DUEL CHALLENGE
NOT DISTURBING
SENATOR BOURNE
Shows No Sign of Tremor
AS He Continues Duties
About Capitol.

Challenged to fight n duel in the old
fashioned way, Senator Bourne of Ore
gon was about the Capitol today at
tending to his usual duties and smoking
those good cigars for which he is ia
nous without showing any sign of
tremor.
The challenge is from DR.. J. ]. Mott,
a lifelong Republican of North Caro-
lima, who has taken bitter exception
to the remarks made by Senator Bourne
about the fragrant use of patronage to
get a Taft delegation in North Caro-
lima as evidenced by the recent with
drawal from the Senate of a number of
Federal appointments
DR.. Mott is real warlike. In an inter-
view, he says:
II shall send him my photograph and
ask him to send me his, with the re-
quest that he give me promise of a no
tice of the first day he goes out OF the
District of Columbia, and at a point
where 1 can join him, and see the
length of his eyelashes, and we will GO
over this thing face to face"
What Dr. Mott will do when he secs
Senator Bourne he has not indicated.

THE PEEVISH CHILD
NEEDS TREATMENT

When child sulks drowsiIy. or is
tretful, II is usually due to some slight
disorder of the digestive organs, and a
mild laxative is very often all that is
necessary TO restore cheerfulness and
buoyancy OF spirits.
IN cases where the use of a gentle,
effective laxative stimulant is indi-
Gated. many OF the best physicians are
now prescribing Dr. Caidwell's Syrup
Pepsin. This preparation is admitted
ly the perfect laxative, being mild, yet
positive In its action on the bowels,
and far preferable to violent cathart-
les and purgative waters. 1t is very
pleasant to the taste and is an ideal
remedy to regulate and strengthen the
stomach, liver and bowels. Is easy,
natural action makes it especially de-
sirable in the case of children, a dose
at bedtime being sure to have the de-
sired result next morning, with no at
tendant unpleasantness or discomfort.
DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is sold
by druggists everywhere in soc and
$1.00 bottles. If you have never tried
this splendid remedy. write to DR. w.
B. Caldwell, POI Washington ST., Mon
dcello, ILL.,. for a sample. He will be
very glad to send a trial bottle with
out any expense to you whatever.

CHAPTER VII
On the River.

On the River.
Betty stood under a dripping UNI
brella In the midst Of a downpour.
Just arrived by the four-horse coach
that piled regularly between Wash
ington and Georgetown. she had
found the long boar platform beside
the canal crowded with he's fellow
passengers. Suddenly she became
aware of tall, familiar figure NOV
ing through the crowd. 1t was Bruce
Darlington At the same moment he
saw her, and with casual air that
quite deceived her, approached.
You're leaving tonight" he asked.
"Yes-isn't ii miserable the way 1t
rains? And why are they so slow
why don't they hurry with that boat?'
ITS in the last lock now" ex-
planned Darlington, and gathering up
Betty's hand luggage, he helped her
aboard.
BY the time they had reached
Wheeling, Betty had quite parted with
whatever superficial prejudice she
might have had concerning river-men.
This particular one was evidently a
very nice river-man, an exception TO
his kind He made choice of the
steamer on which she should continue
her tourney. and thoughtfnlly chose
The Naiad-a slow boat.
Il haven't a thing to offer her-this
is plain madness of mine!" he kept
telling himself, and then the express
sion of his face would become grim
and determined. No more Of the river
for him--he'd get hold Of some land
and go to raising cotton; that was the
way money was made
Slow as The Nalad was. the days
passed much too swiftly for him.
When Memphis was reached their
friendly intercourse would come to an
end. There would be her brother, OF
whom she had occasionally spoken
he would be pretty certain to have
the ideas of his class.
The days. like any other days, dwin-
died. The end of it all was close at
hand. Another twenty-four hours
and Darlington reflected there would
only be good-by TO say.
I'VE will reach New Madrid to-
night" he told her, They were
watching the river under flood OF
yellow Moonlight.
Darlington, with his back against a
stanchion. watched her discontented-
iy.
