"If the Republican members of the
House intend to permit Mr. Hays or
Senators Penrose and Lodge to dic
tate legislation to the next House,
then, of course, they do not desire me
for Speaker." (Are the Republicans
to permit the Republican National
committee chairman and the Repub
lican leaders of the Senate to dictate
legislation .in the House?) "If I am
elected Speaker the Republicans - of
the House may rest assured that I
will not permit any interference from
outside sources with the business of
the House or with whatever legisla
tion the House may desire to enact,
Perhaps that is one reason why Mr,
Hays and Senators Penrose and
Lodge do not regard my candidacy
with favor."
In the caucus, Representative Can
non, who was one of Mr. Mann's
campaign managers, denounced Mr.
Hays for his activities in Washing
ton and elsewhere. He said that Mr.
Hays was engaged in "fixing" dele
gates fort the next Republican Na
tional convention. He charged that
Hays had been in the southern states
to arrange for the pocketing of the
delegates from the "rotten bur
roughs." "Progressive" Republicans from
the western states refused to vote
for Mr. Gillett for the reason that he
voted for reciprocity and did not vote
for woman's suffrage. They said
that Mr. Gillett represented the re
actionary interests of New England.
It was predicted by Democrats,
prior to the Republican caucus, that
the Hays-Penrose-Lodge outfit would
ride rough-shod over the "Progres
sives," and that was done. The only
"things saved out of the wreck was
the- big committee on committees,
provided for by a motion made by
Mr. Mann. The Gillett people, led by
Representative Winslow of Massa
chusetts, presented a slate a hand
picked committee on committees
but it was broken by the Mann fac
tion. Mr. Winslow offered a resolu
tion, embodying his proposition; and
called for the previous question. For
his pains he was roundly denounced
for an effort to gag the caucus. His
committee was packed against Mr.
Mann. The worm turned and Mr.
Mann will dominate the committee on
committees against Mr. Gillott.
That is the situation in the House.
The Democrats realize that the Old
Guard is in control. If Mr. Gillett
rules he is the representative of the
Penrose group; if Mr. Mann is boss,
he is supported by Representative
Cannon.

A WORD ABOUT THE KIDNEYS
BY DOCTOR WATSON.
Peoplo are easily frightened when
they think something is the matter with
their lungs or heart, and woll they
may be; but few people understand
the dangers of disoased kidneys. These
organs have a duty of vital importance
to perform, and if they are diseased.
there is no tolling how or where the
symptoms may appear. Tho kidneys
are niters, nnd when they are hoalthy
they remove the poisons from tho blood
and purify it. When the kidneys aro
aiseasod, the poisons are spread every
where, and one f theso poisons is urio
acid. The urio acid is carried all
through the system and deposited in
various places, in the form of urate
Baits in the feet, ankles, wrists and
back often forming bags under the
eyes. Bometinips the resulting trouble
is called rheumatism, lumbago, sciatica
and backache. Finally, come stone
in the bladder, diabetes and Brigbt'e
disease.
Dr. Pierce, of Buffalo, K. Y., in recont
years, discovered tlint a certain com
bination of remedies would dissolve uric
aold (urate salts) in the svstem. He
found this combination to be harmless,
to that be made it up in tablets,
of double strength, and called them
Anurio Tablets. They dissolve urio
acid in the human system as hot coffee
dissolves sugar. If you have urio acid
troubles, don't delay in taking Anuric
Tablets, which can be secured in the
drug etores. You can write Dr. Pierce,
too, and be will tell you what to ent
and how to live so that more urio acid
will cot form in your system. Dr. Pierce
will not charge for this advice. J

It was Christmas eve, and cold ; not
the kind of cold which sends the red
blood tingling through your veins and
makes you want to be "up and nt
em," but that miserable damp kind
that eats Into the marrow of your
bones, attacking you from the rear and
sending cold shivers up and down your
spinnl column. It gives you a feeling
of dread and loneliness.
