QUOTES SPEECHES BY BOB
One Made in April. 1908. Is Alleged
to Favor Third Term for Roose-
velt-ColoneI Answers Criticism on
Tariff Record of His Acministr alton.

Oshkosh.-A defense of his record
On the tariff question and All attack
on Woodrow Wilson's position were
made by Col. Roosevelt in his speech
here. Gov. Wilson, he said, had been
the hope of the progressives, but had
changed his attitude and "at present
MS sole chance lies in the support of
the reactionaries.
Here, in Senator La Fcllette's own
state, the colonel discussed for the
first time in his campaign the sena-
tors opposition to him. He replied
to Senator La Follette's attacks by
taking up number of points on
which the senator has based his
criticism of the former president He
expressed regret that the senator had
ranged himself against the progress
sive party and quoted from a speech
last year in the senate in which Mr..
La Toilette eulogized him. He also
quoted Senator La Toilette as saying
in a speech in April, 1907, that Col
Roosevelt should have another term
Col. Roosevelt said that the pro-
gressive party's campaign fund this
year would be less than half the fund
Of either the democratic or the re-
publican party. The progressives, he
said, were planning on a basis that
would involve the expenditure of
about $35O,O00.
The colonel reached Oshkosh at
the end of a journey from St. Paul,
during which, in spite of rain, crowds
met him at every station to hear him
speak from the rear platform. The
meeting was held in a warehouse
here. Two halls had been engaged,
but it was found that they would
seat only part of the crowd
Answering criticisms that he did
not take up the tariff question during
his administration, Col Roosevelt de-
clared that business conditions at the
time were such that a change of the
tariff would have been folly.

WHAT WE OWE TO POSTERITY
Bodily and Mental Health Is Neces
sary to the Prospective Mother,
Says an Authority.

Every child has a right to be we'll
born. An undesired child never should
be brought into the world. An unde-
sired child, or child of parents who
are not In good bodily or mental con-
dition, comes into the world with an
Inheritance that perhaps never is over
come
The ancient Greeks surrounded the
prospective mother with beautiful
paintings and statues so as to give a
mental impression of beauty to the
future generation. AS a result they
were noted as a beautiful race.
The expectant mother should give
her child all possible advantages of
good mental impression. Every child
brought into the world should be de-
sired before its conception, and, dur
ing it's prenatal life, the mother should
think nothing but loving and whole
some thoughts. She should train her
mind in habits that she wishes to i'm
press upon the child She should cul-
tivate habits of system, she should
cultivate correct taste and ear for
music. Her surroundings should be
artistic but simple. She should live
as close to Nature as possible.
The mothers own physical health
cannot help but affect her child, there
fore the mother should take those
measures that will promote the health
of her body In ancient Sparta, the
women exercised in the gymnasium in
order to obtain the highest possible
bodily vigor in preparation for the
function of motherhood, The Spar
tans were noted as a race Of excep-
tionally strong men. But the mother
should be careful not to take any
violent exercise during this period.
Swimming and walking are two of the
best general exercises that can be
taken Homework, with the exception
of the heavy lifting and scrubbing, is
valuable exercise. The expectant
mother needs, large amount OF fresh
air, so she should plan to spend sew
eral hours day in the open air 1t is
well for her to sleep out of doors, IL
possible, otherwise she should sleep
in a room with open windows.-Dr
Edith B. Lowry.

The use of lace more universally
than ever before on any gown where
it has the least suitability is one OF
the marked features of the autumn
fashions. II is combined in delightful
ly unusual ways with elk, velvet,
wolfe, and chiffon, says Harper's Ba-
Ear for October. For weddings. after
noon receptions, and bridge party
which is in many towns the main So
cial amusement-and all the more
elaborate of the daytime functions.
gowns are to be rich in color con-
trasts and in the materials used. Lace
is used in these for skirts or coats as
the fancy dictates. The little lowered
silk coats are charming with these
plated lace skirts. The Robespierre
frill which takes the place of the usual
reyers on the coat is very smart.

A WASTE or S225,OOO, 900
cent Trip Abrc al for the State
Board OF Public Affairs.

