Headqtiarters for Relief To Bo Established at Riga. London, Aug. 2S. Four parties of Russian relief workers will start for Russia Thursday, it was announced today at Russia relief headquarters. One will go to Petrograd, a second will go to Moscow and a third will sto into the Volga famfne district to estab lish local headquarters and the fourth, wbioh will go from Constantinople, will enter the southern part of the Volga district and work northward. Dr. Kansen, who will be actively in charge of the international .relief movement, will not enter Russia. Ho will maintain headquarters in Riga. The first ship from New York -with American supplies is expected to sail in a week. Famine Paralyzes Workers.' Efforts of employed workers In Russia to help the famine sufferers are hindered by the fact that they themsojves are weakened thru lack of proper looa. says a Moscow aispatcn to the Daily Herald. Famine now is paralyzing the stronar and weak alike.- it adds, and many men xor wnom employment is avail- able are too enfeebled to do anything requiring physical exertion. Jt is esti mated by the Herald's Moscow cor respondent that the workers 4n the suburbs of the larger towns are re- ceiving only 30 per cent ot the allot ted rations. Operations of the Volga river fleet, the chief means of carrying food U the- famine area, is continued with the greatest difficulty because the chvi are half starved. In the Kazan .are many have been without bread since June 'and., the correspondent says, dock workers often are without food for three or four consecutive days. In Samara the people are eating the grass that escaped, the scorchin? drouth, and acorns are regacded as a luxury. So Hope for Next Year. At least a partial repetition next summer ef this year's crop failure in the Volga region now appears inevit able, according to ofrlcial Bolshevikl advlc-.and indeueruleni: diKimtrh.. from Moscow. The Russian peasants are said to be doing their utmost to furnish a seed, supply for the stricken provinces, but with only a few wesks remaining be fore the latest possible date for sow ing an' extremely small proportion -of the seed grain needed has been gath ered in Russia and the foreign grain which has been ordered is slow In coming.

"Time doenvjiot wait, and our stride Is too slow." Another somewhat contradicfory radio dispatch says that two consign ments of seed rye, totalling l,?00,0t poods, already have been received and t'tstributed among the districts ot the Samz.ra- government, allaying tiie panic and curtailing the migration ot x ne ouuice ui mis supply is not explained. s I'otetgn seed deliveries are so d2 layed, says a Moscow dispatch to U' Lttvian telegraph agency, that th5jr w !i not aid the famine Btrlcken i;ev e;x.mcnts so far as planting is cim cetred. but the seed grain will be good for cc nsumption.

Judge Crawford Sounds a Warn ing to Job Hunters. f!0W MORE MEN THAN WORK Much Improyement in Indus trial Conditions Is IVoted Topeka Leads Other Kansas Cities in Employment. Indication of -a,' large influx of un employed from the east is an alarming feature of the industrial situation in Kansas, according to Judge John H. Crawford of the industrial court, who Is director of tlie Kansas free employ ment bureau. Judge Crawford is warning other states not to send men to Kansas as there are no surplus Jobs available. Kansas is better off than most other Mates in this repion from an employ ment standpoint, because Kansas is agricultural rather than Industrial, Judge Crawford stated, but an influx of unemployed would not only ag gravate the situation here but would not materially relieve it in other sec tions of the country. The -weekly registrations at the seven Kansas branch employment bureaus is now approximately 800 as compared with 600 jobs open. At several offices there were nearly three times as many men who called looking for work as those who actually regis tered, indicating a larger number of drifters. Indications of Betterment. Some indications of bettered indus trial conditions have appeared, Judge Crawford pointed out. The Santa Fe KaUway company at Topeka has an nounce thtit about one-half of the 1,300 men who were let oui of the "shops here several months ago will be taken back shortly The railroad shops at Kansas City, Kan., are now reported nearly back to normal operation. Fail plowing and other farm work will absorb a portion of the unemployed. The coal industry, which usually is in full blast by July 1, has been operat ing at about half time because of little dr-mand from industrial plants for steam coal. The mines are ex pected to increase operations soon, however, to take care of home fuel demands. No official estimate has been made of the number of unemployed in Kan sas' since last January, when the num ber was p.a.red at 12.000. The pros pects for the immediate future are summed up in these abstracts from the reports of employment bureau managers from over the state: Topeka in the Ixad. An increasing number of skilled workmen are drifting into Topeka from the larger industrial centers of the east. They give very bad reports of conditions in the cities from which tiiey com. I a-m inclined to think that Topeka is better off in regard to labor than any other city of equal size in the United States. There is a good supply of small jobs offered daily. Wichita- The demand for casual or short jobs is very light. There is a gfod demand for men on farms for ifcll plowing. Men should not come hu-re for work at this time as more trifters or iloating laborers are com itip; in than can be taken care of. Kansas City The railroads hava jiut back most of tb?eir old employes in the shops. But few calls for farm Hands are now being received. More are expected soor. Parsons There is a surplus of reg istrations. Demand for farm help for ffll plowing and seeding is a little heavier thun last week. 5 KEY NOTE 'BY GOMPFRS.

Is Kansa producing a generation of centenarians? This question is asked by Dr. Charles H. Lerrigo, chief of the divi sion of vital statistics of the estate board of health. And the reason is that deaths for the first six months of 1921 were but 8.942 as compared with 11.295 in the same period a year ago. This is a death rate of five per thousand for the half year. If this rate be maintained indefinitely it means ten death annually per thou sand population and the average per son 'Will live to' be one hundred years old. Doctor Lerrigo is not disposed to be lieve that the fabled fountain of youth has been discovered in Kansas, but he is elated that general health condi tions are apparently so good. A tabulation of deaths from the principal diseases for the first six months of 1921 shows several striking features. In he first place, there were eleven deaths rom smallpox in the first half of this year as compared to three deaths in the entire year 1920. Calling attention to these figures. Doc tor Lerrigo issues a warning that re newed precautions must be taken against this virulent disease which was supposed to be practically stamp ed out. A more 'encouraging feature Is the decrease in deaths from tuberculosis, from 605 in the first six months of 1920 to 400 in the corresponding period of this year. Deaths from in fluenza, which took its last heavy toll in the spring of 1920, decreased In the two periods from 1.020 to 113. Other principal diseases which caused deaths for the first six months of 1921: typhoid fever, J.: measles, 77; scarlet fever, 66; whooping cough, 69; diphtheria. 118; cancer (all forms), 634; diabetes. 138;. cerebral hemorrhage, 790; paralysis. 132: dis eases of the heart, 781; broncho pneu monia, 357; lobar pneumonia, 848; intestinal disorders, 199; appendicitis, 113; acute nephritis, 34; Bright's die ease, 756: congenital malformations. 132; premature births, 348; congenital debility, 78; and diseases of eaiiy in fancy, 174.

