HARMON BOOM HOW MAKES HEADWAY III THE LOWER HOUSE

Ticket with the Ohio Governor for President and Underwood for Vice President Is Discussed. (Continued from rage One.) (declared that he would not be dictated to by the trust. Make Keen Thrust. The admission that he had money Invested in the Iron and steel Industry prompted Mr. Bryan again to make certain pertinent observations as to bow the Democrats of the House ought to go about the work of tariff revision. He practically charged that Underwood was standing In the way of a revision of the iron and steel schedules because such a revision might hit the Alabama leader's pocket. Alalia ma 1 ab Aav'm tuwIta In a dramatic speech on the House floor, the chairman of the Ways and 'Means committee declared that Bryan's charges to stand up and say that be. Underwood, had not urged the Ways and Means committee to take up the iron and stoel schedules. Such course, explained Underwood, wuold have relieved him of personal 'embarrassment. Instead the committee voted to take up first the woolen 'schedule, and this was followed by revision of the cotton schedule. Underwood's speech resulted in an Ovation to the young Alabama Leader, and an apparent overthrow of the Neferaskan by the House. The House cheered him for several minutes, and this demonstration of confidence in the Integrity of Mr. Underwood seemed to mark plainly the parting of the ways between Bryan and the Democracy, especially that part of the party represented by the 255 Democrats 'Of the House. Even the erstwhile supporters of Bryan on the floor had 'nothing to say Jn his behalf that day. The Underwood Presidential boom was born that day. Later the Democratic politicians began to suggest that It might be better for Underwood to have liurnnit r1ara n ihi tlr.tro w ..u-w wnw, 'in as much aa Judson Harmon has been a recognized Presidential possibility for some years prior to the time that Mr. Underwood sprang into such flattering prominence. The ticket sounds good to the Democracy. The question is whether Mr. Underwood would be willing to give up his commanding position in the House for the rather negative' honors that generally go with the vice-presidency.' Many Democrats, however, believe that the Harmon-Underwood combination would best any yet suggested, and If the convention should decide that the success of the party -would be assured, Mr. Underwood might accept second place.

NEXT SESSION OF CONGRESS WILL BE BUSIEST III YEARS

There Will Be Tariff Legislation Without End and Monetary Reform Question Will Have Hearing. (Continued from Page One.) its currency plans while the heat of campaign is on. Policy of Economy. Greater interest than usual will be taken in the big appropriation bills of the next Congress. When they assumed control of the house organization, the Democrats announced that a policy of economy would be pursued and pursued vigorously. They began economizing by cutting down the expenses of the house itself. Then they went after the capitol expenses. In each case they slashed with a will and made a good showing. In December, however, it will be necessary for congress to provide nearly a billion dollars with which to run the government for the next fiscal year. The Democrats sincerity in economy will be - demonstrated then. If they reduce .the cost of government from $200,000,000 to $400,000,000, they will be able to go before the country with a decidedly favorable record. This is their present ambition. Both Republicans and Democrats want to adjourn congress early next summer. They will be eager to open their individual campaigns, as well as to get into the presidential fight, and leave as much of the general legislation as possible for the next congress to pass upon. - In spite of this disposition, there will be plenty of work to do. Eyeglasses. "Did you ever notice." queried an optician, "that nearly every person who wears rimless eyeglasses when polishing the lenses with a handkerchief holds tbe glasses by the nose piece, thus putting all the strain of the rubbing upon tbe screws which attach tbe glass to the metal? Of courso this tends to loosen the glass and wear out tbe thread upon the tiny screw. This In turn causes tbe lenses to wabble, resulting In great discomfort to the wearer. It's strange bow little Intelligence intelligent people display In simple matters, but then It brings us business." New York Globe. Mercury's Accident. "What's the matter with your office boy?" , "He hurt himself while running when I sent him on an errand the other day." "Come ofT! You don't mean to say" "I do. He never did the errand, but be found out why a horse had fallen down in tbe street." Cleveland Leader. A Rare Bird Indeed. "I think I shall learn to like that friend of yours."

