Republican Protection.

The discussion throughout the cOun-
try during the last winter has centered
about candidates, and very little about
the platform. Both Republicans and
PrOgresSiveS are practically united
with regard to the general political
principles for which they stand and
which they wish TO see embodied in the
platform. These principles may be
briefly stated as follows:
(a) Protection of American lives
and property at home and abroad.
(b) Protection of American indus
tries against foreign cheap labor COM
petition.
(c) Protection of American working
men, women and children against I'M
just exploitation.
(d) Protection of American natural
resources both against private monop-
oily and against being left to go to
waste.
(e) Protection of the national treas
ury against deficit.
(f) A policy of military, Industrial
and social preparedness which shall in
crease American efficiency and enable
the United States to perform its just
share of the work of the world.-Out-
look.

COVERS FOR SWEEPING DAYS
Provision May Be Made That Will Do
Away With Much Annoyance
on Those Occasions.

To find the necessary coverings on
sweeping days has often sent the maid
scurrying about for old aprons, sheets,
towels and anything else she could
lay her hands on to use for this pur-
pose
A friend of mine has solved the diff
ficulty in this way: She purchased a
quantity of gray cambria andmade from
it large sheet with which to cover
the beds and sideboard; smaller COW
crs for dressers and toilet tables were
made and still others, in suitable
shapes, were designed to put over the
lamps, mantels and the like. She also
made from the cambria a bag to keep
the covers in; this was hung in the
broom closet.
While light, the cambria formed a
perfect protection against dust, and
simple shaking when the sweeping
was finished freed the covers from the
dust that had settled upon them, so
that they, required washing but once
a month. The use of these dust COW
ers saved much valuable time and ex-
ira work. The cost of a set is moder-
ate and it does not take long to make
them.-Pittsburgh Dispatch.

Republicans Confident.

The total number of ballots cast four
years ago was trifie in excess of fif-
teen million and was 1874 of the cOun-
try's population. The average percent
age to population represented by the
popular vote in presidential years since
1876 has been 1911. 1t is evident that
the popular vote in 1912 was nearly
per cent or some two million five
hundred thousand below normal. Sure
" the revival of interest in the duties
of citizenship will lead to fuller rep
resentation of the people at the polls
in 1916 than in 1912-and this is like
ly to help the candidacy of Hughes at
least as much as that of Wilson. All
things considered. it is not wonderful,
that confidence in the retirement of
Democrats and the restoration of Re
publicans to power is noticeable in
every direction.

AGAIN IN HARMONY
Break in Republican Party's Rank
Is Over.
With Roosevelt and Taft Giving Cor,
dial Support to Hughes Triumph
in November Would Seem to
Be Assured.

Mr.. Hughes and Mr.. Roosevelt spent
two hours and half together recently,
pleasantly as both declared at the
close of the CONTEMPLATION. The time
was probably not equally divided But
that does not matter. Mr.. Roosevelt
had good deal to say, and is not cas-
lily headed when he sets off on mono
logue. Mr.. Hughes could afford to
listen. His vis-a-vis at table had come
pledging support; and TO a candidate
for office support is always welcome.
Interviewed on Long island, Mr.. Taft
expressed pleasure at the way things
are taking shape. declared his willing
ness to help, and predicted Mr.. Hughes
election. He thinks the support of Mr..
Roosevelt will strengthen the Repub-
lican ticket, and. replying TO an in
CURRY, said he would not object to APP
pearing with Mr.. Roosevelt on the
same platform.
To a large extent. therefore, if not
wholly, the war is over. 1t was fierce
while it lasted, and the damage consid-
cradle. An item of the damage from
the viewpoint of the Republicans, was
the bringing In of Mr.. Wilson, about
whose course In Office Mr.. Hughes, Mr..
Roosevelt and Mr.. Taft are in perfect
agreement. Each has expressed him
self for publication, and each is certain
to elaborate his opinion as the cam
paign progresses.
But agreement as to Mr.. Wilson is
not the only thing that brings these
three men together. The Republican
platform is satisfactory TO all three.
Mr.. Roosevelt would have accepted
nomination on it, and Mr.. Taft would
not have changed a word. Mr.. Hughes
as the nominee is on the eve of giving
full approval TO all that his party
promises. Mr.. Wilson won against a
divided opposition. Can he hold
against a united one?

To Serve Nations Best interests.

With the Progressive party whole
heartedly in line with the regular Re
publicans and the candidate accept
able to all alike, with the country look
ing to the Republican party to save
them from the perils Of the uncertain
ty of the Democratic administration,
the nation unquestionably will cast an
Choir in Republican waters next No
vember.
The entire people are called upon
to enter into the contest with the
assurance that by supporting the Re
publican program and candidates, as
the Progressives have determined to
do. they will thereby be giving sup
port to the highest interests of the ma
ton, and promoting best its welfare
in critical respects. This Bull Moose
statement removes the last doubts as
to Republican return TO power.

REQUIRES CARE IN MAKING
Tea. to Be at its Best, Must Be Pre-
pared Under Exactly the Proper
Conditions.

There is practically no nutriment IN
tea. though there are small amounts
of mineral salts. The principal ingredi-
ents are caffein, which stimulates the
nerves; volatile oils, which give the
flavor, and tannic acid which retards
the digestion!
The Japanese have made religious
and aesthetic ceremonial Of tea-drink-
ing. and, like the mineral waters whose
efficiency is found to depend largely
on the change and rest accompanying
their drinking, the afternoon ten has
its psychological as well as It's physi-
illogical reasons for the pleasant re-
suits produced.
Like all beverages which refresh by
stimulating tea should be used with
great discretion.
Less tea is used to the cup than in
the case Of coffee-one-half to one tea
spoonful as compared to one table
spoonful A mild cup of tea well made
will not hurt a healthy person, and, al
though the stimulating principle is the
same, tea does not seem to have so d.
rect or so pronounced an effect on the
central nervous system as does coffee.
Children, people with gastric troubles
or those who are nervous should not
drink tea.
Green tea contains much more tan
mic acid than black tea. Be sure 1t
does not boil or stand on the leaves If
you use 1t.
Hard or stale water does not make
good tea. 1t should be freshly drawn
and freshly boiled.
Boiling any tea is a crime. The caf-
fem is readily soluble and is quickly
obtained in solution, Boiling or long
standing on tEo leaves only results in
more of the injurious fannie acid be-
ing extracted and spoils the flavor as
well as making the beverage more
harmful.
