Rumored That 8ec:?tary Taft and Secretary Root Both Urged Thut Meseage be 8oftened?Motives for th* Message Coming to Light. ?WASHINGTON, D. C, Feb. 3.?The political effect that President Rooso yelt'a mossngo. having for Its text the "re-enactment of Uio Employers' Lia? bility law, will linvo Is the subject of sravo discussion In Washington. Re jmlblcnn senators* who ate most fa? miliar with polities seem to be jtfrssiiie; wnkerul nlghta. It was ap parent today that "nleeplng" oji the message had not. cooled the wrath of Oioso who denounced It In private yesterday, and some went so far to say that It was a situation in which party must be put nHldo for country. At tho -Willto House there was a .?hower of congratulatory telegrnma ahd messaged fmm. widely scattered points, indicating that statesmen were perhaps taking the document morel eoylously tlmn it was received In some] other quarters. Considerable political Interest at taetwH to tho fact; that tho messages In Bald-, to have beon submitted to Scevotitry- Taft and Secretary Root, both of whom urged that It bo soft? ened in, tone. A question suggested by tbla fact Is whether Secretary Taft is willing to Indorse tho principles s<>t forth In the document, and If he does thin what effoet it will havo upon his political chances. There are som0| who b^lieye that the massage la prov? ing; rather a bitter pill for the admin-I . lstrat ion candidate, who I? supposed | to stand for tho continuance of the ll6osovolt policies if elected. Other?| argue Uiat the message will bo ac? cepted as the utterance of a man con? vinced that lie Is right and willing to Stand in defence of his honest con? victions. It must 1>? admitted, how? ever, that liu Washington the message I went vary wide of (striking a popular| note.

Members of Congrej* have too often mot ?with this situation not to take" It into consideration at this timo, although It Is assorted that this! support ol tho President's policies hasj In a nu-aauro boon alienated.

Rydor, Wwt Brecrster, Mass., April 20, 1907. i?KfcDfet* Kiu-rOAt ?od Inttm? Tmtmeat President Roosevelt rotaJne<i a won? derful hold tipon the American peoplo to fall to tako tals olomont Into con? sideration. Tho political effect of tho document will bo watched with solici? tude. It would require but slight un ?urance that the personal popularity of tho President, which haw rarely failed him, was waning as a result of his advanced ideas to precipitate a direct attack upoa them In tho Senate. It In said today that Secretary Taft will be called upon l.y bis political opponents la the Republican party to nay whether or not he approves the message. Ills acceptance of tho reit? eration of tho flooseveltlan principles therein contained will not bo ouftl clent for IiIb opponents, but ho will l?e asked to go further nnd accept or repudiate tho language of tho moa snge. This was a sentlmn^t variously expressed by many of the Republi? can leaders, who declared that the party and tho country ought to know where Secretary Tuft now stands In view of the advanced position as? sumed by the President It is declared by some that the PreamV-nt. has unwittingly nmde the nomination of Secretary Taft Improb? able. Unless Secretary Taft accepts* the message In its ontlrety, hin op? ponents say. ho will be shown to have been swept off his feet by bin chief supporter. Roosevelt and Hughes were named by all the-po men as the probable contenders for tho Republi? can nomtnntion for President at Chi? cago. Mn?nwhllo the mast of Congress is sticking to Its llr.sl estimate of the message, which is that it wan unne? cessary. Much gossip as to how tho document originated was current to? day, It Is said that the mes? sage wuk an oxperpt from Ute annual mcswgo which wan cut out ui>on the urgent advice of counsellors. The President, It Ir said, was Influ? enced I'y tho pictures drawn to the 'effect which bis utterance would havo upon buslnoiMi conditions. The mes? sage was promptly brought out for present use when the panic, was over and it was thought to be tiely. An? other explanation of It Ik that Pres? blent Roosovell had written It fol? lowing the clwrge made by Justice Prower, of the United States Supremo Conrt4 In New York city, to the ef? fect that he wos "playing bide and seek" with the peoplo on tho third term lsaue. \ Tlila message Is reported to have been shown to several members of the cabinet. Including Secretary Taft. It Is also said that Secretary Taft opposed the Bending of the message to Congress from first to hint and, despairing In his attempt, confined his efforta to toning down certain portions I of It which to hlni seemed top strong. YEAR'S WORK IN A NIGHT. Onb College Man Who Proved tho 'Worthlessness of Examinations. Somo college professors Insist that tbo examination system Is a failure and they can cite instances which they iH-llevo bear out their s!de> of tho case.' One of these faculty mon.i a recent graduate from a largo uni? versity. mM: "Wlu-a I wan In college there was a man of groat capacity who had nogleOtud one course from, his fresh? man year when ho got a condition When It came down to bio senior year he laid to make It up, but he lot It go to tiht? very last set of examina? tions.