T- fj 1 AUTO TO SESSIONS Kansas Veterinarians Want ?fext Convention at K. C. Flans for "Caravan" to Denver Are Abandoned. According to reports received by Drt Harry M. Graefe, approximately 150 motor cars carrying from 200 to 250 Kansas veterinaries and their fam ilies will make their way to Denver, Colo., within the next ten days, where the vets will attend the annual con vention of the American Veterinary Medical association, which will be in session there from September 5 to 9, inclusive. Plans for the Kansas veterinaries to attend the convention have been made by a committee appointed by the Kan sas Veterinary Medical association, of which Doctor Graefe is chairman. The state association is taking particular interest in the convention this year as it is the first time the national event has been held in an adjoining state, and the Kansas vets are behind a movement to swing he 1922 conven tion to Kansas City- Doctor Graefe says two-thirds of the graduate veter inaries in th$ state will be at the con vention. Plans for the vets to join in one big motor car parade over the Midland trail have been at andoned, as some wished to go early and visit other points in Colorado before the conven tion and others wanted to wait and make their side trips. Some will start west the last of this week and others will wait until the first of the month before starting. Both the Midland and Santa Fe trails will be used. Arrangements hj, been made for the Kansas delegation to camp to gether In Overland park, Denver, dur ing the conventior Space has ,been reserved there for 200 cars. At least ythree Topeka veterinaries and their wives i ill make the trip. They are Dr. and Mrs. J. O. Young, Dr. and Mrs. Graefe, and Dr. and Mrs. Albert Kushner. Dr. L. S. Campbell, a government inspector, whose head quarters are at this place, but who is at present in Wichita, will also attend the convention. OFFICE BUILDING i Con tin ned from Page O n tend a meeting of the "Greater To peka association" tonight and explain the features of their contracts. Alschlager builds hotels. After the building is constructed, the operation and management is left to the stock holders and directors. Perhaps $150,000 would be necessary to start the project here. Smith inti mated. Alschlager will furnish the balance. Alschlager recently" built the new Sheridan Plaza hotel in Chicago, with 430 rooms. Hotel Will Pay. "'Day before yesterday," said Smith, "the cafeteria, built to seat 202 peo ple, fed 2,408 people. There were 974 dinners served in the dining room. If it keeps on Ui the future as It has in the past, the hotel will pay 20 per cent on an investment of four and a half million1 dollars. And this notwithstanding the fact that it is lo cated ten miles from the Loop, where people said it would be throwing money aWay to build it." Smith said that two years ago he purchased the Madison hotel in Jef ferson City, a town of 13,500 inhabi tants, for $17,500. In thirteen months he decrared he made $23,810 clear profit and sold the furniture and lease for $50,009. A hotel in Kansas City, which he declined to name, was furnished at a cost of $57,410. The first year, he de clared, he turned over to the propri etors $31,280; the second year $47,340. The lease and furniture then sold, he said, for $115,000 and has been pay ing 18 per cent on the $115,000 in vestment ever since it was sold- Sev eral other similar examples were cited. Tonrlsts Leave 910 Each. Statistics show. Smith said, that tourists ordinarily leave an average of $10 each behind in a town the size of Topeka. It is the town with the good hotel, he asserted, which attracts them. Many traveling men, he rdded, have told him that they would spend Sunday in Topeka in preference to go ing on to Kansas City If good accom modations were only available. "And what is Tcpeka doing to at tract people -to the city?" he asked. This town could get along better without the state house than without a hotel, so far as its growth and de velopment are concerned." Are you within the law?

S. Now. With the technical re-establishment of peace with the Germans and their late allies, there is no hesitation on the part of the merchandising class of the central powers to seek the resump tion of trade relations with the United States. Trade feelers are being put out toward the United States from many countries in Europe at the present time especially the countries which have suffered from the war. Czecho-Slovakia, one of our allies during the world war, and one of the keenest sufferers on the "winning side," is looking toward the United States for the same assistance in com merce as the arml forces of Uncle Sam gave in war. There has been re ceived at the Topeka Chamber of Commerce more than one inquiry for the names and addresses of Topeka dealers in one commodity or another, who might be "prospects" for goods from that country. Get Dally From Praha Here. The Chamber of Commerce is now on the free mailing list of the "Prager Presse," published In Praha, Czecho slovakia, a daily newspaper -published in German, and filled with the adver tisements of firms and concerns in that far country which have wares which they wish to dispose of to the United States.

JITNEYS WINJN WICHITA Supreme Conrt Knjotns Enforcement of City Ordinance. The state supreme court today granted a temporary injunction to prevent enforcement of a Wichita city ordinance prohibiting jitney busses from operating on the same streets with street cars. Pending final hear ing, set for October 3, the jitney operators are required to deposit with the Sedgwick county district court the amount of bonds required ,hy the ordinance. Recently the Wichita city commis sion passed an ordinance denying jit ney drivers the right of traffic serv ice on certain streets traversed by the street railway company. The jitney owners sought to enjoin operation of the ordinance. When they failed in the lower courts, the case was ap pealed to the supreme court which was today asked for a temporary "re straining order pending final hearing on the appeal. The case was argued in chambers today by attorneys rep resenting the Jitney owners and the city and street railway company. GRAIN MARKET LETTER. (Fnrnisbed by B. C. Christopher, 226 New England Kidg., Topeka, Kan., L. C. Hex wife', Mgr.) Chingn. Aug. 23, 1021. WHEAT Local sentiment early inclined to the buying aide, and the market started strong, only to encounter selling for prof its, which met poor buying power and re sulted In a decline of nearly 3 cents. Shortly before the close atrengtb again de Teloped and the losa was fully recovered. The news from export circles was rather disappointing, bids In most cases being reported out of line. Kereipts continue large in the southwest, while the move ment tn northwestern markets is increasing and will probably be of large proportions by next week. Hinneapolis messages claimed a better ad for low grade wheat and said there was evidence of a better flonr trade with mills operating on an increased basis. Attention was called to the fact today that there are 7,800.000 cars, or about 11.000.000 bushels of all grains on track in Chicago not appearing in the visible Canadian crop reports are generally favorable and threshing returns said to be better than expected. The disposition of the large. Canadian surplus this year is going to be quite a problem and with a heavy movement im minent in that country, as well as the American spring wheat belt, we do not think an extended ad ranee in oar market will take place. CORN TbH market, considering the strength ?atp yesterday showed a lagging tendency today. Kereipts were estimated at xt cars ana rue nemana was rairlT good as yesterday's basis. Shipping sales of f 1K2.00O bushels included 200.000 bushels to exporters. Country offerings are liberal i and will undnubtedW increase on the small i Advance, with the result that such bulges are not apt to be maintained. OATS Trade was small and altho there was no ,ressore of consequence on the i market, tne tone was not strong. KeceiptK j showed a further falling off and the cash I market was fairly steady. Country offer ings to arrive light. Are to Be Envied. fiocA tetl play a VlMlT ToDfty FOR mutt! Trade Communications from In the Nachtrichten, 75 per cent of tne advertising consists of small card announcements of firms which express their desire to do an export business in their wares. There are the an nouncements of nearly 300 would-be exporters in a single issue. The things they want to dispose of include, chief ly, machinery and tools. Also there are rifles and automatic pistols. The average returned Yank soldier can testify to the efficiency of tne automatic pistol of German manu facture. In the same list there are cigar and cigaret ads. And the Yank who has been "afoot for smokes" and has loot ed German soldiers, dead or prisoners. of the smokes which Jerry affected during the big fuss, will not recom mend the aforesaid tobaccos with any great degree of heartiness. Britain Looks This Way. Britain has her part'in the appeal for American trade. A 546-page cata log of the "British Industries Fair," held in' London in February and March of this year, has been received by the Topeka Chamber of Commerce. The fair, which was a huge industrial ex hibition in which only British indus tries were permitted to participate, consisted of goods displayed by hun dreds of British firms, and including practically every item produced in the United Kingdom. The fair was staged by the British Board of Trade, and was in direct charge of the Depart ment of Overseas Trade a depart ment whose sole function is the stimu lation of trade with other countries chiefly America, Belgium, the country which re turned after the war to industrial nor malcy in the shortest time of any country participating in the struggle. Is not behind. There has been re ceived, translated into English, the year book of the Belgian National Chamber of Commerce. Kurope Seeks U. S. Trade. Europe is looking toward the United States for trade, as she has never looked before, and the tenacles of the European trade organizations are ex ploring with more minute care, every possible source of customers. Europe seems to have forgotten the war. In her effort to get the wheels of production and industry turning again at their normal rate of speed.

