1t is my hope to put spirit into the

BILLY WAITS IN

TRAIN SNOWDOUND

MA. dear, won't you please come
home?" This is the burden of Billy
Sundays song today. as the husband
evangelist awaits the arrival of his
better half with almost boyish i'm
| patience. Ma left Winona Lake yes
terday on a Pennsylvania flyer due in
Washington at $40 this morning.
Train dispatchers at Union Station
reported the express three hours late
at that hour. Billy, who mOtored
down TO the big terminal to meet Ma
at about 11:15 o'clock, thinks that the
train must have lost another hour, for
flyer and Ma" came not.
Its an i'll train that brings no one
back" commented Billy, as he paced
to and fro about the station platform
and watched every express but his
own unload their human cargocs.

vendor OF the news, but de gink
who wrote dat clean forgot to dedi-
cate it to de Pennsy railroad. Must

When Billy was told that there was
no hope Of the stalled trains arrival
for hours yet the evangelist held an
impromptu reception to the crowd
congested about him, and motored
quickly back to Mt Alto Inn.
To Try Again at 5.
Billy thinks It probable that Ma con-
nected at Harrisburg with the Pennsyl-
vania express leaving there at l p. m.
due in Washington at O'Clock. Unless
hearing TO the contrary he will motor
down at that hour and make search

ARMIES Of SATAN
REPORT REPULSE
OF BILLY FORCES

WASHINGTON, Feb. 6.-(With the
Armies OF Satan, Everywhere in the
District)-Attacks by Billy Sunday
were repuIsed along every front after
an intensive artillery cultivation OF
broken fields last night and in the
fighting yesterday afternoon.
We captured numerous OF the
enemy troops in a flanking movement
toward Baltimore which cut off a
division from the main body when
they attempted to turn our fanks in
surprise movement.
Many Of the enemy wcrc killed and
wounded by the fire Of their own
artillery which caught them in the
darkness. The enemy did not know
until today that they had been she'll
ing their own positions.
Along the Pennsylvania avenue and
+ street sector We were particularly
successful, capturing many prisoners
and many guns. Hundreds Of the
enemy are deserving and joining our
ranks. They lack pretty clothing.
paint, powder. silk stockings. and en-
EaECmeHtS for thcatCT parties. We
have inteTned them.
On the west front, toward Chicago
movements Of the enemy artillery
have been noted by our aViatOrS.
Many Of these troop NOV cments We
have broken up BY heavy cross
fire Of temptation.
Immediately following the hottest
of the hEhting last night we cap
turcd many Of the enemy.
Our troops caught them huddled
in great masses in street cars where
il needed but a prod of the bayonet
to make them come over to our side
Cold weather and snow, with a lack

SERMON
IS INTERSPERSED
WITH ANECDOTES

Pure gospel interspersed with lit
tie talks on real life, for which the
evangelist is famous, featured the
sermon this afternoon at the taber-
nac}e.
Billy told intimate little stories of
famous people. like the story OF
Adelina Patti, the worlds famous
soprano OF a few years ago, and the
little Iowa girl who thought she
could sing and asked Patti to hear
her.
Billy said:
"a friend OF mine was taken i'll and
had to go to Chicago for an opera
tion. He asked me OF come out and
preach during his absence, and did.
Mr.. Rodeheaver, who leads the
singing, had been leading the singing
in a big tent, and he called a little
girl to the platform TO sing. 7 don't
think she was over eight, a beautiful
little girl, and L said to myself, No
body can hear that little girl fifty
feet from the platform"
Liquid Sweetness.
But she sang with such sweetness
and wonderfulness that it penetrated
that great tent, and I saw scores Of
people weeping. Her father was an
engineer on q Northwestern train, end
this Iitlo Girl and her mother had
gone to Chicago to attend to shopping
and visit friends, and while there,
Patti was giving concerts at the
Auditorium.
She took this little girl around to
the hotel and said to the world-fam-
Gus prima donna.
"Out in Iowa, people who have
heard my little girl sing, think that
she can sing sweetly, but. of course,
there is no comparison between her
voice and your welI-trained voice,
but thought you might like to hear
her.
And Patti said, I'd be delighted
to hear her
"And she took her to her suite OF
rooms. Then she herself walked TO
the other end and sat down and lis
tened to the little girl. She sang
with such sweetness OF voice and
simplicity that II got tangled up in
PATHS heart strings and the tears
trickled down her cheeks and she
bounded across he room and put her.

Cid Folks Need
"CaScarets" for
Liver, Bowels
Salts, calomeI, pills act on
bowels like pepper acts in
nostrils.
Enjoy life! Don't stay bilious,
sick, headachy end
constipated.
Get a I0-cent box now.

Get a lucent box now.
Most old people must give to the
bowels some regular help. else they
suffer from constipation. The condi-
tion is perfectly natural. 1t is just
as natuTE as it is for old people
TO walk slowly. For age is never
so active as youth. The muscles
arc less elastic. And the bowels
are muscles.
So all old people need CasCarets.
One might as well refuse tC aid
weak eyes with glasses as to neglect
aid 10 weak bowels. The bowels
must he kept active. This is i'm
Dortant at all ages, but never so
much as at fifty.
Age is not a time for harsh
physics Youth may occasionally
whip the bowels into activity. But
a lash can't be used every day.
What the bowels OF the cid need
Is a gentle and natural tonic. One
that can be constantly used with
out haCu. The only such tonic Is
Cascarets, and they cost only 10
cents per box at any drug store.
They work while you sleep.

Then Billy landed a wonder

But Billy, landing his right at will,

sitting and then she said:
Honey, you sit here and listen to
me and let me sing for you, you have
been kind enough to sing for me-
Then Patti walked to where the
little girl had been and put her arms
behind her back and sang The Last
Rose of Summer and Home, Sweet

Her price was $1,000 a song. and she
always knew how many songs she
