A CONTEST OF UGLINEss.

GEORGE H. had a Master Of Revels
named Heidegger, who was egregiously
ugly. 1t amounted to distinction. So
much go that two young gentlemen were
found prepared to advance the proposition
that Heidegger was the ugliest human being
In England. The wager was offered and
was taken. London was ransacked for
native deformity, and some very remark
able specimens of uncouthness and mispro-
pertien were discovered. At last in st.
Giles's one old woman was detected whose
unsightliness seemed to surpass anything
that could have been believed. She and
Heidegger were brought face to face, and
the latter, who was proud Of his personal
appearance, admitted that he had at length
met his match. But it is the advantage Of
q contest on which bet depends that there
are plenty of persons interested and standing
by to see fair play done. One Of Heidegger's
supporters remarked that the old woman
owed much Of her expression to her bonnet,
and he suggested that, to make the contest
perfectly fair, Heidegger should put on the
bonnet too. The Master of Revels assented,
ard so did those who backed the old woman's
supporters. Heidegger accordingly looked
50 overwhelmingly ugly that the bet could no
longer be disputed The Master Of the
Revels triumphantly maintained his position
Of being the ugliest of his Majesty subjects.

what Canses the Blood to Circulate

what Canses the Blood to Circnlste
To what degree the heart is aided by
other forces is vet matter of investi-
cation. Probably there are several
forces assisting. The elasticity of the
arteries increases their carrying capsci-
ty. They are firm, elastic tubes, which
expand under the pressure from each
heart contraction, and then by their
own elasticity contract and help the on
ward flow of the blood. In the smaller
arteries the flow loses the intermittent
character lit Possesses in the larger
arteries, and becomes steady stream
The elasticity Of the arteries serves pre-
cisely the same purpose rs the air cham
Der Of any foree-punlp, that of equaliz-
ing the flow, and so increasing the
amount delivered. The whole force is
derived from the heart; the arteries
cause the force to act continuously.
The veins are lax tubes somewhat
larger than TIE arteries, and capable of
holding all the blood of the body. They
convey the same amount of blood rs the
latter, but more slowly. In the larger
veins, however, near the auricles, the
velocity may be 200 milimetres per
second. They are provided with valves
which efectually prevent the blood from
flowing backward toward the heart
Any compression, produced by muscu-
lar contraction or otherwise, will there
fore assist the forward flow OF venous
blood. This is one explanation why ex-

AMONG OUR EXCHANGES.
Their Notions and Ours,

The press of the State has been
full of complimentary notices of
Morgantown's centennial celebra-
tion.-New Dominion.
After all, we do not see land
ahead for the Prohibition party. It
seems to be foundering around
without much purpose, in rather
deep sea- Wetsel Demacrat.
Why, Dear Democrat, don't you
know the Piohibitionists are not
Gland luboers" at all, and are not
worrying about any "land ahead?"
They are "cold water" party and
it is their purpose and business to
make the old parties take aoater.
Ex-President Arthur says he did
not save cent of the 100000 he
received as salary while President.
-Erchange.
Let them try West Virginia
editor in the White House one
term, and see if he don't come out
with a V or an x ahead.
Editor The Votce.--I advise you
not to send any more copies of your
miserable paper to me, as they
would follow the copy l just re-
ceived into the basket.-O. HedI-
burg, 20 ". 20 tn. St., NeaO York.
Mr.. Hedilburg is mistaken in
calling The Voice miserable. 1t is
in most excellent spirits.-TM

Mr.. Hedilburg evidently meant
that tho Voice of truth made him
miserable.
More gospel and less prohibition
is what the people are demanding
of some of our clergy Wetzel Demo-
crdt.
More of the gospel of Prohibition
is what the people are demanding
of many of our editors.

Transporting Misery.

On a recent trip of the steamer
Chancellor she brought to the whis-
ky dealers of this city 1880 dozen
pint and half pint whisky bottles
and 1920 two and three gallon jugs
to be used in the whisky business.
1t would appear that old John Bar
leycorn has few friends in this
section yet,-Kanaaoha Gazette.
1t is quite an easy matter to
count bottles and jugs, but there
are no means of computing the vast
cumulations of misery, wretched-
ness and woe, violence, crime and
murder, that these 1880 bottles and
1920 jugs will carry into the coun-
try districts of the beautiful Kama
wha Valley.
What Prohibitionists seek and
what they are determined to &C
complish, is to break up these vehi-
Giles and lines for transporting mis-
cry to and through the otherwise
peaceable and happy communities
of the State. We must have con-
stitutional Prohibition to blockade
these open avenues of debauchery,
crime and death.

Grafton Eagle on Figures.

In the great State of New York
the Prohibitionists gained this year
$500 over the vote of that party in
1884, when the State cast 1921 $50
votes. This information will no
doubt be gratifying to the Third
Party leaders. At the same rates
of increase they will be able to
carry the State in about two hun
dred and forty years.-Ggton
Eagle.
Mr.. Eagle should say $500 Pro-
hibition gain, instead of $500; and
then should take a pencil in his
beak and CIPHER after this fashion {:
In the great State Of New York the
Republicans lost this year $4,000
votes from their vote of 1884. At
the same rate of decrease the Re-
publican party will have no votes at
all in New York in about s years.
West Virginia freeman. (Parkersburg, W. Va.) 1881-1886, 1885-11-25
How about the Sober Vote.

If the Republican party would
succeed in the future it's course
must be 30 shaped as to secure the
support of the Irish and labor vote.
State Tribune.
The course of the Republican
party or any other party who would
succeed must be 30 shaped as to
labor in the interest of the masses
of the people and against their
plunderers.-Ir repressible.
1t is all right to look after the
Irish and labor vote, but how about
the sober vote2
Have the Temperance people
and the homes of the country no
rights that parties are bound to re-
spect?
The party of the future must so
shape its policy as to secure both
the labor and sober vote, whose in
terests are identical and must be
subserved.

B. & o. Victory.

1t will be good news to many ten
thousands of people to know that
the B. & Q. Company has at last
effected an entrance and secured
terminal facilities into New York
City. An arrangement has been
effected and contracts signed with
the Staten Island Rapid transit
Company whereby B. d o, traffic
is to reach Staten Island. This
will be to the immense advantage
of the people and business OF the
country, neutralizing the dominat-
ing monopoly hitherto exercised
by the Pennsylvania Central.
Hurry up the bridges and con-
nections, gentlemen of the B. & O.
and sell US thro' ticket to New
York without change of cars.

o. K. r. TAX.
Mason County Take Notice.

Now that the Assessor has been

enting little tickets, it is matter
of no little interest to note how
soon the outlay spent by the coun-
ties in securing the right of way
tor the o. R. R. Is coming back in

Wetzel County receives in taxes
this first year, from the O. R. R.
$1,595,71, while Marshall County
receives about $4,000, and SO on.
