And one-half the thousands who

And while the jurors and mere than
naif the audience were mentally at odds
ever the question of her beauty MUs
Campbell admitted that she is "a geed
cook." After nil, that seemed a much
mere Interesting detail, innsmuch as the
jeung lndy is only sixteen years old,
and there arc any number of sixtecn-year-eld
beauties in this entertaining
old world, but hew many sixteen-year-old
beauties are there who can cook?
She's net one of these fancy cooks,
either. She can get right down te old
fashioned ham nnd cnbbnge If she's a

And she has another distinction.
Just because she herself is a beauty is
no reason why she should expect her

I don't care nt nil whether he's rich or

Don't Crowd, Gentlemen
It's quite premising for young gen

beautiful bathing girl runs te toler

Washington, Sept. 0 The conditie
of Mrs. Harding, wife of the President,
critically 111 at the White Heuse, was
reported at 0:30 A. M. today te b4
"ns favorable as can be expected at thlsj
time."
A bulletin issued by Brigadier Gen
eral C. E. Sawyer, physician ln at
tendance, snld:
"Mrs. Harding had a fairly geed!
night. The complications of yesterday
are less threatening this morning. On
the whole her condition Is as favorable)
as can be expected at this time."
Attorney General Daugherty, who re
mained throughout the night at the
White Heuse, said en leaving there
early today that Mrs. Harding had
passed a mere comfortable night, than
had been expected and that he Relieved
her "pluclrand will power" would carry,
her safely through the crisis.
Nete of Optimism
The note of optimism sounded by Mr.
Dougherty was echoed by ether attaches
at the White Heuse, who regarded as
distinctly hopeful the absence of any
untoward symptom in the patient's con
dition during the night.
Mrs. Harding's age she was born In
Marlen, O., In 1S6G had been expected
te hnve n distinct influence en the course
of her ailment. Without in any way
discounting the continued gravity of the
case, some of the attendants at her
bedside took courage anew today.
Temperature Approximately Nermal
Secretary Weeks, who was an early
visitor at the White Heuse, also waa
assured there had ben a distinct Im
provement in Mrs. Harding's condition.
The patient's temperature at 8 A. M.
was approximately normal, Mr. Weeks
said, en leaving, as contrasted te the
rather high temperature reported yes
terday. Operation May Be Necessary
Mere complete diagnosis of the exact
cause of the hydronephresis from w.hjch
Mrs. Harding suffers and a determina
tion of whether a surgical operation
may be necessary or advisable will net
be renched until after the arrival of
Dr. Charles II. Maye, of Rochester,
Minn., who new is en bis way te
Washington and Is expected here lata
tonight or early tomorrow. An ex
amination and consultation will be
held immediately. In' which Dr. Jehn
Finney, of Baltimore ; Dr. Sawyer, and
ether physicians who have been called
In will participate.
The nomenclature of medicine de
scribes hydronephresis as an accumula
tion of fluid In the pelvic region of th
kidney caused by an obstruction be
tween the kidneys and the bladder. Fre
quently it hns been misdiagnosed at
dropsy, nnd It is bellevd-that previous
Indications of the snme trouble in Mra,
Harding's case have misled intimata!
friends te believe that she was disposed
te a drepsical condition, known medi
cally as ascites.
Se far, it is understood that It hasjj
net been determined whether nnt ii
both kidneys are affected or what may)
be causing the trouble. Seme surgeons'
hnve found that it frequently Is caused
by what Is commonly known as floating
kiduev, when one of these organs geta
out of place and twists the canal which!
conducts the outgoing fluids, thus ob

hns been found te be caused by tnaf
lodgment of renal calcus a hard odd
