The Evening Newspaper of Kansas J HOME EDITION TOPEKA, KANSAS, TUESDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 7, 1920 TEN PAGES FOUR CENTS SENATE PROBE NOT HUNTING BEST E Democratic Manager on Wit ness Stand In Accusation. Could Get First-Hand Proof of Gorernor Cox Charges. WILLING TO FURNISH "LEADS" Up to Committee to Call G. 0. P. 3Ien Who Know. Names Republican "Regional Directors" of "Slush Fund." Chicago. Sept. 7. The senate com mittee investigating Governor Cox's "slush fund" charges, is "not seeking the best evidence it could get." E. H. Moore, Cox's personal representative, charged today on the -witness stand before the committee. Moore said the committee could get the first hand evidence from many men proving his charge that the Re publicans "were perpared to raise a fund, not of J 1 5,000,000 but J16.000 000," while his evidence would be second hand. With considerable heat, Moore told the committee that if it wanted evi dence it should call the men "who are in the confidence of the Republican leaders; I am not." At Governor Cox's Request. Moore said he came to Chicago at Governor Cox's request to furnish "leads" to the committee. "Has Governor Cox any evidence In addition to what you bring?" asked Senator' Kenyon. "I don't know, but I think not," said Moore. "I will give you the evi dence to show that before last Jan uary a plan was perfected by the Republicans to raise $16.000. 000. In pursuance of that plan a ways and means committee was formed, headed by Col. "William Boyce Thompson." Moore was interrupted and asked to tell specifically about Cox's charges that $600,000 was raise din Ohio, "in the twinkling of an eye." He said Fred Miller, Columbus, had charge of fund raising in Ohio. Ways and means committees named in cities and counties were largely "scenery," Moore said. The real work, he de. clared, was done by paid money rais ers under direction of Harry H. Blair, assistant treasurer of the Republican national committee. Moore Gives Names. Moore named C. W. Lee and Henry E. Owens, Chicago, as two of seven "regional directors" he said were in charge of the professional money raisers. John Kelly. Ohio, and Carl Fritsche,; Michigan, and Charles K. Mavitz. West Virginia, were "state directors" of Blair's organization, getting large sal aries. Mnore testified. "To the public these men are camouflaged as executive secretaries of state ways and means committee," he testified. "In addition there was a field force of 'moppers up' who got the 'crip ples' on the prospect list." A. A. Protzman, Cleveland, and Ed ward Silver. Youngstown. Ohio, were namer by Moore as "moppers up." Started Last Winter. Ways and means committees, Moore eaid, "under Thompson began to func tion last winter and raised a large amount prior to the Republican con vention in June." Chester C. Hamlin, Colorado Springs, alone raised $103, 000 prior to the convention, he de clared. "Have you evidence of that?" asked Kenyon. "I'm very positive he did it," said Moore. The Republicans got around the $1,000 limit in contributions by accept ing $1,000 before the convention and another $1,000 from the same contrib utors after the convention, Moore claimed. Kenyon asked Moore to name wit nesses who can tell about Ohio. Moore named John Kirhy, Dayton: C. H. Booth. Youngstown; George M. Jones. Toledo; Frank Knaus. Portsmouth; W. K. Woodford and Dudley S. Blos som. Cleveland; and Kelly, who said he was "state director." Eioeeded City Quota. Moore said Portsmouth's quota was J8.800 but $13,800 was raised. "The $8,800 was raised in twenty four hours." he said, "and at a later meeting $5,000 more was raised." Quotas for Ohio cities. Moore said, were: Cleveland. $400,000; Cincinnati. $260,000; Youngstown. $?0.000; Ak ron, $80,000; Dayton. J50.000; Toledo, $100.00; Canton. $40,000. In Lima, $15,000 was raised. Moore testified. He promised to prepare for the com mittee an additional list of Ohio mon ey raisers. Kenyon asked about Cox's charge that many contributors were in favor of using the bayonet in labor troubles. "Nearly every big contributor in Youngstown is connected with some steel company." said Moore. "I don't know whether they gave because they wanted to use the bayonet or not. but that they- have used the bayonet in in dustrial1 disputes in the past." Refuses "Bayonet" Names. Kenyon demanded Moore name the men who Governor Cox charged gave to the G. O. P. because they wanted the bayonet used against strikers. Moore declined and Kenyon insisted. "I'll name them if you force me to," eaid Moore, "but I don't want to." Moore proved a troublesome wit ness. He constantly made suggestions that irritated the Republicans and paid no attention to their constant re bukes. Moore took the position that he should not be required to present proof of the charges Cox made and which he repeated. After a search thru a great mass of papers. Moore said Frank Downing was the man who raised Lima's $15,000. "He raised it at the Lima club." he testified. Moore offered in support of his (Cautioned on Page Tw FORECAST FOR KANSAS I'nKettled with nhewfri tonight and probably eaat portion Wednesday; not much chance in temperature. SHOWERS STILL ON MAP.

TO FREE KIM IF-- Lloyd George Ready to Bargain for Cork Mayor's Life. Premier TVants Guarantees of "o More Killings. London, Sept. 7. As Lord Mayor MacSwiney lay in a comatose condi tion in Brixton prison on the twenty sixth flay of his hunger strike, Irish sympathizers awaited official con firmation of the report that Premier Lloyd George had proposed terms for his release. The Liege correspondent of the Daily Mail reported the premier en route from Lucerne to London, said he would be willing to release Mac Swiney if guarantees were given that murders of policemen in Ireland by Sinn Feiners would cease. The latest word from the lord mayor's bedside was that he was "very low." s London newspapers gave consid erable editorial space, to comment on the MacSwiney case today, differing widely in their attitude. The Post declared it did not believe MacSwiney's death would make the situation in Ireland worse. The Daily News insisted that the majority of the British people desire the lord mayor's release, and asserted that "the callous plea that MacSwiney is committing suicide recoils upon Its authors," concluding that "every civi lized government is absolutely 'respon sible for the lives of men in its custody." Prison Doctor Threatened. Dublin, Sept. 7. The acting medical officer at Cork prison, it is officially announced, received today a letter signed "One of the first brigade of the Irish Republican army" ordering him to leave the jail forthwith, and the country within twenty-four hours, as his professional attendance on the hunger strikers "gives a tinge of legal ity to the slow murder perpetrated upon them." In the accompanying statement from Dublin castle, the government emphasizes its sole responsibility, and says that the doctor had recommended the release of the prisoners on medical grounds, which the government could not accept and that the doctor's re sponsibility was confined solely to medical measures. FEAR MORE MOB VIOLENCE. Brooklyn Street Car Men Prepare to Fight Strikebreakers. New Yerk, Sept. 7. Further vio lence in the Brooklyn Traction strike j was feared today. Following the statement or Receiver Linilley M. Gar rison, head of the system, that he would not deal with the strikers thru Amalgamated Association of Street and Electric Railway Employes, strike leaders believed the affair was develp ing into an endurance contest. L'ntil yesterday little effort had been made to interfere with the running of cars by strikebreakers. Yesterday afternoon, however, a car was at tacked by strikers near Prospect park and a riot followed in which one striker was shot in the hip, many persons injured by stones, more than thirty shots fired and thirteen strikers arrested on a charge of rioting. Crowd Didn't Have to Wait Long For End The prize fight fans who blocked Kansas avenue in front of The State Journal building Monday afternoon to get the returns from the Dempsey Miske fight did not have to wait long for the K. O. For more than an hour before the preliminaries were completed the crowd gathered. C. O. Ansel, auc tioneer, was perched in a second story window awaiting the flash of the open ing round. A few minutes after he had yelled the details of each blow to the crowd, the ssecond round was ready, coming over the Associated Press wires to The Stats Journal build ing direct from the arena. In the sec ond round Miske was down for a count of five and the crowd awaited expectantly for the third. Before the third round was one-third completed the flash "Dempsey Wins: came and lit was given to the crowd within a few i 'seconds after the champion sent the challenger sprawling to the floor. The crowd didn't wait for the de j tails. It sent up a feeble cheer and jbroke up.

