The dry spell was added to Mr..
Fixit's calculations today with a re-
quest for water extensions in a new
iy settled location. The letter:
DEAR MR.. FIxIT: We can only
have dug wells in our addition on
account of the hard ground and our
wells go dry every summer. We
have asked for water, but have never
had any results. We are carrying
water now for one square. The
paper said Wallace st. was going to
have water from Tenth to Thirteenth
SITS. We are only two lots away
from Wallace on Eleventh ST. and
would more than appreciate 1t, if
you would try and help us get the
water. The family next door is out
of water too. r. r. w.
Elmer Williams, secretary Of the
board Of works. suggests you OBJ
tain signatures of your neighbors
to a petition to present to the
board requesting extension of
water mains. That is the regular
procedure. However, are you
sure there are enough homes on
your street to persuade the board
the necessity exists for extension?
Dear Mr.. Fixit Could we have
something done to Alton Ave. north
Of Tenth st. The street has been
open for more than two years. 1t
was graded last year but not this
year. A lot of machines pass and
the dust is awful. A few cinders
would help a lot.
AN ALTON AVE. CITIZEN.
w. P. Hargon, Clerk of the street
commissioners department, SAID he
would ask Frank Reid to make a
special investigation with Wow
of grading and oiIing the thorough
fare. The supply Of cinders is
exhausted.

DEAR MR.. FIXIT: Would you
be so kind as to get the city to oil
Pleasant St. east between tarlan
and st. Paul SITS. The dust is some
thing awful. There are several old
folks and sick people that live there,
and they can't stand it. The wind
blows through and makes it awful
for them in the house. Please help
us get after them at once. I am a

weeks before the street is reached.

HOW DOCTORS TREAT
COLDS AND FLU

To break up cold overnight or
to cut short an attack of grippe, in
fluenza, sore throat or tonsillitis,
physicians and druggists are now
recommending Calotabs, the puri-
fled and refined calomel compound
tablet that gives you the effects of
calomel and salts combined, without
the unpleasant effects of either.
One or two Calotabs at bedtime
with a swallow of water,-that's all
No salts, no nausea nor the slightest
interference with your eating, work
or pleasure. Next morning your
cold has vanished, your system is
thoroughly purified and you are
feeling fine with hearty appetite
for breakfast. Eat what you please
no danger.
Get a family package, containing
full directions, only 80 cents. At
any drug store.

She She closed the door as the
girl departed; she stood listening in
a trembling impotence.
Now it was too late she wished
that she had seen him; a wild i'm

the hall and say that it was a mis-
ake-that she was in all the time

open-then she heard the shutting
of the front door, and after a mo-
ment the maid came back.

she hesitated, and a half smile
crossed her face. 'He didn't seem
to believe me-" she added depre-
ciatingly.
Nan flushed.

said sharply.

smoothly. "And / can assure Won

Peter looked at him steadily.
II spoke to Miss Marraby," he
said CURLY.
Nan found her voice.

afresh.

said in whisper.
But Peter stood his ground. He
did not believe what she had said.

There was defiance in his voice.
Seton might not have been there
at all for the heed Peter paid to
him, but it was. he who came for
ward and answered for Nan.
'You will tell Lyster that you
prefer to go with me-" he said
quickly. "You will tell Lyster that
he is intruding-that we do not de-
sire his company"
Nan raised her eyes-such blaz-
ing eyes they were. Hot words rush
ed to her lips. but something in his
glance cowed her.
"Please-gor' she said duly. ~
am going back with-Mr. Seton"
She heard the little triumphant
breath which Seton drew.
There she heard Peters retreat
ing steps down the narrow footpath
She raised her eyes in sudden ang-
uish-he had almost gone-a mo-
ment and the curve in the wood
would have hidden his khaki-clad
figure from sight.
And even as she looked he stop

went on again and disappeared
through the bushes.
"And now to resume our CONVEX

Senate Not Deteriorating,
Says Walsh, Hitting Critics

ests OF their constituents ard the in
tegrity OF most of them. 1t Is not fair
to say that they are antagonistic to
everything constructive.
Certainly, none but extreme parti-
sans among their colleagues in the
Senate challenges the sincerity and
integrity OF the insurgent leaders.
Take La Toilette. Regardless of
ones willingness to swallow all Of his
doctrines, IL can hardly be said with
fairness that his integrity and SINGER
ity Of purpose are not up to the high
est Senate standard. It Is well known
that some Of the conservative leaders
have the highest personal regard for
Senator La Toilette, though they are
emphatically opposed to his political
philosophy. 1t has been said that the
only colleague Of the late Senator
Lodge who called him by his first
name was Senator La Toilette.

TO certain extent the caliber of the
Senate today may be judged by the
quality OF its debates.
From the early days of the Republic
| men Of signal ability as statesmen
have made history by their debates in
the United States Senate. Nearly a
century ago Daniel Webster. Henry
Clay and John c. Calhoun-three
giants of the forensic art-battled or
the old historic Senate floor, now the
Supreme Court Chamber. These men
stood out in intellectual power above
all others.
In the period following the Civil

War there were Douglas, Summer.
Conkling. Blaine, Garfield.
Measured by this test Of intellectual
capacity, the Senate of today does not
appear In an unfavorable light.
Never in its long history has the
Senate had two more singularly i'm
pressive speakers and debaters than
Borah Of Idaho and Reed of Missouri
II Borah lacks Reeds brilliancy, his
speeches are at times more logical
The addresses of both possess a. di-
rectness that Clay never had Clay, in

In the fine classical and intellectual
style OF oratory, Lodge OF Massachu-
sets and Williams of Mississippi, two
recent Senators. were masters. Their
| speeches we're always polished, grace
full, packed with apt illusions from
| history and literature.
The Senate today has many orators
| of the legalistic and pleading style.
Among the best in the legalistic group
are Walsh Of Montana and Pepper OF
Pennsylvania.
Are Brilliant Debaters.
Able and brilliant debaters, always
ready to present their causes power
fully, hotly and eloquently are Rob
| inson of Arkansas, La Toilette of Wis
consin. Lenroot of Wisconsin, Glass
of Virginia.
In the discussion Of purely financial
| questions. which naturally do not call
| for flights of oratory, Simmons OF
North Carolina, Underwood of Ala
bama and Smoot of Utah rank highly.
In that style OF extempHaneous
| speech in which biting satire and
singing sarcasm are effective. the
| Senate has never been more strongly
represented than by CaraWay of Ar
kansas and Norris of Nebraska.
In what might be called effective
| political stump speaking, Harrison OF
| Mississippi, Hefiin of Alabama, Wat
son of Indiana and Ashurst of Arizona
are highly proficient.
| Note how long experience conI
| tributes to the requirement of a repu-
| tation in the Senate. OF all the Sen
ators named above, only two have
! been in the Congress less than i
years, and most OF them have served
more than 20 years.
1t must be remembered. in making
comparisons with the past, that the
| Senate today has more problems, and
! problems of greater comlIeXity TO be
| debated, and is more continuously in
| session than formerly. At the present
| day d Senator speaks moe frequent
| ly than the earlier members Of the
| Senate spoke, and has much less time
for preparation and the requirement
