APPEAL SENT OUT.
Insurgents Ask for Presidential Pri-
mary i'm Every State.

Washington. Nov. 10.-Walter L.
Houser chairman of the progressive
Republican campaign committee, has
appealed through circular letters to
the chairman of every Republican
state committee in the United States
urging thai steps be taken to insure
a Republican preside ntial primary in
each state. by law in the five states
where it is provided for by statute, and
in other states by direction of the cam
paign committees. In his letter Chair
man Houser calls attention to the res
olutiOn adopted at conference of
progressive Republicans in Chicago
last month favoring state primaries for
candidates for president and vice presi-
dent and urging state committees to
provide that the people be given the
right to express their choice for preSi-
dent before the national convention.
1.-The demand for popular selection of
candidates for office" says Chairman
Houser, both state and national, has be-
come general It is obvious that no NOM
inee selected despite the wishes of the
rank and file of the Republican party can
inspire the confidence or command the
united and enthusiasm support which will
be SO necessary to Republican success in
1872
Mr. Houser stated In the letter which
was mailed also to the governor. Heuten-
ant governor and speaker of the lower
house in each state that the friends of
Senator LaFollette are ready to submit
his name for nomination to a direct vote
of the rank and file of the party.

Why! He's BaIdheaded
YesI Hundreds Of Thousands of Men
are Baldheaded. Many at IS and 40

baldhead doesn't mean an abund-
ance of brains as most baldheads
would pretend to believe. It does mean
that if dandruff germs had been de-
stroyed when dandruff first made its
appearance the owner of the baldhead
would still have his hair-also his
brains.
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1911-11-10

But most baldheads are not to
blame; they never heard until too late
of PARTISAN SAGE the delightful
hair preparation that kills dandruff
germs, eradicates dandrun, stops hair
from falling and prevents badness.

MIDNIGHT's FIRST LESSON FROM SNOWFALL.

HCoOD morning" haid SNOWFALL, as
~ he met Midnight the next morn
ing, after he had brought the kitten
home from the city, "hCpe you had a
good sleep. and that YOU feel better this
morning than you did Yesterday when
saw you by the side of masters
wagon"
Il had a fine sleep" said Midnight,
"for the bed was the softcst ever slept
on, and there was no noises to disturb
me, and I was warm all night, and that
Is something 1 have not enjoyed for a
long time
Kit and Puff came in just then and
said Good morning" ii Snowfall, as
did not notice Midnight
Something the matter with your eye

he noticed that kit and Puff had only
said Good morning to him. cant
you see that Midnight is here?''
Kit ard Puff knew well enough what
Snowfall meant, and not wishing to
openly offend him, they said Good
morning" to Midnight, but in a very
naughty way, and without looking in
his direction
Are you going to breakfast" they
eaid, as they passed SNOWFALL, and he
kent on walking toward the kitchen.
Il shall be there very shortly" said
Snowfall. and walked over to where
Midnight was sitting
When he got over close to the kitchen,
he sat down, and after waiting for a
minute, he said: do YOU know what
q cat ought to be, above everything
else?"
Il don't know that I do said Mid
night. You see, am not very old

"WeIl, your youth is no disadvan-
tage," said SNOWFALL, but a cat first of
ell ought to be good. He ought to be
truthful and honest, he ought not to
take things that do not belong to him,
and he ought to be kind and not get
angry. But next to being good, he
ought to be clean. My master says
the cleanliness is next to goodness, and,
as he never told me, l don't know
whether goodness comes first or not;
BIT, anyway, they are right next to
each other.
Now, it is perfectly plain to me that,
however, good a kitten you may be,
you certainly are not clean. There

with your tongue, this way" and
SNOWFALL began licking his sleek fur,
already glossy from the bath which he
had taken as soon as he awOke. And
you wash your face like this" he ex-
planned, tapping his paw and rubbing
mis- face with 1t.
Midnight worked hard to do as Snow
ball had shown him, and while Snow
ball occasionally laughed, when Mid
night tried to lick a spot hard to get
at and almost tipped over he neverthe-
less helped Midnight by giving him an
occasional suggestion.
At length Midnight had washed him
self all over and looked at SNOWFALL to
see what he should do next
You have done pretty WE'LL" said
SNOWFALL, for a kitten that was as
dirty as you were to start with, and l
guess that We will go in to breakfast,
but I want you to spend the day today

Abandoned Stockings
Used for Floor MOpS

No matter how often stockings are
darned and how economically they arc
worn, there comes a day, when they
are no longer fit TO appear in public
Then they begin to accumulate, until
they are thrown out by the weary
housewife.
They may be utilized, however, by
Sitting down the seams, or do0n the
sides If they are of the seamless variety,
and basting them down to make floor
mops. The feet, of course, are cut off
they are usually the worst-worn parts
in any case. For a heavy floor mop,
quilt several of the stockings loosely
together after they are split, or for an
Ordinary dry mop use just one thickness
of the cloth.
Another way of using the discarded
hosiery is to make of it f1atiron holders
and stove cleaners to slip over the hand
when applying the polish.

Tobacco Odor Removed
By Water and Straw

There is no odor more disagreea BILE
than that of stale tobacco smoke and
tobacco ashes. Sometimes a room be-
comes so permeated with It that it be-
comes hardly possible for delicate per-
sons to breathe in it. Here is a rem
edy suggested by a woman who suffered
and overcame:
Close the room up well overnight, with
doors and windows tightly shut, and
leave in ii a large pail full of water,
with a few wisps of straw. For some
reason the water and straw together
absorb the smoke and even take UP the
odor of ashes. Needless to say, ali dis
coverable ashes should previously have
been removed and thrown away.
BY morning the room is odorIess and a
little airing will cool II out and put it
again in condition for use.
