BY OLIVER P. NEWMAN (Author of “The Fortunes of the Sun,” a series of articles in the Saturday Evening Post, which created nation-wide comment.) CHICAGO, IIi., June 12,—It is time to get down to brass tacks on this republican national convention. Discounting the claims of thé Taft and Roosevelt managers, we find Roosevelt pre-convention hopes have been soaked. The so-called progressive politicians who grabbed the Roosevelt boom in the hope of saving their state and local organizae tions from going to smash in a normally democratic year are pale.

THREE COURSES FOR ROOSEVELT The facts today, say unprejudiced politicians, point to the nominae tion of Taft.

' It was an advertiser in The Star who showed these same women readers how to serve a delicious breakfast food in two minutes instead of cooking old fashioned oat meal four hours, An insurance agent invented a fountain pen because he needed it in his business—then he advertised it. The vacuum cleaner was first made to save one woman work, advertising it has saved thousands of women millions of hours of sweeping.
