Two of the three old soldier menibers of the board of managers of the State Sol-! diers' home at Dodge City, and the Mother Bickerdyke home at Ellsworth, at $900 each per year, are dispensed with and their places on the board of managers taken by two members of the state board of control, which has charge of the state's charItable institutions. This is a change bitterly resented by many of the old soldiers of the state on the ground that it places the two state homes for old soldiers on the same basig as the charitablo institutions. Mrs. Frences VanWagoner died at her home in Effingham at 11 o'clock on Tuesday morning, at the age of 78 years. She had been confined to the house for years with rheumatism, but the immediate cause of her death was fatty degeneration of the heart, following an attack of erysipelas two weeks ago, which left her in a weakened condition from which she could not rally.

VanWagoner was one cf the early settlers of Kansas, having come from New York In 1871. She was bern in Floyd, Oneida, county, in 1834, and spent some of her best years in that Eastern home. On coming to Kansas she made her home on a farm west of Effingham, where she resided until five years ago, when she decided to make her home in Effingham. She was a faithful member of the Presbyterien church, and was noted for her sweet sympathetic nature and beautiful disposition. Funeral services were held at the Presbyterian church in Effingham this afternoon st 8 o'clock.
Topeka has the commission form of government, and. four candidates for mayor. It Is said an Atchison county farmer got his start by paying each of his sons twenty-five cents for not eating supper, and then stealing the money from their clothes. It is understood that the Atchison Hospital association will borrow a set of hospital plans from the Atchison, Topeka Santa Fe, and beat all architect out of a job. Fred Brashay left this morning for St.
Joe, where he will spend a couple of days in the Sommer-Richardson wholesale house to get familiar with his new work as traveling salesman. 0. M. Babcock was asked this afternoon how his wife was feeling. He replied, "She is feeling fine, but she ought to, she was operated on on Friday and had trained nurse number 13." County clerks will receive no fees registering consignees of liquor shipments, returned to the clerks by express and railroad companies.
County Clerk Voelker had visions of a windfall when he read the bill. The W. H. Cress family, which J. F.
Bloomer brought from Kentucky, has moved to Shannon, where Mr. Cress will work for Link Keithline. The W. F. Warner family, also from Kentucky, will locate in Osborne county.
G. W. Timby says Atchison can have the state poultry show next year if a building for that purpose can be secured. Usually about 3.000 birds are shown at a state show, and hundreds of people are attracted. If Atchison had a commercial club this would De one of the matters it could attend to.
There seems to be a dire conspiracy existing against this reporter. first man he met this morning made fun of his hat, the second invited him to a hair cut, the third asked him if he were growing beard, and the fourth instructed him to pull up his suspenders. Even in this free land there is no peace. M. A.
