Patent Medicine Bill Ii Again d Dead
One.

Topeka, March 4.-The patent
medicine bill was killed in short or
der by the house committee Of the
whole yesterday. This is the Dill
which the patent medicine companies
running wagons over the state fear
ed would put them out OF business.
1t was introduced by the committee
on hygiene and public health, but
C. H. Ewing, chairman Of the c,m-
mittee, stated on the floor OF the
house that personally he was op-
posed to such a bill. The COMMITTEES
took Just one vote on the measure
and showed 1t completely under. Not
more than a score OF votes was
registered in favor Of keeping II
alive and reporting 1t for passage
THE bill provided that It sho I'D
be unlawful for any person not
registered pharmacist to RIAL any
medicinal preparations containing
alcohol or acid or dispense or com.
pound any medicines or polsons, ex-
cept a medical practitioner h,ltins
q state certificate. The argument
made against the bill was that il
would put out Of business So 'eral
large, established concerns in Kan
sas; that it would put house to-
house peddlers of such medicines
out of business and would turn the
whole medical business over t. the
druggist.

SOLOMON PLAYER TO WICHITA

The wichita Eagle publishes the
following with regard to the signing

citation, Charles Farrell Of Solomon,

that average was made in only

participated, it compared favorably
with his willow work of the year

Topeka Capital Mrs. T. D.
Dewey, Of Potwin Place, gave . re-
ception yesterday at her home on
Greenwood avenue and several eIe.
ments which entered into the affair
made Of 1t a social event Of unusual
interest. It was the first time IN
several years that the Dewey home
has been opened for any formal af-
fair, and the Topeka hostesses were
glad to welcome Mrs, Dewey back
among their number. The day was
unusually pleasant, and the people
who called welcomed the occasion
eagerly ds 1t afforded an opportun-
ity Of seeing Mrs. Dewey's daughter,
Mrs. Arthur Holbrook. Of Des Moines,
Ia, who was the guest Of honor.
Mrs. Holbrook arrived Tuesday with
her three babies-and all the peo-
pie who expected to see her looking
Just a little bit pale and wan under
the cares OF motherhood were inn
mensely disappointed. TO say that
she looks the picture Of health is
putting 1t mildly, and II the care Of
three infants offers an opportunity
for nervousness and restlessness, no
body needs to look to Mrs. Holbrook
for an illustration Of the fact. She
Is as calm and undisturbed as that
day in June that people have talked
so much about. Yesterday she look
ed particularly attractive in white
lace robe, made over satin, and Mrs.
Dewey-not less attractive than her
daughter--was gowned in black
marquisette, .draped over white satin
with a broad band Of satin about the
bottom Of the skirt. The Dewey home
is a particularly attractive place and
the wall decorations are very lovely,
all the rooms in plain colors with
hand done borders In conventional
designs, and the pictures are well
chosen and very interesting. Yes
terday an orchestra was stationed
at the head of the stairs and dur
ing the afternoon there were several
hundred visitors. There were some
good looking gowns. Mrs. George
Parkhurst wore black charmcuse
made in princess style with piping
Of cerise satin outlining the yoke;
Mrs. Robert Carver wore coral col
ored satin with black marquisette
drapery and a coral band in her
hair; Mrs. A. H. Ellis gown was
embroidered net in white with a
girle Of pearls; Mrs. M. A, Low wore
white lace robe and carried q bou-
quet of pink sweet peas; Mrs Noble
Prentis wore black lace over white
satin.

