State Vault Defies Kansas Labor Court Refuses to Open Treasure' Office- Can not Get at St Million DnUan' Worth of Bond Locked Within. Thirty-one million dollars worth of municipal, county, township and school district bonds are. locked in the big vault in the office of Waiter L. Payne, state treasurer and the vault- doors refuse to open. Not since the big safe was closed Thursday evening have the employes' in the treasurer's office seen the piles of bonds which are deposited with the state or are owned by the state school fund commission. Included in the list of securities are several million dollars worth of liberty bonds and other government issues. None of the actual cash of the state is kept in the balky vault which on sev eral occasions has refused to perform Its proper functions. Experts have been sent -for and it may be several days before the bonds are' available to state employes who clip the coupons and direct the work of the state fiscal agency. There is a strong Impression that some of the mechanism of a series of clocks inside the vault has been' im paired. There is also a belief that the motor may have defied the industrial court act and gone on a strike, or that one or two of the clocks were not 1-properly wound. In the meantime registration and coupon clipping work of the state department Is being held up. A large -sledge hammer has been in stalled and at intervals a clerk takes exercise by pounding the big steel door. Each smash of the hammer registers the same as one clock tick sixty ticks or sledge hammer blows for each minute- 3,600 for each hour and 86.400 for each 24 hour day. No one Is very certain as to whether the j clock was set,for 24 or 48 hours or for one week. 1 Once during the T. T. Kelley ad ministration, state house janitors formed a sledge hammer brigade and registered 48 hours of sledge hammer taps before the vault decided to re lease the supply of state securities. A 24-hour tieup occurred while the lat Mark Tulley was treasurer and de lays were encountered while Earl Akers was in office. But the present suspension of business is becoming serious and work of the department will be delayed until an expert re moves a collection of steel bars and nuts and bolts and the proper sledge hammer influence is registered to open the strong box.

"I did not know until long after wards that it w-as an ohsession and that Admiral gims had a mind which cenuflected to British views and at times was closed to the views of his superiors In his own country," Daniels declared. Against the "mole hills of mistakes" which Sims made Into mountains, Dan iels said, would stand the achieve ments of the navy during the war. "The world marveled at accomplish ments which will thrill unborn gener ations," he predicted. Did Kot Measure. F4ims "did not measure Up tf ex pectations," on six counts. Daniels Said. He charged the admiral "lacked vision" to grasp the navy's "bold and audacious" plans, such as the mine barrage, that he seemed to accept the views of the British admirallty as su perior to those of his own, that he gave maximum credit to British accom plishments while minimizing America's, that he "ooveted" British decorations and seemed to valua them more- than those from his own government, that ha "aspired to become a member of the British admiralty," and that he viewed protection of merchant ships as the main operation.

NEW RULING MAY MIX THINGS Department of Justice Agents Say Makes JTo Difference. Attorneys for Prosecution Hare Tons of Evidence Beady. Chicago, May 10. Twenty-six al leged radicals who are said to have gathered here last September to form the "communist labor party, were placed on trial in criminal court this morning, charged with conspiracy to advocate the overthrow of the United States government and with criminal syndicalism. They are numbered among the 165 communists, I. W. W. and communist laborites indicted last January follow ing the nation-wide round-up of sus pected radicals. Forty-two, Including three women, were indicted as organ izers of the communist labor party, but sixteen have never been apprehended. Several are reported to have fled to Mexico and Europe. One, John Reed, Harvard graduate, magasinewriter, au thor and first Bolsheviki envoy to the United States, is now in jail at Abo, Finland, according to state department reports, accused of smuggling from Bolsheviki Russia. Wilson's Ruling Is Problem. What effect Secretary of Labor Wil son's ruling that membership in the communist labor party did not consti tute grounds for deportation, will hAve on the trial is problematical. The state contends it will have none, as the de fendants are American citizens charged with conspiracy. The outstanding figure of the group which faced Judge Oscar Hebel in criminal cpurt this morning is Wil liam Bross Lloyd, millionaire sergeant at arms of the communist labor con vention. Lloyd who is the son of the late Henry D. Lloyd, said to have been a rich Boston philanthropist is a close friend of William D. (Big Bill) Haywood, former secretary gen eral of the I. W. W. and now head of the I. W. W. national defense com mittee. Haywood is under sentence of twenty years in Leavenworth prison but is at liberty under bond furnished by Lloyd, pending an appeal, whicn will be heard next Monday in federal court here. Lloyd ajso furnished J10.000 bond for Haywood when the I. W. W.. reader was arrested in the January roundup and indicted by the state. State's attorneys are prepared to submit samples tons of pamphlets, books and records seized in raids on the radical headquarters here to sup port the Charge of conspiracy. The trial they estimate will last three months. Selection of a jury alone is expected to take from four to six weeks and exhaust a venire .of 1.400 men as each side will have approxi mately 300" challenges. V i Among the- s'tate witnesses will' be Ole Hanson, former mayor of Seattle and a member- of. the central -execu tive committee, which attempted to ruTe Winnipeg:, Canada, during the general strike last year. The defense is represented by a number of leading lawyers, several of whom have been identified with near ly every prominent Socialist or radical trial in recent years. Among them are Clarence Darrow, Seymour Stedman and William A. funnea. COTTON TRIMMING ON SILK FROCKS.

All persons interested in the work were invited to attend. increase in crime is largely due to the decadence of the home as a so cial center, according to Warden J. K. Codding, of the state penitentiary, who spoke Sunday morning at the First Methodist church. Lack of sufficient work to do around home, and the apparent impossibility of being entertained in the family circle, afford too much time for loaf ing, the motor car. and the pool halls as means of entertainment. Present day fathers are too busy to be com panionable with their sons. Daughters seek entertainment outside their homes because they are not always given satisfactory opportunities to en tertain at their own homes. "The art of entertainment in the American home has been lost," Warden Codding declared. XORTH TOPEKA DEFEATS BELLS. Shut Out Game in Second or City Scries Here Sunday.

The Last Corn When you end your cornwithBlue jay.it will be the last corn you let grow- You will knowhow to stop the pain. And how to quickly and completely end all corns. There are millions who use Blue jay now, and they never let a corn remain. The new-day way Blue-jay is the new-day way, the scientific method. It was perfected in a laboratory world-famed for its surgical dressings. It is supplanting the many treat ments which are haih and inefficient. It has made paring as ridiculous as it is unsafe, for paring doesn't end corns. Do this tonight: Apply to a corn a Blue-jay plaster or liquid Blue-jay whichever you prefer. Mark how the pain stops. Then wait a little and the com will loosen and come out BBU29 What that corn does all corns will do. Some 20 million corns a year are ended in this way. Don't suffer corns. Don't have your feet disfigured. They can be ended almost as easily as a dirt-spot on your face. They are just as inex cusable. Don't forget this. It means too much to you. Ask your druggist for Blue-jay.

