleas ant things about them because, they had pretty clothes and went to parties, while tl had nothing and "rarely was allowed to show myself outside of the home. "It isn't considered the thing for a younger daughter to go out until the older sisters marry," mother ones said to me when I had grumbled. "I suppose if they never marry, I must be an old maid too!" y- "They Will marry, they Vnust." Mother had sighed heavily, and I was repentant at once. I wa naturally affectionate, but I felt I was in the way, that I was doomed to be Cinderella indefinitely. So when Keith came and preferred me to either of my sisters, no one was po surprised as I. I used to build air castles and after I met Keith I let my imagination run riot at times. I forgot his square chin,.' the determination with which he emphasized all he said, and en dowed him with all the perfection I wished the man I loved to possess. When found that I loved him. that the days when I did not see .him dragged heavily, I wss delighted. Love had come to me, the youngest, and the Cinderella of the family. During this period of my life event's lost their identity. Keith 'ex. plained to, father that' he was a very busy man, that he wished to be mar ried at onee. I was pot only willinsr, biit anxious to do as he wished. So my imodest trouspeau' was hurried, and I was married. It was a glorious day In tha fall when we. stood in the parlor at home and the old minister said the words that gave me to Keith. I never thought about the same wards giving Viim if me. Ha seemed even then to belong eo completely ta himself. Hlsl ways were settled to a degree. I found afterward that it had been be cause' of his manner of living. He was really the head of the house as much as if he had been married, had been ever since his sister's husband died. As soon as we had been settled in our rooms a few days I saw I would have to be very careful If I were to keep Keith from being cross with me. I wanted to like his sister, but she held me at arm's length from the be ginning.-" She was cold, unresponsive. It was not long before I knew the reason -she W-as jealous, annoyed that Keith had married. Then eame the- knowledge that he made it pos sible for her to indulge her love of luxury, that he paid most of the ex penses of the house, et eetera, and that she feared my coming would de prive her of what In the seven years thtey had been living together, she had come to consider as her right It was a peculiar situation. One which required more tact than a simply brought up girl of 19 pos sessed. (Tomorrow Sally is indignant) Dorothy Dix Talks BY nOROTHf BIX World's atffhesc Fa!4 Woman Writer. Get 'Sour Proper Rating 2. Now, undoubtedly, self-conceit fs a very necessary adjunct to success, but it must nave strict limitations, wo cannot make other people have con fidence in us unless we believe in our celves, but in the general showdown we have got to give a reason for the faith that is in us. We have got to deliver the goods, and prove to other people that we have got the ability we think we have. Emerson said that we should aim at the stars even if we only hit the barn door, which Is good advice as far as it goes. But after having-aimed at the stars a reasonable length of time and only succeeded in bitting the barn door, common sense would sug gest that we select a mark that was within reach of our aim, and where we could hit the bull's eye every time. There is more honor, as well as more profit, In doing a humble thing well and successfully, than there Is in making an utter failure in attempting to do something high-faluting and ro mantic that we can't do. It is better to make a good loaf of bread than a fioor sonnet: better to be a good actor n the kitclin than a bad actorine on the stage. The woman who is a gifted" amateur muscian, and a figure in her own social circle, is a million times more enviable than the hemi-demi-seml professional singer who thinks herself lucky to get to sing in a res taurant while other people ar gorg ing themselves with food. Every person in the worid who is Trilling to work, can make a good liv ing If only Jie or she win do the thins that is within his or her range of abilities. Our failure) are nearly all the result of our thinking too highly of ourselves. Many a man. for instance, whose whole life is a .nerve-racking struggle on the brink of bankruptcy, could command a handsome salary, and livo in comfort on Easy street, if only he would work for some one else instead of trying to conduct a business of his own. He would be invaluable in de partmental work, w"here he could fol low his own little groove, but he lacks executive ability, and the financial acumen to conduct a business himself. So the womas) who fails as a painter might make a fortune as an artistic dressmaker, where her sense of color and her knowledge of line would en able her to make good dresses Instead of poor pictures. Many a tiresome preacher would make a good black smith. Many a clientless lawyer would succeed as business man, and oh, the numbers of girls behind counters and tvDewriters. whose real vocation is Ithe wash-tub and the gas range! In these days, nobody need lay the flattering unction to his soul of being an unappreciated genius. There ia no such animal. Theatrical managers, editors, business men, everybody is out on a still hunt for talent, for ability, for those who can do any one thing well; and if you can't get a job, or your work is not appreciated, be sure you lack the ability to do what you are trying to do. Two years is long enough to spend in giving yourself' a trial. If by that time you haven't got some tangible evidence of success in your hand, it is a tiD that you have over-valued your self, and need to revise your estimate and try to get your real number. ICcpyrlght 1920. by tbe Wheels! Kjndlcsta tact ON SECOND THOUGHT BY JAY E. HOUSE (From Philadelphia Public Ledger.) The announcement from Washing ton that "President and Mrs. Harding, with some friends, occupied a box at Poli's theater tonight" stirs a reader of the New York Tribune to action. He holds, and very properly, we think, that when the jrresident goes to see a play the name of the play should be given in the connection. We strinz along on the proposition. The slip shod reporting of the present day is galling to an old-timer. Dramatic offerings in Washington are a matter of note and consequence. When we were there, a week or two ago, the leading and most-talked-of play in Washington was "The Bird of Paradise." As we cleverly observed to a gentleman from the pacific coast who had two tickets for one of the performances and was boasting of it, The Bird of Paradise" is a pretty good play the first six times one sees it. After that it is less Intriguing. In a vaudeville theater the other night we saw that sterling performer, "Cap'n" Adrian Constantino Anson. The ''Cap'n'1. is seventy years old, and, comparatively speaking, still a grand ballplayer. We refer to the "Cap'n's" act to advise our co-humorist, Ring Lardner, that those who are booking it make the claim that he wrote it. v If we are any judge of a vaudeville act, and Heaven forbid that we should be, the claim of the booking agency