The republican national conventi at Chicago ended, as forecasted for several days previous, in the renomi- nation of William H. Taft for p dent of the United States. This selec- tion appeals to the thinking peopl and those who have the welfars of the country at heart as the wisest and only course to pursue. It mgarks the close ! of ome of the history making cam- palgns and one in which the prophe of Lincoln, made in 1837, came true, and his advice was followed. It was at Springfleid, Ill, that Lincoln sald: “Is it unreasonable to suspect tha some men possessed of the loftiest senlus, coupled with the ambition to Push it to its utmost stretch, will at mome time spring up amongst us? And when one does it will require the peo- Ple to be attached to the government and Iaws and generally intelligent to fruetrate his deslgns.” Marking one of the bitterest paigns and conventions, the nomination lay between the two leaders. President Taft made the fight and won the con- test, he being the only one to whom the nomination could logically go in the support of the party principles which he stands and fought for. He was fought by all manmer of under- handed methods and assault, but the opposition leader was unable to con- trol his forces in the depths of radi- calism to which some were willing to g0. Not only wise but welcome is the selection of President Taft. His aa- ministration shows him io be a far- sighted, prudent exscutive, In whose hands the reins of government are safe, His accomplishmentsl to de committed to progres- sane actlon but not by of radicalism. This con- never been better fllustrated action of the contestants convention period. Presi- 44 not dfsgrace his cs appearing at Chicago and to drive the delegates, but how ineffectnally his opponent, stung 0 the quick by his impending defeat, to stem the tide against was evidenced by the characteris- display of the demagogue and the The : i § ! Eii H i ? I nomination of President Taft tone will have the backing of the party at large, It can. not heip but impress. It even stirs the ex-presifent to hold a rump conven- tion for his own personal bepefit and in the interests of such men as Pin- chot, Garfield, Munsey and Perkins, who seek revenge, office or protection of interests, I's a plunge which shouid prove fatal. No man is greater than Bis party. NEED EARLY TRAIN. For many years and probably sin-e the road was opened, there has been an early morning train over the pres- ent Central Vermont road, which, ac- cording to the new schedule going into effect today, has been taken off, and there is now no way of getting north along the line of the railroad until nine o'elock. This i3 naturally bring- ing forth much protest ali along the lne, It is an embarrassing situation for the business houses which have been doing business over that line for years and years, and getting the ben- efit of the early train, to be obliged to wat four hours for the carrying of their rapresentatives and mall, Whole- salers who have used that early train extermtvely for express matter likewise muffer from the handicap, The serfous delay in the arrival and despatch of mall i8 an fmportant jtem which not only affects all the stops abo but It dalays the arrival of ¢ mall here in the morning ov " half-hour, making the box and carrier delivery for the entirs city just that such later, whils north of here it will be four hours late, The same wituation alse applies north of Wil- Mmantle and bears out the alleged report that the read would cater only to fte freight business if it could ve 1te wish, An effort was made (o take the train off & dozen years ago, but it proved nmudessstul, The present sehedule is meeting with strong oppositlon, The board of trade will, through its com- mittee, work for the replacing of the early frain while an appesl fo the publie utilities commission sheuld bear fruit, Instead of catering to the seesmmodation of the pubiie, Lhis is a wtep dn the oppesite direction, o detri= mentsl chenge and an unappreciative meve for (he expresses which are i s put on, There should at least be o shovt train running a8 far as Palmer, Happy theught for teday; The fast young man is pet always the one win takes the cake well prepared as far as that education goes, but even If it is necessary to make a great sacrifice the high school academy should be entered for a continuation of the building of an edu- cation the foundation of which has been so wel The young people-of today, by action of the town, are given the of the advantages which in the past was 8o eagerly sought at great sacrifice in many Work comes quick enough after the high school, but the qualificatfon for better work and a better future lies in the pursuance of | such n course, It not only means a betterment for the individual, but for lald cases, the community and an endowment ‘ which will never come amiss, The op- | portunity comes but once in a lifetime. } BROTHERLY INTEREST. | Not all of the young men who go to | college are rich men’s sons, but they | secure the start there which places them on the road to success, when suc- cess is measure by wealth. This does not result to each and every one, but the college men are found to hold the best positions in the country and nat- urally wealth is accumulated. How true this is can be noticed from the gifts which are continually being mada to the universities and colleges throughout The alumni and friends of every big institution of repr amounts of he country. ent vast arning wealth, 1t was only this month that the class of 1902 at Harvard, only ten | years out of the university, made a class gift of $200,000, while for the - the sum total was $1,365,000. Yale received & large amount in gifts dur- ing the year, while the gift to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology of $2,600,000 was the leader. These gifts are ail for most com- mendable work and this is particularly true of those made to Brown, where the announcement of the raising of the | $1,000,000 endowment fund has just been made. Wesleyan college is mak- ing & hard fight for that same goal with promise of reaching it within the month, Nothing is more praiseworthy than such work for educational pur- poses and gratifying is the generous response which the appeals make. Those who have benefited are thus manifesting their interest in main- taining the good work and helping others through the fruits of their good fortune. DEVELOPING PERIOD AT YALE. The defeat of Yale on the Thames this year was expected. Had the.re- sult been otherwise there would have been great surprise. Harvard had the experienced crew and stroke, but it must be conceded that Yale put up a #00d race. It marked the first year of a new stroke at Yale, the develop- ment of which under Bob Cook has great promise. There 18 no reason why Yale cannot regain its former enviable supremacy and a full year under the veteran trainer should make it possi- ble to determine next June whather the modified Bnglish stroke s ths one to_do the trick.

