While It Is not definitely assured that this operation, which is quite simple, will accomplish In the patient the result desired, It Is at least certain to relieve him of much physical distress, as well as the irrita bility of temper that Is so often-one of the unlovely accompaniments of those dlsugreeablo humors. Adenoids are enlarged poBt nasal or pharyngeal tonsils. Evidences of their presence are frequently, though not necessarily, breathing through the mouth and a pufflness of the cheeks, fn those who manifest the most mnrkcd physical evidence of tholr presence the nose Is broad and low. It does not follow that adenoids produce Intellectual and moral deficiencies, but It Is true that there Is a probability of such pathological tendencies. The commonest tendency, however, Is to lassltudo, Indifference to surroundings and stupidity. That Individual cases may bo found In which the growth Is diroctly responsible for .criminality is freely acknowledged by physicians. Looks for Good Results. In spoaklng of the operation re ferred ,lo a prominent Philadelphia practitioner gave expression tq the above facts and ampllflod them by say ing: “There Is no positive assurance that the removal of adenoids In one of criminal tendencies will effect a moral euro. Vlelousnoss may result from tholr presence, but so many other thlngB are to be taken into considera tion that it Is practically Impossible to lay down a dictum to cover the sub ject. I do not believe that there Is uuy reason to look for hotter success In the romoval of adenoids, as far as montal and moral regeneration Is con cerned, thnn that which repaid the fa mous surgeon who, believing that If the prossure upon the brain could be roducod Idiocy would be stricken from the list of human miseries, success fully sawed the skull Into two longitu dinal sections, and, finding the result to bo what he desired, performed the snino operation on nineteen others, all of which operations were failures. His notion waB that if the brain Is given room nil Idiots will become rational. What was true in <ne Individual code, you bco, was not true In the other ensos. The same holds good In rela tion t6 ndenolds.” The doctor was asked If there are likely I o bo as lnneilcial results from this operation ns It Is claimed will fol low the correction of visual defects. “More, I should say, most decidedly,” he replied.’ "The results are more likely lo be corrective of evil In the former Instance than the latter, in which I take very little stools. If the child afflicted with ndenolds is crim inal tn morals It will not be any risk to remove the growth and If the result Is not favorable the physical benefits are nt toast of some value. The Incon venience and suffering removed In nn aggravated case might and probably would result In Intellectual Improve ment, and this, In turn, might Influ ence the morals. As a panacea for viciousness, however, au operation cannot be a guarantee. Still, the bene fits arc so desirable that It Is advisable to have the adenoids removed If n surgeon decides In favor of their re moval. Obviously, cases will present thomsclves that make It necessary to remove them, but there are thousands who have had ndenolds and never knew of their presence. They atrophy without having caused any annoyance. "On the whole, I should *Bay there is no recognized relation between ade noids nnd criminality and consequent ly It has not been determined that there will be any lessening of the number of vicious children by remov ing the objectlonnble growths,” There is no need wprrying along in discomfort because of a disordered di gestion.

