United States to appear officially at
either body of congress in deliberativfe
session since John Adams, in the first
few years of the last century. An at-
tempt was made exactly 100 years ago
in 1813, to revive the custom but
President Madison declined an invi-
tation to discuss foreign relations with
the senate. Since then no president
has even suggested joining in the de-
liberations of congress.
The president believes that he can
get into closer touch with the mem-
bers of both houses of congress be-
cause personally expressing his views
to them in addition to his official vis-
its to the house which will become a
matter of White House policy. The
president will take advantage of these
visits to hold conferences with the
party leareds in congress.
The president had read with con-
siderable surprise reports that he had
actually written parts of the tariff bill
or that he had forced agreements with
committees of congress. He declared
he simply had been asked to make
suggestions and had cheerfully done
so; that the bill is the work of con-
gress and that his part in it has been
that of counsellor and advisor. It is
known, too, that the president is anx-
ious to give equal consideration to the
leaders in both houses of congress in
seeing that party pledges are carried
out.
Tariff Bill Comes Early.
Both houses of the sixty-third con-
gress got down to business in extra-
ordinary session Monday, confronted
by the task of revising the tariff. The
democratic tarifT bill completed by the
democrats of the ways and means com-
mittee probably was introduced in the
house shortly after it convened at
noon.
The senate had already organized for

Thirteen Not Unlucky for Him.
Dr. Nansen has good reason to re-
gard thirteen as a lucky number. The
crew of the Fram. in which he made
the most successful of his expeditions, i the new congress and Its session was
consisted of thirteen men, who all, ! a mere routine meeting. Immediately
after an absence of three years, re-
turned to their homes in perfect safe-
ty. Dr. Nansen arrived back In Nor-
way on Aug. 13, 1896, and on the
same day the Fram emerged from her
long drift on the ice Into the open
sea. Moreover, during the voyage, as
the doctor records, "Kirk presented us
with thirteen pups, a curious coinci-
dence—thirteen pups born on Dec. 13,
1893, for thirteen men."
Something Seemed Lacking.
One of the best known London
newspapers, in a review of "Lincoln's
Own Stories," collected by Anthony
Gross, commented on the aneedote
which Lincoln was fond of telling of
a family of such migratory habits
that they were able to get everything
into one wagon, and even the chick-
ens were so used to being moved that
whenever they saw the wagon sheets
brought out they laid themselves on
their backs and crossed their legs,
ready to be tied. The British review-
er, with an insular sense of humor,
remarked: "One feels a little as
though something must have been ac-
cidentally left out of this and of many
other stories in the book."

afterward, however, a democratic cau-
cus was held, when the fight to revise
the senate rules to liberalize proceed-
ings In the upper body will begin. This
matter will occupy the Benate during
a part of the time that the house
busies itself with its weeks of tariff
debate.
When the house convened In its
changed champer, where benches have
taken the place of the old-time desks
and chairs, the members, including
hundreds of new representatives fleet-
ed last fall, were sworn in. Clerk
South Trlmbell was the presiding of-
ficer until the seats were filled
and the speaker elected. The demo-
crats, following their caucus decision,
renominated and re-elected Speaker
Champ Clark. The republicans nom-
inated Representative Mann of Illi-
nois, and the progressives, the new
party organization in the house, nom-
inated Representative Murdock of Kan-
sas.
The democrats with a majority of
approximately 150 members in the
house, contemplate little trouble In
running things to suit themselves.
In the senate the democrats will line
up with 51 senators, republicans 43,
and progressives 2.
Both houses of congress were be-
sieged Monday by a small army of suf-
fragists who planned a parade through
the rotunda of the capitol where indi-
vidual suffragists performed mis-
sionary work for the cause among tha
members of the house and senate.
CANADA WINS AGAIN
THE COLORADO SILVER TROPHY
FOR OATS WON A SECOND
TIME BY CANADA.
The most recent achievement of
Canada's West is winning for the seo-
ond time the magnificent $1,500 silver
trophy awarded by the State of Colo-
rado for the best peck of oats. At
Columbus, Ohio, in 1911, J. C. Hill &
Sons of Lloydmlnster, Saskatchewan,
placed a peck of oats grown on their
farm In competition, with oats from
every part of the world. The Judges
! had no difficulty in deciding, and the
! award was given to the Saskatchewan
grown oats. In 1912, the Corn Expo-
sition had no exhibition, and our Car
nadlan friends, although ready for a
second contest had no opportunity.
In 1913, the exhibition of the Society
was held at Columbus, S. C., and It Is
said of it that it was one of the best
yet held. At this exhibition, which
comprised corn and all the smaller
grains, Hill & Sons of Lloydmlnster
had on exhibition for the contest an-
other peck of oats grown on their
Saskatchewan farm, in 1912. There
was no trouble for the judges, no time
necessarily lost in reaching a decision.
Hill & Sons won, and for the second
time their name will appear on the
crest of the cup. The third space will j
doubtless be occupied by their name,
and then this splendid trophy will be
theirs.
During the past few years Western
Canada grains—wheat, oats, barley and
A Soluble Antiseptic Powder flax—have been in competition with
as a remedy for mucou^ membrane af- grains from all other countries, and in

Western Canada presents innumer-
able opportunities for the big farmer
who wants to cultivate his thousands
of acres, the medium man satisfied
with a few hundred acres, the man
who is content to farm his free home-
stead of one hundred and sixty acres;
it has opportunities for the investor,
the capitalist, the business man, the
manufacturer and the laborer.

