is passing from the stomach into the intes~

peristaltic eontractions, thus pumping the
bile into the small intestine where it is
mixed with your food, (Bile is also a
very important digestive fluid, aiding in
the digestion and absorption of fats and
oils. But that is too long story to
relate here)

Molly raised her eyebrows.
Don't pull any of your STACEY

this, Miss Burnham-you want Rita

Molly nodded Stiffy.
And I want Bob Well, here's my
proposition. You use your influence

I'll make him move away from Bos-

j. s. To UNLOCK
Il PARAD|S

The paddock on lie Paradis is to
be removed Monday by United
States Marshal Edgar c. Snyder and
Deputy Marshal John j. Clarkson.
The cafe has been closed since
Aug. 4, 1928, following a decision
by Justice Charles S. Hatfield, in
District Supreme Court, that the
proprietor. Meyer Davis, his en-
ployees and Howe Totten. owner of
the building, were countenancing
violations of the Volstead act.
The charge was based on the al
legation that the cafe provided "set
ups" of ginger ale and cracked ice
for guests who brought their own
liquor. Hearings in the case lasted
for several weeks.
1t was explained today that the
"unpadlocking of LIE Paradis' does
not effect an appeal pending In the
DistricC Court Of Appeals from Jus.
tice Hatfield's decision.
The Appeals Court is expected to
decide whether the injunction against
the defendants is limited to one year

Captain to Become
Private to Get
Retirement

Back of the acceptance, by the
President of the resignation Of
Capt. Edward James Turgeon,
U. s. A. retired, lies a story Of
to what ends a man will go to
serve his country.
Captain Turgeon, whose last
station was at Fort Wright, N. Y,
was retired recently as a class B
officer, which is another way Of
saying he was a victim of the
annual wedding process.
His resignation upon retirement
after "a years service. 10 OF which
was as a commissioned officer,
was due to the fact that his re-
tIrement pay as class B officer
of ten years service would be $S5
q month.
Now he intends to enlist as a
private to serve six years, thus
rounding out 30 years service.
He can then retire on a warrant
Officers's pay of $14S monthly.

Rep Lehlbach Preparing to Renew Fight With McCarl
ASK HOUSE
|. FOR CURB ON
"TYRANT"

Rep. Frederick r. Lehlbach
of New Jersey, chairman Of
the House Committee on the
Civil Service, is making ready
for a campaign against his
ancient enemy, Comptroller
General J. R. McCarl-a cam
paign which stands a good
chance Of running through
most of the next session OF
Congress.
For many months, since McCarl
flouted Lehlbach's wishes and de-
clined to testify before the Civil
Service Committee on the bill to
amend the Welch Act, the influential
member from New Jersey has been
biding his time, waiting for an
opportunity to hit McCarl where it
will hurt most.
Calls. McCarl "Tyrant"
The hearings on the pay bill,
entangled with the famous McCarl
decision onn the operation of the
Welch Act, got nowhere during the
last session, when. it became evident
that the legislative doctors dis
agreed on the best remedy for the
decision on the operation of the
McCarl ruling.
Lehlbach assailed McCarl as a
''tyrant," and charged that he was
overstepping the authority vested in
