THE SAFE LAXATIVE FOR ELDERLY PEOPLE I Most elderly people are more or less troubled with a chronic, per sistent constipation, due largely to lack of sufficient exercise. They ex- ! perience difficulty In digesting even light food, with a consequent belching of stomach gases, drowsiness after eating, headache and a feeling of lassi tude and general discomfort Doctors advise against cathartics and violent purgatives of every kind, rec- 1 omuending a mild, gentle laxative tonic, like Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, to effect relief without disturbing the j BJiHro ovRt*>m Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin ib the perfect laxative, easy In action, cer- ; tain In effect and, withal, pleasant to the taste.

Lamb's Tenure of Li*e Not Long. 1 A party of privileged sightseers were admitted to a private view of a menagerie between performances, and among other things were shown what was called a "Happy Family," that Is to say, in one and the flame cage there was a toothless lion, a tiger, somewhat the worse for wear, and a half-famished wolf. Beside thpsft wild animals, curled up in one corner, was a diminutive lamb which 6hlvered as it slumbered. "How long have the animals lived together?" asked one of the party. "About twelve months," replied the showman. ? "Why," exclaimed a lady, "I am sure that little lamb is not as old as , that." "Oh," said the showman, quite un moved, "the lamb has to be renewed occasionally." Tetterlne Cures Itching Plies Quickly.

MUST BEAT THE COLONEL (g Fast Reaching Stage Where the Political Blood Will Be Spilled in the Great Quantities?Are Sounding the Delegates to Convention. Washington.?If the Taft managers succeed in naming Senator Root as temporary chairman of the Chicago invention Roosevelt will be defeated for the ?pomination by Taft or some other man. Justice Hughes is most talked of for a compromise candidate at this time. Senator Crane, it is said, declared that the only hope of the party is to name Mr. ^Hughes, or some otner strong man. But first the test of strength between the Roosevelt and anti-Roosevelt will come in the fight over Mr. Root. Manager McKinley of the Taft campaign has said repeat edly that he would welcome the fight on Mr. Root. "We might as well have a show down at the very beginning," he said, when told that Colonel Roosevelt had announced that he would fight Sen ator Root to the bitter end. It de veloped that leading organizations and administration Republicans de sire to try the convention out on Root. ! It is believed that ail the votes cast for Mr. Root for temporary chairman can be controlled for a compromise candidate. It became known that George R. Scrugham, formerly or Cincinnati, but recently of New York, and a friend of Justice Hughes, has been collecting a list of the names of the delegates to the Republican convention with a l view to sounding them on Mr. Hughes. Scurgham has written to many Repub licans in various sections of the coun try to ascertain the true feeling to ward the Justice. Mr. Scurgham was in some way con nected with the development of the Hughes boom four years ago but just how heavy he is as a political manipu lator is not known here, as he is thought to be more or less obscure in the political game. Will Investigate Beef Trust. Washington, D. C. ? The house judiciary committee decided in ex ecutive session to undertake a pre liminary investigation of the Beef Trust. The committe agreed to re port the Edwards resolution calling for the investigation hut before doing so a private inquiry will be made. The committee does not purpose now to call any of the men heavily inter ested in the packing industry. The Cotton Tariff Revision Bill. Washington. ? The Underwood cot ton tariff reduction bill was favorable reported to the house by the ways and means committee. The bill is iden tical with that passed by both houses and voted by President Taft last A.ugust. Democratic leaders repeat their claim that its enactment would have more than $80,000,000 a year to the users of cotton clothing. Ismay Defends Captain Smith. London. ? J. Bruce Ismay told the British court of inquiry that it had been planned to drive the Titanic at full speed during a few favorable hours of her maiden trip and that he 5onsidered Captain Smith fully jus :ified in going at full speed through the ice region so long as weather con iitions made it possible to see ice ihead. Latest Report On Mexican Situation. El Paso. Tex. ? The main forces of Federals and rebels in the vicinity of Chihauhau are not likely to meet for at least a week more because of the destruction of the Mexican Cen tral Railroad between them for many niles.

