a birthday present for his six-year-
old daughter, Earl Cavanaugh, 80.

valise strap. one end Of which was
tied to the bed post.
Mrs Cavanaugh said her husband

The Height Of FutiIity

There was a fire in q house
at Thirteenth Street and Massa.
chusetts Avenue the other night,
your honor, and a hook and lad
der truck was parked on Massa-
cl1usetts Avenue just east of
Fourteenth Street. The defendant
ran his flivVer into the rear end
of the truck, and / asked him il
he hadn't heard of the, regIla-
ton about not going within
block s.of the fire apparatus.
He said he knew about that,
but he hadn't noticed the truck.
It's a pretty big one your honor,
about as long as a. street car,
and weighs three tons and a
half.
/ thought IL he'd overlook an
object that size, a kindergarten
pupil wouldn't stand any chance
with him at all, and school
opens up next Monday, so

are doing that, but we're. grad.
ually getting rid of them. When
it's lamp post or a brick wall
they cash in on, that isn't so
bad-the junk value of their ma
chine generally pays for the
lamp post, and they can't make
much impression on brick wall.
But it isn't so good when they
check out on some other per-
sons car. What were you look

the matter is that It Is more eco

them to an. institution to be treated
like convicts or imbeeiles.
The labor movement Is in support Of
state care of independent old folk
especially in view Of the injustices re-

form Of relief. AS proof the failure
of the old-age pension system Of the
Morris Packing Company Of Chicago
is cited. Trusting workers denied
themselves the benefits Of organized
labor in the hope Of secure old age
from the company's fund and then
were cehated when the packers were
consolidated and they were left out in

Friends Of Judge Ben b. Lindsey,
noted judge Of the Denver juvenile
court, interested in the contest Of his
election made by the Ku Klux Khan,
were notified last january that, fol-
lowing the death Of the Khan candi-
date, the case had been dismissed by
the supreme court, upon the motion
of the so-caIled Taxpayer" who with
the Khan candidate joined in filing
suit, but there are now new and mem
aeing developments.
On April 18th the supreme court,
by a decision Of four to three Of the
seven judges, granted the application
of the widow Of the Khan candidate
oreopen the case. She is represent
ed BY the attorney employed by the
Khan through cut the proceedings, his
employment at the requeht Of the Ku
Klux Khan Of Atlanta, Co., having
been testified to in open court by the
former grand dragon of Colorado.
The effect Of this unexpected action
is that the election contest is not
ended, as Was heretofore supposed
when the supreme court by unani-
nous decision dismissed the case. The
reinstatement Of the case thus leaves
court for decision on the former APP
peal of the Khan candidate (now de-
ceased). If the supreme court should
reverse the Judgment Of the lower
court the effect would Be TO GUST Judge
Lindsey from the Juvenile court Of
Denver. His successor would then
be appointed By the board Of coutny
commissioners, who, Of course. would
have the right to select anyone to
serve until the next general election.
Judge Lindsey would then be compell-
ed to enter another expensive cam
paign next November, rather than two
years later when his regular term
would expire.
An adverse deciaoip may mean that
Judge Lindsey must turn over his
salary since the election to the estate
of the Khan candidate. being thus
without compensation for about nine
months, increasing bis campaign ex-
penses about $4,000. Such els the
struggle and expense Of freedom and
independence in fighting the causes

Tells RHEUMATICS
To BEGIN ON SALTS
Says Excess of Hydrochloric
Acid is Cause of
Indigestion

A well-known authority states that
stomach trouble and indigestion are
nearly always due to acidity-acid
stomach-and not, as most folks be-
lieve. from lack of digestive juices.
He states that an excess OF hydro
chloric acid in the stomach retards
digestion and starts food fermenta-
ton; then our meals sour. forming
acrid fluids and gases, which in
flate the stomach like toy balloon.
We then get that heavy. lumpy feel
ing in the chest. we eructate sour
food, belch gas or have heartburn,
flatulence. water-brash or nausea.
He tells us to lay aside all digestive
aids and instead get from any phar-
macy four ounces of Jad Salts and
take a tablespoonful in a glass of
water before breakfast, while II Is
effervescing. and furthermore. to
continue this for one week. While
relief often follows the first dose. 1t
is important to neutralize the acid
ity, remove the gas-making mass,
start the liver, stimulate the kidneys
and thus promote a free flow of
pure digestive juices.
Jad Salts is inexpensive and IS
made from the acid of grapes and
lemon Juice, combined with lithia
and sodium phosphate. This harm
less salts is used by thousands of
stomach sufferers with excellent re-
sults.--Advertiseme

A STORY OF
A GIRL eFTODAY
A GOOD BLUFF

ct turned toward the door of Mr..
Storms Office, when he called me
back.
Here, I didn't say for you to
go Immediately he shouted.
well, that's the way we're go
ing answered composedly.
At that he came off his high
horse, for he knew I was the best
friends than any other girl in such
q position. He also knew you are
the prettiest girl he had ever had at
his place We both meant money to
him and he wasn't going to let US
go.
oh. Mamie, be yourself Go
back and take care of your little for
lorn chicken if you want TO, but re-
member that the first complaint l
hear OF either Of you. out the Arm"
goes.
After that things went along fair
ly smooth. Mamie acted as a buffer
70 me at the restaurant and helped
her out when here mothers COM
plants nearly drove her wild at
home. I grew in time to be what
Chuck would have called hard
/ boiled" The tinseled clink Of silly
compliments meant nothing TO me.
and was able either to ignore or
! turn aside with an irrelevant remark
the too obvious batteries OF the
masher.
1t was impossible. however. to
act at all times as though I did not
understand the advances of Horton,
Storms friend, and I would not lec
Mamie interfere as she wanted to
when others Of our patrons speeches
and actions were too obnoxious. /
could not let her lose her job even
If I did mine.
1 kept congratulatdng myself that
had never seen any one in tho
restaurant who had known me be-
fore coming here, for. although I
was making considerable money with
my wages and tips, knew l was
going to leave the place as soon pos
sible. I did not like 1t in any way.
! l grew to hate the ordinary man
about town''-the lobby lizard" as
Mamie called him. The difference
in his attitude to the young women
he brought to luncheon and din
ner and the girl employees of the
restaurant. WAS an insult to woman
hood. I have known fathers and
sons to make remarks to Mamie
and me who would knock a man
down for-making the same remark
TO their wonenfolk.
For n long time had managed
TO pass this sort Of thing over. but
one evening the climax came.
