 The tariff bill and the question of imposing an import duty on straw hats were laid aside quickly when HrOokhart produced his letter, and q half dozen members entered with a vim into rousing discussion of prohibition. d subject seldom men toned these days in the senate chamber, despite the heated contro- Vcrsy that has been in progress for more than q month.
 Tydings of Maryland, democrat, told the Iowa senator that by dil- gent search he could discover 80 such clubs in any large American city.

 Brookhart said he had not been in the club.
 The debate then settled down 70 q discussion of the measure of the success Of the prohibition aH, Rrookhart Contending that booze conditions" have improved, and the vets hcatedly denying this assertion. Copeland told him he was blind and deaf The portion of the letter produced by Brookhart bore the heading:
 "Century Club. : West 43rd street. New York City"
 It read:
 With all the chaotic conditious now surrounding the enforcement Of the Nolstcad act. why not inquire sometime about the special privile%s accorded this association where real gin cocktails are served at the monthly dinners usually attended ~ io0 10 l5O members and then con- sidcr the wonderful fish house run punch that appeared at the last New Year eve celebration" Author Not Disclosed Brookhart would not say who was the author of the communication al- though he was pressed for.an answer 10 this question by Bingham of Con- nccticut.
 Charles A. Platt is president of the Century Association.

 And there was the time GabJv Street was catching Tom Hughes in game in Detroit and with the game well in hand, signalled for a last ball against a batsman who, said Joe, "couldn't hit a curve with a paddle A fatal base-hit resulted.
 'l said to Street. You're through, I am going to send you homo. Get ticket from Jerry, Ghe secretary Then the players laughed at Gabbv so l said, Wait. don't get your ticket tonight. Wait until tonor- row, by that time I'll have seven or eight more to send home and We can get a party ticket"

Every indication pointed to grow ing sentiment for the French pro- posal under which each nation would be given a total tonnage but permitted q certain latitude in di- vldng this total among various types of ships. IL may be two or three weeks before any final action IS taken on this question because of the details inevitably entering into lAc calculations.
 one Of the most troublesome ot these details was the decision as to what percentage of naval tonnage should thus be transferable from one class or category Of warships to another.
 France. who originally advocated no specifications at al as to mdl' vjGual categories, naturally wants q NiIc latitude being interested principally in buildin@ cruisers 10 absorD the batth ship tonnage which she uas no intention Of using.

 Over Modern Laxative
Children like it's flavor Doctors approve its action

Unusual Crossncss, coated tongue,
 loss of appetite-mothers know how often these are signs that intestinal sluggishness is sapping the energy Of their children. Wise mothers take no chances with oldfashioned cathartiCs. They are turning by thousands to Feen-a-mint as a safe, dependable corrective for constipa- ton.
 Children love the fresh, mint flavor of this modern chewing gum laxative which never has to be forced down unwilling throats as do ld-fashioned cathartics Mothers give 1t to them with the approval Of their doctors because Feen-a mint works on the important principle of uniform internal distribution. Because children chew F'een-a- mint it is effective in milder doses than ordinary laXatiVes. For the ef- fectiveness Of a laxative IS not so much dependent upon the quantity swallowed as upon the thoroughness of its distribution throughout the ali mentary tract.
 While children chew this delicious bit Of gum the laxative it contains IS gradually released and mixed with the saliva. Thus it is carried to the intestinal tract smoothly, evenly, without shock 10 the system or the
