Washington, D. C.'June 20. "Princess Helen" will be the next reigning belle of the white house if William Howard Taft becomes president of the United States as the republicans confidently predict. Robert Taft, a Yale sophomore, will be the Teddy Jr., of the next federal regime should his father become chief texecutive of the nation. In little Charlie Taft theje is a secfond Kermit to tease the guards, watchmen and White House bull dogs and cut capers for the Sunday newspaper magazine sections. And in Mrs. Taft there is a new "first lady of the land" whose charm of personality and winning ways as a hostess (would delight diplomat and layman. Taft Himself Is Strenuous. This, of course, makes no mention of the fact that William H. Taft himself Is a strenuous person who can ride boweback, even though he is not a hurdle jumper; who can play golf, even though he is not a tennis champion, End who has been strenuous, even though he does not show his teeth. The Taft family, in event of Secretary Taft's election, will be one of the Jnost interesting that ever occupied the White House. "Big Bill" Taft is likely to make the texecutive mansion ring with his little jjokes if he is elected. He's known everywhere as a "good fellow" the kind fwho shakes hands with the engineer, jiot for effect, but because he likes the engineer; the sort of a man who poses for photographs and not for notoriety, but to please the photographer; the man who holds receptions, not for the pake of publicity, but because he likes to meet people. Charlie Is Mischievous. And Charlie well, Charlie is an inquisitive, mischievous little chap who abounds in health and overflows with spirits. It was at Shanghai, when the Taft party was making its famous round-the-world trip, that Charlie showed a little of his spirit. As the party disembarked there was a line of red-coated Tommy Atkinses drawn up from gang plank to carriage. They stood with shoulders squared back, chests out, stomachs in, and chins protruding as if all the glory in the world was theirs. Secretary and Mrs. Taft walked imperturbably through the line. So did other members of the party. But Charlie, wel, he wanted to look over that line of red jacketed regulars, and lie did, first from one side and then from the other. "Fine Set of Lobsters." "They're a fine set of lobsters," he paid audibly, "only they're only half boiled!" "Princess Helen" is a gracious young woman who would take the place of 'Princess Alice." Her gayety would ring through the mansion and her little entertainments be something to make note of. Robert is serious like Teddy, Jr., but he's more bashful. He blushes. fThat's because he is a sophomore whose father is a joker. But the boy is a fine, wholesome, manly fellow, eay those who know him.

Truth and Quality appeal to the Well-informed in every walk of life and are essential to permanent success and creditable standing. Accoringly, it is not claimed that Syrup of Figs and Elixir of Senna is the only remedy of known value, but one of many reasons why it is the best of personal and family laxatives is the fact that it cleanses, sweetens and relieves the internal organs on which it acts without any debilitating after effects and without having to increase the quantity from time to time. It acts pleasantly and naturally and truly as a laxative, and its component parts are known to and approved by physicians, as it is free from all objectionable substances. To get it beneficial effects always purchase the genuine manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co., only, and for sale by all leading druggists. I M Theatorium 1 620 Main St. J. H.

Toronto. Can., June 20. "Women should enter the banking profession because it is an honest occupation and does not train them to be deceptive like other professions." This is the. advice of Mrs. E.

The woman banker may go from her desk feeling that she has deecived no one." SOLDIER ISHONORED Homage to Brave Leader of Mohamand Punitive Expedition. OLD FRONTIER CAMPAIGNER London, June 20. The man of the hour In England, or rather the man of the moment, is Major General Sir James Willcocks, the leader of the Mphamand punitive expedition. His brilliantly successful "week end" war against the Zakka Khel on the Afghan frontier has won him the praise of all Englishmen. Willcocks is an ideal man for frontier campaigning, as he knows the leading tribesmen of that vast region well, having served in the Afghan war of 1879-80. In 1900 he commanded the Ashantl field force which relieved Kumasi. For this achievement he was mentioned in the king's speech at the opening of parliament, and received the freedom of the city of London and a sword of honor.

"During the civil war," says the Boston Transcript, "the law ; school at Cambridge was presided over by Professors Parsons, Parker and Washburn. They were divided in their political views, and each did his best to maintain his opinion. "Professor Parier was one day asked. 'How do you get along on politics at the law school?" "Nicely he answered. We are equally divided. "'But how can that be? continued the inquirer. There are three of you? "Easy enough.' replied the professor. 'Parsons writes on one side and I on the other, ahd Washburn he speaks oa we side and votes on the other.' "

WEEDS WILL SHUT OUT DUST FROM THE CARS Railroad Man Allows Nature To Aid His Passengers. Walla Walla, Wash.. June 20. To save $40,000 in wages and at the same time control to some extent the dust which troubles travelers is the plan of M. J. Buckley, general superintendent of the Oregon Navigation, who this year proposes to allow weeds to grow along the tracks wherever it is possible. Instead of keeping the track clear of weeds by cutting them with shovels, the section men are instructed to allow them to grow, keeping them trimmed close to the rail3 that they may not come In contact with wheels of the cars and cause trouble. Wherever weeds have been allowed to grow dust has never troubled and this fact has caused Mr. Buckley to try the experiment of allowing weeds and grass to cover the ties, especially the soil at the ends of the ties outside the rails.

The moment you take Kodol your Digestion Starts

Kodol is liquid, like the digestive juices. It acts the moment you take it. The pain ends, irritation stops, the food is completely digested. That is not true of other digesters, for they rely largely on pepsin. Pepsin digests albumen perfectly, but that is all it can do. Starch, fats and phosphates form most of your food. Pepsin can't digest those. And it can't do bowel 'digestion. iYet half of digestion is done by the bowel fluids. It requires many ingredients to make a perfect digester, and Kodol contains them all. It digests any food any mixture tof foods completely. It does all that the stomach idoes all that the bowels do. You can see it do this in a test tube, under proper conditions. You can feel what it does in the stomach. There can be no doubt about it "The Modern Way
