A Boston paper says. “In the com- pleteness with which President Roose- velt's congressional influence is now broken it must be a source of incon- | solable grief to his opponents that so many of the great measures which had stood for a generation dwarf-like and dumb before the power of special interests in the senate should in the days of his power and prestige have actually written on the statute from which they can never be moved, The pure-food law would be laughed out of the senate today, it had been sidetracked for th twenty-seven years of its considera- tion before Roosevelt, but no amount | of hilarity will secure its repeal to- day, It is only one of a long list of been books i ative aecomplishments of the ‘| Roosevelt administration, which are | where his detractors cannot get at th It is of some historic signifi- ince, however, that the man fn Au- gusta to whom all eyes are now turn- ng, owes a peculiar and fully recog- loyaity to Mr. Roosevelt, and of ze e the one reason why he should not t Mr. Taft has always been insist- R acted tos honer o sacks ent.

Those citizens who were so disturb- ed because thers was to be a vacancy #n the congressional delegation of Con- mecticut, appear to be still more dis- turbed to find that there is not going to be a vacancy—Congressman Lilley will save the state $30,000 In eight weeks by preventing e spectal eleation —4is he 15 capable of being congress- man and govérner for so short a peri- od. This is the way of a strict bus‘ness man who looks out for the people's interests and it is said to have baen euggested as well €s approved by Gov- ernor Woodruf?. This is what a despatch says: “Former Governor Woodruff of Con- mecticut I8 sald to be responsible for tting the idea into Lilley's head. he proposed to resign as con- gressman, Woodruff is quoted as hav- ing sald: “What's the use? It's only eight ‘weeks before the new eongressman, Major John Q. Tflson, will be sworn 1 Keep the office till then.” “All right” Lilley replied; “T guess I win” ‘There may be a few ambitious peo- ple who may conscientionsly think * that this s wrong—In fact that it is a shockingly had precedent, but the people are inclined to look upon it as the governors do, as a wise and eas: method of saving $30,000. Those who are inquiring how George 1. Lilley can be in Chnnecticut and Washington at the same time should calin their nerves, for if he is needed at Washington he can be spared and if he is not he can attend to the af- fairs of Connecticut.

Now New London, with an appropri- ation of $50,000 by the county and $100,000 of its own, finds that it not begin to erect the building whi is needed there. It will, without doubt, take a quar- ter of a million, or even more, to build & municipal building which shall be fully equipped with fireproof vaults and calculated to mest the require- ments of the city of New London for e half century.

The proper method for making sage tea is to take a handful of sage, crush it and hoil it for three hours | an ola iron pot. When it boils down add more. water, and there should be one pint of water after the tea has boiled. ('ook a handful of tea, not | chemically colored, add the juice to the sage tea and a teaspoon of com- mon salt. Boil both until there is a pint of liquid.

These pendant, earrings graduaily grew until they ‘reached an extreme length of five Inches, a woman of so- clety appearing in the Metropolitan opera house at ome of the first per- formances, a few weeks ago, with earrings from London of this ridicu- lous measurement.

