A True Democracy.

Not everybody has thought of the diff
ference between a true democracy and
a representative government. In a true
democracy the people themselves gov
err. They vote on laws and measures
to be passed, and themselves elect such
officers as are necessary. In a repre-
sentative government the people elect
representatives who make, or are sup
posed to make. such laws as are needed
and transact other public business. 1t
will be seen, therefore, that the United
States is q representative government,
not a democracy.
The trouble with a representative gov
eminent is that its representatives are
apt to forget the interests of those who
elected them for their own interests and
to represent only themselves. The def
milton of public Office in the mind of a
practical politician is a place created to
give a living to the politician.
The only trace Of a really democratic
government among civilized nations to-
day is to be found in Switzerland in the
two legislative features known as the
initiative and the referendum. In the in
itiative, so called, body of private citi-
zens may prepare laws and propose them
for enactment. The referendum is, how
ever, more important because its adop-
ton has been seriously proposed in other
countries. W. d. McCracken mentions
in The Cosmopolitan magazine that it is
a survival of the ancient Swiss landsge-
meinde, where all voters assembled, and,
opening the meeting with solemn prayer,
in a few hours had transacted all the
public business necessary for the next
year.
Under the Swiss referendum all laws
of great Importance are referred to tie
whole body of voters for their rejection
or adoption. Sometimes the voters
themselves, or a body Of not less than
10000 Of them, demand by petition that
a measure shall be thus referred. Again
the legislative body decides that a
law shall be thus referred. Then il
is published, and copies thereof are
distributed among voters. Ninety days
are allowed to pass. If in that time
10000 voters, or eight cantons, have not
petitioned for a popular vote on the bill,
then it becomes a law without the pop
ular vote.
What boon to our country it would
be just now if the silver and tariff ques-
tons could thus be settled on the refer
endum principle by vote of the whole
peoplel 1t would be marvellous in
ducement to voters to study into the
real merits of both questions.

taking her to the nice home he had prom

ordered her to work as domestic in a

In washing embroideries done with
crewels on a foundation of linen or
crash, the first time bran water should
always be used to set the colors. To
prepare the water pour a gallon boiling
hot over Suound of bran. Let the bran
soak in the water day, stirring it oc-
casiona1ly, then strain it well. Put the
article to be washed in the water when
it is 1ukewarm, pressing and squeezing
it through the water until clean. Do
not think of wringing dry, but press out
all the moisture possible and dry in a
warm place without exposure to sun
light. When it is still damp, lay the
right side on flannel and press on the
wrong side. Use only the best crewels
if you expect them to wash wen.-St.

TO REMOVE IRON RUST.
A Process Which Does Not Injure the Most
Delicate Fabric.

A Process Which Does Not In1ure the Most
Delicate Fabric.
To remove iron mold, or rust, from
any white cotton, linen or other vege-
table fiber, the following process is the
best, as it does not injure the fabric:
The spots are stretched over an earthen
plate and moistened. Salts of lemon
are then strewn over the marks and
rubbed in with a bone or wooden
spatula until the stain is removed, aft
erwards thoroughly rinsing in warm
water to remove the acid. Nearly ali
stains and dyes will be discharged by
oxalic acid; therefore, careful usage is
necessary. Salts of lemon, salts of sor
rel, oxalic acid, ETC., is a very danger
Gus poison, and should be used with
due caution.
Mildew is removed by first brushing
off any loose mildew. Then little
common salt should be rubbed in, aft
erwards literally sprinkled with pow
dered chalk, and thoroughly moistened
with clean cold water. After this the
articles should be slowly dried in the
open air, and then rinsed, and if the
marks are not removed the treatment
should be repeated, possibly several
times, but in the end the mi1dew will
be removed.
Taken all together, curtain dressing
is not hard work, and may well be done
at home in the majority of households,
as what is most required is patience
sufficient to secure careful manipula-
ton. It is certain, also, that curtains
carefully treated in cleaning and get
ting up have their durability much in
creased; indeed some lace curtains
have passed through my hands annual
ly for the past ten years, and are now
sound and good, but they have never
been framed.-St Louis Republic.

strip Of stiff paper three inches wide
by seven long, also covered with India
silk. For the outside, nine strips of the
crepe paper are cut 16 inches long and
three-quarters of an inch wide, and Is
strips the same width and 81 inches
long. The strips are laced evenly to-
gether, as seen in the illustration, till
all but four of the cross-pieces on both
ends are used, and these pieces are in
terlaced with brass rings. It is simple
in the extreme, but the effect is beauti-
full. AS this part is open work, the
cardboard foundation must be covered
plainly with the crepe paper or, if pre-
ferred, contrast in both material and
color would be pretty. These card
board foundation pieces are, of course,
first glued to piece of paper for the
back, or hinge, of corresponding size to
that already given for the inside; and
the smoothly plated work is fastened
to the foundation with knot of blue
embroidery silk in the center of the
alternate blocks; the edges are then
turned in neatly and pasted or glued
in place, and outside and inside are
glued together. On the front edges
the ends of the strips are secured with
embroidery silk, which is worked into
the edge in coarse buttonhole stitches
and knotted around every strip of pa
per, giving sort of tassel effect.
This sort of work would make very
pretty wall or newspaper pockets, or
cover for boxes; and could, in fact, be
turned to multitude of decorative
uses-Demorest's Magazine.

KIRK'S REPRESENTATIVE DELUGED
WITH LETTERS and PERSONAL
CONGRATULATIONS ON BE-
HALF OF JAMES s.
KIRK & co.
1913 PEOPLE REPORT FAVORABLY.
After Having Tried Kinks New
Discovery.

The sale of Kinks Rain Water Maker
in Topeka amounted to over 500 pack
ages Saturday.
"How can you account for such de-
mand for a new preparation" said a
prominent gentleman yesterday to a re-
porter. 81 can only account for it in one
way: I have been detailed on behalf of
James 8 Kirk & Co. ever since they first
came to Topeka, and that this prepare
ton contains such merit that the people
simply feel that they must have it."
"Oh, no." said the reporter, "the sale
does not seem to be limited to any one
particular locality, but I find it in all
sections of the city-a universal and
enormous demand. That Kirk is honest
is now proven; that he is generous is
shown from the fact that the price of one
of the large two-pound packages of
Rain Walker Maker has been put at the
mere nominal figure of % cents."
