Iowa's Monday primaries add one more to the spring string of deatb knell to the nominating convention. In a direct primary Senatgr Kenyon, Insurgent, overwhelms Lafe Young, Btnndnatter. for the senatorial nomi nation. A few weeks ago an Iowa "style,' state republican convention was held under such complete control of the standpatters that Senator Cummins could not get the presidential endorse ment of his own state. The season has repeatedly furnished such Instances, the voters In direct primary going one way, the professional politicians In convention going the opposite way. Perhaps the professional politician, who controls conventions nine times In ten, would govern the American people better than they can govern themselves. Be that as it may, the fact Is demonstrated beyond cavil by this sea.son'8 paralleling of primaries and conventions that popular govern ment is one thing and convention gov ernment another.

Tbe hobble skirt of two years ago is a comfortable looking garment compared with the skimpy skirt of 1912. Corsets have been transformed into straight Jackets. Instead of blps and limbs having some of the freedom Intended by nature they are now put into splints to produce the "blpless effect," which U wholly unnatural and contrary to every rule of common sense. But we must follow style. Yes, fol low, follow, follow the human fam ily must follow something and with women, the guide ana uireetor is even though It reaches tne balr and scalp Itch, and imarpta to the balr a briliancy and lustre that all women as well as men love so dearly.
