Bombarding stomach with hot bis

the fortitications TO give way. Then
how to build back on good food is
worth knowing.
A man in Factoryville, Pa, attacked
his stomach in about this way and
and says: ''The sign of surrender was

of the Ohio Legislature for Senator
Foraker to succeed himself, can
not comprehend
Representative Guerln of Erie coun.
ty put forward the Foraker candidate,
Aaron II. Price of Athens. He hotly
denounced the promoters Of the talk
that Foraker was seeking to retire Han
ma and begged the new members not
to be intmidated by 1t. There was an
almost deathlike silence as the roll
was called.
The members walked down the aisle
and deposited their ballots in waste
paper basket held by one of the tellers.
The suspense as they were taken out
one at n time, opened, and called aloud,
was nerve-racking. McKinnon led
from the start and was never headed.
His thirty fifth ballot came out just af-
ter Prices 2Sth. A wild cheer from
his followers marked the announce
mont of the winning vote. When the
last one was called Price arose and
moved to make the nomination of his
successful opponent unanimous. The
vote stood McKinnon 3S: Price 80.
McKinnon made brief speech advo-
eating the passage of as little legisla-
tion as possible and only that which
appeared to be absolutely necessary.
All this time Price was standing pale
and trembling near the clerks desk.
There were calls for him and he an
swered, IL had the pledges but | did
not get the votes, and votes count he
cried, seemingly trying to reprcss the
disappointment and rage that filed his
heart. He stood glaring toward the
southern section of the hail and MEM
bers began to twist their heads about
uneasily. "The man who keeps his
pledge" continued Price, in a high
pitched voice. "will make good and
useful member of this body. The man
who has not honor enough to keep his
pledge. will not
when Price gives his pledge he
keeps it, he continued. still glaring in
the direction Of n number of members
who come from his section of the state,

Gus A. Hanna to the United States

friends need not be hunting around in
Athens county two years from now,
If Price and his friends have u candl-
date" Price strobe to his seat and
dropped into it heavily, while faint
cheer went up.
The rest of the work of the caucus
was easy. The only man on the Han
ma slate who failed to go through was
c. r. Stollsmith, who wanted to be

been passed around, py oversight.
The Senate caucus. was comparative
ly quiet. The Hanna people put up

DON'T WORRY.

There are times when the clouds roll
thick ana fast
And the sky is black with distress.
But worry DER trouble that's present
or past
Never made the trouble the less,
There are times when everythjnr's
looking blue,
And everythlng's all in a furry,
And nothing was ever made brighter
When you punished yourself by
Wen assume that the outlooks S rlpe
with despair
And there's never a cheerful ray
or light to dispel the clouds every
where,
That deepen the somber way;
But, assuming all this, there's nangbt
to gain
BY useless weeping and waillng;
You'll bring neither sunshine nor cool
ing rain
by storming, frettlng and railing.
There's better way when your trials
roll thick
When the world seems fun of trou-
BILE
Than letting the dart cut in to the
quick
And making your trouble double.
For trouble despises smiling face
And feeds on furry and scurry--
Just bury your griefs for a little
space
And look straight ahead-don't
worry!

Times.

He Will be Speaker Of
the House.
Foraker Won Out In the
Senate.
A Sensational Scene In the House
Caucus.

Columbus o., jan 6.-The complete
success of the Hanna people In organ
izing the House and the success of the
Forakerites in organizing the Senate,
of the Legislature. Saturday, does not
mean an equal division, by any means.
The House positions are more import
ant than those afforded by the Fora
ker candidates i'm the Senate. but that
is not the whole story. The chief fact
is. that McKinnon. of Ashtabula coun-
House is not a Hanna man. Indeed,
both Hanna and Dick opposed his
nomination as Representative in Ash
tabula county, last summer, but he
won and Ii. S. Means, or Geneva, the
Dick candidate and all the candidates
for places OH the county ticket whom
Hanna and Dick favored We're beat
ell. So in the contest over the organ
ization of the Legislature Hanna went
to McKinnon, not McKlnnon to Han
ma But without Hanna and Dick, Nc
Kinnon could not have won, and he
undoubtedly knew it.
There is another odd fact in con-
nection with McKinnon's candidacy
which time may develop into one Of
much Importance. 1t Is, that he was the
candidate of Harry Daugherty whom
Hanna defeated for the gubernatorial
nomination two years ago. McKin-
non and Daugherty are the closest Of
friends, and Daugherty is not the
friend of Hanna.
Burgess l.. McElroy, nominated for
clerk of the House, was supported by
both Hanna and Foraker men, to n
large extent. 1t was his personal fol-
lowing which gave him the victory.
The House caucus selected Allen of
Fulton to preside. Taking his seat he
said the results should be abided ny
even though there was friendly
scrap" during the proceedings. Thom-
as, of Huron. moved for secret bal
lot. 1t was expected this would bring
row, as the Fornkerites had been
bowling that they wanted ''show
down so as to mark the TRAITORS" "
But their talk amounted to nothing,
as they allowed the motion to go
| through without objection.
Ralph ID. Cole, of Findlay, launched
the name of McKinnon. "The most
potent argument that his opponents
are using" said he. sis that If he is
elected 1t will humiliate Senator For
aker. embarrass him in the United
States Senate, and undermine his pow
er as national leader. BY what pro-
cess of reasoning they can construe
humiliation from a unanimous vote

York, Is so well pleased with an ad-
dress delivered by Mr.. VIM. f. King,
Of that city. to the Board of Real Els
tate Brokers, that 1t has caused 1t to
/ be published In full and circulated
quite freely about the country. Among
other things, Mr.. King said;
II believe that this city should be
governed not by the vicious nor by
the corrupt, nor by the politicians and
those who follow them blindly. This
result cannot be reached by preaching,
by essays, nor by the theories of pro-
fessors. Political reform alone will
not clean up this city and keep 1t
clean.
What Is vital is reform in its bust
ness methods, that will hold your pub
lie servants to u strict account for
the money that they spend.
"To spend your money Is what they
are there FOR, and for nothing else.
II is your part to know whether they
spend it well or whether they waste
1t. 1t will be wasted just so long as
blind business methods permit 1t to be
blindly spent. The condition Is that
twice as much is spent as ought to be
spent for the results achieved. You
know nothing of what 1t goes for, and
you cannot find out. Visit any de-
partment, seek to learn anything about
details and you will receive such lesson
in municipal management as will open
your eyes. You are constantly crying
out against this condition. but you
never really do anything to change IT..
II care not whom you put into office;
go TO the polls when you choose, boil
over with Indignation, put in a new
man each election If you see fit, but
the check Is to see that your public
servants, whether new or old, do their
duty at all times. You may be certain,
however, that most of them will not
and the rest cannot do their full duty
until proper business system puts
all outlays to thorough test and sub
iects the acts of those who spend to
