Many, many letters similar to the
following recommend the Vegetable
Compound as wonderful medicine for
bringing the mother back to normal
health and strength.
1t is an excellent restorative, con-
tains no harmful drugs and can be
taken in safety by nursing mother.
Thousands of mothers who have re-
gained their strength by taking it
are its best recommendation. Very
likely you know some. Why not take
it yourself?

David P. Dyer in Legal Practice
Sixty-Three YearA
Presided During Sessions of U.
s. District Court Here.
WAS "a YEARS old IN FEB.
His Methods Attracted Much
Attention During Sessions.
Despite His Age He Shows No
Signs of Retiring.

Judge David p. Dyer, who presided
during the recent session of the United
States district court here is said to be
the oldest federal Judge in the United
States. He was S4 years old last Feb
ruary IL, and has been in the legal
practice and on the bench sixty-three
years, having been admitted to the
bar in 1859.
Judge Dyer, whose district as fed
eral judge is in eastern Missouri, re-
siding at st. Louis. presided over the
Topeka district in the absence OF
Judge John c. Pollock. He is man
of impressive personality and his
bench mannerisms being described as
those 'of the old school, attracted
much attention while he was here
A strict disciplinarian, Judge Dyer
lost no time in parrying over tnEtss
nfficant details. Whether addressing
attorneys, court attaches witnesses or
defendants, his words generally were
6ecisively to the point This together
left little or no incentive, especially on
part of attorneys who desired TO pro-
long the cause of their clients, for
controversy.
A Long Legal Career.
Judge Dyer's long legal career has
been largely confined to public office
native of Virginia, he moved to
Missouri with his parents In 1871. He
practiced law in Pike and adjoining
counties until 1875; was made prose-
cutting attorney of the Third Judicial
district in 1850 and moved to st. Louis
to become United States district at
torney in 1875. During the war he
recruited and commanded the Third
Missouri Volunteer infantry. He was
a candidate for governor in 1880; was
delegate to two Republican national
conventions-in 1888 and 1900. He
again was appointed United States dis
trict attorney of eastern Missouri in
1902, which office he retained until
appointed federal judge in 1907. one
of the most noted cases he prosecuted
as federal attorney was the famous
whisky Ring case in 1856.
Despite his age, the judge retains
shows no signs of having to give up
active occupation.

quick-lunch counters. Never was the
truth of the saying so wholly exems
plified as in the person of a waitress
who has been told that you ordered
black coffee.
You are breathlessly glad that the
bread knife is at the other end of the
counter. She makes a swoop at the
offending cup, and you dodge with
your heart in your mouth.
With the air of Grecian goddess
whose shrine has been profaned by
barbarians of the lowest type, she
stages a professional march of Of
Tended majesty back to the end of the
counter. Perhaps there is customer
next you clamoring for coffee with
cream in it. Does he get the cup she
has brought to you by mistake? He
does not. She carries the cup to the
uttermost limits of the counter and
dumps it's contents out.
And with face averted, scorn In
every line of her Quivering figure,
nausea in her countenance, she "draws
one black" and presents it to you.
She slams it down hard, SO that it will
sIop over on the counter, viciou5ly digs
the amount of the damage on the
check, and sops the check thoroly
in the spilled coffee.
And heaven help you If you happen
to want anything else from that
waitress!
It's just the same with a man waiter,
except that he isn't quite so expires.
sive in countenance, carriage and ges-
ture. Maybe he's a little. bit more
savage about it. His conduct indi-
Gates plainly enough that for about
one more crack like that he'd come
over the counter onto your neck and
teach you a few things.
''I serve at least eighty people at
every meal, and some in between. Out
of that number don't think three of
them will ask for black coffee" one
Topeka waiter says.
Man a Creature of Habit.
And since man is pre-eminently a
creature of habit, the waiter or
waitress is not to be blamed for as
suming that you want cream in your
coffee. It is the will of the majority
which has impressed itself SO strongly
on them. that they are logical vehicles
for penalizing the man who dares be
in the minority and want his coffee
black. It is the majority crushing and
overwhelming the minority and the
waiter happens to be the handiest i'm
plement.
If the waiter or waitress brought to
one of the other seventy-seven, a cup
of coffee without cream, the whole
process would be reversed. The out
ragged customer would howl to high
heaven and complain to the manager.
The idea of a waiter or waitress bring
ing him black coffee would be un-
speakabie, atrocious. He never would
eat another bite in that restaurant,
and would tell all his friends about
the treatment he got there.
And since he is seventy-seven to
three, he is the majority, and his will
is law.
He shows 1t in the air of conscious
superiority and condemnation when he
hears you ask for your black coffee.
Another poor nut that oughta be
took care of somewhere" he says to
himself. He pities you and yet
despises you--because you differ from
the majority.

How Shifts Are Arranged.
The "earfy men, shift comes on the
jobs OF 4:30 O'Clock in the morning;
the day men, at 6:45 o'clock in the

o'clock in the evening.
The termination of these shifts IS
so arranged that they will overlap the
peaks which may be expected. The
number of men who show up" on
the extra board is also fixed to pro-
vide for the number of calls which
may be expected
An average days business for the
company'is about 400 calls. Inciden-
tally, for every cali for a taxicab,
we have at least one call for the cor
rect time" Payne says. IT believe
there are really more people call US
to find out what time it IS than to ask
for a cab"
During the heavy rainstorm April
s, some $50 calls were received in ten
hours, and 500 of them were an

The records of the company are
kept 50 closely. that with a knowl-
edge of what the weather conditions
are likely to be, peak loads can be
accurately forecasted, and arrange

ASK FOR REHEARING OF CASE
Lee Judy and Earle r. Gilbert File
Application With Court.


Application With Court.
Application for a rehearing has been
filed with the supreme court by Lee
Judy and Earle r. Gilbert, Kansas
City, Kan, lawyers who recently
brought down most severe condemna-
ton OF the court because OF their pro-
fessional conduct Their trouble grew
out of an effort to force collection on
a contract to sue the Santa Fe rail-
road. In the contract Htigants were
protected against judgment for costs
Gilbert is public administrator in
Wyandotte county. The two men are
law partners. Following an appeal of
the case the supreme court directed
attention of the state bar board to ac-
ton of Judy with view of directing
disbarment. The attorney general was
advised to look into Gilbert's actions
to determine whether custer proceed
ing would not be advisable. The two
lawyers now ask a rehearing of their
case.
I'VE feel sure" says the petition,
that a more complete explanation
of the various circumstances in con-
nection with the case should be con-
sidered by the court as we are both
young lawyers and already have suf-