Madison.-That saving of $685.
sumers and producers of the farm
produce of this country through CO.
operative buying and selling is the
opinion of John Sinclair of the Wis
consin legal reference library.
Mr.. Sinclair was sent by the Wis
consin state board of public affairs
to England, Denmark and other
European countries in which coop
erative marketing has succeeded, to
study the methods followed there
and to determine whether or not
these would be applicable to Wis
consin conditions.
The farm produce of this country
is worth about $4,000, 100000, and
assuming that half of this represents
the cost of marketing under the pres
ent system, Mr.. Sinclair, in his re-
port, estimates that at least 5 per
cent of the other half could be saved
by the producers by having their own
cooperative managers and sales
agents.
This would mean a net gain to the
people of 1925, 100000. And the
experience of cooperation in Ireland
and Denmark, as told in Mr.. Sin
clair's report, is that many times that
amount may be saved.
The great aim in cooperation, ac-
cording to Mr.. Sinclair, is to increase
production and to get the product to
the consumer as economically as pos
sible

WOMAN'S SPHERE IN LIFE

cative field which can not Justly be
called narrow 1t is by woman's
gratuitous Interpretation that she
thinks this means keeping her among
the ashes of her hearth in continual
mental darkness. To be able to edu.
cate her sons and daughters she will
need to be at one with her inherent
divine nature, and any study or line
of work which can help her to that
end is good. Think what she needs of
biology, psychology, philosophy, to
give her basis of ideals from which
to get and give spiritual direction, not
to mention other branches needed for
definite, practical work! Here again
she must free herself from man.

MAKING THE ROSE JAR
SIMPLE MATYER WHEN ONCE 1T
is UNDERSTOOD.
FIRST Point Is to Gather the Flowers
in the Early Mornine-Cloves and
Allsplce Make a Welcome
Addition.

The rose jar is a source of never
en- ding delight to its owner, and max
ing and maintaining one is a simple
matter.
Rose petals should be gathered in
the early morning and tossed lightly
on table in COOL airy place, to dry
until the dew has evapcrated. They
should then be PLACED in a stone jar
and sprinkled with salt, little salt
over each half inch layer of petals.
The contents OF the jar can be added
tc each morning until enough petals
have been gathered. They should be
allowed to remain in the jar ten days
after the last liyer of petals has been
aeded. the whole mass being stirred
each day.
An ounce each of coarsely ground
cloves and allspice, and as much stick
cinnamon, broken into small pieces,
should next be provided. Transfer the
rose petals to another jar, sprinkling
in the spaces between layers of pet
ais. Cover the jar tightly and let
II stand in a dark place for three
weeks, at the end of which time the
stock is ready for the permanent jar,
which may be simple or elaborate, so
Icing as it has a double cover.
Have ready a quarter of an ounce
each of coarsely ground mace, all
spice and cloves; half a grated nut
meg, half an ounce of cinnamon, an
ounce of powdered orris root, and a
quarter of a pound of dried lavender
flowers. All should be mixed Next
fill the rose jar, alternating layers of
rose petals from the stock jar with
sprinklings of the spices. A few drops
each of rose, geranium, neroh and bit
ter almond oils should be dropped
upon the layers as the jar is filled,
and an ounce Of fine rose extract pour
ed over the whole.
A rese jar thus prepared will keep
for years. If the jar is left open for
half an hour each day the room and
even the entire house will be 1lled
with delightful and refreshing odor,
bewitching and subtle perfume

HOW TO MAKE A SNOW PLoW

Every boy who has an eye for BUSH
nishes splendid opportunity FOR earn
Ing money and is not slow to profit by
1t.
In some cities the cleaning of front
walks is done with a snow pillow and
team of horses. This is more general
and suburbs, where there is much va
want property and walks that never
would be shoveled if the work was
left for the owners to take care Of
Such a pillow, on a smaller scale, can
be used TO advantage by boys in re-
moving snow from walks, and If sew
eral of you boys organize a snow
shoveling brigade it will be strong
argument in your favor in soliciting
contracts for the season If you prom
lse to keep the walk plowed from
street corner to street corner. The
probability is that you will get more
! jobs in the neighborhood than you can
handle. In case the main walks are
plowed by the city, your pillow will be
handy for cleaning the inner walks,
carriage drives, etc.
We designed and constructed num-
Der of forms of small plows when
boys, and these were used In the
neighborhood for several winters. Two
forms of these are shown in Figs.
and 2. You will notice that each one
Is of very simple construction.
