!, Distinguished Congressman.

Congressman Washington Gardner.
of Michigan, and his brother, Capt. G.
Y. Gardner, of Piedmont, spent last
Monday in Hot Springs. The former
is n prominent member of congress
and is upon the appropriation commit
tee TO which we are indebted for rec
ommending appropriating the funds
for the National Sanitarium. Mr.. Card
. ner. through Congressman Martin, was
made acquainted with the National
Sanitarum measure early in the ses-
sion and became an ardent supporter
of the measure His visit here has
convinced him that he made no mis-
take by favoring the bill, and he is
most enthusiastic over its location
here. for he was delighted with Hot
Springs, the scenery and the invigor-
ating. refreshing atmosphere Of the
Hills, and believes that the National
Sanitarium will do all for the veterans
that has been claimed for it. He was
especially impressed with the magniti-
cence of the location. He was on the
ground the first day that the sod was
broken for the great institution. In
speaking of securing the Sanitarum
here Congressman Gardner remarked:
''You may we'll give the credit for get
ting it to Congressman Martin. for it
was his persistency, alertness and the
able manner in which he handled the
measure, that brought about its vic
tory" Mr.. Gardner says that Mr..
Martin has the confidence of the mem
bers of congress and already has an
influence that is surprising to the older
members. He predicts bright career
for MIR Martin in congress and says
that he will not only be of great service
to his state but to the nation as we'll.
Congressman Gardner was an old
time friend of Mrs. S. j. Wood and
daughter, Mrs. j. A. Stanley, who great
ly enjoyed a visit with him. He left
Monday evening for his home at AL
bion. Mich, promising to come again
and remain longer.

Good Points In DOGS.

Among the many canine qualities
worthy of imitation lover Of the
-four footed brothers" emphasizes
their contentad resignation to the cir
cumstances of life Dogs. he says, do
not go about trying to do good to other
dogs by urging them to bark in the
same key and bite with the same tooth
as themselves, nor, which is a mcrciful
provision of nature, do they become
bored by the people With whom their
lot is east and want to try new mas
ter every few months. Whatever the
disadvantages of their homes may be.
they stand by them and make cheer
full best of it. Over and again a dog
puts his heart before his outraged
stomach and lets his affections domi-
nate his indigestion rather than desert
his master for a better board. Many a
master, concludes the dog champion,
would do we'll to emulate in points like
these the meanest of his "little yellow
curS"

guests. "They are the Yankees of Por-

He indicated group Of Brazilians,
consisting of prosperous sugar plant