Quayle, and wife of Arthur C. Burch, facing trial for the murder of J. Belton Ken nedy, it was officially announced to day. Mrs. Burch, wjiose suit for divorce is pending at Lawrence, Kan., wilL be asked to throw new light on the re lationship of her husband and Mrs. Madalynne Connor Obenchain, in dicted with him for the Kenned, slay ing. Deputy District Attorney Asa Keyes stated that an investigation of the marital difficulties between Burch and his wife may disclose a new "lead" in the affairs of Burch and Mrs. Obenchain. While Mrs. Oben chain was not named in Mrs. Burch's divorce suit, the investigation will pro ceed on the theory that Mrs. Oben chain was the woman in the case. Mrs. Burch is now. in seclusion at the home of her father at Ludington, Mich., where she will probably be seen by the district attorney's investigators now working out of Chicago in the case. Coincident with the announcement that Mrs. Burch will be questioned, Keyes disclosed officially for the first time that it is the theory of the prose cution that Burch was "wildly in love" with Mrs. Obenchain and that the slaying resulted from Kennedy's re fusal to marry her.

I'. An appropriation ot 1240,450 for thu secretary of agriculture to make e.Tectlve the provision of the packers' control act, is requested in an esti mate transmitted to congress by president Harding. The amount, the president's communication said, would be adequate for the enforcement of tho law until June 30, 1922. This re quest for approximately a half mil lion dollars to be expended in less than a year indicates the employment of a considerable number of law en forcement officers. WrTwa these be gin bothering the packers, in an effoit to makit it appear that they areearn ins their salaries, up will go the price of meat. As a result of more "govern ment in business," therefore, the peo ple will be taxed both by the govern ment and the packers. Every interfer ence of the federal authorities has re silted this way and there is no reason to think that the control of thepack lng industry will prove to be an excep tion to the rule. The editor of the Railway Age op poses agitation for early reductions in rates and the repeal of the provisions of the transportation act under which the present rates were fixed, assert ing that the railroads as yet have de rived no real benefit from these rate making provisions. The indications are that they will derive little benefit from existing rates. If they want to do a profitable business they must re duce their charges for service. One of the first acts of Henry Ford on taking charge of his newly ac quired railroad was to convert into revenue producing passenger cars four private coaches which had been used by officials on "inspection" tours. Herein lies a hint for other roads which complain of inadequate revenues. The reduction of freight rates on wheat for export it is said will en able American wheat to compete with that of Argentina in foreign markets. Improved export demand will of course tend to raise the price but if there be any advance the credit there for probably will 'be accorded by the protectionists to the emergency tariff. Railway passenger agents insist that traffic Is holding up despite the increased fares, but the size of the trains that are being operated does I not bear out the contention. 4t will astonish many to learn, says the Sioux City Tribune, that when a car of grain moves from Station A to a terminal market in Nebraska the car mile charge is 23 cents higher than when a car. of cement moves from tho same terminal market to Station A. Even eggs, easily broken, go from Js'cbraska. to Chicago at a rate 12 cents less than wheat- The expla nation is that there is much more wheat moved than eggs or cement. This rate making system seems to be directly opposed to the usual principle by which the bigger the business done the lower are the charges. It is suspected that the refusal of congress to enact a sales tax law is due to a desire to collect revenue in a way that cannot sbe traced to Its source. Under the sales tax plan ev erybody would know exactly how much he pays and would make a furs when expenditures became greater than the actual needs of the govern ment demand. It is 'pninted out by an eastern edi tor that "within half a century the percentage of producers in the total population of the United States has been reduced 60 per cent." This may be true but it might be added that th; country is producing much more In proportion to population than ever be fore and at tbe same time working shorter hours. Machinery has done it. IMPROVED RAILROAD EARJilJfGS Month by month the railroads are beginning to reflect the benefits aris ing from private operation, as well as the tardy recognition of the rights tc which they are entitled as public car riers. The change in their status be came evident with May this year, an is growing more apparent with eacn statement issued. In May last year the Class I rail roads had an actual net deficit in op erating income of J5. 429. 769, while the same month this year showed a net operating income of $37, 080, 54. This improvement was not due to a gain in operating revenues, and must be ascribed to a reduction of about $57,000,000 in operating expenses. The actual figures show operating revenues in May, 1920, of 3457,559, 000, compared with only 1444,875.000 for the same month in 1921. Oper ating expenses in May last year were $437,829,000 against $380,041,000 in May this year. The net operating in come for May was nearly one-half the amount necessary to give the carriers a return on their properties equiva lent to an annual rate of S per cent. The gains are even more pro nounced in the last two months. The net operating income for June was $51,778,000, and estimates place the returns for July in excess of $54,000, 000. According to unofficial calcula tions made by railroad authorities, the net operating income of the Class I roads, assuming a maintenance of the present volume of traffic, will furnish a return practically equal to the 6 per cent on valuation. The wage reductions which went Into effect July 1 are expected to re duce the cost of railroad operation by" about $35,000,000 monthly. In other words, if these reductions had been in effect in May, the net operat ing income of the Class I roads would have been about $72,000,000. The amount necessary to make the 6 per cent return is a trifle over $92,000,000 per month. If the roads had fixed their rates at a figure which would have induced patronage they might easily have made up the additional $20,000,00(1. They seem to prefer to get on a pay ing basis thru reduction of expenses alone rather than combine with that process an increase in business. However, the roads are showing tardy recognition of the advantage to accrue to them thru lower rates in the announcement that freight rates on grain and cereal products from Chi-' cago and kindred traffic points in the middle west will be reduced 7 cents per hundred pounds on shipments in tended for export. The carriers also have proposed a reduction of 4 cents per hundred on grain and cereal prod ucts for domestic shipment. HAULING EMPTY CARS. The Railway Age prints an editorial of considerable length, designed to prove that shipments of farm prod ucts of almost all kinds are extraor dinarily large in spite of complaint re garding the present railway ratefl. The figures set forth may be correct. The farmers still had on hand a large part of last year's crop when this year's crop was harvested. It there fore became necessary for them to sell for what they could get or let their grain rot on the ground. The result is that when freight and other expenses are paid farmers have no money with which to buy any thing. As a result the long lines of railroad cars which are carrying grain to market return empty, when lower freight rates probably would give the roads full cars for the return haul. Public complaints of high freight rates have not been based solely on their effect on farmers, but on their effect on the business of the entire country. "The present freight rates have been widely attacked by theorists," says the Age, "on the ground that they are 'higher than the traffic can b'ur.' It has been argued that they have prevented the movement of much traffic and tha this has been one of the main causes of the prolonged bus iness depression." This Is true and the contention still stands. Not only have the high rates resulted in business depression but. they have deprived the railroads of much revenue which they might have earned, thru the hauling of traffic both ways, instead of but in one direc tion. There is no money In hauling a train of empty cars. This feature of the situation is illustrated by the Ase when it says: "Paradoxical as it may seem, while the total traffic moving has been abnormally small the ship ments of farm products have been al most unprecedentedly large." There is no sound reason why, when shipments of farm products are larg?, shipments of other commodities should not be large also, and the fact that they are not is due to the absorp tion of so large a part of the selling price of commodities by the carriers. The Age concludes as follows: The facts show beyond any rational question that traffic of all Rinds can bear the present rates and that the present small volume of traffic is due to general business conditions and not to the present freight rates. There ought to be reductions in railway rates in the future, but they should not be based on false ground and they should not be made until the traffic of the railways has increased and their operating expenses have been reduced enough to enable the railways on low er rates, to make a reasonable return. The reverse of the foregoing state ment is true. Instead of the present small volume of traffic's being due to general business conditions, general business conditions are due to the en forced small volume of traffic. More over, if the roads wait for an increase in traffic before reducing rates, they prob?.bly will wait a long time. TOPEKA STATE JdURNAL Information Bureau FREDERIC 3. RASKIN, Director, Washington, D. C THE COST OP MATRIMONY. New York City. Aug. 19. What is the price of a "comfortable" marriage? Altho several frivolous answers to this question will