turned to Topeka today after a cam
paign over the state, and said in CONVEX
sation with a reporter for the State
Journal: a.
Il believe that Prohibition vote
for the candidate oFfEhe state ticket will
amount to twice wha& it was in the last
encouragement at many places in. the
state. believe thah hthe heaviest vote
for the Prohibition ticket win come from
the southern counties of the state, ex-
cepting the tier next to Missouri. We
will also get good vote along the
northern boundry counties
There are 100 towns in Kansas where
open saloons are running. [ believe that
the state administration can suppress
the Joints and saloons. Governor Stan
ley has not even given prohibition his
moral support. Attorney General God
ard has written a few weak letters tell
ing what he would do. but he has done
as little as possible The state officia Is
have the authority to regulate violations
OF Jaw in all parts of the state It is
bringing up a similar question to the old
state sovereignty theory to say that each
county IS a law unto itself so far as the
enforcement of law is concerned We
settled the state sovereignty theory by
the civil war We have nothing to hope
for from the old parties: of this 1 am
firmly convinced" !"

could for the sake OF his family hut II
finally came to the pass where we simply
had to throw him overheard. I understand
ne Int1mates that some of the mana gers;
of the Prohibition party's campaign tried
to break into his office to see what was
being printed in his paper. Tn sure I
don't know what we Should want in his
office There's nathing there that would

Chicago, Oct. n.-Twenty-five thou
sand tons of bituminous coal are burn

dock in Waukegan and the fire is re-

gin, Joliet and Eastern slip at the har-
Dor, and are among the largest on Lake
Michigan. The coal brings IS per ton

had the affidavits filed but still the
court refused him a change of venue
but went ahead and tried him and sent
him to the Kansas penitentiary. He
claims that the court had no jurisdic-
ton over him and that the warden or
the Kansas penitentiary is therefore il
legally holding him. The supreme court
says that the action of the Kay county
court in refusing a change of venue was
an error and a new trial would have
been granted if properly asked for, but
that the grounds of complaint are not
sufficient to release Justus on a writ of
habeas corpus.

Girls do not appreciate the advan-
tages of walking as they should. 1t
has been said by an eminent physician
that walking Is the exercise most con-
ducive to physical beauty in woman.
Tennis Is supposed to be good exer-
else, but 1t has tendency to lengthen
the arms and also to make the height
of the shoulders uneven. Cycling,
when much practiced, renders women
rather awkward in their walk. They
acquire a sort of plunging motion that
is not altogether graceful, says Wom-
ans Life.
Croquet does not give the continuous
exercise of the whole system that
walking does. OF all the ways In
which women take physical exercise
there Is none so conducive to health
and beauty of form as walking. Per
haps the reason why systematic walk
ing for healths sake is not more popu-
lar is that 1t is so cheap and so con-
venient. We generally prefer that
which costs money and is otherwise
not obtainable by all. As an easy and
safe contributory to health walking
ought to be perseyered In in all but the
worst weather.

A Message From the Pulpit.

In the old days, aud probably to some
extent at the present day, the Scotch
clergyman was very much the pastor
of his flock He looked out for the
big and little needs of their souls. and
also of their bodies. Dean Ramsay, In
his book, Scottish Life and Charac-
ter" tells a story youched for by one
of his correspondents as authentic.

Whitburn, grandfather of the author
Of "Rab and His Friends" was travel
ing in the early part of last century on
a small Shetland pony to attend the
summer sacrament at Haddington Be

The Linen Closet.

The well regulated linen closet
should have its napkins and clothes ar
ranged In sets, matching in quality
and design. 1t Is a good idea to ar
range the napkins folded on the folded
cloth and tie them In a fiat package
with a ribbon fastening around from
all Sides Care should be taken that
household linen, not only napery, but
towels and bed linen, is rotated in
service. Sometimes the bottom Of the
pile of towels sheets or pillowcases is
not touched for months, the upper
pieces of the piles being conveniently
taken off constantly and replaced by
themselves as they come from the
weekly laundering. 1t will be found
much more economical to take them
In turn, as in this way they wear
alike and much longer than If in con
slant use.

We suppose all the women who
take care of a family and do their
own work are pretty tired come
night, but we are specially sorryfor
those who don't feel rested in the
morning.

seems an awful burden"
owe think Vinol will help you,"
said our clerk. "Our folks at
home use it. We have such faith
in it that we will pay the money
back if it doesn't help YOU"
She took bottle of Vinol home,
and has since bought another bottle.
Vmol was sold last year on the
same guarantee How many Gre
funds were there, do you think :
Less than two per cent.
In other words, Vinol did sue
cessful work in ninety-eight cases
out of one hundred.
For two great classes, those
who can't seem to gain strength
and those who are tired at nothing,
we say; TRY Vinol on our guar
antee."
For weak women, nursing moth
ers, old people, and puny children
we have found nothing to equal
