PARENTS' PENSION BILL N0WD00MED Unfavorable Report Submitted to the House Today on Sands Measure.

(Palladium Special) INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Jan. 23. Charity workers lined up in solid array against the Sands parents' pension bill before Judiciary Committee B of the house and with such good effect that a majority . of the members reported it for indefinite postponement Those voting in favor of killing the measure were Representatives Smith, Tingle, Van Horn, Ensle, Kobert Reeves, John VV. Jones, Beatty and Miedreich. Representatives Weisman, Branarnan, Mitchell and Sale signed a report recommending the passage of the measure. A feature of the hearing was an apparent disagreement between two representatives of the Woman's Department club of Indianapolis. Mxs. V. H. Iiockwood, chairman of the legislative committee told the committee that the club women are not in favor of the Sands measure. Mrs. Frank T. Wray, chairman of the legislative committee of the civics department of the club spoke favorably on the bill. Mrs. J-ockwood explained that what the club women want is provision for payin to poor parents an amount of money that could be earned by their children, who are compelled to go to school. Mrs. R. C. Bennett, secretary of the civics session of the club also expressed herself against the bill because she said it would permit money to be paid 1o worthless fathers. Amos W. Butler, explained the attitude of the board of state charities, which is that the present laws for poor relief are sufficient. He said the pension plan has proved expensive and generally unsatisfactory in other places, notably Chicago. He doubted if any home is ever broken up because of poverty alone. Thomas C. Day and Rev. F. S. C. "Wicks also spoke against the bill and John O'Mears, of the Brotherhood of Ttailroad conductors told the committee that union labor desires its passage. Representative Sands in arguing for the measure said its sole purpose is to prevent the breaking up of good homes through poverty. The committee voted for the indefinite postponement of a loan shark bill introduced by Representative Fleming.

CHRONIC INDIGESTION PERMANENTLY CURED. "Six years ago," writes S. E. Carpenter, East Aurora, N. Y., "I was in very bad shape suffering from indigestion, could not eat solid food, when a friend advised me. to try Chamberlain's Tablets. I found such relief from one box that I continued using them until cured, and though six years have elapsed I have not felt the slightest return of my former trouble." For sale by all dealers.

THE PERSIANS.

Net Rulad by Caste, but Are Great Sticklers For Etiquette. The pleasures of the Persians are In the main refined. They have not many kinds of recreation. Conversation is .one of their chief enjoyments.

Although a large proportion of them can neither read nor write, 1 think we must call them an intellectual people. They are natural linguists, and since their, country is Inhabited by many different races they are obliged to speak several different languages. It is not uncommon to find a man who ncarceiy knows his right hand from his left who can speak two or three languages fluently. To this number a man ot any education whatever would add two or three more. There is no caste among any of the races found in Persia. A son of Naslr-i-Din Shah's butler became his prime minister; a peasant girl once became the first favorite of this same king's anderun because she lifted her veil as the king was passing through her native village and her beauty appealed to the royal fancy. But while there is no caste the Terslaus are in some ways great sticklers for etiquette. The Zi-i-Sultan. the oldest and most capable son of Nasir-1-Din. could not succeed his father on the throno because his mother was not of royal birth. All social functions, moreover, are attended with the most rigid ceremonies, and woe to the person who attempts to overstep the bounds which custom has prescribed for bis rank. Mary A. Colquhoun in Los Angeles Times.

BY ESTHER GRIFFIN WHITE. "Pictures in the papers are funny things." "You've said that before," said the

cynic. "Why remind me of past conversational indiscretions?" inquired Sal. "Besides I have to talk about, something." "Don't bother about me," grinned the cynic, "I like best those songs without words." "Is that a compliment or a brickbat?" asked Sal. "Whatever I may or may not have thought about you, Sarah," said the cynic, "at least I never accused you of stupidity." "Am I, then, a song without words?" grimaced Sal. "Well, it suffices to sit and look at you," returned the cynic. "All I've got to say," cried Sal, "is that you pay mighty funny compliments. "Besides I don't care for compliments " "Don't put yourself outside the feminine pale!" interpolated the cynic. "Don't interrupt," said Sal severely.

"wait 'til I'm through. I mean that I

don't care for 'em all the time.

"And I object to being thrown a back-handed one. "A sort of hit and miss as it were, which may be interpreted any way you please. That rebounds to the other side if it doesn't soak in on this. "There are always a lot of people to hand you out stuff of that sort. Sugarcoated slams in disguise. "Maria does it. " 'What a lovely dress you have on, dear,' " she will purr, " 'it sets off your figure beautifully but you should never wear that shade next your skin it makes you look sallow.' "Thus succeeding in making you thoroughly uncomfortable and still keeping up her reputation for being 'sweet.' " "Lud! You women!" ejaculated the cynic. "If there is one word 1 dislike in fact detest, abominate, execrate and loathe," continued Sal paying no attention, "it is 'sweet,' the way most women use it and the way it is applied

by most women.