Swears Out Warrant and Pays the Ten Dollar Fine. THREW DICE IN A GARAGE J. F. Taber Conducted His Own Raid Last Sunday. Says Army Life Has Aroused Gambling Spirit. J. F. Taber, of Willard, drove to To peka in a motor car today with his son, Carl, aged 18 years, and took the I young man to the office of Tlnkham Veale, assistant county attorney. "I want you to issue a warrant charging this boy with gambling," he told Veale. "I'll swear to the com plaint." Veale followed directions and issued the warrant. Then father and son and the somewhat nonplussed Veale marched up to the third floor of the court house and walked Into the court of Topeka. "Now my boy." said the" father, "what do you want to do stand trial or plead guilty and pay a fine?" The boy studied a moment. Then he said: "I'll plead guilty." The judge fined him $10 and costs which the boy paid. Then father and son walked out of the court house, jumped into the car and drove home to W'illard. Shot Craps In Garage. "I am in the garage business at Wil lard," the father said. "There are a bunch of boys who have been shooting craps in the garage and other places. My boy works in the garage. The gambling became town talk. It hurt my business and Injured the reputa tion of my family. "I warned the boy time and again to stop gambling. But he didn't stop. On Sunday afternoon I saw the boys go down toward the railroad station. "I followed. There they were bend ing over a pair of dice. 'Son, you come with me. I said. He did. The other boys scattered." Continuing, Taber said that the gambling spirit which seems to have taken hold of the youth of Willard since the boys returned from the army was creating much trouble. Other Parents Aroused. "There are other parents who will take the same methods to put an end yot this gambling business on the part of their boys." said Taber. Taber also swore to a warrant charging Ray Marrseil with gambling. "He is the 'root' of the evil,", said Taber. "All he does apparently is to gamble." The warrant must be served: on Mansell. He didn't accompany Taber and his son to Topeka. The warrant issued by Taber. the father, for his son's arrest follows: "I, J. F. Tnher, do charge Csrl Taber and Ray Mansell bet money upon the result of throwing dice; each of the aald Carl Taber ana Kay Mansell then and there throwing said dice and bet ting on the result of the movement of the same." KING C0NSTANT1NE IS ROUSED Attempt by Greek Government to Have Him Expelled From Retreat. Geneva, Sept. 7. Official request jfor the expulsion of former King Con. istantine from Switzerland has not yet j been received from Athens by the j Swiss government, according to in formation received from Berne. Re I ports that such a request had been for- warded to Berne were received late I last week. Constantine, who is staying at Lu cerne, denounces the attempt by the present Greek government to have him expelled from Switzerland in a tele gram to the Associated Press. "As I told you when I had the pleas ure of seeing you," the king wired, "I had nothing to do with the murderous assault upon Premier Venizelos In Paris on August 2. If the Greek gov ernment should demand my expulsion from Switzerland, it will not be the first intrigue against me, nor the first lattack upon my dignity. My enemies i now spread false rumors without pro jducing any evidence against me." CLOSE BRIDGE WEDNESDAY. City to Make Another Attempt to Complete Repairs. Melan bridge, across the Kaw river on Kansas avenue, will be closed again at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning to re sume the repair work if the weather permits, W. S. Hancock, street com missioner, said today. It was originally planned to close the bridge this morning but the action was postponed for two reasons: First, the threatening weather and second, to allow wholesale merchants to load and unload cars which have stood since Saturday afternoon. If the weather permits it is prob able that the resurfacing of the bridge floor can be accomplished by Wednes day evening so the bridge can be opened to traffic again Thursday.

The switch will be built be tween the parking and the sidewalk on the south side of the street. Seeds of War In League. T. R. Kansas City. Mo., Sept. 7. The seeds of war are in the League of Nations. Lieutenant Colonel Roosevelt told Republicans here Labor Day. opening their campaign. He further described the covenant as a "death trap." Germans Starving, Says Topeka Woman Just Back Visit to the Fatherland i She States That Germany Is Ready to Go to War With Russia Against Poland Each Man Must Give 20 of Wages to Help National Debt Eggs, $1.20 Each. That Germany may go to war with i Russia against the Poles, particularly if the allies go to the assistance of Po land, is the belief of Mrs. A. A. Schmidt, 309 West Tenth street, To peka, who has Just returned from Ger many, where she spent three months. "The Germans feel that they are dying slowly from lack of food and cannot face the winter without fuel, and driven to desperation, they will fight," Mrs. Schmidt said today- "They feel that they would rather die fight ing than die from starvation or cold." Airs. Schmidt, who was born in Ger many, and has a brother and nephew living near Munich, visited In various parts of the country, in the Rhineland and in Holland and found the poor liv ing conditions and the talk over the possibility of going to war much the same everywhere. "Of course it may be only talk," Mrs. Schmidt said. "But I should not be surprised if Germany would join Russia at any time. When I left there the talk was that Germany would be fighting again in two weeks." Serious Living Conditions. Food, clothing and coal are distrib uted by the German government to the people in very scarce rations. Each persons is allowed only three pounds of bread black bread made from poor quality rye three pounds of potatoes and a half pound of meat for a week. Adults are allowed only one-eighth of a quart of milk a week and children one pint. "In Munich the people go without meat for two weeks at a time," Mrs. Schmidt said. Coal Shortage. "Factories in Germany are closing now because of the shortage of coal to use in them," she said. "Twenty per cent of every man's wages i( taken for government use to pay the coun try's debt." she said. "Taxes are de ducted from the man's pay before he receives it, also any hospital bills he may have had." Kindly Toward America. "Many Germans I talked to feel that Germany has not received fair treat ment. They think they have agreed to all the "fourteen points' but have not been treated according to the rules laid down in the fourteen points," Mrs. Schmidt explained. "They feel kindly toward America, however. Their Idea is that America went to war to save the money she had loaned to tne allies. They think if America's money had been loaned to Germany, the Ameri cans would have fought with "Ger many. "The American soldiers patrolling the Rhine treat the Germans much better than, do the other soldier guards." Mrs. Schmidt said. "There are African. English, Belgian and French guards, as well as American. American Safe In Germany. "Any American is safe in Germany," she said. "How do the Germans feel toward the ex-kaiser?" she ws asked. "I heard no sympathy expressed for SUE INTERNATIONAL HARVESTER Department of Justice Flan Action Under Anti-Trust laws. Washington, Sept. 7.

No farmer dares butcher hogs for his own use. Took Two Hams Across. "I took two hams with me to Ger many two hams that would last the average American family not more than two weeks at the most," she said. "But the two hams lasted my brother and his family about three months. They would eat only a very little ham at a time .not more than a bite." The clothing shortage In Germany is alarming, according to Mrs. Schmidt. Clothing of Paper. "No one but the very rich can af ford to buy cotton or woolen cloth ing," she said. "They are making clothing from a kind of paper fabric made of smart weeds. They cook and eat the part of the weeds they do not use for clothing." Asked about the civil war in Ger many and the prospect of another out break of the revolutionary forces, Mrs. Schmidt said: "The German government cannot defend itself if the Reds attack again. All the ammunition left at the end of the war was either given to the allies or destroyed. Manyof the men of the government party feel that they would rather Join Russia in her fighting than to face internal war without any pro jection." Mrs. Schmidt fs a naturalised Amer icas and has lived In Topeka for thirty-six years, coming directly here from Germany. Her husband. A. L.