The three of us, "Curly," "Happy,"
and myself, were standing at the cor
ner of "Yankee avenue" nnd "Yiddish
street," waiting for the word "Stand
to," upon which we were to mount our
machine gun on the parapet and go on
watch for two hours with our heads
sticking over the top.
"Yankee avenue" was the name of
the fire trench, while "Yiddish street"
was the communication trench leading
to the rear. We were occupying "Y"
sector of the front line of our brigade.
The trench was muddy, and In some
places a thin crust of Ice was begin
ning to form around the edges of the
puddles.
We had wrapped our feet and legs
with empty sand bags, and looked like
snow shovclers on Fifth avenue. My
teeth were chattering with the cold.
Happy was slapping his hands on his
thighs, while Curly had unbuttoned
one or the buttons on his overcoat,
and with his left hand wns desperately
trying to reach under his right armpit
no doubt a "cootie" had gone mar
keting for Its Christinas dinner.
Then enme the unwelcome "Stand
to,1' and It was up on the flrestep for
us, to get our gun mounted. This took
about five minutes.
Curly, while working away, was
muttering ; "Bllme me, Christmas eve,
and 'ere I am somewhere In France,
'alf starved with the cold."
Happy was humming "Keep the
Home Fires Burning." Right then, to
me, any kind of a home fire would
have been very welcome.
It was black as pitch In No Man's
land. Curly stopped muttering to him
self and Happy's humming ceased.
There was serious work In front of us.
For two hours we hud to try and pene
trate that blackness with our .straining
eyes i,. -e that Fritz did not sumrlss
us with some Christinas stunt of lils.
Suddenly, Happy, who whs utaniling
on the flrestep next to me, gripped my
arm, und In a low, excited whisper,
nsked:
"Hid you soo that out In front, Yank,
-'
V1 -"
S 1 V -rT

in Front,
a little to the right of that black patch
In the barbed wire?"
Turning my eyes In the direct Inn In
dicated, with my heart pounding
against my ribs, I waited for some
thing to develop.
huro enough, I could make out a
Blight movement. Happy must have
seen It at tho same time, because he
carefully eased his rllle over the top,
ready for Instant uso. My rifle wns al
ready In position. Curly wns fnmhllna
with the flare pistol. Suddenly, "plop !"
as lie pulled the trigger, and a rod
streak shot up into the air as the star-
shell described an arc out In front;-It
hit the ground and burst, throwing
out a white, ghostly light. A fright
ened "mcouw," and a cat, with speed
clutch open, darted from the wire In
front of us, jumped over our gun and
disappeared Into the blackness of the
trench. Curly ducked his head, und
Happy let out a weak, squeaky laugh.
I was frozen stiff with fear. Pretty
soon the pump action of my heart was
resumed, and once more I looked out
Into No Man's land.
For the remainder of our two hours
on guard nothing happened. Then wo
"turned over" to file second relief and,
half frozen, wended our way throutfi
From the depths of the earth came
the notes of a harmonica playing
"Pack Up Your Troubles in Your Old
Kit Bag, and Smile, Smile, Smile."
Stumbling down the muddy steps we
entered the dugout. About eight boys
of our section, sitting on .their packs.
had formed a circle around a wooden
box. In an old ammunition tin six
candles were burning. I Inwardly shud
dered at this extravagance, hut sud
denly remembered that It was Christ
mas eve. "Sailor Bill" was making
cocoa over the flames of a "Tommy's
cooker," while "Ikey" Honney was
toasting bread In front of a trench fire
bucket, the fumes from which nearly
choked us.
As soon as we made our appearance
In the dugout the circle stood up, nnd,
as is usual with the English, made
room for us to get around the fire
bucket to thaw out our stiffened joints.
In about twenty minutes or so the
cold of the trench was forgotten and
we joined In the merriment. The mu
sician put his harmonica away, and,
bursting with Importance, Sailor Bill
addressed us : .
