THE OBJECT of this suit is to procure
divorce a vinculo matrimOnii by the
plaintiff from the defendant.
The Bill states that the said plaintiff is
a citizen Of the State of Maryland, and a
resident of Montgomery county, and has
been such citizen and resident for more
than two years past That the plaintiff
and defendant were married on the 18th
day of November, A. d. 1908, in the city
of Washington, d. C..
That the plaintiff conducted herself as a
chaste and dutiful wife to the defendant,
but that on or about the 18th day of Deem
Der, A. ID. 1907, the said defendant aban-
doned and deserted the plaintiff without
any just cause or provocation. That such
abandonment and desertion has been con-
tinuous and uninterrupted ever since and
is deliberate and final, and the separation
OF the parties is beyond any reasonable
expectation of a reconciliation. That the
defendant is nonresident of the State of
Maryland, and that he resides in the city
OF Washington, d. c. That there has been
no issue born to the plaintiff and de-
PENDANT.
1t is thereupon this 18th day of May,
A. d. 1911, ordered by the Circuit Court for
Montgomery county, as Court of Equity,
that the plaintiff, Rosa johnson, by caus-
ing copy of this order to be inserted in
some newspaper published in said Montgom-
cry county, once in each of four successive
weeks before the oath day of June, A. D.
1911, give notice to said absent defendant,
Samuel johnson, of the object and sub
stance of this bill, warning him to be and
appear in this Court in person, or by solicit
tor, on or before the 18th day of July, 1911,
to show cause, if any he has, why de-
cree ought not to be passed as prayed.

ICY" Cummings For Senate.
From the Baltimore Evening Sun.

From the Baltimore Evening Sun.
Next to the nomination and election Of
Blair Lee as Governor, one of the most
pleasing political performances, in the
minds of many voters of MONTGOMERY
county, would be the promotion Of "Cy'
Cummings from the House of Delegates to
the Senate, and a movement to this end
already has been started. Mr.. Cummings
friends are insistent, ICY" himself is agree
able, and the Democratic voters are de-
scribed as in favor of the transfer.
While not eating ice cream with thesame
spoon as his colleagues from Montgomery
in the junior chamber, Mr. Cummings was
a power to be reckoned with at the last ses-
sion and made his presence felt by his voice,
his vote and his influence. In some cases
his vote did not appreciably please the
people in Baltimore city, but it seemed to
be acceptable to his constituency, and
they were the folks whom Cummings rep
resented.
Probably Mr.. Cummings greatest achieve
ment at the session was his dramatic in
production of the Lee primary BILL and the
energy and diplomacy with which he
worked for its passage. Hardly had the
administration measure been defeated
when Cummings sprang to his feet
"Mr. Speaker he cried, and when ICY"
cried aloud the adjacent territory took
notice.
ICY is about to say something" re-
marked a man away over at Chevy Chase,
and his guess was good one.
Mr.. Speaker" cried Cummings, 81 beg
to introduce a substitute" and he waved
the Lee bill aloft.
Ensued tumult and confusion, which
ICY" withstood like rock and which he
eventually quelled. And in the end the
bill went through and ICY" was acclaimed
hero. Indeed, to Mr.. Cummings efforts
and work Senator Lee attributes in large
measure the passage Of the bill.
Few men, if any, were more popular in
the House than Mr.. Cummings, and few, if
any, were regarded as stronger, mentally
or morally-or physically.

Wit And Wisdom.

A man thinks he's economizing if he
makes the family do it.
Don't think because you close your eyes
to your faults that your neighbors will do
likewise.
Take care of the to-morrows yesterdays
will take care of themselves.
People who talk great deal have few
real friends.
When a man starts in to make money
he also makes enemies

HOW TO CURE RHEUMATISM
II Il An Internal Disease And Re.
auirca An Internal RemedY.


The cause of rheumatism and kindred
diseases is an excess OF uric acid in the
blood. To cure this terrible disease this
acid must be expelled and the system so
regulated that no more acid win be
formed in excessive quantities Rheuma-
tism Is an internal disease and requires
an Internal remedy RUBBING with
Oils and Liniments WILL NOT CURE,
affords only temporary relief at best,
causes you to delay the proper treat
ment, and allows the malady to get a
firmer hold on you. Liniments may ease
the pain, but they will no more cure
Rheumatism than paint will change the
fiber OF rotten wood.
Science has at last discovered a per-
feet and complete cure, which Is called
Rheumacide. Tested in hundreds OF cases,
II has effected the most marvellous cures;
we believe II will cure you. Rheumacide
gets at the joints from the inside, sweeps
the poisons out of the system, tones up
the stomach. regulates the liver and
kidneys and makes you well all over.
Rheumacide strikes the root of the dis.
ease and removes its cause. This SPLEEN
did remedy Is sold by druggists and
dealers generally at soc. and 81 bottle.
In Tablet form at 25c. and soc. a package.

PASS DIRECT VOTE.

By vote of ga to "a, the United States
Senate last Monday night adopted the reso-
luton submitting constitutional amend
ment to the States for ratification, provid-
ing for popular election of United States
Senators. The Bristow amendment, which
retains Federal control over the times,
places and manner" of holding these cleo
tons, was agreed to, by a vote of AS to
A. The Vice President cast the deciding
vote, this breaking tie.
The resolution, amended, passed as fol-
lows:
THAT in lieu of the first paragraph of
section three of article of the Constitu-
ton Of the United States, and in lieu Of
so much of paragraph two of the same
section as relates to the filling of Vacan-
cies, the following be proposed as an
amendment to the Constitution, which
shall be valid to all intents and purposes
as part of the Constitution, when ratified
by the legislatures of three-fourths of the
States.
THE Senate of the United States shall
be composed of two senators from each
State elected by the people thereof, for
six years, and each senator shall have
one vote. The electors in each State shall
have the qualifications requisite for cleo
tors of the most numerous branch of the
State Legislatures.
when vacancies happen in the repre-
sentation of any State in the Senate, the
executive authority of such State shall
issue writs of election to fill such vacan
cies: Provided That the legislature of
any State may empower the executive
thereof to make temporary appointments
until the people FIJI the vacancies by cleo
ton, as the legislature may direct.
This amendment shall not be so con-
strued as to affect the election or term of
any Senator chosen before it becomes
valid as part of the Constitution"
After the main fight against the Bris-
tow amendment had been lost, Mr.. Bacon
offered another amendment, which sought
to limit the exercise of Federal control
over elections within the States to occa-
sions when the States should fail to pro-
vide for times, places, and manner" of
holding elections. All the Democrats sup
ported this amendment, as did Senators
Borah, La Toilette, Poindexter, and Works.
and it was defeated by only three votes,
the vote standing as to AZ.
The resolution, in the form in which it
passed the Senate now will 90 into con-
ference.
The roll call on the Bristow amendment
was watched with the keenest interest.
1t was known that the vote would be
close, but there were two senators who
had refused to say how they would vote.
The result was not known until Mr.
Works cast his vote gainst the amend
ment This made it a tie. The Vice Pres
ident promptly exercised his privilege under
the Constitution and promptly voted for
the resolution, Notwithstanding the protest
of Senator Reed that in the circumstance,
the presiding officer ought not to vote. A
tie vote was equivalent to the rejection of
the amendment.
The roll call also emphasized the division
in the ranks of the insurgents, for Senators
Bourne, Bristow, Brown. Clapp. Crawford,
Cummins, Dixon. and Kenyon voted for
the amendment. Senators Gronnah Borah
Poindexter, La Toilette, and Works voted
against it.
