The Revised Statutes, chap. 1917, sec. s.,
provide that "Whoever advertises his wares
or occupation by painting notices or afiixing
them to fences, &C., or in the highway, or
any public place, without consent, shall be
punished by fine Of $40 for each offence"
This practice has become so common and
offensive it is suggested that it is time some
thing should be done to stop it. Rock, fence
and sidewalk "artists" will please to observe
the provisions of the statutes.

How a President is Elected.

The question is often asked as to
how the President of the United
States is elected. We will answer.
Each State is entitled to as many
electors for President and Vice-Presi-
dent as it has Senators and Represent
atives in Congress.
In each State the electors are cho-
sen by a plurality vote. That is, If
there are three sets of electors voted
for, the highest number Of votes is
chosen.
But a candidate for President, in
order to be successful, must have a
majority of all the electors.
If there be three candidates fol
President and none of them receive q
majority of the electoral college,
there is no choice, and the election
then goes to the House of Representa-
tives.
The House must confine theil
choice to the three highest candidates
voted for by the electors The Rep
resentatives vote by States, and eacE
State has but one vote; so that th'
power of Delaware is as great as tina
of New York A candidate, to b.
successful, must receive n majority o
all the States, or nineteen States. !
the delegation is divided, the vote o
the State can not be cast, and there
fore is lost Columbus Gazette.

A wonderful discovery, it is claim
ed, has been made in Boston. in tire
application of steam. The machine
has already been put into successful
operation in that city. It is called a
Obi Sulphide of Carbon Engine" and
it is claimed that it will reduce the cost
of steam power over sixty per cent
The popularity of the invention con-
sists in novel arrangement by which
the great amount of heat that escapes
into the air in the waste OF exhaust
steam from engines is utilized by con
Quoting it through the tubes of boiler
filed with bi-sulphide of carbon, a
fluid which boils at 110 deg. Fahren-
heit, and at the atmosphere of exhaust
steam gives a pressure of sixty-five
pounds to the inch in the boiler. The
vapor formed in this boiler is used in
stead of steam to drive an engine, and
after being used is condensed by cool
ing, pumped into the boiler again and
used continuously without loss. Care
