This promises to be a busy year for
the politicians and they are starting
the work early. The tremendous ma
jority rolled up for President Hard
ing apparently has led to the belief
on the part of the Republicans that
they willy have a walkover next No
vember. This belief in some measure
may be responsible for the early and
unusual scramble for the nomina-
tions that has set in.
Practically every state will hold
state primaries or conventions and
state elections this year. In addition
10 state elections, the entire member
ship OF the house of representatives
and thirty-three- out of ninety-six
United states senators are to be
elected
The majority of the states hold
statewide primaries for the nomina-
tion of United States senators, both
parties holding their nominating cleo
tion on the same day.
The first state to hold such a pri-
mary is Indiana, which on May will
nominate Republican and Democrat
candidates for the United States SEN
ate. The senator whose term expires
in Indiana is Harry S. New, RepubH-
can. Senator New will be a candidate
in the Republican primaries for the
nomination to succeed himself.
On May 16 Pennsylvania will hold
its state primary, at which time both
Republicans and Democrats will nom
mate two candidates for the United
States senate. This is made necessary
by the recent deaths of both Senators
Knox and Penrose, whose places are
now being temporarily filled by ap-

HEART And HOME PROBLEMS
Written for The State Journal
BY ELIZABETH THOMPSON

Dear Mrs. Thompson: I am mar
ried woman aged twenty mine years
I have a husband and two sons The
boys are ten and twelve Syears old.
My husband stays out nights and
my sons go to shows and so I am left
all alone almost every night in the
week. I get very lonely for some one
to comfort me as L am in this town
without any relatives except my hus-
band and sons.
My husband never asks me to go out
any place and if 1 ask him he never
wants to go with me without a growl
Do you think he loves me? What
should I do, because there are times
when I get SO heart-broken: My life
is miserable. have no money, and SO
cannot go any gEpe plaie1 ieoNrso.,E
The fact that your husband acts
as he does is no sign he does not love
You. He has grown into bad habits
which he does not realize; time has
taught him to take you as a matter
necessary you are to his life. If any
thing happened to you, let me assure
you, he would feel his loss.
Ny advice is to accept things as they
are for the time being and to find hap
pfness in spite of conditions. Break
away from the hum-drum of house
work by trying new methods. Cook
new dishes, try to increase your skill
in cake baking, etc Your husband
may say nothing. but he will enjoy
your efforts because It is only too true
that the way to the average mans
heart is thru his stomach.
In order to get your husband to
do things for you you will have to
use great tact. Absolutely never COM
plain to him; if you must talk over
unpleasant matters, wait until he has
had his dinner and evening paper and
is in a good humor. Also if you want
q little money in order to go TO q
show with the boys. wait until after
dinner and announce that you are GO

James Barton reached into his Ia
side pocket and produced a card
which he handed to- the officer The
latter read it, grinned and to the land
lady's an1azement said, wen. that's

This young mans all right" And be-
fore the indignant landlady could re-
ply he was gone.
The girl turned to James Barton.
'Who are you?" she asked. You're
not an ordinary piano tuner. Why did
the policeman say you were all right?"
"well. III own up" said James
Barton. my names James Barton.
and my father is Edward Barton. He
just about owns the city. I guess, but
he's g nice man in spite OF that. I'm

was the only thing L knew anything
about. Upson & Company don't know
who I am and neither does anybody
else, for that matter, unless it's you.
Can you keep a secret?''
"Of course l cam" replied the girl
And now I'll tell you my family his

Her eyes were filled with tears, but
her voice was brave. James Barton
, wanted to take her in his arms then
and there and comfort her. but he re-
flected that it would hardly be the
thing to do on such short acduain-
tance. He went back to the theme of
the conversation where it had been
interrupted by the entrance OF the
landlady and the policeman.
The question is" he repeated,
what are we going to do about it?
You can't get rid of me easily, for 1
stick to what I like. And now when
am I going to see you again o.
why she began, but he inter-
rupted.
you're going to see me tomorrow
evening, and the evening after that.
and the evening after that. If you'll let

| And subsequent events proved that
James Barton, whatever might be his
faults as a piano tuner, was an accu-
rate prophet.