It is wise to keep every linen in & special drawer or for use in emergencies. It will be 0 some day for bandaging up an injury. To Remove Iron Rust. Iron rust can be removed with salt mixed with a little lemon juice. For Cleaning Matting. Straw matting “ould never be washed in anything but warm water and salt. Cartridge Paper for Pots. Instead of crepe paper, cartridge paper makes a serviceable and at- tractive cover for the plain flower pot. The paper after being cut may be held into shape by the brass_fasten- ers which come for such purposes. Add Pretty Effect. Olives, salted nuts, glace and crys- tillized fruits in 1 silver or cut glass dishes placed at regular inter- vals around the centerpiece add great- Iy to the decorative effect of the table. of old Remover of Stains. Bither kerosene or benzine is ex- cellent for removing stains from zine. Cord for -Shades. The life of & window shade is per- ceptibly lengthenad by adding the ring and curtain cord. Then, when the shade is moved up and down, one takes hold of the cord rather than the curtain itself. This not only saves the telltale marks on the materfal, but there is no dan- ger from tearing. Gold Thread for Lace. The simplest lace may be made strikingly attractive by outlining the design in gold thread. Plain valen ciennes, itself quite inexpensive, treat- ed in this fashion will enrich any dressy costume. Ink for Gloves. A person who freshens her black kid gloves successfully says'that she uses a few drops of good black ink in some olive ofl; this she applies to the roughened or worn spots and places the gloves in the sun to dry. Clean Black Silk. Black silk may be cleaned by spong- ing the dirty parts with the water in which potatoes have been boiled. To Keep Cabbage Fres| Frequently one uses but haif a cab- bage. To keep the remainder fresh, wrap In some of the loose leaves and in damp paper. Put in a cool for many da To Clean Tan Shoes. Did you know that your tan shoes can be easily and quickly cleaned by rubbing them over thoroughly with a woolen rag wet with turpentine? | First see that all the dust is removed | from the shoes. Trim Lamp Wicks. If the lamp wick moves up and down with difficulty. a simple remedy is to pull out a few threads at either side of the wick. Hatpins Come in Sets. Hatpins mdy now be found in cases containing a set—usually five is the number. Cards Shorter but Wider. While the size of a woman’s calling cards varies by actual measurement but little from that of years ago, the cards are now a trifle shorter and just a fraction of an inch wider. The ef- fect s to make a card almost square. Baking Pie Crust. When baking crust for lemen, cus- tard, or other one-crust ple, turn pie tin upside down, mold crust neatly up- on the outside and bale. At the Doll Hospital. Nearly all the department stores now have doll hospitals, where the decrepit dolly may undergo a surgical eperation and be made as good as new. Hallmark of Neatness. Nothing more quickly marks the re- finement of the young girl than the care she takes of her toilet articles, especially her comb and brush. If these are kept scrupulously clean by {frequent washings, it is the hallmark of neatness. Mending of Plaids. Try several shades of pink together in one needle wihen fending’ plaids or checks, using colors to harmonize with the predominating tones of the ma- terfal. The mended part scarcely will show after it is neatly pressed. Metal Danglers for Sash. Many a fancy old-time buckle 1s be- ing called into play to fasten the &i- rectorie sash a: the back. The ends of the sash, too, are often finished with danglers of metal. Russia Calf Shoes Stylish. Shoes of Russia calf are stylish, They border on the golden browns. The olive tinge is quite out of favor. Pine Bookcases. Bookcases are made of plain pine wood and stained to harmonize with the furnishings of the room. If the amateur cabinet maker does pyrogaphy she makes a simple con- ventionalized design on the ends, and stains it a different color. Sometimes she cuts out a colored figure from a magazine cover, pastes it on, and shellacs over the wholc piece, so that it appears to be painted into the wood. How to Save Lemons. If, when using lemon for flavoring, you need only half a one, put the other half on a plate and cover with a glass tumbler. This excludes the air and prevents it from drying up or getting moldy. Watch Back Hair. Never arrangeyour hair without a hand glass. Remember that the side and back view of a coiffure Is as in- portant as the front. Carry Drirking Cup. ‘When traveling do not fail to put a cup in your bag. Many~ a person has suffered from using the drigking cup which is pub- lic property om the train. Folding paper cups may be had for @ small sum, can be thrown away at the end. v have the strong point in their favor of not taking up much space. Painc Rusty Wire.

As soon as the opportunity is afferi. ed apply two coats of gray paint Eyelets for Bags. Eyelets in the Wallachian embroid ery done on crash in a contrasting shade of silk make a simple but effect - ive pattern for fancy bags. . Oatmeal a Cosmetic. A perfumed oatmeal water is good for the complexion, and this any wom- an can make at home. it needs only a bowl of boiling water ave a whitish appearance. g Grooming is an Art. Beat of grooming, correct polse and tg:fity to make the best of one’s gocd ints count for more than a beautiful face. Any woman with a passable face may be attractive and even be con- sidered beautiful if she will cultivate the art of being well groomed. Tea as a Hair Curl A solution that soretimes will aid the hair in curling is half a pint of strong tea, diesolving in it eleven grains of carbonate of potash, § The hair {s wet with this whiic dressing, laid in waves and held so while drying _Borax as Bleacher.