McAuliffe declared that this meet ing was not under the control of any farm organization, but of all of the farmers, and that the time had arrived when wheat, the farmers' product. must be taken out of the hands of the speculators and sold direct to the con- sumers. He accused the big specula- tors of being the cause of all of the trouble, the small price of wheat and the high price of foodstuffs from "Mnst nein Rarh other.

Investigation of alleged gambling on baseball games here was ordered today by the state's attorney's office and by Chief Justice McDonald of the criminal court in in structing the September grand Jury. The investigation was ordered follow ing allegations made last week that large sums were bet on the Cub-Philly game here Tuesday and claims that the game was "fixed." Chief Justice McDonald In ordering the jury probe, said baseball had al ways been a clean sport and under state gambling laws, the court would do all possible to maintain its chastity. McDonald's instructions demanded a general wide sweeping probe into betting on baseball and baseball lot teries. "Baseball ls our national sport," said McDonald. "It has become a part of every day life and every lover of clean sport in the country." McDonald then specified the charges that players on the Cub team were "fixed" to let the Phillies win on Au gust 1. If the charges are true, every one implicated should be brought toioosteritv tho task of finding food speedy Justice and exposed to public scorn." he said.

Industrially and politically. Warren G. Harding declared in a speech at the Minnesota State Fair here today. "We are then the guarantors of our own security," he added. Agriculture is menaced by evils which demand, not quack remedies, but careful study and proper action, the Republican nominee continued. "Unless we deal more fairly." he warned, "there may come a conflict between the organized farmers in tha surplus producing states and those who insist on buying their crops be low production costs. Need Fewer Land Hogs. "We need fewer land hogs who menace our future and more fat hogs for !:am and bacon." Harding said. "We need loss begullement in cultivat ing a quadrennial crop of votes and more federation for farming as our basic Industry. We need rest and re cuperation for a soil worked out in agitation, and more and better har vests in the inviting fields of mutual understanding." Hardlfcig put seven planks in his ag ricultural platform today farm rep resentation in government; right of farmers to co-operative organization; scientific study and action toward sta bilising prices of farm products; ces sation of attempts at price fixing on foodstuffs; expansion of th federal farm loan act to aid farmers in the purchase ef land; most efficient trans portation possible; revision of the tar iff to protect the American farmer. First Speech Outside Ohio. Harding's speech today was the first outside Ohio since he became presi dential candidate, altho induced to come to Minnesota partly because of the political situation here, Harding made no reference to it, or to the farmers' Nonpartisan League action here. His speech was without direct reference to partisan politics, altho he scored the treatment accorded the farmer in the last seven years. The government should do every thing possible toward restoring a bal ance between livestock and grain pro duction to encourage a return to di- versified farming, Harding asserted. America must decide whether the United States shall be a self sustain ing nation or continue to exploit agricultural resources and leave to enough "by strong arm methods If j necessary" to feed the coming hun- dreds of millions, he declared, Farmer Only Needs Free Hands, ..j have no tnousht ot suggesting that tne government should work out jan elaborate ystem of agriculture and .hen t to itnpcme ,t OII the farmers 'of the country." Harding continued. "That would be utterly repugnant to American Ideals. Government pater- nalism. whether applied to agriculture or any other of our great national industries, would stifle ambition, im pair efficiency, lessen production and make us a nation of dependent in competents. The farmer requires no special favors at. the hands of the gov ernment. All he needs Is a fair chance and such Just consideration for agri culture as we onght to give to a baste I Industry and ever ek to promote for acknowledged the tosses Jhey have suffered therefrom, and P'add f or the "onward road" again.

Government offi cials will open negotiations with the general industrial conference at Milan on Thursday with a view of solving the problem presented by the seizure by workers of metal factories thruout Italy. The socialist group in the Italian parliament will hold a meeting with the governiiig committee of the gen eral workers' conference on Friday and it is expected that at this gather ing a policy will be adopted by the workers relative to the present anom alous condition of Italian industry. 400 Plants Taken. It is estimated that 400 of the larg est metal works in Italy have been occupied by mechanics and workers, and the movement is still expanding, threatening to extend to the extreme southern end of the peninsula. Elab orate steps have been taken by the government to preserve order during the period when a general offensive against all industries is threatened. Manufacturers declare that the wage increase demanded by the 600, 000 metal works, employed by them, would add at least one million lire to their payroll and that this burden could not be sustained. They point out that Italy pays eighteen times the pre-war price for coal while England pays only three times, America only 3.5. France si and even Germany only eleven.

Cse Women as Defense. Strikers in this city believed last night 'that an effort would be made by the police to take possession of some plants that had been occupied by workers. They sounded an alarm with sirens and immediately crowds of women and children rushed to the occupied plants to join .relatives. This, according to the police, appears to in dicate the strikers have agreed, in case o? an attack upon them, to pro tect themselves by the presence of wo men and children. All night armored cars and ar mored cyclists patrolled the streets and machine guns were placed in dominating positions along thorofares. The police were watching every sec tion of the city and were prepared for any eventuality. Executives of the Socialists party adopted a resolution to appeal to all Italian organized labor to proclaim its solidarity with the metal workers. May Adjust Trouble. Despite this action, confidence was expressed in- government circles that the acute situation would soon be ad justed. This resulted from a proposal by Minister of the Treasurer Meda that manufacturers indirectly grant the workers increased wages by or ganizing in each city co-operative stores where food would be sold, at cost. The employes were to discuss the plan in Milan tomorrow. A report was circulated that repre sentatives of the manufacturers meet ing here, informed Labor Minister La- briola that negotiations would not be reopened while tne woricers occupies began his address before several thou the plants. sand persons.

A panel of 200 men was summoned today for selection of a Jury to hear the cases of twenty-four Matewan citizens charged with the killing of seven Baldwin Felts detectives In Matewan'a mine war last June. All prospective Jurymen, witnesses and auditors were searched for arms as they entered the court house. Judge James Dameron. conducting the trial, assured army officials in Williamson his court would not need a military guard. Then he revoked licenses of seventy West Virginians to carry arms, or dered all Williamson visitors to park their pistols at their hotels, and named special deputies to see that the order was enforced. The Matewan battle last June cost the lives of seven detectives and four Matewan citizens. Five Baldwin Felts men are to be tried on Septem ber 20 on charges of killing the citi zens.

DARROW IS BITTER ON COURT Chicago Labor Leader Says Law Will Fill Jails. Dr. Jenkins Said Topeka Unions Were Not Suffering. Union labor "set 'em up" Monday. It was the biggest Labor day cele bration in the history of the city. Labor designed and carried out the highest class entertainment it ever gave Topeka. and footed the bill. To day the laboring men returned to their tasks well satisfied with their work, for there was not a hitch in the pro gram from the time the big parade formed at 9: SO o'clock in the morning until the audience which gathered to hear Dr. Burris Jenkins filed out of the doors of the auditorium late in the evening. Following the parade in the morn ing, the crowds gathered, at Gage park, where the big athletic program started at 2 o'clock.

