usually carefully measures the space and
carefully estimates his leaping capacity
in advance.
Much fun has been made Of his con-
science in comic papers and public
/ speeches 1t is no myth, either. The
thing about Hughes that worries the
politicians most of al is his placidity.
LIE consults his conscience ON every move
and does what will satisfy it and then
mo matter what happens, he can say to
himself.
4 have done the right thing. If 9th
ers fail ! cannot be blamed for their
failure. / have done my full duty
Hughes studied hard as boy in school
and has never stopped lie il now forty
six years old and in his mind are stored
away the results Of almost that many
years study, for he began to read almost
as soon as he began Co talk.
But there Is another side to the man
the side that usually is not seen by the
public. lie has all the human emotions
in strong degree, but he hns learned
to control them and keep them in the
background. No man is better company
at dinner and no man enters more
enthusiastically into the spirit OF Joke
or an evening Of pleasure, when the even
ing has been set aside for that purpose.
AT dinners such as the Amen Corner"
annual affair in New York. Or the dinner
of the Legislative Correspondents asso-
citation at Albany, both OF which are
patterned after the Gridiron dinners in
Washington, he enjoys all the fun that
il pol<ed at him and laughs ioudest OF
all. He seems to revel in recreation Of
this sort. and the reason probably lies
lin the fact that he usually keeps his
mind hard at serious work
The very fact that he is unpopular
with the politicians who have ruled New
York SO long has given Hughes much
support--a support Of kind that sur
prised everybody. II came from men
who usually are not heard from in public
matters.
No man doubts his sincerity. No one
has charged him with inordinate ambi-
ton. Many believe that he is the most
popular man in the state and assert free
ly that few men ever were as popular
with the people at large But. they
usually add, he does not takes advantage
of his opportunity.
The late John Nandercook president
Of the United Press, in en- article on
Hughes said:
Some think Hughes al heart a Wall
street lawyer some say that he is a
moral prie The hulktof his really car
nest popular support comes from the
upstate 'hayseed DISTRICTS We're he
ever made president. he probably would

GAVE UP WORK BECAUSE OF
HIS WEAKENED CONDITION

Mr. Earl Mccoy, living at 1906 So
Branson Street, Marion. Ind, has
passed through an experience that is
being duplicated every day in every
town and city Of any consequence in
the United States. It furnishes abun.
fiant proof Of the correctness of l.. r.
Cooper's theory in regard to the de
generaoy Of the human stomach, and
blows conciusively the merit possessed
By his New Discovery medicine to re.
