BEST WAY TO WASH CARPET
Use Warm Water, Soap and Piece Of
Flannel, Drying Well With
Towel.

To wash the carpet thoroughly you
Will require a bucket of warm water,
a cake of carpet soap, a piece Of house
flannel, and, if you are going to tackle
a falr-sized piece Of carpet at once, a
supply of dry cloths.
DO not begin near the door, as you
may require to leave the room for
fresh water, and 1t is unwise to walk
on the carpet when damp. Make up
your mind to do without the room
I'LL all is dry. Start washing as far
from the door as possible, and work
towards it. The flannel is wetted, and
a portion of the carpet well.rubbed.
II must not be overdone, only wetted
suficiently to secure a good lather
by running the carpet soap ball well
IN. Then with the clean, wet flannel
remove the soap. Well rinse the fan.
mel afterwards, 30 that it is quite
soapless when you begin again, later,
on another piece.
NO soap must be left in the carpet
when the ina. rubbing commences.

dampness, you can almost dry the
patch with friction. and this brings up
the nap beautifully, also the colors.

MURDOCH PARTY's CHOICE FOR
g SPEAKER.

Members of the Progressive party
In the lower house have let it be
known that they will not travel in
the same class with the Republicans
and they have agreed upon Represen-
tatiVe Murdoch for leader, and he
will be duly nominated and receive
the votes of his party for Speaker.
The Republicans will name James R.
Mann, of Illinois, while the Democrat
will elect Champ Clark. The fact
that Mr.. Murdoch will be named for
Speaker has a great deal of signi-
Ricance, and is more far-reaching than
the comforting of a mere honor. Mr..
Murdoch is to become one Of the
house leaders, in fact, and it will be-
come his dtuy to define the Progress
ave position, and to speak for his
party upon every matter Of legisla-
ZION as it comes up. In the division
q time for debates the Progressives
are to be recognized as a minority
party, the same as the Republicans,
and there will be three distinct and
otticial party organizations in the
house, where there have been but
10 heretofore. Senator Bristow, at
the other end of the Capitol, is de-
pended upon to cooperate with the
progressive policies, so that with
Senator Thompson holding down the
Democratic situation, and with the
help back of Murdoch, Bristow and
Nmpson in their separate political
---nps, Kansas ought to be pretty
well in the swim.

WISCONSIN SENATOR AT
THE WHITE HOUSE.

More than three years ago Senator
LaFollette took the White House off
his calling list, and since that time
has disagreed most Of the time with
the policies from that headquarters.
In an effort to find what common
ground exists between the Senator
and the new President the two sat
down to a little "talkfeast" few
evenings ago, and while it is not
known just what subjects were dis
cussed, it is safe to say that the re-
lations between the White House
and the senior Badger Senator are
Tar better than they were in the old
en- days. 1t is even asserted that Sen
ator LaFollette may have a good deal
to say. about the distribution of Wis
consin patronage, even though Joe
Davies, the new assistant Secretary @
War, is supposed to be at the head
q the middle west spoils department.

sentimentalism. If they really gain
equality before the law" which they
claim to be seeking, they will find
that it II go considerably harder
with them than they ever imagined.
On this side Of the water women
have obtained the ballot with COM
parative ease in a number of states
ard are making good Roadway in
others. But it is not of record that
the cause of suffrage has been ad-
vanced in any degree by the mar
tyrdom" of those American women
who have been marching about
throuh the ice and mud inflictin up
through the ice and mud inflicting
upon themselves much needless hard
ship and suffering. Western women
could give their eastern sisters some
very valuable pointers on how to get
the ballot without sacrificing their
physical comfort or compromising
their self-respect. There can be no
doubt that the militant suffragettes
of England have done their cause
more harm than good by their shock
ing tactics. Women who openly and
defiantly break laws in the wantOn
spirit of anarchists cannot impress
upon the world their fitness to aid in
making laws. Men who respect au-
thority very naturely hesitate to
place power in the hands of those
who daily demonstrate their incom-
potency to exercise authority wisely.
From her cell Sylvia Pankhurst
wrote to her mother the other day,
Il am going to fight, fight, fight!"
This sounded very heroic, probably,
ard no doubt the younger Pankhurst
gets much pleasure Of a kind out of
her notoriety; but after all, it was
very silly. The younger Pankhurst
was in cell because she deserved
to be there and had deliberately
sought to make a sacrifice of herself.
She had been guilty Of persistent Of
lenses against society that would
have landed a man perpetrating them
in prison for most of his natural life.
The world is getting pretty tired of
these Pankhursts and it would arouse
no universal protest if they were re-
strained permanently, or at least for
such a time as would keep them shut
up until the suffrgaette militancy has
run its carry course.