is actionable and Mr. Lardner is entitled to reeovef7. A More Direct Lead. Sir I was amazed to read in your column the preposterous claim of a lady "out West" that Sarah Bern hardt was born and reared at a place called Struthers, O., and I was still .'more surprised that you ""fell" for it. jsow let me nip tnis thing in the bud right quick- Sarah Bernhardt, as her name so plainly indicates, is et Pennsylvania extraction and was born at Emaus, Lehigh county, Pennsyl vania, where she lived until about seventeen years of age. The older In habitants of the place remember her distinctly, and many of her relatives still live in that neighborhood. In fact, the family name of Bernhardt is quite common in Lehigh county. She was, indeed, an unusually bright girl, and her parents, instead of sending her to a finishing schooin the East, decided to send her to Paris to com plete her education. This accounts for the faet that she speaks but little English. But she never forgot her mother tongue, and at least once dur ing each of her American tours she makes it a .rule to visit Emaus, where She spent her happy childhood days. Of these occasions she invariably, by choice as well as of necessity, con verses with her old friends in Penn sylvania Dutch, with but little trace of foreign accent; and her ehildhood acquaintances still call her by her old familiar name of Sally. R. A. S. L We do not pretend to know how much of the testimony in the Stillman divorce case is credible. But we are willing to believe the witness who says he peeped three times into Mrs. Stillman's room in the hotel. That is one of the most highly esteemed of small-town sports and pastimes. The le-makers have decided that hereafter the same peach pie will be served wherever pies are sold. Our own curiosity in the matter is as to whether the peach pie thus served is to be th one with the "gooey" filling. If It Is, We shall continue to erder apple. It Is true that many apple pies are spoiled by cooks who neglect the necessary formality of thoroly cooking the apples before placing them in the pie: but on the whole, the apple pie of commerce grades higher than its blood cousin, the peach. i Our notion as to how an apple pie should be made Is always good for an argument at home. It ought to do as well In the column. The plight of the American soldiers who guard the so-called castled Rhine might be worse. They can't under stand half the conversation that goes on about them and they are not com pelled to listen to aiy.of It. The chilling effect of Mr. Hughes's note on the German cabinet is related in thenews. We shall endeavor to match' the incident with a remin iscence of the campaign of 191,. tt was a warm August day and Mr. Hughes was speaking from the steps of a middle western state capitol. A considerable crowd was parked in the grounds below and adjacent. As we came up to the rim of the crowd we met Bill Libby. He was threading his way In the direction of freedom and comparatrve solitude. "What's vour hurry. Bill?" w asked. V'1'11 be back. he retorted. "I'm Just going home after my overcoat" Evening Story Galloping Dominoes. V i; By WILt T.AMES Pearly did Jimmy Halpia love the rattle of the dice. When, the gallop ing dominoes, as Jimmy called them, cavorted down the clubroom table, sped by his deft fingers; and came to rest with a sis and an ace showing in a "natural." then was the cup of Jimmy's happiness full. Apd he was lucky very lucky. Jimmy held the "Young America club" record for naturals; seven in succession. Tha was a nigiif indeed! Not only had those seven naturals cleaned out the pockets of the rest of the club mem bership, but they had accomplished that result SO early in the evening that the game was out and over and Jimmy taking the air on the side walk with his hat very much on 'one side of his, head, when Mamie Hall eame- home from her stenography lesson over at the "Union" at a quar ter after nine. Jimmy had had a fancy for Mamie for some time. Mamie, knowing Jimmy's reputation better than she knew Jimmy, had not, however, been responsive to his tentative advances. Mamie had no notion of becoming involved with a young man who had earned the neighborhood sobriquet of "Click-finger Jimmy" in recognition-of a well known attribute of the habitual crap shooter. 'i But Jimmy, generously expansive under tbe influence of his winning streak had plumped at Mamie, in the first half minute of their conversa tion an Invitation to go to the Hip podrome next evening and sit in a two dollar seat. "Gee!" exclaimed Mamie. She. did some quick thinking and then she said she'd go. What she thought was that Just going to a show with a feilow once doesn't bind a girl in anything steady and how often does she get a chance at a $2 seat? Now it .is one thing for a girl like Mamie to take up with a lad like Jimmy just for once; and it is an other thing to get rid of him. Mamie had been six weeks now doing this later thing or deluding herself into the belief that she was trying to do it; ana she was no nearer to it than at the beginning. Meantime she had beea to five more shows with Jimmy, and twice more had sat in a $2 seat Vhen Jimmy had made a good winning at the clubroom. Wherefore Mamie had no right to be surprised when Jimmie, bidding her goodnight in the hallway down stairs, didn't let go of her hand, but instead, after swallowing hard- and with a. shade of nervous treble in his usually good baritone voice, said: "Hey, kiddo, whatya say do we make it a go, you and me for good?" If this seems a crass and flippant manner of proposal, remember, please, that over on the east side there is a word so sacred that it is taboo. That word is "love." It Is to be intimated, suggested, proved but never spoken. Right then and there Mamie "would have given much te be able to say, with a clear conscience, "Oh, I dunno mebbe." But Mamie couldn't- Wrhat she said was: "Not so you can notice it, Jimmie Halpin. I ain't marrying any fellow that's got a bug on crap1 shooting. I've saw too much of it. Two dollar seats for a show this week, ana 2 cents' worth of cat meat to eat all next week. You're a sport, and I won't tie up to a man that's going to let a pair of dice decide whether I live in a flat or out in the park!" Tho worst of this answer, from Jimmy's point of view, was that he knew the girl meant it. His soul struggle was violent but brief. "Listen, Mame," he said solemnly, "I got two hundred and a quarter in the bank and forty bucks in my clothes and a Job. Go to church with ma and I give you my solemn I'll never take a chance with a nickel of orjr money on the ivories or any other way." Mamie looked at him for a long ten seconds. "D' you mean that?" she asked breathlessly. "Sure," said Jimmy. And Mamie knew he did. Now, leader, meet Miss Gertie Shane, who lives across the corridor from the Hall family, third floor back, south. Miss Shane is but little pleased at the news of the Halpin-Hall engagement- Consequently she is more intimately sweet to Mamie than here tofore. Meet also Father Hall, given name Edward, who carries a life insurance, and Mother Hall, name of Caroline, an indifferent person. George, one vear Junior to Mamie, completes the Hall family.