Sinecure Had Lasted Long.
Pensions are not the only things
commanded and forgotten. An In-
quisitive member of the British house
of commons was struck one day by
the presence of a policeman in one
of the lobbies. He wondered why
this particular lobby should always
have a guardian strolling up and
down and made inquiries. The rec-
ords of the house were searched and
it was found that fifty years previous-
ly, when the lobby was being decorat-
ed, a policeman had been stationed
there to keep members from soiling
their clothes. The order never having
been countermanded, the constable
had kept his beat for half a century.

CHARGE ON THE COMMUNITY
Care of Those Afflicted With Tubercu-
losis Plainly a Drag on the
General Welfare.
Dr. H. L. Barnes, superintendent of
the Rhode Island State sanatorium,
has recently demonstarted by some
Interesting studies of patients dis-
charged as "apparently cured" from
that Institution, that a sanatorium Is
a sound investment for any state or
city. The gross earnings of 170 ex-
patlents obtained in 1911 amounted to
$102,752, and those of 211 cases in
1912 to $112,021. By applying the
same average earnings to all ex-pa-
tlents of the sanatorium living In 1911
and 1912. Dr. Barnes concludes that
their Income In these two years was
$561,000. This sum ts more than three
times the /cost of maintenance of the
sanatorium, Including Interest at 4
per cent, on the original Investment
and depreciation charges. Dr. Barnes
concludes, however, "While Institu-
tions for the cure of tuberculosis are
good Investments, there Is good rea-
son for thinking that institutions for
the Isolation of far advanced cases
would be still better Investments."

"The Memory Lingers"
Washington.—The Ohio Red Cross
relief commision has decided that not
* dollar of Its funds shall be expended
for public works of any character, but
shall be devoted exclusively to restor-
ing stricken families to normal life.
National Director Bicknell, In charge
of the situation In Ohio, advised the
home office here Sunday that a super-
visory audit would be kept over all
expenditures and that eventually all
accounts would be audited by tho war
department.
Tho Red Cross upon Mr. Blcknell's
recommendation has telegraphed
$1,600 each to Pert, t-awrencehurg
and Terre Haute, Ind., which cities
have received a like amount from the
governor of the state. One thousand
iollaj-s was sent to PIqua, Ohio.
Scors Lo«t on Wreck
Bay City, Ore.—Twenty-two men,
Including the ship's captain, the presi-
dent of a wrecking company of Port-
land and a representative of the
marine underwriters were trapped in
the hold of the German ship Mlml,
which capsized ofT the beach here
early Sunday after having been hauled
oft' a reef on which she had been fast
two months. How many perished ll
not known.
Mount Royal Once Active Volcano.
In the work on the Canadian North-
ern railway tunnel the engineers have
found that Mount Royal, under which
the line will pass, was at one time
either an active volcano or was made
by lava being forced up through the
ground.
An Interesting proof of the fact that
at one time a great glacier flowed
from the Laurentlan mountains to the
St. Lawrence river was found In the
small heading on Ste. Monique street.
This was a piece of Laurentlan gneiss,
a rock peculiar to the Laurentlan
mountains, and It Is believed that In
the past this rock was carried down
by a glacier, which probably emptied
Into the St. Lawrence river not far
from the present harbor.
Bear's Grease and Baldness.
In a recent volume of reminiscences
the writer states that baldness is
much more common now than In his
early days, and ascribes the modern
man's loss of hair to the decrease in
the use of "bear's grease." This
pomade was made principally of lard
colored and Bcented, but "hairdress-
ers, many of whom called themselves
professors," used to advertise 'the
slaughter of another fine bear,' ex-
hibiting a canvas screen depicting In
glaring colors a brown animal of ele-
phantine proportions expiring in a sea
of gore."
A Manager's Trials.
"I have to watch those players who
were on the stage all winter," re-

"Why so?"
"It's hard to get 'em to go nine In-

drama that only lasted four acts."

Sphinxes.
An American archeologist Is said
to have solved the riddle of the sphinx
by boring Into Its head and removing
the sand. Many a sphinx would be
one no longer after the head was sub-
jected to a similar process. Not un-
til after its head was bored into was
it suspected that the sphinx-head in
Egypt was hollow. It is so with many
other sphinxes.—St. Louis Globe-Dem-