no doubt readily come to mind, a serious one is badly needed. Divorce, lawyers tell us that most marriages fail because they are badly financed. The family income is unfairly distributed or insufficient. "Money," declares one of these busy lawyers rhetorically, "is the rock upon which the majority of marriages go to smas:i." "How then," engaged couples well might ask, "can we avoid this common reef of matrimonial woe and guide our dispositions and bank accounts safely thru the storm?" They well might,, but do they? The results of. a questionnaire re cently sent out to l.OOOyoung men and women living in the X. M, C. A. and Y. W. C. A. in New York would indicate that they don't. "Suppose you wanted to marry someone," this ques tionnaire asked. "What weekly income would you consider necessary to fi nance a comfortable marriage?" Then, in parentheses, the young things were reminded that while "comfortable" might mean the possession of a talk ing machine, it dlld not include an eight-cylinder car. The object of the questionnaire was to obtain exact and detailed figures that could be used as a basis in mak ing op standard budgets for the newly married. What did the average per son expect matrimony to cost? Of the 1,000 persons selected, only 200 had given the matter sufficient study to make their suggestions of value. They were hovering on the brink of matrimony and were intelli gently aware of its financial problems. Of the others, the young ladies seemed to feel that the consideration of fam ily budgets was rather premature. As one of them explained, "First catch jour husband," was her motto. In a similar vein one of the young men replied, "Never bother trouble till trouble bothers you." Nevertheless, the questionnaire se cured a great deal of useful informa tion for the benefit of those who are interested in the' relation ot money to matrimony, showed, for one thing, that women are more extravagant than men. They require a larger weekly income as the basis for a "comfortable" marriage than do men, but the men are higher in their esti mates of what is necessary in the way of a savings fund. A weekly income of $71 was the minimum upon which the women thought it safe to get mar ried, but the men felt that a "com fortable" marriage could be arranged on from $50 to $60 a week. Budgets According to Sex. The estimates varied among the men according to their earnings and occupations. Salesmen Were inclined to agree with the women that $70 .a, week was necessary to-marital bifss, while professional men felt that $60 would be sufficient, and clerks felt that $50 was ample. Clerks are re signed to matrimony on a small salary. Their estimate was lower than that of workmen. The women, on the other hand, showed no class distinctions whatso ever. Regardless of varying degrees of education, refinement and attrac tiveness, they were all -determined to keep house on exactly the same scale. None was willing to risk her happiness for less than $71 per week, while one out of every four felt that $100 a week would be necessary to her peace and comfort. It must be remembered, however, that these estimates are based upon New York -prices, which are greatly above thoseexisting in other cities. Below are a couple of specimen budgets, showing the differ ent eaftmates of men and women: Item Per Per Tent, jfent Men. "women. Shelter, rent, car fare Jin.Ol $1R4S 24 .25 Food 15.78 17.02 2S 23 Clothing 8,54 12.89 15 18 Operating (a 1 I services, ice, fuel, otc.) 5.61 7.71 11 Savlna-s, inelud cluding insur ance) 6.R6 7.67 11 1ft. Advancement (education, va- cation, etc.)... 4,00 0.55 8 8 Amusements 3.19 4.07 5 5 $57.S9 $73.39 100 10O It is interesting to note that while the women required a larger weekly income than the men, both sexes dis tributed their incomes practically on lthe same basis. The only great dif ferences are in rooa ana doming, tne women spending more on adornment and the men more on food. It is natural that girls should have ambitions which men cannot be ex pected to share," explained a member of the committee which sent out the questionnaire, "and that they should set the expenses of a comfortable mar riage somewhat higher. The labor and privations of bringing up a fam ily on a small salary fall more on the wife than on the husband. He earns the salary, but she has to make it stretch, often magically, to cover the cost of groceries and clothes and household comforts. Then, too, we must remember that abstractly and as a matter of principle, women are ex travagant. W hen a general question on the financial basis of marriage is put before men and women, the men tend to answer it by a figure slightly lower than that on which tttey them- seves would be willing; to marry, and the women by a somewhat higher one." AD Believe in Saving. Both men and women showed a. gratifying sense of thrift in declaring saving funds absolutely essential to the comfort of matrimony. The wis dom of such a fund to meet unfore seen emergencies of sickness, accident, and unexpected loss of employment is only too seldom realized. Men, the questionnaire replies re vealed, place a higher value on this wisdom than do women. While t per cent of the girls were willing to marry a man who had no money in bank, only 3 per cent of the men would consider such a risk. Yet the amount required by both'sexes is rather lower than might be desired. In most cases it was fixed at $500, while 13 per cent of the number replying thought $200 would be enough. Those who went above $500 usually jumped swiftly to $1,000, while a third group contain ing many more men than women, de clared they would not marry with less than $1,500 in bank. Every answer placed great emphasis on the importance of setting aside for savings at least 10 per cent of the in come. Evidently experience had shown many of the budgeters the dif ficulties encountered in performir this task regularly, for elaborate schemes were advanced for doing it. One man, "for example, said that he intended to pay all of his household bills by check the first of the month, and that the first check he drew would be for 10 per cent of his salary, to be deposited hastily in the savings bank. On the subject of savings, tho, eco nomic experts disagree. Some hold that disaster swiftly overtakes those who do not regularly save their 10 per cent, .while others assert that when young people marry on a small in come it is a mistake to try to save too much cash. It would be far bet ter in most cases, the latter believes, to put this money into insurance or house furnishings or some other per manent investment. Some savings banks distributing standard budgets for the benefit of their patrons, list "investments, life insurance and house hold furniture" under the weekly sav ings item. This is largely a -matter to be de cided by personal taste. In fact, the entire budget is something which must be worked out tgsTTft the individual, there being' few standard budgets which can be used without at -least minor alterations. The. important thing Is to have some kind of budget. Everybody should have a budget, but it is especially necessary to matrimony, where so much dependsupon. wise and careful finance. "If engaged couples' would ''spend less time wearing out- park benches," said a New York magistrate the other day, "and more time in the public libraries, absorbing a little informa tion on household finance, there would be a great falling off in divorce cases, in my opinion." Dorothy Dix Talks BY DO BOTH T MX Worii Egbert Paid M(ome Writer. HomPreserred Affection -2. The average American man is not a sentimentalist. He is a poor love- maker, at best, and when he tries to say flowery and gallant things to women he gets tongue tied, and feels as if he was about to choke on his Adam's apple. Hence, when he gets married he breathes sigh of relief, and says to himself: "Thank God. that's over, anyway and he proceeds to business, and to proving his devo tion to Kis wife by slaving to give her everything he can. very likely he never mentions again to her that he loves her, or tells her that he appreciates her devotion. and the sacrifices she makes for him, or that he blesses heaven for having bestowed her upon him for a wife, or that he believes her to be the paragon of her sex, but none the less, that is what he is thinking all the time, and the last thing on earth that he la look ing for is an affinity, or a romantic adventure. As for 'the painted up vampires, in floating chiffons,' they are no more to his taste than the highly spiced dishes in restaurants. Give liim good, plain home cooking every time, and a woman with clean face and lips that don't taste like a drug store, and sens!' ble clothes that she can do an honest day's work in. f Furthermore, there is this bitter sweet comfort for the woman who im agines that her husband will care less for her because she is losing her looks. and youthful figure after marriage a man rarely ever takes a real apprais ing look at his wife. That's hard on our vanity, but it is likewise our sal vation, for it enables a man who mar ries a golden headed little sprite- to go on thinking she is a golden .headed little sprite after she is gray-headed and weighs 178 pounds. Just ask your husband If your hat is becoming. He -grunts and says "yes"' without looking up from his paper, because he is seeing you, not in the hat you have on, but in a bonnet of twenty-five years ago that you had on when he courted you. I am convinced that women borrow a lot of unnecessary trouble about los ing their husband's love. The average man is domestic ny nature, ana nis in stinct is to be faithful. He has neither time nor inclination to philander. Be sides which he is bound to his wife by the strongest of all ties, mutual in terest. They have every thing in common, and you can not make a home together and bring children into the world, and smile over cradles and weep over little coffins without a bond helns? formed that is harder than any otffeV to break. But the way to keep a husband is not by a woman trying to keep young and beautiful, and flirting with him, and attempting- to preserve a romantic atmosphere. It is .by making him comfortable, -and being good pals with him. Do that and you can't lose him unless he is a born wanderer and nothing can keep a stray dog at home.

