Here, then, are three inter esting facts: An appeal to the people for campaign contributions is answer ed by less than 100,0C0 out of more than 6,000,000 voters belon&ring to the party; the amount is less than half what the corporations have pven to the high-protection party m times past; yet it was enough for victory. Money is needed in large sums to ma*'sge national campaigns. Socialists can obtain what they need bv charging admission fees to their mass-meetings.

The air of the sick r^om must be kept pure. As every day draws on the patient’s savings bank of vitality, he must be kept as quiet, composed, happy, and as much at peace with the world as possible.

Typhoid bacilli are thrown off by patients in their bowel movements Therefore, these must be sterilized. Heat is the best means of Striking Changes in Jerusalem (From The Churctiman.) The popularity of the Zionist move ment has had the effect of causing a great expansion in the population in Jerusalem. Thousands of Jewish im migrants continue to arrive, and there is a lai^ amount of new building going on ontside the walls, because within the walls there are only 2,009 acres in the town, of which 35 acres are occupied by the Temple intlosurt. On account of the increase in the extramural popu lation, oil the cite gates are now left open at night. With this accession of { new population, the Mohammedan ele ment in the city is sinking to a subor dinate place. Many improvements are contemplated, which will bring what is practically the new Jewish canital to modern standards of administration and hygiene. A French company is about to start a street car lines, and an English company has applied for a concession to introduce a new water system. Proposals are at hand for paving the streets and conducting sewerage work. One of the best illus trations of the temper of the present municipal government was manifested by the arrival lately of a large American motor road roller. The new program includes also a telephone system and the introduction of modern fire-extin guishing apparatus. In order to make the city more accessible for inter national travel, a harbor will b«* provided for Jaffa, constructed by the Jaffa Jeiusalem , Railway Company, which has raised nearly $5,000,000 for this purpose. The Civil Service Order Mr. Taft Wants To Protect His Friends. The ex€Kiutive order of President Taft issued October 15, placing 36,000 fourth-class postmasters, most of them republicans appointed in his adminis tration, under the operation ot the civil service law, is being much dis cussed by southern congressn en who arrive in Washington from day to day. Growing out of numerous appeals that have reached these congressmen from their constituents, a sentiment in f*»* vor of the supension of this order for a period after Wilson’s inauguration has gainad some ground. A pronrinent southern congressman declared today that the President’s order, “placing, as it does, this army of republicans to the express exclusion of democrats permanently in the office without examination and without regard to merit or efficiency, will make honest civil service a farce and will prove the greatest setback to its extension and progress within a generation.” It is recalled in this connection that a short time before the close of Cleve land’s administration, that President issued an order placing railway mail clerics under the operation of the civil service law, and that within a week after his inauguration President Har rison suspended this order until the end of the following May by which time the republicans had lai^ely dis placed democrats in the service. Those congressmen who have heark ened to the complaints that have reached them from their districts, sug gest thac the way is open for Governor Wilson to suspend this executive order and by so doing make it possible for democrats to secure at least a fair representation in the postal service. These congressmen declare that Taft’s action in issuing this order on the eve of election when the result was not in doubt, amounts to nothing more than the pre-emption of 36,000 offices to republicans for life, and that it was direct violation of the spirit of the civil service laws. Night Riders Destroy Much Georgia Tobacco Investigation was instituted at Bain- bridge, Ga , at a meeting of several prominent tobacco growers of the burning of $20,000 worth of tobacco in Decatur county by night-riders. Three large bams were totally destroyed by fire in the Georgia county and two bams of tobacco were consumed by fire across the Florida state line, 20 miles distant. The loss sustained in the latter state is not now known. All of the tobacco barns destroyed were owned by members of an associa tion formed three years ago by large growers to hold the tobacco until a suit able price was offered for it by manCr- facturers. ■ ^ 00 I that I IS YOUR NAME WRIT TEN HERJB.

The visi tors were invited to remain for the night, but on Mr. Tennyson’s stipula ting that if he did he should be allowed to smoke in his bed-room the old lady bridled up. That she could not allow Bed-room smoking was not only ob jectionable but dangerous, and for no one would she relax her prohibition rule.
