Often many of the senators have already studied the question being dlscuBsed by one of their colleagues and, having other questions to work on, leave the chamber while some particular speech Is going on. If you visit the senate often you will find that there are always some people paying attention to what Is going on and generally among these are persons desiring Information on some particular point It very often happens that some one thinking he knows how be will vote upon a certain subject Is given a new point of view or additional information through a speech which causes liim tb change his intention with reference to his vote. It is not considered an insult by any senator when others leave the chamber during his speech, since each senator Is aware of the committee meeting* which must be carried on and of the work which his fellow members must do.--Washington Star.

Illinois, at the annual stockholders' meeting, February 24. Expenditures made for the improvement of facilities and to take care of th" development of the company's business must be made some time in advance, according to Mr. Insull. Authorization was voted by the stockholders to issue 200,000 additional shares of no par common stock in all respects on a parity with the present common stock of the company. Such stock is to be issued from time to time as seen fit by the board of directors. The present board of directors was unanimously re-elected. Records of the company's operations in 1930 showed a savings to cus„ tomers of $928,000 because of reduced rates instituted last, August. It was anticipated that the total savings over a twelve months' period would amount to approximately $1,750,000. In reviewing the company's business of 1930 it was shown to be the best year in its history. Gross business amounted to $35,405,930 in 19SO, or upwards of six per cent more than the preceding year . After paying out $4,754,670 in dividends, which was somewhat in excess of the dividends paid out in 1929, $2,809,376 was carried to surplus, which is approximately $227,000 more than the amount carried to surplus in 1929. n Commercial Tea The tea of commerce is the tender leaf or bud qf a bush grown In India.

AUCTION! Why Heat Rays Diffw Why Is it pleasant to bask In the sunlight, while a hot Iron held three or four inches from the face gives an uncomfortable sensation? The sun's seemingly cooler rays are actually much more energetic than those from the Iron, yet they cause no pain, says Popular Mechanics Magazine. One reason, according to electrical experts who have been studying the heating values of various kinds of apparatus, is that sunlight Is a deeply penetrating form of heat. It acts somewhat as a hypodermic, going beneath the surface of the skin without causing pain, while longer waves, etnanating from relatively cooler sources than the sun, are partly reflected from the surface and partly absorbed in a very thin layer where they Increase the surface temperature as in the case of heat from an Iron.
