DOCTOR
ADVISES WOMEN TODEVELOP
Says the New Method Increases
the Bust Measurement and
Rounds the Arms and Neck.
(BY CLARA BELLE M

Speaking from my own personal ex-
perience and from observation of many
whom I have successfully treated in
the past two years, should say that
Madame Moneaux really owed her
great success as a beauty specialist to
the use of a simple preparation which
is used exclusively to develop the bust,
arms and neck. I became acquainted
with this formula and have used it
ever since, much to the delight of pat
rons. 1 now buy the ingredients in
wholesale quantities, although any well
stocked drug store can supply them.
IF your bust lacks development or
firmness you can rely on both increase
and firmness from the persistent use of
the following: Obtain of the druggist
two ounces of glycerine and one ounce
tincture Cadomene compound, mix and
let stand several hours; then add a tea
spoonful of borax and three ounces OF
rosewater. Shake we'll. and apply to
the neck, arms and bust, rubbing and
massaging until 1t is completely abb
sorbed; then wash the parts treated
with very hot water and soap and dry
thoroughly. Apply the treatment
morning and night regularly for sew

require and the most exquisite firm

MRS. M'kENRY HERE.

Mrs. Myra McHenry. who has
preached more crusades in Kansas
than ever Peter the Hermit did in
Europe, is in Topeka On a speaking

COLLIDE IN A FOG.
Two Trolley Cars Crash Together
Injuring so People.

Philadelphia, Sept 2S.-Fog was
responsible today for a head-on col
lision between two cars on the South
western Traction company's line be-
tween this city and Chester, in which
about SO persons were injured, sew
eral probably fatally.
A car leaving Philadelphia with
workmen employed by the Baldwin
Locomotive Co, at its out of town
plant and known as the Baldwin
Tripper" was speeding along the
single track with ~ men on board,
when suddenly a car coming from
Chester, doomed up in the fog. Be
fore brakes could be applied there
hurled in every direction and both
cars were wrecked. Among the most
seriously hurt were:
Edward Smith, leg cut off and
shock; may die.
William Mullen, ribs crushed in;
may die.
Philip flanagan.
George A. Caffrey.
Harry Potter.
N. Poscovitch, all hurt internally.
Hiram Neill and John P. Cham
bers, broken legs.
In addition a score or more are in
various hospitals with broken arms
and other injuries Most of them are
suffering from slight cuts.
The Baldwin Tripper" had waited
on the siding for the regular Phila-
delphia bound car to pass and then
proceeded toward the Baldwin works,
the crew unaware that an extra car
was coming toward them on the same
track As a heavy fog prevailed
collision was inevitable.

ONE X. U. GAME CANCELLED.
Ottawa and Lawrence Elevens Not to
Meet This Season.

Lawrence. Kan. Sept. ga part
of the Jayhawkers' gridiron schedule
has been broken. w. G. Lansdon,
manager of athletics has been notified
that the game which was to have been
played with Ottawa university Satur
day, October 8, on McCook field. was
Cancelled. Ottawa does not expect to
be in shape by week from Saturday,
and this was it's reason for canceling
the game. At first Coach Kennedy
thought it would be satisfactory all
around. for he proposed that the Nor
NAL of Emporia shift its game from
Saturday of this week to October B.
When the Normal management was
asked If it would do this, it imme-
diately sent word that this could not
be, because it plays the second game
of its schedule October 8.
Since the Normal is determined to
play Kansas on Saturday of this week,
the Jayhawker management will try
to schedule a game for October with
one of four colleges-William Jewell.
College of Emporia, Salina Wesleyans
or st. Marys. A few of the boys were
of the opinion that since Ottawa drop
ped out, no game should be scheduled
to take it's place, but Coach Kennedy
and the athletic manager believe that
the team should play a game next
week

SUFFRAGE IN ENGLAND.
Discussed by One of Its Advocates
Visiting in New York.

