of course, she is, since that Is what
she expects.
How different 1t would be II she
could only forget she is shy, X she
should say to herself: Il feel 1t In

pension of the paper, the Sioux City
Journal says the amount involved was
practically the same in both the pur-
chase and the sale by Governor Cap

The Sioux City Tribune says: Aft
er purchase of the paper number of
employees of Capper publications came
to Sioux City and Investigated the field
and the prospects of maintaining the
paper here. What they may have re-
ported is conjecture, but it is known
here on the streets that the advertisers
did not encourage them. On the sub
scription side the situation was still
more discouraging and Mr. Capper and
his associates concluded to close down
the paper"

This spirit of progressivism has ac-
tuated all of Woodrow Wilson's pub
lie service. Under his administration,
the major part of the program pro-
posed in the Progressive national plat
form of 1912 has been enacted into
law. Invisible government, which is
now making desperate efforts to come

administration, and will have no place
in Washington so long as he is in the

OLD WEATHER
Fair and Continued Hot Is Outlook.
Indefinitely.

The relief that was scheduled for
Topeka last night and today was side
tracked, according to S. d. Flora, To-
cal weather observer. Temperatures
were high last night over the entire
state and no rain was reported any
where in Kansas. Temperatures were
generally above 100 degrees yesterday
and the prospect is for a continuance
of the same brand of weather at least
tomorrow. Some cool weather GER
tainly was headed for Kansas frem
the northwest said Mr.. Flora, but
it turned aside before reaching here"
The forecast calls for generally fair
weather with continued high tempera-
lures tonight and Sunday. Tonight
probably will be the same kind of a
night as last hight was and the mer-
curry will be in the neighborhood of
the century mark Sunday. The wind
was in the south this morning blowing
at the rate of twelve miles an hour.
and the mercury climbed rapidly.
From the minimum of 76 at o'clock
this morning the temperature went to
SS degrees by o'clock and Mr.. Flora
said that the maximum today might
be even higher than that of yesterday.
The highest temperature on record
for this date is los degrees, estab-
lished in 1913. The low record, So
degrees, in 1894 There was a very
slight chance today that the mercury
would reach the record mark but it