Quigley, who is out on the road with the regular Symns salesmen selling specialties, wrote Jim Walsh from to be sure and mail him a shamrock to Emporia. "I might get into a town where shamrocks do not grow and how could I prove my faithfulness without one on March 17, the Irish Natal Day," he wrote. Law, but this: is great weather for wheat! Commissioner James Glancy said to-day that wheat is farther advanced now than It was May 1 last year, and that it could not look better. By the way, what has become of those old Wheat Killers, Pete Jacobson and Joe Gibson? Since they sold their old wheat they are not talking so much. Archie Green, of the LockwoodHazel Printing is a coming young artist.
He has just finished a beautiful western painting in water colors. It Is on the order of the famous Frederick Remington's paintings, Mr. Green's design is an Indian on a mountaln overlooking the grand canyon. His talent is unusual considering that he has never had any training. Jokes built on an incident like the following are so old they are called chestnuts, but this conversation really took place lately in South Atchison.
"Are you going to have your chimneys rebuilt?" asked a woman of a little neighbor boy. "I dess they are dist nailin' on the mortgage," said the littie fellow peering over at two men on the roof of his home. "I heard papa tell mamma he was going to put one on." W. B. Harris, whose marriage to Miss Nana Millen, of Atchison, occurred last July, died this morning in the Santa Fe hospital in Topeka.
He was a machinist at the Santa Fe shops in Kansas City, and was injured there last week. He was at once taken to the hospital in Topeka, but his life could not be saved. Mrs. Harrig was employed at the Herman Kessier home as housekeeper before her marrlage. Clarence E.
Johnson, foreman under Contractor Betts, of the Y. M. C. A. building, arrived to-day.
He says he will start work as soon as the weather will permit; he is loading two cars with concrete mixer, derrick, elevator and other construction necessities. They are coming from Leavenworth, where they were used in rebuilding court house. The Atchison contract calls for the completion of the building by October 15. Farmers around Highbridge went to work yesterday grading for the Santa Fe to put in there. Fifteen farmers put their teams on the work and twenty more were to have worked to-day and completed the grading, but rain interfered.
In addition to doing the grading the farmers raised $650 in cash to secure the switch. That looks like the Santa Fe didn't tote just square with those farmers. The farmers want the switch so they can load stock and grain without hauling it so far. Miss Edna Munsell, who is visiting her parents, Mr. and Mrs.
E. W. Munsell, from Hutchinson, will be guest of honor this evening at a progressive dinner given by the Riley Streets Wits. The first course will be served at 8 o'clock at the home of the Misses Gracie, and will be followed by the second course served by Mrs. A.
P. Eymann and Mrs. George Bostwick at the home of Mrs. Bostwick; the third course at Mrs. Munsell's home, and the fourth and last course at the home of Mrs.
Ernest Poehler. It took two blacksmiths, ten holders of ropes and straps and forty onlookers to shoe a horse for Joe Alexander this morning. The horse stood to have shoes put on all but its left fore foot, and then It went up in the alr and other places. Finally it was taken down to soft ground near A. Roth's shop to a snubbin' post, hobbled and hog tied, and the last shoe was put on.
That horse has a lot of foolishness in its head about putting a shoe on one foot. The only thing to be said in defense of this horse, however, is. that It didn't make a fuss about having its kicking feet shod. DAY'S DOINGS. THURSDAY.

