ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTEEN.
Staten Island, Sept. !, 1913.
1t is pleasure to justify the trust thus placed
in US We speak from prolonged study Of the
books. coupled with a thorough observation Of the
best amateurs and professionals. BY following
these few and simple rules our correspondent can
become finished golfer in no time:
Rule One Keep the weight entirely on the right
foot throughout the swing
Rule Two: Keep the weight entirely on the left
foot throughout the swing
Rule Three: Shift the weight from the right to
the left foot as you hit the ball This is very i'm
portant.
Rule -Four: The left hand should grip tightly as it
furnishes all the power. The right hand merely
guides the club.
Rule Five: The right hand should grip tightly. 1t
is the driving hand, the left hand merely guiding
the club
Rule Six: Always take practice swing
Rule Seven: Never take practice swing.
Rule Eight: Don't bend the left elbow If you want
distance
Rule Nine If you keep the left elbow stf don't
hope for long ball
Rule Ten Forget all instructions and trust to
instinct as you address the ball.
Rule Eleven: No one can become a good golfer
without using the head constantly and studying
each stroke as it is made.
Rule Twelve: 1t is not the swat that counts but
gentle flip accurately timed.
Rule Thirteen: How can you expect to get long
ball unless you hit hard!
All Of these rules our correspondent VIII ma
duly observed by the experts who write and the
EXPERTS who play. If our correspondent will follow
them he will quickly rank among the most eItraor-
binary players Of this most extraordinary or all

a fashionable restaurant, accompanied
by a couple of children, and after
ordering lemon soda, asked the
waiter to bring him three plates.
This, according to Senator Clapp, the

take some sandwiches from his

pass them around to the kids, he re
ported the matter to the boss. What

manager, rushing over to the sand

Overnight Relief
for Constipation
A Small Dose on Retiring
and You Are We'll and
Happy bV Morning

It is only natural that the simplest
Of ailments should be the most gen.
eral, and SO we have a whole nation
suffering from constipation and indi-
gestion, for they are closely allied. But
common as constipation is many peo-
pie do not seem to know they have
1t. They will complain of headache,
drowsiness or biliousness, all uncon-
scious Of the cause Of the trouble.
You should have q full and free
movement at least once day. If you
pass a day you are constipated, and
the result will be that you will catch
cold easily or have a more serious
ailment. To cure the constipation and
forestall still graver trouble, take a
dose Of DR.. Caldwells Syrup Pepsin at
night before retiring and by morn
ing relief will come, without disturb
ance from sleep or any Inconvenience.
Legions of people use 1t regularly In
such emergencies, some of them form
erly chronic invalids who have suf-
fered from constipation all their lives.
Mr.. A. B. Danner, 326 Riley St., Har-
risburg, Pa, says: "Dr. Caldwell's
Syrup Pepsin gave me almost instant
relief from stomach and bowel trou-
BILE. now eat anything l want, and

that they have tried most things rec

REPUBLICAN LEADERS OPEN THE
FIGHT WITH MOVE FOR PUB
Lie COMMITTEE HEARINGS
WOULD RUIN THE BEET SUGAR INDUSTRY
Sees More Ozark Days" as After Viii
son BilI-Senator Smith Asserts New
Measure Is Already Hating Business
Charges Sugar Alliance.

Washington, D. c., May 10.-Repub-
licans of the senate went eagerly into
their fight against the Underwood
tariff bill when it was brought over
from the house today and precipitated
an issue by attempting to override the
decision of the Democrats to consider
the measure without public hearings.
Forerunning the assault that Repub-
licans propose to wage against the
schedules from agate to zinc, Senator
Penrose sought to have the bill re-
ferred to the finance committee with
instructions for public hearings after
Senator Simmons, chairman of the
committee had moved for reference
with instructions. Action on this phase
was pending when the senate adjourn
ed until Tuesday, several Republican
leaders predicting that they would win
their contention and that public hear
lngs would be forced over the heads
of the finance committee. Democratic
leaders, however, disputed this predic-
ton.
Speaking to the Penrose amendment
Senator William Alden Smith of Mich
igan in a vigorous appeal for consid-
Grafton of the bill in the open instead
of "in the darkness and gloom" of the
committee room assailed the tariff
bill. He declared that it would result
in repetition of dark days" that fol-
lowed the Wilson bill, that the sugar
industry would be ruined, that other
industries would suffer and that al
ready business was falling off rapidly
throughout the country.
Charging that free sugar in three
years would give the American Sugar
Refining company and the Federal
Sugar Refining company an option
which they would foreclose on the
property of the beet sugar interests,
their only domestic rivals, Senator
Smith declared that the beet sugar in
dustry, in which $1,000 persons in
Michigan alone were interested,
would be washed out"

