 dred families will be thrown out of work.

Drink WAR PRICES.
Now Soda Fountains Have Fanel
Into Habit.

War prices in Topeka remain practi-
caIIy the same. Owing to the ad-
vanced price of sugar and eggs a
number of the druggists have made a
slight increase in the prices of egg
matted milks and egg drinks. How
ever, the advance is not general
throughout the city
The drug situation is reported to be
improving slightly owing to the fact
that few cargoes of chemicals have
been received in New York A num-
Der of the largest firms have notified
drug retailers that they are able to
supply a number of chemicals that
were unobtainab1e a few weeks ago.
The price on all lines of drugs remains
about the same as they were two
weeks ago.
In the food lines few raises are re-
ported and the few are very slight.
1t is expected that both the photo
graphic supply and chemical situation
will improve soon arrangements
are now being made to manufacture
them in the United States.

Chicago, Sept. 22--Sufrage leaders
rejoiced today over the decision yes

Owens. which gave women an oppor-
tuuity to vote for county commission
ers in the November elections. The
right of the women to the ballot for
the commissioners had been vigorously
opposed
The suffrage leaders believe it will
mean a larger registration OF women
and a much greater vote than would
have been polled otherwise. Many of
them feel confident that the two
women candidates. Miss Mary Nc

be elected. Both are running as Pro-
