FEED YOUNG GIRLS
Must Have Right Food While Growing

Great care should be taken at the
critical period when the young girl is
Just merging into womanhood that the
diet shaN contain that which is up
building and nothing harmful.
At that age the structure is being
formed and if formed of a healthy,
sturdy character, health and happiness
will follow; on the other hand un-
healthy cells may be built in and a
sick condition slowly supervene which,
If not checked, may ripen into a
chronic condition and cause lifelong
suffering.
A young lady says:
Coffee began to have such an effect
on my stomach few years ago that 1
finally quit using it. 1t brought on
headaches, pains In my muscles, and
nervousness.

found its effects even worse than those
I suffered from coffee. Then for a long
time drank milk at my meals. but at

the rescue with the suggestion that l

CONGRESS May
ADJOURN SOON
MORE INTEREST IN SUMNER RE-
SORTS THAN IN TARIFF
QUESTIONS.
FINISH WORK JUNE is
SENATE EXPECTED TO PASS Reel
PROClTY BILL WITHIN
MONTH.

Washington.-Alth the special
session OF Congress is but little more
tEan a month old, talk of adjournment
has already become general. Republi-
cans in both branches have been hint
ing that recess during the hot
months would not interfere with legis-
lRtion, while many Democrats in the
House are beginning to believe they
will be through with all they care to
enact of their legislative programme
within another month.
High temperature experienced last
week in Washington served to stimu-
late In the Democratic representatives
more interest In summer resort mat
ters than in tariff questions. For sey-
eral days they have been considering
the possibility of getting through for
the summer by June 18th.
The House expects to have before
1t the revised wooden schedule within
a week or ten days.
There was much missionary work
last week to unite the factions for an
agreement upon. revision, in the ma
ture of compromise between the ad-
and the champions of free raw wool.
All Democrats have agreed to abide by
the caucus decision.
Outside of that feature of the tariff.
with perhaps some revision of the cot
ton schedule, there is little before the
House. The caucus decided month
ago to make this tariff session.
There is nothing to come before the
House except some inquiry resolu-
tions. The Democratic majority in
tends to ward Off being drawn into dis
cussion of general Legislation by con-
s:deration of the discharge calendar,
which is loaded by tine Republicans
with many stumbling blocks. Twice
they have lodged the calendar and
have announced they believe it can be
successfully avoided in the future.
Though the Democratic free list bill
probably will not be passed by the
Senate-it may not be considered at
all--the Democratic leaders insist that
they have demonstrated to the people
that in passing that measure their in
tentions were good, and that 1T VIII
not be necessary for them to insist
upon remaining in session to await ac-
ton on it by the Senate.
The reciprocity bill they expect the
Senate to pass within n month and
then all that President Taft asked of
the extraordinary session will have
been disposed of. The Senate. they
believe, will then be ready to go
home. Meantime the House will con
sidsr such matters as army reorGan-
izarion. labor legislation and reform
in the civil service.
In the Senate, hearings will con-
tinue this week before the finance
committee on the Canadian .reci-
procity bill, and on the floor the fight
over the election of a president pro
tempore to succeed Senator Frye will
be resumed. Representatives of the
regular and insurgent Republicans in
sist that there will be no break in the
deadlock The opposition of the pro-
gressives to Senator Gallinger will
hold intact, it is said. and the stall
warts will not yield to agree on some
other candidate.
Discussion in the Senate of the bill
passed by the House on the popular
election of senators may come up this
week. Senator Borah intending to call
up the bill at the earliest opportunity.

Governor signs Appropriation Bill


Denver.-Governor Shafroth signed
the long appropriation bill which pro-
vides for the expenditure Of more than
81 400 900 by the various departments
of the state government in the next
two years. State Treasurer Kenehan,
with Attorney General Griffith, has
carefully gone over this measure, and
all attempts to raise salaries or create
new state offices have been noted.
Some If them will be stricken out.
The following changes in salary
were made in the bill before the sig
nature of the governor was attached:
Division engineers, water districts
Nos. and 2, salary reduced from 81
500 to the present figure, $1,000.
Bureau of mines, salary of four in
spectors reduced from $1,000 to $4,000.

measure, and cannot change these sal
| aries.
