MADE HIS APOLOGY AMPLE
lllsh Legislator Even Withdrew the
Words That He Was About
to Utter.
There Is In congress a western rep.
resentatlve of Celtic origin who has
more than once "stirred up the ani
mals" by his propensity to bait the
opposition.
On one occasion he rose to de
nounce the statements made in a
speech that had bf;en delivered by a
member of the other party. His im
petuosity led him to phrase his re
marks rather strongly.
"Order, order!" exclaimed the
speaker, pounding with his gavel.
Again, in a minute or two, did the
,son of Erin return to his charge of
fwllful misstatement. Again was he
called to "order."
It was a critical moment. His col
leagues, for motives of policy, did not
wish him to be put out of the debate,
o they hinted so by tugging vigor
ously at his coat tails.
Now, It's a very dangerous matter
to trifle with the tails of an Irishman's
coat, save In the cause of friendship.
Nevertheless, the Indignant yet good
natured member recognized the com
mand of his party and sat down after
delivering this Parthian flart:
"I obey the ruling of the House, and
TVaeg to retract what I was about to
observe!"
That one touch of Irish oratory took
the whole House by storm. Llppin
cott's. Not Even Mother.
Little Bob was much distressed be
cause the birthdays of his sister Ade
laide and his baby brother were going
to arrive before his did.
"All the burfdays before mine," he
mourned. "Couldn't you make mine
come first, muvVer?(.
"No," Interposed Adelaide, decisive
ly, "nobody can change your birth-day-i-not
even mother!"
' "You AmerlcaSe," said the London
man, "are very fond of what you call
pie. But properly speaking a pie
should have meat in It."
"Perhaps. But the beet packers
compel us to economize."
CHANGED HIS MIND.
' Mrs. Ferndale We haven't
any
eggs, but I can get some If you want
them very bad!

care for that kind.
PUTS STOMACHS IN ORDER.
No Indigestion, Gaa, Sourness or Dys
pepsia Five Minute After Taking
a Little Diapepsin.
There should not be a case of Indiges
tion, dyspepsia or gastritis here if read,
era who are subject to Stomach trou
ble knew the tremendous anti-ferment
and digestive virtue contained in Dia
pepsin. This harmless preparation
will digest a heavy meal without
the slightest fuss or discomfort, and
relieve the sourest, acid stomach in
five minutes, besides overcoming all
foul, nauseous odors from the breath.
If your stomach 1b sour and full of
gas, or your food doesn't digest, and
your meal don't seem to fit, why not
get a 60-cent case of Pape's Diapepsin
from any druggist here in town, and
UBiake life worth living.. Absolute re
lief from Stomach misery and perfect
digestion of anything you eat Is sure
to follow five minutes after, and be
sides, one fifty-cent case is sufficient
to cure a whole family of such trouble.
Surely, a harmless, Inexpensive
preparation like Pape's Diapepsin,
which will always either at daytime
or during night, relieve your sick,
our, gassy, upset stomach and digest
your meals, is about as handy and val
uable a thing as you could have in the
house.
Looking After the Eggs.
' mdy Betty, who is 4 years old and
never misses a trick, was taken the
other evening to a restaurant for her
upper, and with all the Importance
and sprightly dignity of her years
calmly ordered poached eggs on toast.
While the little family group was
awaiting its service the "kiddie"
mused herself by looking out of the
window, pressing against a screen to
get a closer view of something below.
She was warned by her mother that
the screen might give way and let her
fall to the sidewalk, perhaps injuring
her terribly. She drew away, thought
a minute, and then said naively:
"Would I fall if the screen went out?"
"You certainly would," was her moth
er's reply. "And would I get awful
hurted?" "Very likely." "Then what
would the man do with the eggs?"
There are a good many heroes in