In which one hit was made.
McGraw is delighted with Rusty's

Violation Of New Game Law

The first cases of violations of the new
Delaware game laws were tried today be-
fore Magistrate Wood. Frederic B. Muir
ply, who has been selected by the new
game commission as principal warden,
was the complainant against Benjamin
Hollinger and Benjamin Fowler of near
Wyoming. The men were charged with
taking out their rabbit dogs on Sunday
and disturbing and running game in vio-
laton of the Sunday rest statute in the
game laws. The fines in each case
amounted to 1926, at the stipulated five
dollars and costs. The Sunday rest
clause will be strictly observed.
The severity of the new game laws
against trapping game and animals may
cause thouble in this county. 1t will
not prevent the trapping Of fur bearing
animals, except squirrels, it is said. But
it may, however, cause trouble for the
hundreds of farmers boys who run to
their rabbit snares every morning and
many of whom keep their families in
rabbit meat and game all winter. The
old question of whether a farmer has
not a right to catch and impound and
kill a rabbit feeding and subslding on
his own farm, in the legal season, may be
taken to high court.

Duty Of the Century
Club

The New Century Club holds its first
m"rtin" OF the season ON Monday next.
1t i hoped that the local cluD will take
up the discussion OF Higher Education OF
Women in Delaware. This subject
promises to hold prominent place in cdu-
cational circle, this winter. Some of the
down State organizations have already
taken up the subject.
Much good. effective work can be done
along this line. All the data and ma
terial giving experience of other institu-
tions. The sentiment in the State is
strong and definite action along some line
of provision will no doubt be made at
the next session of the Legislature.
The New Century Club of Newark
has before it a plain duty in this work.
We should like to see the Teachers
Association of the Public Schools give
public voice to their opinions as to the
best ways and means for this necessary
provision.

The Bueiness OF Farming

In this connection too much cannot be

nearly one half Of the total. or as much

Farm Accounts.
If we were to believe all that we hear
of the business methods of farmers. we
should infer that they are generally lax
in keeping systematic records of thei,
farm operations. Without such records
it is impossible to reckon cost or to have
Il fixed basis in an effort to reduce it.
Without some sort of accounting one can
not tell which branch of his business II
costing the most to maintain, or WI ch
is bringing in the largest returns.

perience to divide the work of the farm
into departments. and keep the account
of each on card held loosely on its edge
in il box of convenient size. On one side
of the card were recorded the charges
against the department, and on the
other side all of the credits We're kept.
1t was Il simple matter at any time to
see Just how any department stood. This
system requires but il few minutes each
day to keep, and enables the farmer to
tell which line of his efforts is bringing

State. Good strong men of positions high
in State affairs and those of the rank

They are doing il good work in their
communities. This home. the only one
of its kind in the country. is an institu-
tion which is doing good impossible in
any other way.
Mr.. ID. {. Rose. a strong and influential
member of the order. is in large measure
responsible for the establishment and
success of this institution. His work can
be plainly seen in the renovation of the
grounds and the success of the farm
work. It must be very gratifying to have
been able to play such a part.
The Fraternal Home is one Of New

Dear Mr.. Johnson:
On Thursday of last week our town was
honored by large body of men (about
$500 who came from all parts of our Dia-
mond State as the Representative men,
bers of the Improved Order of Red Men
The total mebership in this State Is
above the 5000 mark
Newark was selected to hold the annual
Great SUM Council that the membership
as far as possible, especially those from
Kent and SUSSEX, might see the Frater-
nal Home, the pride of the Order, which
is located near our town. Ii is an insti-
tuition that appeals to every Delawarean,
being the only one of the kind in the
United States. Many We're the express
sions of admiration heard among the visi-
tors, large majority of whom were un-
der the impression that all the frontage
on Depot road was included. When they
learned that there was about $50 feet
front by 225 feer deep, nearly three acres
that was owned by private party who
was selling off in building lots-expres-
sions of alarm were fairly heard as no
doubt three LOIS would soon De built Ip
ana so muth Of the beauty OF the home
grounds view would be spoiled for all
time. The feeling was expressed that
tA.s ground should be secured to the
Home as soon as possible. To those of
Is mere VINO are so much interested in
the Fraternal Home it does appear since
our attention has been called to it that
the front on Depot road should not have
dwellings thereon, ana it sto be hoped
the Board of Managers will take steps to
secure this additional ground to the
home at an early date.
