American People
Are Their Own
Government
Miry Roberts Rinehart, noted
writer, who has entered politics as
a candidate for'district delegate to
the republican national convention
from her home near Pittsburgh, was
asked recently to state her views as
a representative American woman
of the political situation. Summed
up, they are:
' "This is one of the most critical
periods in the, country's history. The
nation faces a vitally necessary in
dustrial and economic adjustment,
in which every man and woman
must aid. The basic economic fac
tor is the home and it rests with
the1 women to take the initiative in
measures affecting the home. Autoc
racy of mass is, as bad as autocracy
of class. The strongest emotion pre
vailing in the country today is fear
of radicalism.
"The people must shake off their
political lethargy and realize that
they are the government. The only
time the United States is a real de
mocracy is when it votes. Every
four years the country puts all its
eggs in one basket and must take
its chances until the next general
election. We have been more or less
fortunate in selecting our presidents
in the past, ,but we can't afford to
make a mistake at this critical period
of our national life.
."There must be no rubber stamp
rfelecates to the national conven
tion. They must reflect the wishes,
bf the people they represent. ,
A nation is really not an entity;
it is a vast collection of homes. And
all national" problems must be re
duced to the equation of the home."

My HEART and
My HUSBAND
By ADELE GARRISON
How the Release of Kenneth Stock
bridge Was Achieved and What
Happened Afterward.
We' must telephone Alice Hol
combe directly," 1 said enthusiastic
ally. But Lillian put up a protest
ing hand. "
"I don't want any inkling of this
to go out of here tonight," she said.
"I don't trust the telephone wires.
And tomorrow, Allen," she turned
to Mr. Drake, "you and Madge and
I will go over to the district attor-,
ney's office with this. I'll also have
Ja(kc Wilsey brought in he's under
surveillance, if anybody should hap
pen to ask you and when he's con
fronted with the whole thinp;, Ken
neth Stockbridge will lio doubt come
across with the truth he's been
Quixotically hiding so long."
"What's the reason Madge has to
be rriixed up in this mess?" Uicky
demanded truculently. "Isn't it bad
enouph for her to be uame'd in this
damnable scrawl?" he toqk up the
dead woman's letter and shook it
fiercely "without her trotting down
to -the jail?"
"Not to' the jail, Dicky,'" Lillian,
corrected. -
"I do not myself see the neces
sity," Allen Drake began, but Lil
lian cut him short while Dicky
glared at him. '
Madge's Suggestion.
"It's just because she is mention
ed in this that she-must go there,"
she said. "I'm goinsi to have Alice
Holcombe there also. We'll put all
the cards on the table, and I believe
we can keep the true inwardness, of
this thing out of the newspapers,
which is the one -thins trjc desired
now. You can bet MilTy - Stock
bridge's family,, 'who about run
things politically down here, will be
quick enough tor rune, to terms when
they see this. They'll b mighty
glad to have the indictment quash
ed and the whole thing hushed up as
quickly as "possible. Kenneth Stock
bridge will be a free man tomorrow
afternocm. you'll see. Rut. poor
chap, I don't know what Jie'll do
with his freedom. Half the,tovn is
related to his dead wife. anW they'sp
all against him, and, of course, he
ought not to go back to his liome."
Couldn t , we I faltered as 1
caught. Dicky's astonirhed eye, then
went on "more bravely. "For Alice's
cilra T iimtilrl lilr invito lim lieU
for a few' days until he get? himself
together., ,
"Suit yourself," Djcky replied in
differently, "only he 'and Drake will
have to share a room."
I (lushed at the covert insolence
of his tone. But Mr. Drake was
ready with a response, and either
did not notice or pretended ignor
ance of Dicky's tone. f
x'l shall have to return to town to
morrow evening at -the latest," he
said, "so that difficulty . will be
solved."
, ''But you must be sure to be here
for 'dinner tomorrow night," said
Lillian with the privilege she always
assumes in our home to our great
delight. "If Madge doesn't care I
should like to have Stockbridse and
that nluckv Miss Holcombe to
gether at a dinner table. They have
certainly Deen tnrougn enougn 10
appreciate a little decent treatment."
Dicky Protests.
"I should be delighted," I said
with truth. Then I turned to Mr.
Drake, all my hospitable soul out
raged by Dicky's oiirtncss:
"You simply must be a that din
ner tomorrow night," I said earnest
ly. "A feast in honor of Mr. Stock
bridge's release minus the man who
set him free would be a Hamlet-left-ont
sort of affair, don't you
think?"
He bowed laughingly, but with a
touch of the inipreseiveness that
always invests his manner.
"I don't need so flattering an ar
gument," he said in a low tone.
"Your mere wish is sufficient war
rant for my staying."
"For my part," interposed Dicky
sourly, "if you ask me. I think it's
rotten bad taste to have a dinner
celebrating that man's release from
prison. After all, that dead woman
was his wiferyoti knew."
"M ore's the pity,". Lillian said
grimly.. "And.yas it happens, we
didn't ask your advice Dicky-bird.
It isn't a formal dinner, little one,
just your family, Stockbridge and
Miss Holcombe, Allen and little me.
And don't you call a scheme of mine
rotten bad taste or I'll hold your
head under the pump. That poor
devil has suffered enough. Don't
you Kegn by holding his false im
prisonment against him."
"Who's holding anything against
anybody?" - Dicky demanded indig
nantly. "Good-night! Tm going to
my own room in my own, home and
read. OP all the crazy, footless
stujits! So long, you bunch of
filberts." - . ,
He swung out of the room as he
spoke, and the glimps- I caught of
his face showed me that it was

