More and more is the fact being realized that the efforts in benalf of the third-termer mean a wasted en- deavor, and, yet, in that effort, it is the democratic party which will be the real gainer. In Wilmington, Col. J. G.

A good idea of what may be ex- pected in the way of increased busi- ness through the Panama canal can be gained from ' the rapid growth which commerce between the eastern and western coasts of the United Btates has shown in recent years, Prior to 1907, the Panama rallway , 414 all the business across the isthmus, ‘but since that time, and the comple- ton of rallroad across the isthmus of Tehuantepee, the business by those roads has trebled, amounting in the fiscal year of 1912 to 125 million, Praetically all of the sugar sent from Hawail to the eastern coast of the United States comes by the Tehuante-~ peo rallroad, and forms eonsiderably more than haif of the eastward move- ment of demestic merchandise, Figures prepared show that of the twelve and & quarter miflion dollars’ worth of merchandise passing from the Atlantie eoast te the Paeific ports of the United States during July and August just past, iron and steel man- ufaetures ameunted to ever three mil- lion, cotten mamufactures te nearly iwo million, These figures, which in- clude only demestic merchandise pass- ing by way of the isthmus between United @Btates ports, suggest that a otill greater growth in this trafic be- tween the eastera and westera coasts can be expected with the oppertunity for vessel shipments withoul chang- HE ing at the isthmus, wirich will come with the opening of the Panama ca- nai, Werelgn trade wili show a like congressman - from that state. It is on these very lines that John ‘Wanamaker makes his plea to busi- ness men and wage earners allke. He speaks volumes of real progressivism when he says: The situation narrows down to this: 1. Taft, and the top wave of pros- perity. 2. Destruction to industries. , 3. The whirligig administration of an unbalanced president in a “star- spangled robe with archangelic wings.” Why exchange, humanly speaking, present prosperity, politically assured, for a riddled, shot-through tariff and the fantastic, un-American projects of the launchers of a new party? Let us rouse ourselves to keep our republican friends together and by de- termined effort scatter our enemies to the four winds. . No new government ought to be per- mitted to check existing prosperity or to begin mew policles that jeopardize the nation’s future. Larger, far larger than either of the ‘men before the country for the presi- dency is the one condition on which thggwdflmotmnmluurym must rest. It we are ready to sacrifice the next four years of prosperity we can shut our eyes and jump in any direction we choose; but, In my opinion, were . | the phenomenal crops twice as large, it would make no differenice between this particular year when the crops have partially failed on the other side of the sea. With a new tariff such as proposed to cure part of the trouble of high prices, the railroad companies will not want more rolling stock to haul the grain and corn, for the com- mon or plain people will be out of ‘work and have 10 money to buy with. PROTECTING THE BIRDS. Naturalists, sportsmen and friends of the dirds in general are naturally much interested in the purchase of Marsh island in the Gulf of Mexico, as a winter resort for the birds. This fact has not been communicated to the benefactors in the bird language, ‘but the little tell-tale bird will noise it about as soon as it is found to be in operation. Migratory birds and wa- terfow! will find it out and it will soon be the merry birdland that is pro- posed. It is a new philanthropy which Mrs. Russell Sage has entered upon instead of pouring out foundations for educational and human welfare work. It is a timely effort for the protection and increase of the birds, among which there has béen such an enormons waste through hunters that many species are threatened with ex- tinetion. Not sentinment alone, but an im- portant economic question is involved in this foundation in behalf of the birds of North America. With the decrease in the number of song hirds there Is a corresponding increase in the insect pests which do untold harm to crops and trees. It {s upon such in- sects that the birds thtive and upon their presence depends to a large ex- tent the value of the product of many farmers' harvest. This protection of bird life will also be an admirable be- ginning in the cause for which sports- men’s organization have been at work for a long time.. Working in harmony with what states are doing in this direction is going to accomplish much for the protection of bird-life. — — EDITORIAL NOTES. - ‘The Red Sox are making the Giants look like ordinary ball players. Happy thought for today: No one dare claim an idle rumor is an idle thing. 3 The political tenderfoot has more sympathy ‘than sense and his conclus- lons are usually baseless. Board walks are provided at sea- shores for avoiding the sand, but low- er Franklin street hasn’t been equipped as yet. J. P. Morgan is quoted as having said: ‘I have never yet seen a polit- ical organization that declined to take my money.” 1 The Rosenthal murder case leaves no doubt New York has goats and scapegoats. Becker is in the last- named case. ‘The Trenton man who beat his wife to death with an autpharp evidently forgot that the popular instrument of trouble today is the lyre. Lieutenant Becker of the New York police 1s on trial for murder, but it is his wife’s picture which decorates the newspapers. Fame is a great thing. A bull moosette proposes that Octo- ber 28 be made a bull moose tag-day for ralsing a political fund. What other new sign of progress is in store for us? The investigation shows that in the primary campaign for the presidency the Roosevelt supporters spent $325,000 to $149,000 for Taft, or nearly three to onme. Candidate Wilson says “the progres- sive platform is standpat republican ism at one end with soclalism at the other,” and declares “the best thing in it is soclalistic.” New Jersey is wrought up over a schoolboy, son of a Canadian, who re- fused to pledge alleglance to 014 Glory.

