getting rid of them. The author calls
attention especially to the fact that
these insects will migrate from an
unoccupied to an inhabited house, and
points out that the fact that they
ordinarily hide in the daytime makes
it necessary to apply the insecticides
in cracks in walls and floor, and
crevices under wall paper, where
the insects ordinarily are concealed
and lay their eggs. Information as to
the ability of bedbugs to withstand
cold and to go without food for long
periods should be especially useful to
those intending to move into houses

FOR BRUISES
chiIdren's Burrs, Sprains and Minor
Hurts Quickly Relieved by
Sloir's Linfment.

1t is the very nature of children
to hurt themselves-to come crying
to mother with little fingers bruised,
with heads bumped, with sprained
ankles and wrists.
They are painful hurts, too. But
their pain and sting can't survive the
gentle use of this liniment. A single
application of Sloan's Liniment and
the little fellows bravely kept back
tears give way to smiles. His hurt
is relieved
In every home where there are
children a bottle of Sloan's Liniment
is a necessity.
Aching muscles, rheumatism, lum-
bago, stiff neck, backache. chiiblains,
etc, can be effectively relieved with
Sloans Liniment. Cleaner than mussy
ointments or plasters.
Sloan's Liniment can be obtained
at all drug stores, 25c, soc and S1.00.

Says Campaign of Woman's Party
Will Do Nothing for Suffrage

The National American Woman's
Suffrage Association is maintaining
its non partisan policy and taking
no part, as an organization, in the
present election, according to Mrs.
arrie Chapman Gait, OF New York,
president OF the association, i'll let
ter to Mrs. George Bass, chairman
ol the Woman's Bureau OF the West
ern Democratic Headquarters.
Mrs. Gait stated that the National
American Womans Suffrage Asso-
ciation represents without doubt
nincty-live per cent Of the organ
,zed suffragists Of the country, and
that its membership is composed OF
both democrats and republicans.
The National Association is tine
organization which has lifted the
suffrage movement to its present po-
ston OF an issue in the political lite
Of our nation said Mrs. Gait. 1T
was our association which caused the
introduction of a federal suffrage
amendment into congress which 1t
has consistently supported ever since.
1T earnestly desires the submission
Of a federal amendment, but it de-
sircs it on non-partisan basis. 1t
is entirely out of sympathy with the
Woman's party theory that such an
amendment can only be put through
on a partisan basis. We recognize
that no party has had two-tiird :
majority in congress since the days
OF reconstruction and that no party
is likely to have such majority II
the near future.
Even though so phenomenal I
thing should happen as party II
power controlling two-thirds ma
jcritv. the amendment must be rat
fed by thirty-six states, and some o
these states will be sure to be gov
erned by the opposing party. In ref
erenda, too, we are obliged to appea

Our position as non-partisans, there
fore. we hold to be infinitely wiser
more digni6ed. and safer than an
other policy possibly can be.
