CREATING MUCH TALK
AND GREAT PRAISE
Surprising Good Being Done
in This Locality.

1t seems that everybody is talking
about Root Juice these DAYS. The
new medicine must have wonderful
curative merit or SO many local peo-
PIE would not be SO enthusiastic in
praise of 1t. When the scientist was
here he said: THE reason SO many
people get well after taking Root
Juice few weeks it that the Juice
contains in proper proportion the most
soothing, healing and strengthening in
gradients for the stomach, bowels,
bladder, liver and kidneys known to
the scientific world, by making the
blood-making and blood-filterfng or
gans healthy. Root Juice removes
many ailments The great remedy.
within the last few months, has made
SO many remarkable cures in Indiana
and Ohio that 1t is not surprising that
so many people here are buying it.
It seems to be wonderful for any trou-
bic Of the stomach, bowels, liver and
kidneys, and has proved its remark
able merits to scores of people here in
Topeka for bloating, beIching consti-
patton, sick headache and other evils
of bad indigestion. In rheumatic and
kidney troubles, also nervousness, it
is surprising how fast health is re-
covered under the juice treatment.
The people at the Arnold drug store
523 Kansas avenue, are well inform
ed in relation to the merits of the rem
edy and have very pleasant way of
telling all they know of it. Many that
took one bottle have returned for more
and said that Root Juice is the most
wonderful medicine on earth. 1t is
sold during the demonstration period
for 81 bottle or three bottles for
$3.50.

Sees Meat Go Higher if Roads
Raise Freight Rates.
Texas Cattlemen Attack the In.
crease on Stock and Beef.
AID WESTERN PACKER
New Tariffs Would Cypress Con
sumers in East, Is Said.
Other Items of General Interest
in Traffic World.

Washington, Dec. 3.-That the eff
feet of the proposed increase in freight
rates on live stock and dressed beef
would be to strengthen the control of
the western packing-houses over the
meat trade in the east and increase
prices was the opinion expressed by
Judge S. H. Cowan of Fort Worth,
Tex. during his testimony before the
interstate commerce commission.
Judge Cowan is attorney for the
Cattle Raisers association of Texas
and the National American Live Stock
association. His testimony was con-
fined to the probable effect of the pro-
posed new rates upon meat. He dwelt
with particular emphasis on what he
considered the inequality of the new
rates as applied to cattle on the hoof
and to dressed meats
Rates to East Cited.
The present rate on live stock out
of Chicago to the east is % cents per
100; on dressed beef it is As cents. It
takes two cars of live stock to make
one car of dressed beef. A fiat in
crease of cents per 100 pounds is
proposed on dressed beef and cattle
on the hoof.
Judge Cowan argued that the re-
suit of such an increase would be an
increase of 20 per cent in the rate on
live stock, and an increase of only 10
per cent on dressed beef from Chicago
dressed beef and live stock, he de-
clared, was further accentuated by an
additional increase of 8 Y cents in the
proportional rate between Kansas
City and st. Louis on all live stock and
meats bound for the east.
BY increasing the rate on live stock
at a greater percentage than the rate
on dressed beef the cost of the cattle
for the eastern slaughter-houses was
made greater than for the western
slaughtering Institutions, the witness
said, with the result that the consum-
ers would have to pay more for their
meat by reason of discrimination
against the eastern consumers.
Bar to Western Stock.
The further interest of the stock
man was aroused, the judge said, be-
cause such discrimination would
keep western stock out of the east
ern market and make the western
packing houses its only market
Judge Cowan presented figures to
effect of the new rates upon the pack
ers. From report by the union
stockyards of Chicago. Judge Cowan
read that AT per. cent of the 2,154.-
500 cattle which were received at Chi
cago in 1908 were sold and shipped
and export. The figures he said,
showed that the live stock shipments
for eastern slaughter had been grad
ually crawling up from 40.6 per cent
in 1905 to practically SO per cent now.
On one day in 1908, there were
shipped out of the Chicago union
stockyards. 6S1 carloads of live stock
to 1875 different cohsignees in $50 diff
ferent cities in nine different states.
This distribution, Judge Cowan con-
tended, insured in the cities where the
butchers do their own slaughtering,
relief from the high price of meat, but
the proposed rates would curtail such
shipments.