"Gentlemen, It Is now time for this
ship's conipariy to report progress as
to what they have done for the Christ
mas feed which Is to be held tomor
row at eight bells. Yank, let's hear
yours."
I reported one dozen eggs, two bot
tles of white wine, one bottle of red
wine, eight packets of Gold Flake
"fags" (cigarettes), and one quart
bottle 'of champagne, which had cost
me five francs at a French estamlnet.
This report was received with a
cheer. "Ikey" Honney was next In
order. He pr.oudly stated that he had
saved his rum Issue for the last
eleven days, and consequently was
able to donate to the feast his water
bottle three-fourths full of rum. This
would help out In making brandy sauce
for the plum pudding. Sailor Bill in
formed that he had a fruit cake, a
bottle of pickled walnuts, and two
tins of deviled ham which had been
sent out to him from London. Each
man had something to report I care
fully made a list of tho articles op
posite the name of the person donat
ing them, and turned the list over to
Bill, who was to act as cook on the
following day.
Just then Lance Corporal Hall came
Into the dugout, and warming his
hands over the fire bucket, said:
"If you blokes want to hear some
thing that will take you home to
Blighty, come up Into the fire trench
a minute."
None of us moved. That fire buck
et was too comfortable. After much
coaxing Sailor Bill, Ikey Honney and
myself followed Hall out of the dug
out und up Into the Are trench. A
dead silence reigned, and we started
to return. Hall Blocked our way, and
whispered :
"Just a minute, boys, and listen."
Pretty soon, from the darkness out
In front, we heard the strains of a
German cornet playing "It's a Long,
Long Trnll We're Winding." We
stood entranced till the last note died
out. After about a four or flve-mln-ute
wait the strains of "The Suwuuee
River" wore wafted across No Mrn's
Land toward us. I felt lonely and
homesick.
Out of the darkness from the fire
bay on our left a Welsh voice started
singing "It's a Long, Long Trull." It
was beautiful. The German cornet
player must have heard It, because he
picked up the tune nnd accompanied
the singer on his cornet. I had never
heard anything so beautiful In my life
before. The music from the German
trench suddenly censed, and In the air
overhead came the sharp crack I
crack! of machine gun bullets, as
some Boche gunner butted In on the
concert. We ducked and returned to
our dugout.
The men were all tired out,- find
soon rasping snores could be heard
from under the cover of blankets and
overcoats.
The next day was Christmas, and
we eagerly awaited the mall, which
was to be brought up by the ration
party at noon.
Not a shot or shell had been fired
all morning. The sun had come out
and, although the trenches were slip
pery with mud, still it was warm, and
we felt the Christinas spirit running
through our veins. We all turned In
nrfd cleaned up the dugout. Making
reflectors out of ammunition tins,
sticking them Into the walls of the
dugout, we placed a lighted candle
on each, the rays from which turned
night Into day.
Bill was hustling about preparing
tho Christmas spread. He placed a
waterproof sheet on the floor, and add
ing three blankets he spread another
waterproof sheet over the top for a
table cloth, and arranged tho men's
pneks around the edges for chairs.
Presently the welcome voice of our
sergeant came from the entrance of
the dugout:
"Come on, me lads, lend a hand
with the mail."
There wns a mad rush for the en
trance. In a couple of minutes or so
the boys returned, staggering under a
loud of parcels. As each name was
read off, a parcel would be thrown
over to the expectant Tommy. Mv
heart was beating with eagerness as
the sergeant picked up each parcel ;
then a pang of disappointment as the
name was rend off.
Each mun In tho dugout received
from one to four parcels. There was
still one left. I could feel their eyes
sympathising with me.
Sailor Bill whispered something to
the sergeant that I could not get. The
sergeant turned to me and said:
"Why, Mime me, Yank, I must bo
goln' balmy. I left your parcel up
in the trench. I'll be right back."