Every evening was Jimmy's evening now, ex cept the stenography evenings, and those were partly his, for he met her at the Union and walked home with her. Then came an evening when Jimmy didn't appear at the Union and Mamie walked home alone, i It seemed- very strange and lonesone. Mamie was in ne mood for frivolous converse with mere girls when she found Gertie Shane standing at the street door of the tenement house, and would have passed on witt) a perfunc tory. "Hello, Gert," it Gert had per mitted It. But Gertie, effusively friendly, put her arm around Mamie's waist and climbed the first flight -f stairs by her side. At the head of the stairs she suddenly- oh, very suddenly- bethought herself of something. "Oh, Mame," she said, "come along back to the window and see what doing!" And willy-nilly Mamie had to go along. From just that one window, out of all the windows in the big barrack of a tenement, one could look squarely into the Young America clubroom, which was at the rear of the cigar store downstairs. That is. one could, if the curtain were up; and tonight the out tain had. be n forgotten. There was a long table, and half a dozen of the sporty boys of. the club were gathered about it. And In tise very middle of the picture stood Jim my HaHpin, with a broad grin on his broad, face, rolling 'era and snapping his fingers, and gathering up the dimes and quarters as enthusiastically as if there were no such thing as a girl or a promise in tha world. Ma mie watched the spectacle for the space of three long breaths, the while Gertie Shane watched -her with an evil joy. "Pooh!" remarked Mamie. "I'm going along up.- Good night!" And in her own tiny coop of a roost she cried herself to sleep. It was the "very next night that Jimmy got his. He called with a proposition having to do with the movie' theatre around the corner,. Mamie, a bit pale and quite scorn ful, spoke plainly. "I'm off you for good, Jimmy," she said. "There ain't any use talking. You been telling me you just dropped in down there in the clubroom and looked on now and then. But I seen you myself seen you shooting and seen you taking in the coin. You and me Is alt thru." Mamie's grammar might have grown even worse if she had talked any longer. But she didn't- She shut the door in Jimmy's face. Ensued four wretched daysj four empty, dreary days for Mamie; four gloomy, somber Jays for Jimmy; four days in which young George Hall looked askance many times at the pale, stricken face of his sister. Then George lay for Mamie down at the front door after supper. "Lookit, sis," he said, "you got Jimmy wrong." "Shut up!" exclaimed Mamie, whose nerves were at the breaking point. "Ain't I got eyes?" ''Yes and you've got ears, too, and you're going to listen. Here's what happens. I get to rolling 'em and Jimmy's lookin on. I lose my couple of bucks and then I well. I begins to dig into the twenty-two that the old gent give me to hand to Saunders, the Insurance man, to pay for his insurance. And the first thing I know it's all gone but a single bone. That's where Jimmy comes in. He grabs the dollar and he shoves me out and he says, 'Lemme shoot "em for you!'-1 And he shoots a natural, and from that he goes on up till he's got the old man's twenty-two back and he" hands it to me and tells me he'll break my jaw if he finds me rolling 'em again. He saved my neck, that' what he did and youre.a bum sport. Mame, if you can him for that!" "Gcsh!" exclaimed Mamie. "Why didn't he tell me so?" "Aw. can't you "see anything? How could he?" J "That's so." agreed Mamie. "Say', you hustle .on In there; and tell hisa I want see him.