FEELING BLUE
ALL THE TIME
Before Taking Cardui, This
Georgia Lady Suffered Un
til She Would Have-to Sit
Down to Do Housework.
Was-Dizfy and Weak.
Dalton, Ga. Mrs. V. A. Burnett
of Route 6 says: "I got down with
my back and sides, not able to do
my work. I suffered a great deal.'
I had a depressed, blue feeling all
the time. '
."I couldn't rest at night. I was
j-.ervous. I would be dizzy and.Just
no account at all.
"I wpuld have to sit down while
trying to" do . the ( housework: It
seemed I couldn't get my breath. I
was afraid I would get past going
aUogether.
"I heard of Cardui afid began
using it. I could see after ja half
bottle it was helping me, so I Icept
if up . . . and soon I was like a new
person. '
"I Jcnew Cardui did the work, for
no other medicine I took ever help
ed me, as it did. I certainly can
reconfmend . . Cardui."
This well-known medicine, which
Mrs. Burnett says helped her, is a
mild, medical, purely vegetable
tonic, for .over 40 years used , by
thousands' of women, with similar
results to those' which this Georgia
lady obtained. , .
; Cardui should help you, "too. Try
dark ' with ' annoyance or some
stronger feeling. ,
But when the next night and the
dinner hour finally arrived after one
of the most exciting days I had ever
spent, Dicky was himself again, a
most royal host, as he always is at
his own dinner table, and to no one
did he show more impressive cour
tesy than to Allen Drake.
Kenneth Stockbridge, pallid'from
his long imprisonment, and with an
expression of unrealization on his
face, showed only by his eyes the
relief from" torture that the clearing
of his name had brought him. He
was silent throughout the- w.hole
meal, rousing himself only to an
swer such questions as were asked
him. y
Alice Holcombe from the other
side of the table watched him anx
iously. -She herself was radiant with
happiness at the release of the man
she loved, yet I saw that his de
meanor worried her. ' ,
We had been Ihrough. much to
gether that day, she and U. Lillian
and I had brought her the news
f '
early in the day and taken her with
us to the district attorney's office..
There Lillian's prediction had come
true, and the order for ' the release
of Mr. Stockbridge had been merely
a formality, and one that we were
able to execute within short'order.
And we had bundled him into the
cal when he was - finally set free,
and brought him directly to Mar
vin, stopping only x at his own old
home for some articles of clothing
he needed. 'v '
It had been a trying experience,
and I did not wonder at the silence
of either. But Mr. Drake compen
sated for them. He kept up a run
ning fire of brilliant comment upon
every topic 1 imaginable, showing
himself conversant with the work
and news of the world to a manked
degree. I don't know when I nave
.enjoyed listening more, although I
could not but observe the old ego
tistical manner which had sc) aiw
noyed me creeping through "his
speech. V- . .
I must correct that statement. I
enjoyed listening to Mr. Drake intil
I happened to catch Dick,'s eye in
a moment when he had forgotten to
mask his looks. And the glare he
east upon. me was enough to make
indigestible the most wonderful din
ner in the world. . ,
, (Continued Monday.)
If the purchaser of a new pair of
silk hose would soak them in warm
water before putting them on the
first time, then vflng them ou(,yery
gently and dry them, the wearing
qualities would be greatly enhanced.
The reason is that the soaking and
drying causes the little projecting
fibers to lie down smooth and they
do not catch' qn extraneous -objects
and cause, runs. Everyone knows
that tiothhYg detracts more from the
appearance of silk hose or the at
tractiveness of their contents than
runs. , .

off. The velvet or velour will be
