Page Three LETTERS PILE UP ON SOLONS' PAY 'RACKET' WASHINGTON (U.P.)--Thecon- *ssional payroll racket has brought down on senators and rep resentatives a flood of indignant letters of protest. Voters hack home, feeling the press of hard times and high taxes, began writing their congressmen as soon as Raymond Clapper, chief of the Washington bureau of the Unit ed Press, started a series of dis patches last month disclosing how relatives of legislators received up to .$3,600 a year out of government funds but did no work. Fat "Pin Money" Checks. The letters piled up as each suc cessive dispatch revealed instances of other relatives on the congres sional payroll who act^d as politi cal contact agents, or congress men's wives and debutante daugh ters who lived in expensive hotels and drew government salary checks for "pin money," of lavish expendi tures on senatorial junkets. The dispatches attracted much attention in Washiington. It had been known here that some con gressmen employed relatives as clerks and secretaries. But few realized the extent of the practice or the number of relative-employes who did no work. When the house finally voted to make public its hitherto secret pay roll lists, more than 100 members were shown to be employing at gov ernment expense relatives bearing the family names. Many more rel atives with other names are known to be on the payroll. Cabinet Members Aroused. Cabinet members --so often the subject of investigation by con gress--followed the disclosures of •igressional graft with much in rest and enjoyment. The white house, which has no control over the payroll racket, received many letters asking that it be stopped. Hard working clerks who saw non working "in-laws" drawing the larger checks welcomed the reve lations. Representative Lindsay Warren of North Carolina, author of the resolution which made public the -use payroll, said that until the United Press dispatches focused at tention on the subject, he always had supposed the lists were pub lic. "As soon as I found they were not, I introduced my resolution," he said. Long Thinks It's "0 K. Senators, with but one exception, refused to discuss the payroll rack et, although the United Press dis patches showed the practice exists in the senate as well as the house. The exception was Senator Huey Long of Louisiana, who said in characteristic style: "I have no relatives on my pay roll, but I think others have a per fect right to put them on. There are certain confidential things that are better handled by kinfolk. A man has as much right to put them on his payroll as some one from China or from some one else's fam ily."

VARIOUS CAUSTS OF VOMITING. Dr. Samuel Thompson of New Hampshire, the founder of the Thompsonian system, achieved fame in restoring hundreds to health by very simple means, discarding all mineral drugs, but relying main ly on the cura tive powers of na ture, the use of profuse sweats, vapor baths, the stimulating prop erties of small doses of cayenne pepper with his herb teas, and the cleansing of the stomach by mans of "pukes" or emetics, using a tea made from 'MwJ Bi -W John Maxwell. the herb known as pule weed or lobelia inflata, to produce vomiting. Sometimes a little bayberry bark and aniseed were mixed with the lobelia herb. Only a small dose was needed to produce a vomit. The Indians had formerly used this herb for that purpose. But, no matter what the agency used, a vomit often gives relief, is DO YOU INHALE? ibSfe n/ 1 H tow 1 '.AaiimllliH»M 'f-' Si BfelwßPiM X 1 few JMSm w WIMiM Mr fIBKBnBi lb JwHr WgPWlm 'W'' f.Z it vBw&P' 7 A frank discussion at last on a subject that has long been "taboo" \wfev*'TET sleeping dogs lie!"

The drinking of sev eral glasses of warn water to which a little melted butter has been add ed, then tickling the throat with a feather, or thrusting the finger into the throat opening, will aid one in discharging the contents of the stomach. Where poison has been taken by mistake, rapid action is necessary. Generally the drinking of warm wa ter as mentioned is the handiest remed;', and, of course, if a known antidote to that poison is at hand it should be given. The ancient Romans were wiser than modern diners. The epicures, those who loved to eat and glut tonize, knew, however, the danger of an overloaded stomach. It was their custom to unload after each banquet, and so alongside of each banqueting hall they built a con venient retiring room which was called the vomitorium. If a meal has disagreed, if the stomach feels heavy and uncom fortable after eating, i? incompatible foods have been taken at a meal, it is a good plan to induce vomiting and get rid of the offending mate rial, and thus save headaches, griping pains and general distress. THE MILWAUKEE LEADER, TUESDAY, MAY 24, 19,^2 So much for voluntary vomiting. Now, let us consider involuntary vomiting. This is often part of a natural healing process, when the stomach throws off the superfluity of food or other injurious matter. This, however, may persist if there is a chronic disturbance of the sys tem. For instance, children will frequently regurgitate a part of their food, milk will curdle on the stomach, and be vomited, together with tough mucus. In such cases the child has either been overfed, or pasteurized milk has been used, or other wrong feeding has resulted in constipation, and the resulting acid ity has much irritated the stomach. There may also be worms in the in testinal tract. In such cases care fully avoid high protein foods--give no food for a few hours. Then cut down the quantity of milk, use only raw milk and first remove part of the cream. Orange juice should be added to the diet and the bowels daily relieved of enemas. Weak oat meal gruel will prove helpful. If necessary use a little honey, but do not use white sugar. Sometimes vomiting is a symptom of serious illness. If there is vomiting during preg nancy, the expectant mother should avoid gluttony and the use of pic kles, candy, salt and other condi ments, also fried foods, eat more fresh fruits and green vegetables, and get more exercise in the open air and sunshine. Involuntary vomitiug is nature's warning signal that the stomach is being mistreated.

In such cases there is a distinct call for cleaning house, and purify ing the blood stream, save in the case of strangulated hernia, where the bowel is twisted and nothing can pass through until the kink is taken out or that portion of the bowel has been pressed back into the peritoneal sack. In such a case, no food should be taken until me chanical relief is effected. Peppermint tea will often bring relief and help check involuntary vomiting. (To be continued).
