BLIND VETS VISIT HOUSE
Proceedings Are Halted While Sight
less Member Pays Them Tribute
in Offering Encouragement.

Washington, June S.-The house
halted it's work while Representative
Schall (Rep, Minn.), himself blind,
paid tribute to large delegation of
blind former service men in the gal-
lery, who gave their sight, he said,
as their contribution toward winning
the World war.
mo doubt many Of those brave
blind fellows up there often wish fate
had left them on the battlefield rather
than to have returned them here
sightless," said Mr.. Schall. "Just after
/ became blind l sometimes thought
that way, too. I remember that
friends, meeting me, said they had
heard 1 was dead, and l replied, No,
just blind And then I knew they
said to themselves they would rather
be dead. But l have proved that !
am not dead, and time will prove to
my blind friends with us today that
they are not dead"

To do any kind of work, or to play for
that matter, is next to impossible if you
are suffering from some form of female
trouble. 1t may cause your back CT your
legs to ache, it may make you nervous
and irritable. You may be able to keep
up and around, but you do not feel good.

pound is a medicine for women. 1t is
especially adapted to relieve the cause
of the trouble and then these annoying
pains, aches and 'no good" feelings
disappear.
1t has done this for many, many wo-
men: why not give it fair trial-now.

Why the Cook Wept.

A few weeks ago somebody sent us
heartfelt screed about how some
body had poisoned his dog. We print
ed it. (And, by the way, lot of our
friends thought it was our dog that
had been poisoned and overwhelmed
us with condolences) Now comes
another correspondent who has suf-
fered the same sort of loss. But this
one has found a ray of humor in the
affair.
After the tragedy the household sat
around and grieved. Several members
said nice things f the departed. Then
the cook burst into loud lamentations,
'Why are you crying, Katy?" said
the unfeeling child you used to kick
poor Toto out of the kitchen every
time he came in"
Heaven forgive NE for it," sobbed
the cook. "Sure he was a fine dog.

havin' to wash !''- Cleveland Plain
