Boys LegisIate Against Senatorial
Fire Water and BanefuI
"Soak Book"

WASHINGTON, July 7.-Visitors at
the Senate wing of the Capitol re-
Gently saw such a session as they
probably never will see again. 1t was
the mock session, with the eighteen
pages of the Senate acting the parts
chief of pages, presided in Vice Pres
ident MarshaIls place.
The rules provide that pages shall
not be under IL years of age nor over
Is, and their uniform is a whits
blouse shirt and knee breaches. With
great dignity, save for occasional gig
giles, they introduced bills for appro-
pirate reference" offered resolutions
and answered to the names of Sem
ators when the roll was called. In
the press gallery notes on the pro-
ceedings were taken with becoming
solemnity.
One youngster introduced a bill
that almost broke up the meeting. It
bore the title ITO prohibit Senators
from using firewater, and for other
purposes" Another was entitled "a
bill to relieve a bull pup" 1t was
duly refer red to the committee on
dog fights.
The opposition to these measures
was led by lad named Mccoy, and
he continued his leadership with
great zest until a resolution was Of
ferred directing the Sergeant-at-
Arms to put a Maxim silencer on
Mccoy"
The effectiveness of this parlia-
mentary stroke was increased when
it was noticed that Charles P. Hig-
gins, Sergeant at Arms of the Senate.
was standing in the doorway grinning.
The bane of a pages existence is
little volume known as the soak
book" in which delinquent pages are
soaked with various penalties.
Young Senator" Mccoy was able to
regain all his lost prestige by offer
ing resolution that the soak book
be burned with fire."

Acute Indigestion

Threatens everyone who has any
disturbance of the digestive system
an uncomfortable feeling after
eating is a warning which should
not go unheeded, but Nuxcara
should be taken at once and restore
the digestive organs to a healthy
condition. when there will be no
danger from this often fatal attack.
Nuxcara is guaranteed to be a posi-
tive and certain cure. The distress
after eating is promptly relieved by
a dose of Nuxcara.

Nuxcara

Is a scientific remedy which has
been prescribed by eminent physi-
clans for years with the most graf
flying results in all forms of stom-
ach troubles. Nuxcara was tested
for ten years before offering it to
the world as a positive and certain
cure for indigestion, dyspepsia, ca
tarrh and the many evils following
the poisoning of the system with
toxins from undisested and de-
composing food in the digestive
tracts. One may take digestive
agents and relieve an attack of in
digestion, but the poison generated
through the decomposition of the
undigested food may remain in the
system for days before eliminated.
and furnish the primary cause OF
another attack, besides setting up
structural changes in the organ
isms. Nuxcara is positive and GER
tain; restores the system to perfect
health.

For several years my wife suf-
fered frequent attacks with acute
Indigestion. These attacks in their
alarming frequency became the
dread of my life My wife never
knew what she could eat without
taking the risk of one of these at
lacks. We tried every remedy we
could hear Of with only temporary
relief. Sitting in my office one
morning, feeling very respondent

the terrible suspense over the
alarming condition of my wife, a
friend called my attention to Nux-
cara, the wonderful stomach rene

her without a doubt at once put
her on the treatment with the
most happy results. She is entirely

SABOTAGE
(To Be Continued)

How the Word Acquired Its Present
Meaning.
Your correspondent from Troy who
was unable to find sabotage" IN any
English dictionary, might consult
some recent edition of Elrousse. He
will also find much information In
Emile Pougets lie Sabotage" pub
lished at Paris in 1910, says a letter
to the editor Of the New York Sun.
Twenty years ago in France "sabot-
age" was a slang word to designate
not the act Of making sabots but WORK
executed resentfully, CONNIE a coups
de sabots" Its metamorphosis into
formula of social combat by labor
against capital was speedy In 1897
at the confederated congress Of Tou-
louse, it received official baptism. In
the following year the Rennes con-
gress of labor commended the theory
In 1900 the confederated congress al
Paris voted decisively in favor or II
by III to 76.
Many have noted that sabotage" is
nothing new, but old as the exploita-
ton of labor.
What is go canny?" 1t Is Scotch
phrase to describe a method employed
by laborers to accomplish their pur-
pose without a strike.
If two Scotchmen are walking to-
gether and one goes too fast the other
says: go canny." If laborers think
that their employers are too exactine
they can get some satisfaction by 60
ing easy. BalZac's La Maison Much
ingen" gives a vivid picture Of the la
Dor riots at Lyons in 1881, and the
retalitory spirit of the workmen
which in these days would be called
sabotage"
In the Partisan magazine Mercure OF
February 16, 1918, there was an al
lusion to the translation Of Carlyle's
French Revolution by Jules Roche
as a sabotage"

