Estates in which Mr.. Underwood is
making a vigorous campaign for the
nomination are New York, New Jer,
sey, West Virginia, Virginia, North
Caroline, South Carolina, Georgia,
Alabama, Florida, Mississippi, Ten

is not, however, pursuing "grab-at-
everything catch-nothing" policy.
New York is practically solid for
Representative Underwood for the
Democratic nomination for the presi'

Mr.. Warner has just returned from
q business trip to New York, where he
talked with a number of prominent
people who are in position to know
the sentiment in that section OF the
country.
While in the north I talked with
men of New York, Massachusetts,
Vermont and New Hampshire" said
Mr.. Warner. Underwood is conceded
by all to be the best qualified man OF
any OF the candidates so far mention
ed. Northern men do not raise the
question that Southern man cannot
be nominated and elected to the pres
idency. Chief Justice White OF the
United States supreme court is not
only a southern man, but served as
Confederate soldier This to my
mind is conclusive evidence that no
one questions the ability and fitness
of the southern man for the high Of
fee of president of the United States .

Washington, D. C.-Vigorous de-
malls of the statements of Wilson
campaign managers that rival Demo

were in combination against the New
Jersey Governor, were made at the
various Democratic political head
quarters in Washington.
The Underwood managers, as an
answer to the charge that Underwood
represents the so-called combination
against Wilson in the approaching
Florida primaries, gave out portion
of a previous statement by Senator
Bankhead in which he made gene

Annapolis, Md.-Alabama will send
a solid delegation to the Baltimore
convention for him, but he long ago
rose above the class of "Favorite

upon Underwood as able, level-headed,
courageous. A strong man eminently
fitted for president.

ATMOSPHERE OF THE HOME
one Place Where the Best and Sweet est Side of Character Should
 Be Shown.

Family life should be one of the utmost deference and respect. It is a peculiar phase of human nature that we are oftener more considerate of strangers than Wa Szp r9 .tose who in the very nature of things hes nearest and dearest to us.
 Why should we fret and find fault until we make home life intolerable :? Why should we carry a grouch into our homes every time we leave 'busi- ness" Why should we demand services of those in the home circle which we only request in the most respectful manner from those out side of it?
 Why should a man say to his wife, "lIay, I want my slippers. Bring them to me-" and use tone of command when he knows he wouldn't address the veriest lackev in similar manner? Why should May use an iritatirg, commanding tone towar' when she wants any lit -,ive done and why do both order the children around as if they were lot of unfeeling, un- thinking little minions who knew no better than to accept the treatment without protest?
 Of all places on earth the home is the place where the best and sweet est side of character should be shown. It is there that the softest tones and kindest actions should prevail. It is there that unfailing and uniform courtesy should be the rule and where every member should use his or her utmost effort to keep the family life untainted by the irri- tating experiences of the life outside of 1t.

4 GREAT ADVANCE.

Some of the greatest advances of civilization are made silently. They escape the flourish of trumpets, while other much less important advances are accompanied by incessant drum beating and pyrotechnics. The dim mutton of the death rate is one ot the signal triumphs of modern en- hghtenment. It is also one of the most potent checks on economic waste. The average age of each gen. eration is being materially length ened, and that result is chiefly being reached by stopping the excessive loss of infant life. Yet few persons realize the extent of the benefcent progress thus made, or what it has means in the way of increasing the sum total of human happiness and efficiency.

I know a man who has lived on one farm half a century. He sleeps in the room in which he was born. in the dark. Yet his lambs and his pigs, the velvety roll of new sprout- ing wheat, the procession of the sea- sons, the apple trees he planted and has watched for years-all are new to him each day. I have seen him stand and look at his sheep as if he were city man long shut out from such sights. A sunset or sunrise is to him a miracle new-performed each day.

Bowels are Basis
 of Child Health

The careful mother, who watches closely the physical peculiarities of her children, will soon discover that the most important thing in connection with . child's constant good health is to keep the bowels regularly open. Sluggish bowels will be followed by loss of appe- tite, restlessness during sleep, irrita- bility and a dozen and one similar evil dences of physical disorder.
 At the first sign of such disorder give the child a teaspoonful of Dr. Caldwell's 8 Syrup Pepsin at night on retiring and repeat the dose the following night if necessary-more than that will scarcely be needed. You will find that the child will recover it's accustomed good spirits at once and will eat and sleep normally.
 This remedy is a vast improvement over salts, cathartics, laxative waters and similar things. which are altogether

BROUGHT WRONG MESSAGE
Vegetarian Gospel of Bearer of Good Tldinas Is Refuted by Can
 nIbai Chief.

Dark looks greeted the missionary. The inhabitants of the cannibal isle were shade blacker than jet, to start with, and dyspepsia had cloud cd their faces still more.
 "The trouble with you all," said the bearer of good tidings, "is that you live on a meat diet. If you would eat vegetables, cereals and fruits for a spell you would become civilized and happy and devote your days to piety and good works. It is the fermentation of your animal food that causes you to be so short tempered, so warlil5e and 80 miser- able.
 '0That is what all the missionaries say" replied the cannibal chief, ''but fruit and green stuff are beyond our reach. Our 1910 census shows that the average wage earner on this island makes only SIS day, and you know yourself what the overpro- duction of gold has done to the pur- chasing power of money. If you have no messages to leave, the cxecu- tioner will do his duty, after which dinner will be served in the big tent"

Washington Physician ls Divorced and Married Again In One

Within 24 hours after Philadel- phia court granted a divorce to Mrs. Katharine Saeger Bovee, her erst- while husband, pr. J. Wesley Bovee, a well-known Washington physician, married at Auburn, N. T., Mrs. Car oline Copley Wemple. The news of Dr. Bovee's second marriage was a surprise, but the granting of di- vorce to Mrs. Bovee was no surprise, as she and Dr. Bovee had been sepa. rated since 1907.
 She brought suit for divorce 1T the District of Columbia supreme court, declaring pr. Bovee had ex- cluded her from his home, and that during their separation he reduced her monthly allowance from $500 to $125. Dr. Bovee, through his attor. neys, stated that when the facts were known right thinking people would absolve him from all blame.
