Governorship Talk.

Gossip 8concerning the next gov
ernorship campaign has continued at
intervals during the hot weather in
spite of the fact that convention time
is almost a wear away. Fred H.
Rabbit of Bellows Falls. whose name
has been mentioned in connection
with the Office, has announced that it
would be impossible for him to con-
slider such a thing and expresses the
conviction that Allen NJ. Fletcher of
Cavendish is the illogical candidate"
for the nomination. In this matter a
great many people will agree with
Mr.. Rabbit, and his opinion is valu-
able for the reason that his work
with Mr.. Fletcher in the last legisla-
! ture gave the Bellows Falls man an
excellent chance to form an accurate
! estimate Of the formers ability. Up
around Montpelier the name of
Joseph A. DeBoer is being put foe

president of the National Life In

receive the honor if he were not o.

Chanoino the Hair Line.

So much has been said Of the folly
Of changing the cOiffure to suit each
passing style that the other side is apt
to be overlooked. Hair can be worn
too continuously in one style, and if a
woman is not careful she may find
herself without any hair on the top Of
her head in the place where the hair
ought to grow.
The girl who thinks she looks pic
turesque with parted hair should &C.
casionally take weeks of for a pompa-
dour unless she wants a broad path
across her Uranium. This holds good

arranged. and there should be fire.

Of the boudoir.
The benefit Of these changes is real
tied when one finds that dandrunf ac-
cumulates under the thickest part Of
the hair, and IL it is too long in one
spot there is danger. the trouble be-
coming chronic.
Mothers have much to be responsible
for by not regarding hair strain for
their daughters. No girl who wears
her hair in one way from the time she
is six or eight until she puts on long
frocks can hope to have a good head
Of hair. 1t is bound to be worn in

one quart OF whipped cream favored
with few drops Of vanilla is added,
together with one-half pint OF pre-

EAGLES IN SESSION
Annual Convention at San
Francisco Is On.
National News Association


SAN FRANCISCO. Cal, Aug. 21.-
"The Best Ever" is the slogan of the
great convention opened in this city
today by the Fraternal Order of Ea-
giles. Tens of thousands OF visitors are
here from cities and towns in every
part of the United States and Canada
and the prediction that the attendance
would establish a new high record
has been fulfilled.
By common consent the people of
San Francisco have decided to make
the convention the occasion for sew
en-day carnival. The business section
of the city is gayly decorated with
flags and bunting and the emblems Of
the order. Business will be largely sus-
pended until the screaming Eagles
have furled their wings. and flown to
their far-away homes. For the present
it is mirth and music by day and mu-
sic and mirth by night.
Street pageants, barbecues, balls
and other features of entertainment
are to follow one another in rapid sue
cession. The festivities are to be en-
tirely Californian in spirit. the pagean-
try and special events being of the
pioneer days Of 40, with the vivid des-
cription of Bret Harte as the setting.
Roaring Camp" immortalized by the
famous writer, has been established
as one of the big features of the carni-
val
But it would be big mistake to i'm
agine that there Is no work to be done
during the week. Senator Thomas F.
Grady of New York is to retire from
the Office of grand president and the
choice of his successor has started
spirited contest. Frank E. Herring OF
South Bend, Ind, ]. J. Cusack, of San
Francisco, and several others are men,
toned for the head of the order.
Another contest has developed for the
Office OF grand secretary to succeed
Conrad H. Mann, who is retiring from
the Office after service of many
years.
Apart from the election OF officers
and other routine business, the con-
vention will be called upon to deal
with several radical measures which il
passed will have an important effect
upon the future of the order The first
of these new measures will deal with
the matter of age limit and is design
ed to bring an army of young men in
to the order. There is strong feeling
that the age limit should be set at Is
years, and there are said to be thous-
ands OF youths throughout the United
States and Canada who are awaiting
the decision of the grand body so that
they may be initiated. Another import
ant matter to be considered is the pro-
posal to institute women's auxiliary to
the Eagles.