EMAHIZER-SPIELMAN FURNITURE COMPANY 517-519 Kansas Avenue B MAY ENLARGE IT German Cabinet May Include One of People's Party. Recess of Two Weeks Taken by Reichstag. Berlin, May 13. Resolutions urging an enlargement of the present German cabinet so tbat it may include a repre sentative of the German People's party have been adopted by the parliament delegation of the Democratic party, which was divided on the question of acceptance or rejection of the allied ultimatum regarding reparations. Dr. Gustave Stresemann is leader of the German People's party, which includes a number of the principal figures in financial and industrial circles in this country. The Democrats emphasize the de sirability pf enlisting- of national ele ments regardless of their previous at titude on the ultimatum issue and suggest recruiting ministers, not only from the People's party, but other economic and financial agencies will ing to support the new government in the task of carrying out the repara tions conditions. v Recess of Two Weeks. A recess of two weeks is being taken by the reichstag and during this time the government hopes to perfect the organization of the new cabinet. Doc tor Rosen, German minister to Hol land, is being urged to accept the for eign ministry. Altho not active po litically, he is nominally counted a Democrat. The finance and restora tion Dortfolios also are to be filled. Doctor Wirth, the chancellor, has conferred with Doctor Peters, com missioner for disarmament, regarding thi Ravarian situation which the cen tral government is obliged to untangle during the next six weeks. The Ba varian government has not as yet given Berlin any definite assurance it will immediately proceed to disband the citizen guard, and reports from Munich indicate the coalition parties, constituting the present Bavarian min istry, continue their attitude of op position. General von Seeckt, chief of staff, has ordered the disarmament of fortifications along the eastern frontier. Doctor Goeppert, director of the peace section of the foreign office, has resigned. He was a close adviser of Doctor Simons, former minister of foreign affairs. 25 YEARS' AGO IN TOPEKA From the Coltrauia of THE TOPEKA STATE JOUBNAIi May 13, 1R&6.

