The plain- tiff in the case is the son-in-law of the defendant and the trouble between them seemed to have originated over the weddinz expenses incident to the marriage of plaintiff with the daugh- ter of defendant. Several witnesses were heard. s some of them could not speak English an interpreter was emploved.

No well-regulated home should be without a laxative, for there is scarcely a day in a family of several persons that someone doesn't complain of a headache, of sleeplessness, or show the first signs of a cold. A laxative then becomes a necessity or what was a trifling congestion at the beginning may run into a serious cold or fever. No harsh remedy is meeded, but simply a mild laxative- tonic, that will make the- liver active and stir up the bowels. People who have tried a great many things, and are themselves heads of families, who have seen the little ills run to big ones, will tell you that there is nothing better than Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pep- sin, which you can obtain at any drug store for fifty cents or one dollar a bottle, the latter being the family size. Among the great believers in Syrup Pepsin for constipation in old or young and as a general household emergency remedy, is Mrs. M. F. Smith, 710 N. Cherry St., San Antonio, Tex. To use her own words she says she wiil bless Dr. Caldwell to her dying day for she believes that through his remedy, Syrup Pepsin, she found the way to permanent good health. Dr. Caldwell’'s Syrup Pepsin is sci- entifically compounded and its purity is vouched for. Mothers give it to tiny babies, and grown people, taking a little larger amount, find it equally MRS. M. F. SMITH effective. It is mild and gentle, pleas- ant-tasting and free from griping. l 1t does not hide behind a high sounding name and is absolutely free from any prohibited ingredient. Fam- ilies who once use Syrup Pepsin for- ever after avoid cathartics, salts, pilis and other harsh medicines, for these only do temporary good, are nauseous and a shock to any delcate system. Such things should never be given to children. y Families wishing to try a free sample bottle can obtain it postpaid by ad- dressing Dr. W. B. Caldwell, 419 Wash- ington . Monticello, Ill.

Correspondence of Senator Frank B. Brandegee received in New Haven shows that the senior senator from Connecticut stands as he did when the measure was being discussed before the senate committee on interoceanic canals, in 1913. in opposition to free tolls for coastwise amers using the Panama canal. He says he does not expect to take any active part in the | discussion when the issue comes up again for the repeal of the act, but in- asmuch as he has not changed his mind he wil vote as previously against free tolls, that is, for the repeal of the bill. Senator Brandegee predicates his stand upon the two salient reasons ad- vanced by the persons who are op- posed to free toils for United States vessels, namely, that to permit such a practice would be a violation of the ‘Hay-Pauncefote treaty, and, secondly, that it is a mistaken economic policy to tax all the people of the United States for the cost of the canal construction and the cost of its operation, by favor- ing owners of coastwise vessels. His Own Statement. Senator Brandegee's letter in full follows: ‘“When I was chairman of the sen- ate committee on interoceanic canals, before the democrats took control of the senate, and during the passage of the so-called Panama canal bill, I took the position that every vessel that passed through the Panama canal, for which we had paid $400,000,000, ought to pay for the service rendered. Our coastwise shipping already has a mo- nopoly, as our laws forbid foreign ves- sels to engage In our coastwise trade. I see no reason why we should tax all the people to pay for carrying these ships from the Atlantic ocean to the Pacific ocean free of charge. “I also was of the opinion that we were prevented from discriminating as to charges in favor of our coast- wise shipping by the language of the Hay-Pauncefote treaty, which provid- ed that the canal should be free and open to the ships of all nations upon terms of perfect equality. I therefore voted both in committee and on the floor of the senate against giving a free p to any vessel going through the canal. 1 have not changed my mind about this matte hough the presi- dent seems to have changed his. Opposed to Any Favors. “I am perfectly willing to let the democrats fight it out among them- selves. I would not vote to give Ger- | many or Bngland or any other nations any favors, and I arrived at my con- clusions in this matter long before the | English or any other foreign country raised any questidn about this matter. | I am also opposed to giving any favors to the men who own the ships engaged in the coastwise trade. These ships that now go from New York down the Atlantic_coast, around Cape Horn, and up the Pacific coast to San Francisco are provided with a canal at Panama which saves thousands of miles of their ocean trip, and 1 think it is a mistaken economic policy to tax all our people forever to the interest on _this $400,000,000 which the canal has¥cost, and the expense of maintaining the machinery to transport them through the canal from the Atlantic to the Pacific, and to pay for the expense of fortifying and protecting the canal, and make a present of it to the ship owners. To Vote as Before. “I do not expect to take any active , part in the discussion of this question, as my views are already at length in the Congressional Record, and are | weil known, but inasmuch as 1 have to vote as I think, and as I have not ichanged my mind since 1 last voted, 1 shall be compelied to vote as I did before on this question when it comes to a vote.” The senator from Connecticut was chairman of the committee on inter- oceanic canals of the last congress, with Senators Borah, Bristow, Perkins, Page, Jones, Townsend, Simmons, Percy, Thornton nad O'Gorman. The maJjority of the members of this com- mittee voted for free tolls, and it will be recalled that Senator O'Gorman of New York, who is still exerting im- pressive influence against the repeal of the measure, was one of the strongest in his fight for free tolls. The statement that the Connecticut delegation in congress will be divided in its vota when the matter comes up for settlsment in the house has attract- ed much attention, particularly the fact that Congressman Reilly will not stand with President Wilson in voting for the repeal of the provision. Strong pres- sure has been brought to bear upon him by practically every Irish and Irish-American organization In the state to exert his influence against the repeal of the Panama exemption of coastwise vessels, and it has been said that the constant importuning of the congressman had gotion So on nerves of the popular Tom that succumbed to his present illness. Those who know him, howevér, and are familiar with some of the political tribulation he had to pass through during the present administration in the settling of appointments cannot accept with the credulity of the casual | observer the first named cause for his | indisposition. -~ N, - and fixtures—a spotles;l.y clean bathroom follows in the path of GOLD DUST Cuts grease and dirt and sterilizes as it cleans. 5¢ and larger packages.