It.is often found a difficulty to cook rice so that every graln is dry and separate, The following method should be trled: Having washed a breakfast cup full of rice in several waters, throw it into a large saucepan full of cold water. Bring it gently to the boil, then cook it for a quarter of an hour, when it should be perfectly tender and each grain be distinct. Pour it into a large colander and let it drain in front of the fire. Should it not be quite dry, spread the rice on a dish and stand it in the oven, with the door open for a short time. RIBBONS. Never were ribbons so beautiful. That sounds trite enough, but it is true. They are simply marvelous. The picot edges are in varied effects, and in different shades combine beautifully. Molre ribbons are extremely fashion- able this season, and will be much used for trimming gowns. Some of them are bordered with velvet, and there are attractive moire ribbons bor- dered with a narrow cord of gold. Chiffon velvet ribbons are also in great demand for trimmings. They come in the most exquisite shades and are used with brocade, often to accentuate one of the colors in the design. All the red shades from vivid pink to the darkest wine color are used in the brocaded ribbons. Indian red, ox- blood red, the extraordinarily sta.rmnfi shade called “primrose,” the soft an becoming fuchsia, American beauty, coral and all the red shades. Amber ribbins, in line with the present craze for amber, are seen in great varlety uf design and many shades of the color, and all the shades of brown are more in evidence than they have been for several years. GREASE SPOTS. grease spots on the front of a cotton dress, sprinkle plenti- fully with finely prepared and cover it with brown paper.

Enlarged pores can be contracted by applications of alcohol. Tetter and ringworm are caused by imperfect digestion and should be cured by proper diet. Local applica- uotna of fodine will give temporary re- lief. An excellent tonic for the hair is made of one ounce of best castor or sweet pil, two ounces of bay rum and two of French brandy. Scent with rose geranium. People suffering from indigestion should eat a very light breakfast. A raw egg separated and beaten light with a little cream or milk added is often sufficlent and easily digested. The best kind of exercise is the kind that makes you forget that you are ex- ercising—in_other words, play, says a physician. It's a good scheme to have some more or less strenuous game for a hobby—golf or bowling or tennis or archery—anything that appeals to you and affords exercise with interest. But us it is hot air. Doesn’t this prove New Jersey is old-fashiomed? ¢ The manufacturers abroad hope can- didate Wilson will be elected because that means an open door to American markets. If American workmen vote to open that door they will go hungry before 1916. A bull moose paper says President Taft is “a fat paunch wreathed in a vacuous smile of satiety,” and some republicans think the Taft papers are shamefully abusing the Colonel. Noth- ing like this in ’em! The progressives in Ohio can't say anything foo bad about the democratic secretary of state who rules they can- not go on the official ballot. They forget about California and what they did to the republicans. It's a bitter pill taking another’s medicine. The bull moose pre-convention cam- paign cost $618,166. Ohio, Pennsyl- vania and Massachusetts, where the primaries were held, recelved large slices of this amount, which leads to the belief that money is the require- ment that brings the popular choice. This is- what Candidate Wilson re- cently said to an assembly of voters: “If T were a cartoonist I would draw a picture of the biggest monopolies in the country, standing in line, and, in front of them, Theodore Roosevelt try- ing to lead them in a hallelujah cho- rus” Roosevelt told the zinc miners of Joplin, Mo., that the removal of the tariff from the metal would put the miners in competition with the peon i lebor of Mexico; and the progressives who are supporting Roosevelt joined the demoerats In congress and tried to compel a repeal of this very tariff.

Every mother who has little daugh- ters to amuse in ralny weather will often resort to paper dolls. Children always derive a great amount of pleasure dressing these, and many an otherwise tedious hour is spent in this manner. Beautiful dolls, from six to nine inches tall, ready to dress, may be purchased for from 5 to 10 cents.