If not needed for soiled clothes, it will do for clean towels. Spots of ink can be easily removed it one goes about it immediately, be- fore it dries. It can be washed out then, but if the spot happens to be on the carpet, al different treatment must be tried. If sait is put on thickly over, the ink will absorb it. As the color shows through put on fresh salt until the spot entirely disappears. TO CLEAN LEATHER. The handbag or satchel of undressed kid, when soiled by usage, need not be turned over to the professional cleaner. The secret of restoration is a piece of sandpaper rubbed over the surface. A very fine grade of sandpaper is re- quired. When this is used with care the effect is masgical and no injury to the material accrues. Many kinds of leathers without polished surfaces—for example, suede, undressed and ooze calfskin—can be cleaned thus. A CLEVER IDEA, Flowers always look artistic arranged in a basket. One housewife conceived the idea of weaving a rattan basket closely about a glass fish globe. The result is a beautiful bagket, glass lined, the shape of a rose bowl, that has a summery look on dining table or in living room. HEALTH AND BEAUTY. To prevent infection in a cut perox- ide should be applied at once. Bqually good is pure alcohol. For a burn there is nothing better than carron oil, which is nothing more than equal parts of linseed oil and lime water. A bad cold can often be broken if a teaspoonful of powdered ginger in a cup of hot milk is taken at the first symptom. Borax and ammonia are effective and harmless when used to soften hard water, though rain water is always best for the toilet. To whiten fingernails and improve the hands, cut a fresh lemon in two and rub in well at night. Wash off in warm water the next morning. This same treatment is excellent for stains on the hands. Some girls who Iike to have a faint perfume clinging about the hair put an oblong of folded wadding, with powdered orris root scattered batween in a lnen slip, This they lap on top of the ordinary pillow at night. For “nerve” pillows, fill with hops, drled catnip or mint leaves, clover tops, swoet grasses and scented follage gath- ered from herbs and shrubs, Have them well deled in the shade and all stems and sticks removed before using, In some cases very tender and easily chapped skin will yield to the treat- ment of glycerine applied immodiately after washing, when the skin fs motst.

It is a good thing for the country that the words of politicians are a great deal fiercer than their actions. By vetoing the bill which saved Gen- eral Wood, President Taft saved the chief of the army and a friend of bitterest enemy. The Roosevelt partisans in Norw who went on a drunk to dull tie poignancy of their disappointment will be able to vote in support of the tcn commandements.

TO CLEAN WHITE PAINT. The secret of cleaning white paint is to divide the work between two people, one of whom undertakes the washing of the wood and the other the polish- ing. Soapsuds and warm water, which are the best for enamel, should be ap- plied with a plece of flannel, while a clean duster and a piece of old linen are ready to dry and polish the wood immediately the fannel has done its work, BRIDESMAIDS, USHERS. The wedding procession is more bril- liant where there are a number of bridesmaids. They add, however, to| the expense of the occasion, since the bride is now expected to make them each a present. This is usually some- | thing to be worn at the wedding—a| pair of hatpins, a fan, or some smail article of jewelry. The bride invites them also to a luncheon, dinner, or festivity of some sort not long before the day of the ceremony. The gifts ' intended for them may be set at each plate, like favors, in small packages neatly tide| up with white ribbon. Sometimes the bridegroom and ush- ers are aiso asked to the dinner. This seems to us a much better plan than the_giving of a bachelor dinner. The best man is usually the groom's brother or most intimate friend. The ! ushers are chosen from the circle of | his near relatives and closest friends, with the addition of one or more of the bride's brothers or other relatives. In the same way, a sister of the groom is_included among the brides- maids. They provide their own cos- tumes, but the bride decides what| these shall be. She should be careful | a avoid choosing gowns and hats more expensive than her young friends can afford. If there is a maid of hon- or, she wears a costume differing somewhat from those of the brides- maids. She is always either the s ter or the most intimate friend of the bride. Often, however, there is no maid of honor, the first bridesmald acting as the bride's special attendant. How{ many ushers there shail be will depend on the gize of the wedding. Six are usually sufficlent. It balances the bridal cortege well and also gives the bridesmaids a pleasanter time If there is one usher to correspond to each of the latter, WORK TABLES. Study to get your work tables and sinks just the right height. They will, of course, differ according to the height of the worker. Too high a table causes a constant strain upon the arms and shoulders. Too low a one causes stooping and a tired back. Being a medium tall person, my favorite table is 321-2 inches high. On this I can roll out pastry and do sim- ilar work without stooping, and in con- sequence get much less tired than when my work Is lower down. About an inch lower is my favorite height for an ironing board. A low stove is wearying if it must be used much every day. And a wash- ing can be done much easier if a high- er bench than common is used for the rubbing tub. The easiest way to discover the ex- act height best suited to yourselt is to place blocks of wood on your ordinary table to support a board until you have found which is less fatiguing. Any woman who neglects to rectify this matter is extremely foolish if she values her own health, for many a woman is nervous and unhappy after 2 day in her kitchen without knowing the cause. And_the causes are, too frequently, the table, froning stand an dcook stove of her daily tasks. NEEDLEWORK NOTES.