Theodore Roose velt's determination to renew the fight jn Senator Elihu Root for temporary chairman and to bend every effort to tiis defeat when the republican nat ional convention is opened on June 18th, has caused general unrest among the republican leaders and national committeemen which have leaders in both the members of the national com mittee and leaders in both the Taft and Roosevelt headquarters discuss- , ed Roosevelt's statement with reluc- . fanpp I Five Lives Lost by Gas Fumes.

CONTEST HEARING MAYJE PUBLIC TAFT WRITES CHAIRMAN NEW ASKING THAT THE MEETING BE OPEN. H HE IS FOR FULL PUBLICITY The Previous Request Has Been Re ceived From Roosevelt and the Doors of the Convention may do Thrown Open to Newspaper Men. Chicago.?A letter from President Taft to Chairman Harry S. New of the sub-committee on arrangements for the Republican national convention suggesting that the meetings of the national committees at which contests are heard, be public, was received at nattnnni o.nmmittee headauarters. The President suggests that Mr. New take up with the committee the matter of open hearings and that if the committee finds it possible the de liberations over the contests, 230 of which have already been prepared for submission, be carried on in open ses sions. Chairman New said the suggestion of the President will have great weight with the committee. This, taken in j connection with the previous request , of Colonel Roosevelt for publicity of ; the contest arguments, indicates that j the doors will probably be thrown open, at least to newspaper men, when the committee takes up delegates con tests.

The President's letter was the chief subject of discussion at Republican political headquarters and his declaration for publicity of the hearings is declared by his supporters now here to indicate that the Taft man agers believe their contest cases are strongly prepared. Taft headquarters were opened by Joseph B. Kealing of Indiana. Up to a late hour only two Eastern repres entatives of the President had reached r?hi/?ncn .Tnhn Ravan and A. A.

Powe, agent for railroads operating under the Southern classification, attended the conference called by C. M. Candler, chairman of the Georgia Railroad Commission. The Present Situation In Cuba. Washington.?A distinct improve ment in the conditions in this neigh borhood of Daiquiri, Cuba, is reported to the state department from the New York headquarters of the iron com pany whose plant was threatened bj the insurred&s.

Convicts Hatched Up Murder Plot. New York.?Behind the bars of the federal prison at Atlanta several mem bers of the Lupo-Morello gang of counterfeiters and murderers have hatched a plot to assassinate William J. Flynn, chief of the local division of me secret service who ran me couu terfeiters to bay, and George W. Ray, of the United Statc-s district court, who sentenced the coiners to terms of from 15 to 30 years at hard labor. Thousands Flee From Mexico Cities. Chihuahua, Mexico.?Out of a nor mal foreign population of at least 2, 000, this city contains exactly 106 foreign residents. Of the 1,000 Ameri cans who ordinarily live here only 35 men and 12 women remain. An of ficial census just issued shows that fear of an attack on the rebel city by the advancing federals has prac tically depopulated the town. Thirty thousand people inhabit Chihuahua in time of peace but at the present less than 20,000 are here and the exodua is daily growing larger. Mother and Child Were Drowned. Cameron, Idaho.?Mrs. Howard Tup per, a widow and her two sons, Otto iged 15, and James, 11, were drowned on their homestead near here. The joys were in bathing and the elder got beyond his depth. James ran to the house for help and the mother rushed to the pond and jumped in. The Irowning boy caught his mother iround the neck w?th one hand and ivith the other clung to James, who ilso had plunged in. The three went lowu together. Captain Rostron Given $10,000. New York.?Captain Arthur H. Ros ron, of the steamship Carpathia vhich brought into port the survivors if the Titanic disaster, was presented vith a draft for $10,000, a fund sub scribed by readers of The New York American. Captain Rostron said that whatever part he had played in the ritanic tragedy was due to the loyalty )f this crew. It embarrassed him, he said, to feel that honors were being hruat upon him througn the suffering >f others. FORMAL WLECOI i TO GERMflNFLEET PRESIDENT TAFT WILL EXTEND GREETINGS FOR U. S.