Trouble 2338 E. 79th Oleveland, Onto.had a very bad white scale on my forehead and scalp. I first noticed trouble with my face when it always got very red spotted whenever washed. My face burned and itched and I could hardly keep my hands off of it. It got red and inflamed in a small place and my eyes swelled shut for three days.
Then this trouble went in my hair. It came in a hard scale on the scalp and itched terribly and when I scratched the water came out of the scalp and made my hair all wet. Then the hair fell out in handfuls until I was very bald in spots. After a while my ears got a scale on them and they cracked open until the blood came out. "Then I got a sample of Outicura Soap and Ointment and purchased some more.
bad used the Outicura Soap for some time, but not the Cuticura Ointment. I had the trouble about ax weeks before I received the sample of Outicura Soap and Ointment, but the trouble was all gone in less than three weeks after. Now I am all right." (Signed) Mrs. Mary Crowell, Aug. 6, 1912.

We do not know that young girls care for advice, but if they do they may be helped somewhat by this little lecture from the Wichita Beacon: In the editor's mail recently was is the following letter from "Lucy:" "I am 18 years old.
It seems to me that I experlence more disappointments than any one. I make engagements only to have them broken by my parents, who claim they are not proper ones for me to make or keep. They say I need not expect to pass through life without having many disappointments. The question with me is how old will I have to be before I can do as I please and how far must I be obliged to obey my parents now?" Ah, Lucy, Lucy, with your fumbiing fingers you touch upon things that lead to SO much of the sorrow and tears of the world! Life is a hard road at best. There are stones in the way that cut one's feet and make them bleed.
There are thorns that scratch and tear. There are precipices over which one tumbles. Many a girl as high-hearted as you, as brave, as clean, has set out to tread it without guidance. To her innocence and inexperience it seemed such a plain easy road to travel. The prospect was very fair.
There were trees and running brooks by the way. There were singing birds. The air was filled with sunshine. And thenand then--too late then, Lucy, for tears! Tears do not mend 1 broken hearts and broken lives. Tears do not wash out the stains and the mudspots.
And that's why your parents watch over you and guard you and advise you and warn you. They have been bruised on life's path. They have traveled farther along its devious winding ways. With their experience they want to shield your inexperience. For, Lucy, they have toward you the highest and best feeling you will ever inspire in this world--the perfect unselfish love of mother and father who want to protect their fledgling.
Why is it, do you think, that all the religions preach the doctrine of a child's obedlence to its parents Do you think it is because religions want to help parents tyrannize over their offspring? Oh, no, Lucy! It is because religion preaches love, and the highest love is that love which watches over and guards and guides the tender, the weak and the innocent. Think! Throughout the world there is a falling stream of tears and many of these are due to the fact that the Lucys of this earth set out to find what is around the turn of the road and find black treachery, decelt and cruelty. St. Joe Gazette: Tom Davis, a farmer living about three miles south of DeKalb, In the Sugar creek neighborhood, was fined $25 and costs yesterday in Justice Nies' court on the charge of filling a ditch in a road in front of his place. The trouble dates back to December, 1911, when Davis filled the ditch at the side of the road so he could fix a driveway to his yard.
He was ordered to clean the obstruction a tion and is said to have promised to do 80. After failing to comply with the order the matter was taken up with him by Robert George, who is in the office of the highway engineer, Again an agreement WAS reached. Davis is said to have failed to keep this agreement and about three months ago was arrested. At that time an understanding was, reached between John Boyer, his attorney, and Assistant Presecuting Attorney McDaniel, by which Davis was construct a "box" for the water to run through, thug not obstructing the ditch. Having falled to do this he was again arrested and had a trial yesterday.
Trouble between Davis and the road overseer of the district. 1s alleged to have been In part responsible for the trouble. The case was appealed. Colored employees of the senate in Topeka presented our John R. Taylor, sergeant-at-arms, an Elk pin, set in diamonds yesterday afternoon.
Taylor not only has won fav- or among the members of the senate as sergeant-at-arms, but he has been a man popular with the employees. The following named colored memberg of Taylor's made the gift: W. A. Bettis, Wichita; Rev. C.

Herendon, Kansas City; P. C. Thomas, Topeka; Paul Jones, Topeka; P. M. Maxweil, Jetmore; Bessie Haynes, Topeka.
Saying you are as good as anybody is no evidence in that direction. Tom Hinton sounds a Clarion Note: "It's simply like this: I am not going to let undeserving parties rob the tax payers." Jim Orr's resolution of thanks from the legislature, done by hand in India jink, is on display in one of the windows of Linn's jewelry store. An Atchison man is consulting attorneys with a view of bringing a damage suit that will allege slander. He will also bring a civil action against the same party on an account. An Atchison man who recently returned from Oklahoma says many people owning rental nouses in Oklahoma City are renting them out for the insurance only.
Oklahoma City's boom is "busted." Howard Lockwood and Carl Dingess went to Lawrence to-day to be the guests of Ward Lockwood at the Phi Delta Theta fraternity house during the basket ball conference. Fred Pausch and Ortley Wherrett are also Ward's guests. In the following item did the Hiawatha World get lines mixed, or has Jim Challiss an out and out libel suit? Lawyer Jim Challiss, of Atchison, who likes an eminent man, and is one, operated in Hiawatha court of justice Wednesday. The sufferer is yet alive. Mr.