Editor: In The Bulletin this time four years, as per the files, ‘T voiced the opinion of citizens of the better class in Hartford, of which I know a few, and hear from many, that not one city, one block, one business should have both United States senators from Connacticut. By the logic of votes (which the wise call Praagmatism), and 1 hope by the logic of conscience, and judgment, Governor Bulkeley aft- erwards came to the same conviction. By two from one spot the state did not get fairness, nor could.it get strength. With one from the great capitalistic captial, another might well be where the deep-sea sailors land from every cHme; like Jeffries, Connecticut stands more four square to all comers with legs well braced apart. In that contention against the mega- lomania of a few in Hartford, but for ite best interests, most of us had no favorite candidate. As I stood in the lobby, a mere public-spirited citizen, 1 remember how the voting wavered as We w;tched how the veering flaw Jid low The smoke now North now South. Then would been a_psychologic mo- ment for Mr. Hill and his friends to have discovered his great abilities and to_have put him into the running. By a leader, inside, T am assured he could have had the track. Perhaps agalnst the capital of the capitalistic interests of the cap- ital, they would have had to put up too much effort and too much money. 1t Is sometimes harder to scratch than to snatch—when some other hen has scratched up the worm. T have just received a circular, Why Congresman E. J. Hill should represent Connecticut in the U. S. senate. Pre- sumably the circular had Congressman Hiil's imprimatur. The outside print is of a size to appeal to a grocery clerk and so 1s the grammar and style of the inside. As I read Representative Hill's picture. his capable of representing one-fifth of Connectleut's interests in the house, to wit, the mercantile, bank- ing and business interests. There are a great many other interests which It =eems to me he does not represent. I should be sorry to see our finer, broad- er, long-distance interests unrepresent- ed in the senate. It Is these in which we are more likely to be unrepresent- ed. While Senator Bulkeley s there for banking, mercantile and business interests, I do not see the need of Sen- ator HAll. Tf Mr. Hill will come square out and say that Senator Brandegee wastes his time on cards, soclal pleas- ures good living and good lvers. and e inattentive to business, we will hear him. If e are presented with two pictures, “Before Taking,” and “After Taking.” I do not have any decided preference for Lilley, who has got busy. over Brandegee, who has kept stiil. (1 voted for Lilley delegates and the straight ticket at elect! ) When it took Frank Brown and Stiles Judson, those expert swimmers. to pull out Lil- ley from skating on new ive. T don't suppose 1t encouraged Brandegee to try making a bender. While the char- iot of Israel and the horsemen thereof have picked up Tilley, it couldn't he expected to pick up two in the same gubernatorial term. ‘We should be far from telling United States senators that for the future they cannot davote themeslves in forward national interests, but must he loaking behind for stabs in the hack and as- saults in the zear.

That Brandegee and Bulkeley have not heen willing to put Connecticut wages on or near Filipino wages gets my commendation, if not gll the cler- gymen’s. We are to lead: we must be fed. The clergymen are not ready to take salarles on a Filipino basis. They could not buy their books. That Brandegee did not help select Taft is the most measly call down that 1 have heard yet. Where are ws at, if the three branches of government are not to be kept distinct; If every senator is to be an echo of a coming or a retiring president? On the vhole, it looks to me as it this getting Mr. Hill into the running was a pulling of Mr. Hill's leg, as to political influence, if not as to money, and as if the whole business was a re- turn match of those who got beaten, as they ought to have been, when the plan of a few to have Hartford the seat of empire was knocked out by the elec- tion of Brandegee.