"The average female," went on Sal, "has a large element of the feline in her composition. "There are mighty few really 'sweet' people. "Now and then you will find them. "And they are generally in whatever social strata they are marooned unworldly and unsophisticated. "There are very few sweet women," ran on Sal. "There are lots of good women, nice women, clever women, honest women, sincere women but there isn't very often a 'sweet' woman. "I know one," interrupted cue cynic. "Who?" asked Sal. -rah!" grinned the cynic.

"Beast how I perfectly hate you!" ! cried Sal. "Still you do to amuse me," j she added. I "But you know as well as I do," she j continued, "that what I say is true.

i I've known but two or three sweet peo-?

pie in my whole career. One of them j was one of my professors at college. "He was absolutely sweet. "Everybody recognized it and bowed ' to it, both consciously and unconsciously. " 'Unspotted from the world,' is what I came to your mind whenever you were ; in his presence. j "And yet for some independent aci tion he was denounced by a set of I good for nothing old hypocrites, who ! weren't fit to wipe his shoes, as a man

of dangerous principles." "I thought you started out about pic-

; tures in the papers," yawned the cynic

winding up his watch and regarding its unblushing face reflectively. "Go, if you want to," cried Sal. "There's nothing worse than looking at your watch, you know "

"True according to the manuels issued by the Bokites but the truth is you have grossly misunderstood my motive. I forgot to wind my watch last night and just happened to think of it. "Nothing," grinned the cynic, "gives me greater pleasure than to hear you go on proceed, Sarah. I have naught to do but listen to thy prattle." "The only reason I tolerate you,"

cried Sal, "is because I must be amus- ! ed. And you do as well as anything. J "It is true, however, that pictures i in the papers are odd and peculiar, j "You read running commentary, in j instance, of the beautiful Mrs. So and So. wife of Mr. Great Official "lovej ly" in some sort of velvet or chiffon iwith a stunning milliner's confection I pinned to her luxuriant braids.

"You think that you would be dazzled in her presence. "Rendered speechless. "Flabbergasted. "And you flip over the page to be confronted with a shrieking caricature underneath which is printed the little legend Mrs So and So. "You think, at first, this may be a mistake. "As the picture bears an undeniable resemblance to Cousin Jane, noted for her performances on the range in Ru-

j ralville whither you hie now and then I to partake of lucious cakes and country sausages. But certainly could draw i no prize at a beauty show. J "Has Cousin Jane given you the slip ;and become one of the attachments of i Mr. Great Official's household?

age who attend the installation cere-; monies. I "Still," cried Sal with that perver-' eity which causes members of her sex to fly to the succor of those she has previously abused, "what can you ex-j pect of a picture in a newspaper. 1 j once knew a perfectly beautiful woman j whom the presses made out :'. fright ; w hen the printer people get hold of ; you goodbve!" cried Sal dramatically. "Specially if you have your picture taken on the roof!" grinned the cynic. "How mean of you!" said Sal. "I j couldn't get out of it. Everybody had j their pictures taken for the sake of the j cause besides I was a delegate. Any- j way I didn't look any worse than the j rest," she added. i "Forgive, I prithee, my Sal the al-1 lusion was unworthy. I know thy selfsacrificing spirit and how hard it is for j thee to say nay to the ardent reporter who asks for the boon of thy picture ! taken by our special photographer." j "I have it from first hand," contin- j ued Sal, "that all these stunners you read about as attending the Horse ; Show and the Diplomatic Receptions , are the commonest kind of slobs. "Stripped of their diamond tiaras j and their chiffon over-dresses they j

would look like Paddy's goat. "That, in fact, most of them are ugly. That if anybody thinks anything else it's because they can't tell the difference between people and clothes.

"I myself, have nver been able to believe the correspondents after I read that a woman I knew a very nice, faintly pretty, but most commonplace looking individual, who wouldn't be glanced at a second time on the street, was 'very handsome' and wa3 referred to as the 'lovely lady.' "But the strangest thing of all," went on Sal, "was the reference to her dark hair." "Well what of it?" inquired the cynic. "Can't people have dark hair?" "Sure thing," replied Sal. "Any color they want. But the truth is the last time I saw the lovely lady her hair was an ash blonde." "Maybe the change made her the 'lovely lady,' " murmured the cynic.

Cascarets immediately cleanse and sweeten the stomach, remove the sour

undigested and fermenting food and foul gases: take the excess bile from the liver and carry off the constipated waste matter and poison from the bowels. A Cascarct tonight will straight n you out by morning a U-cent box will keep your head clear, stomach sweet, liver and bowels regular and make you feel cheerful and bully for months.