Let the stodgy statesmen, who think In cubes and talk In rectangles, tell it that a sense of humor Is a fatal Im pediment to a career In congress. "Get a reputation as a humorist," th'qy say, "and you will never amount to anything.” That may be true; but the stodgy statesmen nev.er seem to think how little they amount to themselves. They exclaim against a story as an Illustra tion for a speech, but they all try to tell a story or two when they are talk ing, and they make a mess of It. There are some excellent precedents for story-telling in our history. Lincoln was somewhat of an anecdotlst, anS there have been a few others. Still, the dull and deadly statesman doeB not see It In that light. "Look at Sun set Cox,” they say. “He was a man of great parts, but he was a humorist, and-see what became of him.” Well, what did become of him? He died and there Is a statue of him In New York, erected by the letter-carriers for his successful efforts in getting them something like the wages they should have. "Beware erf the fate of John Allen!" shout the stodgy ones. Sad fate, John Allen’s! Served many years In the house, had more friends than any other man there, had more fun than any other, had .a place wait ing for him as soon as he quit, and Is now living on hls cotton 'plantation In Tupelo, and still having fun. There are no statues to the stodgy statesmen In New York or anywhere else, so far as Is known. They come with corrugated brows, last a few ses sions, go home and stand around sol emnly until they die. They cannot afford to joke. Oh, no, it would ruin their careers, and that is the greatest joke of all the jokes there are! Notwithstanding this weight of opin ion, this heavy verdict against humor, congress always has a momber who defiles the superstition. The humorist of the present house Is J. Adam Bede, of Minnesota. Bede Is not only n pretty fair funnj'-man, but a beneficent Creator mapped’ him out physically for the part. He is a small man, with a wrinkled-apple sort of face. He looks like an anecdote. The fun bubbles out of him naturally. It Is mostly of the true American style. He Is lavish with exaggerated similes. His metaphors are grotesque. He makes some excel lent epigrams and, with It all, he secs the.bright side of everything and talks about It. The sun is alwayB shining for Bede. He Is an Ohio product. After he finished school he worked In many states ns a reporter. He finally land ed In Duluth, and has had various newspapers there. He was a Republi can In hls early days, but, being versa tile, he went to the Democratic party In the first Cleveland campaign. This transference of political fealty got him a United States marshalshlp from President Cleveland, and he hung on to the Democratic party until the money Issue arose.- Then he shifted back to the Republican party and, as he says in hls biography In the Con gressional Directory, "decided to come to congress as a Republican.” They twitted Bede about that when he was making hls first Important speech In the house. "Haven’t you been ft Democrat?” John Sharp Williams asked him. "I have,” Bede responded promptly. “I wnnt tq say finally that I voted the Democratic ticket a few times, and I know how hard it is. My first and my Inst vote were Republican, but, In the mean time, I voted the Democratic ticket—and It Is necessarily the mean time when you do a thing like that” He is ns shrewd hs he Is funny. Mark Hanna heard him speak and sent for him to come to Ohio when Her rick was making hls first campaign for governor. Bede spent six weeks In nnd about Cleveland, making several speeches every day nnd getting great crowds. When he had finished, Hanna asked Bede what he owed him, think ing to pay him liberally for hls time. “Oh,” said Bede, “I will call it square If you will pay my expenses and see that I am put on the rivers and har bors committee when I go to con gress.” Hanna promised and kept hls word, tend Bede Is on that committee now. He Is active In rivers and harbors work, for Duluth needs a lot of that sort of money. An expert was before the committee a short time ago and was talking theories. “Here, here!” broke In Bede. “There are sixteen lawyers on* this committee nnd two gentlemen, Lortmer and my self. Now you have given these law yers all the theories they can digest, please contribute a fact or two to the other two members.” Bede made hls first hit in congress when, In January, 1904, he spoke for the first time at length. He was advis ing the- Democrats to join with the Re publicans and nominate Roosevelt Turning to the minority, he said: “You Democrats cannot elect any thing. The election this year will he nothing but a supplemental census.” They laughed so much at that that the austere Hemenway, who was In charge of the floor, gave Bede all the ZuZV ClNGER SNAPS—Crisp, delicious, golden-brown morsels of sweetness and spice that everyone loves.

Bede’s humor isn’t rdfined. It. is prnlrle humor and smells of the soil. He Jokes about the common things of life and would pain a literary person who demandB polish with hls jokes. He was talking one day about the di versified . agricultural Industries of Minnesota. He told about the. farmers turning from exclusive wheat-growing to dairy and similar pursuits: “I have gone Into a little place In the backwoods where they kept two of three cows and set the milk on a shelf- in the living-room, where they dis cussed Democratic politics and chewed tobacco and did a lot of things. When they brought their butter to market you could taste every member of the family.” , That Is Artemus-Wardsy enough to suit the most strenuous dethand for "native” humor. That Is Bede’s kind. He can string paragraphs, like that to gether for hours at a time, and every time he gets up In the house he has a crowd to hear him, although most of the statesmen deprecate humor and say it Is -the ruination of a career, and, by the same token, empty the house, instead of filling it, when they talk. Bede took hls six children up to the White House one day. "What have you here?” the President asked. "My string of Bedes,” the Minnesota man replied. Not very intellectual, was It? No, nor Is any of Bede’s humor, hut every body laughed at it, and, when you come to think of it, that Is what humor Is for. The slncerest tribute that can. be paid to superiority is imitation.

From the Philadelphia Press. - Wilkesbarre, Pa., June 17.—Seventy- year-old Mrs. Charles Skinner, of Jack- son, Columbia county, took her first ride on a railroad train yesterday af ternoon and was so frightened that the train had to be stopped and she was allowed to get off and walk. She was taken from the farm, where she has lived all her life, to Benton Station, nnd with her son boarded a train for Danville after much persua sion. No sooner did the train begin to move, however, than she started to scream, and as the rumble of the wheels and the motion of the train in creased and she saw the landscape sliding past, she became so frantic that her son and the passengers feared she would die of fright The conductor stopped the train, and she and her son alighted half a mile from the station.