Special Ordnance Board Experiment? ing to Gel Bettor Alloy. WASHINGTON. T>. C, Feb. 4.?Un? der the supervision of tho bureau of ordnance, naVy department, a special ordnance board la making Investiga? tions and experiments relative to the steel used In guns. A special allot? ment from Congreta is- to aid tho board in its Investigations. Within, the last year much progress ban been made In connection with tho alloys of certain substances with steel, tnd there is reason to l>e1levo that among these alloys there can be found a metal for use In the bore of the gun which will resist erosion to a far creator extent than does tbo steel which Is now toeing used. One of 'ho princlpil objections to tho heavy *nns which Are at great velocity ia ?ho fact that tho erosion Is so great that It reduces the life of tho gun to a comparatively short time. With a metal of great rosismnco for tho t-ube of a gun it may bo possible to use larger charges of powder and carry tho pressure far above the 50, 000 foot tons for the 12-Inch gun. to which they, are now limited. A Chicago trolley car couductor routed three highwaymen who tried to hold him up. Doesn't it give you tho shtvern to think of giving that man an old transfer ticket? ? Well Known Political Writer Says Forakar Is Beaten Out of Sight. _ i WILL HAVE SOLID DELEGIM Walter Wellman Who i0 Making a Tour of tho Stato Sees No Hope Whatever for tho Forker-DIck Com? bination. I CHICAGO, Feb. 3.?Writing to the Record -Horald from Columbus on the ]>olitlcal situation in Ohio, Waller Wellmem says: "Complete Is tho political revolution In Ulfs stato olTocted by tho elimina? tion of Forakor and the rlno of Taft. Of the 88 counties In. Ohio all but two or throe?and these small?will Bend T?lt delegates to the state con? vention. The Forakor forces have mado no contest for control of the state convention, und If they had done so the result would not have been changed, so overwhelming is the Taft sentiment among the people. "Of the 18 delegate! to the national convention at Chicago, all will 1a> for Taft. The most of tlio Foraker-Dlek I people can now hope for Is contesting delegations from two or throo dis? tricts, and it is doubtful if there will bo any contests. Mr. Forakor is be? lieved to be too big; u man to go to Chicago na a formal candidate for tho presidency with no other following from his own state than a handful of rump convention contestants "Now that tlvei revolution has Ixrni oHectcd and the .political leadership has fallen Into new hands, men ure looking- forward to see who an? llkoly to Im the chief actors on tho stage of tho w>ar future. Although no liard and fast slate has been arranged, It Is probable the delegates at large from Ohio to Chicago, tho 'big four,' will be Governor Harris, Arthur I. Vorys, Tuft's manager; Myron T. Her rlck and Chinrios P. Taft, brother of tho Secretary, with Mr. Vorys as chairman of th? delegation. "The leglBlnturo to bo chosen this year will elect a successor to Mr. Forakor in the Senate, and tho talk Is that Governor Harris mny bo given tho honor and that after blm Charles P. Taft, of Cincinnati, will stand a good chance. It in conceded that Se? itor Dick must fall by, the wayside for his mistake in standing with For? akor, and when tho time comes to chooso his successor from the North em i>art of tho stato it ts beJlev?d Myron T. Ilorrlck is lu excellent po? sition to carry off tho prize. "Much has boon written and sa'd In the East as to Mr. Taft's Ineffi? cient and blundering managers hero In Ohio. It la commonly believed that Mr. Vorys Is what a Now York paper enlls him, n "goober politician.' Even President Roosevelt was nt one time convinced Utat Mr. Vorys was not quite up to the mark. But when one comes to inquire carefully- Into Ute history of the Ohio campaign, now' virtually closed with a complete Taf triumph, no evidence{is found upon which to base stich conclusion." TWO POLITICAL STUMP SPEECHES IN THE HOUSl Representative Townsend Praises Re? publican Party and Is Answered by Congressman Cockrane. (By Associated rressj WASHINGTON. IX C. Feb. 3 ? Three of the giants of tho House ot Representatives hod their Innings to? day. Technically the Indian appro? priation bill was under discussion, but legislation was relegated to tho back? ground while national politics occu? pied the stage. Before tho political quostlon crop? ped out, the House, with next to tiho largest attendance of the session present, with but ono dissenting voice passed a general wklowa' pension bill granting a fiat pension of $12 a month to the widows of nil honorably dis? charged soldiers of the United States who have not heretofore received the benefits of the pension law. and an Increase of $4 n month for those who have under tho act of June 27. 1890. The law expressly wolves tho lim? itation of property hoMIng*. Tho hlH involves tho expenditure, of more than $12 .000,000 an mini lv. Tho political debate was opened by Mr. Townsend of Michigan, who in a prepared speech claimed for the Republican party credit for all nn ftonal legislation in the last 60 yeans of vltAl interest to the public. In this he was vigorously disputed by Mr. Cockrane of New York, who after? wards launched Into a discussion of the President's nVessag? of a few days ago, his remarks frequently evoking applause on both Bides ot tho chamber. ?Jt-n-uegi.,i_J"^,_jsuu3acg?

