EV!!! since Jack Garner took over the job of Democratic floor leader in the House last April he has been waiting for, the opportunity to take a crack at his good friend, John Til- son, the Republi- can_chieftain. ‘The genial but flry Texan s never happier than when li!e is lb‘l'l. hiding Republi- cans, “Hellgebites” is the wo[\;? he plies to the ing remarks he hurls across the aisle from time to “hellge':m as can few others. Quite by accident the other day Til- | son found that he was in & most em- barrassing predicament. Early in the day the House had a radio bill. Along later in the afternoon the Senate passed & similar bill and sent it over to the House, where it was passed and sent to the President. As a result, the House had on its| hands a bill it had passed, but no place | to send it. Tilson explained the dilemma to the House, and asked unanimous consent, as the best way éut of the difficulty, that the action of the House in passing its own bill be vacated. It was a situation Garner long had been waiting for. He had no serious Tilson’ spend a few uncomfortable min- . 80 he arose and blithely asked Tilson the object. The majority leader, probably sensing that Garner was out to give him s ride, very carefully explained the whole thing to him.

C., WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 8, 1930. Today in Washington History BY DONALD A. CRAIG. | | | January 8, 1856.—The Democratic na- tional eemmittee met this morning, ac- eording to the eall published through- out the country some time since, at the National Hotel in this city, every State being represented. The Hon. Robert M. McLane of Maryland was in the chair. The only business whatever ap-| proached by the committee was the | question of the best time for the meet- ing of the next Democratic national convention at Cincinnati. Many sug- gestions were made and a conversational debate took place. Some members fa- vored as early a period as the last week in March, while others desired the time of the assembl of the convention to be m,lt off until July. y, the first Monday in June next at 12 m. was upon unani- mously. The committee then adjourned ner with which he has undertaken to t & stop to the enormous and shame- ss abuses that grow out of the habit of putting off the final of the | general appropriation bill until the ex- piring moments of the session. *‘As Mr. Toombs (Senator from Geor- | gla) yesterday truly remarked, nine- | tenths of all the unjustifiable and perni- | elous special legisiation, jobbing, etc, | embraced in amendments to such Wlis, are brought forward very shortly before | their final passage, many of them in- dorsed with departmental recommenda- | tions at the earnest solicitation of mem- other house of Con- gress. The remedy of Mr. Toombs, our experience teaches, will prove a capital one—that is, the enactment of a law or rule forbidding the consideration of any amendments to such bills, proposed | within a given time of the end of the | session. | “This will insure that there shall be | ample time to criticize closely and dis- cuss fully every such amendment befor: either house shall be called upon to dis mu of it finally. The Senate, we are ppy to say, seems unanimously dis- posed to second the praiseworthy effort of Mr. Broadhead to put a stop to this most enormous abuse existing under the Government.” Bells and belles—of every size and quality—abound on Pennsflvlnh a nue this morning. The sleighing was excellent and the weather delicious; for the sun shone, yet did not make the icicles trickle. Augustabernard, who ts it in uplicated it in many md:%a, n- A, leader prodded the Republican chief, Bankhead, & Democrat, added to Ti- son’s discomfiture by suggesting that some one was responsible for the siip, and wanted to know who it was! Tilson by this time was certain that he was being rawhided, and refused to be. led further. He flatly reminded his colleagues that it was merely for the prestige of the House he fought, and that he hoped they would not be so foolish as to send that bill over. Garner had had his fun.

Many & young mother has been shocked to find that her hair. which formerly was glossy and luxuriant, seems to lose all of its life and beauty after childbirth. Some who have had lovely wavy hair have even had the Aisappointing experience of having it become straight and straggly. In the first place the young mother must try to build up her own physical condition. It is imposeible to have a | head of luxuriant hair when one's bodily health is at & low ebb. Young mothers often find it almost impossible to get sufficient rest and sleep, and lack of these are never conducive to any suc- cessful beauty program. For the sake of herself as well as her child it be- hooves every young mother to make it her business to take excellent care of herself—seeing that she desn't allow herself to become overfatigued and also that she eats plenty of simple, whole- some foods. It is always a good plan to consult one's physiclan and find out if there is some very definite cause for an unheaithy condition of one’s hair. Anemia is one of the most frequent reasons for this trouble, and uniess it is checked it will cause hair to turn prematurely gray. After making sure that her health is being properly cared for, the next step for the young mother is to give her hair and scalp some very definite attention.

If the hair a lost its an olly tonic frequently. The following lotion makes a good one: Olive oll or castor oil, one ounce; cologne water. bay rum, four ounces: tincture of cinchona, one dram. Shake well and apply two or thre times a week if the hair is dry. It sheuld also be applied after the shampoo, before the hair is quite dry. The application the hair of this lotion will improve the s - ance of one's hair, and it is al splendid tonic for falling hair. Many women are so troubled with falling hair after childbirth that they fear they are to become permanently bald. However, in the majority of cases this should not cause too much worry, as the hair is always falling more or less, and new hair keeps coming in. Scientists tell us that every one's hair is completely replaced every two to six years. Most young mothers will find it ad- visable to give their hair hot oll treat- ments regularly. Before the shampoo brush the hair thoroughly, divide into strends and with a small toothbrush or a plece of absorbent cotten apply warm olive oil or mineral oil to every part of the scalp and hair. Apply two or three hot towels in succession, bind- ing each in turn around the head like & turban. Leave the oil on for about an hour and then shampoo with plenty of warm watef and good soap lather. Rinse in several tepid waters and finally apply the scalp tonic suggested above. Conscientious care of the hair in this way will result in a gradual im- provement. Its luster will come back and even the departed wave will begin to reappear when the hair has regained sufficient oil and life. Mrs. F. J. R—Your beauty problem is answered above regarding your hair.