Hot Water as q Tonic,

Drinking a cup Of hot water is q
lore edicacfous treatment for many
ills than some persons realize. There
are physicians who prescribe it for in
active livers, a glassful to be taken as
soon as one wakes in the morning. The
warmth as well as the liquid are bene-
fetal, for it is a well known fact that
few persons drink as much water
through the day as they should:
That the dose affects the complexion
favorably there is no doubt. Some per-
sons add the juice Of half a lemon to
the water. There is no doubt that for
certain systems this is beneficial, but
it is matter that a physician should
decide in individual instances.
Many a case of simple indigestion
may be cured by drinking a cup of
hot water, the dose to be taken as
soon as there is any sense of discom-
fort. Adding half teaspoonful OF BIZ
carbonate of soda is recommended by
nounced acidity of the stomach. the
soda acting as a neutralizer, while the
warm liquid carries the matter from
the stomach.
Persons who are dieting for reduc-
ton find hot water more thirst quench-
ing than cold. and they therefore can
get along comfortably with a Smaller
quantity. That water taken with food
is fattening there is no doubt.
Hot water is an excellent substitute
for tea for persons made nervous by
the beverage and on certain occasions
may be used as a food substitute.
If for any reason there is a desire
to get along with the least quantity of
food and the stomach becomes empty.
hot water is soothing and fills the void,
so that for a time feeling of faint
ness Is obviated
1t is in no way food, however, and
should not be regarded as such.

Grace Without Petticoats.

"Are you petticoatiess woman? And
If you have discarded your underskirts
have you learned to go without them
gracefully?" said the beauty lecturer
to her audience. 1.-The advice I would
give to the unpetticoated, to the WON
an who wears skirt SO snug and
clinging that she must adopt some
other style of underwear than the old
time petticoats, is this:
Look at your shoes. Your skirt
may not be cut of at your boot tops
but it is certain that they will show.
Have your ankles trim. Wear but.
toned boots and set the buttons over
until they absolutely pinch your ankles.
Don't wear shabby shoes. Your
feet simply must look nice.
Wear thin stockings. the gauzier
the better; under them wear flesh col
Ored silk hose.
IF you go without petticoats your
feet will show all the time. because
your skirt sinks in. So learn to toe
out. Don't be pi"eon:oed"

ARE LESS ACCIDENTS
Notable Decrease in Fatali-
ties in Indiana.

That the laws relating to the protec.
ton OF life on the interurban roads of
Indiana, passed by the 1911 legislature
are doing much toward diminishing in.
jury and death on those carriers. was
the assertion recently of members of
the railroad commission of Indiana.
interurban lines, however, there is an
apparent increase on the steam roads
doing business in the state.
During the last three days reports
OF sixteen accidents on the steam
roads of Indiana have reached the Of
flee of the commission. Three of the
accidents resulted in fatalities, and
thirteen resulted in minor or serious
injuries.
Better Men Hired.
Members of the commission attrib-
uted the decrease in accidents in inter-
urban roads almost entirely to the
class Of men now being hired as mo-
tormen and conductors. Provisions of
one law require roads to hire as mo-
tormen only those persons that have
had at least one years experience in
interurban train work, and that clause
has done much to save life and limb
in Indiana, according to the commits
sion.
There are approximately 1900 miles
of railroad in Indiana, compared with
LOO miles of interurban lines Mem
bers of the commission argued that
the casualty rate on the steam roads
should be no higher than that on the
interurban roads, because of the fact
that approximately the same number
of trains Is run on the interurban
roads as on the steam lines The Off
cials consider each car on the interur-
bans train, since the hazard of each
car is practically as great as that of
train.
Passengers Injured.
Figures given out several days ago
by the commission show that 1872 pas
sengers were injured during January,
February and March this year on the
steam roads of the state, while IS cas-
ualties, including nine deaths. were re-
ported on the steam roads as occur
ring to travellers on highways inter-
secting with the rights of way. EN-
ployes numbering 81 were victims of
accidents, and 80 of them. met death
during the same months, while tres
passers on the railroad companies
lands met with 20 accidents, ~ of
which were fatal
During the same months interurban
roads showed much lower casualty
total, decrease of approximately so
per cent. compared with the rate of
the corresponding months of 1910.
