EDISON OFFERS CONGRESS PLAN OF BILL MAKING By Kenneth W. Clark (lulled rrvNM Washington. Aug. 30. Thomas A. Edison. Inventive genius of the century. has offered a "sc ientidc bill making plan" to Congress. This was learned by the publication of Edison's testimony on the Muscle Shoals, Ala., power and nitrate projects, before the senate agricultural copimittee. "1 worked in Washington during the I war." the aged inventor told the committee. "I found out after a while that a lot of those fellows that were run-, ning pie details of the government were false; they were not the real j thing; they were counterfeits. "I am surprised that you don’t draw your bills differently." he continued. "Draw up a skeleton of your bill anti specify the initial thing you have to d . and wkyn that is done you will find eiit what the first step costs. "Now. go ahead and continue it 6n by supplement, so yon will know the progress of all your legislation atd make them show up between each supplement. You would have saved five or six hillion dollars here and you would not have a lot of those inefficient people. "It comes in sections and each time they come for more money you make an amendment to the act. Let them have it. but they have to show up. "Under-the war administration no’ body had to show up. You will have it showed up by and by. "You should always pass a hill that i contains just the rudiments of the entire bill." Edison urged, "then you have the first start. the instrumental-1 ities you start with to make the thifg! function, and spend several million' dollars. “When you have got through t'. . first stage let them come to Congre - : and get the additional legislaftion toi go ahead a little further, and when you* have got through an examination of) what has been done you willl know if there is anything rotten in that, h ■ ; cause you will see how alt the money has been spent. "But the way you do it now you make the bill and quit and never hear anything, and you try to get some information and you don't get any at all.

They double-cross you till the time.” — —B —■ MAKE LODGE THE GOAT FOR ALL TROUBLES Boston, Aug. 30.—With the state pri maries only two weeks ■away Massa chusetts' political cauldron was bubIdina merrily for what is expected to lie the greatest battle of ballots In years Sept. 12. Senator Henry Cabot Lodge's light fcrerenoinination easily stands out as ithe big event. His nomination papers ! were signed by 60,000 voters, a record I for the state. Opposing .him for th< I legislature, whose platform include.: the League of Nations, prohibition and the Newbury case, A a result, of much criticism of the administration's method of handling rail and coal strikes situation, there is an undercurrent of speculation as to whether some voters will seek to show their displeasure by voting against Ixtdge. President Harding's address to con ress on the strike situation received -much unfavorable comment here, even lin the Republican press. During the I het weather the evufj-day-citizen worried little about his coal supply for ■ next winter, but with warnings from State and Federal officials of a certain shortage, that same citizen is begin ning to cast about for someone r blame for the situation. In th Democratic ranks Sherman L. Whipple, a nationally known lawyer, is waging an aggressive campaign sci nomination for the United States sen ite. Whipple has the full Isupport of Mayor James M. Curley's city machine, .a formidable weapon. Colonel William A. Gaston, another prominent Demo rat. will contest with Whipple for the I -enatorial nomination. Former Governor Samuel W. Mi Cal'., 1 who it was feared for time might on iter the senatorial race as an IndCpend ent Republican, failed to file nomination'papers. z The light between Governor Chan . 'ting H. Cox. who seeks renomination. :.ind Attorney General J. Weston Allen i rakes second place in the interest of lhe voters. Allen is campaigning on his achievements in driving corrupt state officials from office. With the exception of the place for - - retary of state, there will be Jlepuls liean and Democratic contests for

every office on the ballot.

North Webster, Aug. SI ,l "’ strangest fisherman's story of the year conies from Webster Lake, neat here. During a heavy wind storm, which Is said to have originated in lhe gulf states, several tons of timothy hay was carried high in the air and finally was deposited on the surface of Webster Lake. Anglers who saw it falling became alarmed and took to .the shore. A subsequent Investigation brought out the fact that the huy did not come from any near-by farm and some ofj the resorters are even going so tai\ as to advance the theory that it wascarried hundreds of miles before b» • ing deposited.

HER AILMENTS ALL GONE NOW Mrs. Sherman Helped by Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound Lake, Michigan.—“Aboutoneyear ago I suffered with irregularities anda weak-

I ness and at times was obliged tostay off my feet. 1 doctored with our family physician and he liliallv said he could not understand my case, so I decided totryLydiaE. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. After I had taken the first bottle I could see that 1 was getting better. 1 took several

jirawq *. I XI Illi i II u

bottles of the Vegetable Compound and used Lydia E. Pinkham’s Sanative Wash and I am entirely cured of my ailments. You »ay publish this letter if you wish.’’—Mrs. Maky Sherman, Route 2, Lake, Mich. There is one fact women should considerand thatis this. Women sufferfrom irregularities and various forms of weakness. They try this an i that doctor, as well as different medicines. Finally they take Lydia E. Pinkham’s Compound, and Mrs. Sherman's experience is simply another case showing the merit of this well-known medicine. If your family physician fails to help you and the same old troubles persist, why isn’t it reasonable to try Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound?
