There are a great many people who
think that members Of Congress have

thNiC oA' q Stcot hAohS RNcb@~ 49,
think that members Of Congress have
nothing else
t,I'j.s5lll5,. .,;II;k.,R. to bother
w ~ eJI1iIi1le yyau them but the
Rtek11 lI1sEikp. .S !" NJ making Of the
nations laws.
They imagine that, unless for . stray
lobbyist now and then, they are never
disturbed from their arduous duties
Of lawmaking. Such is far from the
case and the principal harassers Of
out national representatives are, to
great per cent, women. These fem
mine time MASTERS are women Of all
classes and sorts and represent every
variety of life from the poor woman
who wants a government position for
her sickly husband to the home slater
who merely wishes to call on the
member from her part of the country.
In the capitol there are two rooms
for these women callers, one for those
wishing to see the congressman and
another for those who are looking for
the senator's
In each of these rooms there is a
young woman who takes charge of
the callers. The young woman In
charge of the Congress waiting room
has the most trouble, for the callers
are more numerous and more bother
some. AS they come In they go to
her desk and tell her whom they
wish to see and she takes their card
and, writing instructions on 1t; sends
1t into the representative desired.
The pages who carry these cards
back and forth are generally kept
very busy and often come in for ugly
call downs from disappointed callers.
When the legislature at Washing
ton is in full session the members
are generally very busy and absorbed
In the nations business. If they are
fighting for a measure which is of ma
tional import they have very little
time to be explaining difficulties and
arranging little minor matters for un-
reasonable women who imagine that
their little trouble is the only one in
the world and should therefore be adj
justed at once Just at present both
houses are busily engaged with meas
Tres which are vastly important to
the whole country; they have little
time to spare and yet If one we're to
stroll through the capitol today he
would find that little waiting room
crowded with women who are filed
with that unconscious presumption
that encourages them to protrude
their little affairs to the front at the
expense Of the nations most import
ant business. When the cause of
"Women's Rights" come to its own It
will be Joss-up between the nations
business and the ,angled affairs of a
pink tea or bridge party.
One Of the old gags that the mem
bers work on callers whom they de-
sire to dodge is, when the page comes
to them with call, they move to a
vacant seat and send out word that
they are not In their seat. The page
who has to deliver this message,
which is not lie. generally comes in
for trouble, as oftentimes the caller
goes to the gallery and, seeing that
the member is on the floor, goes back
to the unlucky page and vents her ire
On him. The congressman, who are
not without human instinct, generally
reward the page for his trouble. This
! ~Female-caller' nuisance is not new
one and while women continue to be
unreasonable the waiting rooms of the
capitol will always be filed.

RHEUMATISM HIT STONE AGE
Research Shows Disease Was. Com.

Paris, May 29.-It may not greatly
console modern people, but a paper
read at the Academy of Science this
week established the fact that rheu-
matism was as common among our
ancestors of the polished stone age
as it is at the present time Resetrch-
es made by DR.. Marcel Badouin of a

among 100 skeletons showed the eff

The skeletons of the women show

often affected, while the men seem to
show the effects on the right side. DR..
Fadouins paper concluded that th,,
affection which nowadays is called
Osteoarthritis difformass is the oldest
known disease. 1t has been found in

WHEN Is AN EG GDECREPIT?
Spreme Court Called on to Decide
Frozen Hen Fruit Problem

Washinton, May "a When is an
egg decdipid?" is the latest problem
to occupy official attention here. The
Supreme Court of the United States
is called upon to decide the question
and probably will announce next Mon
day a date for it's consideration.
Preparers of frozen eggs are asking
for a ruling that will prevent pure
food officials from cOndemning their
product on account of change in
chemical composition, unless it is al
frmatively shown that the eggs are
anft for food or injurious to health.
The government has informed th7
court that the case is of importance
because frozen eggs are used in the
manufacture of the greater part OF
the cakes and pastry sold to the pub
lie.

Claims TO. be. Son Of Elkins.

Des Moines, Jan. S.-Special: A
man giving his name as George w.
M. Elkins,, and claiming to be son
of the late United States Senator
Stephen B.. Elkins, of West Virginia,
applied at the city physicians office
yesterday afternoon for medical at
tention. He, says he has been failing
in health for some time, and was Civ.
en- rigid examination by Police
Surgeon. Elkins at first refused TO
talk about himself, but after repleat-
ed questions told the strange story
of his life. He says he was born for
ty-three years ago in the town, which
now bears the Elkins name. He says
that Miss Katherine Elkins, who has
been constantly before the reading
public for several years as the pros.
pectiye bride of Duke D'Abruzza of
Italy, is his sister. According to the
mans story he ran away from home
when he was s, years old. The cause,
he says, was a severe thrashing which
| the elder Elkins administered after
he had stolen 80 cents to buy candy.
