Chicago, Oct. 22.-Betting commits
sioners in this city, New York, Wis
consin and other points are finding
this a hard year as far as the election
is concerned. Senator Harding is
proving such an overwhelming favorite
that odds as high as s to l on the Re-
publican candidate are being offered.
Jim O'Leary, the Chicago betting
commissioner who has handled wagers
on the presidential campaign for the
past thirty years. generally considered
one of the most conservative pencilers
in the country, is holding his book
at to on Harding and 2 to 1 against
Cox.
R. c. Fabb. who has handled cleo
ton bets in the New York Wall street
district for years, estimates that less
than $4,000 has been wagered this
year as against 100000 usually
posted by this time.
w. L Darnell. another New York
broker, offered $4,000 to 5000 on
Harding, and was offered a chance tc
place it at to l by Cox adherents.
Wisconsin betters were offering odds
of to that Harding would carry the
Badger state by $4,000. with some Of
fering to 1 that Harding and Cool
idge will carry the national ticket.
1t is expected that the real bets OF
the campaign will be posted next
week, when the final reports of the
field managers of both parties will
have been filed.

How Many Men Keep
Youthful Looking

1t is well known that within recent years
the men have become extensive patrons of
beauty specialists and masseurs Not only
the fastidious, but men generally who have
a care for personal appearance. This has
also led to the employment by many or
nome methods calculated to enhance or
preserve physical attractiveness, especially
by those who abhor beauty parlors." OF
these, perhaps the most widely used is the
mercolized wax treatment, which explains
the mystery of the silver haired gentleman
with the bOyish face. The mercolized wax,
obtainable at any drug store, is applied the
same as cold cream, only not rubbed in.
This gradually absorbs the dead and half
dead cuticle in tiny particles, revealing
the fresher, healthicr-hued skin beneath
To secure best results many apply the wax
at night, washing it off in the morning.
Women not only encourage husbands in
this. but use the treatment themselves.
To keep away wrinkles and flabbiness
many men use, after shaving preferably,
simple lotion made by dissolving an ounce
or powdered saxOlite in half-pint OF
witch hazel This gives splendid results.

Big Hit Here.
Pageant Represents Epochs of
Civilization.

One of the most elaborate and ar
tistic entertainments ever produced in
Topeka, the pageant THE Passing of
the Kings" presented by the Rota

Thursday night. Hundreds of To-
pekans witnessed the first showing of
the pageant, which is to be repeated
tonight.
Thru nine principal scenes, inter-
spersed with dance dramas, the pag-
cant represents epochs of civilization
from ancient times to the modern
period. Each scene includes interest
ing singing and speaking roles, as well
as well-trained choruses and minor
parts. 4 large part of the home tall
ent is used in the production, which
has been directed by Sheldon Holcomb
and Gertrude Mcclure Holcomb of
Boston, well known for their ability
in such work.
The work of Gertrude Mcclure
Holcomb as Vengeance" in the Thor
scene is particularly impressive, and
the Thor scene. the particular effort in
training of Mrs. Holcomb, was the fea-
ture of the pageant. 1t was well given
and well received. Walter thinner

tenor, contributed greatly to the

among the best. Bethany girls in the
Victory dance following the Indian
scene were among the most attractive
of the dancers altho their dance was
no better received than that of the
Washburn girls in the Tyranny and
Freedom" dance.
A spirited touch was given at the
beginning of the pageant by a group of
Knights of Pythias as Greek athletes,
whose colorful costumes and excellent
performance won much favor.
Proceeds from the entertainment
will be used by the Rota club for civic
benefit

RECOUNT THIS WEEK

Marshalltown Club Planning to
Count Population in Probably Two

Members to Be Enumerators-WiII
Take Figures &C. Washington.
The work of retlking the census in
two districts Of the city as the basis
for asking recount OF the entire
city awaits the printing of necessary
supplies. II Is probable the recount
will be made this week.
It IL necessary only to select one
or two districts and If the enumera-
ton to be made by the Marshalltown
Club, shows an increase of 2 per cent
over the returns of the official census
takers, the government will order a
recount Of the entire city.
A. f. Hull has been made chairman
of the committee in charge Of the re-
count, and 1t is likely two districts
in the Third ward will be selected for
the canvass. Members Of the Mar
shalltown Club will be the enumer-
ators. The recount will be done In
one day and the records Immediately
sent to Washington in charge Of some
one delegated to act as a special emu
merator.
