BURLESON IS RICH
He Has Corner on Tainted
Money, Says Illinois Senator.
Also He Is Accused of Being In
GOmpers' Glass.

Washington, Sept S.-"If there is
any tainted money in this world any
where it is found in the worldly pos
sessions of Postmaster General Burle-
son."
This was the concluding statement
Thursday of Senator Sherman, of Illi-
nois.
Mr.. Sherman was speaking on the
corrupt practices bill. He said that
Samuel Gompers and Postmaster Cen
eral Burleson were political bedfei-
lows" Mr.. Sherman quoted from
speeches by GOmperS to show that ne
claimed credit for the recognition OF
Carranza in order to ameliorate labor
conditions in Mexico.
Burleson, Mr.. Sherman said, was the
greatest political power in the Wilson
San Antonio Express of October Y,
1909, containing the report of the
Texas general assembly or the investi-
cation of labor conditions on convict
farms This report called special at
tention to conditions on a farm of
5000 acres on the Brazos river be-
longing to Burleson and a kinsman
named Johns. The report showed that
the state worked it with convict labor,
receiving so per cent of the profits
and the owners 40 per cent
Murderer Rewarded.
Mr.. Sherman explained that the re-
port dealt largely with brutal treat
ment of convicts and the superintend-
ent, one Thomas Durham, was tried
for killing one of the negroes. Be-
cause the evidence of convicts was not
admitted, Mr.. Sherman said, the su-
perintendent was not convicted.
Mr.. Sherman said that Durham in
1913 was appointed postmaster at
Longview, Texas, by Burleson and
served until his death.
81 have no doubt" declared Mr..
Sherman, referring to what he said
were claims by Gompers that he could
control the labor vote for the Demo-
cratic party, that Mr.. Burleson can
deliver more of the convict vote of this
country than Gompers can of the labor
vote"

Hair Often Ruined
By Washing With Soap

Soap should be used very carefully
if you want to keep your hair looking
its best. Most soaps and prepared
shampoos contain too much alkan
This dries the scalp. makes the hair
brittle, and ruins it
The best thing for steady use is just
ordinary mulsified cocoanut oil (Which
is pure and greaseless), and is better
than the most expensive soap or any
thing else you can use.
One or two tablespoonfulS will
cleanse the hair and scalp thoroughly.
Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub it in. 1t makes an abundance
of rich, creamy lather, which rinses
out easily. removing every particle OF
dust, dirt. dandruff and excessive oil.
The hair dries quickly and evenly, and
it leaves the scalp soft. and the hair
fine and silky, bright. lustrous. fluffy
and easy to manage
You can get mulsified cocoanut oil
at any pharmacy, it's very cheap. and
a few ounces will supply every MEM
Der of the family for months.-Adver-

TWO TRAFFIC COPS
They Will Look After the Jay Walk
erS and Drivers.

Two traffic cops will make their
bow to Topeka Tuesday, September
IL, when the new traffic ordinance
becomes effective, according to an an
nouncement made this morning by
Mayor Jay E. House. One of the new
officers has been appointed. He was
a patrolman under the Cofran ad-
ministration. The other will be ap-
pointed in a short time.
The length of their service will de-
pend upon the length of the city s
purse strings. Mayor House stated
that poverty stricken, or not, traffic
cops will be absolutely essential for q
considerable length of time until the
Topeka pedestrians and drivers of cars
get out of the ''hic'' town class.
"Details of their service will be
worked out with Chief Parsons" said
the mayor cit is my idea at this time
that the two men will find all they
can do in the congested district
The congested district is bounded
by Fourth street, Tenth avenue, Jack
son and Quincy streets. After an
analysis of the size of the city's purse
today Mayor House will decide wheth-
er or not he can afford to garb the
traffic COPS in special uniforms.

RAIDED LUNCH STAND
Hungry Topeka Lads Could Not With
stand Temptation of Food.

There was a cosmopolitan gather
ing in the office of the probate Judge
today. Ten boys were charged with
robbing a lunch stand, on wheels, at
the Rock Island station. They were
lined up in a row along one side of
the room-some scared, some solemn
and some amused. There were three
negro boys, six Mexican boys one
white boy and one Indian boy, who
got away, in the raid.
Four of the boys were found guilty
of breaking a window and crawling
into the wagon. They passed the eat
ables out to the other six. The only
crime committed by the six was to eat
stolen food. The four were made
wards of the juvenile court The six
will be required to report next week in
order that they may be started to
school properly but were not made

The Wife of Drinking Man
Deserves Hunger, Cold and Rags,
Says Druggist Brown of Cleveland

any time This Is the time to reach
them with a home treatment. Go to
your druggist and ask for powdered
tescum. Put one powder, twice day,
in milk, coffee, tea or food. He need
not know you are doing it, for powder
ed tescum is tasteless, odorless and
cannot be detected Soon liquor does
not taste the same and it becomes
less pleasant to take drink. A poss-
ible victim is saved and knows not
how or by whom.
If you are free from the curse of
drink in your family tell your afflicted
friend about powdered tescum, or mail
this article to her without comment.
BY helping your friend you protect
your own family because every drink
er is menace to the community He
puts temptation in che way of every
man and danger in the path of every
woman. For every man who drinks
there is some woman who suffers and
you may safeguard your daughters
future by helping your neighbor to
save her drinking son.
Caution: Powdered tescum should
be given only when it is desirable to
destroy absolutely all taste for alco-
holic drink. If you see no danger in
moderate drinking cut this out, put it
in some safe place and wait until the
danger line is plainly near. The time
is sure to come when you will need
it. Powdered tescum is sold by Glen
Thistlethwaite and all other drug
gists.-Adv.

Unless She Does All In Her Power
to Break the Drink Habit.
Tells Her What to Do,

ietiS f7er Wnat TO DO.
The craving for alcohol is a disease
and drunkard is sick man. He is
victim of vicious system of sell
ing poison for profit and of almost
criminal neglect on the part of rela-
tives and friends. The wife of a
drinking man, especially, deserves
hunger, cold, rags and brutal treat
ment unless she does all in her power
to break her husband Of the drink
habit, says Druggist Brown of Cleve-
land. The habit can be broken.
Thousands of cases prove it. Every
community has its reformed drunkard.
You know one or more, we all do, and
where one is known a hundred have
been rescued before reaching the
stage where their rescue became a
topic for neighborhood gossip. When
a drinker who has been in the gutter
goes away to sanitarium to take the
cure his neighbors know about it.
But if he gradually quits few notice
it and the thousands who are saved
before reaching the gutter stage at
tract little or no attention.
The drink habit should be rooted out
at birth. The first whiff of liquor on
a mans breath should be his wife's
signal for action. No man at that
stage would consent to take a treat
ment becuse he thinks he has perfect
control of himself and can take a
drink without danger or refuse one at