Frederic J. llnskin, Director, Washing ton. I. 'While there ia an immense amount of corn in the hands of the farmer! and in country elevators, Chicago is finding it difficult to supply immedi ate demands even at the prevailing and hitherto unheard of prices. While there is a huge supply of wheat in the country, and this cereal is command ing; more than three dollars a bushel in the Kansas City market, fewer than 100 cars a day are arriving at that terminal. It may be that conditions would improve if the interstate com merce commission would grant the railroads the increase in freight rates that is being asked for, without fur ther delay. Possibly some of the roads find themselves confronted Wyith the situation that the more freight they haul the more money they lose. Or it may be that they prefer to let the freight accumulate until they ob tain the increase which they are seek ing. Since it is well understood by even body concerned that the advance in rates is inevitable why should the readjustment be delayed while the business of the country suffer and prices continue to advance? A speaker in tbe convention of re tailers at Ottawa ia quoted as saying that Hoover "had cornered a produce market in .1114 and made 14, 000,900 on the corner by forcing up prices and that he did not have the necessary Insight into agricultural conditions to handle the food situation success fully." It may appearhowsver. to the uninitiated that a man who can make 14,000,000 on produce has a con siderable "insight into agricultural conditions." There seems likely to be embodied in the soldier relief legislation now being; framed by congress a plan of paid-up insurance which members de clare will be the most attractive of any of the five forms of benefit which it ia Intended to present to the soldiers for their optional selection. It is esti mated that if ,S90,000 former service men take advantage of the insurance feature the ultimate cost to the gov ernment will be about 18,000,000,000. The Insurance plan might be all right, but left an option in the matter of compensation It is probable that a ma jority of service men would take a cash bonus which many would quick ly spend in a way that would further boost prices and leave the benefi ciaries no better off In the end, while (ha taxpayers' bill would still be un paid. Herbert Hoover appears to know where th sugar ia going. He pro poses that th candy manufacturers be rationed.. If the public want sugar for its offee let it cease to buy candy. Announcement is made that the war department will place on sale, imme diately, 2,000,000 suits of overalls. As usual, the government is behind time. The overall erase ha run its course. If the department had of fered Its stock when everybody was talking overalls and a few were wear iris; them it might hav cleaned up a handsome profit. Opposition on one ground or an other to the present excess profits tax is constantly growing both within and outside of congress, so that its radical modification or elimination seems cer tain at th earliest favorable oppor tunity. In practice th tax ha proved unjust and vexatious: It has discour aged economy and promoted waste. That la because, as a tax. it is funda mentally unsound. The excess profits and th income tax constitute a dou ble tax; they take from an individual' income before he gets it and after he gets it Both taxes tome almost wholly out of th investment fund, and this is one of their i lost serious drawbacks. The money that has been taken from a corporation in excess pspfits taxes wnuld In most instances mtve probably been spent in- enlarg- i Ing factories, installing new machin ery, or in otherwise increasing produc tive capacity. Similarly the money taken in income taxes would, beyond what was necessary for personal con sumption, have been Invested, and would have gone to increase produc tive capacity. The evil effects of the two tazes have become more serious ss time has gone on. A penalty has been put upon savins;, the future has been sacrificed to toe present, and now an unhealthy condition results because the normal balance between saving and spending has been dis turbed. In order. to restore-that bal ance, part of the tax burden should now he shifted from savings to expen ditures, not only to cut down over consumption, but to reach persons not J now reached by these taxes. FREIGHT RATES MIST GO CP. The freight and passenger rates of the railways of the United States have been advanced an average of about 81 per cent since pre-war days. The railroads now are asking the interstate commerce commission for an increase in freight rates of nearly an equal amount but vropose to leave passen ger rates where they are. The I. C. C. will hear arguments of the. cpponev.s of the proposed ad vance. In view of the transportation situation in this country and thruout the world, it will be interesting to ob serve what theopposition will offer, "However large additional advances in rates may be made in this country," says the Railway Age, "our people may congratulate themselves that the 1 advances in rates necessitated in the country by the war and government operation will be muph less than those that have been made in many foreign countries." The railways of Great Britain were placed under government control at the beginning of the war and. are still being thua operated. During the war the passenger rates were advanced CO per cent while the freight rates were not advanced at all, and because the increases In expenses greatly exceed ed the increases in rates the govern ment incurred a large deficit. To re duce or wipe out this deficit advances in the freight rates of the British rail ways ranging from it to Il0 per cent were made effective on January 15, 1920. During- December, 1J1, and Janu ary, 120, the Italian railways ad vanced their first elan passenger fares SO per cent, their second class fares SO per cent and their third class fares 60 per cent. Both freight and passenger rates already had been advanced 30 to 45 per cent. The passenger rates of the Frenoh railways, two of which are owned by the government and all of which are being operated under government con trol, were advanced 40 per cent dur ing the war and the freight ratea 30 to IT per cent. Because of the deficits which have continued to be incurred proposals for further' advances have been under consideration. The advances in ratea on the Aus trian railways since pre-war days have been enormous. The increase of SO per cent made in February, 1J20, madq the total increases about ISO per cent. In September, 109, freight and pas senger rates in Belgium had been in creased 40 to 50 per cent since pre war times. Further increases have been made since then but the amount of these increases is not known. In September, 1S1, freight and passenger rates in the Netherlands were advanced 60 per cent. Very much the largest advances re ported in any country have been made in Germany, where practically all the railways are owned and operated, by the government. Repeated advances were made during; the war and still further very great advances have been mad since the signing1 of the armir stie. Th passenger rates now aver age about 700 per cent higher 'than before the war and the freight rates about 100 per cent higher. Large ad vances in rate hav been made in many countries which were remote from th aeaj of hostilities. Chauncsy Depew, who for many year ha been noted as a. story teller, has lost none of hia interest in that particular, even at the age of S. Here is one of his latest: "A college row ing crew wer located at Peekskill en th Hudson while they wer training on th river. Passing up to their homes, they leaped on the terrace of our home and began an active discus sion of th past and present. On of them said: Th past can teach us nothing. My father is over seventy year old and I am twenty-one, but I know more than he does.' My father was sitting; according to custom, in th late afternoon, upon th piasza I smoking hi pipe and reading his newspaper. The young man turned around and said to him, 'Well, old gentleman what do you think of that?" My father replied. "I am think ing what a damn fool your father must be. The Socialists seem to be an un grateful lot, Th chairman of their national convention bitterly denounced President Wilson In a speech last Sat urday. Tet the president. In th view ef many, has done everything he could in the furtherance of Socialism. His efforts in behalf of that cult have been limited only by the laws and the constitution. It probably will be a long time before the Socialists have another so good a friend in the White House as ho has been.

