One of the inconvenience of walk ing about in a dark room at night is hitting the feet against things un- seen. At the same time one does not always want to light up the room. Practical Electrics (New YOrk) de- scribes the device of a western cleo trical engineer, who places lamps under the bed and bureau. In this way the floor is brightly lighted, while the upper part of the room remains dark. Thus one can walk about In perfect comfort, and ct the same tim0 tA prtvsEE1

Popular Idea Concerning Snakes Is Not Borne Out by the Observations
 of Scientists.

Snakes don't swallow their young. The ventraI scales on female snake are controlled by muscle just behind +be head. Ordinarily they are hOri- zontal but when the mother snake scents danger she contracts the muscle mn the back of her neck, which im- mediately brings the scales to a yer ticaI position. This opens a shr under the bottom jaw, and at the same time loosens the abdominal skin, thus forming a pouch. The younger ones dart through the slit and into the pouch, and this Is what has led peo- nle to think they take refuge in the mother snakes stomach.
 It requires careful and skilled dis section to detect the pouch, because the skin shrinks when 6 snake is

 Ramsey assented. and then. as the two prepared for bed, they entered in- to a further discussion of their senior friend.

down in the democratic senatorial
primary of 1916 by an overwhelming
vote in favor of George Turner, the
plutocratic mine owner who has since
gone over to the Republicans in
spite of the fact that Bridges en-
dured the vilest campaign lies and
ISLANDERS too vile to be enumerated.
5. The Spokesman-Review knows
the foregoing facts and scores of
other similar facts and it knows that
the only way the financially power
full few of whom the Spokesman is
an able and loyal champion, can re-
tain their power in republic. is to
keep the masses divided between the
two old parties.
And since the Spokesman-Revie
understands the situation thoroughly;
since it alone made the nomination of
Poindexter possible, the foregoing
cleverest of clever editorials was evi-
IDENTIFY written for several ends:
First, to get as many as possible
Of the mistaken Farmer-Laborites
who voted for Lamping, Axtell or
Griffith, to go the rest of the way
and vote for Poindexter assuring his
election in November.
Second, to bring out Dill as the
leading opponent of Poindexter and
get as nearly as possible every "bit-
ter ender" to vote for him.
Third, which is a sort of combina-
ton Of the first two purposes-to re-
duce Duncan's vote as near to the
zero line as possible, wiping out the
Farmer-Labor party of Washington
making Independent political action
of the masses impossible the next
decade and leaving them at the
mercy of the Wall Street Republican
and Democratic parties.
The fundamental issue in this cam
paign is whether the people who do
the work-the people who are per-
forming the necessary services of
of life-shall receive their just re-
wards and rule their own destinies
Or whether they shall be ruled and
plundered by an insignificant min
ority in the great financial centers.
Even the political issue in this
state is not whether Poindexter, Dun
can or Dill shall go to the senate.
Iowa politics for fifteen years was
merely a war between the people led
by A. B. Cummins on the one side
and the railway and other big cor
porations on the other. The last
five years has been war between
Iowa progressives against the reac-
tionary Senator Cummins. The pro-
gressives of Minnesota this year are
well united behind Shipstead, the
Farmer-Labor nominee, against SEN
ator Kellogg. the reactionary, who
only twelve years ago went to the
70
progressive. Other noted statesmen
who came to the top as radicals or
progressives, and went through the
same political metamorphosis to
reactionism, are Henry J. Allen of
Kansas, Charles Evans Huges of
New York, Jonathan Bourne of Ore
gon and Miles PoindeXter of Wash
ington.
