ALBANY, N. Y, July From the
ball room, where she had been posing
under the Kleig lights, Mrs. Franklin
D. Roosevelt hurried to the kitchen OF
the executive mansion last night, tied
the trailing sleeves of her green chiffon
hostess gown behind her. and proceeded
to scramble some eggs for the Demo-
cratic candidate for President OF the
United States.
And bring those frankfurters from
the ice box" she called to the butler.
THE boys will like them"
Calmly she talked of the nights VIC
tory and her own plans for the future
as she deftly beat up the eggs, whipped
them into hot frying pan and turned
them out on platter, and directed the
butler to take them to the Governor, in
his study.
Will Continue to Teach.
She will take no active part in her
husbands campaign.
"One person in politics is sufficient
for one family" she said. III do as
have always done, accompany my hus-
band on his trips and help him in every
way l can"
How about your school?" she was
asked.
Ever since her husband has been Gov
ernor, Mrs. Roosevelt has commuted be-
tween Albany and New York, teaching
classes in English and history in the
Todhunter School in New York, OF
which she is part owner.
"Ill be teaching my classes as usual
next Winter" she said, mo matter what
happens"
else in the world I'll have to wait
until I find out what can do"
The Governor, Mrs. Roosevelt said,
was prepared for anything tonight"
Never Very Excited.
ct think he took it very calmly" she
said. But I have never seen him very
excited. He is always calm, whether in
victory or in defeat"
When she was asked how she would
feel about moving to the White House,
Mrs. Roosevelt only laughed.
LAS a matter of fact, you were there
a good deal as a girl, weren't you
when your uncle, Col. Theodore Roose-
velt, was President?" some one asked
Yes" she said. when I was about
10. Col. Roosevelt was at our wedding,
you know, and gave the bride away 27
years ago. We had to be married on
st. Patrick's day, because that was the
only day he could get away from the
White House and come to the wedding" !"
In 1928 Mrs. Roosevelt was second in
command Of the womens division Of
the Democratic National Committee.
Former Gov. Nellie Tayloe Ross was
the real head Of the division" she said
last night. II only ran the Office"

conferences for adjustments in the in

demned the Smoot- -Hawley scales, say
ing, We have invited and received the
retaliation Of other nations"
Swinging into climatic finale that
brought thousands of his hearers To
their feet, with many Of them cheering

women forgotten in the political philos-
ophy of the government of the last
years look TO us here for guidance and
for more equitable opportunity to share
in the distribution of national wealth.

Il pledge you-I pledge myself-to a

In notifying the Governor of the
convention rallying to him, Senator

ticket. The fact that Garner Is from

being the Democratic vice presidential

ISELF-EFFACING FRIEND HOLDS
REINS OF ROOSEVELT CAREER
Louis Howe, Adviser Since 1910, Aided
Governor Wife in Bringing Him Back
to Public Life After Illness

He was early convinced that Roosevelt
had the qualities Of political leadership.
Friendship bound him to the man the
Democrats nominated yesterday.
When Roosevelt went to Washington
as assistant secretary of the Navy. Howe
went along as an aide. Many of the Sc
cret and confidential missions Of that
portfolio we're intrusted to the self
effacing Howe.
It was largely Howe and Mrs. Roose-
velt who directed Mr.. Roosevelts re-
turn to public life after infantile para
lysis retired Roosevelt to the sidelines.
There is a legend that Howe, with the
offer of business position on his desk,
told the Governor he would pass up
the job if Roosevelt would fight back to
public attention. Howe has never
bothered to confirm or deny the story.
II Howe has any particular interest,
other than his friend, Franklin D.
Roosevelt, none has discovered it.

They get their stomachS washed
out, they go from stomach spe-
cialist to stomach specialist,
they know all the gossip, they
delight in their friends misfor-
tunes, they complain, and in
spite of how sick they say they
are, they live and live. When
they have been sick about go
years they begin to get better
and the last 20 to 80 years of
their liveS-that is from the age
of 70 to 100-they have a right
good time.
What is the matter with these
people? When one looks at the
stomach that has been causing
all this trouble there is very
little. to see that is wrong. The
trouble is the whole body has
been put together the wrong
way.
The stomach in this asthenic
or visceroptotic dyspeptic is too
large and it hangs down too
low. 1t has too little muscular
power. The intestines sag. They
have no tone. The kidneys
float. Naturally all the muscles
are weak. Food stays in the
stomach and efficient digestion
and absorption is not carried
out. They are always fatigued
and unhappy and always trying
to do something they haven't
got strength for.

to you the other night of the
SkyScrapers, didn't I?
Sometimes I see them from
another angle. Tremendous
traps, opening and closing on
time signals. I watch the girls
and women come out of the
doors, evenings, hurrying to
their homes, happy or unhappy,
but always preoccupied with the
fear of losing their economic
independence If it is indie

Seminated lives-the life of the
skyscraper, ordered, patterned;
the life of the home-whether
it is an apartment or a fur

Possibly your friend is disre-

to make her life more bearable;
possibly she is simply trying to
bend one of the oldest forces
in the world to her own small

vitations from man, who may
be able to guarantee her job

escaping. AS for her husband,
she probably loves him. But
love, the strongest thing in the

it skaters at a touch.

grouchy husbands; with the
smell of cabbage and laundry
soap; with babies crying. Love
nourished upon occasional rou-
tine embraces and stereotyped
kisses. Love has to be stronger

Please don't get the idea that
linen suits aren't smart this
year. It's true that they were
worn in such enormous numbers
and in such cheap versions
last year that many people
thought they had been done to
DEATH" A good linen suit is
always smart, just as a nice
tailored woolen suit is sort of
a classic, and this year they are
particularly good. You remem-
ber that many of the best
dressed women wore woolen
tailleurs this spring, and those
same women will buy a good
linen suit and wear it this
summer. They are always cor
rect on the street, have a snap
to them for spectator sports,
and are practical because they
launder so beautifully. Nothing
in the world looks quite so
fresh and crisp as a Spic and
span white linen suit.
For Town or Country
Remember, though, that if you
want to make good appearance
you must have a suit of good
quality. That isn't hard though,
as this year they may be had
for $5.95, which is the price of
the one Sketched. The better
suits are made of imported
linen, the same grade that is
used for mems suits, which
lasts long, preserves a good ap-
pearance for more than a day,
and washes easily and well.
They must be well cut, seams
carefully finished, and they
must be carefully constructed
as to pockets, lapels, and other
details. Wear them with an
inexpensive cotton blouse, and
you have a very attractive cos
tune.
Lines are Slender
A good quality pre-sbrunk
men's-wear linen makes the
suit sketched. 1t is in white
only, is cut on good lines, and
fits as well as a mans suit.
The back is pinched in a bit,
the skirt has a stitched belt at
the natural waistline with no
inner belt to get out of shape,
has two pockets and has pleats
in front only, which makes it
slenderizing and slim. The
pockets are we'll tailored and
the buttons are of good quality,
another important point.