A few days ago seven armed men walked into a little country bank near here, shot and killed an officer of it. locked the rest of the officers and employes into the vault and went away with about thirty thousand dollars in cash and securities. No one even found out what had happened for a quarter of an hour alter they had left. Detectives, policemen, constables on-i ell the other varieties of sleuths are hot on the tracks of the bandits, but have caught nothing- so far except a lot of very vague clues and a great deal ef spec in the newspapers. Three days after the above happen ing, seven armed men went into on of the offices of the Fifth Avenue Bus company In New York, held up thirty men, took two thousand dollars, and escaped without even having .to shoot anyone and without leaving behind so much as a clue. This may or may not have been th sum gang. There is no special reason to suppose it was the same gang. Th's country Is full of gangs and Individuals who make an easy living by robbery and murder. Crimes like the two above narrated have become so com mon that we scarcely realize how com mon they are. Jesse James Outdone. Jesse James, and his brother Frank. won fame by their success as bandits during the generation following the Civil war. We are accustomed to think of the deeds and the times of the James boys as something: romantically criminal. Vet the James boys never did anything more bold than these two robberies, and they" never got away with ai.j thing so easily. They held ud a. number of small county banks in western towns successfully, but they were oiten snot at, and members of their gang were repeatedly wounded. Finally, when they tried to rob the bank in Northfield, Minn., the citizens surrounded them, fired on them with rules and six-shooters, and finally killed all of the kanr but two. Th. James boy had a hard life compared to modern auto bandits, who make our highways unsafe and make even isolated store and bank a more or less hazardous enterprise. We also like to read tales of the wild west, thruout the period from about I860 to 1&0, when the six shooter was supreme in all the great region west of the Mississippi. Many fabulous fiction tales have been con structed about that era, which cause the hair of the unsophisticated to i stand on end, and make the eastern citizen thsnk God that he live in a civilised country. -Tet, aa a matter of fact, excepting where hostile- Indians wer involved, both life and property wer vastly safer in the west of thati day than they are in the east of this day. This you can easily ascertain for yourself if you will read, not th hair-! brained fiction which has been writ ten aDout the early west, but the ac counts of actual experience there. For example, a young Englishman named Bell, in 1S67, accompanied the surveyors who were exploring a route for the Santa Fe railrad across the continent, and afterward wrote a book about it. He passed thru New Mexico during one of its wildest epochs, when there were still a few Indians on the warpath, and when there was abso lutely no effective legal organization. Counties had sheriffs, who were gen erally highly efficient men, and some times a town would have a marshal. But there was no adequate policing, as we understand it today no guar dian of the law walking his beat to prevent you from doing this or that and the courts were an absolute farce. On the other hand, every man went armed. Nobody walked into any place and held up six men, or thirty men, because- he knew that every man had a gun on his person, and that he would not get away without having each and every one of them take a shot at him. Wild West Was Safe. Both life and property were -remarkably safe in those days, when every man went armed and knew how to shoot. There were many shootings and killings, to be sure, but these were generally quarrels between "bad" men. The individual who minded his busi ness was not molested. There is abundant testimony to that effect. Mr. Bell, for example, was never in any danger of his life. The only place in which he was molested In any way was in the center of a United States military post where there were more than thousand soldiers on hand to enforce the law. At this place. Fort Union, his horse was stolen from the stable of an officer. In Trinidad, Colo., a typical western tow, more than half Mexican, having neither courts, nor officers of the law, he reports that both he and his property were perfectly safe. Nobody stole his horse because the good people of Trinidad made a specialty of lynching horse thieves. While he was there, a miner came in from the mountains who had killed his partner about a year before. Meantime he had grown a heavy beard, and he trusted to this disguise and time to have obliterated the mem ory of his crime. But when he went into a saloon and began to drink, the saloon be can to fill up with quiet, determined looking citlzena The miner was very quietly surrounded and disarmed. He was given an in formal trial and hung to a Cottonwood tree Just outside th window of the room where Mr. Bell, the genteel young Knglishman, was sleeping. But the only annoyance Mr. Bell ever suf fered in Trinidad was that of having this corpse for a neighbor. Thus the social conscience was- ac tive and effective in the early west. Now and then a band of robbers was successful for a while, but it was al ways broken up by posses of citizens sooner or later, end nearly every rob ber died a -sudden and violent death before many years. Most of the long hatd fights in that country were over crimes, like cattle rustling, which had once been legitimate business and were slowly outlawed. After the Civil war. the plains swarmed with un branded cattle, and the rounding up and branding of mavericks was a good and honest business. But soon a few men owned most of the cattle, and they wanted this rustling stopped. The rustlers were a long time in see ing the error of their ways, and this war between the rustler and the capi-taliat-csttleman was the cause of much of the fighting. It was a war. with men on each side who believed they wer right. Tour Protector, the. Cop. The fact Is indisputable that in the early west, despite the sparsely settled character of the country, despite th lack of any adequate legal machinery, life, property and personal liberty were remarkably safe. And" the fact is equally indisputable that in the east today, in heavily populated sections having the tnost elaborate system of laws and law enforcement in the world, life and property are both often taken with impunity, while per sonal liberty is becoming a myth. The policeman may not catch th bank robber, and often doe not, but if he sees you- kiss your girl, or park your car more than five inches from the curb, or walk on a grass plot, or vio late any other local ordinance, or even his own sense of propriety, he will pounce on you quickly enough. It is against the law to bear arms, and the custom has died out every where in the United States except in Texas, and a few other parts of the south and west. If a man. wants to shoot you down and take your bank roll, you are helpless. It is against the law for you to have any means of defending yourself. You have placed your safety in th hands of a minion of the law who In all probability can not shoot straight enough to hit a barrel at ten feet, and who is most likely at that moment engaged in the bold enterprise of ousting a spooning couple from a park bench.

The dajs slipped by, even tho at times they seemed insufferably long. Betty and Jane declared I made work for myself purposely to keep busy. They were right. I often fussed over things, even did them over unneces sarily, so that I wouldn't have too much time to think. I spent some time with Jane and Betty, occasionally taking lunch with them, or they with me. rffe decided to take up the study of history his tory of the world. Jane proposed it. "One would know you were an ex school ma'am," Betty teased, "no one else would have thought of such a subject." "Don't you think it necessary? The war has changed everything. We will familiarize ourselves perfectly with conditions as they were, then as the reconstruction is finished and new history is made, we will be ready for that." "Hear! hear!" Betty cried. "Why. Jane. Ions a I hare known you, I never appreciated you as I do new. Talk of pearls of wisdom, your lips are fairly dripping with them." "I think it will be fine, Jane," I told her. "Don't pay any attention to Betty. Perhaps Mary will join us after she is married. Of course she couldn't while she is in the shop." "That would be fine! Say. girls, have you forgotten she is to be mar ried in a month? We must think what to give her." There followed an animated dis cussion of suitable, gifts for Mary and Gardner. We all loved Mary, and wanted to give her something nice, altho she needed, or would need gifts less than any of us. Gardner be ing far better off than any of the boys. "You see her having things doesn't seem to make any difference. We lov her so much. I am so glad she is to have such a nice home and Gardner is a peach," Betty remarked. "I tell you what, girle!

