CERTAINTY AGAINST UNCER- TAINTY. 1f anyone in Massachusetts was re- werving his decision between Mr. Taft and Mr. Roosevelt, he ought to have no trouble in reaching it after hearing the recent speeches by the two men. Their utterances should not leave the least shadow of doubt as to which man and which is unfit, the for the high- nd. They are & incerity it is fit, est office In different in possible to imagine. President Taft did of his office by s talk to the Bay as lower the names in not calling state people. ok up, one by one, the varigus wick- charges which had been made against him and the administration, and exposed the falsehood in each one.

He proved his as- sertione, On the other hand, ex-President Roosevelt confined himself to fault ing, attacked without proof the statements of the president and re- sorted to the practice of calling name: His attitude nasty, especially so when he re e president biting “the fed him. This particular expression left no doubt that Roosevelt considered him- self the big boss with motives as base | as any against whom has been associated and now rer tes because they are unfriendly to him. He made no answer to any of the presidents cha except to deny, and confined his speeches to heaping abuse and appealing to the risibilit of the He offered nothing to con- as the people have found out it that they want and not fiction in reaching their decision. The speeches have no doubt won many votes for President Taft. The contest has shown that the pres- ldent fa e issues and there ig no uncertainty where he stands.

Bvery now and then the Automobile Club of America sends out not of caution against places where speed traps, mufiler cut-outs and trafiic re ulations are to be found. In the last st there are thirteen Connecticut towns included, wh means that or- dinarily no attention has to be paid to the law in other places in the state, or the authorities take no part in en- forcing the law. Those thirteen towns deserve to be listed and be held up to the view of the whole state and not alone the auto drivers. If there are thirteén towns in the state t are not afraid at to enforce the law concerning autos, it is only natural to presume that thoge very towns re v good places to live in, be they un- doubtedly enforce the law in general, Why an auto driver should have any more right to violate the law than any other class of citizens is hard to understand. The caution notices applying to but thirteen towns out of the 168 does not speak very well for e in gen- eral, nor the auto driv ther, for the notices are simply an invitation to violate the law elsewhere. How little the automobile law is respected can be seen almost any day. There is speed- ing wherever the opportunity offe muffler cut-outs are freely used and there are very few drivers who p the least attention to a still car, Cars slam through the b section of the city, regardless of t fic or people. Auto d are seemingly care free as Af- ng and riding far as the law is concerned. The thirteen eiti 1 towns, which include Berlin Dari, Greenwich, Groton, Hartford, Meriden, New Lon- Noroton, Norwalk, Ridgefield, ton, Westbrook an example to t nd Winsted, e rest of the Auto regulations amount to nothing if they are not enforced, The law should be all the c on necessary for the autoists who are ordinarily in he class of law x-o~p ting « J April 8, 1911, Colonel Roosevelt said at Spokane: “I am not an aspiran for anything becanse I have had ev- ervthing, 1 am ahead of the game.

To freshen black kid gloves when the outer surface has rubbed off: Mix a few drops of sweet oil with the same quantity of black ink and apply to the rubbed spots. To remove paint, wash the paint well with hot water and washing soda, then rub well all over with a flat piece of pumice stone, using plenty of water. After drying, a fine finish can be given by means of sandpaper. Always put a small piece of crust in- to the frying pan before frying fish.

It is one of the most trying ordeals for the woman who does her own laundry work to go from a hot room filled with steam and vapor to the chilling and bitter winds outside. A er being put through the wringer ev- ery piece should be carefully shaken out, and all pieces of the same kind may be placed together. If clothes are put into the basket in proper order and condition, the work of hanging them out is reduced at least one-half. They also dry in better snape and are easier to iron. Clothes pressed into folds in the wringer, then hung upon the line still in wrinkles and dried that way are exceedingly troublesome when they reach the ironing board. It is an ax- iom of the housekeeper that “work properly begun, is half done.” Certain- 1y the laundress who flings clothes on the line regardless of tne shape in which they dry has lost sight of fu- ture advntages that may come from a better way of handling.
