When the rubber plant droops. Its
leaves turn yellow and drop off. Mix
a teaspoonful Of mustard in a cupful
OF tot!ing water, eooI little and p6ur
on the soil in the pot; sometimes a
long, black hard-sheiled worm comes
to the top, and If this Is killed the
plant will usually recover.
Another treatment good for other
plants troubled with worms, is to bury
small piece Of fresh beef In the pot
near the surface, and the worms will
come up to eat 1t, when they can be
Killed.
Outdoor roses may be slipped as

Is taken to keep them moist.
Try using borax dissolved in hot
water to remove the spots made by

Fold clean cloth for a pad to use

VOTES FOR WOMEN
TOEND GANG RULE
Suffrage Victory Spells Political
Death for Mayor Gill, of Seattle,
and Other Machine Men.

SEATTLE, Wash, Nov. H.
The adoption at the state cleo
ton OF a constitutional amendment
permitting women to vote, will mean
the political death Of Mayor Hiram
Gill. Of Seattle. and the ultimate de-
livery of that city from the hands OF
gang rule.
The Gill administration was car
rled into Office last spring ON an
"Open town" Issue. backed by the ar
gument that reform restrictions were
hurting business"
1t was an open secret before the
election that public service and pri-
vate corporate interests were back
Ing the Gill campaign. After the cleo
ton the Gill administration was SO
open In It's corporation serving, so lax
in restraining vice, that a movement
was started for the recall OF Gill un
der Washington's recall election law.
Within 10 days the city comptroller
of Seattle will be officially notified
that women have been granted the
right to vote. AS soon as he Is noti-
fed the registration books Will be
open to women. Then they can begin
signing the recall petition, and when
the special election is held every
woman of legal ag elm the city will
be entitled to vote for or against HI
Gill.
How much chance Hi Gill will have