Marjory Cowlcs read thru the letter twice with businesslike precision.: My Dear Nephew: "I was interested in your state ment of the assets and liabilities of your business of the moment. But I do not forget that you have been enthusiastic over various other en terprises. When you give any evi dence of settling down, by getting married, for instance, I shall be more convinced of your seriousness, and be glad tc help you. By the way. if you are married, let me know. I might alter the case. Your affectionate uncle, "JAMES B. CHASE'." "I'm sorry, Mr. Merrill," she said, then added with a sigh, 'Tf only he could have seen his way to making the loan, it would have meant such a lot!" "A lot!" echoed Phillip. Why. it would mean all the difference between pulling thru or going under!" Marjory Cowles had been associated with the Goodfit Tire company since its incipiency, and had been thru so many of its up and downs that she had acquired some of the privileges of a partner without, its responsibili ties. Now she pondered the situation with half-closed eyes, and pencil tap ping her firm red lips. "There there isn't anyone you would want to marry on short no tice?" She hoped her employer didn't hear the beating of her treacherous heart as she waited for the answer she had been longing to know ever since her discovery that Phillip naa the most attractive blue eyes of any man she had ever seen. "Indeed there isn't!" declared Phil lip, so emphatically that her heart beat raster than ever. Marjory was about to remark that his uncle was evidently eccentric, when Phillip gave a positive shout. I have it! Ana he deserves it lor being so peculiar and tight-fisted. Please take this letter." And he was dictating before she had picked up her pad and pencil. "Dear Uncle James lou want to know if I am married. Well, am I? I wish you could see my wife (that's true enough, Miss Cowles. I -wish he could, and tell me what she's like.) If you will reconsider the making of that loan I assure you you will never regret it. Yours, I'PHILLIP. "P. S. If the wife knew I was writing this I feel sure she would send her love." "I am going out for lunch now. Get that letter off as soon as possible. please." And Bhillip took down his coat and hat and went out. Left alone. Marjorie sat for a mo ment-idly wondering how the affair would turn, out, and absent-mindedly testing one of her pencils with scrib blings on a sheet of typewriter paper lying on the desk. Then she rose. straightened things out and took from the drawer the few sandwiches ano an apple which made up her midday meal, after which she got down to the business of getting oft that letter in time for the mail. Three weeks later Phillip sat at his desk figuring the extent of his smash- up about to occur and wondering way he had not heard from his uncle. when he was Interrupted by the Jangle of the telephone bell. "You take it. Miss cowles," he said morosely. Marjory took down the receiver. then almost dropped it. "His Uncle James? I'll I'll tell him." But there was no need. Phillip had risen and stood as one petrified. His Uncle James come all these miles to investigate the business! That meant almost surely that he would loan the money. Joyfully he took the receiver from Marjory's hand, not observing me she wanted it rose. I wonder If there ever lived a girl who didn't plan to have a rose room when she eduld afford if?" "Tl-at will be crept! You'l! havs to design everything, Cerry, then Jane and I will sew." I bad no idle time In tlin next few weeks, 'r-vcry romert I could spar. from housework and Robert, was given to Mary's wedding present. T!ere were two windows In her room. We made ruffled muslin curtains, then tbe rose cretonne over-draperies. We made the bed and bolster cover of the same, with a lovely ruffled muslin over cover, in the center of which Betly had embroidered Mary's mono gram. Then we made covers for dressing table and bureau, leaving one end unfinished so that we could easily alter them to fit any size. We had some of the cretonne leit. and made odd shaped pillows that we knew would pledse Mary, and which could be used in many ways- "PerhaDS she'll have a day bed." Betty said. "They would be lovely j j on one" The boys had been taken into the secret and highly approved. "WilV it be enough for us to do for her?" It was Carson Murphy who asked. "Indeed it will. Carson." I told him. "We have kept account of everything, and you three boys are to pay the bills. Mary knows well enough it is all we can afford more, perhaps than we should. She will be delighted I am sure. We have made her every single thing she will need in her room, even to a pin cushion and hair pin tray. She couldn't have it done at a decorator's for 10 times what It has cost, and it would be done no better." 'Thanks to your artistic wife." Jane broke in. "turning to Robert. We were all at Jane's for the evening, and had taken our gifts, now finished, out into the dining room to show the boys.

"On-er-er-yes. yes, very well, very well, very, -very well." "Yes-yes." "Of course-er, we'd ask you to stay with us, but we've only-two rooms." "Yes, two rooms, but there s an ex cellent little family hotel near. We'll put you up there." "All right. Yes, come right up." Philip turned from the telephone with so woebegone an expression that Marjorle's heart melted within her. "My uncle is coming up. will be here any moment and how th deuce can I produce a wife in that -time? Phillip paused with the despair of one whose game is up. Then, "I say. Miss Cowles. you wouldn'toh, it's a crazy scheme but would you consider being my wife Marjorly couldn't resist. "This is so sudden!" she said quite soberly, then didn't know whether to be more chagrined or amused at the look, of alarm on Phillip's face. "Oh, I didn't mean really that is oh. Just pretend you're er my wife, while Uncle James is here this morn ing. After that I'll undeceive him. But if he'd only go over the works firct and see what a first-rate propo sition it ia he'll forget this wife busi ness and loan the wherewithal." Marjory debated within herself. Playing the part of a make believe wi'e to the man you're in love with might have its tragic moments. But, because she was in love with him. "All right." she said at last,' "for the sake of the business. I will." "You'r a brick, Miss Cowles!" he grasped her hands gratefully. Then, as the color mounted slowly in his cheeks, "He'll think I'm a darned lucky dog!" he added- It waa the first personal note that had ever crept into their conversation. Half an hour later Uncle James arrived a tall Individual with keen, snapping eyes. He greeted his nephew affectionately, then turned to the girl as Phillip said, a little awkwardly. "My er wife. She is putting her shoulder to the wheel, too, for a while." The difficult moment was past and Uncle James was launched in de scriptions of his trip east. As he rose to go after steadily refusing to talk business, Uncle James uttered the fatal words that lengthened indefintely the conspirator's plans of an hour. "I'm glad you did so well. Phillip, because I'd made up my mlnd, if your wife wa one of these extravagant creatures wearing her husband' earn ings on her back, I'd hav nothing to do with your business, no matter how promising. But before w discuss that I intend te see the whole of New York and the two of you must be my guests." As he went out, th two young peo ple looked at each other. Then. "Stick by me a while longer," begged PhHlip miserably, and Marjory con sented. Followed busy evenings of theaters; automobile rides up the Hudson, din ners. When they wer riding Uncle James usually insisted on occupying the front seat with the chauffeur. "Even old married people like to sit by themselves and talk," he said in dulgently. And Marjory, sitting snugly wrapped up at Phillip's side, watching the river, felt sometime that she had stepped intoa dream. While Phillip well. Phillip grew to long for the rifjht to reach out and grasp the slim hand resting beneath- the robea a few inches away. For Marjory, in the hours of com panionship, had shown herself to be a wonderful comrade, eminently de sirable. In wondering how he could afford marriage, if the business failed, he sometimes forgot his feeling of guilt at the deception he was prac ticing on his uncle and his anxiety as to the outcome. Then one day, Uncle James wan dered into the office when Phillip was out. Finding Marjory alone, he hesitated, then sat down in his nephew's chair. "What's my nephew playing the. iooi tor?" ne demanded. "What do you mean?" she asked, trying to speak calmly. "Just this he's no more married than you are! I'll tell you how I know." Reaching Into his packet, he extracted the envelope recognized as the one she had addressed. Out of it he took the letter and turned it over. On the back she saw her handiwork, and a delicate flush stole over her face. "Marjory Cowles Marjory Cowles Merrill Mrs. Phillip Merrill-1 She had picked up that pa per with Its scribblings to typewrit the letter on! "When I saw P. M.. M.

