SMOKING PROHIBITED

Dignified senators, as they are
called. had an actual laugh when
Senator elect Wheeler of Montana
took u, seat and continued putting
upon an after-dnner cigar. He
was informed by page that smok-
ing was prohibited, and had been
since the days of Zen" Tillman,
to whom smoking was abhorrent
Tie rule is never-ending
source Of joy to anti-tobacco cru
saders, but smokers retort that it
may be responsible for the inactiv-
ity Of lawmakers. At any rate,
smoking is not prohibited in the
cloak rooms, where much of the
business OF the senate is transact
ed.
Both within and without the
rank Of senators, the floor of the
chamber generally is regarded as
the arena where orators are put
through their PAGES and spectacles
are staged. There is testimony to
the effect that persuasive speakers
sometimes sway their hearers, and
win votes for measures, but it is
admitted that most of the theatre
calls are carefully rehearsed.
1t is creditable to the senate that
the rule against smoking is MAIN
tanned. While the individual may
indulge elsewhere, on the floor Of
the chamber there is greater dig
nifty when the faces of the speakers
are not hidden by clouds of tobacco

Some Canadian cabinet ministers
and leading business men are TAX
en- to task by the Vancouver pro-
vince for saying that Canada was
losing population. both native and
new settlers. by emigration to the
United States, and census reports
are quoted to show that Canada in
the last ten years gained a larger
percentage than the United States.
Why should it not be- so? Con-
struction of new railroads through
the Canadian Northwest and lib
eral terms offered for sale of land
attracted great numbers from the
United States before the war, and
there was little emigration from
Canada to this country during the
war No doubt there has been con-
siderable movement across the
boundary in both directions during
the last four years, but the new
farm and oil lands that have been
opened should have held the bal
ance about even.
In former years there was GER
tainly a large movement into the
United States. That was natural
while the Dominion's population
was small and was mostly spread
along a strip extending only few
hundred miles from the boundary.

KIDNEY TROUBLE

"A lameness followed me for some

from kidney trouble. One bottle of
Foley Kidney Pills had the desired
effect" writes H. B. Arbuckle, South
Barre, Vermont. Backache, rheuma-
tism, dull headache, too frequent or
burning urihationa are symptoms of
Kidney and Bladder Trouble. Disor-
dered kidneys require prompt treat
ment. Neglect causes serious COM
plications. Foley Kidney Pills give
quick relief.

~ Pa. by the name of Mr.
"A and Mrs. John States have
just had their first baby boy and
have named him United.
United States is q good name
for q boy to have, but when he
grows up everybody win be bOr-
rowing from him.
It's a good thing for him that
Clemenceau and Lloyd George
don't read the birth notices.
Another thing is that little
United States was born in one Of
our capitals and that's just what
these foreigners are after.
With a. name like that this
Harrisburg baby will have as
much right to the American flag
as George Cohan has.
It's q good thing the kid
wasn't born in 1919 or his folks
might have called him prohibition.
Still, his father and mother
would had to have had seven
teen other. children before he
could be the eighteenth amend
ment.
The old man must feel proud
when he walks down the main
street Of Harrisburg and the peO-
pie point him out as the father Of
United States.
Little United's father has a
brother by the name Of Tom. It's
too bad the kid couldn't have
an Uncle Sam.
With a name like United States
it will be a Federal Offense for
the kids i'm the neighbOrhOd to
punch him i'm the nose.
This baby will have to stay in
America. Can you imagine him
taking up his residence in Europe
and benig referred to as United
States of England?
It's a good thing he's a boy be-
cause look at all the publicity he'll
get. Every mail wagon will have
his name on it.
And every postage stamp will
carry his monogram.
He can also use currency for
calling cards.
He may never have q dollar to
his name but he'll have his name
TO lots of dollars.
Butt will be terrible if he ever
goes through bankruptcy. Can
you imagine the papers coming
out with the statement that United
States is broke?
MIR. and Mrs. States used good
judgment in naming their son
United States because he will grow
mp with independence, but he'll
probably lose it later on by get
ting married.
However, let's hope that little
United States stays single unless
he can marry a girl by the name
Of Miss Liberty.