Several cabinet officers are expected to attend and it is given out that President Wilson will send a personal representative to the gathering who will deliver the executive's greetings to his head cabinet official.
There is an old saying that a person learns something every day of his life. A North Atchison young man learned this noon never to try to get off of a car when it is in motion. He tried to get off of the North Fifth street car and his overcoat caught on the back end of the car, dragging him half a block. Although he escaped serious injury, his clothes didn't. Three Democratic members of the legislature, Orr, of Atchison; Carroll, of Leavenworth, and Miller, of Ottawa county, openly opposed the Mahin prohibition bill in the house, and Carroll made a rampant anti-prohibition speech, but it was all to no purpose.
The house passed the bill by the overwhelming vote of 78 to 11. Since the parcels post business commenced the Atchison postoffice has begun to look like an express office in a holiday rush. After July 1, when packages may be sent C. 0. a room specially for parcels post work will be absolutely necessary in Atchison.
Then if the weight is Increased and the stamp charge decreased, as talked of, one extra room won't suffice. Dan Lynch left a basket of apples at The Globe office yesterday and his excuse was he did not think John Eiche recently showed Due Respect for a Prominent Publication when he left THREE baskets of Ben Davis apples here. In defense of John Eiche it need only be said that Globe employes are like a good many prohibitionists who take their nip. They abuse the Ben Davis apple but eat it just the same. Governor Hodges vetoed yesterday a bill, which had it been signed, would have cut a big hole in the state treasury during the next two years and would have subjected the administrato the embarrassment of stamping warrants "not paid for want of funds" in short order.
The bill vetoed is that measure relleving counties from liability to the state for the unrealized portion of taxes resulting from compromised tax sales. A big poultry raising enterprise is to be launched near Atchison by S. J. Smith, who has purchased the Thom. Newman 45 acres six miles northwest of town, from H.
B. Lewis, of Troy. Mr. Smith, who has been traveling for the Swift Packing company, has been living near St. Joe.
He has ten incubators and wiil add to the number ag the development of his poultry business warrants. There is some talk that Swift Co. will be interested in his enterprise, but this is hardly probable. What is known as the Bowman bill, which became a law, and which mitg counties to hire convicts from the penitentiary at $1 a day per con- vict, to work on roads, is really an Atchison bill. It was suggested to Wil- 11am P.
Waggener, who drew the bill, by Miss N. S. Donald. B. P.
Waggener was to have introduced it, but ta the legislature was killing so many of his hills he had it presented another member, and it' therefore bears the name of Bowmna. It is feared that the $1 a day is more than any county will care to pay. The earnings are to go to the familles of the convicts.

It exists right here In Atchison and advertises in that most fashionable of all fashion magazines, "Vogue." A formerly of Atchison woman was attracted by advertisement in Vogue, which said "send ten cents to the Blue Moon Letter Atchison, Kansas, and learn particulars in regard to receiving a series of letters for the entertainment of those invalids, travelers, children, or grownups possessing an adventurous spirit." The formerly of Atchison woman sent the ten cents, and recelved a brown scroll, which was artistic, and was sealed with gold seals.
She unwound the scroll slowly, according to directions and the plans of the Blue Moon Letter Atchison, Kansas, were revealed to her. The scroll was illustrated with a water color sketch of a blue landscape flooded with the blue light of a blue moon. Another illustration was a little red man, which to fanciful people symbolizes "getting your wish." At the bottom of the scroll is a blue crescent moon attached to which is a small blue bead. The scroll is clever. It offers real letters from imaginary persona, saying the letters will be "very real, very personal, very vibrant.
Reliable as your daily paper, fanciful as your favorite story magazine, personal as a mes-174 sage from your best friend."

What do you know about all that mysterious romance right here in Atchison? Topeka Capital: There is practically no doubt about Senator Balle Waggener being a candidate for the United States senate two years hence, to succeed Senator Joseph Bristow, but the veteran member from county won't admit it. He was asked about his candidacy yesterday, but sidestepped.
"I won't be a candidate for the state senate again aS long as I live," he said, when asked about running for the United States senate. Incidentally, Senator Waggener several times wondered why he came back to the legislature, especially so soon after the surgeons finished an extensive system of remodeling his person. The senator from Atchison 1s a glutton for work and no member of the senate worked harder than he, but at times the pace told on him. But he was in his seat every day, and probably came nearer to answering to the roll call on every bill than any other senator. Between a heavy load of committee work and a leading part in the roceedings on the floor he led a life that would have prostrated many younger and more vigorous men.
And, during the latter part of the session, when many of the senators were talking of adjourning for the night, Senator Waggener would poke fun at his younger colleagues for tiring so easily and urge them to stay on the job until 11 o'clock, or midnight and even later. Charles Jones, father of Mrs. G. E. Newcomb, died at 7 o'clock this morning, aged 81 years.

