HELPED SENATOR TO VICTORY
Political Opponents Made Mistake
When They Raked Up Story
They Thought Would Hurt.

Senator Chamberlain o. Washington.
who recently made his first extended
speech in congress, on conservation.
has reminded an old friend OF Cham
berlain's own experiments in conser-
walton.
when Chamberlain was running
the senate, said this friend. the op-
position went over his record with a
fine tooth comb to find something in
furious to him. One day one Of the
strikers rushed in and announced that
he had IL.
Chamberlain was president # a
bank when he was young man; 1t
busted and was a horrible wreck.
Dig it up quick" announced tho
campaign manager.
The story was looked up and was
true. The bank had failed, and
there were almost no assets.
They were just ready to put out the
story when an old friend of Chamber
lain's came along and advised against
it. Wont do you any good" he In
sisted. Take my word for it,
But the campaign managers had to
do something, and so the story of the
busted bank was given out and got
due publicity in all the anti-Chamber-
lain papers. Next day the Chamberlain
committee gave out statement signed
by all the directors and a lot of depos-
itOrs of the bank. 1t said:
1T is true that Mr.. Chamberlain
was president of the bank when It
failed. At that time le was a man Of
some property. He had never been
actively connected with the bank
management, and when he learned
that it was closed and hopelessly in
solvent he turned over his entire prop
erty and personally paid all depos-
itors."
Whereupon the anti-Chamberlain
people started hunting for new roor-
back, and when election day came tbs
man whose bank had failed inglorious-
ly was triumphantly elected senator.

dangers for the brave, an unknown
world to conquer and room for all"
In the swift march of national
events during the past decade, the
development Of the west has focused
the attention Of the world. 1t fur
nishes one Of the most inspiring pages
in the annals of our commonwealth.
1t is a story Of progress and human
achievements battle with nature in
her sternest and most forbidding as
pect.
But irrigation has wrought its mir
acle, and the wealth Of that portion
Of the country which great statesmen
in Webster's day were wont to de-
clare worthless Is greater now than
that Of the entire nation in 1860. OF
especial interest is the project located
in northern Wyoming.
AS the springtime showers and
sunshine fall upon the snowy peaks
of the lofty mountains on the eastern
rim of Yellowstone park, thousand
streams rush downward to fill to
trimming the swift-fowing Shoshone
river. An important physical change
will occur at such a time. The flood
that once, unchecked and uncon-
trolled, swept madly through the rock
walled gorge, will beat itself to still
ness against a massive wall of con-
crete with which man has blocked
the canyon. A beautiful lake, 100 feet
deep and covering 10 square miles,
will appear.
In this wonderful cash in the noun
tains, with perpendicular walls thou
sand feet high, the government has
erected the highest dam in the world.
It is a wedge of concrete 1913 feet
from base to top. It's height can
only be appreciated when compared
with that well-known structure, New
York's famous Flatiron building would
reach within At feet of the top Of the
dam, and the tip-top Of the dome
of the United States capitol would
fall 81 feet short of the parapet.
In the summer, when the crops are
thirsty, the big gates will be opened
and the pent-up foods will be released
into the river below. Another dam,
a low structure Of concrete, will di-
vert the waters through tunnel
three ad quarter miles long into
a canal which for 40 miles passes
along the upper edge Of broad and
fertile valley containing 10000 acres.
Two years ago it was desolate
waste. Today it contains more than
200 farm houses and three thriving
towns. Last year 10000 acres pro-
duced crops on this project. The bea-
con of hope shines brightly In the
west. It beckons the 1andless man to
the manless land.

SYNOPSIS.

The story is told by Nicholas Trist. His
chief Senator John Calhoun offered the
portfolio of secretary of state in Tyler's
cabinet, is told by Dr. Ward that his time
is short. Calhoun declares that he is not
ready to die, and if he accepts Tyiers OF
fer it means that Texas and Oregon must
be added to the Union. He plans to learn
the intentions of England with regard to
Mexico through Baroness Won Ritz. secret
spy and reputed mistress of the English
ambassador, Pakenham. Nicholas is sent
to bring the baroness to Calhoun's apart
ments and misses a meeting with his
sweetheart. Elizabeth Churchill. While
searching for the baroEess' house a car
riage dashes up and Nicholas is invited to
enter. The occupant is the baroness. who
says she is being pursued. The pursuers
are shaken off. Nicholas is invited into
the house and delivers Calhoun's message.
He notes that the baroness has lost
slipper. Nicholas is given the remaining
slipper as a pledge that she will tell Cal
houn everything. He gives her as ssecur-
ity an Indian trinllet he intended for
Elizabeth. Elizabeth's father consents to
Nicholas proposal for her hand.

CRIMINAL NEGLECT
OF SKIN AND HAIR

Cuticura Soap and Ointment do so
much for poor compilations, red,
rough hands, and dry, thin and fall
ing hair, and cost so little that it is
almost criminal not to use them.
Think of the suffering entailed by
neglected skin troubles-mental be-
cause of figuration-physical be-
cause of pain. Think of the pleasure
of clear skin, soft white hands and
good hair. These blessings are often
only a matter of a little thoughtful,
timely care, viz.:-warm baths with
Cuticura Soap, assisted when neces-
sary by gentle anointings with Cuti-
cura Ointment. The latest Cuticura
book, an invaluable guide to skin and
hair health, will be mailed free, on
application to the Potter Drug G.
Chem. Corp, Boston, Mass.

Our Lack in Humor,

Artemus Ward said that a comic
paper was no worse for having a
joke in it now and then, and his words
have ever since been quoted as en-
bodying the gospel of wit and humor
The great form of American mirth
is the joke. 1T is to laugh" that's our
creed in a sentence Misplaced cap
itals, awkward spelling, impossible
grammar infinite incongruity of situa-
ton, endless wordplay, grotesquery OF
action and character, heightened by
pictures equally funny, these are the
things that make us laugh. We are
quick to catch the point of a cartoon,
to enjoy the exaggeration of a carica.
ture But to smile at the mock-seri
Gus. to be amused by satire. is re-
finement as yet beyond us.

little forward and locking her hands

girl at my side saw that written on
my face which now, within the very
moment, it had become her right to
question! l turned to her suddenly.
"Elizabeth,' said |, you shall have
your little brooch tonight, if you will
promise me now to be ready and wait
ing for me at six. l will have the

1t seemed to me that this new self
of Elizabeth's - warmer, yielding.
adorable-was slowly going away from
me again, and that her old self, none
the less sweet, none the less alluring,
but more logical and questioning, had
taken its old place again. She put
both her hands on my arm now and
looked me fairly in the face, where
the color still proclaimed some sort
of guilt on my part, although my heart
was clean and innocent as hers.
'Nicholas,' she said, come to-
night Bring me my little jewel-and
bring
THE minister! If l do that, Eliza
beth, you will marry me then?"
Yes" she whispered softly.
Amid all the din and babble Of that
motley throng l heard the word low

like Elizabeth's.
An instant later, l knew not quite
how. her hand was away from my
arm, in that of Aunt Betty, and they
were passing toward the main door.

doubt mingled in my mind.

would have been too much to ask even
of her TO suppress the sudden flash of

change in tbs expression Of her face,
| spoke to me f. an undertone no one

"Wait!" she murmured. There is

new woman whom | had wooed and
| found, this new Elizabeth whose hand
lay on my arm, saw what no one else
would have Seen-that little flash of
recognition on the face of Helena Won

Moreover, with a woman's uncanny

item of the others costume. For my
self, l could see nothing of that cos

brooch Of double shells and beaded