"And now that I have come well, he can have that money on one con ditionthat h makes good his bluff and marries you right away. You suit me down to the, ground as my nephew's wife." Rising, he went slowly out, leaving the girl speechless and indignant. Then tho hot tears welled into her eyes and she buried her face in her arms on the desk. Nor did she hear the door open softly. Suddenly, two strong arms swept her to her feet and field her. close. "I met my uncle downstairs. H said 'my wife" wanted me Try badly Hut it's nothing, Marjory darling, to the way I want my wife.

O middle aged woman, ever meet that person, who is the strangest person In all the world tj you, the girl that you wer when you were sweet-and-twenty, and whom you have left -o far behind you that you can scarcely remember how she looked, or what manner of creature she waa? Sometimes you come upon her pic ture In an old album, and you look at it curiously. How pretty and fresh the face is! How serene and untrou bled! How trustingly the eyes look out upon the world! What a bloom of rose was in those cheeks! What gold was tangled in that hair! How lithe and slim, as a willow wand, that girlish figure! It ia like the portrait of one long dead and half forgotten, and as you look from it to your reflection in a mirror, and see yourself stout and grizzle headed, with tired eyes and with lines of car and suffering on your face,' you can scracely believe that you were ever she. Sometimes the girl you left behind you comes and sits besides your bed in the silent watches of the night, and you marvel at how gay and light hearted she is. Laughter ripples for ever over her lipa and her heart sings with Just the Joy of living. She is sure that this I th bet of all possible worlds, and that her path is going to be strewn with roses with never a thorn among them, and that the sun is always going to shin for her. It has been years and years since you really laughed or thrilled to the ecstacy of being. The path you have trodden has been hard and stony, with few flower blooming along its arid way and your sky has so many more clouds than sunshine that you have learned to be fearfully, forever ex pecting storms. But as an echo of the girl's gay laughter flits back to you you are filled with a furious anger against those who robbed her of her joyous ness, who stifled the song In her heart, and who blotted out the sunshine from her. And as you look Into the? eyes of the girl you left behind you, you see that they are filled with dreams the beautiful romantic dreams of maiden hood that always and, like the fairy tale, with "And so they were married and lived happily ever afterwards." She dreamed of a lover as handsome as a prince, and aa nobl a Sir Gala had, who would find her and claim her for his own.' and that they would go thru th world with his strong arm about her, protecting her from every hardship, and their souls one, in a rap ture of perfect companionship.

Some unfortunate men and women are prone to wonder why some of their friends are blessed with an aounaance of color pink cheeks and red lips while theirs are always colorless. The reason for this last named condition is there is not enough red blood cor puscles in the blood -under a micro scope the blood is thin and watery. The flesh is flabby, too. Well known physicians assert that the regular ad ministration for several months, of three-grain hypo-nuclane tablets will greatly improve the color, add to the weight, make the cheeks pink and the Hps red and in general be very bene ficial.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL MONDAY EVENING, MAY 10, 1920 MRS. COURSEN Was Helpless in Bed Rheumatism. From Says Tanlac Has Completely Rid Her of It, I was down in bed almost helpless from rheumatism when I started tak ing Tanjac but now I haven't an ache or pain of any kind and am enjoying j as rood health as I ever did in my i life was the truly remarkable state ment mad recently by Mrs. P3ula t'oursen of 216 West Hidepark street, St, Joseph, Mo., In a conversation with a Tanlac representative. "It seems almost too good to b true," she continued. "That I am at last free from rheumatism and have thrown away my crutches. And be sides, I have actually gained twenty eight pounds in weight in two months time and I Just can't begin to tell you what a blessing Tanlac has been to me. "My trouble started about two years ago and since then I have certainly had to bear my share of pain and suffering- My back hurt continually and when I would bend over I was simply1 in aennv. Alv Ipsts rminprl me awfullv I and finally I got so bad off I was un- J them the use of the able to walk with out the aid of crutches. My stomach became badly disordered, I lost my appetite and couldn't digest a thing sea rely. Natur ally I began to fall off in weight, and T became extremely weak and nervous. To make a long story short I was a perfect wreck and finally had to give up entirely and take to my bed. I suf fered nearly all the time, was hardly able to move and actually had to be turned over in bed in a sheet- "I had about lost faith in all medi cines for it seemed the more I took the worse I got, but I am certainly thankful that I gave Tanlac a trial. The very first bottle helped me for the pains began to let up and I felt easier and better in every way. By the time I had finished my third bottle I had no more use for my crutches for I was able to walk without them and with out a. pain of any kind. And now I believe the rheumatism has all com pletely left mo for I can't detect a' sign of it and I am feeling as well and strong as I ever did in my life. I have a splendid appetite and my big gain in weight shows how well my food is agreeing with me. I am not the least bit nervous and I sleep fine every night. I am now doing my house-work and I will never get thru praising Tanlac for It has helped me out of bed and put me on my feet in perfect health Tanlac is sold In Topeka by Tully McFariand Drug Co., 835 Kansas Ave., and 729- Kansas Ave. Adv.

The Shawnee county commissioners today announced that the new county home north of the city would be com pleted July 1 and the official opening would be held July 4. The completion of this building will mark the end of lengthy court litiga tion intermingled with much bitter feeling between the Topeka Rotary club and the county commissioners. Tyo years ago members of the To peka Rotary club assisted by the coun ty commissioners began a campaign for a special election to vote $50,000 in bonds for the erection of a hospital for the poor. As to whether the original plan was for a county home combined with a hospital is still the subject of dispute. The bonds were voted. The county commissioner ordered plans and spe cifications for a county home and hos pital to be erected on the county farm. Suddenly, certain members of the To peka Rotary club began criticising the action, claiming that the bonds were voted for the purpose of erecting county hospital and that a county home should be a separate institution. The case went to the supreme court, where an injunction was issued against the county commissioners denying 0.000 in the building of a county home, The county commissioners, however, con tinued with their work on the home independent of the $50,000 bond issue, manipulating funds in such a manner that sufficient cash was obtained to erect a county home, much similar to the original plans and specifications for the combined home and hospital At the same time the commissioners asked for plans and specifications for a county hospital exclusively as per demand of the Rotary club. The com missioners announced today that the plans and specifications of the hos pital were ready. '"Now," said a member of the board of commissioners, today, "we must rub Aladdin's lamp or something and buy lots near the city cheap and build a 150.000 building which under the pre vailing high prices of material and labor should cost double that amount. Such a structure would have been possible two years ago, but at the present time a miracle or somethii g must happen to give the people who demanded a separate county hospital what they wanted at the time ma terials and labor wr--e cheaper and $50,000 would fill the order."

