This is a situation which was hardly expected from that state, but it indi- cates that as far as progression is con- cerned they are satisfied with it, and heir opposition is simply personal. In fact, the campaign which Roosevelt has conducted has been a personal one. He has set up as the most prom- inent planks in his platform, judicial recalls, and I. Under that, by his elec- ton, the country would completely surrender itself to him, and it is noted n the attitude of Illineis that they did not indorsa judicial recail in standing by the Colonel. The “I” indirectly| aught them strong in the middle west | and Pennsylvania, and the h,xpnom‘l | power had its effect when he talked of s past and his promises. How the can favor Roosevelt on the Taft plat- form is hardly understandable. As the delegations now stand and Rooseveit as to those ‘d or known to favor either c: Taft is well in the lead. He| has delegates, with Roosevelt backed by 201. The president needs| i 9 delegates to give him the nnm-; in- date, 281 1 and there is nothing which can prevent it, from the present out- look. Rooseveit men.are making every effort and have now resorted to the| underhand method of tampering with the pledged delegates for Taft. This is evidence that the Roosevelt campaign s run on the principle to win, regard- less of the cost financially or morally. THE WIRELESS OPERATORS. When the many suggestions for i2g- islation to avert ocean disasters, like the loss of the Titanic, are being made, e testimony before tae senate inves- 1 1 ccilumittee shows that atteu- tion =houtl be given to regulations fo the wireless operator on ocear and coasting steamships. In two instances, in the testimony, it is shown thut un| perator should be on duty at all times | nd that his first duty should be to epswer calls to the ship. ride testified that he was * with his accounts to answer the call to the Titanic from the Californian, and that very call, it is believed, was | the warning against the iceberg which the Titanic struck, “Too busy” with other things seems to fit in general the condition of things on the Titanic. for the warning of ice from the bow watch went by unheeded by the officer on bridge. The long hours which the operators are obliged to put in on some of the| ships was also brought out by the tes- | timony, showing that in that line of | work, as well as with railroad men, | bad accidents are likely to follow the loss slecep. The operator on a steamer within 45 miles of the Titanic had gone to bed exhausted only a few of minutes before the Titanic’s “C. Q. D.” | cannot always do as he pleases if he signal was sent out.

In the political contest the honors were about even last week, Taft get- ting Connecticut, Delaware and Ha- wail and the centrol of the lowa state delegation, while Roosevelt finished the week by getting Nebraska and Oregon, both of which states had been figured as likely to go for him. The state conventions will soon be over and in several Important states the contests are to be bitterly fought. So aggres- sive has become the Roosevelt cam- paign and the unwarranted assault on the Taft administration that the presi- dent has found it necessary to get into the game himself and will make a hurried trip to Massachusetts on Wed- nesday. This is an unusual thing and may be said to be in violation of the ‘White house tradition, but it is justifi- able in view of the situation, where, unless such a step is taken, the pres- ident would be said to admit the Roosevelt claims. Massach tts is planning a state-wide campaign pre- ceding the primari President Taft to “put through the ropes” the unfounded claims of the ex-president. That he will do it with- in the dignity of his office and free from the personalities which have characterized the opposition, is the be- lief of the supporters of the president. He will, no doubt, confine himself to the administration and policies, as on those the issue hinges. In maintaining the office, the presidént has again shown the attitude which the greatest office on earth calls for in the minds of the dignity of the American people, and it quite in contrast with the level to which his opponent in a party campaign has de scended. Others have contested the campaign of presidents but they never set forth their differences from rear platforms in a score of states to brealk the unwritten law that no president shall have a third term. EVIDENCES OF NATIONAL GROWTH. It may be a little early to concede the number of votes the presidential candidates will receive in the fall, but tistics of the United figured out that more than n(n cen million persons will record their votes for president in the cam- | paign of the present year, Prior to 1888, no governmental official record of votes cast for president existed, but an act of congress in 1887 made it the duty of each state to report to| e government. According to the ab- stract this will be the first time the vote will go over fifteen miilion, having been 14,887,000 in 1908 and 11,- it 381,000 in 1888. This shows that in 1908 one vote for every 598 people, was cast, agdinst 6.10 in 1904, and 5. in 1888. The statistics further show that the verage per capita wealth of the coun- try has grown from $307 in 1850 to over 0 in 190 the money in circulation in from $12 per capita in 1911, and the bank clea ion in 1887 to 159 . or a tripling of the bu ears. The individual & poeits in banks were increased from 2 billion in 1875 to practically 16 billion in 1911, while the number of bank depositors has increased from a million in 1866 to 9 1 millien last year. Inan- other period will be including the de- positors and deposits in the postal sys- tem. The export of domes products from 100 million in 1840 to over 2,000 million in 1911, and the incre: of the value of manufactures produced iu the| country from one willion in 1 0 20 1-2 billion in 1910, are all evidences of the best kind of national growth along a diversity of lines.

When beating eggs separately, the whites first and then add a tea- spoonful ¢f the beaten whites to the volks soon after starting to beat them and they will not stick to the egg beater and will grow lighter much quicker than when beaten without the addition of the bit of beaten whites. Comparatively few people realize that the gas bill may be very percepti- | bly reduced by exercising care to light the gas properly. Hold the lighted match to the burner, then slowly turn on the gas. Most people turn the gas on full force and then apply the match. A slight explosion ensues, which af- fects the meter and sends it rapidly forward. It is often difficult when you are hanging a heavy picture to get the screw to fasten into the wall, especial- ly when the wall is only plaster. Try this plan: Enlarge the hole, wet the edges all around, fill in with moistened plaster of paris, and screw the nail into the plaster while it is soft. You will find the screw quite firm as soon as plaster is dry.

NEEDLEWORK NOTES. ‘When your thread persists in knot- ting unthread your needle and thread| it from the other end. It will cease to trouble you. In selecting draperies for window do not neglect to look at the fascinat- ing cotton goods in the dress depart-| ments. The mercerized fabrics as well | as the voiles lend themselves admir-| ably to this purpose. | Bits of court plaster are nearly as useful in protecting the ends of new gloves as they are in mending worr places. They are put in the tips of | the fingers and both prevent the nail| plercing and the threads ripping. To save the top of a stocking frou being worn out by the supporters fastening attach a small brass ring to a piece of tape and sew the tape to the stocking. Clasp the supporters through the rings, using rings that will allow them to slip through. Make generous seams under and ov- er the arms, and generous hems on the closing at the back. Make the but- tonholes in a fly, and thus the goods is not damaged, and the walst can widened as well as lengthened if nec essary. Have plenty of tucks in the| little skirts, and turn In the ends of} the belt, stitching with a fine needle/ and fine thread.

Use & solid crechet stiich or, what is new er, every third stitch, mstead of ta ing the upper stitches as a regular| single crochet, go into the heart of the | stitch. This makes a more open ef-| fect and 18 not hard to de. Use a fine| needle and crochet firmly, so the belt does not stretch so much in launder- ing. The chief advantage of the belts is they can be tubbed every day If sofled, SIMPLE FRUIT PUDDING.