WOMEN'S NOS It In -almost Inevitable* that tba nose Should be red at timcii In cold weather, but lt? uedness may be mit? igated by core. Thus red la tho dress should bo avoided and one should study hygiene . to the extent of not lacing too tightly. bun norvousncai can muko tlie nose red' as wit ill a? odd. Women who ory much usually havo chronic red noses. To bleach n n-??e in dif? ficult, but It can be done. The best of bleach is the uppin tea of Southern memory.

A tight collar .will make tl?o, nose pur? ple and will glvo a headache at the same time. The collar must be easy and tho mind must bo calm. Mental calm Is of the upmost importance whore a red nose is concerned. The noso whould bva matwaged ev? ery day, bis'j the massage should be from both sides to the tip. The woman who maasagett her nose from side to side or from the tip to the ba?o will d-Btroy Mho contour of hor face. When rnnssaglng tho noso press it upward at each side. Give the tip a ItUe pinch and then press It upwont again. Common sense should go with 'the masisagu. ' The woman Whode nose points straight, upward and outward should prees downwnjrtd very slights upon the tip, She should bend It as though she were "frying to mould s Hornau nose. It la quite iCoay bo mould a nose for It Is soft and easily managed. Hut the trouble in then fcfw peoplo have tho judgment to mould It in Ute way It should go. One goa^Tol rule will not do for nil noses. The womio with a long, thin nose very p;d ou tho tip should rub it dally with a rough towel or with o bit of rubber sponge. This Is to re? el ore Uie circulation. Then she should mat; sago the nose, pressing upward;' and she should taloa her finger tips and mamsage upward all along tho bridge of tho noj^a A good skin food will take away tho rod tone produced by the massngw All pastry Is bad for (the complex 'on uriiesa it happens to digest well.

Thin with a little brush, which la really a very stiff toothbrush, she goes over the nose carefully until she has scraped JE to tho very tip. She la now-muly to spray It. Spraying the face with hot water Is absolutely necessary tor the wo? man who does not want h*rr nose to be too red. The- hot water acts very pleasantly upon the noso and the cheeks, making them wen and pure In none. When tjho face has been 6pmyed It la creamed with a good skin food, which is allpwed to sink in. After awhllo the extra cream is taken off with a rag and tho taoo ia let cool down. The beat rag is* a piece of old silk shirting, which can be kept for the purpose.- There are women who kcop all their old <~-etlK shirts s?mply to use as complexion rags. The nwtor of putting powder nr. the nose Is important.. It Is the l?*t step In the makeup and it must be putt on generously but wisely. The powder must be perfume 1 to bo agreeable, nnd It must be the color of the skin. A brunette pow? der Is becoming to most face? and It Is put on the face in a cloud whkh Is wafted all over the com? plexion. Then a little of it Is rubbed Into the skin of th? nose. iAter, Just be? fore one goes out, the nose is pow? dered again. Great care must be ttokeu to rub off the superfluous white dust. It takes nearly an hour for powder to become part of .the skin, and the woman who Is going out shoull make ?up at Just an hour before. If she is going ifto redden her cheeksnu hour before Is none too lor.ga time to pre? pare her face. Womon . who t-odden 1 the face can do to by the natural method, and the woman who?<o noso 1st too highly colored should by all means tint, her cheeks. 9lu? need not. use rouge, but she can redden tbom In other ways. ES IN WINTER She can take a wet towel and light? ly daub her cheeks. Then with a rag sho Koos over her cheeks briskly (to bring the blood' to the surface. This. It very good for any woman's skin, and the c-reful woman will see to It that biCT cheeks are briskly rubbed twice dally. It clears the pores, takes off the worn out skin and makes the com? plexion fresh. Moreover. It mak'vt [the noso look prettier. A little rouge I can bo added If neceesury, and It looks \<\ry well indeed upon a back? ground of smooth pink skin. A dash of cold water frequently ?applied with a spray will bleach the nose for a fe.w minute-.; and a slight rubbing with snow is good fo a nose that Is scarlet. IV-.it it Is better ro put a good bbach upon it at night and Kft It, grnduully fade by morning. The woman who lias tho habit of rubbing her no-e skyward will lie re? warded by flaring nostrils. The pushing of the no?e upward gives it a wing shape. It Is better 1? pinch thin no.-io and pull ?" toward the earth.( ?'New York Sun.
