But when the tumult and Jh& shout t, haj died, the vice-president could Kf'seen in earnest, familiar conversa tion with W. W. Mills, Marietta's Itjdiiig banker. And thereby hangs a tale. jt seems to be a rule of American public life that a prominent man !,, tun-? -one intimate friend from wj.om lio can set counsel and advice. Wilson had Colonel House, Harding! bad Kd .McLean. Coolidge has Frank j tf. Steams. ; And so law"8 has W. W, Mills. Mills mivw in nuvance. Mills, for example, was the only Ban in the country who knew in ad vance that Dawes' inaugural speech was going to dnp a bo mo shall iuEJ the cloistered precincits of the I'nited jjtates senate. Dawes had consulted with him ibout tiie speech before presenting it. Mills lud said, "Damn the torpedoes; o ahead." or words to that effect. Mills was ul-so on the inside t an earlier mine thnt Dawes touched off under official "Washington the time when be loosed u bit of unexpurgatcd irniy language on a congressional committee- investigating the doings i the A. K. F. "lie did it deliberately," says the tanker. Publicity Not Sought. "His idea wasn't to gain cheap pub licity. He simply wanted to blow up the whole pettifogging investigation. And he -succeeded." Now it has been reported, by poli tical writers and others, that Dawes doesn't want to be a vice-president ill his life. It has been whispered, rather loud ly, that he has one eye cocked on the White House. If there is one man in the country who knows whether Dawes will run for president, it in Mills. And if Dawes does run, it is a snc bet that Mills will be closer to him during the campaign than any other man. But Mills isn't saying. --TZ' CF5 Fn- m 5" I WHITEHDUSEATTIC WASIUNV.TAON. June IT -P) A program for renotation of the White House this spring affords Mrs. Cool idge her first real opportunity to dress the executive mansion up to her tastes. Congress has aprpupriatod $o0,i00 for the repair of the house, but nioM of this will be spent in renovating the decorations ami furnishings, and prac tically all of the work will be done on the first floor in the aeon-public rooms. W hile Mrs. Coolidge will have the choice of materials, it is believed she will follow custom and retain the standards in colors and designa estab lished for these rooms by Mrs. Koose wit.

WASHIXGTAOV, June 17 iP) A Department of agriculture officials are hopeful that the next Congress will authorize continuance of the de partment's building program begun in and thus permit construction of its activities under fewer roofs. At present the department uses 4"t build ings scattered to the four corners of Washington, one of (hem six miles from the administration office. j For IMi of the buildings the depart-'; me nt pays rent totalling $1S.'1,."iU0 an- : nually. For the eight-story structure housing part qf the bureau of agri- ; cultural economics and bioljgical Mir-1 vey, $.'t"i.:i(i0 rent is paid, while an-' other eight-story building used by the forest service costs iji.'i5.000 yearly, j The smallest rented building is a enrpenter shop hidden in an alley in! the center of Washington and for which $-70 is paid annually. The shop' stanila next to a brick stable in which Wilkes Booth is said to have slept nnd stabled his horse the night before he shot President Lincoln. The sta-j ble is used now by the war depart-! ment. j In 1003. during the term of office of Secretary Wilson, conMrtietion was begun of n building to house admin istrative offices of the department.: Two L-shaped wings were completed and occupied in March, inns.

It has been shown that the frequen cy of illness and neeidenis increases wirli the distance of the workers' homes from the works, and that this frequency was at its maximum for thosi workers whose homes were furthest away.

TAXES-Supplied by32Folger distributing Stations -Jpw enjoy these p nprodu&s of the Pacific Scvcnty-fivc years apo the pioneer coffee and spice mill of the Pacific Coast was established in San 1'rancisco by James A. I'olgcr. It was a modest plant, for in those days most housewives bought green coffee and roasted it them selves. But James A. l-'olgcr was a far sighted pioneer. He quickly sensed that high quality coffee roasted evenly and uniformly in commercial quantities would have an instant appeal to the Western housewife. I Ic was right. The business expanded rapidly. It grew with the country. The plant at San Francisco was constantly increased to meet the demand for Folgcr's products from the Coast States. Then, in 1900, I'olgcr's Coffee was introduced in the Middle-West and South-West the first I'acific Coast Coffee to be sold liasi oj the Rockies. So today in our Diamond Jubilee year it requires three complete plants and thirty-two distributing stations to supply I'olgcr's products to the retail trade in 29 states. On the first package of Folgcr's roasted cofTec was printed this slogan! "Our Success is Dependent upon Quality." On such a foundation has the Folger business grown to its Diamond Jubilee year. Quality has carried through these seventy-five years and must always be in the product before it is given a I'olgcr label. That is oiir assurance to the hundreds of thousands of loyal Folger cus tomers. Ean IVanoVo J. A. FOLGER & CO. Kansas City Dallas ShUuola, Japan mm OitH.M'ab COFFEE -TEA -SPICES EXTRACTS
