SIR THOMAS LIPToN,s REQUEST.

Sir Thomas Lipton has not issued a new challenge for America's cup but 1t is apparent that he would like to try new model in competition with one built on this side of the water He has proved first class sport under losing conditions and he has net en- tirelY lost his nerve, but it is evident that he does not believe that they can build 2 racing yacht on the other side which will stand the buffeting of the voyage across and win the race. The trials he has made have shown the lack of probability. Sir. Thomas is now at Chicago, and there he has re- peated his willingness to provide an other challenger if the rules of the New York Yacht club can be so chang ed as to give him chance to lift the cup.
 He wants the requirement. that the challenger must come across under it's own sail. removed He thinks that it is impossible to build successful racer whiSh will be strong enough to cross thu ocean. In that he does not give the credit of the victories to American skill or seamanship. He for gets that the conditions are the same for all concerned, whether the race is on tliis side or on his side. It is the sailing qualities of the American yachts combined with the skill of the navigators which have kept the cup aere.

SUPPORT PRESIDENT TAFT.

The hazard of democracy. the fear of Roosevelt, and the trust in Taft tells the political story as it is seen in the present campaign and why the coun- try should return the president to the White house. Promises do not give the assurance that are to be found in the record of President Taft where there is set forth the evidence of his out and out stand for constructive legislation, the welfare of the people, the best con- ditions under protective tariff, and peace in preference to war.
 In support of President Taft, The Independent has this to say: We support him because he represents the party of equal rights for all, the party which opened and has never shut the door of equal opportunity. We sup port him because he represents the party which is most likely to give us a period of continued and growing prosperity. His party is pledged to reduce excessive tariffs and will do it under information impartially ob- tained and based on comparative cost of production, both here and abroad. Ab Wlit NOANlol lHS lThSlS Dy d COlIl- mission which will restrain them as railroad commissions operate in states We trust him in international affairs He has proved himself prudent exec utive. His achievements of the past four years are well in advance of any, thing that can be said of other ad- ministrations for the last thirty years Particularly we call attention to the fearlessness with which the Sherman Jaw has been enforced as compared with the slackness of its enforcement during the four years following the contribution of millions of dollars by the trust to secure Nthe election ir 1s04 of his predecessor"
 It is evident that the thinking voters are taking the same sensible view oi fhe situation as The Independent sets forth. He has conducted an honest businesslike, progressive administra ton. wherein the common people have been far better recognized, not by the blast of trumpets. but by action Il is the doing which counts and which will get the votes November 5.

SUFFRAGE IN ENGLAND.

It is not surprising that there is a division among the suffragettes in Great Britain over the methods used in the effort to secure suffrage there. For a long time there has been the determination to do or die in behalf of the cause to such an extent that it was getting, to the point where the advocates were attempting most any act in order to serve as martyrs. This meant that law and order were dis regarded, prison sentences for damage to property, assault and arson resulted in jail sentences, only to be followed by hunger strikes, with impairment of health or death threatening. Much ground was lost through the lawless- ness and violence of the militants, which they hoped by martyrdom to re- gain. IL was condition resulting from such sacrifice which was hoped to carry the cause through, but it has been foiled every time.
 The break in the ranks evidently means that the folly of such proceed ings has been seen and that like any other great cause It must be presented before the people right. That this has not been done before Is regrettabIe in a country where equal suffrage or any important problem needs solution. The extremists seem to be hindering rather than helping their own cause, and, strange it is. that they have not seen that their actions are only delaying the time when suffrage will be granted.

THE FOREIGN MARKET.

The selling of American products in foreign markets is one which has caused much confusion of mind, in view of the fact that claims are made that goods from this country can be bought for less figure in other lands than they can be purchased here. This is an old free trade claim without due explanation In the first place, goods which are sold in the foreign market represent tine surplus of products in this country. In competing in the foreign market where foothold may be desired prices are sacrificed for that reason on a small amount of goods, statistics showing that of our manu- factured products amounting to twen- ty and a half billion, only 3.2 per cent. went abroad, and superiority of Amer lcan goods in many cases was respon- sible for the sale The foreign field offers chance for working off excess goods. The expense of selling is not so great in the moving of a surplus stock.
 It is evident that it must be small portion of American products which sell for a lower figure abroad, for if the amount reached a large figure it would have d detrimental effect upon wages. It would be impossible to maintain the wage scale of employees if the entire output was marketed in competition with the world and the cheaper labor which is to be found in foreign countries. When goods to any extent are made to meet prices in free trade countries, the price paid to labor must drop accordingly. No one wants that condition. The past has demon strated it's effect.

BEST @ HE EVER SPENT
Bristol, Pa, Man Says So in This
 Letter.

Months of suffering and anxiety over his condition caused MT. A. L.. Kennedy of Bristol Pa.,. to write this letter. He says: Grippe and bad cough caused me much suffering and worry for five long months. but that is all over now for I have taken Vinol and am perfectly well. I took five bottles and 1t was the best five dol lars 1 ever spent"
 In health one cannot realize how depressed person may become after trying one remedy after another for such a condition as MT. Kennedy was in. without benefit, or what a relief it is to find help and be restored to health and strength.
 It Is the combined action of the medicinal curative element of cods livers without the greasy oil, aided by the blood-making and strength creating properties of tonic iron, that makes Vinol so efficient in overcom- ing chronic coughs. colds and bron- chitis at the same time building up the weakened rundown system
 We guarantee Vinol to give you perfect satisfaction. Broadway Phar- macy, G. G. Engler, Norwich, Conn.

NEW ARM CHAIR.

For the crowded room is a perfect ly ideal arm chair which is the acme of comfort for woman to sit upon. The reason why this chair especially appeals to women is because of the height of it's seat from the floor. That detail is the same as the so-calle sewing chair which goes with the low sewing basket or the cradle and is well known for it's comfort. The new chair has not definitely defined legs, since they are Ibolted in by woven will low work matching the material of the back and has arms, which are of even height and also bolted in. The seat of the chair is also the lid of a box which will hold innumerable pa pers or any amount of stockings to be mended, and so compact as well as ornamental is this new piece of furni- ture that people who perhaps live in cramped quarters will wish they own ed a specimen of it.

SANDWICH CUTTER.

For the hostess who likes novelties in her refreshments, even if it means that she must go to rather more ex- pense. there are sandwich cutters in various appropriate shapes, such as heart< diamonds and so forth, says an exchange. They are just large enough to cut one figure out of the average size slice of bread, and, while in one way they seem an extravaganza on account of the amount of bread wasted, in another they save time, as they do away with the necessity of trimming off the crusts

INSOMNIA CURE.

Scent has other attractions than a mere appeal to the nose. Anybody, for instance, who suffers from insomnia may find relief in perfumes. Collect a number of fresh pine needles and fill bag with them; carefully rip open your pillow and place the bag amid the feathers in the pillow. The per fume of the pines is often an excellent soporific. A bag of dried hops used in the same way is just as good. Dried rose leaves, mixed with dried clover heads, give out a delicious perfume and helps a weary one to woe the god of sleep

A very excellent way to join seams in portiere is by means of a button hole stitch Work a row of button hole stitches along the edge of one breadth with coare floss, the button holed edge being about one-fourth of an inch in width. With the last three stitches catch the second breadth to the first. Then buttonhole for an equal lenth with three buttonhole stitches. In this way slits will be left between the stitches which hold the hreadths together. This is a craftsman's way of joining seams and 1t is really very ornamental and especially nice for joining portiere seams.

 The only drawback to the cushion is that 1t is rather in the way sometimes.