Darrow expressed no encourage ment of conciliation between capital and labor. The interests of employer and employe, ho raid, are so widely apart that they will never be other than enemies. He said he was not sur prised that thw legislature, being com- poscl largely cf farmers, voted so heavily in favor of the law. It con tains nothing to compel farmers to raise crops, he asserted, but ia de signed only to suppress the laboring man. "But it will only fill the jails faster than the bone dry law emptied them," he declared. "You cannot make men work unless they choose and the con stitution gives them the right to sug gest to their neighbor that they loaf together, if it will better serve their ends in getting higher wages." Topt'ka I'nions Healthy. The Kansas industrial court law was characterised by Dr. Burris A. Jen kins, Kansas City publisher, as "'the newest and latest fad" which "threati ened to strangle the unions," in his Labor Day address at the auditorium last night. Ho. prophesied that the law would not succeed. Almost in tha same breath Doctor Jenkins said: "I don't see "any evidence that To peka unions are suffering from the effects of the court for they all look healthy." More than 8,000 persons heard Doc tor Jenkins's address, which closed the Topeka Labor Day program. Principles emphasised by Doctor Jenkins were respect for private prop erty rights and the prevention of vio lence from any class, altho he said that warfare between capital and la bor would continue forever.

"But the blows between capital and labor mTvb softened by understand in of each other's problems," he said Doctor Jenkins's disapproval of the Russian soviet, plainly expressed, won applause, and he stated that such a plan would never work In America or anywhere.

The farmer has a vital interest in our trade relations with other countries, in the administration of our financial policies, and in many of the larger ac tivities of the government. His in terests must be safeguarded by men who understand hia needs. He must be actually- and practically repre sented.

The parasite in distri bution who preys on both producer and consumer must no longer sap the vitality of his fundamental life. "The Republican party pledges itself to a scientific study of agricultural prices and farm production costs, both at homeVnd abroad, with av iew -to reducing the frequency of abnormal fluctuations here. "We must get a better understand ing of the factors which influence ag ricultural prices, with a view to avoid ing these violent fluctuations and bring about average prices which shall bear a reasonable relation to the cost of production. We do not offer any quack remedies in this matter but we do pledge ourselves to make a thoro study of the disease, find out what causes it, and then apply the remedy which promises a cure. "We promise to- put an end to un necessary price fixing of farm prod ucts and to ill considered efforts arbi trarily to reduce farm product prices. In times of natural crisis, when there is a known scarcity of any necessary product, price control for the purpose of making a fair distribution of the stores on hand may be both necessary and wise. H. C. L- Drives Unwise. "Government lrives against food prices such as we have experienced the past two years are equally vain and useless. hTe ostensible purpose of such drives is to reduce the price the consumer pays for food. "We favor the administration of the farm loan act so as to help men who farm to secure farms of their own, and to give to them long time credit, needed to practice the best method cf diversified farming. "We also favor the authorization of associations to provide the necessary machinery to furnish personal credit to man, whether land owner or tenant, who is hampered for lack of working capital. "We do not longer recognise the right to speculative profit in the op eration of our transportation sys tems, but we are pledged to restore them to the highest state of efficiency as quickly as possible. We must bring about conditions which will give us prompt service at the lowest possible rates. Must Revise Tariff. "We are pledged to revision of the tariff as soon as conditions shall make it necessary for the preservation of the home- market for American labor, American agriculture and. American industry. If we are to build up a self sustaining agriculture here at home, the farmer must be protected from unfair competition from those coun tries where agriculture is still being exploited and where the standards of living on the farms are much lower than here.

'THE TOPElCA DAILY STATE JOURNAI-TUESDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 7, 1920 Why Be Afraid of Good Food? Eat What Yon Like Best But Follow It With a Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablet. When the stomach sours or be comes gassy, with h3artburn. it needs the alkaline effect to o"set the acid condition. Tnis you get from one or two Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. Relief is usually very prompt. The resular use of these tablets after meals gives the stomach and small intestine substantial help to digest food and you will then be bold enoush to eat baked beans, fri?d ecKS, sausage, buckwheat cakes and many other things you thought would make your stomach miserable. Get a 60 cent box of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets at any drug store and you will then eat whate-ver you like and be fortified against the acid, sour stomach due to indigestion or dyspepsia. Only One Thing Now Lacking- Money "I have doctored nine years for stomach and liver trouble and spent thousands of dollars, but instead of becoming cured of these ailments, my bloating and pains and attacks be came worse. I was persuaded .a year ago to take Mayr's Wonderful Remedy and have never suffered since taking the first dose. I wish I had the money back I spent for other medicine." Jt Is a simple, harmless preparation that removes the catarrhal muCus from the intestinal tract and allays the inflam mation which causes practically all stomach, liver and intestinal ailments, including appen-Jicitis. One dose will convince or money refunded. At all druggists. Adv. Seems Almost Too Good To Be True That Tanlac Has Ended Her Six Years of Suffering, Declares Mrs. Ellinger.- "I feel so well and strong now that I can hardly realize how bad off I was before I took Tanlac." declared Mrs. Thnmas Kllinper of 804 South Market street, Wichita, Kansas, re cently. "About six years ago I had a severe spell of typhoid fever and from then until the time I bertan taking Tanlac I was in miserable health. My stom ach was left badly upset and my ap j.etite was so poor that I just couldn't trt my strength or energy back. Many times I felt awful sick at my st' mach and had to stay in bed all day 'My nerves were shattered and it 3uPt :ermcd that I couldn't get any rest niiiht or day, either sitting up or i2i oung m mm, mm an Looks Despite How often you have wished that you could indulge in the strenu ous exercise of out door sports with the vigor and enthusiasm of youth! But the end of the week finds you all in you are tired, listless and lack the energy to go out for a vigorous walk or a round of the links or any other exercise that re quires much physical exer tion. Many a man, even in his middle forties, has a vague feeling that he is "getting old and right at a time when he should be at his very best physically. And he is growing old not in the sense that the years are pressing heavily upon him but in the sense that his vital forces are wasting away faster than Nature re places the worn out tissues.

Jack Dempsey, world's heavyweight cham pion received $55,000 for battering Billv Miske. the St. Paul challenger, to defeat in the third round of their scheduled ten round bout here yester day according to a statement of the recelp.s given out today by Floyd Fitzsimmons, promoter of the contest. The total attendance of the labor day battle was 11,348 and the total receipts were $134,904, including state and war tax. According to the arti-1 cles of the agreement Dempsey was! guaranteed $50,000 with a privilege of 1 accepting Iirty per cent oi me receipts. Miske fought on a straight guarantee of $25,000. After the knockout it was reported that one of Jliske's ribs had been broken by the terrific punch he had received in the second round, but the challenger was examined by two physicians after he reached his train ing camp and they agreed there was no farcture. The spot under Miske's heart still was red and Bore today from the effects of the punch, which. Miske admitted, was the blow that really started him toward defeat. His ribs are bruised and his Jaw is very sore but otherwise he is none the worse from his experience. Dempsey did not bear a mark of the battle. After he had dinner with Promoter Fitzsimmons, and a party of friends last night, he spent the rest of The evening dancing at a summer pa vilion in St. Joseph. He planned to I leave for Chicago late this afternoon land will immediately go east in search of new opponents to conquer. Pro moter Fitzsimmons declared the con I test was a success in every way. "The house was virtually sold out," hp said. "I believe that the few va cant seats that were in the one sec tion were sold in Chicago and that the tickets were held by some of those who were unable to arrive in time, due to an accident on the railroad." Miske was heart broken over his defeat. He left the ring in tears as lie had hoped to stay the limit with Dempsey, as he had done in their two previous engagements. His faiher and wife were ringside spectators. Willim Tilden Is Tennis Champ. New York, Sept. 7.

