The young mother-and many an old
one. tools often puzzled to know the
cause OF her child's III nature. The
loudness of its crying does not neces-
sarily indicate the SERIOUSNESS of its
trouble. It may have nothing more the
matter with II than a headache or a
feeling of general dullness. 1t cannot,
OF course, describe its feelings. but as a
preliminary measure you are safe in
trying q mild laxative.
Nine times out of ten. you will find It
Is all the child needs, for its restless
moss and peevishness are perhaps due to
obstruction of the bowels, and once that
has been remedied the headache, the
sluggishness and the many other evil
dences of constipation and indigestion
will quickly disappear.
Don't give the little one salts cathar-
tic pills or nasty waters, for these will
act as purgatives, and they are too
strong for a child. In the families of

STEAMERS BATTLE /.
=. RIVER ICE FLOES
Steel HuIs Break Channel Made Almost impossible BY
Vast Areas Of Frozen Bloc ks Southland Incrusted,
Arrives Behind Schedule At Capital.

The extreme cold OF the last week
has retarded commerce on the Potomac
river, in, many places the ice making
the channel almost ;mpassable even for
the steel-hulled boats of the washing
ton and Norfolk Ines. The steamer
Southland arrived behind her schedule
this morning, her bows incrusted in
ice.
According to her captain and pilot,
the mid-channel track, which has been
kept broken by the big boats, Is fairly
good as far down the river as Indian
Head, after which the real fight against
ice begins,
The worst ice we encountered on our
trip up the river this morning." said
Capt. II. Kendrick, OF the Southland,

was in the foes from Point Lookout
to Blackstone Island. Here we en-
countered fields of immense area, the
ice forming them oeing nearly a foot
thick.
"OH Piney Point early this morning
we sighted a British tramp steamer 1t
was too dark to distinguish more than
the yellow band around her funnel, and
/ could not get her name but she
seemed to be making very poor progress
against the Ice"
as a passage was cut through the ice
by the boat the gap would close UP at
once, freezing almost instantly.
While Chesapeake Bay is not frozen,
steamboat men say that the greatest
trouble Is encountered at the point
where the Potomac enters the bay.

G. s. Raymond of the Chicago Tribune
is writing series of political short sto
ries in The American Magazine, il
which he is revealing some of the com
edies and tragedies of life in state
legislature. In the current number Of
The American, his story has to do with
the adventures of a newly-elected eoun'
try member named Policy. Following is
a short extract:
"EIe was timid and embarrassed when
the older members took notice of him
but the possibility that he might win
their friendship and respect was allur-
ing. He had received from an indulgent
state an allowance of $50 for stationery
He also had been given box containing
whiskbroom, package of pencils a
box of pens, two erasers, three pads OF
yellow paper and four pads of white
paper
'T1e was prepared to believe any ex-
travagance possible. He might dictate
his letters to a stenographer if he could
persuade one that his affairs were i'm
portant enough to interfere with hers
The privileges OF craftsmanship seemed
Babylonish."
Policy was so gullible that he believed
story that raincoats were given freely
to members. The story, as told to Pol
ley by practical jokers in the legislature,
was that if he would climb the dusty
stairs to the dome of the capitol he
would find his raincoat waiting for him.
He made the trip anu when he returned
was loudly jeered, He laughs best who
laughs last, however, for Policy got even
with his prosecutors in manner which
Mr.. Raymond entertainingly describes.
