THt DAILY AHOMOREITI
Now Are the Days
Children Need Care
Summer Heat Dangerous to Little
Ones Whose Bowels Are
Neglected.
A mother cannot do better for her
children than to teach them from
tluir earliest days regularity of the
bowels. Regularity can be promoted
without the child knowing it by
watching its food and so varying the
food that all the elements of diges-
tion are used when nature will do
the rest. The future heulth of the
child defends u)on this.
ISut try as you will there are times
when the little one will become con-
stipated and bilious. In hot weather
immediate atttntion Is necessary as
many serious diseases result from
stuifed-up bowels. Don't give salts or
cathartics or purgatives as they are
too harsh but give a gentle pleasant-
tasting bowel stimulant like Dr. Cald-
well's Syrup Pepsin. It has been used
by the children of this as well as a
former generation and thousands of
families are proud to speak well of
if among whom we can mention Mrs.
Louise Reynolds 909 Jackson St.
Lynchburg Va. who is glad to rec-
ommend it and Mr. Chas. W. Allen
Manor Texas who writes that ha
often felt 100 years old but feels
younger now than his years.
THAT HALTS
Washington June 21. Declaring
the present rule grafting unlimited
debate in the senate encourages leg-
islative blackmail prohibits majority
rule and that the time has com;
when congress should be directly re-
sponsive to the -will of the people
Senator Owen today in an interview
dlsoussed reasons why his resolution
designed to end for all time objec-
tionable filibusters should be passed
by congress.
Senator Owen is fighting every
inch for the adoption of his resolution
and as time pases he is gaining much
support in the senate for the reason
that the dignified statesmen' of the
tipper house are beginning to realize
thoroughly that oftentimes legislation
greatly needed by the nation is held
up owing to the caprices or preju-
dices df ono or two men.
fri discussing his plan Senator Owen
said today:
"The time has come when con-
gress should be directly responsive to
the will of the majority of 90000000
people without delay evasion or ob-
struction. Wte are in the midst of the
most gigantic century in the history
of the world when every reason look-
ing to the welfare and advance of
the human race invites us to action.
Huge problems financial commercial
sociological are before us for solu-
tion. Step "by step the rule of the
few has been yielding to the increas-

There Is Satisfaction
In Every Swallow
Of Our Delicious
Soda Water
We are often asked why It
Is that our soda and other
fountain drinks taste s0 mucf.-
better than those served at
other places. It Is because the
water is perfectly carbonated
by our electric generator pro-
ducing that clear sparkling
water with a snap that goes
right to the thirsty spot It Is
because our fountain is so con-
structed that It produces the
coldest soda water that can be
drawn. It is because our foun-
tain Is the sanitary kind and
every glass of soda drawn from
it means health and happiness.

serve It at our fountain.

