WRITING in PUBLICITY,
SOLONS ROB SELVES
House Passes Amendment to Kill
Mileage Grab" and Turns Down
Secretaries Increase.
VOTED OTHERWISE in SECRET

The mileage grab" was done to death
in the House of its friends today. BY
vote of 80 to 95, members of the House
incorporated an amendment in the legis-
lative bill providing that hereafter Sen
ators and Representatives shall be paid
their actual travelling expenses instead
OF being allowed 20 cents a mile, as at
present. Members voted in silence and
did not applaud when the result was
announced.
The other day, on a test vote in COM
mittee OF the whole, which was not re-
corded. the House boisterously spurned
the amendments reported by the apprO-
priations committee knocking out the
mileage grab. Today, when members
were forced to 20 on record. they re-
Versed their previous action and In sad
ness adopted the committee amendment.
1t now costs the government about S20O.-
900 a year to bring the lawmakers from
their homes and send them back upon
the completion of their labors II the
Senate concurs in the House amendment
a saving of about $4,000 a year will be
effected.
Compelled again to go on record. the
House members also reversed themselves
on another proposition in which they
are vitally concerned. Last week they
voted to increase the salaries of their
secretaries from $3.50 to Sl.S0o a year.
This also was done in committee OF the
whole. ScandalmOngers often have as
serted that some members pocket a part
OF the allowance made for secretaries.
The amendment increasing the compen-
sation of members secretaries was car
ried in committee amid scenes of hilarity.
Hilarity was not present today, how
ever. when the House turned down this
particular amendment by a vote of l61
to I1. This action will save the govern
ment something like 10000 a year.
Incensed with tho committee that forced
action on these amendments, the House
then turned in its wrath and made an
increase of $4,000 for the maintenance of
the Childrens Bureau. The Appropria-
tions Committee asked for $1,000 for this
bureau. The House increased the amount
to SlS5 OOO over protests by Chairman Fitz-
gerald and other members Of the COM
mittee.
The legislative bill was passed and
now goes to the Senate. Four other sup
ply measures remain to be passed. They
are the naval bill, which was taken up
today. the civil bill. the pension bill.
and the general deficiency bill.

The Narrative.
Today We take up the sequence Of our
scheme OF lessons, returning to the point
where We left 1t two weeks ago. In that
lesson We listened to our Lords criticism.

great multitudes followed Him, and turn
ing He uttered to them some of the Sc
verest things, and yet the most wonder
full in many ways, that ever fell from His
lips.
He first challenged them, laying down
the severest possible terms of disciple

others He must empty himself complete
Iy in his fellowship with his Master in
the work OF redeeming men. and estao-
fishing the kingdom OF God.
After the explanation He repeats thess
claims in the inclusive formula which de-
cIares that unless a man renounces all
that he has-kindred, life, ease. rights
he cannot be His disciple.
Now it is of the utmost Importance that
We recognize that the explanation OF al,
this is to be found in the purpose OF
discipleship. Discipleship means cooper
alton. The work of the King is twofold.
that Of building and OF battle. Those who
follow Him be for evermore equipped
with trowel and sword. They must be
prepared TO sink all interests in that OF
the building. and to devote all strength
to the warfare As We have already said,
the changed figure but serves to empha-
size this truth. In His manifesto He had
declared that His disciples were to be the
salt of the earth. The only value OF salt
is that OF its SAVIOUR. II that is lost. it Is
absolutely useless. fit neither for land
nor for dunghill.
We must never allow ourselves to imaC-
inc that these sayings of Jesus are IN
conflict with those more tender utter
ances in which He calls all men to Him
self for rest. These but emphasize the
ultimate meaning o, disciploship. The
weary and the wounded and the woebe-
gone He will welcome as they are. hut
with the intention. not merely OF giving
them rest. and healing them, and filing
them with Joy. but of making them work
ers together with Himself.
The Golden Text is taken from Mat
thew. and remarkably from exactly ths
same mental and spiritual atmosphere.
The words were spoken at Caesarea Phil
ippi. Peter had made his great confess
sion. and the Lord had Immediately re-
vealed the same twofold aspect OF His
work. II will build My church. The
gates of hades shah not prevail against
it," Here again We have building ana
battle. The thought which the Golden
Text adds to t'.c meditation is that In
fulfilling the larger purpose of the Lords
intention, we fulfll the smaller one OF
realizing our ow: rights. He does not
destroy His fellow-worEers. As they
consent to lose themselves in answer to
His call. they find their life in all its
fullneSs.

while II was a great wrong to CO.

TO do with the main issue Of the -ques-
tion.
I'VE put into that soil 100000, and
we will have to dig up more for 1t. SO
why sheuld the people be treated so un-
justly and be denied free tolls?
Dcplorcs Presidents Position.
Il cannot help expressing my regret at
the position President Wilson has taken,
because l spoke in his campaign and
helped to elect him. l cannot blind
myself to tine fact that II I sustained
him in this I would be doing a great
wrong to MY country"
IF the President will turn around and
acknowledge to the people that his posi-
ton is wrong the people might nominate
him again. but il he docs not acknowl-
edge his mistake and should by any
chance be nominated. there would be
the greatest defeat at the polls in the
history of the Democratic party, and
that is saving lot.
Il hope to speak before the committee
in few days and tell them a few things,
too. Free coastwise trade would lessen
the cost of food. and that is what every
woman OF this country would be glad to
see.
why, il costs so much TO eat now,"
and DIR. Walker laughed. when women
wake up at night that is all they can
think about. and half of them can't get
to sleep at all for worrying how they are
going TO meet the next grocery bill.
Food is even a greater problem with
women than clothes, but if the cOastwise
trade is made free, the food problem will
be solved. and | am not worrying about
the clothes problem. Women will come
to their senses in a few years and will
all. like me. don the pants"