The ruling of i former Attorney General Palmer that beer may be prescribed as medicine, will never become effective, Chairman Volstead of the house judiciary com mittee, declared today. Should the new internal revenue commissioner try to put the "medicinal beer" ruling into effect, congress in a few days, will Jam thru legislation prohibiting its prescription, Volstead predicted. Volstead made these statements as he opened the second day of hearings on his supplement to the original Vol stead law. One section of the supple ment would knock out the medicinal beer ruling. Doctors Say It Isn't Medicine. Beer was repudiated as a medicine 'today by two members of the medical profession testifying in the hearing before the house Judiciary committee on Chairman Volstead's bill to stop leaks in the dry law. Not only did the doctors assert that they never had prescribed beer, but both said that in long practices neither ever had seen it used in that way. The physcians, Dr. Howard A. Kel Iey, a surgeon of Johns Hopkins hos pital, and Dr. James M. H. Rowland, professor at the University of Mary land, declared they knew of no dis ease for which "beer was a curative. Both expressed "humiliation" that the question had been "put up" to the medical profession INTERKST IN" ROGERS CONTEST. Seventy-One Papers Handed in by K. 17. Students. Lawrence, Kan., May 13.

Rained I'rogs at Junction City. Junction City, Kan., May 13. For twenty-four hours it rained frogs here, at least that would be the reason as signed in the ancient times, for the plague of green croakers which de scended upon this city following the recent heavy rains. Millions of them, one would judge from the great dis turbance their nightly concerts cre ates, are concentrated in a low por tion of ground near the business sec tion of the city. Their chorus may be heard for more than a half mile and the noise drowns out that of the switch engines in the nearby railroad yards. The steady rain softened the earth so that the frogs buried under the ground were able to crawl out. Sleep Saved His Life. Scammon. Kan., May 13.

It hurt me to know that the lads of our army didn't appreciate the an tique beauty of France s sunny-land, When I would attempt to tell them of 'this wonderful country we are in, with its famous cathedrals and, other beau ties,' they would reply, 'Oh, we're filled up on cathedrals, .let's get back to the good old United States.'

We must make this country beautiful in order that our youths can recognize beauty when they see it. The love of a child for its parents is built up in the. child. Love is a fabric composed of the threads of take and give, and drawn again and again until the finished product appears. A town is the same way.

I hope that in the future eery girl and boy can say, "This is my home town isn't It beautiful? That love must be built-up in them.'

'Washington. May 12. iA table showing what sums Jhad been expend ed for railway operation expense and taxes from 191 7. to 1930, inclusive, was submitted to the t seriate interstate commerce committee oday by Julius Kruttschnitt,- chairman of the board of Southern Pacific, who appeared for conclusion of .bis crossr-.examinaxion in connection with the cornruittee inquiry into the railroad situation 4 of the country. !Th.et total of operating ex penses aria taxes for thjs jailroad," ac cording fo,. the table,, rose .from 13,043,000,000 in 1817 to 6, 047,000, 000 in 1920. Salaries of general of ficers S the railroads in 1920 totalled 147.119.45 as against S3. 605.755. 516 for labor. The exhibit also showed tljat whereas In 1917 55 cents out of qvery. dollar expended, tor operation and taxes went for wages of employes, this had1 increased in 1920 to 59 cents. Salaries of general,, officers on- the other hand, it showed, decreased from 1.15 cents to: nothing .78 cents out of each dollar. The salaries of division officers remain stationary. .."The -classification of general offi cer," Jtfr.KuttsrjLnitt erxplj1ined, "is that of the interstate, commerce com mission, andiiclud executive of ficers arid oh'er o'fficers ana, their as sistant's having general supervision over the affairs of the company or of the operations of a department for either the entire road or a grand division of a road, Division officers include superintendents and assistants, trainmasters, roadmasters, bridge or building foremen, master carpenters, stea,rp. heat and lighting foremen, i inspectors, etc." Tabic of Distribution.

It is already esti iriafecl a $1,200,000,000 on the basis of claims paid and those in process of adjustment. If the railroads win their contention on claims yet pending, the deficit will go to $2,500,000,000, Cummins sa:d. Personally, he esti mated that it would be $1,800,000,000 at reast. VThis situation challenges the per manence of private operations and control of the roads," said Cummins. CUT FOR EXPRESS EMPLOYES American Company Announcement In volves 52 Persons In Topeka.

