Not One of Appropriation
Bills Has Yet Been

FORDNEY TARIFF
MAY GO THROUGH
But Final Disposition of Soldier BOnus
Bill Is Uncertain Immigration and
ReappertiOnment Measures Amang
Others to Receive Attention.

WASHINGTON, Feb I4.-Onlv Is
working days are left to congress before
adjournment sine die and not one of the
regulation appropriation bills has finally
been enacted and practically all import
ant legislation is in the air.
Passage early this week by the senate
of the Fordney emergency tariff bill.
however, is expected to break the lam,
at least of the appropriation measures.
Leaders believe that it still is possible.
with night sessions. to get through all
OF the money bills, with the exception,
possibly, OF the navy and army appro-
priations
The emergency tariff bill is to be given
extensive right of way today i'm the SEN
ate, after calendar call of bills for
passage BY unanimous consent and a
vote on 1t Is expected by tuesday or
" ednesday
The house plans to. pass the last two
apprcDri"+'on bills, the naval and forti-
hcatlons budget, early this week and
clear the way for other legislation and
conference reports. A half dozen aDpro-
pTlatIon bills are awaiting consideration
by the senate, but Drotracted discussion
of the naval supply measure is in pros
pect, with controversy over reduction or
suspension OF the building program i'm
perllling its enactment
miscellaneous measures before the
| house include the resolution for a spec
| lal committee to investigate the escanp
OF Grover Cleveland Bergdoll. draft
dodger. Adoption of the resolution
| early this week is expected. The
packer control bill. the Sheppard Tow
ner maternity and infancy aid bill and
the Smlth-IOwner measure for n fed
eral bureau of education are other i'm
| POrtant measures on the house calendar
which have been made subjects of great
| pressure by supporters and proponents.
Among important bills before the sen
ate are the immigration restriction
} measure and the congressional re.ap.

ment of either Is declared doubtful The

/ ported to the senate this week by the

pOsure on two sides. The corner bed
rooms are large, % by Is feet 6 inches
and II feet 6 inches square. and can be
used as sewing room or library if
the occasion demands.
1t goes almost without saying that
this is a most distinctive farm home
and one that will insure a large amount
Of comfort and satisfaction to the
farmer. his wife and especially his chill
dren. The girls and boys have a real
home in which TO entertain their
friends. There is electric light run
ming water, modern lavatories and
bathroom. A modern heating plant in
the cellar keeps the home comfortable
all year round. If more homes like
this were built on American farms, and
they can be, for they are not very eX-
pensivc, there would he less worry
over farm help and less hue and cry
about keeping the children on the
farm. Human nature is alike the
world over, in that it Graves comfort,
convenience and attractive surround
ings. That is the basis of all honest
ambition.

FIGURE LARGELY IN HISTORY
Animals and Reptiles That Have Been
Held in High Reverence for
Various Reasons.

Perhaps no animal ever butted It's
way into the literature Of childhood
so successfully as Gid Marys little
lamb. and today no animal gets as
much petting and fantastic reverence
bestowed upon it as does the white ele-
plant of Siam. and the elephant in
America has its following. In Slams the
worShipers believe that the soul of a
dead person perhaps of Buddha may
be lodged in the white elephant. Con-
sequently lie is baptized. dined and
wined and mourned at his death
