V Instances Showing What Faithful Sarvantt tha Country Has at Wash ington Senator Penrose's Dally Grind Requires Training of an Ath lete to Stand the Pace. Senators from the middle west seem disposed to interfere somewhat with the work of framing a tariff bill in tht Vnlted States Senate. Senator Nelson of Minnesota and Senator Dul llver of Iowa have Joined in a battle for a reduction In the duties on earth enware, glass, cotton and wool. It ia hardly probable, however, that the so called Insurgents with whom some of the western senators have allied them selves will prevail In the construction of the contemplated tariff legislation now being framed in the Senate. The senators classed as safe and sane seem to be sufficiently strong to enact leg Ir.lation which will be satisfactory to the entire country and which will not favor special Interests whether they be in the east or the west, the north or the south. The enacting of a tariff bill satis factory to all the people In a country as great as Is the I'nlted States is a most perplexing problem and calls forth the very best efforts of the best men In the nation. The making of the propopd new law is described In on entertaining way by a special Wash ington correspondent In a late Issue of the Philadelphia Ledger, who inci dentally pays a generous tribute to Senator Boles Penrose. The corre spondent writes In part ns follows: "In a country of great wealth ajid high civilization, governed under per ll.inientnry institutions, two houses, each of so many members, do not constitute the whole of the lawmaking body. Add a president or a king, with a swarm of administration bureaus, and still you are far short of the reality. "In the T'nlted States the most po tent of lawmaking Influences, leaving out the elections which provide the machinery and direct a few policies. Is the cooperation of persons who are employed or interested and that means almost the whole body of intel ligence In the country. An Ignorant man might Judge the quality of legis lation by his estimate of the limita tions of the Individuals who sit In the senate and house. Even so, he would underestimate the capabilities of the legislative institution. He might see, if he would look, that the mem bers who have a voice In legislation are far above the average of their communities, picked men, who may have shortcomings as compared with the Ideals set forth in rhetorical eulo gies of past and present, but. rated by the practical standards of life, pos sess exceptional ability and alert In dustry. For their guidance and as sistance, at their call and generally without being called, are lawyers of specialized training, experts supplied with facts, executive business men ac customed to the problems of the sub ject, college professors acquainted with Its literature; in addition are government bureaus supplied with rec ords and statistics and skilled em ployes to produce them at once when required. During a tariff session at Washing ton this actual cooperation of the en tire Intelligence of the country Is the really conspicuous feature of the law making process. The controlling direc tion of legislation may be right or wrong, wise for the nation or unwise. At least the mind of the nation Is jealously at work. "In one day a legislator may confer with a distinguished lawyer, a college Investigator, a foreman of a mill, a committeeman from some great asso ciation of business men and a procee sion of persons who know little of the subject, but have views to express, The next day brings the same expert ence. If the conclusion of the legist tor's vote shows no more than the bias with which he left home, at least he does not act In Ignorance. He Is a partner with the best capacity of his fellow-Americans. "He la certainly not permitted to remain In ignorance of the wishes of his district. What personal visits leave unsupplied the malls deliver to him Not only wishes, but masses of facts are laid before him. Even an Indolent man must do a great deal of hard work If his district is concerned about a tariff schedule, as nearly every dis trict In the Vnlted States is concerned for a higher or a lower rate. "With all the efforts of varied and combined Intelligence to aid congress with the highest expert Judgment and Information, the sovereign people do not know how well at least, how faithfully they are served. On one aide Congressman Payne gave ten hours a day last week to constant and high-strung attention. On the other-, Champ Clark, the Democratic leader, a tick man, was at his post; and each was busy for hours when the house was not in session; consulting, con ferring and listening to the counsel of his allies. And this after a month of weary days and nights of labor on the tariff bill. These long days were conscientiously devoted to the service of the country or of party, which te an Americ' means the same thing. "Pennsyhunlans bave been told th: Boies PenroBe la a p.'.liticlan. Grant for the sake of argument that he is a party manager aud nothing more, Just the same, he Is a powerful factor in the affairs of the nation; to whom du ties of supreme moment are confldod by the most important legislative body in the world. Not only that, every day he 1b in consultation on torms of intellectual equality with great ex perts on trade subjects, eminent busi ness men of Philadelphia, represent atives of labor unions and successful manufacturers. At 9 o'clock every morning he is meeting these visitors at the W'lllard. Ho may have to hurry to a mectiug of the finance commit tee. At 1 o'clock he la at his quarters in the rooms of the pottofflce commit tee, where he Is required to meet oth er representative men and delega tions. The same duties recur at 6 'clock. All day correspondence Is pil ing up to be classified by clerks for hla inspection. From breakfast until midnight this routine of steam engine work In tho country't or party's serv ice goes on. Though he Is a phyBlcnl giant, he must pursue the training of an athlete to stand the pace. This picture may not conform to the popu lar Image of Senator Penrose, but It Is the bare truth about him during a tariff session. "These are examples of the duties of a legislator. The country does not begin to know how well it is served. The world does not know how won derfully the Intelligence and knowl edge of the I'nlted States are blended and welded In the process of legisla tion. Agree or not about the net re sult or the underlying purpose, the process Itself Is a marvel of coopera. lion, hard work, energy and ability." Saved by a Photograph. A very remarkable Incident occurred at Itlo do Janeiro. A passenger on board one of the large liners took a photograph of the harbor. It Included a small yacht which lnul sailed in the morning with two men In her, but returned In the evening with one only. The survivor said his companion Imd fallen over board, but bis statement was not be lieved. He was tried and Hentenccd to death. The matter had by this time come to the ears of the photographer, who remembered that the picture had been taken on the day of the "crime" (or nccldenti and that the scene em braced a yacht. On examining the print more carefully he noticed a small siMvk on the anil aud In order to de termine what It wns had an enlarge ment made. It proved to be the figure of n man fulling. It was shown to tho authorities at once, and the condemned man was released. Dropsical Oysters. With a sneer the oyster opener point ed to a IiriwiiIhIi smear upon a Saddle Koi'W shell. "Some fool," said he, "hus beeu try ing to fatten up a butch of Saddle Kocks with comment. You might as well try to Invigorate flowers with corned beef hash. Hut it Is a common error to believe that corntueal or oat; meal will fatten oysters. I continually find oysters with their shells stained with those grains. It makes me laugh. As a mutter of fact, there la no such thing ns fattening oysters. All you can do Is swell them up with water, pre clsvly tle same ns water swells a sponge. You put them lu fresh water, which.

"Most ordinary colds will yield to the simplest treatment," says the Chicago Tribune, "moderatlve laxatives, hot foot baths, a free prespiration and an avoid ance of exposure to cold and wet after treatment." While this treatment is simple, It requires considerable trouble, and the one adopting It must remain in doors for a day or two, or a fresh cold is almost sure to be contracted, and In many instances pneumonia follows.