Happy Time in Store for Topeka
Children.

Every Topeka store that features a
holiday line has put it's stock of wares
on display and the advance Christmas
trade is assuming unusual proportions
Many of the stores are carrying q
larger stock of Christmas wares than
in former years and are anticipating
rush the final two weeks or ten days
of the holiday season.
The aeroplane, with all its frills, its
endless scientific history and intricate
novelty. has completely swamped the
Christmas toy shop this year. No child
will omit to ask the good, old Nick to
please bring an airship." Not If they
have had peek into toylands of the
department stores. There are aero
planes large and small. simple and
complex, and they can be purchased
from rs cents up to $35, the latter be-
ing an electrical attachment that con-
tinues to fly as long as the current is
on. Some of the models shown are
imported.
Passing of Teddy Bear.
Tired Of the Teddy bear. once so
popular; disguised with the freak Bill
likin, and having no use whatever for
Billy possum, the child again yearns
for her old love. the doll baby. To-
peka merchants foresaw this clamor
for dolls months before the general
public observed it. AS q consequence,
there are more dolls on the market
this year than for several seasons
1.-THE doll this year is practically in
destructible," said one dealer whose
stock numbers several thousand dolls,
''for the reason that the manufacturers
are using the metal heads almost en-
tfrely and the dolls are made stronger
than ever. When dolly is dropped on
the pavement it may bring pain to the
heart of the owner, but there will be
no repair bill at the doll hospital
The movable toys which used to be
operated by keys and springs are be-
ing replaced by more modern toys with
friction apparatus attached. A cir
cular weight is attached. which is ap-
piled by friction to the wheels and
will run the toy longer and better
than the old key and spring system.
The moving picture machine is
new present on the market this year.

heavier than year ago. Then, too,
we have a larger stock to select from
and the variety of offerings was never
so good as this winter
Are Buying Early.
The morning trains on the Santa
Fe and the Rock Island brought scores
of out of town shoppers to Topeka to-
day. Many of them declared that they
had come to Topeka to do their Christ
mas shopping.
I'VE have read so much a about buy
ing early said woman from Scran-
ton, "that we thought we would start
early and not have to hurry the last
few days before Christmas. I am glad
we came early, too, as we have had a
better selection than the other years
when we waited until the last minute"
Every merchant Is urging upon his
customers the necessity of early buy
ing. The early buying does away with
the customary rush just before Christ
mas. This, the merchants explain, pre-
vents much extra work on the part of
hundreds of already overworked clerks
and gives the shoppers more time in
which to get the worth of their money.

TEXAS AND new YORK.
The Names Selected for the Two New
Battleships.

Washington, Dec. 3.-"'Texas' and
New York. will be the names of the
two new battleships of the navy au-
thorized at the last session of con-
gress. They will be christened in ac-
cordance with the legal requirement
that first class battleships shall bear
the names of sovereign common
wealths.
The Texas" will be constructed by
a private contractor, while the New
York" will be built by the governmen t
at the New York navy yard.
The selection of names for the two
most powerful vessels in the United
States navy will necessitate the chang
ing of the names of two warships
which already bear these names. The
present Texas is a second class battle
ship and will be renamed San Mar
Co.'S" in honor of a city of Texas.
The present New York will be re-
christened the Manhattan"

Sedalia, Mo-. Dec. 3.-Railroad de-
tectives are investigating a report that
the Missouri Pacific wreck three miles
east of Knobnoster yesterday morning
resulted from deliberate attempt to
wreck the passenger. Fifteen persons
are in the hospital here as a result of
the accident, in which three coaches
were thrown from the track and down
an embankment. 1t was said here that
two men were seen in the vicinity of
the wreck an hour prior to its occur
renee and the railroad investigation
has led to the belief that a rail had
been displaced by expert railroaders.
All of those injured in the wreck
will recover.

If anybody in this village knows
positively that he or his family has
been omitted by the census takers of
the village he should report at once
to e. ]. Hail. Many families not at
home when the census taker called
have been counted through informa-
tion secured from neighbors but 1t is
thought possible that some upstairs
tenements have been overlooked and
also dodgers who merely roomed in a
house. Bennington wants to make as
good showing as possible this year.
