A Good Whitewash.-A very bril-
liant and durable whitewash may be
made as follows:
Into a kerosene or molasses barrel
dump a barrel Of freshly burned stone
lime and add water gradually pail by
pail until it is slaked, at the same
time adding cup by cup, while the
shaking is going on and the mixture is
very hot, common kerosene oil, until
you have added gallon. This gives a
fine, smooth, hard finish, brilliant
whitewash when mixed with water to
form a wash Of ordinary consistency.
This wash may be modified to use
on the inside by adding a third of a
cupful of crude carbolic acid to the
pail Of wash. By putting it on the in
side Of the houses, on roost poles and
in nest boxes, this wash, which is
softer than that not modified, is rub
bed off by the fowls and keeps the lice
down. OF course. the mites and their
nits are killed by contact with the
wash.-Ex.

SHOE AND GLOVE FASHIONS
for Both Articles of Apparel Just Now.

Entirely aside from this question of mourning every one knows that the combination of black and white Is be- ing featured this season more than usual. Still 1t Is a surprise to most fashion observers to discover that even the realm of shoes is beginning to show this combination.
 Some of the smartest of the new kid lowcut shoes have white uppers, but shiny black heels and mere line of black kid about the top.
 An ultra smart model has the vamp of soft-fnish black and the uppers- side and back-of white.
 Black buttons on high white shoes replace the pretty crystal buttons in some instances. Black bows are favor ed on all white shoes of the pump" or low Oxford type
 The black heel will be seen on some of the white canvas and buck skin shoes in place of the tan or white covered heel.
 Black stockings may be worn with white shoes, or white stockings with black ones.
 Gloves show the same inevitable combination. Some long gloves of white kid have narrow diamond shaped insets of black near the el- bow, and long black gloves reverse this order by having insets of white.

Congratulations and Best Wishes,

Madame Merri: Does not society decree that when man and girl are engaged that the man alone should be congratulated; it being considered that he is the one favored; but is it such an awful breach" to congratu- late the girl too, especially when all concerned are intimate? Since the action would stand the test of reason I should think it were all right. Let me know.

Perplexinu Question.

l am coming to you for advice, as you have helped so many. When a girl is out riding with boy and on arriving home she does not ask him to call again, would you think he would take it as turn-down? She does not wish him to consider it that way. If you think he did what should she do to make it up and what would be proper to say next time? When girl and boy are at a party together whose place is it to mention going home? Do I write we'll?

You have not asked too many ques- tions and only wish could give you more definite answers. Personally I like afternoon parties for just girls, when your age, but you might think 1t more fun to have the festivity of an evening affair with both girls and boys. I think I would let mother or whoever gives the party decide. You can get the regular birthday party sta tionery to be filled in, or telephone the message. Serve ice cream, of course, birthday cake and bonbons with choco- late and brown bread sandwiches if you wish more. I would play guessing games and have each one do some stunt.

VOTING BEGINS EARLY
Both Sides Are Claiming Ohio as Con-
fidently as Ever.

Columbus, May 21.-Taft managers
early declared that the bright sun
shine was Indicative of a sure victory
for the president. Many of the farm
ers, they said, who were supporting
Colonel Roosevelt were far behind in
their spring work and would not
leave their fields to cast a vote.
Roosevelt supporters stuck to their
former claims that a majority of the
delegates elected would be Roosevelt
men.
Almost all of the approximately five
thousand voting precincts in the state
opened at $50 o'clock and in the
cities a large early vote was cast
The polls will close at $50 tonight in
the cities, but in some of the country
districts will remain open until 6
o'clock.
Two candidates for the presidential
nomination, President Taft and Gov
ernor Harmon, will cast their votes in
Cincinnati. The president will leave
that city early in the day. Governor
Harmon will remain at his home to
hear the returns.

TO PLAN CAMPAIGN.
Kansas Women to Chicago to Help

Chicago, May 21.-ways and means of
pushing the campaign for equal suffrage
were discussed here today at the Missis-
sfppi Valley suffrage conference which
began a two days session. Leaders from
several states in the middle west are in
attendance.
Those from the southwest on the pro-
gram include Mrs. Lucy b. Johnston, To-
pel1a, president of the Kansas State Equal
Suffrage association and wife of the chief
justice of the Kansas supreme court; Mrs.
w. R. Stubbs, wife of the governor of
Kansas; Mrs. w. 7. Johnston, Wichita I;
Mrs. c. A Hoffman, Enterprise; Miss
Helen N. Eacker, Lawrence; Mrs. Charles

peated." Senator stone referred to
Senator LaFollette's participation in
the campaign, and continued:
Mr.. President passing over the per-
sonal and party aspects of this mis-
cradle squabbIe is it not truly a sad
spectacle we are witnessing? These
world-famed Republican leaders have
been for months circling the country
abusing each other like pickpockets IN
language akin to the vernacuIar of a
flsh market or even something worse
The world outside looks on aghast
and the press and reading public of
all enlightened nations everywhere
cr1t1cise, cartoon, laugh and taunt."
To the amusement of the senate,
Senator Stone read samples s'of the
polite exchanges of COMPLIMENTS
among the three Republican candi-
dates. He said he must grant that
President Taft "innately a gentleman .
evidently was reluctant to enter upon
this 'ruffian fight" He asserted, how
ever, that the last word in this black
chapter of American history would be
written at Chicago.
Il say last chapter" he added, ''be-
cause l cannot believe tLat after this
storm of strife and these exposures
the American electorate will consent
to return the Republican party to
power"
He concluded with statement that
the Democrat candidates were con-
ducting themselves with a sense of
propriety.