He returned In a few minutes with
a large parcel addressed to me. I

eagerly took the parcel and looked
for the post mark. Itwas from Lon
don. Another pang of disappointment
passed through me. I knew no one
In London.
Then It all flashed over me In an In
stant. About two weeks before I had
noticed a collection being taken up In
the section and at the time thought It
very strange that I was not asked to
donate. The boys had all chipped In
to make sure that I would not be for
gotten on Christmas. They eagerly
crowded around me as I opened the
parcel. It contained nearly everything
under the sun, Including some Amerl
canclgarettes. Tears of gratitude come to my eyes,
but some way or other I managed not
to betray myself. Those Tommies cer
tainly were tickled at my exclamations
of delight as I removed each article.
Out of the corner of my eye I could
see them nudging each other.
A man named Smith In our section
had been detailed as "runner" to our
captain and was not present at the
distribution of the mail. Three par
cels and five letters were placed on his
pack so he would receive them on his
return to the dugout.
In about ten minutes a man came
from the trench loaded down with
smnll oblong boxes. Each Tommy, In
cluding myself, received one. They
were presents from the queen of Eng
land, and each box contained a smnll
plum pudding, cigarettes, a couple of
Igars, matches and chocolates. Every
soldier In the British army received
sne of these boxes on Christmas day.
At last Sailor Bill announced that
Christmas dinner was ready nnd we
lost no time In getting to our respec
tive packs, sitting around in a circle.
Smith was the only absentee, nnd his
parcels and letters, still uuopened,
were on his pack. He was now a half
tiour overdue.
Sailor Bill, noting our eagerness to
jegln, held up his hand and said:
"Now boys, we're all shipmates to
gether. Don't you think it would be
better to wait a few rnfnutcs more foi
Smith?"
We all assented, but In our hearts
we were cursing him for his delay,
Ten minutes passed fifteen then
twenty. All eyes were turned in Sailor
Bill's direction. He answered our looks
with:
"Go to It, boys, we can't wait for
Smith. I don't know what's keeping
him, but you know his name is In or
ders for leave and perhaps he Is so
tickled that he's going to see his wife
and three little nippers In Blighty, that
he's lost his bearings and has run
aground."
We started in nnd waxed merry for
a few minutes. Then there would be
an uncomfortable pause and all eyes
would bo turned in the direction of
the vacant place.
Uneasiness seemed to prevail.
Suddenly the entrance , to the dug
out was darkened and a form came
stumbling down. With one accord we
all shouted:
"Come on, Smith, you're missing one
of the best Christmas dinners of your
life."
Our sergeant entered the dugout,
One look at his face was enough. We
knew he was the bearer of III tidings.
With tears In his eyes and a catch in
his voice, he asked:'
"Which is Smith's pack?" We all
solemnly nodded our hends In the di
rection of tho vacant plnce. Without a
word the sergeant picked up the let
ters, parcels and pack and started to
leave the dugout.
Sailor Bill could stand It no longer,
nnd just as the sergeant was about to
leave he asked :
"Out with it, sergeant, what's hap
pened?" The sergeant turned around, and In
a choking voice, said :
"Buys, Smith's gone west. Some
Moody German sniper got him through
the napper as he was passing that
bnshed-ln part In Yiddish street."
Sailor Bill ejaculated:
"Poor old Smith 1 Gone westl" Then
he paused and sobbed out: "My God,
think of his wife and three little nip
pers waiting In Blighty for him to
come home for the Christmas holi
days."
I believe that right at that moment a
solemn vow of vengeance registered
Itself in every heart around that fes
tive circle.
The next day we burled Smith In a
little cemetery behind the lines. While
standing around his grave our artillery
suddenly opened up with an Intense
bombardment on the German lines,
nnd as every shell passed, screaming
overhead, we sent a prayer of ven
geance with it.
As the grave was filled In I imagined
n huge rainbow embracing the graves
In that cemetery on which, In letters