Come to America
, '.,,'. 1 e?QVMf SAttttW f UfQtA.IHKfl

(W'.-:..;
IF A million South Europeans come
to the United States every year
for a century, what will the aver
age American be like at the end
of that time? What will be the
effect of these millions of fertile peo
ple upon the ultimate product of the
melting pot? If the American blood
becomes largely that of the peasants
of those down-trodden countries will
the dominant traits of the present bo
lost?
These are questions that are raised
by the figures Issued by the commis
sioner of immigration, for those fig
ures show a striking accentuation of
the immigration tendency that has de
veloped with in the laBt decade. So
far has the tendency gone that for the
fiscal year recently closed it is shown
that 83 per cent, of all comers haye
been from the races of South Europe
and Eastern- Asia. .The men who are
wont to look far ahead In the prob
lems of national well being are be
coming alarmed with the record of
each succeeding season.
For the year ending June 30 last,
1,041,670 immigrants landed in this
country. Of these 868,193 weer from
the Mediterranean sea countries,
only 173,377 were from all the rest
of the world 83 per cent, as against
17 per cent.. Even this 17 per cent,
cannot be counted as having a ten
dency to continue the present Ameri
can type, for In it is included such dis
tinctly different races as Japanese,
Chinese, Mexicans, Africans.
The point Is therefore that the
whole Influence of immigration is
toward breaking down the American
citizenship as it exists today' by put
ting in Its stead the blood of races
that heretofore have had nothing to
do with Its making. These people
have been coming to. America for such
a Bhort time that the effect that they
are destined to have in the course of
amalgamation Is an absolutely un
known Quantity. If the stream of im
migration continues in accordance
with the present tendency the Amer
ican of the future Is to be a new crea
ture under the sun, but whether im
proved by the process or mongrel,
only time can tell.
Diverting the Tide.
The necessity of adopting , some
means to divert the tide of Immigra
tion from the congested centers to the
country, where advantages not to be
found in the larger cities are afforded,
is also a Bubject deserving of serious
consideration.
Information has been complied,
showing the states and territories to
which alien steerage arrivals were
destined, their professional occupa
tion, and the races or peoples of
which they were members. Attention
is called to the fact that the newcom
ers congregate around or in the large
urban settlements, a fact that suggests
as a means of averting the dangers
of alien colonies and facilitating the
amalgamation with the people of this
country of the steadily increasing
stream of alien immigration, appro
priate action, either state or federal,
for their distribution to points where
their services can be best utilized
and they can most speedily learn the
benign effects of industrious and law
observing life. But a small number
of the arrivals are destined to the
southern and western states, nearly
all going to the eastern and middle
notwithstanding there is a demand for
labor from the former, especially in
the agricultural sections.
The Nation's "Gateway."
Ellis island is a great Interrogation
point to the immigrant In the course
of the regular official routine at least
40 questions are asked him. But even
after he has passed inspection and is
turned over to the tailroad department
in the immigrant station he has to re
spond to twice as many more. Almost
at every step the Immigrant has to
set down his baga or bundles or babies
and reply to some Interrogator.
In more ways than this Ellis island
is the great interrogation point of
America. One of the moBt serious prob
lems that the United States has to
solve today Is how to put up 'the bars
high enough to keep out undesirable
and objectionable Immigrants and yet
to let In those that will be useful and
valuable citizens in the years to come.
There are many phases to this big
problem. Another is how to distribute
the aliens throughout the country and
to keep them from crowding into the
already densely populated portions of
the big cities there to become a men
ace rather than a benefit.
From the ships that arrive from
southern Europe the steerage passen
gers are swarthy of Rkin and cay with
kerchiefs of brilliant colors. More
than one-third of the Immigrants that
have been arriving in the last seven
or eight years are from the south of
Italy. The steamers from ports on
the eastern shore of the Adriatic brjng
immigrants of stockier build and fair
er complexion, although some por
tions of the Austro-Hungarlan empire
send men and women that are as dark
as those from Sicily. More than one
fourth of the immigrants that now
pour through the portal at Ellis island
are from the dominions of Francis Jo
seph. In 1884 only four per cent, of the
Immigrants were from Italy; now the
percentage is nearly forty. From
Austria-Hungary in those days came
nine per cent, of the immigrants; that
empire now furnishes 25 per cent.
Russia's quota 16 years ago was four
per cent; now it Is more than sixteen.
The Scandinavian countries' propor
tion used to be ten per cent; It only
is half that now. Germany's was 40
per cent; now it is four. Ireland's
was 12; now It is five.

There have come to this country,
from the time the immigration records

Type of Immigrant.
fiscal year, nearly thirty million immi
grants. This is equal to the entire
population of Spain, Portugal and
Sweden combined. Compared with
this alien invasion of America the
history-making Bhiftings of the Franks
and Gauls and Goths and VandalB and
Huns were nothing at all. That is
one indication of the reason why the
government is beginning to regard
the influx of more than a million im
migrants a year as one of its most
serious domestic problems. Immigra
tion experts believe at least 25 per
cent, of the immigrants now neces
sarily admitted, although they may be
able to earn a living, are of no 'bene
fit to the country, but, on the con
trary, are a detriment; that their
presence tends to lower our standards
of living and civilization, and if they
were to remain away they would not
be missed, except by the transporta
tion companies.
No one considers New York as an
American city now. Londoners go
home and tell their folks that they
met very few Americans there. The
other day the kaiser greeted some
Manhattan Germans with the remark
that he was glad to welcome fellow
countrymen from the biggest German
city, in the world outside of Berlin.
Because the American city has a
bad Influence on the foreigner the
government is doing all it can to In
duce him to settle out in the country,
where he and his family will not be
huddled in tenements and .die from
tuberculosis and other preventable diseases.
THOUGHT ONLY OF THE GAME
Hllal Affection Lost Sight Of by the
8mall but Enthusiastic Lover
of Football,
Among the spectators at a match
between the Blackburn Rovers nud
the Olympic was a little lad about
nine years of age. Though the boy's
knowledge of the game may .have
been limited, his notion of correct
piny was extremely robust.
"Go It, 'Lymplc," he yelled. "Rush
'em off their pins. Clutter 'em. Jump
on their chests. Bowl 'em over. Good
for yer. Mow 'em down. Scatter "em,
'Lymplc."
When his parent neatly "grassed"
one of the opposing forwards, the
youngster expressed approval by
bawling, "Good fer yer, owd 'en," add
ing proudly to the spectators, "Feyth
er 'ad 'im sweet."
"Yes," said a hearer, "but he'll get
killed before the game's finished."
"1 don't care a carrdt If he does,"
said the boy. London Tit-Bits.

BABY WASTED TO SKELETON
"My little son, when about a year
and a half old, began to have sores
come out on his face. I had a physi
cian treat him, but the sores grew
worse. Then they began to come out
; on his arms, then on other parts of
his body, and then one came on his
cheBt, worse than the others. Then I
called another physician. Still he
grew worse. At the end of about a
year and a half of suffering he grew
so bad that I had to tie his hands In
cloths at night to keep him from
scratching the sores and tearing the
flesh. He got to be a mere skeleton,
and was hardly able to walk.
"My aunt advised me to try Cutl
cura Soap and Cutlcura Ointment. I
sent to a drug store and got a cake of
Cutlcura Soap and a box of the Oint
ment and followed directions. At the
end of two months the sores were all
well. He has never had any sores
of any kind since. I can sincerely say
that only for Cutlcura my child would
have died. I used only one cake of
Cutlcura Soap and about three boxes
of Ointment.
"I am a nurse and my profession
brings me into many different fam
ilies and it is always a pleasure for
me to tell my story and recommend

cure, are the very disorders that give way to Lydia E,
