Disturbance Of Nervous SYSTEM
Jumping off and on cars is believed by
some scientists to be responsible for
many Of the most serious nervous de-
rangements of the day. The jolt causes
spinal disorders, which upset the entire
nervous system. Mere slips of the YER
tebrae from their true position, one
upon the other and the strain brought
to bear in consequence upon the liga-
ments and muscles binding them to-
gether, occur first from these innumer-
able poundlngs of hard heels against
adamant pavements and often lead to
far-reaching consequences.

WANTS THEIR NAMES.
F. ]. Lynch Insists on Knowing What
MiIkmen Use Formaldehyde.

To the Editor of the State Journal:
1t again appears that Food Inspector
Farnsworth will give to the public the
names OF those dealers who have been
placing formaldehyde in milk to pre-
serve it, IF they do not cease to do so.''
Will this official kindly give to a long
suffering public some reason for with
holding those names now? Ever since
this same official has been in office
we have been assured that at some flu
ture time dealers who have violated
the law by adultera ton, short weights,
etc, would be exposed. The adultera-
ton will continue and the short weights
will exist, but the public will never
hear further unless some new evil
arises when we will again have more
assurances" If the. public are suffer
ing fNom FRAUDULENT practices on the
part of dealers E'arnSworth should eth
er advise the public or he should quit
drawing money from the public for
services which he is afraid to perform.
What authority can this official give
for deliberately shielding wrongdoers?

New York, Sept. 1.-The initial step
toward the presentation to Sir Thomas

our friend and now our guest, have not
won all hearts.

SAMSON ON TOUR.
Starts In Automobile Loaded
With State Fair Tickets.


Samson's state fair automobile start
ed on its tour today loaded with tickets
and premium lists. Watch for Sam
sons auto.
The automobile will cover the coun-
try within a radius of Is miles of To-
peka and will leave supplies of tickets
at the country stores to be sold in adj
vance of the fair at reduced rates The
farmers and stock men can secure
premium lists from the auto.
Tickets were put on sale in advance
of the fair last year and they proved
quite popular. For that reason the fair
management has decided to place a
limited number on sale this year. The
advance tickets have been placed on
sale at various Topeka stores today.
Two styles of tickets can be had, the
family tickets and the general admis-
sion tickets.
The family ticket is good for six adj
admissions can be used all at one time,
at six different times, all by one person
or by six different persons. The holder
can use them as he sees fit.
The general admission tickets are
good for one admission any day of fair
week. The price of them during the
advance sale will be 40 cents each. Dur
ing fair week the price of admission
will be 90 cents. Both the general adj
mission and the family tickets will be
on sale until September 10, four days
before the opening of the fair. After
that admission tickets must be bought
at the ticket office at the fair grounds.

PAINTING LACE A FAD.
Artistic Girls Find Color Adds to
Beauty of Fabric.

The fad for painting on lace gives a
chance to the girl who has more artis-
tic ideas than she has skill with her
brush.
A certain part of the design of the
lace is selected. and the color is lightly
applied. Care and lightness of touch are
all necessary for the amateur to sue
coed as well as the artist. 1t is the cas-
lest thing in the world to bring OUT
the roses and violets and the different
wreaths and garlands which appear in
the laces which adorn everything.
A white silk parasol with lace medal
lions can be made much more beautiful
by adding color to it in this way. A
simple little gauze fan with lace motifs
set in becomes artistic if the tiny flow
ers are painted. A pair of pink silk
hose with lace insets is worth double
the price if the small sprays of arbutus
in the design are just touched with
pink.
Even the wash laces are painted in
stead of working out the design in col
and embroidery. The painting is a far
less tedious process. and for thin gowns
is a great deal more beautiful
To make it practical for trimming
wash gowns, the girls at the art in
stitute use the little package dyes, which
are indelible, instead of paints, for their
colors. and for a mixer, gasoline. is
used. adding a little at time. as fast
as it evaporates This makes a color
which is heavy enough for anything SO
transparent as lace. and which will
stand the Tubing process.
Care should be taken in selecting
lace with a motif whose color can be
carried out to combine artistically with
that of the gown.-Chicago Tribune
