HOUSE.
Not for years has an appropriation
bill been 80 vigorously debate in the
House as was the naval appropriation bill
today. Conservative" REGARDED sd-
vocsles of "grester navy" as seeking
to entice the country from it's path of
peace 10 the trescherous course CT war;
believers 10 the administration policy Of
large increase 10 the navy declared
Congress must this year be libeysl to the
navy or the honor of the flag and coun-
try will be endangered.
Mr.. Gregg, a member of the naval
committee which cut tine administr1-
tons recommendation from four TO two
bstlleships, said he did not believe in
building "grester navy" to encourage
lingo and bullying spirit 10 this coun-
try. He declared that IS soon as RpOse-
welt had settled on one policy for the
navy, he unsettled C1rgrtss by settling
on new one. The Texan said "Tar
talk" made him tired. Last year ii WAS

featuring war talk for in dustrial pur-
poses.
Mr.. Richmond P. Hobson addressed
the House in advocacy of sn appro-
priation for four monster battleships.
As to economical objections TO four bst-
ileships, Captain Hobson said critics
would do better TO criticize rather the
appropriation for the administration
and maintenance OF the Navy Depart
ment rather than the construction plan.
He expressed belief that 1t would be
easy to man the new ships.
Chairman FCss, of the naval commit
tee. cautiously called Mr.. Hobson's at
tenlion to the fact that the ! i'll did not
provide for the manning OF the proposed
ships. Mr.. Hobsop acknowledged that.
TIE next time a member rose to ask
question be insisted that queries must be
pertinent.
Mr.. Gregg (dem. Tex asked If the
Albanian did not know that that Nsvy
Department had been unable to man
what vessels it possesses.
'fThe gentleman does not know any
thing of the sort" shouted Mr.. Hobson,
as be spraug forward With clenched fists.
Republicans and democrsts alike, caught
by the spirit Of the speaker, cheered him,
and the galleries, jsmmed to the doors
with admirers OF the young congress-
man, accepted the opportunity to express
a roaring approval of the democratic de-
fender OF the RooSevelLian naval policy.

The task OF replying to the war speech
Of Mr.. Hobson fell TO MIR. Burton, the
great peace advocate, who, following
Roosevelt in all else, opposes his naval
policy. A big navy in this country,
he said, .gould be interpreted by the
world as our arming, not for peace, but
for empire.
With the opening up Of the snbma-
rine scandal already TO his credit, Mr..
LilIey startled the House by revealing
more family skeletons from the CLOSETS
of the naval sffairs committee, Of which
be is a member. He charged that there
had been lsmeutable Interpretations
of 500, 600, 900 of public funds and gross
extravaganza 10 providing foi navy

Annrchlst Plot Efustrated.

Paris, April IL A half dozen addi-
lonal arrests have been made today in
connection with The May Fay "carni-

mitted by the police to have been the
most formidable of is kind ever un-
covered in Paris. The cart loads of
bombs seizsd was sufii Gent, experts
say, to have blown up half Of Paris.
What worries the police Is the fear that
there may be another or perhaps ssversl

have not yet captured will attempt 10

Partisan Beauty Aid.

Now it's the face stretch. This new
est aid to beauty has become the rage
in Paris and doubtless will gain wide
vogue in the United States. 1t is guar
anteed to make the average woman
past thirty look ten years younger. The
best of 1t is you can do it yourself. 1t
consists Of stretching the skin Of the
face toward the top Of the head. OF
course that makes folds, but they are
hidden in the hair, and the face is left
as smooth as aschoolgirl's. It's simple
enough, yet it requires care and pa
tience. Begin at the base Of the throat
and rub gently upward until the hands
meet on the crown. Don't rub the nose.
Let the hands part far enough to slide
on each side of 1t. But the cheeks must
be pushed upward, and so must the
corners of the eyes. When the hands
arrive at the top Of the head, lift them
and begin at the throat. The rubbing
should be extremely light at first, but
should become heavier by nice degrees.
Don't try to do all the stretching the
first day or the first week. 1t takes
three weeks to finish the task. But
when It's done the result rewards the
effort.

LEARN TO EAT
Few People in Bismarck Really Know
How.

Slow eating will solve one-half the
problems of i'll health. Those who suf,
fer with Indigestion and weak stoni-
ach can with care and the use of
Mona stomach tablets restore the
digestion to healthy condition, so
that they can eat what they want at
any time without fear of distress or
suffering.
After few days use of Mi-o-na
stomach tablets, the headaches, dizzy
feeling, drowsiness, bad taste in the
mouth, coated tongue, f1atulence
sleeplessness, distress after eating
all these symptoms of a weak stom-
ach - will disappear, and perfect di'
gestion and good health will be re
stored.
Lenhart Drug Co. have so much
confidence in the power of Mi-o-na tc
cure Indigestion that they offer to re
fund the money should it fail to give
satisfaction.
