PREFER TALKING TO READING
Writer Asserts That Southerners Excel
In One of the Most Charming
of Accomplishments.
Fifteen years ago, of thereabouts, I
heard a publisher describe the South
as "the home of the paper-covered
novel and the ten-cent magazine."
Since the demise of Poo's Southern
Literary Messenger, no magazine of
any largo significance or popularity
has been edited In Dixie. Today, there
Is no great publishing house In the
South.
But the aristocrats of Dixie, the
fine, cultured, delightful Southerners
one knows how comes It that they
confess to an utter and absolute In
difference toward reading? Come
here and live and you. will soon see.
It Is because of talk. They arc the
most charming talkers on earth. In
stead of burying their noses In books
when the sun goes down, they sit
about and chat. Match them at that
if you can. A subject will last from
dinner to bedtime. They turn It over
and over and inside out and illumine
it with the quaintest observations, tho
most comical stories. By comparison,
reading becomes odious because at
onco tollsomo and solitary. Itoilin

Is Work Too Hard?
Many kinds of work wear out the
kidneys, and kidney trouble makes
any kind of work hard. It brings
mornlqs lameness, backache, head
ache, nervousness, rheumatism and
urinary troubles. If your work is
confining, strains the back, or ex
poses you to extreme heat or cold
or damp, it's well to keep the kid
neys active. Doan's Kidney Pills
are reliable and safe. Thousands
recommend them.

Capitol Traditions Will Be
WASHINGTON. Since tho election
of Montana ofllclaldora here has
come In tho nation's history the epoch
to upset everything, Including all tra
dition, this advent of the woman law
maker. For . everyone realizes that
this Is just tho breaking of tho "lco"
that more will come in lncroaslng num
bers In tho years to come until woman
lawmakers will becomo a matter of
course.
To begin with, tho tradition bar
ring women from tho floor of the house
after congress Is In session Is shat
tered beyond repair. Always before,
there were "galleries" for tho wotnen.

Now Miss Itankln will have n seat of honor down under the speaker s eye.
Then the cloakrooms those choice meeting places for swapping stories,
"quiet puffs" and sly "nips" while the dry nnd tedious speeches go on Inside.
There Is no woman's "cloakroom." There have been only Republican find
Democratic. "When a Socialist strayed Into congress, ho could tnko his pick
of tho crowds he desired to lounge the time away with.
They'll have to do some ripping and tearing away and rebuilding lu tho
old house chamber. For now Undo Sam must provldo tho woman's "cloak
room," where women's politics of the future will bo mado and unmade as
they havo been In the historic G. O. I nnd Democratic gathering places.
Officials Try Meals From Traveling Army Kitchen
THE possibilities of providing hot and palatable foods to the marching
armies of tho Unltcfl States were demonstrated to officials and employees
of the war department tho other day, when n free lunch was served to them
coffee, soups and stews, nnd ovens for cooking meats and- vegetables and
baking bread. It Is so fitted that no matter how rough the country tho in
gredients will not spill out while traveling. And when a halt Is called tho
meal will be ready as soon as the troops lay off their marching equipment
nnd stack their guns.
Tho kitchen is being used abroad, and by certain United States organi
zations on tho border nnd In Mexico. One of them for several weeks cooked
tho food for Battery B, Field Artillery, N. G. D. 0., whop, that organization
was at Fort Mycr.
Tho difficulty of gettlng.hot meals to patients when considerable distances
have to be traversed for each patient bus offered a serious problem nboard
naval hospital ships for many years. This difficulty, however, will bo over
come when the new hospltul vessel now planned by the navy department Is
launched. Dr. It. 0. Holcomb of tho bureau of medicine and surgery of tho
navy department has invented a steam table on wheels which will bo Installed
aboard the ship.
The steam table will bo filled with hot food In tho diet kitchen on tho
lower deck, rolled down tho hall and into the elevator, and brought out on tho
upper deck, thence it will be wheeled into the ward and down the aisle of
beds, the plate of each patient being taken from tho steaming vats. Tho
unique devlco first was installed by Doctor Holcomb In a hospital In Norfolk,
making tho feeding of several hundred patients a relatively easy matter.

"Does ho have to wear those?" And she gazed wonderlngly at his locks,
The senator halted in his tracl:s, it seemed, while the crowd held Its

Silent Sentinels Got Congressman Kent's Arctics

"Oh," she hastened to tell hlui enthusiastically, "I took those over to tho
silent sentinels this morning. They 'ire doing such wonderful work and it
vus so cold." .
Now tho congressman Is on ardent ally of the HiiffraglHts and likewise a
good fellow. But after he had thought the matter over u while he half rose
from tho position in whLh he was looking under the sofa nnd spoke thus:
"My dear, I w 'at .to ask you, please, to leave to mt and not take to tho
silent sentinels my leather hunting coat, my fur-lined gloves, and tho woolen
stockings which my mother knitted for me."
Tho Incident Is typical. It has a bearing on the situation In hand. It
shows the extent to which the suffragists' activity enters Into many a house
hold beside the Kcnts' today. Everybody In AVushlngton Is talking about
tho sentinels cither for or against everybody Is currying to them or hold
ing on to Ills possessions to keep them from being curried to them. Enemies
aro lined up side by side at tho White House gntcs.
A German woman cumo along and volunteered "to hold a banner. Scarcely

Several causes may lead up to an
accumulation of uric acid in tho By stein,
which, in turn, cauBcs rheumatism or
