QUICKER TO WALK UPSTAIRS.
Ordinary MortaIs Liable to Delay jr
Capitol Elevators.

Senators take precedence over ordi
nary mortals in the elevators at the
senate end of the national capitol.
Whenever a senator enters the ele-
vatOr the conductor takes him ~imme-
diately to the floor he wishes to go,
no matter if the cage should happen
(as is frequently the case) to be filled
with men and women headed in the
opposite direction. Three rings is a
notice to the conductor that senator
wishes to go up or down. Frequently
mischievous page will give the SEN
atoriai ring and then run to cover,
and at such times the conductor uses
language that is quite unparliamen-
tary. Occasionally delicate situation
is created by two senators entering
an elevator at the same time, each
headed in an opposite direction. Then
an Alphonse-Gaston stunt is enacted,
to the edification of the onloOkers, be-
fore the big machine gets under way
again.
Not long since Mr.. Latta who con-
veys all of President Roosevelts mes
sages from the White House to the
capitol, stepped in the elevator with
a big, black portfolio under his arm
containing "a message in writing from
the president to the senate Of the
United States" Just then there was
a senatorial signal from the subject
lar, so instead of going up with Mr..
Roosevelt's messenger, the operator
lowered the cage to the basement. The
senator who entered wished to go to
the gallery, so the elevator went up
to that point without stopping. An
other senator was waiting at the gal
leIy floor who had business in the
basement Several trips from top to
bottom were made without stopping
at the senate floor, where Mr.. Latta
wished to get out.
Hold on" said Mr.. Latta just as
the elevator reached the bottom after
his fourth fruitless attempt to reach
the senate floor. Il guess l will get
out and walk up. You see, I am in a
hurry!"
Looks like a senatorial conspir
acy," remarked bystander, ito keep

AND NOW THEY DON'T SPEAK.
Whispering Stones in Statuary Hall
Completed Estrangement.

Who hasn't heard or experimental
with the famous whispering gallery"
in statuary hall? Really, the phenom-
enon should be called the whisper
ing stones" for two persons stand
ing exactly on these stones and sep
arated by the wide expanse of the
great vaulted chamber can carry on
a low-toned conversation. A capitol
guide tried to explain the why of it
to me once, but got all tangled up
and failed miserably, says writer in
the Washington Star. / suppose it is
merely that by some sort of outra-
geously complicated acoustic the hui
word from one of these stones, is
phonographically treated and magni-
fed until it is a regular below when
it arrives at the other. But this isn't
the whispering stones, but concerns
congressional feud they started.
There are two Democrats in the
house from the same southern state
who have never been particularly i'm
pressed with each other, but who have
always taken the greatest pains to
remain on the most friendly terms.
Let's call them Jones and Smith, and
explain their courtesy by saying that
Jones, although he didn't like Smith,
thought Smith likes him and vice
versa.
But it's all over now, for one day
last week Jones was standing in stat
uary hall talking with a constituent
and the conversation turned on Smith.
There were a few people scattered
around the hall, but Jones, always
cautious, spoke in almost whisper.
But in that whisper he relieved his
mind He called Smith everything he
could think of from a cOnceited, pin
headed ass up. And after he had con-
cluded his peroration and had paused
to draw long breath he nearly
dropped dead when, apparently out Of
the clear sky, came, in an enraged
roar, the voice of Smith. And Smith
started off with "Snake!" and from
that he branched out and became elo-
quent.
When Jones recovered his presence
of mind he began to glance around,
and far across statuary hall, standing
on one of the whispering stones
which, it might be explained, are not
marked in any wayne saw Smith,
gesticulating violently and apparent
ly talking to himself, for there was no
one within yards of him. But every
word that he said reached Jones, and
in a minute he was barking back. The
spectacle was perfectly idiotic, but
this fact didn't appeal to either Jones
or Smith at the time.
And now they don't even speak;
also, the tale having been spread
around by dear friends of both par
ties, members of the house are be-
ginning to be careful what they say
in passing through statuary hall,
where are located the wonderful but
somewhat indiscreet whispering
stones.

VIZ
General Demand

of the Well Informed of the World has
always been for simple, pleasant and
efficient liquid laxative remedy of known
value; laxative which physicians could
sanction for family use because its COM
ponent parts are known to them to be
wholesome and truly beneficial in effect,
acceptable to the system and gentle, yet
prompt, in action.
In supplying that demand with its ex-
.cellent combination Of Syrup of Figs and
Elixir of SIENNA, the California Fig Syrup
Co. proceeds along ethical lines and relies
on the merits of the laxative for its remark
able success.
That is one of many reasons why
Syrup of Figs and Elixir of SIENNA is given
the preference by the Well-Informed.
To get its beneficial effects always buy
the genuine manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co., only, and for sale
by all leading druggists. Price fifty cents
per bottle.

growth and development of all PLANES.
They are carbon, hydrogen, oxygen,
magnesium, iron, sulphur, calcium,
nitrogen, phosphorus anud potassium.
Combinations of the three elements,
carbon, hydrogen and oxygen, consti-
tute approximately 95 per cent. of all
plants. They form the portions spoken
of in feeds as fats and carbohy drates,
including the oils and starch. Plants
obtain their supply of these elements
from air and water The carbon is
derived from the carbon dioxide of
the air, and the hydrogen and oxygen
from water, which is a combination of
these two elements. Thus, it is seen
that only about five per cent, or one
twentieth of the material of plants,
actually comes from the soil. Only
minute amounts of magnesium, iron
and sulphur are required, and they
are present in practically all soils In

abundant quantities. The same is usu-
ally true as regards calcium although
certain crops, particularly clover, re-
quire this element in considerable
amounts. 1t is evident that seven of
the ten elements essential to plant
growth need cause the farmer but lit
tie concern.
Nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium
are three elements which in their vari-
Gus combinations constitute the vast
majority of the material obtained from
the soil by plants. These elements
are required by all plants in consider
able amounts and their presence in
many soils is limited 1t is a COM
mon but erroneous idea that the soil
is a great mass of material, the great
er portion of which may sooner or
later be used by plants as food. Nu-
merous chemical analyses of soils,
representing many different sections,
show that ton of fertile soil to a

found combined with other elements,
and it has been demonstrated by ex-
pertinent that plants are capable Of ap-
propriating their food only when it
exists in certain combinations. In
other words, sufficient amounts of
plant food may be present in the soil,
but it nay be in such form that plants
cannct use it. Herein lies the solu-
ton Of the soil fertility problem, so
far as plant food is concerned, viz, to
have present at all stages of the
plants growth an ample supply Of
each element in readily available
form.
The beneficial effect of manure as
shown in some test plots stands out
prominently, not only in the general
average, but in the average for each
year and in the individual crops grown
each year, as indicated in the &C
companying diagram.

little understood and little appre-

There are, however, certain practi-

their effect upon the maintenance of