LESSON FOR JUNE 16. r.WBIQT'Q WITNFSS TO JOHN THE BAPTIST. LESSON TEXT-Matt. 11:2-19. GOLDEN TEXT?"Among them that i are born of women there Is none greater j than John; yet he that Is little In the j kingdom of God Is greater than he."? j Cuke 7:28. This 1b the last lesson with the ex- ! ception of one that we are to have j upon the character of John t&e Bap- j List. Following the imprisonment of i John by Herod, Jesus, for diplomatic reasons, mafle Capernaum his head- ! quarters, and it was in Galilee that his ' great popular ministry was performed j Meanwhile John is shut up in the fort- ! ress at Machaerus, on the east side of the Dead sea. For one who had been so intensely active to be obliged to sit iuiy uy ana wan wane auoiuvi ? name and fame increases daily was a : severe" test of faith. His prototype. Elijah, had to meet a similar testing (1 Kings 19: 3, 4); why, therefore, need we wonder that doubts should arise in the mind of the greatest "born of woman?" Not one ol us at all familiar with the experiences of life and the subtility of temptation wili be surprised when under these I circumstances we read of John's ques tion, v. 2-6. This doubt is so natural lhat it bears upon its very face the | stamp of being genuine and that the record was not fabricated. It is no- : ticable in the form of John's question that he had no doubt as to the char acter of Jesus, the genuineness of his miracles, nor any question but that he ! was sent of God, but still he ques- j Honed, "is this the Messiah?" "Is this the one whom all" the prophets from Moses to Malachi said was to come, or do we look for another? I frankly disclaimed being the Messiah, you are a truthful man, and I am willing to accept your word, are you the Christ?" John was not envious (John 3:27-36), he was too great a man to be that, but yet Jesus had not wielded the ax as he had expected, hence the mes senger to Jesus and this frank ques tion. John sets lis the good example of taking his doubts to Jesus, and Jesus in a most tender way answers his doubting and at the same time turns it to his own advantage In con- : firming his claims as the Messiah. John Sought Nc>t His Own Glory. The second half of the lesson is the tribute of Jesus tn the life and char acter of John the Baptist. Jesus has, as we have just seen, sent his word of comfort and cheer to John when he turns to the multitudes with a highly eulogistic testimony as to John's work, his worth and his greatness. True, his faith seemed to be shaken for the mo mpnt hut .Tnhn was nnt a "reed aha ken of the wind," indeed not. John was not a man seeking his own glory (Luke 3:16) nor his own comfort (Matt. 3:1, 4). He was not clad sump tuously (Luke 7:25). No, John was a prophet, a man sent, commissioned, In spired of God. He had authority to speak for God (Luke 1:16, 26) in de claring God's will to man. Yes, John is all of this and more, for he was him self the subject of Old Testament prophecy (Mai. 3:1, etc.). This John was chosen among all men to go be fore his face and to prepare a highway In the minds and hearts of Israel over which Jesus the Messiah might enter and begin the establishing of this new kingdom. It was in performing this service that John filled one of the highest offices ever filled by man. In this eulogy we need to recall the dif ference In the miraculous births of these two men. John sup?r naturaily born of natural parentage, Jesus supernaturally born of woman but conceived of the Holy Spirit, henoe the words of Jesus are to be under stood that among purely human beings "none greater was born of woman." Went to Christ Himself. Jesus' words in verse 15 are tremen dous with import. Literally he says: I "I have told you these things about John and about my kingdom, now you who have ears have an obligation rest ing upon you because of what I have told you." There was need of their understanding and accepting an im- j portant teaching, but the unreasonable Scribes and Pharisees would accept neither the austere John nor the more ' Tnouo Tr>hn wnnl/1 nnt irvin (n QUt'iai UCOUO.

