CCF.F.A !i.sP.~SS WRITES OF GORDON LEE'S FEALTY. Corra Harris, the author, in an in teresting article descriptive of the opening of congress, called to declare war with Germany, and in the course of the article thus refers to Congress man Gordon now convalescent after a serious illness, and the part he took in the organization of ihe low er house of congress: When the clerk reached the names beginning with the letter “L” there was a universal turning of heads on both sides of the house, Every man’s neck was lengthened, every eye was strain ed. There was a stir at the door on the right hand of the speaker’s desk, and a man entered the room. A tall man, now much too small for his large clothes, very pale, “A Pine Pair of Boots Makes a Bigger Hit With tin? ■r M Than a Swell Cravat. ’ ’ and what steinberg says is so r I ’'HE ladies size you up from the tip of your toes to the tip of your I nose. they make a searching inventory of a man’s wearing apparel be fore they look into his character or inves **gate his Dunn-and-Bradstreetnes.*; so, my k ) fellows, to be “in right” at the get-off, fit I your feet with some fashionable footwear.

Instantly there was a roar of applause from the democrats. "Gordon Lee of Georgia-!” shout ed the clerk. "Champ Clark!” responded the man who had just entered, and who was immediately led from the room. Three w’eeks ago Gordon Lee was stricken with pneumonia at his home in Georgia. When he was informed of his condition he pulled an overcoat on ever his chill and started for Washington with a temperature of 103. He knew that if he lived his vote would be needed on the second of April to sustain this administra tion. If he died, it seemed that he was determined to die "at the "THE EARTOW TRIEU.NE THE CAR TEFSVILLE NEWS, APRiL 13, 1917. front.” It was the act of a patriot. On the morning of April 2 he was still in bed, with his physician as a doorkeeper to prevent him from going to the house. The doctors were for saving his life, but Lee . was determined to save his vote and use it where it would do the most good. He is still confined to his bed, but the republicans are not likely to put anything across in this congress if Lee’s vete is needed to defeat it. TAKE “CASCARETS” IF HEADACHY, BILIOUS AND CONSTIPATED Best for Liver and Bowels, Bad Breath, Bad Colds, Sour Stomach. Get a 10-cent box.

Everything except the public wa; sold out at the opening performance of the Greenwood Amusement Com pany last evening. The big tent, was packed until there wasn’t standing room and a good many people had to be turned away because there wasn’t any room left in the tent for them. The management announced at 8:30 o'clock that there "were 6,000 people in the tent. If there were not that many, it was because they couldn’t get in. No attraction appearing here, out side of the Birth of a Nation, has made as big a hit on opeiwng night as did the Greenwood show. The opening at traction was a combination minstrel and vaudeville and the vast throng v.as kept in an almost continuous up- GEO. B. GREENWOOD, Gen. Mgr.
