SOLON DEFENDS
ST. ELIzABETH'S
La Guardia Says Press
Criticism of Asylum is
Not Warranted.

That criticism of the Government
Hospital for the Insane has not
been warranted. was the statement
made yesterday in the House by
Representative La Guardia, of New
York.
Mr.. La Guardia stated that he had
recently visited the asylum and did
not believe that conditions were
such as have been described in New
York and Washington newspapers.
There are, he stated. about 1.400 SOL
diers in the institution, the majority
of whom are under observation for
some slight mental disorder and
none of them suffering from shell
shock.
The discussion rose in connection
with the $4,000 item for repairs at
the hospital, contained in the sec
ond House deficiency bill. Repre-
sentative Mann stated that he had
been told that soldiers, inexperf-
enced in the care OF sufferers from
mental troubles, had been detailed
to care for patients at the hospital.
He pointed out that the government
had provided sufficient funds to
care for the men and that il was a
serious mistake to place such cases
in the hands of inexperienced men.
Representative Mondell came to
the defense of the institution and
the present administration, insisting
that the, equipment of the hospital
was the best in the country and that
the institution itself was one of the
best managed in the United States.

hydroplane from the local base sue
cessfully carried cargo dashed to
the wing of a plane.

Earl was nabbed and it was dis
covered that he was a desertsr.
If he had shown sense enouah to
get a civilian suit in some other

But because he stole a suit and
then acted mean about it he got
into serious trouble
The naval authorities are very
anxious to take the young man ana
court-martial him.
Judge McMahon allowed them to
take him with the understanding
that he would be properly punished.

George Brown hadn't had a drink
for so long that his throat was act

thirst.
He had been working in a lunch
room where there is plenty of heat
and grease.
He used to work with a circus in
the capacity of a chambermaid to an
elephant.
He went over to Baltimore We'd

and one quart of whisky.
Coming back, he was refused per-

He managed to hop an auto coming
this way.
He was so picked when he reach

His explanation did not satisfy

shame on You, Girls

About a year ago, Octavia Scott
and Anne Marshall had scrap
about a flat Anne rented which was
then in possession of Octavia.
Last Sunday morning Octavis
came by Anne's house with a dog.
The dog ran on Anne's porch.
"Ef you kicks nah dog. you will
halter kick me. too" Octavia said
to Anne, when the latter shooed the
brute away.
"'Didja say you wuz gwine murder
me?" asked Anne
Then the fuss started anew. Both
women said unkind things to each
other.
The result was that Anne had
Octavia arrested for making threats.
The women live near each 'other
on Hanover street and it appears
from the testimony that one of them
should move away.
The court could easily see what
was the matter. Anne called Oc-
tavia names, it seems, and OctaYia
called Anne names.
IF you will both mind your own
business and not go around looking
for trouble" the court told them,
there will beAno occasion for either
of you to come to court. Case dis

In Dear Old Georgetown.
Tom TrammePs wife says he drinks.
His mother-in-law says the same
thing and so does Eis sister-in-lsw
and brother-in-law.
And when lie does drink, said all
four, he is very abusive 70 his wife.
Tom was the cause of Richard Gray,
the brother-inIaw, being arrested for
as sault.
Gcorret.wn was quite upset when q
scrap between Gray and TreEarC! took
place.
Tom asked. his wife TO come down
stairs and get his supper. She said
she would do so after awhile.
Tom waited a few minutes, ard
then went upstairs to bring her down.
1t was then that Richard putted in
and handed Tom one in the jaw.
If Tom had been sober, his wife
said, she would have come down right
away. but she knew what she was up
against when she hesitated.
Judge Mcmahon could easily see
what was wrong. Whisky was at the
bottom of IL all.
Richard was allowed to go free
without any punishment.
Oh, MIR. Daniels.
Sometime ago Earl Tollfeson. g
sailor, left his ship without asking
Secretary Daniels permission.
He came to Washington, swiped
a suit of clothes and visited a pool
room.
The man who owned the suit came
in and recognized ii.
Gimme me my suit" he asked
Earl. What right you got takin'
my things, anyhow"
IF you go actin hard about it,
I won't give you your suit at ALL"
replied Earl, putting a little chalk
on his cue.

An Attack Of Influenza
Often Leaves Kidneys
in Weakened Condition

Doctors in all parts of the country
have been kept busy with the epi-
demic of influenza which has visited
so many homes.
The symptoms of this disease are
very distressing and leave the sys-
tenn in rundown condition. AL
most every victim complains of lame
back and urinary troubles which
should not be neglected, as these
danger signals often lead to danger
Gus kidney troubles. Druggists re-
port a large sale on DIR. Kilmer's
Swamp-Root which so many people
say soon heals and strengthens the
kidneys after an attack of grip.
Swamp-Root, being an herbal COM
pound, has a gentle healing effect on
the kidneys, which is almost immedi-
ately noticed in most cases by those
who try it. DR.. Kilmer & Co., Blng-
hamton, n. Y, offer to send sample
size bottle of Swamp-Root on receipt
on ten cents, to every sufferer who
requests it. A trial will convince any
one who may be in need of it. Regu-
lar, medium and large size bottles
for sale at all druggists. Be sure to

Maurer Expresses
Radical View Of
the Labor Congress

Chicago, Jan. 1.-THE committee
on resolutions of the National Labor
Congress Is scheduled to make its
report to-day, after which the con-
vention will adjourn. The report, II
is said, will recommend the adoption
of the program of the International
Workers Defense League for the
liberation of Thomas j. Mooney and
Warren Billings.
The extreme radicals had control
of the sessions yesterday.
James II. Maurer, president of the
Pennsylvania Federation of Labor
and vice chairman of the conven-
ton, expressed the radical view
when he said:
There are some things for this
convention to do that is more i'm
portant, than the Mooney case.
While President Wilson is at the
peace conference to free the poor
slaves of Europe he will not forget
to do something to free the poor
wage slaves at home. We are going
to stay. here and finish this job IL
it takes all year. If you are a good
revolutionist you will not do any
thing to obstruct this new radical
movement. The day has passed
when officials can railroad man to
the gallows because of his opin-
ions"

BkEW This TEA
FOR BILIOUSNESS
Costs next to nothing, yet keeps
bowels in fine order and
ends constipation.

The head of every family hat val
ues its health should always have in
the house a package of DR.. Carter's
X. and Is. Tea.
Then when any member of the fam
liver, sick headache, or to promptly
regulate the bowels, simply brew a
cup and drink it just before bedtime.
It's an old remedy, is Dr. Carter's X.
and B. Tea, and has been used for
years by thousands of families, who
get such good results from its use
that they have no desire to take any
thing else.
Give it to the children freely-they
like it and il will do them good.