10 THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL FRIDAY EVENING, MAY 13, 1921 HE PRAISES GAGE Lorado Taf t, Noted Sculptor, Commends Topekan's Work. "Difficult Subject Handled in Ingenious Way." APPROVES PLANNING BOARD Should Be Able to Obtain Beau tiful Results, He Says. Episcopal Church to Co-operate In Civic Improvements. The bronze memorial statue bein? made by Merrell Gage, sculptor from Topeka, as a tribute to Capt. Phil Bil lard, local aviator who lost his life in th war, has won the enthusiastic ap proval of Lorado Taft, the foremost American sculptor, who spoke in To peka today. "I think you are getting a pern of art when you place that memorial in Topeka," Taft said in speaking to the city planning board at noon at the Chamber of Commerce. "Gape has handled a most difficult subject in an Vrig:nious way.' The Billard memorial is to be a gift to the city from the Rotary club and will be placed in Memorial Hall. The statue, which Gage has called 'Klight." will be completed July 1. "The most of our cities are so deadly monotonous," Taft said, when talking to the planning boa rI members. "A planning board is something for which a town should be commendea and should feel itself fortunate in having, for such a board can plan to make the city distinctly beautiful. With such an attractive city as you have here, your planning board should be able to ftttain beautiful results."

LOCK TO CHICAGO Sad Eyes of Nation Focused on Oais of Circat Yolsteadian Desert. Chicago, May 13. Sad eyes of the nation today were focused upon Chicago the oasis in the great Vol steadian desert. tHiver T. Remmers. attorney for the Anheuser-Busch Brewing com pany, St. Louis, put this in the head lines following his testimony before the house judiciary committee in which he charged real beer was being sold openly in Chicago. "You said a stein full, Oliver," was the way his expose was received here by patrons of the backslidden "dry" cafes. "Here's how!" Remmers's demand for a congres sional investigation did not worry saloon-keepers here who haven't handled near beer for two months. "Drink hearty, boys, they're just jealous of us," was the frequent re mark from behind the mahogany. Large steins from four to six per cent beer were still being sold today at from twenty-five to thirty cents a copy. The edition was large. No proof of "good fellowship" was de manded in most cafes. During the last few weeks, the "good old days" have come another step nearer the great neighborhood habit of inelegantly "shooting the can" to the corner saloon has re turned. The only difference is that a good sized "can" costs about seventy cents instead of a 'dime. During Remmers's testimony, which was presented in the hearing on whether beer should be sold as medicine, he read a statement from August Bnsch, head of the Anheuser Busch company, which said the policy of the company is "beer for all or beer for none." The policy of Chicago Is "beer for all." TWENTY-FIVE ARE TREATED Rev. P. C. Nelson Begins V'ork at Swedish Church. Twenty-five sick and afflicted per sons were treated by the Rev. P. C.

KEEP BOYS OFF STREETS Chief Swallow Advises Parents to Pre vent Ball Playing. A request that parents put a stop to their children playing ball in the public streets was made today by Chief Swallow. The fact that one boy recently was killed and that others have been in jured by motor cars while playing In the streets, was cited by Chief Swal low as the foundation for his request. Nearly every day complaints come to the police station. Motorists and pedestrians have an equal right to the streets," the chief said. "Sometimes we find one and sometiifies the other in error in case of an accident. But the streets really should not be used for a playground, and If parents will eo-operate with us in keeping their children out of the streets, It will doubtless prevent many accidents and perhaps save lives. I want to urge every parent to consider this question very seriously." TROOPS MAY BE CALLED. Soldiers at' Camp Sherman Ready to Mve Into Minso County. Camp Sherman, O.. May 13.

The house was surround ed and every man held himself ready for battle.