The Moroccan Veil Has Been Brought Into Common I'sage for Motoring After Jt Was launched bv French Women Who Made the London to Paris Trip In the Air. It did'not need Mrs. Edith Wharton to write her new book on Morocco and the' French province to bring the clothes of that country into the lime light. Poiret had done it. No doubt Mrs. Wharton's 'vivid de scription of Morocco did much to im press upon our minds the whole col orful picture of that country where France has done so much and ruled so ably. It is said that the moving pic ture men are already in those cities with their camera, their scenery, and their enthusiasm, and this sounds as tho we were to have a swirl of Afri can pictures, of the women of Moroc co, their costumes, the queer streets and the brilliant houses. I, j Well, it is only one more impression of the east. We dance to the tunes of Egypt and Africa, we go to see trag edies laid in Stamboul. we read avia tors' stories of the country over which they flew and into which they fell, we see gowns that have been copied from those worn in African towns. The world has gone mad over the east. Certainly, the source of all this fren zied enthusiasm was the war. Possibly we will begin to live on our house-tops thru the hottest months of our climate if the furore continues. The Veil of Morocco. It may have taken the genius of Poiret to show us how well jwe could look in the ancient fashions that have been indulged in for centuries by wo men whose lives do not touch ours at any point. But all the fashions of the world that we modei-ns wear quite well have been garnered from strange sources and none of them have been worn by women who indulge in our activities or who have our point of view. We are really the heirs of all the ages. the dust from the neck and the shoul ders, as well as the face, and If oie must protect the eyes there is a closed veil put on an elastic and worn directly over the face like a mask. Choose Gray Blue. The Fiench blue or gray, as you like to call it, is a delightful color for travel. It has more loveliness than brown, and while it may absorb dust and' take spots it does not show the presence of either. It would be well for women to remember this fact and choose the color for any garments which they will use for traveling this summer. The vacation days are upon us and all those who are not rushing to Europe will go on seeing America, as they have done since the motor was invented. The invasion of Canada is not a joke; it is considered -with as much solemnity as the winter-invasion of Cuba, Florida, and that Fortunate Isle called Bimini Never have the crooked streets of vjucucv; uecKonea wnn such allure nor have the reaches of the St. Lawrence river made so strong an anneal Th. great northwest, the long adventurous tnp to Banff, even the picturesque streets of Montreal have strangely de veloped a fascination for the vacation ist and for those who have motors, that the Canadians have always preached to th Americans. In the popular term Canda is now called the land of the free and the home of the brave. To it thousands will go as soon as June breaks into blossom and the clothes that are being made for thes.- trips are quite as Im portant as those that were fashioned for Florida and Havana.

It is bui't of grey blue silk, the veil of chiffon in the same dust concealing color. As an excellent example of how we adapt ourselves to whatever fashion is offered us there is the Moroccan veil worn by the young American in a fast going motor car. The veil is admirable and the cap that goes with it is exactly suitable to our present modes of trans portation. The sketch shows' this motor hat which is sponsored by Fifth avenue and will be worn by "the women who are looking eagerly forward to seeing the Pacific coast from a car when the Democratic convention calls its follow ers to California. It will be worn on those gleaming white roads that lead to Maine, to such halcyon spots. In the opinion of those who like to drink when they eat, or otherwise, as Canada offers. Tn other words, it is the motor hat and veil of tne hour. The sketch shows It in French gray Tho Tea Honr. The simple act of serving and drink ing tea is so important a matter in japan mat a good share of the ti spent in educating a vounir arirl i rf voted to that subject; and even in this country every person who takes part jh ffwwi activities 10 any extent must know a few things about the right y tu unnK ana serve tea. We have borrowed our tea-drinking uuiis irom tne ,nguen. it we had taken them from .la no doubt, take it kneeling on the floor and drink it from a handleless cup. If vi e naa got the habit from Russia should find a samovar indispensable, ana we might take it with rum. But so completely do our tea-drinking K-ttiis come irom fingiana, that it is still in some places considered rather an English affectation for business men to provide for the servinsr of tea mi o ciock. However, at certain of- tices In some of the largest cities provision is made rr tea service everv afternoon, and the result has almost always been that more work has been dene, in spite of the fifteen-minute in icrmiKsion. ine reireshment seems to put new energy in the last hour of work. Altho 4 o'clock tea is not an estah li.rhed institution in the homes of the land, it is more and more resorted to among folk who have a late dinner, esi eciany in cool weather. One thing the hostess should re member is,that the lightest of eata Dies go wnn -tea. Arternoon tea is rerved in the living room or drawing room. or. in summer, on the porch or in the garden; in fact, wherever you and your guests happen to be seated, and there is every reason why. the service should be kept simple. Very: thin Dreaa ana outter sandwiches, s. mple, not very sweet, cake, wafers or pos smiy tnm slices or buttered toast are all thnt are in good form with tea. To attempt elaborate French pastries addition, shown foolish lavishness. In serving tea in your own home, when you are not formally receiving, it is usual for you or an older house guest to pour the tea. Nowadays one does not have tea tables provided wi'li tea dishes set up permanently in the living room or drawing room. The tea service is brought from the kitchen or pantry on a large tray and placed on a tea table, or it is wheeled in on a tea wagon. Even tho alcohol tea kettle if one is used is not usually left in the drawing room. New York Stork Market. Wall St.. New York. May 10.

He announces, also. the appointment of Jack Wilson as assistant manager, who will have charge of the house during the hot season. Ordinarily the Novelty opens early in September and closes in June. The Crawfords have decided on a policy of continuing the bills thruout the season. "The old high cost of living has hit vaudeville actors this year and instead of making summer a vacation period, they are working right thru." Wilson said today. "For this reason we will be able to book some of the best acts on the road." Manager Crawford has installed a new cooling system and promises that the house will be "more comfortable than a sleeping porch" this year. One of the features of the summer bill will be a series of William J. Flynn detective stories, filmed. These stories will be pictures depicting real detective work by this widely known sleuth. Each story will be complete during the serial. Jack Wilson, the new assistant manager, is a ''Crawford made" thea ter man. He has been with the Craw ford syndicate in several cities and came to Topeka recently from Chi cago. He is a J'oung man of the variety of personality that wins thea ter patrons. He will continue as assis tant manager after the Novelty season closes and will take charge of the sea son at the Grand beginning next fall under the Crawford management. New York Cotton Mnrket.

The tractor, motor truck, stationary gas engine, and the automobile, all de pendent upon cheap, efficient motor fuel, have multiplied the efficiency of human labor, thereby increasing the acreage a man can handle. In 1919 farmers owned 3,900,465 of the 7,523,664 automotive vehicles registered in the United States.These figures give a fair idea of the use being made of motor vehicles in producing and distributing food products. There is no more prolific food pro ducing area in the world than the territory served, by the Standard Oil Company (Indiana). To serve the farmers of the Middle West is a major part of the Standard Oil Company's business. For that reason the dark, green tank wagon of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is recognized by the farmer as serving an indispensable need in promoting the increase of food products. Thousands of these tank wagons travel contin uously, on schedule, throughout the 11 states of the Middle West, served by this Company. During the busy season, when the farmer needs power most, this Company delivers gaso line even to the tractors in the field. Rain or shine, these wagons are on duty to help make certain that the nation's food supply shall be planted, harvested, an4 delivered on time. To enable the farmer of modest means to utilize automotive machinery in cultivating an increased acreage at a lower cost per acre, the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) strives -constantly to keep down the price of gasoline by increasingly efficient refining methods, and to expand and perfect its comprehensive system of distribution.