W U UietUGUrS M. Citx, Beloit, 2; Santa Fe 0. The Beloit leaguers again defeated the Santa Fe team yesterday afternoon at the Western League park by the score of 2 to 0. It was a much better ball game than the one played Sunday by the two teams, altho the result was never in doubt, at least by the scribes who sat in the press box. Tom Blodgett. the lanky Beloit hurler, had the locals completely at his mercy, allowing only three hits and striking out eighteen of the railway men. The southpaw has a nice curve ball and his fast one flew over the plate like the California limited when it's trying to make up lost time. He mixed 'em up and had the locals beat ing themselves by swinging at bad ones. The left hander helped his team by making three hits out of four at tempts; one of them, went for two bases. The Santa Fe team only had two men in the game who saw second base, and none reached- third. D. Wells and L, e?h were the only To peka players that didn't have the buck fever when they stood at the plate facing the" terrible Blodgett. Wells collected two of his team's three hits and fielded in his usual fine manner, unce he knocked down a hard line drive and shot it to second for a fast double Play. Selti jiitched a nice game, but the failure of his team mates to drive in any runs cost him the game. If he pitches again like he did yesterday, the big twirler will turn in many games in the won column. Moses started to umpire but was re moved and Carl Senne, a local con tractor, donned the mask, stepped up behind the plate and called them in big league style. Vesper, the local first sacker, made some nice stops, but failed to connect safely at the plate, one thing that looked bad was the Topeka catcher after having two strikes on the batter and no balls called for a straight one, however it would have made no difference. Cap Wfells made an effort to win in. the ninth; two pinch hitters were sent Zn, but neither one could connect safely; the big boy from Beloit was using too much stuff on the ball. Come agali., ueioit, we like to see a ball team like yours perform. Dr. Allen and K. V. Dr. Forest C. Allen will start his second year on September 15 as ath letic director of Kansas university. He came to Lawrence last year from the Warrensburg Normal school, where he met with great success both as a coach and trainer. The Normals were always contenders In the Missouri con ference for championships, not only in lootDaa and basket tall but also in track and baseball. Dr. Allen is an osteopath and had a large private practice at Warrens burg but the call of his Alma Mater at a time when a real director was needed caused him to give this up and listen to the call of the Crimson and Blue- "Phog" was a star athlete while a student at the Jayhawker school in football and the best basket ball player ever turned out at K. U. He has undertaken a big task this year acting as head coach of football and basket ball in' addition to his other duties as athletic director and handling the business end of the de partment. He will find it a hard proposition to lift Kansas out the rut into which they have fallen. If he can arouse that old spirit of former days then Kansas will be a contender for Missouri .valley conference honors and only then. He has a hard schedule for his foot ball team, a Nebraska, game being on the program makes it imperative that the Crimson and Blue will have to show real fighting spirit If they ex pect to go to Columbia to meet the Tigers with a clean slate for the Thanksgiving game. Doctor Allen Is a fighter from the minute the whistle starts the game until the close of the last quarter. It's possible that "Phog" may be able to instill some of that old-time pep into Us athletes, any way he can t do any worse than Mc carty did with the 1919 squad. Guy C. Omar, a former Kansas Ag gie, will coach Bethany college the coming season. -Omar has coached in different Oklahoma high schools and taught at the Hays normal. Last year he was coach at Kansas University of Commerce and met with great success. He will start practice about the mid dle of September and expects to have "FREEZONE rr Lift Off Corns! No Pain!

New students fin Washburn college and In high school are having; open ing; week made easier for them by the T. M. C. A. and the Y. W. C. A. "big brother" and "big sister" plans. Every new student will have a "big brother" or "bif sister" appointed by the student T. M. and Y. W. associations. When a new Washburn man comes in to Topeka next week he will have a blue "W" pasted on his suitcase if he wants to take advantage of the big brother Idea. The "W'a" were mailed to every prospective student by the college Y. M. C. A. Every train will be met by a Y. M. C. A. committee to furnish "big brothers" to the new comers to assist him in any difficulties he may encounter in .taking- up college life.. New girls at Washburn have been assigned "big sisters" and know before leaving; home that they will be met bv the "big sister and will have at least one friend to greet thorn and help them in matriculation and in getting settled for college work. A "mixer" to includ all college stu dents Is given at the beginning of every college year, managed by the Y. W. C. A. and the Y. M. C. A. Similar "big brother and "big sister" arrangements are made In the high schoef, where the need for a helping hand is as great, if not greater, than in college. For several weeks Y. W. C. A. girls of the high school have been at work assigning girls of the upper classes to assist the incoming fresh man glr.s, and the "HI Y," or high school Y. M. C. A., is equally watch ful for new boys. DEATH OF JCIXiE AXSEM, CLAnK Sterling; Jurist a Victim of Paralysis Saturday.