Their Styles Are Altogether Different, He Says. New York, Moy 13. Battling Levinsky, former title holder of the light heavyweights, is the only boxer who has met both Jack Dempsey and Georges Carpentier. His. opinion of the pair who will meet-July 2 for the world's champion ship ought .to be worth something. "The one who gets the first wallop across will win," the battler said to day. "Dempsey knocked me out in three rounds and it took Carpentier four rounds to do it but that doesn't mean that Dempsey can hit harder. He got his opening first, that Is all. "Carpentier can hit just as hard as Dempsey and he carries a knock out punch in both hands. "The style of Dempsey and Carpen tier is altogether different. "Dempsey is a rushing. Jabbing, close fighter, the most powerful and aggressive I ever met, and I mixed with about every good heavyweight in the class. The champion has the most wicked body blows of any boxer I ever met. His most wicKed and punishing blow is a port jab that pounds the very life and all the energy out of an opponent I know it because I felt it from the very first round. Dempsey is the best fighter I ever met. "Carpentier's style is that of a boxer. He' is equally as fast as the cnampron and altho he is not as rugged and strong as Demosev. his better boxing ability offsets the point and in addition he has a terrific punch. "If Dempsey fights his usual fight. it is a question, however, if Carpen tier will be able to box. Fighting ciose, 11 is impossible to get a guard against Dempsey's short body punches. He drives into the midsection and then shifts to the law. "Dempsey also has more endurance than he is generally credited with."

You get power and vitality from milk. The greatest nerve restorer and tissue-builder known. It is better than more than half of what you con sume thru the mistaken idea that food is something to be chewed. MILK IS GOOD for men because it is an especially effective stimulant as well as a sustaining food. It cures that fatigue of mind due to food folly. When worn and tired you cram yourself with heavy foods beyond the body needs. Nature does its best, but your wrhole system becomes clogged and poisoned. Lowered vitality, irritabijjty and nervous collapse is the final result. f "Here's to Your Health" It will clear or TRY THE MILK JMET for two weeks. You cannot suffer, your brain, give you a steady hand and boundless energy. Do you have stomach trouble of. any kmd? Drink lots of milk. Do you suffer from sleeplessness or nervous troubles?

The executive council of the American Federation of Labor in session here has declined a request from the international federa tion or trade unions to reconsider its action in severing relations with the European trade union! movement, it was learned today. President Samuel Gompers of the federation has been instructed to no tify the secretary of the Internationale at Amsterdam that American labor cannot affiliate with the Internationale because of its revolutionary activities. The council was unanimous in the pro posal to reiterate that American labor rejects any movement that "promul gates a policy calling for revolutionary action with 'socialization' of industry as Its objective. Under the present system of dues, labor officials said, the federation -would be paying more than t20,H00 annually to the (Internationale which would utilize such funds for revolu tionary propaganda advocating the overthrow of the governments of Eu rope as well as the republic of the United States. If the Internationale modifies its policy, it was stated, the federation probably will again affiliate with it. The question of American la bor's attitude toward tfte soviet gov- ernment of Russia was the chief topic discussed by the. council today. BUILD A BIG GREENHOUSE Hubbard Gardens Company lncorpor- J atd at $75,000 in Topeka. Topeka is to be the location of a plant for the growing of cut flowers and hot house vegetables for Topeka and its trade territory in the near fu- ture. A corporation known as the Hub- bard Gardens company, capitalized at $75,000, has been organized and will immediately commence construction of greenhouses on a tract of ground three-quarters of a mile north of Gar field park in North Topeka. Roses. 1 carnations and vegetables will be the principal output of the plant. Arlo Hubbard is president and treasurer of the corporation; C. E. Hubbard, his father, vice president; and K. L. Loveless, secretary. The principal stockholders are the Hub-j bards, father and son; W. O. Ander-: son. T. C. Whiteker, C. A'. Fleming, i A. L. Stone and T L. Loveless. Many of the cut flowers sold in To- j ueka now, come from Chicago. Only a limited supply cn...es from as near as Kansas City, and the flowers grown by local greenhouses will not supply a t fraction of the demand. j Arlo Hubbard is to have charge of j thp plant. He has been connected i with his father in the florist and seed dealer's plant of the former, for many years, and is a graduate of the Topeka Business college and a former student at the Kansas State Agricultural col-j lege. From 1900 to 1914 he was with j the "YV. W. Barnard companyof Chi- I capo. "g?I5 X0RIIS Lift Off with Fingers Doesn't hurt "Freezone" on a bit!

"It seemed like every thing I -ate would sour and form a hard lump right in the pit of my stomach. My kidneys worried me a lot and I had a stubborn case of con stipation. I was subject to terrible headaches and often got so dizzy I would nearly topple over. I could not half Lleep, often lying awake till midnight. Naturally, I was all run down and I felt so weak and played out that I could hardly do any work." ''Well, before I finished my first bottle of Tanlac my appetite had come back in full force and I was eatlnK things I hadn't been able to touch. And now I feel brimful of new life and strength and am well and "healthy a a man could want to be. I sleep fine and at wtrk I don't have to ask anybody any odds.