SIXTH OF ACREAGE LOST Adverse) Weather .Conditions Cut Wheat Crop Down 1,417,000 Acres. Sixteen per cent -of "the.. Kansas winter acreage has been lost, owing to drouth and late seeding last fall, lack of moisture during the winter and violent wind storms during the early spring, according to the esti mate of the United States department of agriculture. Approximately 7,726, 000 acres of the. 195,000 acres sown last fall are left for harvest. The con dition on May 1 was 80 per. cent -of normal. The possible production was estimated at 92,082,000 bushels.

BIG CROWD AT OIL HEARING WiUard Petroleum Company. Contro versy Comes V'p In Court Today. Judxe James A. McClure's court room was filled today with Topekans financially interested in the Willard Eatroleum company against which Thomas Highfill of Atchison, has filed a suit demanding the appoint ment of a receiver and charging H. G. West, president of the Farmers Na tional bank, and his brother-in-law. M. C. Willard of Chicago, with fail ure to properly diviae tne money among investors. Highfill demands an accounting of all the moneys, the appointment of a receiver and a Judg ment for money which he claims is due him. George McDermott, attorney for West, announced that West and the bank stood ready to account for all money on the basis of the contract drawn when the holdings of the original SO unit holders were syndi cated. "But we refuse to make an account ing on any promise held out by agents for the company," McDermott said. Fine legal points in the controvery were argued thruout the morning and arguments were resumed- during the afternvon. It is claimed that there were originally 80 un-it holders in 'a lease on a quarter section of land In Marion county. One half of this quarter. Highfill asserts, was drilled and oil found. The other half was syndicated and 1.000 shares were to be sold at $200 each. The original unit holders were given an option of seling in their stocks to the Willard Petroleum company, which was formed, or could have it exchanged for syndicate stock, it was claimed. Highfill asserts that West, who was trustee, and Willard failed to share equally with the stockholders in the distribution of the money. m MRS. WADE POSTER IS GUILTY.

CROP OUTLOOK IMPROVES Mohlcr's Report Says Rains and Sun shine Did Much Good. Crop conditions improved mightily under favorable weather conditions of last week, according to a report today by J. C. Mohler, secretary of the state board of agriculture. Rains and sun shine combined to improve the wheat outlook and corn growers in the cen tral portions of Kansas have planted 50 to 75 per cent of their crop. From one to two inches of rain fell over the greater portion of the state last week. Soil conditions are "quite uniformly hospitable for all crops," with possibly a bit too much moisTure in the northeastern sections. Cold weather has held back the potato crop. All other crops are seemingly making good progress. Mohler in his weekly report says in part: Wheat has improved wonderfully during the past week and is making a very rapid growth. It is reported as jointing In the north-central section and is from six to eight inches bigb in the southwestern part. In the extreme southwest there is some danger of weeds giving trouble unleBS cool weather continues a short time. Corn planting is general over the state, having started in the northeastern and north-central sections during the past week. In the central part of the state from r0 to 75 per cent is already planted in the southern section, especially the southeast and south-central, practically all the corn land has been planted. In some parts of this section the corn is showing above ground to fair stands, washing rains hav ing occurred In some places. In the south west the ground Is in good condition now, but on account of dry weather previously, the preparation for planting is somewhat backward. The past week has bees favor able for oats and barley. The planting of the grain sorghums Is starting in the southern half of the state, the preparation of the soli going forward in other parts, A few early fields in the southern part are just coming up. Potatoes are very backward owing to the eoM. wet weather and In the central part of the state there are reports of seed rot ting from this cause. Thru the Kaw Val ley section the plants are now showing above ground, with fair to good stands. Alfalfa has made an excellent growth the past week and the first catting of bay will start in the south-central section in about a week, further north In ten days or two weeks from now. tirass is making good progress, but many pastures in the eastern section are weedy. Cattle are going on grass in fair con dition, but there is a big decrease in numbers this year compared with last, and pasture rentals are somewhat lower than a year ago. Apples In the northeastern section are in good shape and the spraying of frttit trees Is progress In all sections. County agents report considerable loss In the spring pig crop, especially In the northeastern section caused by the cold wet weather and late snows this spring. IN'VTTATIOX SHOOT HERE MAX 18.

West. CONSIDERED A "DARK HORSE" Kansan Has Opportunities Be fore Chicago Convention. From Barber Chair In 'orth To peka to jGovernor. "If the convention ever gets into a tangle and Henry Allen makes a speech at the right time, the thing which happened in a certain con vention in 196 is a matter not to be mentioned in the same breath with what will happen in Chicago In 1920." That is the tribute which Justice Judson S. West of the Kansas supreme court pays to Governor Allen as a presidential dark horse in a story In the current issue of Collier's. The storv carries an intimate personal touch and is one of the strongest stories written of the Kansas execu tive and presidential possibility. In a clever combination of two stories. Collier's features Governor Al len as a dark horse possibility. A two page split heading is used in a story of General Wood as "Tne race maker." while Governor Allen occu pies the opposite page under the head ing "and a Dark Horse." Edward G. Lowry did the Wood story. Justice West wrote of the Kansas governor. It is an interesting and cleverly told story of Allen's early life from a bar ber chair in North Topeka to Gov ernor Stanley's private secretaryship, memhershiD on the board of charities. a plunge into the wilds of Bull Moose- ism ana election to tne povernorsmp. Good "liocal Color." To the Kansan Justice West's story has the most intimate touch and Is chock full of feature and that stick ing, picturesque stuff which newspa pers call "locaj color." Judge West tells of the late Morton Albaugh's shrewd and cunning organization of the Allen gubernatorial campaign in 1917, the booster meeting in Topeka early in the following year, and the Allen wave which swept the state in the campaign. "Without making a speech, without coming home, simply by doing what Hughes ought to have done some time before, Henry kept still, and an over whelming majority elected him gov ernor of the state," Judge West re cites 'Mort had said many dozens of times that Henry was very emotional. Hundreds of others had said he had not been loyal to the party and thou sands of others still felt that he was liable at any moment to make some sort of a break." Jbstice West recalls the legislature tf 1919 didn't take kindly to the gov ernor's program. They Jostled and juggled and sidetracked his pet bills. It wasn't a well oiled, smoothly func tioning machine that wasin charge of administration affairs. Then the Cool Strike. Then came the coal strike. There was a suspension of business. The well became sick, the sick died, th state shivered and business activity stopped in Its tracks. Here Governor Allen went to the front himself. The generalissimos of the administration stayed at home and toasted their shins around state house radiators heated by coal from the state prison. Gov ernor Allen sought a solution of the employer-employe difficulty. Nothing doing. Then came his famous call for volunteers, the response of 10,000 loyal Kansans and the demonstration to the world "that the public had in terests which labor is bound to re spect." It is all very human and very truly Kansas this story of the gov ernor. Justice West serves notice to the world to keep an eye on Henry Allen in Chicago in June. "If the Republi can convention ever gets into a tangle and Henry Allen makes a speech he warns. Then he adds: "The other thing Is that, out of the fog and heartlessness which enshrouded the country by reason of industrial strikes and strife. Governor Allen is the only man who had the vision, who blazed the way and who set the pace. "What ever his future may be. his achieve ment marks the beginning of the end of Bolshevism.".