If we get to thinking of our own selves too much, we get all bound 1 up. We lose perspective and put a walled fence about our best aspira tions. And the more we brood, the less use we are to ourselves or any body else. It is a good thing to let yourself alone. You are sure to work out all right if you- do. We are able to create only as we look out and in and up! If you planted a seed and then.

The trapeeze performer thinks nothing of himself as he hangs from his dangerous height and thrills his watchers with his skilled body under perfect control. You see, he must center all that he is on the task he performs. And we must follow the same pro cedure in all that we do. We must keep traveling away from ourselves losing our identities in the things we do. If your task is important, follow thru it until the end. If it isn't im portant, get one that is. I know of a very wealthy man who is always-changing around everything he does. He never seems satisfied. He is restless and wasteful. He Is never satisfied to let a good thing alone and pass on to the makinfr of a new one. As a consequence, those who work for him get dissatisfied and he is alihe time losing good workers. Many years ago he was a creator today he is Just a muddler. TSry to remember, thai YOU are what you CO! ON SECOND' THOUGHT BY JAY E. HOUSES (From Philadelphia Public Ledger.) The unusual ever intrigues us. In the connection we wish to anoint Mr. E. S. Martin, editor of Life, with the pleasing unguent of soft words. Mr. Martin wrote an editorial paragraph about Caruso a very good paragraph it was too. He did not characterize Caruso's voice as golden or silvery. He did not mention his voice at alL It is interesting to know that the thing could be done. We find some gratifi cation in the fact that it was done. Once in a great while some writer weaves a new pattern. We wish to credit Mr. Martin with having done so. Bolshevism will make no converts in the Middle West by its concession of 14 per cent alcoholic content. Grown accustomed to its own home brew, the Middle West has come to regard 14 per cent alcoholic content as a "soft" drink. We are satisfied the drinkers of the Middle West would not go back to whisky and gin if they could. They want something that carries a wallop., The home brew of the Middle West, we shall add, bears little resemblance to its anemic relative of the Atlantic Coast. Thrown almost wholly upon its own resources, the Middle. West has mastered another art: that of making one drink do the work of five. A Suggestion for Mr. Wanamakcr's Column. Sir Why let Marshall Field- and Selfridge rave over bobbed hair and rolled-up socks when our own Mr. Wanamaker solved those problems be fore those pikers were hatched?

It is with pleasure we confer upon R. R. Li. the distinction he covets. But it's an empty sort of honor. We have made the column every day for more than twenty years; there's nothing in it. We forecast for "Getting Gertie's Garter," now on view iH Kw York after a tour of the provinces, a pros perous and extended season. Every body who thinks it means what it says will want to see it. The number is sufficient to keep a theater crowded many consecutive nights. For a thea tergoer who has a taste for the coarser epics of the stage is pretty sure to be credulous as well. We haven't an idea "Getting Gertie's Garter" means what it implies. We'd lay a little! at attractive odds that it is Just another of them things. The general disposition seems to be to weep over the woes of Mile. ,Len glen. It Is, all right with us: it is merely that we think the Jeremiad should not be too long 'protracted. We, therefore, suggest that those who feel the tears welling up witViin them retire to the sanctity of tneir own privacy and devote fifteen minutes to noiseless lamentation. That should satisfy the proprieties of grief and would clear the way for a consideration of other woes, of which there are many. Meanwhile, our own impressions of the Mile, is that she can sock, but can't take-It. The Stinger's In the Tail.

