Who Will BE TAFTS
NEXT RUNNING MATE
This Question is Now Being
AgitatGd

Washington, May 27.-Rumors have
been rife of late, as to who would be
named on the national ticket as the
Woe presidential candidate, provided,
Of course, that President Taft captured
the second nomination. Vice President
Sherman has been quoted as saying
that he would not again be a candidate
for the Office he now holds. Latest re-
ports are to the effect that the presi-
dent hopes to capture the progressive
vote of the country by having Senator
Cummins, of Iowa, named as the vice
presidential candidate.
In each case a moments reflection
is all that is necessary to dispose OF
both rumors. In the first place Vice
President Sherman was given the vice
presidential nomination in 1908 against
the wishes of President Roosevelt
and Mr.. Taft. 1t is a well known fact
in Washington that Mr.. Roosevelt, then
president, and Mr.. Taft then secretary
of war, and candidate for the presi-
Dental nomination, did everything in
his power to prevent the nomination
of Sherman. Long distance telephone
wires connecting the White House and
the convention hall in Chicago were
kept hot in the effort to head off the
movement to nominate sherman
1t is generally understood that Mr..
Sherman is no more acceptable to
President Taft today that he was three
years ago. This does not necessarily
mean that Mr.. Sherman will be depriy-
ed Of another nomination. The vice
presidents friends in the house and
senate are already maneuvering to
bring about condition which will en-
able them to hand the vice presiden-
tlal nomination to Mr.. Sherman if ne
desires another term
1t so happens that the men who are
behind the movement are not at all
enthusiastic in their support of Pres
ident Taft for another term. They
would much prefer to name Sherman
for the presidency, and confidently ex-
pect to have a number Of delegates
pledged to him for that Office. These
delegates are to be captured more

with a view of trading for the vice
presidential nomination than with any
definite hope that the presidential
nomination can be landed for Mr..
Sherman.
So far as Senator Cummins is con-
cerned his friends and the friends of
the president laugh at the mere sug-
gestion of these two men running on
the same ticket The senior senator
from Iowa long ago ceased calling at
the White House for the purpose Of
comforting with the president on i'm
portant public business, and since the
break in the relations OF the two men.
Senator Cummins has not hesitated to
criticise the president and the admin
istration.
Senator Cummins' record of opposi-
ton to many of the views held by
President Taft is so clear that his
friends declare he could not consist
emily accept place on the ticket Witt
the president Besides Senator Cum
Minis has bare chance of getting the
presidential nomination himself
Even President Tafts most intimate
friends admit that they will have
most interesting and determined fight
on their hands at the next national
convention The insurgents are op-
posed to giving the president another
nomination, and on this proposition at
least, they are in thorough accord
With a very considerable humber of
the stand-pat element in both branch
es of congress.
These stand-patters don't want to
give another nomination to the pres
ident any more than the insurgents 10.
They are opposed to the president for
different reasons, but they are opposed
tc him just the same, and quite as
vigorously as the insurgents.
With such state of affairs existing
thus far in advance of the convention,
q compromise is not entirely out of the
question, and if a situation arises
which would make necessary a com
promise candidate, Senator Cummins
would loom up in the foreground as
one of the most likely men in the
country upon whom an agreement
could be effected.
Friends of Senator Cumming are
fully aware Of the possibilities of the
situation, and they do not propose 10
sacrifice any chances the senator
might have for the presidency itself
by permitting the use OF his name for
the vice presidential nomination with
president Taft.

RUTH CAMERON WRITES
ON SEVERAL TOPICS

weather 1t was sent in by doctor
reader.
Most people have a notion that if
they take a bath in the morning it
must be cold, and many people who do
not have any too much vitality shrink
from that. Now a quick warm bath
followed by cold dash on the face
and shoulders is very refreshing es-
pecially if the sleep has not been so
good as usual In fact it almost takes
the place of nights sleep"
I'll am the more ready to pass on
this suggestion in that / have already
tried it two or three mornings when
for one reason or another / awoke
from my nights sleep unrefreshed,
and have found it supplied me with the
feeling of freshness and vigor that
lacked.
l am expecting to make steady use
of it during the summer.
a.
mo, can't come over tonight"
said the little stenographer lady. "of
course I'd like to but you see it's dads
land mothers anniversary, so we are
going into town to dinner and the
theatre. That's what we always do
have some kind of grand foot. Last
year it was the circus. Both dad and
mother are as crazy about the circus
as any kids. You don't think it's going
to rain do you I'd hate to have It.
This is one of the biggest events of the
year for u.s.
Doesn't the wedding anniversary

There was a time when a wife darn
ed her husbands socks, cooked hi;
meals and served them, bore his
babies. ana patient with his fault-fnd-
ing, and felt that because of all this
and more, she was meeting every OBJ
legation as Wife
But times have changed We are
getting a new viewpoint of life, and
that which man once regarded as
her duty she now knows has only q
weak makeshift for preserving peace
and that she kept peace at sacrifice OF
her husbands greater development
She bore his burden, concealed wor-
ries from him and shielded him from
domestic storms, thereby making Of
him a weakling.
She sacrificed herself and made him
selfish; she added to his vanity by her
lack of criticism; she made home lazy
by waiting on him; she failed utterly
in what SHE now knows is a woman S
real mission on earth: To round out
her husbands character!
To Improve Him, Make Him Do the
Family Cooking.
In these days of character building
it is sometimes a problem to woman
how to best go about it to make a
Lotle man of her husband There is
but one way: Make him do the cook

PUT MAN IN THE KITCHEN;
1T WILL OPEN HIS EYES

The cook stove is justly mans
territory for the reason that, of all
animals, he thinks the most Of his
stomach.
! He has greater strength than his
wife.
He likes to fish and hunt, and his
enjoyment in these healthful sports
will be intensified if he has to cook
the harvest of his rod and gun
When he picks the feathers, skins
the fur and scrapes the scales, it will
increase his sense of order, and ne
will not cover the kitchen with the
debris OF sport.
When he broils a breast as carefully
as if it were to be his portion, in
stead of the backbone the cook always
gets, it will broaden his sense of APP
preciation.
When he has to cook eggs as many
ways as there are children at the
table he will learn more of the ca
priciousness of the Child Stomach, and
thereby feel human interest in the
Child Mind.
When he serves the others first and
reaches his own plate when the din
ner is cold, he will mediate on the
rewards of unsel1shness, and Perfec-
ton in Man will become something
more to him than a dream.
There is a patience that comes only
with baking cookies, and Man needs it.
