feel the props weakening fast under

John J.. Duvall, another Republican,
is or tria! now on charges Of violat-
ing the corrupt practices act. Other
Republicans are under similar indict-
ment., and it is rumored that nine in
dictments of Republican affice holders
are to follow. Talk of corruption on
the part of the Republicans and their
is more than yeaf
old. 1t nearly caused an upset in the
elections last year. when Senator
Jim Watson. the head Of the or
ganization, just squeezed by with a
scant 10000 votes over his Demo-
cratic opponent.
The suspicion of a year ago has
been turned into a certainty today.
The only real hope the Republicans
have lays in the nomination of Al
Smith for President by the Demo-
Gratis and A thorough cleaning of the
Republican House by the Republicans
themselves. The latter means the
conviction by the Republicans them
selves of some of the men who are to
be tried, and the nomination of some
Republican for governor who has not
been connected with any of the scan
dals. a man in whom the voters have
confidence.

Still Want Coolidge.

From the point of view of national
notifies, the Republicans here are un-
settled, too. This is a Coolidge State,
although the Indiana Farm Bureau
has been opposed to the President
because of his opposition to the Nc
Nary -Haugen farm relief bill. III
the President had not issued his Il do
not choose" statement, the Indiana
delegation to the national convention
next year would have stood strongly
for Coolidge. There is a lingering
hope among many of the Repub-
licans that the President may yet,
somehow and some way, be nomi-
mated. They do not forget that in
1924. when the Republican admins
tration of the late President Harding
had been shot with scandals, Presi-
dent Coolidge was the man who
pulled the Republican party up by its
bootstrings and set 1t on its feet
again. With Mr.. Coolidge at the
head of the national ticket next year.
Republicans here figure that he
might do the same for Indiana Re-
publicanism.
With President Coolidge out of the
race, however, the belief is expressed
here that either the State will send
delegation to the national convention
instructed for Senator Watson or an
uninstructed delega ton. In this way
they hope to avoid party strife ana
to present a united front in the con-
vention. They do not believe that
Senator Watson can he nominated.
They do not see the Republican party

Treatment of Perspiration Stains
By LYDIA LIE BARON WALKER.

in their immaculateness. Should any
taint of perspiration cling to them
when they are otherwise in good con
dition. hang them in the open air. not
necessarily in the sun, for that might
fade them, but in some place where
the air will circulate freely about and
through them. II this does not make
them right, then they should go into
the tub.
Heavier FrOcks.
The frock OF silk that Is not tub
silk. or of wool or of heavy material
! that is cry cleaned instead of laun-
dered, requires special treatment.
Dress shields will prevent frocks from
getting stained. but they will not re.
| move the odor. Indeed. the very
goods from which these protectors are
made catch and hold the odor as well
as sometimes having a distinct odor
themselves when they are so damp
ened. But it is far easier to wash
the dress shields than the dresses
themselves, and they come out spic
and span. Shields with rubber in
their composition should not be put
into boiling water, but water that is
only hot enough for the hands to
be in.
Adjust Carefully.
Be sure when putting these con.
venient accessories into frocks that
they are attached exactly where you
need them most. Some women re.
quire the shields far front under the
arms. others need them far back, and
the majority just under the armpit.
Unless correctly adjusted they cannot
be expected to do full duty. Too
small shields are of little avail but
too large ones are uncomfortable.
Get the right size and put them in
right, and the result should be right.
A Good Precaution.
When a light dress is worn under
a dark coat or one with a dark lining,
the dress will get stained if the
wearer perspires. Or if the lining is
light and the dress is dark. the lin
ing will get stained. The fastidious
tailors see that dress shields, COW
cred on the outside with material to
match the lining of coats, are in the
garments before sent to their clients.
Women who see that their coats are
so cared for feel secure from these
troubles.
Boiling Water for Stains.
II boiling water is poured through
stains of perspiration while they are
still damp. the marks often will dis
appear. In any event they are les
sened, and also the odor is removed.
Powder Helpful.
When it is not possible to get boil
ing water at the time when needed,
dab the stains with talcum powder.
Leave the powder on until the spot is
dry. Then brush off. Lightly moisten
the marks with cold or tepid water
and again shake talcum over them.
This will help in most cases, though
it can scarcely be expected to take
out all the marks.
Sweeten With Fresh Air.
Be careful to hang garments out in
the fresh air frequently. especially
during the Summer. for in this way
the air does it's purifying work and
the clothes retain a fragrance caught
from the pure fresh air.

Old Age.

There has just appeared in the
news stories, an account of the birth
day of an old lady. 103 years. This
seems to be authentic because several
years ago, young minister who came
from Mrs. Sanders native town in
Germany, became interested in her
advanced age. He went to Germany
to look up this woman's birth record
1t was May 16, 1924. The reporters
found Mrs. Sanders living with a
young woman of 80. who takes in
washing for their living. The old
lady of 103 had been presented with
a chicken which was boiling on the
stove and though she was supervising
it's cooking, she was not looking for
ward to feast. II don't eat meat"
she stated.
Old age is relative. One man looks
senile at 70. Another has his mental
faculties and attends to affairs at 80.
Look at Chauncey Depew and the late
Uncle Joe Cannon. Sane living, good
health and proper food will ward off
the conquering blows of old age.
After so. muscular activity is gener-
ally less than it was at 80, and that

and sometimes inability to masticate

food intake should be gradually dimin-
ished. The keynote to good health is
simple meals eaten in moderation.
Rich sauces. cakes, puddings,
pastries and fried foods should be
discarded. Instead of steaks and
roasts which furnish protein in middle
life, milk and soft boiled eggs and
finely scraped or minced meats or
easily faxed fish can be used. Thor
oughly cooked cereals and baked
potatoes, crisp toast or zwiebach soft

Everyday Law Cases
May One Rec0Uer Damages for
Losses He Gould HQUe
Prevented?
BY THE COUNSELOR.

Frank Smith. manager of the Daily
Bakery, opened the only two cans of
frozen eggs he had left and found
them unfit for use. Rather than face
the possibility of failing to get the
cakes he was baking out on sched-
uled time, Smith decided to use them.
There was another reason that
prompted Smith to use the eggs. 1t
was the fact that he had bought
them from a responsible egg dealer
who had warranted them to be in
proper condition and suitable for the
purposes for which they We're to be
used 'If the cakes turn out bad"
thought Smith, I'll hold the egg deal
er liable"
The cakes did turn out bad. Never
theless when his customers asked for
the cake. Smith made his usual de-
fiveries.
Then the trouble began. Most of
the cakes were returned and for some
time thereafter Smiths customers
refused to deal with him.
The Daily Bakery computed the
damages from the spoiled cakes and
it's loss of trade and found the sum
to be about $500. Suit for this
amount was instituted against the
egg dealer who had furnished the
frozen eggs. The latter defended the
suit on the ground that the manager
knew before he used the eggs that
they were unfit for use and that there
fore it was the imprudent act of the
baking establishment that had caused
the losses.