New York, Sept. 23.-The beautiful
young English worker for woman suf-
frage, Mrs. Philip Snowden, wife of
the member of parliament from
Blackburn, is in this city, the guest of
the Rev. DIR. Charles F.. Aked of the
Fifth avenue Baptist church and his
wife. 1t was through DR.. Aked that
she first became interested in public
questions in England, and for the last
three years she has given her time
entirely to the suffrage propaganda.
In England and Scotland she has
made reputation for eloquence. Mr.
Snowden shares his wife's interest in
woman suffrage and has made two eff
fective speeches in favor of it in the
commons.
Speaking of her work Mrs Snowden
said:
at is the fundamental question of
the times. do not mean that woman
suffrage will accomplish a great deal
at once-that the millennium Will ar
rive Things will go on much as they
do at present, but I do think 1t will
alter the relation of the sexes and all
that means-an Improvement in wo-
men and in the way in which their
duties are regarded by men. There is
so great difference between the Amer
lean and the English point of view in
this regard that the latter can hardly
be understood here The idea in Eng
land that the woman is the property
Of the man dies hard, and it is shown
every day that the absence of political
power in women gives men a feeling
of contempt for them"
In answer to a question regarding
the suffragists and suffragettes in
England and their relations to each
other, Mrs. Snowden said:
"They work into each others
hands. One society educates, and the
other does the wicked things"
This was said with an appreciative
smile.

of Harper, Barber, Kiowa, Comanche.
Clark, Mead, Ford, and Gray counties.
T. A. NoftZger is the senator. Judge
Frank Price of Clark is mentioned as
a candidate. The district is likely to
be machine.
The big Thirty-eighth district, COM
prising a block of IS counties in the
southwest corner of the state, now rep
resented by Fred Dumont Smith, will
be the scene of a big fight. Senator
Smith was given a black eye in his own
county, but he will try to get back in
the race in spite of it. w. NJ. Kinnison,
representative from Ffnney county, is
also being urged to get into the race.
There are likely to be a number of 9TH
ers, but the probability is that the dis
trict will elect some machine man to
succeed Senator Smith who has been
on both sides.
The Thirty-ninth district, now repre-
scented by Charles Buschow, is compos-
ed of Cove, Trego, Ellis, Rocks, Ora
, ham, Sheridan, Decatur, Rawlins,
Thomas, Logan, wallace, Sherman and
Cheyenne. A. B. Jones Of Trego was
mentioned as a candidate before the
primary law was enacted, but he may
back up now that the convention is
knocked out. Buschow will probably
out a candidate before long who does
not represent any faction. The district
is regarded as doubtful.
District No. 40 consists of Smith,
Phillips and Norton counties. and is
reckoned as doubtful, but with square
deal tendencies. w. H. Haskell, the
persent senator will not be a candidate
and Chauncey Lewis of Phillipsburg
has boom for the nomination.

LOOK FAR AHEAD.
Interesting Contest for Places
in State Senate.
Square Deal Machine and Old
Machine Are Ready.
BUT LITTLE CHANGE.
Stubs Faction Hope to Gain
Enough Votes to Control.
Result of the Coming Primary
Somewhat in Doubt.

In sixteen of the Kansas senatorial
districts, it seems reasonably certain
that the Stubs machine known as
square dealers will win senatorial
nominations, while in fifteen districts
the chances are equally good for the
nomination of old machine senator's
There are nine districts in doubt
This seems to be the general con-
sensus of opinion among politicians at
the present time. but it is hard to
tell much about the situation.
The chief element of uncertainty
is the fact that all senators are to be
nominated by the primary election,
and it may turn out that the public
sentiment is. much stronger against
the old machine control than has
been supposed. or it may turn out
exactly the reverse, and against the
Stubs machine control
There is also the element of fac
tional bitterness to be counted on,
which may bring about the defeat of
many Republican nominees by the
votes of factional Republicans, who
prefer to send Democrats to the SEN
ate than Republicans of the opposite
faction. One faction will no doubt
be as ready as the other to knife op-
posing candidates. At the last SEES
sion there were three Democratic
senators. 1t would not be at all sur
pr1Slng II that number was consider
ably increased at the next session.
One thing is certain; that the fight
between the old machine and the
square deal or Stubs machine will
be most bitter in many of the sena-
torial districts, and each side will put
forward it's best men and make a des-
perate struggle. The question of
whether the people of the state ap-
prove or disapprove the course of the
senate majority is to be put on trial,
and each faction will seek 'vindica-
ton"
In the First senatorial district
composed of Brown and Doniphan
counties, A. L. Gilbert, the present
senator, will not again be a candidate
The chances are that Doniphan and
Brown will nominate a machine can
didate, If the Long crowd gets behind
Cy Leland for governor. Gilbert was
q Stubs square dealer, and this dis
trict means a loss of one vote to the
square deal faction.
