Representative Phil" Campbell of
Kansas is the proud father of
young daughter who likes unusual
pets. In her young life she has Law
ished affections on all sorts of queer
pets, her latest acquisition being a
chameleon-one Of those tiny reptiles
which assume the color of any arti-
Gle on which they are placed. The
chameleon has u tiny gold chain
about its neck, and at the other end
Of the chain is a pin, that 1t may be
attached to ones waist.
Not long ago one Of Campbell's
constituents, a cattle dealer, with
scarcely an interest in the world out
side of livestock, came to Washing
ton and called at the Campbell home.
Mrs. Campbell was out, and Campbell
himself was in the tub at the time,

chameleon pinned to her waist,
marched into the parlor to entertain
