High Pressure Days

Men and women alike have TO work
lucessantly with brain and hand 10
uold their own nowadays. Never
we're the demands of business, the
wants of the family, the requirements
OF society, more numerous. The
first effect of the praiseworthy effort
to keep up with all things is common
~ seen in q weakened or debilitated
condition Of the nervous system,
which results in dypepsia, defective
nutrition of both oody and brain, and
in extreme cases in complete nervous
prostration. 1t is clearly seen that
what is needed is what viii sustain
the system, give vigor and tone to Inc
nerves, and keep the digestive and
assimilative functions healthy and
active. From personal knowledge,
we can recommend Hood's S arsa-
parilla for this purpose 1t acts on all
the vital organs, builds up the whole
system, and fits men and won3@n for
these higher pressure days (AIveT-

CITY SERVED
WITH PAPERS
TODAY
JUDGE STILES BELIEVES
F1REMEN NOT WITHIN
JURISDICTION OF THE
EIGHT-HOUR.

Papers were served by Attor-
neys Bone & Wright today on the
city of Tacoma, Commissioner
Mills and Fire Chief McAlevy in
the suit started by them for the
city firemen to enjoin the city
from working firemen longer
than eight hours a day.
Judge Stiles, the city attorney,
was inclined to make light of the
case. He said the firemen work
on salary by the month and are
not within the scope of the eight
hour law.
The plaintiffs think differently,
however, and are willing to carry
the matter to the supreme court
to see who is right about it.

Andy Gunderson, assistant city
electrician, was on the carpet
again before the council this
morning. Some time ago he was
UP charged with working for the
city while holding a contract on
the transmission line from Hans
Peterson. He said then he had
no contract.
This morning Mayor Seymour
brought the evidence in a law
suit tried in Seattle before the
council giving the testimony of
Gunderson in court there to the
effect that he had the contract
with Hans Peterson for the
transmission line.
Il want to say that Gunderson
came before this body before and
lied to u.s." said the mayor.
Gunderson said nothing.
And l have it from reliable
authority that as late as last
August, after he was working for
the city, he still held this con-
tract and paid off the men with
his own cheeks said the mayor.
IF he has been doing that he
has no business working for the
city," saiG Mills.
And Gunderson went back to
work.

This is the advertisement
which appeared in Seattle
newspaper seven years ago, and
which Mrs. Eta Rocco of 92I
South E street, Tacoma, an
swered at the time.
The result was a common law
marriage between herself and
Brown.
There were several children as
the result of the common law
marriage, two Of them being
Anon G. Brown and Ernest
Brown, who are now four and
five years or age.
Brown failed to support the
woman who had answered his az
vertisement, and Mrs. Rocco
washed and scrubbed that she
and her family of little ones ana
their father might live.
At last, no longer able to en-
dure the burden, Mrs. Rocco
asked the juvenile authorities FOR
assistance. Brown was driven
from the home and Anon and
Ernest were placed in a home
supported by Pierce county.
Mrs. Roceo's work finally took
her to Seattle.
While she was there, Brown
appeared before Judge Chapman,
and obtained an order giving him
the custody of the little boys
Anon and Ernest. The mother
was not notified of this action
until Brown had spirited the chill

CHICAGO HAS HOTTEST, SPLASHlEST
"CHARlTY BALL" HUMANS EVER SAW
by Idah McGlone Gibson.

by luan NcOlOnc uiDSOn.
CHICAGO, Jan. 15.-My eyes
have been dazzled by the most
gorgeous costume ball ever pulled
off in America. Never, l believe,
has American society Haunted Its
wealth in such magnificence. The
chosen sons and daughters of
Chicago were there, and lots Of
sons and daughters from other
cities were also there to help swell
the dazzling display of riches.
1t was the Charity Ball. All
the priceless jewels and costly
silks and music and lights and
champagne were for the beneflt
of the poor.
l will tell you about the ball,
and what the poor got out of it.
1t was an "Abrian Nights" ball,
and most of the women hailed
the chance of wearing trousers
with delight.
From hundreds of luxurious
limousines alighted women en-
veloped in the velvets and furs
of the modern western world.
These were quickly DOTTED to
disclose the opulence and mag
nificence of the Orient as it is
dreamed by the modern Chicago
multi-millionaire.
Under the brilliancy of
hundreds of yellow shaded
electric lights, and caught
here and there in the beams
of FOUR SPOT LIGHTS
which continually circled the
room, THE SPARKLE OF
JEWELS WAS BLINDING.
Mrs. Joseph E. Coleman, one Of
the executives of the affair, wore
a wonderful costume, that looked
as though it were all made of
pearls. The loose fitting tunic
shimmered with them, and she
carried a feather fan set in an
Oriental handle mounted with
pearls. Her head-dress was COM
posed of bird of paradise with
huge pearl ear muffs and pear
shaped pendants, and about her
neck were three magnificent
ropes of these most costly
jewels.
All the other women were at
tired in the same magnificence.
Or as nearly as they could ap-
proach it.
And did they dance the Tango?
They certainly did and all the
other ragtime dances that society
has stolen from the tenderloIn.

then juvenile officer for the
county.
Read never served the papers
and for nearly two and a half
years Mrs. Rocco has been unable
to see her two children who are
with Brown in Portland.
Sheriff R. w. Jameson looked
up the order for the return OF the
Rocco-Brown children, and took
it with him to Portland with the
intention of bringing pack to
their mother the two little boys
who have been the prisoners of
their father for mere than two
years.
Sheriff Jameson left for Port