As stated this, in The Globe last evening, Mrs. Newcomb left for Waupun Tuesday evening. She reached her father's bedsile two hours before he died, and he was conscious until the last. Mr.
Jones was a leading dry goods merchant in Waupun for many years, retiring several years ago to take life easy. He has frequently visited at the Newcomb home in Atchison, and 19 remembered here as a remarkably fine gentleman. He is survived by his wife and one daughter. Mrs. G.
E. Newcomb, and three grandchildren, Clara, Charles Newcomb. The funeral will occur Saturday In Waupun, Francis N. Whiteker, whose death in Topeka was announced in last evening's paper, was a son of J. W.
Whiteker, who moved from Atchison to Valley Falls 37 years ago, and later from Valley Falls to Topeka. Upon his death the elder Whiteker's body was brought to Atchison for burial; the family lot In Mount Vernon cemetery has a number of graves. When J. W. Whiteker lived here he was In the grocery business on Fifth street, and lived about where the home of Governor and Mrs.
Bailey now stands. He came from Kentucky, bringing a lot of fine stock with him which was sold to G. W. Glick for the famous Glick stock farm. Mrs.
Nettle Siegfried, wife of H. N. Siegfried, formerly superintendent of the Atchison street railway, died February 25 in Log Angeles. News of her death reached Atchison to-day In a private letter to an Atchison friend from Antoinette, Mr. and Mrs.
Siegfried's eldect daughter. Since leaving I Atchison for Colorado several years ago, Mrs. Siegfried's health failed. She underwent five operations in a hospital in Denver. The letter did not state the cause of Mrs.
Siegfried's death. Besides her husband daughter, Antoinette, Mrs. Siegfried is survived by three other daughtera, Mary Elizabeth, Jane and Caroline. A telegraph official, who was strong on red tape, telegraphed the manager of a desert office forty miles from any other office: "September a year ago your receipts were $4.95, last September only 25 cents; how do you account for losing 90 per cent of the business?" and received full information in the following reply: "The $4.95 business last year was received from our section foreman, who sent telegrams to everybody he knew announcing the arrival of a baby at his house.

Topeka State Journal: As for Orr of Atchison, he has carried the task administration floor leader. Some of the grist that has gone to the legislative mill hasn't been just to Orr's liking and he has quietly admitted as much. But he has taken the floor and fought for the things that the Democratio party in Kansas promised the people in 1912. When real trouble was on hand, Orr never dodged nor ran.

Some light my be thrown on the problem of school spelling by the researches conducted by the educational division of the Russell Sage foundation, which publishes the results in a pamphlet entitled "The Spelling Vocabularies of Personal and Business Letters," by Dr. Leonard P. Ayres. To determine the words most commonly used, 2,000 letters of 12 different kinds were analyzed.
To shorten labor the first word in each line was taken as a sample, or 23,269 out of the 110,160 words in the letters. The results are str'king. The total vocabulary brought to light came to but 2,001 words, and it is not likely that the total would be materially increased if the other four of the words had been tabulated. Of these 2,001 words 751 appeared once only; at the other extreme one word, was repeated 1,080 times, and 43 words make up half of the total of nearly 24,000. This 43 make a smooth curve of frequency, but they may be roughly divided into two groups.
Words occurring more than 300 times are: "the," "and," "to," "your," "of," "for," "in," "dear," in descending order. Below the 300 line are: "WIll," "my," "with," "we," "as," "very," "have," "that," "me," "it," "please," "eend," "truly," "which," "sincerely," "at," "gir," "would," "thank," "from," "but," "once," "are," "by," "one," "enclose." It will be seen that nearly all of these are Anglo-Saxon, and that nearly all are easy to spell, though "dear," "please," "truly," and "sincerely" make trouble for some bad spellers. But there should be no difficulty, it might be supposed in teaching everyone to speil these 43 words, which constitute half of everyday correspondence. The author raises, without undertaking to answer, the question whether the speiling lists used in the schools are not too comI prehensive. Many of them take in 10,000 words or more, while the vocabularly of correspondence has but 2,000.