Frederic J. Haskln, Director, Washing ton. T. C. A glance at the census figures that are being sent out from Washington from day to day should convince any body interested in the subject that the cities -which have made the greatest growth are those that have been most advertised. The cities showing the highest percentage of gain in popula tion are those the names of which have been most frequently called to public attention. To state the matter differently the growth of a city, like the growth of a business, depends largely on advertising. Of this fact there can be no better illustration in the world than Los Angeles. One, of the features of advertising seldom con sidered is that it does not cost the ad vertiser anything but is paid by his rivals in business if a city, in lost population; if a merchant, in lost cus tomers. The advertiser in trade does not pay the cost of advertising, neither !o fcis customers. The increased profits on the trade won from non advertising competitors pays all the expenses and more. Among the possibilities of woman suffrage seen by the Dallas News is, the men may leave the women to dig up most of the mey-to maintain the party, like they have to work like fury to carpet the church and furnish the parsonage. Another war has broken out in Eu rope, this time between the Poles and the Lithuanians. And Poland is member of the League of Nations. According to opponents of the league in this country, if we were a member we would he sending over additional troops to take part in the new war. Judge John C. Tarsney, who died in Kansas City the other day, probably will be remembered by many old timers in Kansas. He stumped the state in 1S76 inthe interest of the candidacy for governor of the late Judge John Martin. A great deal has been said about excessive profits by the U. S. Steel cor poration. The common stock of that company, outstanding at the end of last year, was something over $508. 000.000, yet during 1917, 1918 and 1919 that concern paid the govern ent over $559,000,000 in federal in come taxes alone. The government undertakes to confiscate about 80 per cent of profits of such concerns but if any one doubts whether such taxes are not actually passed on to the consum er he need only notice the price of a keg of nails, which cost $2.75 in 1914 and which costs $1 now. Clearly there is something wrong with a system which ostensibly takes 80 per cent of excess profits but which really adds that much to the customer's burden. "Keeping the Asiatics out of Amer ica is a duty to the future. We have enough race problems on our hands now," says the St. Louis Times. But the fact remains that they are the least disturbing of all the immigrants who come to tKis country in consider able numbers. There are no reds among them. "Why should the farmer work four 1 teen hours a day to raise wheat which he must sell at a loss to city workers who work eight hours a day for three times as much as the farmer can pay?" says a writer in Leslie's. Give it up; why should he? Senator Kenyon charges that Demo crats have been v.n ambassador ships to foreign countries in return for campaign contributions. It served them rlht. Any man who contributes an extayigant sum to a political cam paign deserves to be punished and a fvw years in a foreign capital should render him incapable of repeating the No American representative of the first class ever yet has been able to live on the salary he received. GETTIXG BACK TO EARTH. In looking back over the post-war period, one fact stands out prominent ly.. That fact is that most of the dire things which were apprehended never came to pass. It is now nearly "two years since yie armistice. The in creasing production of goods in many lines has already exerted a. marked tendency on the trend of talues. While we are still far from a proper balance, business is, nevertheless, tending towards surer footing. Increased production, lessened ex travagance, improved labor conditions these with the projnise of better transportation conditions and good crops are the factors which show that any crisis which may have confronted the country has in all likelihood been safely passed. There is also reassur ing evidence that the sober common sense of the American people is be ginning to reassert itself. There is no question," says a bulletin issued by the Corn Exchange bank of Philadelphia, that during the present year the tight money market and an overextended credit situation aggra vated by most unfortunate transporta tion conditions, warranted some mis givings as to how the situation would work itself out. There were no sign posts to guide the way, but as has been the case all thru this remarkable post war period, there has s-iddenly devel oped an unmistakable trend. Perhaps the first determining fac tor was the realization that we have quite enough to go round enough food, enough clothes, enough com forts, housing conditions excepted, and even enough luxuries to satisfy with a good margin to spare. As a result, business began to feel its way. Man ufacturers and dealers became cau tious and refused to take chances. Many cancellations undoubtedly had a great deal to do with this change in policy. Speculation in merchandise and a disposition to pile up stocks for fear goods would not be available are things of the past in most lines. If this makes for smaller average profits. it also makes for a lessened strain on credits, less inflation and ultimately a healthier price basis. The United States bureau of labor calls attention to the improvement in labor conditions. Immigration re ports show that the influx of foreign ers is limited only to steamer capacity. During the transition period there has been demonstrated that the law of supply and demand, when allowed to operate unhampered by artificial re strictions, will do more than anything else to bring order out of chaos. The equalizing'processes that result from the operation of this law mean in large part not only the solution of our own troubles, but of the troubles of other countries. Theeip too will be found the solution to the problem of establishing a better proportion be tween agriculture and industry! Likewise, may we look for a. remedy in the housing situation. "For an over production in. one industry will divert labor into another. Two California papers, in comment ing on the ratification of the. nine teenth amendment to the United States constitution, make the point that more credit for the suffrage victory belongs to states which voted early for ratifi cation than to Tennessee, which held off to the last and only became the thirty-sixth and deciding state after a stubborn fight. They might have added that the fight still is in prog ress. PROTECTION FOR WORKERS. Recent reports from all parts of the country indicate that along with the development of social insurance against accidents there 1b a widespread movement for the extension of social insurance laws to protect workers also against the hazard of sickness and thee 0Laiive' but.rot, he b"x" menace of unemployment. Probably it is the next problem that legislators, state and national, will be called upon to face, along the line of making safe and sure the welfare of the working man's family. With workmen's compensation laws enacted to date in forty-three states and in Alaska, Porto Rico and Hawaii, in addition to the measure adopted by the federal government for its half million civilian employes, rapid prog ress is being made toward providing industrial accident insurance at cost thru state funds, according to a state ment Issued by the American Associa tion for Labor legislation. "Now that Georgia has at last enact ed a workmen's compensation law," the statement says, "there remain only five states, and these non-industrial states in the south, without social in surance protection against industrial accidents. This means that more than five-sixths of the map of the United States has been covered by compensa tion laws within ten years. There has been a marked tendency in nearly- all states to strengthen the laws in the di rection of more liberal benefits, short er waiting periods before payment be gins and wider scope." Sixteen states and Porto Rico have established state funds for insuring at cost the liability of employers and in seven of these states the funds are ex clusive, eliminating expensive com mercial insurance competition. Re cent official investigations in Pennsyl vania, Ohio and New York disclosed, it is declared, that, compared with the stock casualty companies, the state funds result in savings of millions of dollars every year to industry while at the same time permitting more certain and liberal benefits to Injured, work men and their families. Ohio's exclu sive state fund, which has the united support of employers and employes, is 'shown, it is said, to give the best re suits to both labor and industry. TOPEKA STATE JOURNAL Inft "ormaiion Bureau FREDERIC 3. HASKCf,' Director. Washington, D. C. OX BEHAIiF OP TURKEY BrZZARDS. Washington, D. C-, Sept 4. With several state health departments threatening to make war on the i turkey buzzard on the ground that he spreads anthrax and bog cholera, the j two most dreaded of stock diseases, j the biological survey here has charged to the rescue. The turkey buzzard, a quiet bird citizen who has hereto fore attracted little attention, is now in for a dash of 'publicity. In Dr. W. L. McAtee, who seems to be special counsel for the turkey buz zard, and the other learned govern ment naturalists, the slandered bird has an able and experienced corps of attorneys. These gentlemen are as skilled at applying the whitewash as a political press agent. 'Tis a loathsome and ferocious beast indeed, which they cannot prove to be a friend of man. They have been at work for years teaching natural history thru the newspaper colums, with the prime object of savins: the lives of count less birds, beasts and reptiles, which V. 1 mar. has long been in the habit of kilting on general principles. Take the case of the hawk. At the sight of a hawk of any kind it used to be the invariable rule to run for a shotgun. But by making martyrs of a few hundred hawks and analyzing their stomachs the biological surey proved conclusively that, with a few exceptions, the hawks a.-e friends of man. At killing mice and rats they beat the average cat- a ...ik. posted farmer never shoots at ajiawk any more without first ascertaining whether it is a fricntilv nhilanthroDic hawk or a potltry-klliing hawk. Saving the Owls. The owls were likewise defended. Dr- L. K. Fisher, a man of consider able bulk, climbed every day for many months into a high tower Vf the Smithsonian building to, examine the leavings from the feasts of yi pair of owls up there, with the resurt that he proved them innocent of barnyard depredations and responsible for the death of many a mouse and rat. These facts were mailed, wired and cabled to all parts of the civilized world, so that henceforward it is youf duty before shooting an owl to ascer tain whether he is Bubo Phllanthro picus. the rat-killer or Bubo Terrifi cus. who dines on game and poultry. Even the snakes have not been re jected as clients by these biological pleaders. Owing to his unfortunate share in the scandal of the Garden of Eden, the serpent has been in bad odor ever since the rise of Christian- rity. But as a matter of fact, only- some snakes deserve to be murdered. Litle or nothing can be said in favor of poisonous snakes, but the great majority of snakes in this coun try are not poisonous. Thus the little garter snake we are taught to love. He kills mice and gophers and does us no harm. The terrible-looking black snake, so often killed, is also harmless and useful. He is a con strictor too small to constrict a man. and he should be encouraged to live under the porch or in the garret, as ne is. so rond of doing. If he crawls into bed with you on a cold autumn night, just lie. still and lie will not annoy you. But to get down to the turkey buz zard. Here is a bird that faces a strong circumstantial case against him and who. has few charms that appeal to the jury. Just as it is easy to clear a pretty widow, who, in a petulant moment, has brained her husband with a roUing pin, so is it easy to make out a case for a sweet little bird like the bobwhite. who sits on a fence post and whistles. But it is hard to find anything charming ina buzzard an ugly. 111-smellinar bird that lives on carrion and has a bald"" neaa as ugly as sin. Furthermore, this bird iindnnhtedw dines on the carrion of animals which have died f anthrax and hoir rholem and it seems reasonable, therefor that he should mbe a carrier of diseases. An Heroic Stomach. In k defending him aeainst thin C"tTAe:.-.Uo?ior McAtee instantly ufV" y"? ouzzaras one strong puinc w-mcn is ms digestion. Any bird i.... mi men hi me last stages oi 2.tCay.m' .hav? a Btr.0.nS stomach., osoumyiion is quiCKiy proved to be correct. A scientific test shows that this Dhenomenal diiretiv vsm of th- h,, i .k T -V.' y: I anthrax or hog cholera germ may go niru a cnicxen or an orfossum and buzzard is a death chamber. This has been shown beyond dispute. The only way, then, in which the buzzard could carry germs would be on his feet or on his bill. Inasmuch as he never goes near stock that is alive and well, fie could not be. much of a menace in this way not as much of a menace as several carrion-eating domestic creatures, notably the chick en, and not near as much of a menace as the common fly. Why, then, make war on the buz zard? It is utterly unreasonable. And the buzzard is a useful bird. Do not overlook that. He is literally ubiquitous in the temperate and trop ical portions of America, and in many tropical countries he is protected by law and never shot. In these coun tries he is often ae tame as a sparrow, and his ungainly form adorns the roofs and chimneys of the towns. Es pecially in Mexico is he valued, where people are killed a good deal faster than they can be buried. The turkey buzzard is the Mexfcan national ceme tery.x In him are buried the heroes of a hundred revolutions. Any rural landscape that is robbed of its buzzards has suffered a serious loss. Its most eff.cient scavenger is;plat. or a prize private secretary, or gone. i fti,c,Kr,irT,cf,oirtai v. i The Champion Flyer. And the buzzard, continue the canny Scientists, while not a beautiful or charming bird, is nevertheless an in terestin&one. His habit of dining on carrion and of disgorging it again for the benefit of his young may repel you. His ba!d head and ungainly fig ure are against him. unless you, have a taste for the grotesque. i3ut let him take w-ing. and he is another bird. In stantly he becomes a creature of grace and skill almost incredible. The art of soaring that is, of flying without the wings has been brought by him to a state of perfection that neither other birds nor men with their machines can emulate. Indeed, he is both the model and the inspiration of the airplane. Watch a buzzard some day. He will soar for hours without moving a feather, so Tar as you can see. and will cover a wide range at high speed without apparently losing his elevation. He has a way of volplaning against the wind so that he rises shaprly without any visible effort. He soars so high that no human eye can see him. Yet, from that terrific height, he is study ing the landscape in great detail. Lie down on the ground anywhere in the great western desert country and In alt probability two or three buzzards will soon be saiL'.ig around over you. Where did they come from? From the depths of the sky. And soon these will be sighted by others, and a veritable flock of buzzards will be carefully scrutinizing you. They are not obtru sive. They do not come too close and they do not make a sound. They, mere ly wish to see whether you have lain down to die;' and If you show unmis takable signs of life, they depart in silent dignity.

