PLUMB NEVER TIRED
KANSAS STATESMAN A MARVEL
OF ENDURANCE.
Story Told by Senator Vest Well illua-
trates His Physical Powers-Nlghts
Enjoyment Never lnterfered w.sn
Days Duty.

Senator Plumb of Kansas was q
physical giant, athletic and ceaseless
worker, as well as tireless, says a
ritter in the Los Angeles Times. One
of his assistants was as large as he
was and as good worker; but once
n three or four months he would
give way to an inordinate thirst for
beer, which incapacitated him for
work four or five days, or sometimes
whole week. On one of these 'occa-
sions, when Senator Plumb particular
ly needed him, the Senator introduced
a resolution in the Senate forbidding
the sale of any kind of liquor to en-
ployes Of Senators or Of the Senate,
and he delivered an impassioned
speech in favor of the resolutions.
The preceding evening Senator
Plumb had been dallying bit with
wine, but that part of the story was
best told by Senator Vest of Missouri,
who said: II think that my friend
Plumb has greater powers of endur-
ance than any man have ever known
and he demonstrates that fact in his
everyday life. For example, last night
Plumb and Malone and Hatton and
John Chamberlin and few other
friends spent considerable time eating
and drink and smoking, and finally
we entered upon little game of draw.
Before l realized it the clocks In
Chamberlin's were striking 5 o'clock,
and the game was brought to close.
| went home and left orders to be
called at IL o'clock, because it was
calendar day in the Senate, and
wanted to be there at the opening Of
the session at noon, to look after
particular bill that l had on the cal
endar. / was awakened, had my bah
and breakfast and reached the Sen
ate just in time for my duty. | met
Plumb at the door, and he told me
that he had been at work all morn
ing on his correspondence, but that he
was not tired.

ing and waiting for my turn, and
fell fast asleep. l slept for fully an
hour. and might have slept longer
but for an awful dream. l dreamed
mat ] was sitting at my desk, unable
to get up, and the capitol building
was on fire. | could see the flames
all around me. The marble stones
were burning, the Goddess of Liberty
On the dome, although of bronze, was
all afiame. The capitol was sur
rounded by fire engines, many of them
having come from Baltimore and Phil
adelphia. I heard the captains of the
firemen shouting their orders and
tried to call for help, but l could not.
Finally, as the flames crept closer and
all around me, all of the noises OF
the engines and the firemen and the
flames were condensed into one awful
roar. This continued, until it seemed
to me like one tremendous human
voice. Moreover, that great big voice
began to sound familiar to me. 1t
seemed to me as though out of it's
awful roaring l might expect that
voice to frame the words Vest,
raise YOU or Vest, l call you This
awful voice finally awakened me; and.
mirabile dictu, there stood Plumb, as
fresh as a daisy, delivering temper
ance speech"

BEAUTIFUL WOMEN
HOW THEY MAINTAIN THE CHARMS
OF THEIR SEX.
the Importance that Attaches to the Care
OF tho Blood One Wants Bright Eyes
and a Clear Complexion.

OF tho Blood If One Wants Bright Eyes
and a Clear Complexion.
Every sensible woman naturally wishes
to appear attractive She knows the value
of bright eyes, delicate complexion and
lively spirits. She knows also that
good health is at the basis of her charms,
and that good blood is the source of good
health.
Miss Mamie Conway has complexion
which is the admiration Of all who know
her. Asked if she could make any sug-
gestions that would be helpful to others
less fortunate, she said
"My complexion would not have
pleased you, if you had seen it two years
ago. 1t was then about as bad rs it
could be, and it gave me a great deal Of
dissatisfaction. If you want good
complexion you must take care Of yol r
health, especially of the condition Of
your blood. My health was at that time
completely broken down. was nervous,
had frequent headaches, a torpid liver
md great deal of pain in that region.
I suffered also from indigestion. 1t was
clear that my blood was in bad condition,
for pimples broke out all over my face. 4"
eft is hard to realize that, for there
isn't tho slightest trace of such blem-
ishes now"
1T was unfortunately quite other
wise then, and long time passed before
I found anything that gave me any re.
lief. 1 became very weak and listless.
The doctors medicine did me no good
and took n number Of highly recon-
mended tonics with 10 better result
AS soon, however, rs began TO use Dr.
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People my
complexion cleared up, and after had
taken two boxes there was not sign of
a pimple left OH my face. My cheeks
became rosy, gained flesh and have had
perfect health ever since"
Rosy cheeks and sparkling eyes are
merely signs ofhealthy blood. They have
