Just what senator Beveridge was

rose the moment the end of his re-

"GiffOrd Pinchot!' said the speaker,
and the outburst started. 1t grew I'M
til every one was yelling and the whot'
house was en- it's feet waving hats and
handkerchiefs.
Senator BeVeridgc had no sooner re-

rang through the house. He was
dragged forward by President Baker.
His voice shook as he spoke.

 Drink it, Bunch, every time you can, because buttermilk comes down to us from the remotest ages witn splendid recommendations.
 Every great man in history was a buttermilk drinker, Bunch.
 Every great man who is now spend ing his time trying to get into his tory is buttermilk driuker, Bunch.
 Read between the lines in your his tory of ancient Rome, and you will see how buttermilk would have saved the life of Julius Caesar if he hadn't had such a weakness for hard cider.
 Where are you going?" inquired Calathumpia, the wife of Julius Caesar, as he fastened the gold safety pin in his toga and reached for his umbrella.
 q am going down to Rudolph March's cafe in the Forum,' an swered Julius; you don't need to wait lunch fer me, Callie."
 "Rut, Julius,'' whispered Calathum- pia; why do you spend so much time at Marchs cafe in the Forum? It isn't good place for you to go, my dear. Besides, there is always a bunch of loafers hanging around that joint. Why don't you sit here at home with me in the cool Stadium and drink hrttermilk with your loving Calathum- ria?"
 "Buttermilk!" sneered Julius; such drink is only for mollycoddles and pink fingers. It doesn't make rich hood in the veins like the hard cider l get at March's. Avaunt and raus mittim,'
 But please don't go to that cafe this morning." Calathumpia kept on plea ling. Stay at home just this once and spread some of this delicious buttermilk over your thirst"

 Would this be the first tide I ever got from March?" Julius whispered back
 'rhe tides of March, remember" |" was her only answer; and away went Julius to the cafe in the Forum, giv- Ing an imitation of Joe Weber whistling Girls! Girlsi" from the Bur lesque of The Merry Widow" which was then running at the Amphitheater
 What happened in the Forum when the loafers used Julius Caesar for a pin-cushion everybody remembers.
 And when Julius dropped on the marble slab at the base of the bar he gasped out: Darn the luck! Why didn't fall for the buttermilk which stingeth not, neither does it help peo- pie to bite the dust?"
 You won't find these exact words i'll history, Bunch, because Julius gasped them in Latin, and Latin hates to get itself translated.
 Many other times in the ages passed did buttermilk come to the surface, so you may take it from me, Bunch, that it is lucky to drink it.

 Reiucarnation is 8 long, loose-look ing word, and to a perfect stranger it might sound suspicious. but its bark is worse than it's bite.
 The idea of a man being somebody else in a previous existence, then switching to another personality in the present, is interesting to think about, to say the least.
 I've cooked up three or four studies along these lines which may interest you, Bunch!
 Go to 1t, my boy!

 Brutus laughed again, and 1t was the saucy, triumphant laugh of the man who dodges in front of a woman and grabs a seat on the elevated rail road
 "The next time we meet you will not do me as you did me at the base of Pompey's statue," said the ghost of Caesar, ST eaking for the first time since we began this study.
