Sherman Eclipsed.

Vice President Sherman has been
touring the west in a series of speeches,
delivered under the auspices of the Re
publican congressional committee
However, with President Taft circling
into the Northwest and Colonel Roose
Welt stumplng from one populous cen
ter to another populous center, Sunny
JIM did not have the wide publicity
he otherwise might have had.
The congressional candidates have
been very busy in their own right,
making speeches and renewing ac-
quaintances. but with an exception or
two, as noted, the big campaign orators
have not yet gotten into the swing.
A few went into Vermont where the
election has already been held and the
two Republican incumbents returned
for another two years. During the
past week, there has also been consid-
cradle movement of orators into Maine.

Empire State Struggle.

The State campaign IN New York,
promises TO lie of almost as much IN
terest as the congressional campaign.
There Will be fast and furious work
all during the month of October. The
loss Of the Empire State would be a
serious blow to the Republicans and
also TO Colonel Roosevelt. The party
will not yield without the most deter
mined struggle. Its leaders through
out the country would rather see any
other State 90 Democratic than New
York: for Democratic New York has
always given the Democrats great hope
of carrying the ensuing presidential
election.
Furthermore New York State Will
have a large influence this year IN de
termining whether the next house of
representatives is to be Republican,
There IS a dozen Republican districts
in that state which might slough off
to the Democracy. \ big Democratic
wave IN New York always IS felt in
CONNECTICUT and New Jersey, which
two States might and half a dozen
Democrats to congress IN the place Of
Republicans.

She Didn't Mind.

A girl with Gibson face and Il
green feather in her hat boarded Il
Chestnut Street car the other after
noon. She carried something in a
paper sack under her arm. The car
was crowded with passengers and no
one offered to rise
The girl looked worried but she bit
her lips and grabbed at Il strap. Just
then the car lurched, the girl made
a wild effort to keep on her feet and
threw her bundle straight in large
mans lap. There was a peculiar grind
ing sound in the sack and then some
thing seeped out that looked suspic-
iously like the yellow of an egg.
What in the thunder is this stuff
- he started to say, when she
sweetly remarked as she chung to the
strap:
"Oh, never mind manking apologies.

eggs and the man looked so savage
that no one dared laugh.-LOuisyille

THE FLOATING SUMMER HOME
one Couple Made Investment Which
Paid Both in Comfort and in Cash.


If you cannot leave your business
10 obey the call of the wild, stick to
your business-and call the wild TO
you. 1t is simple, practicable and
cheap. Build a floating home.
Hark to the case OF man who did.
lie and his wife tired of the usual sum-
mer-sticking it out in the heat till his
annual two weeks vacation time came,
and spending that, as well as his win
ter savings, at a resort where home
comfort was sacrificed for the mere
TACT OF being in the open. So they
built housemoat anchored it off
Observation-Disclosures (they were
New Yorkers), and moved in.
Every morning the man and his
wife had a dip in one of the worlds
|lovliest rivers, breakfasted outdoors
with the scene and air around them
for inspiration and tonic; then he took
the ferry to the subway and was at
business in twenty minutes. That was
early in June. In July he had his
usual two weeks vacation. during
which he spent days as well as nights
on the river, and when it was over
and work in the office began again,
the city heat did not sweat out of
him the benefit received, for he had
the houseboat, where every breath
meant health and peace. AS for his
wife, she had none of the city'S mis-
cry of summer, nor yet the separation
which so many husbands and wives
endure
Now there is Il prOverb about saying
the piper, so after four months of sum-
mer that strengthened and gave both
much wholesome joy. this man sat
down to count the cost in comparison
with summer in the city with the
usual two weeks vacation.
lis boat. built of the best mater
ials &c by IL feet, cost $500 unfurnsh-
ed, being then outfitted from their
city home. AS the 5000 was primary
cost. he did not figure that in any more
than he figured in the cost of furnish
ing his apartment in calculating its
expense for the summer. Painting,
hauling, towing. and landing for the
season cost $50. He added $50 for
oud jobs, cleaning, stove and lamp OIL
Total. 500.
Then he figured on the cost of their
usual summers in the flat, with two
weeks vacation. The fiat was s43 a
month. janitOr, cleaning woman. and
gas bringing it up to about $:13 or $212
for four months. Their two weeks
at a resort invariably cost at least
summer at least $50 went on roof
gardens and Sunday trips in the eff
fort to flight the heat. The total was
$500. During the four months on the
household they had sublet the Hat at Il
loss of $40, which, added to the 800.
totaled up to $140 as against S3G2, or
1929 to the good. Three such sum-
mers, he considered, would pay the
original cost of the household in say
| ings, and would not mean mOnOtOny.
