FIGHTING HEART" IS KEYNOTE
OF LAND0N'S CHARACTER

politics in which Landon has per-
formed most spectacularly.
Consider
In 1880, in the bitter primary
fight which defeated Gov. Clyde
Reed for denomination and
wrecked the party, Landon to
hold his State Craftsmanship un-
der party law had to be reelected
precinct committeeman in his
home town of independence. But
the the "Stand-patters" won in
independence and out went AL
fred Landon. 1t was his first
major political defeat.
That was less than six years
ago.
In 1881 he began his amazing
comeback ending with both the
Progressive and standpat factions
behind him for governor OF Kan
SaS.
In the 1882 campaign, one OF
the most unique in political his
tory, it was Landon who stole
the show. Governor Harry Wood
ring, a Democrat, who is now
Undersecretary Of War, had been
renominated. John r. Brinkley,
the Milford (KanJ goat gland
specialist, with a radio station
that doomed night and day, was
running as an independent.
Uses Common Sense"
Facing the circus campaigns OF
Woodring and Brinkley, Landon
defied political precedent by EN-
ploying no radio hookups, no ad
vertising, no billboardS and little
literature. He made no personal
attacks on either of his oppon
entS, but talked what he termed
common sense" to the voters.
When they counted the votes
Landon, bucking a Democratic
landslide nationally, had a plural
ity of 5000 votes over Woodrins
and $4,000 over Brinkley. It wa
probably the greatest ballot
scratching election in the history
of any State. Roosevelt had car
ried Kansas by $4,000 votes!

ANzAC TARIFF

SYDNEY, June II UN.SO.
Japan and America have lodged
protests with the government
against the revised Australian
tariff laws, which will represent
a spontaneous gesture in Great
Britain's favor in contrast to the
hard Ottawa bargaining.
The revision, which will be.
come effective very shortly, fol-
lowed a careful analysis which
revealed that Japan was almost
monopolizing the Australian mar

'G0OGY' BONUS
STRIKES SNAG

NORTH BEACH, Md, June IT.
One Of the most publicized men
in Maryland in recent months was
unable to obtain certification Of
his bonus bonds yesterday because
he could not identify himself to
the satisfaction Of the postmaster
here.
The man was John H. "Googy"
Carnell, one Of the principal char
acters in the recent trial Of Mrs.
Anne Lyddane on charges Of con.
spring to murder her husband,
which resulted in an acquittal last
month in Hagerstown.
Carnell is working here at q
tavern owned and operated by Mrs.
Elizabeth Weed. When he applied
to Postmaster Grund yesterday for

a certification Of his bonus bonds
so they might be forwarded to the
Treasury for redemption, the post
master refused to accept Mrs.
Weeds Identification Of her en-
ploye. He only knew of Carnell
through reading about him in the
newspapers, Grund said.
Mrs. Weed indicated that she
will take the case before Post
master General Farley.

Indigestion

Causes Much Stomach Distress
Nervous Indigestion is a condition
which retards or delays digestion, re-
sulting in the formation Of an excess

forces the stomach upward against the
heart, causing lightning jabs Of pain in
the chest, palpitation or difficult
breathing. In many cases gnawing

empty, but are relieved by eating.
Ordinary stomach medicines give

New Styles in

ByMRS. CORNELIUS BEECKMAl

ByMRS.C CORNELIUS BEECKMAN
spear MRS. Beeckman:
81 am having letter-paper made
for my own use, and 1 would like
to know whether It would be in
correct to have my name printed
on the paper and on the back
Of the envelope, like this:
MISS MARY BROWN
1894 Blank Street
Pittsburgh, Pa.
"Or should I leave the miss"
out? READER.
When you are having this kind
of letter-paper printed, with your
name and address, you should
have the Miss printed before your
name. AS you know, this kind
Of paper is for using only Tor
business and professional letters,
not for strictly social letters,
The name Of the State should be
spelled in full, not abbreviated.
There is a new style for this
paper that may interest you. Some
people now have the letter-paper
itself printed with the street,
city and State address, and the
envelope printed with this plus
the name. This means that the
paper can be used by all members
of the family, and then that each
member Of the family can have
his or her one envelope printed.