CHWESE "SAILORS :x They Never Learn to Tie .a Knot Properly. Say a Skipper. "I don't know why it Is," said the captain of the tramp steamer, "but you can't teach any of those Chinese sailors there to tie a real knot. "There isn't much need aboard a steamer for the rope knowledge that used to be so much tbe part of a fo'c's'le training, but we do need splices and knots now and again just tbe same. "Those Chinese there, who were signed on as A. B.'s, can do anything needed in the way of splices that would make an old tar green with envy, and they'll fix up deadeyes better than most of the men I've shipped. "But you can't get one of em to tie a right knot Teach 'em Again and again, and they remember tbe lesson for half an hour. Next time there's a straight everyday knot to be tied the Chinese fo'c's'le hand makes up the same old granny. "Every child that tries to tie a knot makes a granny. This kind of a knot is made up by passing tbe ends around each other In the reverse direction, making the ends stand out at right angles. The ends should be wound around each other In the same direction. When they come out of the knot they should He alongside tbe line od either side of the knot. Such a knot won't slip. . But a Chinaman can't learn it for keeps not he. "The Lascar and .Malay and Kanaka learn the right knot easily enough. In a storm that's one of the things we have to guard against If we have Chinese sailors." New York Sun.

EYE DEFECTS. 80 ms Things That Are Said to Affect the Sense of Vision. Many eye defects, of course, are due to tbe bad habits of their possessors. Tobacco,' for instance, is generally held to Impair the vision, usually injuring tbe color sense so that gold and silver become indistinguishable. According to some medical authorities, again, tbe connection between eye and tooth trouble is more than an old wife's fable. In his book' dealing with the subject Han cock relates the story of a boy who woke up one morning to find himself blind. On examination bis teeth were discovered to be crowded together and a few of them were removed, with the result that by evening he could distinguish between light and darkness. More teeth were removed, and in eleven days his sight was fully restored. Other cases which tend to show the connection between eye and tooth trou ble have also been noted. Very fre-: quently occupation has much to do with one or other eye defect. Thus nystagmus is sometimes known as the miners' dtsease. : Nystagmus is an involuntary oscillation of the eyeball to and fro or round In Its orbit. In contradistinction to glaucoma. It is a young defect, having been noticed in infants, but sometimes It attacks miners af ter.f orty. " Miners are inclined to attribute the falling to the bad light, but It Is more likely to be caused by the continual upward glance so often necessitated by their occupation.

The Scrap Book

Caught Him Both Ways. While Cbauncey Olcott was chatting with a friend on Broadway. New York, one day a young man whom he had noticed in conversation with two other men In front of a theater left his companions and, crossing the street, said: "X beg your pardon, but are you Chauncey Olcott?" "No." responded the comedian; "I'm his brother." " "Then I lose my bet," exclaimed the stranger, darting In front of a car and rejoining his companions. Mr. Olcott saw him hand one of the men a bill. and. not wishing the stranger to lose his money, he started in pursuit to explain. But there was a rush of traffic at that moment and he lost sight of them. An hour or so later Mr. Olcott was walking up Broadway when the same yonng man approached him with another man. "Are you Cbauncey Olcott?" asked tbe man. "Yes. I am. and I want to say that when I told you a little while ago 1 was not I didn't know you had a bet on it." "Well. IH be blowed!" exclaimed the stranger as he turned disgustedly away. "That's two bets I've lost on you this afternoon. I just bet Jim here a five spot that you weren't Chauncey Olcott, and I thought I had a cinch." Anticipation. . It Is a mystery of the unknown That fascinate us. We are children still.

The Break In the Fog. There had been half a dozen stories of thick fogs, but Captain Mansfield had waited his turu with patience. It came at last, and tbe other captains turned their weather beaten faces toward him with an expression of cheerful credulity. "Twas told me ofa bouse setting pretty nigh the shore along halfway down the coast o' Makue." .aid Captain Mansflield. "I could show you the house if it fame right. It has a curious lopsided portico on it. and one day 1 asked tbe man that lives there why It happened to be built that queer shape. " 'Well. says he.

Don't let a four cylinder, car agent scare you a1out the 'gasoline consumption of a "six." The McFarlan Six consumes less . gasoline than the average "four." . But suppose a "six" does happen to consume a little more gasoline than some particular "four." Gasoline' is: the cheapest thins about a car. The average touring car should run twelve 'miles at. the very least, on one gallon of gasoline. If it were run 34600 miles during a season, it would consume 300 gallons of gasoline, which, ' would cost about $36.00. ' . . Now suppose that a "six" would run only ten. miles -on each Ballon of gasoline consumed. (We will guarantee more on a ? McFarlan' Six). On the above basis, It would consume 360 gallons, which would cost 143.20, or J7.20 more than for the "four" fora season's consumption. . , For this slight difference in the , cost - of gasoline. If the "Six" did happen to consume more gasoline than; the "four" (but it won t) you would get an of the comfort, satl&fnction, safety and less cost of repairs that Come from the smooth running "six" because of Its less vibration, fewer gear , shifts and less racing to " climb hills than the "four." -. -f- - v , J Let us demonstrate a "McFarlan Six" to you.