Dick Glider. II tell you those tapes
tries are worth a million cold"
Mary's answer was virulent in its
sudden burst Of hate.
You stool pigeon! You did this for
Burke!"
"I swear I didn't! I swear it,"
TITS a frcmcupi" Carson broke In
ferociously. His tones ccme in dead
ened roar of wrath.
On the instant, aware that further
subterfuge could be Of no avail, Griggs
swaggcrcd defiance. .-
"And what If 1t is true?" he drawled
with a resumption Of his aristocratic
manner He plucked the police whis-
tie from his waistcoat pocket and
raised 1t to his lips.
He moved too slowly. Carson had
pulled the pistol from his pocket. had
pressed the trigger. There came no
squirt Of flame. There was no sound
save perhaps ;. faint clicking noise.
But the man with the whistle at his
lips suddenly ceased movement, trem-
bled horribly and in the next instant
crashed to the floor, dead.
In the first second Of the tragedy
Dick had not understood. But the
falling of Griggs before the leve.ed
weapon of the other man. there to lie
in that ghastly immobility, made him
understand. He leaped toward Carson

the others grasp. In the struggle II

Before either could pick it up Chica-
go Red called his warning.
Somebody's opening the front
door,"
Carson sprang to the octagonal win
dow as Dicl took possession Of the pis-
tol.
THE streets empty! We must jump
for it! Come on, Mary" he cried.
Already Chicago Red had snapped
off the lights of the chandelier, had
spr' .ng to the window, thrown open
panel of it and had vanished into the
night, with Dacey at his heels. AS
Carson would have called out to the
girl again he was interrupted by Dick:
"She couldn't make 1t, Carson" he
declared coolly and reso.utely. You
go. I'll take care of her!"
"If she's caught There was an
indescribable menace in the forger's
half uttered threat.
"She won't be-"
IF she is, I'll get you, that's all, !"
Carson said as he dropped out of
sight.

Il should say not!" ....
It's a trick! Burke's done it,
Mary's word came with accusing ve-
hemence.
There was another single step made
by Griggs toward the door.
Mary's eye caught the movement
and her lips soundlessly formed the
name:
"Griggs!" .
The man strove to carry off the sit
uation, though he knew well that he
stood in mortal peril. He came lit
tie toward the girl who had accused
him Of treachery.
Hes lying to youi" he cried forci-
bly,, with a scornful gesture toward

the wrong he had done me. I wouldn't
let myself even think of you, and then
Il realized that / had spoiled your
life"
mo, not spoiled it, Mary! Blessed
tt! We must prove that yet"
Yes, spoiled it," the. wife went on
passionately. IF had understood, II
I could have dreamed that could ever
care Oh, Dick, would never have
married you for anything in the
world"
But now you do realize" the young
man said quietly. THE thing is done
If we made mistake it is for us to
bring happiness out of that error"
"Oh, can't you see?" came the
stricken lament I'm a jailbird."
But you love me-you do love me
1 know" The young man spoke with
joyous certainty, for some infection OF
her voice had told the truth to his
heart. Nothing else mattered. But
now, to- come back to this hole were
in here. Don't you understand at last
that you can't beat the law? If you're
caught here tonight where would you
get off-caught here with a gang OF
burglars? Why didn't you go to Chi

Planned? With whom?'

Burke himself did"
"When?" Mary was standing rigit
now, and the rare color famed in hel
cheeks. Her eyes were blazing.
Less than an hour ago"
"Where?"
I'm this ROOM"
What was he doing here?'
Talking to my father"
The seemingly simple answer ap-
peared the last straw to the girls bur-
den Of frenzied suspicion. Her voice
cut fiercely into the quiet of the room
Joe, turn on that light! l want tc
see the face of every man in this
room."
The blaze of the chandelier famed
brilliantly over all. Griggs moved
stealthily little nearer the door into
the passage.
But Mary's next words came wholly
as a surprise.
Dick" she cried, what are those
tapestries worth?" She pointed toward
the draperies that shrouded the great
octag g)nal window.

of the passage door turning. AS the
door swung open there came gasp
ing breath from Mary, for she saw
framed in the faint light that came
from the single burner in the corridor
the slender form Of her husband, Dick
Glider. --. -
The next instant he had stepped
within the room and Chicago Red had
pounced on his victim, the huge hand
clapped tight over the young mans
mouth. There came a sound Of scuf-
fling feet, and that was all. Finally
the big mans voice came trium-
phantly:
1--we got him."
'It's Dick!" The cry came as wall
OF despair from the girl.
At the same moment Carson flashed
his torch, and the light fell swiftly on
young Glider, bowed to a kneeling
posture before the couch. half throt-
tied by Chicago Red. Close beside
him, Mary looked down in wordless
despair over this final disaster Of the
night.
Carson retired a step farther be-
fore he spoke his command, so that,
though he held the torch still, he, like
the others, was in shadow.
"Get away, Red"
The fellow let go his grip.
Freed from that strangling en-
brace, Dick. stumbled blindly to his
feet. Then, mechanically, his hand
went to the lamp on the table back
of the couch. When the mellow light
streamed forth he uttered an ejacula-
ton Of stark amazement, for his gaze
was riveted on the face Of the woman
he loved.
Good Cod" 1t was a cry Of tor
ture wrung from his soul Of souls.
Mary swayed toward him little
palpitant with fear-fear for herself
for all Of them, most of all for him.
Hush, hush," she painted warning
ly. "Oh. Dick, you don't understand!

from the big chest of Chicago Red.

young man warned. Suppose

"You would only call once," Gar
son said grimly. His hand went to the

half laugh. He turned to the other
men and spoke q command.

Dick spoke at once, with hesltancy