"Did he owe you anything?" Mother asked, while I examined the type writer. Aunt Susanflushed. The dear old soul was not going to tell us that the machine had been the only thing the young man left her for a debt of months But Mother wormed it out of her. It seemed the young man she said he was about 22 or 23 would write feverishly for weeks, send his story off, and then it would come Dacsr. "He sold one or two while he was with me. But he didn't get much for them. The editors sent him nice little notes, most of them printed, saying his story wasn't just what they wanted, but they Would be glad to hear from him again. It would have been kinder had they told hira he couldn't write, and that he had better cnoose some other occupation. Of course i aian t Know anything about writing stories, but those editors did, and I think it was wrong to encour age the poor fellow." I had listened rather impatiently to Aunt Susan's story of the young story writer. I wanted to trv to writ my self not stories, but to learn to use macnine. aii my desires to be in some private office came back to me. It y no wonder I was excited at find ing the typewriter. Only the day before the doctor had asked me many questions as to what I did, and so on. He had told me that I could not lift trays; in fact, that I must not lift anything, or exert my self in that way, for a long time. "I doubt if you will ever tie able to do the work you have been doivg again." I had said nothing of this to either mother or Aunt Susan, and had bound the doctor to silence. But I had not closed my eye all night. I felt sure he was right, as any exertion brought a sharp pain with it. But I also knew that I had to earn my own living, and that I must some time make a home for mother. Aunt Susan was older than she, and if anything happened to her. mother would have no home. When I found the typewriter a rush of hope swept over me. I would learn to use it. I would commence that very day. Then when I went back, I would take it with me. or hire' one, and help in the restaurant until I was compe tent, then get a position In an office, where I would not be on my feet all day or be obliged to lift anything heavy.

No man can ever imagine himself marrying a women who is cleverer than he is, or has better Judgment, or who Is more widely informed and a clearer thinker. Very often he does, but this is only when the woman is so supernaturally clever that she knows enough to conceal from him how clever she is.- A man's ideal woman is always a domestic creature whose dearest am bition is to make the prize angel food in her community. She may have wn a society butterfly, or a fashion woman, but a man never visions her. in his mind's eye. as continuing to take any interest after marriage in the ttijng that was her whole interest be fore marriage. His idesl woman joyfully gives ud everything for the privilege of cook ing tnings the way he likes them. and. would rather turn out a batch of bread such as his mother used to make than to write a sixth best seller or puli off a big financial deal. But while she spends her life in the kitchen. Fhe never smells of the cook stove, nor does her conversation run to recipes and the price of butchers' meat. And. somewhowin the estab lishment presided over by the ideal woman there are no bills to mar the sweet serenity of domestic life. Perhaps clothes grow on the back of tne ideal woman as feathers do on hens. Perhaps the ideal woman is a conjurer who can wave a magic wand over the gas range and produce a lux urious meal out of thin aix. At any rate, the woman a man sees' in the smoke of his pipe never, never says. "John, the grocer, says that if you don't pay," etc ine ideal woman is never sick, nor nervous, nor fraazied. worn out' and cross. She can be up all rrtght walk- ing a sick baby, and appear sweet and smiling and radiantly good natured at breakxast and look as fresh and spic and span as the stenographer who is waiting for -a. man in his office. But the ideal womans knows by intuition when a man's stomach is out of order and he is dyspeptic and grouchy; and she can distinguish between temper and nerves, and instead of getting angry when he behaves like a spoilt baby she kisses and coddles him and hurries up the dinner. The ideal wife is an adoring wor shipper who never gets jealous. She is a slave who hugs her chains." She gives her husband freedom to wander but stays put herself. And she is the champion forgiver of the universe. A composite portrait of herjrbuld show a picture of Lillian Russell, Theda Barra, Hetty Green and Pa tient Griselda.

George Matthew Adams Daily Talk JjEARX THE DOING OF IMPOR TANT THINGS. TJiere is a great deal of confusion in the minds of the majority of people as to what the really important things in life are. J'o question need exist, however, as to what the essential things are. They are the tasks that must be done. And when done means something. There is plenty of time in which to do the essential and important things, but time is too limited in value to use it for those things which cannot count for any lasting service. The important task stands out apart, like a beggar on the crowded street. but the unimportant job chases itself in a circle, asking for company; Anything which makes you a better individual or which makes some one else happier, is important. Mere money making is not very important. And yet. many men spend an entire lifetime at it and then die poor ana unhappy. I presented to a rmall boy, who was a lover of the stories of Mark Twain, a copy of the humorist's life.

