EVERYBODY TALKS IT.
Electricity Does Wonderful Things
at Frisco Exposition.

Everybody who has been to
the Frisco exposition a k
about the magnificent electrical
display. The great buildings ana
light. The reflection can be seen
for many miles away, and it is
brighter than the lights from the
whole city of San Francisco. 1t
must be very fine, indeed.
What a difference in this WON
derful 1915 Exposition and the
first great American exposition at
Philadelphia in 1876. 1t was light
ed by suffering gas lamps, whose
Pickering lights were the best that
could be had. That was only SO
years ago, but what marvellous pro-
gress in lighting has come since
then. Only a year or two later Edi-
son invented the incandescent cleo
trio lamp, which has revolutioniZed
the worlds light.
Today you can have your home
just as light as the great Frisco
exposition by the installation of
electricity. 1t is the cheapest be-
cause it is the best. 1t is clean,
safe and sanitary.
Fifty-three Topeka homes the
past week contracted to be electro
fled. You should join the throng
now, while the Edison Company's
special campaign is on, and while
they are offering special free in
ducementS.
Following are those who will live
in brighter homes:

ELECTRIC IRON WEATHER.
Many Topeka Women Get Relief
by Using Electric Irons.


Electric irons are going fast this
hot weather. And this is the time
they should go fast, for they are
such labor savers, and take all the
drudgery out of ironing, making it
a pleasure.
There is twice as much ironing
in the summer as in the winter,
many clothes. Women almost
daily have small ironing or press
ing jobs to do, and an Electric
Iron does it quickly and without
having to build fire in the stove
to heat it. You can iron at any
time during the day or night with
an Electric Iron, and anywhere.
The Edison Company is selling
it's regular $3.50 iron at this time
for $3.50. and it's as good as there
is made at the price-made by
Westinghouse.
The following bought irons the
past week: Mrs. J. o. Eyer, 700

TO FORM NATIONAL BODY.
Urged to Organize Protect
i've Body.

Several Rock Island and Santa Fe
railroad officials in Topeka indorse the
suggestion of the executive committee
of the Associated Railroads of New
Jersey and Pennsylvania, which con-
Quoted the campaign to repeal the So
called full crew laws in those states,
that the railroads should organize TO
protect themselves against the enact
ment of vicious legislation and at the
same time lend aid and influence in
the passage of proper laws.
1t has been recommended that the
railroads form permanent organiZa-
ton to be known as the department
of public policy and relations to rep
lie interest.
This argument for organization has
been presented to railroads operating
in the southwest as follows:
LAS an indication for the necessity
for action along the lines suggested
your committee desires to call atten-
ton to the recent creation by four
brotherhood organizations comprising
employees in the train service, of a
committee known as the joint national
legislative beard, to represent the or
ganization in legislative matters, and
similar local committees are being
formed at many points. 1t is, there
fore, not only fair but essential, that
the railroads should likewise organize,
only on a broader and more compre-
hensive basis.
1.-The railroads, in addition, should
do everything consistent and proper
to foster more friendly and intimate
relations with buSinsS interests in the
territory through which they operate
by broadening their many business
connections and by giving greater at
tention to matters of local interest.
They should also keep their local rep
resentatives and officers in me re init
mate touch with their security holders
residing in local territory.
