cARLYLE's CENTENARY.

One hundred years ago today Thomas

1t is the rule often proved In history
that in proportion as men make personal
stir In literature during their lives they
make less after death Keats sas almost
nobody while he lived. Year by year his
place in tho aeniiration and worship uf

ing his life was as conspicuous and as
forceful personality as Samuel Johnson
in his day. with his death his Fame was
bound to decline within that domain
where the only test is not personal Inn
presslveness but the enduring quality OF
the written word. Had time required

Nevertheless. even with time, the fame
Of Carlyle cannot fade. II rests upon a
body Of powerful aud permanent work,
informed with SURPRISING grasp Of great
events, authentic In what purports to be

being and sincere In It's loyalty TO the
authors perceptions and convictions

teller. shall have sunk into the neglect
due to history written according to the
ethics Of the counterfeiter and travels

Intensity OF coal and wood neat In the
proportion Of 80 per cent.
If the direction printed on each pack
age Is carefully observed, tine Eureka
Coal Economizer will give TO any Crdina-

that of superior quality.
The Eureka Fuel Bcononizer prevents
the shoots, the cinders and the formation
OF smoke, which may spoil, in an apart
ment, so many valuable articles, such
ais curtains paintings, etc.
The Eureka burns any kind Of gas
which might destroy the breathI1ble air;
apartments and factories in which II is
used are consequently more healJhy and
comfortable. In less than five minutes,
one can obtain very brisk fire which
will last thirty hours without being stirr-
ed up and without any addition of fresh
coal. Hence an economy of coal, work
and money.
The Eureka Economizer produces heat
more soft and more concentrated; when
a normal heat is wanted, the ventilation
must be parity stopped and, again. an
economy In fuel Is to be relied upon.

duces no injurious effect on the health,

1t is not often that voters have chance
to honor with their confidence man 50
thoroughly worthy as is Mr.. Henry Nell
son. Years ago, in the halcyon days OF
salmon canning, as bookkeepsr and par
tial manager for the West Coast Packing
Co and the Fishermen's Packing Co., his
worth as a careful. honest man Of busl-
ness was fully proven. These two in
stitutions were the most prosperous and
progressive Of all the cooperative Gamer
les. and great deal Of this success was
due to his care and foresight. His famil-
iarity with his profession enables him to
form the clerical work and accounts of
any employer that seeks his services. His
long residence In this city, his fidelity
to the highest interests Of the Republican
party, during all of that lime, and his
present position as a candidate without
solicitation, all combine TO make him
worthy of any honor that may be bestow-
ed on him. The books Of the city of AS
torla are IN a condition which Is the nat
ural result of inoompetency. rhe present
incumbent has never attempted 10 better
their condition because he didn't know
Row, and for that matter no man who
has ever occupied the position has really
been capable of performing its duties
Mr.. Nelson will work as faithfully for
the city, as he has worked for private in
dividuals, and, what is more to the point,
he knows how to do it. His opponent
does not.
When osburn heelers solicit you for
votes ask them II they can say word
against Mr.. Nelson's ability, or against
his reputation. Ask them what kind OF
service they think he would render If he
were elected to the position Of auditor a I'd
police judge. Then vote accordingly.

chine Is identlcally y same as the ordl-

ports hlch clear the wheels from the
ground, To the wheels is attached an
instrument which records on a register
adjoining the machine every revolution,
All the rider must do Is to mount the
wheel and work the pedals, So many
revolutions make mile, and that is all
there Ia to the machine, althouhg II Is
quite an ingenious invention.
The rider is not compelled to pace any
one, decent have to turn corners, nor
need he fear collisions or fall. All he
must do is to work his feet, and though
he may run any number of miles, when
he is through he win not have moved an
