LITTLE BENNy'S NOTE BOOK
BY LEE PAPE.

Clenliniss is next to Godliniss> be-
ing the name reason wy people take
baths weather they need them es-
peshilly or not. Some people think
one bath week is plenty, vile others
take bath every morning and still
done look satisfied. This proves the
more people get the more they wunt.
Wat fun it is to splash GROUND
In a tub half full of wattir,
But beware the effecks on the bath
room floor
II you splash more than you awter!
The ony things necessary for good
bath is soap, wattir, towels and a lock
on the bathroom door. If the soap
floats 1t is a crate satisfaction not to
haff to feel for it wen you drop it in
the wattir, but wen 1t falls out on the
floor it don't make eny diffrents
weather 1t floats or not, you haff to
put one leg out after it Jest the same.
II you are forced to take a bath
But the thawt strikes you with pane,
Jest close your eyes in a shower bath
And ina CINE you're out in the rane.
Satidday mite is considered the best
time to take a bath, proberly on ac-
count of the next day being Sundey
and you don't haff to get up erIy in
case it hasa bad effeck If there are
sevrel people in the family. SOME of
them prefer to take their bath Sundey
morning insted of losing sleep by wait
ing on Satidday mite.
A hot bath is one OF the most COM
Portable sensations there is, and it
would be easy to go 20 sleep in one,
but enybody that tried to go to sleeB
in a, cold bath wouldent be considered
sensible, to say the least.

time when certain nations maintained

soldiers. a similar system has ap-
peared in the field of labor. There is
in Italy society or union composed of

cratic basis, and hire themselves out in
varying numbers for public and pri-

A tirnid and bashfuI young girl
moaned to me the other day that she
never knew what to say to people.
To which I replied:
My child, there's just one infallible
rule for dealing with your fellow crea-
lures. It's a very old rule. and it is
Called the Golden Rule, and it works
just as effectually conversationally as
it does ethically.

If your words bring a kindly glow to
your own heart, and make the day
seem brighter and cheerier, do not
doubt, that they will have the same
happy effect on any one else to- whom
you hand. out that~optimistic fine of
chatter.

one soothes all. and conversely, the
thing that irritates one and hurts and
wounds one wounds all.
That is why it is always safe to
take your own little self as a. pretty
reliable guide in deciding what yol
shall say, and refrain from saying, 20

Would Have Congress Limit Funds. To
Be Spent in Campaigns.

Chicago, June 3.-Governor Frank
.. -Lowden of Illinois. Republican can
didate for the presidential nomina-
ton, today declared for congressional
action to define the purposes limit
the amount and force an accurate dis
closure, under proper penalties, of the
source of all contributions and to
whom paid and for what purpose
spent"
Lowden declared the present cam
paign system responsible for condi-
tions resulting in the senate campaign
investigation.
The support of two Missouri dele
gates said to have received $2,50e each
from Lowden's fund, was flatly re-
fused in a statement issued by the
governor.
He declared the two delegates unfit
to sit in the convention. Lowden's
statement explained the money alleged
to have been given the two delegates
was intended for organization of dis
tricts and payment was before the men
were elected delegates.
