liver is cataleptic, or knocking
night and day; who hates his
own relation, cause his stom-

are on vacation, with a case of
wanderluSt:
Hambone hambone, and Oh,
for boyhood scenes. Hambone,
bambone, how much to me it
means. My stomach's in rebel
lion, my liver and my spleen, and
yet I look for hambone, with a
mess of mustard green's"
His mind reverts to eating, in
a most persistent way; respon-
sive to the meeting, of ribs and

pickle, and dassent eat a thing,
of vitals and the victuals we may
hear him sing:
Hambone, hambone. and Oh,

hambone, this appetite annoys.
My stomach's in rebellion-how
much to me it means, just when
I long for hambone, and mess

When you think of indigestion
think of Kodol. for it is without
doubt the only preparation that
completely digests all classes of
food And that is what you need
when you have indigestion or
stomach trouble = something
that will act promptly but thor
oughly; something that will get
right at the trouble and do the
work itself for the stomach by
digesting the food that you eat,
and that is Kodol. 1t is pleas

The opponents of Senator Long
have the pride of the people of
Kansas to contend with The ac-
tive and leading part taken by
Senator Long on the railroad rate
bill, his prominent place in the
legislation for reciprocity and
the confidence shown in him by
President Roosevelt as well as
by his colleagues in the senate,
have made him one of the big
men among the younger sena-
tors. A new senator would have
to begin at the bottom and
whether he could equal Longs
record is a question of doubt; at
any rate it would take six years
for Kansas to reach that stand
ing in the senate of the United
States which the state now has
with Senator Long. Kansas
wants to be ranked with the
states which have able and infiu-
entail senators. In order to sue
coed in this. Kansas will not view
with favor the suggestion of a
change.

they have heart trouble when the
fact is that the whole trouble lies

900 and $4,000 deaths and 2.0o0.-
900 injured IL the accident record
in the United States during the past
year among working men. according
to a bulletin on accidents issued by
the bureau Of labor. OF those en-
ployed in factories and workshops
probably the most exposed cases are
the workers in iron and steel. Fatal
accidents among electricians and
electric line man and coal miners
are declared to be excessive. while
railway train men were killed in
the proportion Of 7.46 deaths to
each 1000 employees.
The bulletin declares that much
more could be done for the protection
of the workmen, but It is neglected
though many and far-reaching Inn
provements have been introduced Ii
factories during the past decade.
1t is pointed out that the posi-
bilities for successful accident pre-
vention have been clearly demon
strated in the experience of foreign
countries. "In granting" the bulle
tine declares, that underlying con
ditions in European countries arr

human life is wasted and vas'

cal impairment which has a yer!

nation as a whole"
It is insisted that It should not bt