This "Son of Man." not of a man nor the man but son of man. of humanity, known as friend of the needy and the outcast, is himself cast out by the religious leaders of his time. Nevertheless in the wisdom of God (Luke 11:49) both John the Hap tlst, and Jesus the Son of man and of Mary, have been sent and the results j of their lives and of their teachings i prove them to be a part of God's wise | plan. God's wisdom is justified (v. i 19) by its workings or as some trans late it by its "children." Great as was John the forerunner, yet he that is in this newer kingdom Jesus came to establish is vastly great- 1 er than the old Hebraism. John in the ! old would seize me Kinguum uy iuitc i and contrary to all human conceptions I 3f kingship. His work was apparently | without program or policy, it was de- j i-oid of army, and this very method j was at variance, at violence, with the j natural pride and prejudice of the hu- | man heart. One of the six Panama commission ers was, a few years ago. a cub re- I porter at Ave dollars per week, and | luring that time was much perplexed aver the problems of (he Christian life and tormented by his doubts. Four successive nights he discussed the mat ter with his pastor; on the fifth he :?ame with radiant face to inform his [>astor that all his questionings were ettled for, said he, "I went to Christ limself."

The lemon 1b a palatable medicine and one that 1b especially good for the blood. For thick, sluggish blood and an Inactive liver, the Juice of a lemon In a glass of water every morning on rising Is a moat beneficial tonic. The lemon juice should be taken without sugar and drunk at least half an hour before eating, to give It time to be ab sorbed Into the system before any thing Is taken Into the stomach. As a drink, hot or cold lemonade still stands first on the list of drinks. In combination with other foods and fruits It is also both refreshing and stimulating. A few tablespoonfuls of lemon Juice In barley water Is a splen did drink for the sick. There is a zest about a dish of lem on jelly to be Berved with different meats (fish and poultry), which is especially pleasing. When serving bananas and oranges, fruits that are nearly always on the mamet, a Dit or lemon juice squeezwu over the fruit brings out the flavor of each. In preparing frozen dishes, like rasp berry or grape ice or Ice cream, a tar blespoon of lemon juice not only en hances the flavor, but makes the color more beautiful; a desirable addition to any dish. Lemon juice and olive oil, with salt and cayenne pepper, is a simple and easily assimilated salad dressing for many vegetables and fruits. As a garnish for fish, cut In dainty slices or In eighths, there is no pret tier decoration, if combined with a touch of parsley. Lemon Sauce for Puddings.?Stir un til well mixed, a tablespoonful of flour and a half cup of sugar; add a cup of boiling water and cook until smooth; add a tablespoonful of butter, two of lemon juice and a little of the rind.

EXPERT LAUNDERING. # There are people, and those who should know better, who labor under the Impression that laundry work Is merely a matter of muscle, and that any one with the physical strength and little intelligence will make a good laundress. There was never a more mistaken Idea, as we have learned by sad experience. A successful laundress must be an educated woman, something of a cnemist, a gooa iair amount 01 juug ment and a conscientious, painstakihg worker. There is knowledge to be used in the choice of soar and starches, in thej removing of spots and stains. To do the right kind of laundry work it is necessary to know how to wash the most delicate colors with out fading them. Most colors may be retained by a salt or vinegar bath, a tablespoonful to a quart of water. A general rule is to immerse all light colors in salt water and dark colors in vinegar. Blue is a delicate color, yet any shade may be permanently fixed by be ing soaked before it is laundered for half an hour in eight or ten quarts of water in which is dissolved an ounce of sugar of lead. Green is another frail color; a lump of alum in the rinse water will set this color. There are three important things to oonsider in washing colored clothes, after the treatment which sets the color. First, they should never be washed in boiling hot water; second, soap should never be mbbed on, but always dissolved, and third, they should always be dried as quickly as possible in the shade and ironed, when possible, before they are quite dry, and on the wrong side. If a garment is only slightly soiled, the rubbing and sousing in the soapy water will cleanse it, then the rinsing should be very thorough. The whole p#)cess should be done as quickly as possible. The most careful washer may. ruin the result of her work by careless ironing. To be a good ironer means much practice and infinite patience. Great Labor Bureau.
