uNAIDED BY ATTORNEY
MRS. FIELD CONTESTS
EJECTMENT PROCEEDINGS

Waving her hands before the court
and shaking her fists at her opposing
counsel, Mary A. Templeton Field, for
merly of Washington, d. c., presented
the statement of her case, examined,
cross-examined and recross-examined
witnesses and made her argument be-
fore Judge Fox this morning in circuit
court. The scene was one that had
never before been enacted in the
Wayne circuit court, and so amused
were the lawyers and court attaches
that the court room was in an uproar
as she began to lay down the law to
Judge Fox.
The woman came to Richmond sew
eral months ago and rented a suite of
rooms in the Wayne flats, owned and
managed by the Louck & Hill COM
pany. No sooner had she rented the
suite than she placed an advertisement

rOoms," she told the court.
Firm Cites Contract.
1t was alleged by the Louck & Hill
company that the womans contract
stated specifically that the rooms
could not be sub-let. She, however,
refused to comply with the request to
remove her belongings from the build
ing, and an ejectment suit was brought
against her in justice of the peace
court. The case was appealed to the
circuit court.
Mrs Field applied to several lawyers
in Richmond for advice, but was in
formed that the contract was plain on
the subject, and that she had no

MethodS Prove Boomerang.
The Connersville candidate is re-
garded as political adventurer by
the Democratic voters as a whole;
also they believe that his re-nomina-
tion will be equivalent to Republican
victory at the polls next November. A
of distortion of facts direct
ed against Lontz by the Gray organ
izatiOn has acted as boomerang in
favor of Lontz, according to reports
received from every section of the dis

Dispose of Minor Details.

The senators rose and stood i'm
solemn silence as the chaplain prayed
for guidance when the Senate con-
vened. Senator Stone asked that the
reading of the daily journal be sus-
pended and the senate proceeded to
clean up minor details or routine busi-
ness
Senator Smith of Michigan, sought
to present petition in the form of a
telegram relating to the Gore resolu-
tfon. He wanted it read, but Senator
Stone objected and the petition went
to the foreign relations committee.
The tension was relieved by hys-
terical laugh that swept floors and gal
leries when the senate received a re-
port from tie District of Columbia
committee on a bill to close the barber
shops of Washington on Sunday.

Senator McCumber halted the pro-
ceedings to present a proposed amend

vent the reading of the amendment
which Was IN the nature of substitute

Americans had the right to travel on
belligerent ships, it was their duty not
to exercise their rights. There was
no possibility of action on the substi-
tute.
The Gore resolution was laid before
the Senate at the request of Senator
Stone. Senator James of Kentucky,
moved to lay the motion on the table

two great stars shone together. their exceeding brilliance making the lights of the other stars ashamed, so that those two flashed alone from the clear sky. That was what We saw, and il was a marvellous thing that we could see them thus, for one was the great. est star of all, Jupiter, and the other was the most beautiful of all, Venus and Venus was a hundred million miles from us, and Jupiter five times as far as from us, and four times as far from Venus. And still, there they were, so close together that it seemed we could have taken them both in one beauty and light is very far beyond our understanding, and 400, 900, coo miles in the space of a hands breadth is likewise incomprehensible. But we saw 1t as a simple. perfect thing. two stars in a winter sky. Two stars in a winter sky-and suddenly we felt a greatness more vast than 500, GOO, ,00C miles, even 500. .000, 900 miles of beau. ty and light. The snow and the win. ter air and the quiet houses were . part of it. We were a part of it. A flash of the understanding of great. ness is worth many little days and nights And the mystery of it was that we saw the greatest stars as lit. tie things. and thus felt their great ness and ours and the greatness of all things.-Exchange.

Just as coal. when it burns, leaves behind a certain amount of incombus- tible material in the form of ashes, so the food and drink taken day after day leaves in the alimentary canal a cer- tain amount Of indigestib!e material. which If not completely eliminated each day, becomes food for the mil lions of bacteria which infest the bow els. From this mass of leftover waste material. toxins and ptomaine-like poi sons. called uric acid, is formed and then sucked into the blood where it continues to circulate. collecting grain by grain in the joints of the body much like rust collects on the hinge as shown above.
 Men and women who suffer from lumbago, rheumatism or sore, stiff. aching joints should begin drinking phosphated hot water, not as a means to magic relief from pain. but to pre- vent more uric acid forming in the system. Before eating breakfast each morning. drink a glass of real hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in t. This will first neu- tralize and then wash out of the stom-

 The roof is made up of rafters. 2 by 6, covered with sheathing. and on top of that is placed prepared roofing. which may be had in various forms. The inside is finished the same as the walls, and here also wallboard is be- coming more and more popular.
 An alley is built the length of the house. behind the pens. A door is built in each pen so that they can be en- tered from the alley. which makes it possible to readily clean all the pens. The concrete floor is made level and each pen is provided with a platform which holds the straw and keeps the pigs from lying down on the cold con- crete. The platforms can be taken up and hung on pegs or nails in the wall when the pens are to be cleaned. Each pen is also equipped with a guard rail. so that the young pigs in the filters are protected.
 The partitions between the pens are made in several different ways. Some men prefer the solid partition. as they say that it is easier for the pigs 10 keep warm in the cold weather. Other men make an open partition and keep the house well filled with hogs to pro vide the warmth. The partitions are generally made removable. so that two pens can be made into one if desired.