'cDear Donna Grace: I have
just started using mascara and
there is something funny about
the way get it on. The upper
IaSheS are long, and when they
turn back against my upper eye
lid, the black comes off like ink.
What do / do wrong?
PHYLLIS O."
Dear Phyllis: It seems quite
likely you are using your mas
cara too wet. When it is ap-
piled correctly, the laShes should
not be wet.
First wet your little brush
thoroughly. Then press it against
a tissue so as to remove the water
and leave it just moist. Rub 1t
across the mascara once or twice.
Then take your little magnifying
glass or go before your mirror in
a good light and stroke the laSheS
carefully to the ends. Begin at
the very roots and work slowly
and carefully so there will not be
any trace Of the mascara on the
eyelid.
The lower laSheS are not done
unless you are very expert. Then
you may stroke them so lightly
there will be just a suggestion Of
coloring, but not a black effect.
If you have not practiced this, then
it is far better to leave them
without any coloring.
When you have finished your
upper lashes, wait for a few mo-
ments until they are thoroughly
dry. Then brush or comb them
so they will be clean, and with an
upward sweep.

We are going to sympathize
with you In your discomfort and
tell you how you can find imme-
diate relief from it all. We can't
turn off the heat but we have
some advice on the way to en-
dure it. e..
Keeping the feet cool and com.
Portable as you may have guessed,
is our pet method Of keeping cool.
First and always we must have
shoes that are really the right
size and shape. They should be
carefully fitted.
Then when there are corns or
any painful bunionS or callouSeS
we must have them looked after
by a chiropodist. After that it
should be an easy matter to keep
them free from all blemiSheS.
Make q saturated solution Of
one-half cup Of EPSON salts and
ice water. Then before using it
give the feet a thorough massage
in q very thick creamy lather Of
soap and warm water. Use a lit
tie brush around the nails and
also at the heels and Soles and
let them soak in the warm water
for five minutes.
Then rinse and immerse them
In the cool EPSON salts for S or
10 minutes. Add some ice to keep
1t cold. This will reduce the
swollen parts and give the skin
q smooth firmneSS.
When they are wiped dry
massage them with tissue cream
and when that is removed dust
them thoroughly with foot powder
The following is a nice mixture:
2 ounces Of powdered tale

Nothing like it is the opinion of
those. who favor lace as the ideal
medium for summer wear. Lace
is ever so popular for smart din
ner and formal evening gowns, and
this season it is liked for daytime
too. So we have suit in navy
blue lace, the dress with q butter
fly jabot held by brilliant buttons
and the rather long jacket having
hip pockets.
Just one more evening dress to
wind up the summer festivities. A
good choice is a model in white
mouSseline de sole with q velvet
dot in sapphire blue matching the
handing on the decolletage, the
bow in front and the shoulder
straps.
Keep cool by thinking about
next winters ski fashions. Already
suggested are fur capes with hoods
attached, done in leopard or musk.
rat, also double-breasted jackets
in white furS such as sheepskin,
white lamb or white lapin with
colored leather pipings and but
tons.
Last minute calls for warm
weather clothes include a long
Sleeved black crepe dress with q
bright flower print in vivid colors
and design. The sleeves may be
pushed back to above the elbow.
The skirt has much front fitness.
Nice for wear under a coat on
coolish days.
First aid for those who possess
plain black crepe evening frockS
that are well cut and made but not
exactly new, is a jacket made Of
richly bliStered taffeta, white with
a SplaShy mauve and gray print.
It Is fitted, is Of hip length and

vOU'VE no doubt been

your perfumes than you will
from now on. For one maker
of fine French perfumes has
reduced prices sharply. Hav-
ing built up a reputation
through years of advertising,
he now has such wide distribu-

down. And so you can get two
of your favorite odeurs for
much less. LA Femme de
Paris" and "Desir de Occur"
are in small bottles that aren't
expensive, and, furthermore,
have lowered prices. They
used to sell for up to SIS a
bottle. The SIS size is now
$3.50, the $2.75 size is now
$1.35 and the $3.50 size is now
75c. Furthermore, Infusion"
the most popular Of all, is now
69c for a bottle that was for
merly 1926. These fine per-

They are the same that you

Color Choice

decide whether you want to draw
attention to the furnishing or
plan things so that they will har-

Bright colorS will detract from
the beauty Of your garden and
