(APiLily Pons, Metropolitan opera atar, today aald she wss estranged from her husband, August Meant, but that divorce plana were being held In abeyance owing to her engagement ft) Ual EalM B betas, No Campaign at All ATA political rally in Carnegie Hall, New York City, over 25 year ago, the late John Hay, then secretary of atate, advanced to the footlights, and after the tumult and ehouting had died down remarked blandly: "Ladies and gentlemen, this has been a very quiet cam paign!" To a certain cub reporter, who had been immersed In the contest between Alton B.. Parker and Theodore Koosevelt, for several weeks, that remark appeared quite preposterous. Never theless John Hay was right. For one who had been .in the thick of presidential campaigns, since the first shot on Fort Sumpter, that contest bad been a very quiet one. e e e fNE wonders what John Hay would say could he be here, during this campaign with the election less than two months away. Quiet would hardly be the word. He would probably declare and with some truth, that there had been no campaign at all. Probably when Governor Roosevelt starts his swing around 'the circle, politics will warm up. Even so, this presidential .campaign promises to be the quiet est on record. rlJ reason is not far to seek. There is no enthusiasm for for either candidate, outside of the rabid partisans. Last night at a local movie theatre Franklin Roosevelt delivered an address, via the loud speaker. He appeared to be interested in what he waa saying, but no one elae was. There was not only no applause, there waa no attention. Two girls, directly behind the writer, talked so loud, the words of the democratic candidate, could hardly be distinguished. In Denver a week ago, at an afternoon movie, President Hoover was shown on horseback, at his Rapidan camp, and later seated with a dog. he pictures were shown in a silence so complete, it could hardly be termed respectful. a a a e INSTEAD of deploring this absence of hysteria and excitement we are inclined to welcome it. The more oalmly and. quietly the people go to the polls in November, the more they are in fluenced by their heads, and the less by their emotions j the better for their country, and the better for themselves. Hoover Gains Steadily SINCE President Hoover's acceptance speech, no competent observer can deny, the popular trend hag all been in his direotion. He has been steadily gibing; Roosevelt has been steadily losing. Whethsr or not this reaction can go far enough, to overcome the handicap under which the Republican party, (as "ins") suffers, only the November battle of ballota can show But if relatively Bpeaking this "dead calm" persists, the Republicans will have all the best of it. For the common sense view of the sit.uation ia this : No vital issues separate the two parties.. The nominal dif ferences, when subjected to close analysis, are merely the dif ferences between tweedle-dum and tweedle-dee. THE contest therefore comes down largely to personalities, ' rather than principles. Messrs. Hoover, Mills and Stimson are on one side; Messrs. Roosevelt, McAdoo and Hearst on the other. The former have a definite program of reoonstruotion, backed up by valuable experience gained during the past four years. If the latter have any definite program, it has not been divulged. To date the Roosevelt trio have generally condemned the Hoover program, but have offered no definite program of their own. Tet no one can deny if Roosevelt is elected, his policies will be largely determined, by himself, McAdoo and Hearst. That was the price he paid for getting the nomination at Chicago. McAdoo will be given anything he wants. Hearst will probably ask no political reward, but will be the "power behind the throne." In an atmosphere of calm deliberation this situation will be clearly seen, by the American people as a whole. And in such an atmosphere there is little doubt, that they will prefer Hoover, Stimson and Mills, behind a definite pro gram, to those strange political bed fellows, Roosevelt, McAdoo and Hearst, with no program at all. ; . Roosevelt and Hearst IF Roosevelt shoould win, and Hearst thus be a power in a democratic administration, it will be unprecedented in the yellow journalist's tempestuous career. Nominally a Democrat, he has been a bitter opponent of democratic presidents since Cleveland. In fact, he has been the bitter and implacable foe of every American president, with the exception of President Coolidge. This was not because William Randolph so loved the dour and canny Cal, as he hated Al Smith. He hated President Wilson also, and probably did more than any other one man, to bring about Wilson's physical collapse and downfall. IT will he interesting to see how the Hearst-Roosevelt alliance works out. Hearst could never get along with T. R. but Franklin is a Roosevelt of another color. No one could manage the Colonel j but the Governor, as Al Smith has pointed out, can be. Not necessarily in any derogatory sense, but he wel comes help. He is not a lone hand leader, he is essentially a co-operator and a conciliator. That is the type William Randolph regards aa his "dish." But if this alliance runs true to the form of other Hearst alli ances, it will end as the Hearst-Champ Clark alliance ended, with Roosevelt "out" and William Randolph continuing his unprincipled and aelf-seeking political course, aa ever.