BY CLARISSA MACKIE. Miss Jarvia twisted the solitaire dia mond around on the third finger of her left hand until the glittering stone was buried in her soft palm. Then j she stared at it with dull resentment in her lovely eyes the plain gold band ot the inner circlet looked like a wed' ding rimz. With a swift, ruthless ces' ture she tore It from her finger and sent it spinning across the room. from a dark corner of the rich car pet the jewel .glowed at her like an angry accusing eye a questioning eye! "Why?" it seemed to ask, "Why did you lead James Meade on if you did not love him? Why did you accept this rinfi from him and promise to marry him? Was it because he is rich and influential and you were afraid to wait for Paul Paul with his fearless courage during the war his -medals of honor his crippled foot Paul coming home from war with Joyous heart to find fallen fortunes and to learn that his promised wife had changed her mind and was going to marry an older man one safe and sound, rich with the Making of war time profits?" "No no no whispered Elsie, covering her shamed eyes with her ringless fingers; "but I couldn't ham per Paul with my support when he had to begin all over again The eve winked derisively, --ten that to the marines but not to Paul Browning," it seemed to say. Elale rerarded the Jewel with rebel lious eyes. The door pushed open and man entered. "Your motner wra you were in here," he said cheerfully, as he leaned over and kissed her un willing lips. "You look awfully In the blues, dear. Come and drive with me I want to show you a house in v est- chester." "I don't like Westchester, James. Long Island is much smarter, and be sides there are some lovely oia places there." "Too old. some of them. "I love old places," she said defiant ly "Little old-fashlrtned houses nug- eine- the water, witn quaint guraeno and giant locusts and "You are describing tne oia urown' Inar nlace. Elsie." he said coldly. There was silence Detween tnem ror a moment until his glance found the elitterlns ring in the corner. "Your ring?" he asked with lifted brnwa aa he broueht it to her. "It slipped off no I threw it there. -I am sorry but I am cross this morning forgive me," she cried penitently. He smiled and kissed her, but hts eyes were troubled as he put it on her fineer. Presently they were gliding along the Westchester roads under a glor ious summer sky. Elsie admired the heaiitifnl house her lover had chosen it was go perfect in every detail that only a carping spirit could find fault with it and Elsie was sore-hearted. not mean. "Now we are going to look at a place on Long Island," he said as he turned tne car towara tne city, r irsi. we will have a bite to eat." Elsie was surprised when they stooDed before a modest restaurant on a crowded thorofare. James Meade usually patronized the best hotels and when they lunched it was either in some tea room of Elsie's choice or a fashionable hotel restaurant. "You will find the food particularly arood here, he apologized as they en tered, "and the service is unsurpassed we won't have to wait." This Droved to be the case, but Elsie ate little beyond the first spoonfuls of soup; her eyes caught sight of a fa miliar figure across the the room a straight young form garbed as a waiter, but with a pathetic limp. The accusing eye winked at her again as she dropped her spoon with a sick ening realization that Paul, her splen did young lover, had come to this! Fortunately, he did not see them and later when they were again In the car she turned to Meade with blazing eyes. "You did it intentionally, James; how could you?" she demanded. "It Is better that you should know and see things Just as they are," he said gravely, but the girl only smiled bitterly and turned away her head She did not speak to him, again for a long time, as they threaded the city streets crossed the bridge and finally emerged upon the Merrick road. Then she closed her eyes to keep back the tears that wanted to come. At one moment -she yearned to give Meade his ring and hasten back to Paul Paul Browning, a waiter in a restaurant Paul who had fought for her as he had for thousands of others like her she wanted to snatch him away and work for him; she wanted to do some menial labor for him "Here we are," cried Meade cheer ily as he stopped the car. but when Elsie opened her eyes she could not see until the tears had brimmed over. Meade pressed his handkerchief to her face and at last she smiled waver ingly at him. "I am such a goose," she said- "A dear delightful goose." he agreed as he lifted her down and pushed open a white painted gate. "And what do you think of this., Elsie?" He stood apart with folded arms and watched her face change from sweet gravity to wonder, and then Joy. The Joy quickly faded to resentment. "Not this place, James not Paul's old home "You love it?" he asked. '"For his sake," she said bravely. "I would leave my own luxurious home I would give you up, with all that means; only to be with' him and wait upon him always 1 don't care, how poor how lowly -forgive me, James, dear, I am so unhappy and I have been very wicked!" He held her very close in his arms until she had sobbed out her grief, and while his voice was brave his eyes were hurt. He truly loved Elsie and he did not want her without the love that she had to give some one. and above all he was generous and he wanted her to be happy. "I couldn't buy this place if I want ed to, dear," he said at last, "your future husband has too much grit to let it go I've tried to buy him out thru my agent and he wouldn't sell Unknown to him I've had an open ing made for him in my cousin's bank and the ring that is my wed ding gift to you and you are to dis pose of it and buy some scrubbing brushes and things for your house I'm going now. Elsie and you must be happy and make him happy, too! Some day. I'm coming out to see if you are living up to it! I think I hear him coming now -Good-by He wrung her hand, dashed down the steps and into his machine; in a mo ment there was a cloud of dust on the shore road. From the other direction came the rattling whlr-r-r- of a mo torcycle. Elsie went down to the gate and held it open as Paul cam thru, afoot, limping, hia eyes ashine. "El sie," he cried Inereduloaisly. "You waiting for me?" Why, I dream of this every day, but" She crept into his arms. "T am the dreams come true," she whispered.

Secret of These "Dog Days Eliminate poisons and congestion from stomach and bowels with Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin THERE is no time of the year when people should be more careful of their diet than during the hot summer months, but unfortunately it Is the season of greatest carelessness. Cold foods, ices, unripe and overripe fruits are soon followed by cramps, heartburn, indigestion, constipation. Do not wait until you have a splitting headache, but when you find yourself getting bilious and constipated, that very night take a teaspoonful of Egyp tian Senna and Pepsin, which is sold in drugstores under the name of Dr. Cald well's Syrup Pepsin. By morning your bowels will be relieved and the conges tion gone. Then be cautious at meal time for a few days and you will have no further trouble. Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin is a com bination of simple laxative herbs with pepsin that has grown in great public favor for thirty years. We know of many thousands of households that are never without a bottle. Mr. Eugene McManus of Manayunk. Pa., was very FREE KiiUinnt of henhl chronic constipation. Dr. W. B.

May Go to $19 Cheaper After' October 1, Prediction. The sugar market In Topeka has ad vanced $1 per hundred, bringing the present wholesale price up to $18. It is expected that it will go to about $19 before October 1, when the new crop of beet sugar comes in. This will tend to reduce prices again, local whole sale men said today. Even at $18 sugar Is cheaper in To peka than in almost any other city, with the possible exception of Chicago, it was stated. The advance, it was said, is due to the fact that most of the jobbers are getting low on stock. It was explained that jobbers bought very heavily on sugar earlier in the year. Pressing demand for money necessitated unloading their stock and this resulted in lower prices. Since the fruit season is here and the de mand for refined sugar has grown heavy, the stocks are dwindling and the jobbers are facing the necessity of buying again from the refiners at high prices. Large amounts of fruit are being sold for canning, in spite of sugar prices. Fruit is now about as cheap as it usually gets in the summer, with the exception of peaches, which, will probably go some lower. Neverthe less,' huge amounts of blue plums and peaches are being sold. Italian prunes are now available at $1.65 retail for a 16-pound crate. This is less than the blue plums sell for. The later bring about 90 cents a basket. Peaches Colorado Elbertas cscn be bought for $5.50 a bushel. Michigan Bartlett pears are selling at $4 a bushel at many stores. The fancy oears- on the market earlier in the season were much higher. Good cook ing apples are selling at $3 a bushei retail. Hand picked Jonathans are worth about $12 for a 140-pound bar rel. Rocky Ford cantaloupes are now selling at ten cents each and water melons at two cents per pound. A Potatoes can be bought for about $1.75 a bushel. Merchants say, how ever, that during the time of high prices, people became accustomed to buying a few pounds at a time and continue to do so. This necessitates a bigger charge, usually three and a half to four cents a pound. Merchants said it is not advisable to buy too heavy on sugar, as the mar ket probably will break again Octo ber 1.