We've been off'n Sir Philip ever since we read his pen picture of the city room of news paper office. Maybe you remember it. He had two reporters and the so ciety editor sitting in front of a grate fire roasting chestnuts. Like the man who had the calf for sale, that one little thing spoiled Sir Philip for us. The news that Wayne B. Wheeler sat with the conference committee on the amendments of the Volstead act cheera us out of all proportion to the Importance of the incident.

We had a gay evening," and, neither Keith or I mentioned his visit to Mar garet. SBut Gloria came in the cixt afternoon and in her naive way re marked: "We had fire,"ks over at" .the house last night! Mother raised an awful howl because Uncle Keith wouldn't stay. She had asked Alice De Lisle and Clarence Butler in for cards, and they had to play cut-throat because Uncle wouldn't stay. My, you ought to have heard them!" I changed the subject. I had made up my mind I wouldn't listen to the girls when they talked about Mar garet, but it was more than I could do to stop them. I would never ask questions, but if they told me things that made it easier for me to make myself and Keith happy together? I would listen, then do as I had just done change the subject. "We had a nice time the other night, didn't we, Keith?" I said, speaking of the card party. "Very! And your little suppr was delicious. I told Margaret yesterday," Sunday, "thajt you would soon rival her as housekeeper." I coulA not help feeling pleased altho I well knew it would make Mar garet dislike me more than ever. She would" resent every word of praise Keith bestowed upon me. I had been verf l6nely that Sunday. It was a depressing day. It had rained hard in the morning, and the slow drizzle that followed had lasted until night. Annie was out for the day, no one called, and after my let ters home were written I had abso lutely nothing to do. I wandered from room to room, wondering If every Sunday the rest of my life was to be spent in loneliness because of Keith's promise to his sister. I must do all I could to become friends with her.' Then perhaps T would not be left so out in the cold. When Keith told me of what he had said to Margaret, I replied: "I am so glad you were pleased, Keith. I have tried very bard to learn all branches of housekeeping so I could entertain your friends in a manner of which you wouldn't be ashamed, as well as make you com fortable. I realize that Margaret is an expert housekeeper, and I want to be as near like her in that particular as I can." "That is very flattering to Margaret. I shall have to tell her. I wish you and she hit it off better." He sighed. "So do I. Keith. Perhaps we will some day." Erma Longstreet came in that morning. We spoke of the depress ing Sunday, and I told Erma of Keith's promise to spend each Sunda? afternoon and evening- with Margaret. "I never heard ot'such rotj The idea that you, his wife, should Te left alone evary Sunday while hegoes over and keeps his sister, who has two daughters and loads of friends, com pany!" "I agreed to it, Erma. I can t say a word ever." "Well. I'll tell you what you do. You have a standing invitation to spend Sunday afternoons and even ings 'with us. Jim will be delighted. You are a great favorite with him you know. "That will be Wonderful if yoiKare sure I will not be in the w-ay." "Don't be feilly. Vera Sanderson! Of course you won't be in the way. Jim often reads for hours he says it is the only time he gets to im provehis mind and we'll have the nicest talks." I told Keith. "That will be-very nice for you.' he had replied, but with so little en thusiasm I was rather surprised. "Won't it? Of course I haven't said anything because I promised I wouldn't, but it is horribly lonely here alone all day Sunday. Especially a day like yesterday. Jim will bring me home after dinner, and I shall enjoy myself with thetn." Nothing, more was-said, but after a bit it flashed over me that Keith was not as pleased as he pretended to be. Why? Could- it be that he felt a little jealous that I. too. should be away from home all Sunder after noon? Was he contented to leave me because he knew I would be alone? It sounded awfilly selfish, and Keith never had been that, but he was a man, and often in the past had done things he did not wish me to do. Perhaps this also was one of the things he thought not quite sauce f oj- the goose even tho it were sauce for the gander. I should soon know. The next Sunday when he prepared to start for Margaret's I said:- "I'll go as far as the bus with you, Keith." "Very well, get your hat on quickly. I am late now." He looked at his watch.- (Tomorrow Vera suggests that Erma invite Margaret.) JUST FOLKS BY EDGAR A. GUEST. MOXCMEXTS.

Mr. Brent arranged his tie with pre cision, brushed an, imaginary I speck from the shoulder of his immaculate 'black coat, opened a. window so that tne room mignt air wnue no umeu, and then with one glance around the four grim walls he closedthe door and walked slowly down stairs. On the floor below he hesitated as he always did when Miss Wren's door was open. He liked the cheerfulness of crimson fn rni-t t Vi vi,0. fhair tbe bie- Bos ton fern, the sewing table aad an J occasional glimpse of Elsie Wren, sew- ing or reading or feeding her bird J with little housewifely airs that i seemed strange in a fashionable board- ing house. But Elsie was not there, and her door was almost closed, so he did not absorb any of the hominess which he craved. He went down and dined with a dozen other lonely men and women who tried to make homes for them selves out of four walls in another j man's house, and" with more, or less j success. James Brent ate nis dinner In an abstracted manner. He never Joined in the general conversation about the long table, but occasionally sonje one would boldly address a remark to him, and he would answer in his deliberate manner, pleasantly, but reservedly. He was a lonely man. alone in the world, and lately he had grown to detest the four walls of his room on the third floor front. The very sight of Elsie Wreh's red carpet thrilled him he wanted a cheery room with a red carpet, a singing bird, a Boston fern, and a wicker chair with This thought came to him as he took his after-dinnen stroll down the street of the small town where he lived Over there on the hill was the university where he taught every day. He wanted a home to come to after the day's teaching, but he had noth ing to offer such a bright, charming little woman as Miss Elsie Wren, who was a music teacher as well as the favorite inmate of the boarding house. "If I had a home to offer," thought Mr. Brent, blushing painfully in the dark, "but I could not take a wife home to a boarding house, tho it has been done he added hopefully. Out of the darkness an automobile flashed its lights. In the sudden glare Mr. Brent saw a white and black sign nailed on a tree he saw a gate, a little lawn, and a small house then darkness absorbed the picture as the car disappeared. 'ha! A house to rent," mused the bachelor as he leaned on the fence. "A house to rent A week or two later he vent out for his Sunday afternoon stroll, oven taking Elsie Wren a block beyond the house. He had to hurry a little to catch upwith her swift pace. "Isn't it a lovely day?" she asked. He agreed, then he added nervously, "Are you in a hurry?" "Yes and no," she laughed. "Why? "I've been looking at a house would like your advice," mumbled Mr. Brent, opening the gate of the little place and closing it behind her. His fine, clean-shaven face was .set in tense lines; never had a greater problem confronted the gentle mathematician than this one. "FaTTcy your taking a place and keeping house," murmured Miss Wren, as she followed him into the wee hall. "Isn't it the cutest place one could have plants in that window,"'she said with the flower-lover's eagerness. "Yes, in any of the rooms the sun follows the windows all day," he heard himself saying, eagerly. "Awnings in the summer will make H cool -the rooms upstairs are charmingly ar ranged, but they are, of course, unfur ntshed. so are the kitchin and dining room." He opened the doors, bflt Miss Wren quickly furnished them in her mind, and the few suggestions she uttered betrayed the yearning of the single homeless woman for a real abiding place of her own. "One room is furnished," he said at last, when it was time to go. "Which one?" "The living-room. Tve had It fur nished like one I've admired and he opened the door of the south room, and Miss Elsie Wren stood dumbly upon the threshold while her fair face grew pink, pinker, pinkest. Here was a 'reproduction of her own cheery room at the boarding house a room furnished with odds and ends from her old home a crimson rug, gray walls, white woodwork, cloudy white curtains, a Boston fern or two, a cozy fireplace, a wicker chair, tables, a big easy chair, a masculine touch not in cluded in Miss Wren's room! "Oh how strange!" she breathed. "You like it?" he asked, looking worried. "I must!" tears were in her kind1 eyes. "We could be happy here -together.