FRIEDMAN CURE NOT ACCEPTED
Federal Doctors Say Results of Tests
Don't Justify Confidence.

Washington, May 10-The first au-
thentic and official report of the fed
eral governments investigation of the
Friedman tuberculosis vaccine, made
public here today, declares the results
Of the public health service observa-
lions so far do not justify that con-
fidence in the remedy which has been
inspired by the widespread publicity"
The national Association for the
Study and Prevention of tuberculosis,
before whom the report was presented,
Immediately and unanimously adopted
a resolution declaring that mo spe-
cific cure for tuberculosis has been
discovered that deserves the confid.
ence of the medical profession and the
public" and declaring it to be the duty
of the public to continue all the pres
ent well-tried agencies"
Although couched in the diplomatic
terms of a governmental scientific
document, the report on the Fried,
mann Cure" expresses the disappoint-
ment of the public health service at
the conditions imposed by Friedman
and says his declination to furnish
complete information concerning his
vaccine was mot satisfactory from a
scientific standpoint"
The public health service, however,
the report says, accepted his condi-
lions because of the great Importance
to thousands of sufferers and in the
hope that cure might be found.
The report was made by DR.. John F.
Anderson, director of the hygienic lab
oratory, and DR.. A. NJ. Stimson, a pub
lie health service officer, who were
designated by Surgeon General Blue to
make laboratory tests of the Fried
mann vaccine and observe the ninety
odd tuberculosis patients inoculated in
New York.
The investor points out that, al
though DR.. friedman in his prelim-
mary correspondence offered to lay
full and impartial information before
this government, he declined to do so
after coming here. The observations
Of the public health service will be
continued, however, and the investiga-
tors expressed the opinion that the pa
tients who were inoculated must look
forward to a long period of treatment.

To Clean Rubber.

A rubber coat can be nicely cleaned
by the use Of automobile soap, jel.
lylike substance of dark color, which
can be procured at any automobile
supply store or at garage.
The soap can be used for other
garments also, as it does not injure
the finest finished material, but the
effect seems better on rubberized
goods. The first step in cleaning is
to make strong lather. Clean the
coat thoroughly and then apply the
soap over small portion of the gar.
ment. Carefully wash off the soap
by sponging with clear water and pro-
coed to next space to be cleaned. Dry
out of doors.

WEED HARMFUL TO WOMEN
Scientific Investigation Has Proved
That Tobacco Should Not Be Used
by the Fair Sex.

It seems that at last purely physio-
logical reason has been found why
women should not smoke, apart from
the very general prejudice which ex-
lists In this country.
Smoking" says DR.. Hargrave, a
London physician, does not have the
same effect on women that it does
on men. An imperious necessity felt
by most smokers to satisfy their pas
sion after eating is physiologically ex-
planned by the excitation of the sail
vary glands whose secretions, 80 use
full In digestion, the smoke augments.
Moreover, it has been shown that 1t
sterilizes the saliva and that this is
really beneficial from the viewpoint
Of the possible infection from the
foods themselves.
But with women it Is a serious con-
clusion reached from many expert
ments that few of them need tobacco.
While the proportion of men whose
salivary secretions were stimulated
and sterilized by smoking was very
large, the proportion of women, on the
other hand, was very small Even
in women who have been habitual
smokers for years the action of this
weed was found to be less marked, In
fact, almost negligible"
So apparently DR.. Hargraves is of
the opinion that women should not
smoke, because they do not need it.