Many Troubles, One Big, Spanish Confiscation, Copyright King reatures Synd., Ino. For a picture of high grade efficiency in our noble "unem ployment relief" consider this: On the highway near Hemp stead, L. I., yesterday morning, a long line of automobiles stood on one side of the road, anoth er line on the other side of the road. Forty to fifty men were scattered along the roadside, working, at the public expense. And what do you suppose they were doing! Were they . repairing the road, building a new road,, a house in which someone might live, cultivating the soil! No, nothing like that. These unemployed were PULLING UP WEEDS. A man would bend over every little while, pull up one weed, look at it thoughtfully, walk a few yards, throw it on a pile, walk back and pull another weed.' The men laughed at themselves and at each other. They know that millions of weed growing in the fields along the road will aupply seed for a fresh weed crop next year. Their work and their time are wast ed; they know It. The whole thing Is mockery, telling them to go out, wasting their oil and gasoline in their automobiles, and squsnder their time on wasted labor. . These men would like to work at something useful, and they are con scientious. When weeds are lacking along the highway, the wander Into privately owned fields, and pull up weeds there. Many of the men wear new white cloth gloves to protect their hands; they are not used to pulling rough weeds. And that 1 the beat that Ameri can Intelligence can find for '.die men to do. That 1 how our compe tent welfare gentlemen waste the time ot workers, and apend money that might be used to produce some thing worth while. If any Intelligent European could see this United State "welfare work" he would think himself in sn Insane asylum, not among so-called intelli gent people. In troubled time like these, it is Important to give radical advice carefully. A railroad president, with the best of intentions, emphasises the public's duty to the unemployed, adding casually: "I'd steal before I'd starve." When Wallace F. Mitchell was picked up dead with a bullet In him, a newspaper clipping of that state ment waa found in hla pocket. He had some hungry children, took the auggeatlon literally, and waa shot dead while trying to a teal a bottle of milk from a grocery store In Phila delphia. A thought, harmless tn the mouth of a philosopher or a railroad presi dent, msy be dsngerous when taken too literally by a little man. Trotsky, who once ruled Russia with Lenin and Is now in exile.

AN OCULIST OFFER g SOME POINTERS A printed folder giving patient suggestions sbout spectacles snd eye glasses Is the contribution of an oculist (physician who treats eye dlsesses) to pop ular education.

Whatever hla condition, it la reassuring to the pstlent to know that It Is his own fault. No. 17 pointer tells the reader that "One pair of glasses usually suffices for a person under 40 years of age. After that period of life, two pairs are neoesssry one to correct the defective eye sight and to be worn constantly; the other for near work, because of the fact that every one at 45 years of age needs what is called eye glssses." But the oculist approves the use of double lenses or bifocal one-piece or invisible lenses Instead of two pairs ot glasses, provided these are mount ed In spectacle frame and not worn as pince-nez (eye glasses kept on by a spring). In another pointer the doctor saya the average person haa the idea that glasses will restore them to com fort. ...

So many women, though', risk their beauty by neglect of constipa tion. It often causes loss of pep tallow skins, dull eyes, pimples. Yet constipation can be overcomi by eating Kellogg's All-Bran. Thii cereal provides 'bulk" to exercisi the intestines, and Vitamin B whicfc tones the intestinal tract. All-Bran also supplies iron for the blood. The "bulk" In All-Bran Is mucl like that of lettuce. Special cooking processes make it finer, more pal stable. It is not habit-forming.

The oculist reminds us thst, in many cases of eye -strain the action of the eye muscles hs become so unreliable that the proper glasses, flted after careful measurement of the vision by the oculist or optom etrist, msy make everything look dis torted for a while. But the patient should follow the orders of the epec lsllst until the muscles, under the correcting influence of the glssses. regain normal balance. Thla may require two or three week in some casea.

There may be debate whether older folk should us the eye when there Is any eyestrain or wear the correc tion offered by optometrist or oculist.