His methods were crude; partly traditional, partly guesswork. His tests were few and inconclusive. Meat packing of today, as carried on by Swift Company, has changed all that. It is scientific. Nothing is left to chance; nothing taken for granted. The most painstaking care and attention are given to every step. Processes are worked out on a large scale with minute exactness. Methods are continually revised and improved. Cleanliness is insisted upon. Drastic, incessant inspections are the order of the day. Swift products are uniform, graded accord- ing to quality. Take bacon;' for instance. Swift Company set out years ago to make a delicious, savory bacon which should be uniformly excellent The result is Swift's Premium Bacon, always the same," always fa mously good. Today this bacon, wrapped, sealed and branded, has circled the world. Swift Company's system of distribution car ries it to places which the"town butcher" or the farmer could not reach. u i Si J lift s I W' if SWIFTS PREMIUM Swift Company, U. S. A. GOLF PROS.

For example, during the past two or three years a number of devices which substitute Kero- sene for coal in heating the home have been perfected and put on the market. f t s A large number of these burners have been installed in the ter ritory served by this Company. The result has been a heavy de mand for Perfection Kerosene, which has proved to be an ideal fuel. To meet this demaifd for Perfec tion Kerosene, the Standard Oil Company (Indiana has so ar ranged its distribution system as to be able to deliver to patrons Perfection Kerosene for heating purposes in any quantity which may be desired. The bigness and efficiency of this organization enables you to adopt kerosene as a fuel for heat- m& Xur home, with complete y r assurance that you always will be able to get this fuel in such quantities as you may require, whenever and wherever you may need it. -v Thus does a big company, con scious of its responsibility to the public, and to its 19,478 stock holders, quickly adapt its organ ization to changing conditions.

MORE FREIGHT INTOPEKA Kock Is!nii(l Shows Big Over Last Year. I ,1!.V!''"!1MIIU, "h w U ...L,i U The Rock Island's freight business at Topeka is showing a hiK increase ovei last year. Approximately 400 more cars were handled in July than durint; the same period a year ago and it is estimated that August wi!J show a further increase in business, on arrounl of this incicase and the h:t?he,r freight rates, it is said that the rci-eipjs have shown a pain of at least one-third in the last two months, and all of the work is beiner accomplished at th local freight of.fi re with three loss clerks than the office had last yea r. The demand for cars of all kinds Is heavy. On one day recently the Rock Island re,ce:ved forty carloads of flour from theTopeka mills and this class of business is averaging from fifteen to twenty cars dally. At least twenty five cars could be handled every day if it was possible to get the cars, offi cials said today. lTp until a short time ago most of the flour being shipped from Topeka was for export but practically all of it is now going to points within the United States. The thru freight business is also showing a Mg increase over last year and the company is unable to keep up with the demand for cars to move the wheat crop. The faet that cars are now tied up at terminals is to blame largely for this condition, it is said. The Rock Island's cantaloupe move ment, which was in excess of 10,000 cars between the latter part of June and August 1. is practically at an end hut shipments of citrous fruits and vegetables of all kinds are unusually heavy. 5oothinq &nd He&Iinq For R&shes and Ch&finq STEVE O'GRADV WIJ,1 TALK. j Topeka Ircw CInb Meeting Is Called j for Wednesday Night. j Membeis of the Topeka Press club will meet in regular conversational session Wednesday night.

TODAY'S BEAUTY HINT It is not necessary to shampoo your hair so frequently if it is entirely and properly cleansed each time by the use of a really good shampoo. The easiest to use and quickest drying shampoo that we can recommend to our readers is one that brings out all the natural beauty of the hair and may be en Joyed at very little expense, by dis solving a teaspoonful of canthrox which can be obtained from any drug gist, in a cup of hot water. This makes a full cup of shampoo liquid, enough so It ia easy to apply it to all the hair instead of just to the top of the head. This, when rubbed Into the scalp and onto every strand of hair. chemically dissolves all impurities. It is very soothing and cooling in its action, as well beneficial to both scalp and hair. After rinsing out the lather so created, you will find the scalp is fresh, clean and free from landruff. while the hair dries quick ly and evenly, developing a bright luster and a soft fluffiness that makes it seem" very heavy.

Baseball Tush! Football Pooh.- pooh! Horse shoes that's the real sport. To hole out a drive in one shot; to Knock the "bean" over the fence with the bases full and the score tied; to make an end run for a touchdown of course, there's some satisfaction In those things. 'But who wears a halo so brlKht as he who makes a double rin&er? Horse shoe enthusiasts from all over Kansas are sending entries to the Kansas -horae shoe pitchers tourna ment to be held at the Kansas Free Fair Tuesday. September 13: Besides the satisfaction and the glory of win ning the tournament, there will be a more substantial side "to the contest.