Evidence Is ac cumulating that New York, with the biggest delegation in each of the two major national conventions, will work along .divergent lines in the selection of presidential nominees. According to the best available In formation, New York's eighty-eight Republican delegates will play safe and "ride the v-inner" while the state's ninety Democratic representatives will endeavor to throw a few monkey wrenches into the machines of various candidates from the start. The Democratic delegation under the unit rule, obviously will be more amenable to "discipline" than their Republican brethren who may cast their ballots individually. The Demo cratic delegates apparently will be dominated by a strong majority which is determined to do two things: Select an avowedly "wet" or at least "damp" candidate. Oppose President Wilson's leader ship of the party. Are Against McAdoo. It is understood that the present plan is for New York to cast its first ballot for Gov. Alfred E. Smith. Until the recent conference of Democratic delegates in Albany, it was believed the second and subsequent ballots would go to Governor Edwards, of New Jersey. Now, however, It is said 'to be tha intention of state leaders to inaugur ate a boom for Vice President Mar shall on the second ballot, hoping thus to embarrass the candidacy of Wil liam McAdoo and thru him ttrte'pres ent administration. If the Marshall boom does not show the desired strength, the New Yorkers are expected to throw their support to Gov. James Cox, of Ohio. The entire block of Republican dele gates from New York Is scheduled to vote for Nicholas Murray Butler on the first ballot. According to the gen eral understanding, it will continue for him until a definite "break" comes, when it will swing to the candidate who is the obvious choice. GASOLENE KILLS DAN DEI JONS. Speed Fluid a Sure Knockout for the Lawn Pests. Lawrence, Kan.. May 10. -Gasoline Is useful in killing other things than bank accounts via the motoring route. The speed fluid is a sure knockout for that ever-present foe to Kansas lawns the dandelion! Prof. S. J. Hunter of the University of Kansas has called the attention of the city of Lawrence to the tact tnai a small spoonful or two of gasoline poured upon the crown of the dande lion plant will make it curl up and die. clear down to the very tip of its usual twenty feet or so root. According to Professor Hunter, the gasoline method is the best one Known for clearing a lawn of dandelions ss it kills the weed entirely. Merely cut tine off the crown, which is common ly done in attempting to dig the dan delion out, does hot kill the root ex cept that part taken out and the remaining part soon springs into life as a new plant. The gasoline method also has an advantage over the dig ging method in that it does not break the soil and make a landing place for scad carried by the wind from other laws. The rasoline must be applied ol rectly to each plant. The method has heen tried out successfully this season Professor Hunter's lawn where three rations of gasoline were required to clear a space of about 100 square feet that was badly infested.

Shipping legislation during h present session of Congress presents a number of remark able features, the chief of which Is fie noafPartlsan character of the efforts that are now being made for the speedy en actment et laws that will assist la the Cermaneat upbuilding et the merchant marine, Unlike previous years there are no di visions on issues' along party lines. More than dozen bills on shipping have been recommended unanimously by the House Committee on Merchant Marine and Fisheries and have been passed by the House without a vote, according ti parties. The same situation prevails .Senate. Measures imjjr dls Pulling Together for a Permanent Merchant Marine I FOR the first time since the Civil War we have a real merchant marine. This fleet of American-owned ships operated under the American flag cost us $3,000,000,000. Since 1 9 1 7 we have spent as much money building ships as was represented by the value of all the ships in the world before the war. Are we going to keep this great fleet From every quarter the answer to this ques tion is YES. But how 1. Congress is now formulating constructive measures designed to keep the American flag upon the seas. 2. It is evident that these measures should take the form of law BEFOR E Govern ment vessels are sold to private owners, since it is apparent that ships sold in ad vance of pending Congressional action will be sold at a price too low if a strong shipping policy is resolved upon; and too high if America is to remain in a position of weakness on the seas. 3. Congress in 191 5 passed the Seaman's Act to raise the standard of American labor at sea. This act, which has made sea faring an attractive avocation for Ameri cans, has" operated to equalize the cost of operation as between American and foreign vessels. The Seaman's Law, there fore, should remain in force in substan tially its present form. Constructive legisla tion will do for the American ship what this Act has done for the American Seaman. The Committee of American Shipbuilders in a series of advertisements will place before the public their views of the more important phases of the situation. In this way the Committee hopes to assist in bringing about a right solution of questions vital to the future prosperity of shipbuilding, but equally vital to the safety and prosperity of. the nation.

DUTHIE, pilllllllllNIHIIIIIIIIIlllillSIIIIliiilllllillH AMERICA is a land of protest. It was born in protest beginning at Boston several years ago when there was a quantity of Tea dumped into the green waters of the harbor. It is a way people have, of translating intolerable conditions or odious laws. We have it as a National characteristic, and it is not surprising that out of the World War there should come an indus trial condition upon which is based a well-defined and energetic dissent. No phase of our economic life has escaped. In the Clothing trade, the Old Suit Societies and Overall Clubs are the more recent forms of protest, and while they afford no economic pan acea, they at least give expression in crude form to the people's criticism not alone of Clothing prices, but seemingly unwarranted high prices of food, fuel and everything else. As distributors of Ready-Made Clothing-, we are passing the voice of Protest from the People to the Manufacturer, and if we get the translation right, it means that the People will not absorb any more high prices. The Manufacturer is not to blame, let us say. He is at the mercy of the Woolen Manufacturer one of whom last year confessed to having made $15,000,000. He is paying the Woolen Manufacturer an advance of at least 400 per cent in price. Labor is also receiving wages approximately 400 per cent greater than before the war. When the Clothing manufacturer says to the two elements enumerated above, as follows: "The people will not buy Clothing at present prices, and we will not buy your cloth at an' advance price, nor grant further increase in costs," then and not until then, will there be lower prices in Clothing. As retailers, we are taking this form of telling the Manu facturer what the people think. We are going to take no profit on Men's Clothing from May 7th to May 30th, inclusive. If you believe in us, arid that we are going to do as we say we are, we solicit your business on that basis. But do not buy Cloth ing unless you need it. Wear the old suit a little longer, if it will stand. This is our approximation scale of prices, and the terms: Every transaction must be for cash. No charge will be made for alterations. Every Suit in the store will be offered for sale, except Palm Beach, Mohair and Sum mer Clothing. $25.00 Suits at $19.75 $30.00 Suits at $24.75 $35.00 Suits at.. $28.75 $40.00 Suits at $31.75 $42.00 Suits at $32.75 $45.00 Suits at $36.75 $50.00 Suits at $39.75 $55.00 Suits at $43.75 $58.00 Suits at $45.75 $60.00 Suits at $48.75 $62.00 Suits at $49.75 $65.00 Suits at $53.75 $68.00 Suits at $55.75 $70.00 Suits at $58.75 $72.00 Suits. at. $59.75 $75.00 Suits at $63.75 $80.00 Suits at $65.75 1 J IN J 1 701-703 Kansas Avenue H Clothiers to Father and the Boys iili.!i!i!iiUilH!IiniliM 3l
