BY ELSIE WEST.

There was a time when an ugly
black stove was the work center
4 Of the kitchen. 1t was too elabor-
ately trimmed to be easily kept
clean, and Its whole ARRANGEMENT
seemed to be planned without re-
gard for convenience. The burners
were placed so far below the cook
ing-top grids that under ordinary
pressure conditions more gas was
wasted than was used, while on low
pressure. the flame could not reach
from the burner to the bottom Of
the kettle.
The clumsy, ornate stoves of
twenty-five years ago would look
strange in modern kitchens. The
old stoves were built too close to
the floor for convenience in clean.

tons which required STOPPING to
watch the baking. There was no
way to regulate the temperature
sof the oven except by the gamble
of guessing by the height Of the

baking days were so frequent!

porcelain enamel give it a dainty
appearance in keeping with the
modern kitchen. Simplicity of de.

easy to keep clean.
Cooking with these up-to.date
ranges requires little STOPPING, for
baking ovens and broiling compart-

OPPONENTS TALKS
SCORED BY c. 0.P.
La Toilette, Jr., on Rail Is
sues, and Davis, on Tariff,
Are Put Under Fire.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, September 20.-A double
attack on the opposition was made
today by Republican national cam
paign managers. National Chairman
William NJ. Butler asserted that a
recent speech by Robert VI. La Fol-
lette, jr., on the success of the Can
adian National Railways contained
many misleading statements.
Representative VIII r. Wood OF
Indiana, chairman of the Republican
congressional committee, fayed the
tariff stand of John w. Davis, as
set forth in the latter's speech al
Gary, Ind, yesterday.
In his statement Chairman Butler
quoted the younger La Toilette as
saving:
Canada has found cure. Between
1921 and 1924 she reduced agricul-
tural freight rates to prewar levels
And yet, paying substantially the
same wage scales to members of the
same railway unions, the Canadian
National Railways. owned by the
Canadian government, has changed a
deficit of s37,O00,00O in 1921, when
the system was taken over under
Sir Henry Thornton's management TO
surplus of more than $50, 900. 900 in
1923"
The statement declares that there
aX- half dozen misstatements in
this single paragraph. In 1921 the
deficit of the Canadian National Rail-
ways was S56,9S9,0 900 in
stead of $4,000, 900 Sir Henry
Thornton did not assume manage
ment until October 1922. In 1928 the
total deficit, as shown by Sir Henry S

annual report to the Canadian gov
ernment was 51,697,000."
I'm no year" the statement de-
clared, since the Canadian govern
ment commenced operation of the
railroads have they had a surplus.
The deficit has been carried by taxes
upon the people"
Representative Wood asserted that
the tariff that Mr.. Davis said he
favored was much the same as that
under the Underwood bill Speak
ing of the result of that bill, he said:
These great steel mills were prac-
tically idle. There were thousands
of steelworkers out of employment;
souphouses were opened in Gary to
feed them. The Underwood tariff bill,
which is the same character bill that
Mr.. Davis is now advocating, had
been in operation for is months, and
through it's operations the steel mills
of the country saw the demands for
their output go glimmerinE and the
steelworkers their employment 60
the same route. What happened then
will happen again. The fact is, il
the character of the tariff advocated
by Mr. Davis had been in force in
the United States for the last 60
years there would not be a steel mill
in operation in the United States
today"

Last May Mr.. Huntington COM

Mr.. Huntington named her Rosi-

Meanwhile a rumor circulates