SECOND DAY OF INSTITUTE Practical J.r-etitrcs to Teachers at High' School Conference. The second day of the Shawnee county teachers' .professional institute opened, at the high school this morn ing at 8 o'clock, with a lecture by Fred A. Seaman, on "Teaching or Keeping School, Which?" In his-lecture this morning Seaman made plain the distinction between being just a school keeper and a teacher who Is enthusiastic about hi work, and, who is interested in the welfare of the pu pils under his cure. Judge W, L. HiiKgins, of the Kan bub industrial court, delivered a lec ture on "Looking Forward." Between and 11 o'clock this morning a general assembly of all. of the teachers present at the institute was held. At 11 o'clock, E. J. Hoenshel lec tured op the subject iof "How To Teach Grammar." At the conclusion of Hoenshel's lecture, recess was de clared until 2 o'clock. Miss Mary Patterson opened the afternoon session with a lecture on "Primary Methods In the- Schools." Miss Patterson brought out several new ideas in primary teaching in her lecture. .The final lecture of the day was given by Dpnald S. Jordan, who is a Hon of Josiah Jordan, the county su perintendent of Shawnee county. Jor dan lectured on "Boys' and Girls' flubs." It proved to be very interest ing and practical both from the stand point oT the teacher and that of the pupil. Jordan believes that the Boys' and Girls' elubs plan is the only prac tical solution to the difficulty that is often experienced by teachers in the rural schools of bringing about co operation between the boys and the girls who attend these schools. Tomorrow's program contains many interesting; questions, the discussion f which will be carried out by the mem bers of the faculty of the institute for the benefit of the attending teachers.

San Francisco, 'Aug. 23-It was an nounced at the closing session of the forty-eighth annual national conven tion of the Women's Christian Tem perance Union here today that Atlan tic City had been chosen as the next convention city. L New York, Aug. 23. Death un sealed the secret of the strange dual life of Frank Eugene Bortel, and two women are still shaking their heads today In sorrowful surprise. Both are leeallv his widows. Neither knew of the other's existence wntil After Bortel's heart had suddeniy failed, last Friday his wife, who had married him four years ago and had helped him build up the public serv ice freight bureau, looked thru his pa pers to see if there was a friend or distant lative who should be noti fied of his demise. She ran across a letter addressed to C. Folsom at South Bend, Ind. It ended with the line: "Give my love to sister Mary." Never Heard of Other. Mrs. Bortel had never heard of "Mary." Her husband had never spokfcp of any relatives. She wired FoIsoTn. He wired back: "Am. starting at once for New York with hift wife." The dumbfounded widow replied:. "Mr. Bortel's wife is here." But there arrived the next day Mr. Folsom and the sister of his wife, who for twenty-eight years had been known in Kansas City and South Bend, Indiana, as Mrs. Frank E. Bor tel. The dead man had married her in June,"lS93, when he was a hotel manager in Kansas City. She was Hattie Schwartz of Burlington. There never was a divorce. Nor 'was there the slightest hint to her that she was not the "only one" or that he had re married. Meeting Scene Painful. Painful "and lively was the scene that ensued when Mrs. Bortel met Mrs. Bortel. Wife No. -1 told No. 2 how for twenty years Bortel was a traveling salesman and at one time worked as a reporter on the Chicago Chronicle; how lie was always loyal, loving and generous; how, since he went ,to -NewTork five- years ago, he regularly paid her rent and sent her $100 month and only last, Christmas gave her an automobile. Wife No. 2 told No. 1 that she had gone to work almost immediately after Bortel started his bureau here, how they fell in love and went to Elkins, Md and were married. So sharp was the shock to1 "No. 1" that she collapsed and the physician ordered her to return at once to her Indiana home. Neither of the two women Is in clined to surrender ah iota of legal right. Both have engaged counsel. FINAL WOLFF .TESTIMONY Cross-Examination In Wage Case by Industrial Court. Final testimony in the Wolff Pack ing company wage caBe is being of fered this afternoon beforfe Commis sioner Noble. The testimony is in the form of cross examination by attor neys for the industrial court of ac countants for the packing company. Practically the entire closing testi mony relates to revenues and expenses of the Wolff company. Direct testi mony of the company s witnesses was presented several weeks ago. It is probable that the case will be con eluded as soon as the cross examina tion is completed. The Wolff com' pany; however, may decide to offer short rebuttal. Commissioner Noble of Wichita, was appointed by the supreme court to take testimony in the case. The action involves reasonableness of a re cent order by the industrial court af fecting wases, hours and working conditions of the company s employes. The case was appealed to the supreme court which held that the packing industry was- vested with a public trust and came under the scope of in vestigation by the labor court. A commissioner was appointed to take testimony and make recommenda tions to. the court as to the merits of the waee award. It is probable that Commissioner Noble's report will be submitted to the supreme court during the October term. TURKS CAPTURE BRITISH Reprisals Expected for Treatment Ac corded Unfortunate Pilots.

"Meditations on Mar riage." It is modernized and given Ameri can settings', but the story is one that will hold one even if it is thin in spots. Some wonderful acting and some mighty good locations make it a beautiful production. Manuger Uhirich has eliminated one of the bad places that have been noticeable in local movie programs. luring the time the orchestra takes its rest the piano music fills the gap. Wish others Would follow this lead. AT THE NOVELTY the Mil could be lots better, but there are some things in it that are Worth while. It opens with a very ordinary rapid cartoonist stunt, with a very ordinary ventriloquist following. The real stuff is presented by Irene and Doug las Carbrey, who, if they cannot sing, are able to really dance. LaPine and Emery have n skit filled with a lot of hokum, but one migiiiy gooi mt r impersonation, xne bifl closes with a trained dog act. Trained animals coming on is always the signal for this gink to "git up and git," so you can stay or do just as 1 did. AT THE ISIS, "The Woman God Changed" is a relief from the long line of married life tangles that have been in flicted upon a long suffering theater pub lic. It is one of those desert isle things that go rather good these hot days. The scenery and action change enough and the locations are so varied that one has no chance to lose interest. The story is a little out of the ordinary and the act ing in places is intense. Cannot understand why the usually strict censors let this get by. Sena Owen in some places shows nearly, everything she has. Gosh, what a dancer she Is. AT THE ORPHECM the "Too Much. Speed" picture brought nere ostensibly as a follow-up of the campaign staged by a local club, does not make a verv eoorf fol low, seeing that it lauds speeding instead of moralizing upon the dangers thereof, xne cast includes, besides the ever popu lar Wallace Held, Theodore Hoberts. and when these two are teamed in anything they make it mighty good light comedy. The story was taken from the Saturday Evening Post story of the same name, but does not follow it any too closely.

Kansas banks shtuld not bid unrea sonable rates for state deposits. That is the warning today from the state banking department in a letter sent te bankers by F. H. Foster, state bank commissioner." Commissioner Foster, in his letter, quotes an opinion by Justice John S. Dawson during his term as attorney general The opinion y states that banks may bid such interest rates as they desire to pay for use of state funds. In his letter today Commissioner Foster points out that too high inter est bids by banks will tend to -reflect on the standing of 'the banks. "In ef fect." says the letter which auotes and comments on the Dawson opiniarH tniopinlon says there is no linr.it as to the rate of interest which a bank may pay for state deposits, but we hope that banks will not pay a high rate. We think the bidding of an un reasonable rate, will reflect on the banks' standing." WIFE FINDS HUSBAND'S BODY Indication Cowley County Farmer Dragged: Beneath Harrow.

If you could see some of the inferior qual ity, cheapT shoddy, poorly made furs which are offered to us at "cheap" prices, but which we absolutely would not consider for one moment, you would realize the danger there is in buying furs from a price stand point alone.
