Dear Teddy:
We learn a little every day, done
we Teddy?
Just as 1 was beginning to think
was the greatest politician in the world
l find that 1 have, to use slang ex-
preston, put my foot in it, You
know we both agreed that it would be
best for you to go over my speech Of
acceptance [ thought that you We're
pretty insiscent about that, despite the
fact that you said it wouldn't make
much difference, but at the time
couldn't possibly see any harm in it.
But now my mail is filled with let
tiers from angry people who say that
you shouldn't have had anything to
do with the letter. / have had Car
penter sub divide these letters and
find three distinct classes of kickers.
The first class, which is a little the
largest, are those who seem to think
that | should have written my own
speech and only allowed you to read
il after il was printed in the papers.
These people seem 20 think that
either am or ought to be capable Of
writing a speech and delivering it on
my own hook-although where they
ever got such an idea as that is more
that / can tell. They forget that you
have had more experience in that line.
The second class and of these there
are many and exceedingly angry, is
that Wall street bunch whom my
brother Charley told | was all right.
1t seems that they have picked up the
idea-kind of absorbed it. as it were
that when l was nominated it marked
Che beginning of the end of one Theo-
dore r. The third class. and these let
tiers are chiefly written on stationery
bearing the imprint of the United
States, write that it was all right 10
show the letter TO you and get your
advice on it but that we should have
been careful to keep the information of
thiS transaction in certain select chan
nels. The postmasters and landoffice
men who are expecting reappointment
seem to have the idea that we should
have played the game" better.
1 have tod Hitchcock to prepare
different kinds of answers to the vari-
Gus letters and maybe we can get them
all pacified before election time, any
how.
| wish that you would tell me what
you did with the various factions Of
the party when you were running-how
YOU kept them from tearing each other
10 pieces. Everywhere I have been or
heard from il is the same thing, and
Hitchcock is kept busy trying to keep
me from taking sides. You know when
Il ow-republican comes to you with
his tale of woe and his promise of sup
port if YOU will only help him put
Tom. Dick or Harry on the bum. it is
awfully hard not 10 say Yes" My
idea was to side in with all of them,
but it seems as if somebody leaked
and Hitchcock gave ME positive or
ders to confine my remarks entirely
to 'Roosevelt's policies" and the ad-
ministration of justice l wouldn't
mind doing this, of course. if I could
get the other republicans-T believe
YOU call them the rank and file-to
talk about the same things. but in New
York all that l can hear is something
about that man Hughes. 1t seems that
half of the republicans want him to

The modern physician always has his
eye out for bacteria. 1t matters not
where this infinitestimal worker in
pathology chooses to secrete himself;
or what field it seeks to make exclu-
Sively its own; the modern medicO is
hot on the trail and the germ family
is Immediately on the defensive. The
doctor, with disinfecting exterminator,
wherever that may be.
The latest hiding place of bacteria,
as announced by the London Lancet,
and discussed at considerable extent
by electrical engineering Journals, is
the mouthpiece Of the telephone The
London doctor became suspicious of
the fact, and the test was made at
one of the postoffice public telephones.
The mouthpiece was swabbed out with
a disinfecting sponge; and the pro-
ceeds were administered to a couple
of little guinea pigs. One of these was
killed in tWentythree days; and on
post-mOrtem examination there were
pronounced signs Of tuberculosis The
other pig was killed four days later,
and on the second examination the ev-
licences of tuberculosis were more pro-
nounced than in the first.
1t is held that this double expert
ment proves beyond doubt that the
germs of the great white plague lurk
in the mouthpieces of public tele-
phones; and from the London medi-
cal standpoint, at least, the sponge
saturated with disinfectant should be
part and parcel of the telephone equip
ment. 1t appears that this opinion has
gained ground, from the fact that daily
disinfection of the telephones at the
London stock exchange is a feature of
the service now insisted upon. AS the
germ nervousness of the human race
goes, the position of the London doc
tors is not unreasonable.
But now must follow that course Of
education which will convince the av
erage man that death daily assails him
from the mouthpiece of his telephone;
and with this education must come
the inventive genius who will present
the world with the automatic self
disinfecting telephone" warranted to
be the graveyard of every germ that
shall have the hardihOod to invade
its mouthpiece-the adjustment with
the only original trademark; the "be-
ware of limitations brand, in the use
of which, alone, is there assurance of
good health.
Whether or not We go to unwarrant-
ed lengths in this germ matter is an
open question in the minds of many
who remember the aged and healthy
people of former times, when the world
went gleefully on its way regardless
of germs. But, all things considered,
it appears that the germinologist has
rather the better of the argument; and
that his Iolorous note of warning
should not be sounded in vain. 1t is
just as we'll, perhaps, for the world to
commend itself to his guardianship
And assuredly this latest feat of chas-
ing the bacterial enemy of man into
the recesses of the telephone mouth
piece. where one dash of the disinfect-
ing swab may accomplish humiliation.
is proof of his ability to protect.

TAFT'S VISIT TO OYSTER BAY:

Mr. Tafts visit to Oyster Bay is
further evidence that Theodore Roose
Welt is the actual manager of the re-
publican campaign.
Surely the republican candidate for
president needs no help from Mr..
Roosevelt in writing letter of accept
ance. Mr.. Taft knows what the Chicago
platform says and what it Omits. He
pable of expressing his thoughts as di-
rectly and clearly as any man in public
life. He knows what My Policies are
and must have we'll defined notions as
to how far he can conSpicuOuSly in
dorse them. And he certainly requires
no lessons in constructive statesman
ship from Mr.. Roosevelt.
In going to Oyster Bay Mr.. Taft is
plainly seeking practical political ad-
vice from the Great Boss of the repub-
lican party-from the man who named
the candidates, who framed the plat
form, who steam-rolled the conven-
ton, and who intends to manage the
campaign.
The visit is not altogether fortu-
nate. One of Mr.. Taft'S greatest weak
nesses in the campaign lies in the fact
that thousands of voters regard him as
a mere echo Of Roosevelt. Many of
them hoped that after he was DOmin-
ated he would subordinate the ROOse-
welt part Of himself and present the
real, Taft. Their prejudices are not
likely to be softened by the knowledge
that Mr.. Taft felt it necessary to al
low Mr.. Roosevelt to edit his letter of
acceptance before giving it to the pub
lic.-New York World

for applying the polish or polishing the

this purpose. Windows may be busted
with d clean feather brush, though
cheesecloth is good for polishing them;
also soft tissue paper or crumpled
newspapers. If heavy furniture can
not be removed from a room, protect
the pieces with sheets. A soft whisk