VOICE OF PEOPLE
Ing intelligence of the American peo
ple.
"The senate of the United States
alone remains capable of fatal ofo
strucbion to the national will. The sen
ate under the minority veto cloaked
under the theory of unlimited free
dom of debate has power to prevent
any action along any line of reform
pledged to the people by any party
which may be in power at any time
T'nder the rules of the senate of un
limited debate of irrelevant debate
of dilatory motions a faction by de-
bating lin relays and in being per-
mitted to read books and papers in-
cluding Martin Chuzzelwitt and Huck-
leberry Finn and last year's almanac
can detain the senate for days and
for weeks and make utterly ineffect-
j ive any attempt on the part of the
majority to carry out any great con-
structive program.
Faction Can Obstruct.
"Under ordinary parliamentary pro-
cedure where a 'bill introduced in the
bouse then referred to a committee
j by the committee referred to the ex
ecutive department for report consid-
ered" in committee read three times
in the house placed upon the calen-
dar debated in the committee of the
whole house and finally passed upon
by the house of representatives and
agoing them through a like tedious pro-
cedure in the senate even without
artificial obstruction the parliamen-
tary path is difficult iDiit under the
rules of the senate the path Is im-
possible for any reform bill. opposed
by a faction.
"A senator can hold up any meas-
ure indefinitely by endless talk by
the use of dilatory motions moving
'no quorum' moving to 'adjourn'
moving to 'take a recess' and repeat-
ins: these motions Indefinitely and de-
manding roll calls on trivial questions
Iby which actual freedom of debate
is destroyed. In the senate we see
the majority veto exercised over ma-
jority rule under the pretense of free-
dom of debate under the contemptl-
ble and odious pretense of freedom
of debate.
"It is not freedom of debate. The
minority veto is a denial of freedom
of debate. A senator In charge of
an important bill is driven to refrain
from debating the (bill for fear of pro.
moting the filibuster against It.
"The venerable age of this foolish
precedent will not save it from a
Just charge of imbecility.
"I am in favor of majority rule.
"I am in favor of making the nation-
al will immediately effective.
Doesn't Want Hands Tied.
"I am In favor of the senate of the
United States having the opportunity
to do and in favor of the senate
of the United States doing the things
required for the good of our great na-
tion. "I am opposed to the minority veto.
It is one of the last bulwarks of cor-
rupt privilege.
"I am opposed to the discourage-
ment of honest discussion owl I am
opposed to the invitation to minority
filibuster which this foolish rule of
'unlimited debate' invites.
"I am opposed to the legislative
blackmail which this rule of unlimit-
ed debate encourages for we have all
seen the senate consent to appro-
priations and to important amend-
ments to important ibills which ought
not to have been made but which
were made rather than jeopardize the
bill by the hostility of a senator who
had the right of veto under this idiot-
ic precedent.
"The minority veto permits the ma-
jority to be blackmailed on the most
Important measures. In order to con-
ciliate the unjust demands of the mi-
nority. The time has come to end
this evil. I (believe in the freedom
of debate. The majority is often in-
structed by the minority but freedom
of debate is one thing and uncontroll-
ed garrulity and unrestrained chatter
is another thing.
"Freedom of debate is honorable
but legislative blackma'l under the
cloalc nf freedom of debate is not
honorable. Freedom of debate Is com-
mendable hut a mlnorltv veto over
majority rule Is damnable.
Suggests Precedents.
"Fvery one of the forty-eight states
In both the senate and the house-
that is to say. In ninety-six of the
mcst distinguished parliamentary as-
semblages in the United States the
majority rule prevails and the right
to close debate.
"In the house of representatives the
previous question can be moved nnd
debate closed and majority rule made
effective.
"In the house of lords nnd in the
h1T1I.se of commons in Great Britain
they have majority rule.
"In France they have the right of
closing debate by the culture rule.
"in Germany they have the ma-
jority rule in the German reichstag.
"They have majority rule nnd the
right to close debate in Austria and
in Austro-Hungary and in Belgium
and in Denmark and in the Nether-
lands and in Portugal and in Switzer-
land. "The welfare of the nation de-
mands that the party put in power by
the people may by majority rule con-
trol the national affairs and respond
in good faith to the promises made
to the people and the righteous ex-
pectations of the people for relief.
If the rules of the setuite are not to
be changed then neither the demo-
cratic party nor the other party
republican or bull moose can never
carry out its promises made to the
people.
Party Pledges.
"The democratic party makes cer-
tain pledges to the people and ap-
peals to the people for their sup-
port upon these pledges promised to
ibe performed. The republican party
does like-wise yet neither party If In
a majority oan control the senate
so long as the minority veto remains
as a part of the rules of the senate.
If this rule Is not changed then both
parties in future campaigns should put
the following proviso as an addenda
to their national party platforms:
'"Provided however that in mak-
ing the above pledges to the Ameri-
can people it is distinctly to bo un-
derstood by the people that we make
these pledges on the understanding
that the minority party does not forbid
us to carry out our promises by ob-
structing the fulfillment of our prom-
ire to you by filibustering In the
senate In which event we will agree
to sustain the right of the opposite
party to veto iho redemption of our
pledges to you l.'v leaving the rules of
the senate in such condition that the
opposinig party may at its option vet0
our effort to redeem the promises
made to you.'
"If these rules be not changed then
the people can well say to the demo-
crats and republicans alike:
" 'Then be these juggling fiends no
more believed
Who keep the word of promise to the
ear and break it to the hope.' "

Deafness Cannot Be Cured.
by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way t0 cure deaf-
ness and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness Is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is Inflamed you have a rum-
bzllng sound or Imperfect hearing
and when it Is entirely closed Deaf-
ness Is the result and unless the In-
flammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to Its normal condition
hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by
Catarrh which is nothing but an in-
flamed condition of the mucous sur-
faces. We will give One Hundred Dollars
