‘WINE, WOMEN’ CHARGE ROUSES HOUSTON’S IRE Joker’s Estimate on Profit Entertaining Democrats Causes Uproar. BY RAY TUCKER HOUSTON, Tex., June 19.—Houston is not discussing presidential politics as the convention hour approaches. The South’s first convention since 1860 has been shoved into the background by the furore of a community outrage at a semi-official estimate that Democratic visitors are out to spend at least $lBO,Oll on "wine and women." Just ‘Futtin’ On’ It all started when C. J. Kirk, public service commissioner, humorist and manager of the convention hall, predicted a local profit of $2,500,000 from a five-day meeting. There were such innocent items as $1,750,000 for hotels, $32,000 for soft drinks, $15,500 for bread and $37,449 for eggs, but at the bottom of the list was his wicked “wine and women” estimate. Though his position seemed to give his statement an official stamp, it was obvious to most people that he was “puttin’ on,” which is Texas slang for “kidding.” He should have been warned by Cowboy Sanders’ discovery that Texas Democrats take prohibition and the softer sex seriously. Sanders was thrown out of the Democratic State convention because of his comment that “women’s skirts used to cover the instep, but now they scarcely cover the stepin.” Who Said It Was Hot? Kirk’s remark made the W. C. T. U. as mad as the Republican farmers were at Kansas City. At official meetings they assailed his statement as “an insult to ' the womanhood of the South..” Kirk's

17-YEAR LOCUST CAUSES DAMAGE IN NINESTATES Insects Leave Wake of Destruction; Found in Indiana. BY JOSEPH S. WASNEY United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, June 19.—The periodical cicada, commonly called the seventeen-year locust, has emerged from hibernation in nine States and is leaving in his wake a trail of damage that will total thousands of dollars. With shrill whistles, similar in sound to a distant fire siren, the locusts are having their regular wild fling which occurs every seventeen years. The dragon-like insects are having the time of their lives annoying the public with noise and eating fresh young tree limbs. Infestation Heavy Dr. A. L. Quaintance, etymology expert of the Agriculture Department, told the United Press that the infestation is heaviest this year in North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania. New' Jersey, parts of New York, Indiana and Ohio. Dr. Quaintance explained it takes seventeen years for a locust to mature. Then they emerge from the ground, burrow'ing up through the earth, leaving chimney type cones in their wake, as they come to the outer world for the mating season. At the first sight of sunshine they are dazed but soon shed a wnigless skin and begin calling for their mates. Eggs are laid on tree limbs, the larvae dropped into the ground and it burrows in to spend another seventeen years of hermitage.

Doctor Found Women and Children Sick More Often than Men

Asa family doctor at Monticello, Illinois, the whole human body, not any small part of it, was Dr. Caldwell’s practice. More than half his “calls’ were on women, children and babies. They are the ones most often sick. But their illnesses were usually of a minor nature —colds, fevers, headaches, biliousness—and all of them required first a thorough evacuation. They were constipated. In the course of Dr Caldwell’s 47 years’ practice (he was graduated from Rush Medical College back in 1875), he found a good deal of success in such cases with a prescription of his own containing simple laxative herbs with pepsin. In 1892 he decided to use this formula in the manufacture of a medicine to be known as Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin, and in that year his prescription was first placed on the market. The preparation immediately had as great a success in the drug stores as it previously had in Dr. Caldwell’s private practice. Now, the third generation is using it. Mothers are giving it to their children who were given it by their mothers. Every second of the working day someone somewhere is going into a drug store to buy it. Millions of bottles of Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin are being used a year. Its great success is based on merit on repeated buying, on one satisfice user telling another. There are thousands of homes in this country that are never without a bottle of Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin, and we have got ton many hundreds of letters from grateful people telling us that it helped them when everything else failed.
