HAS LIVED ON LACYATED FOOD.
on so suddenly and so commonly prove
fatal, put the baby without delay on
a diet of this splendid nutriment, lac
tated food. 1t fully nourishes the child.
yet does not irritate the intestinal tract
that has been disturbed by hot weather.
nor oyerturn the sick stomach. Weak
pining and fretful babies are quieted by
lactated food. They take it eagerly and
gain steadily in weight and size, with
out interruption because of hot weat ther.
Parents are apt to wait from day to
day hoping for Improvement in the con-
dition of their child. 1t is this unwise
delay that so often costs the child's life.
At the first indication that baby is not
taking sufficient food for rapid growth,
or when the child shows signs of weak
ness, its skin continually wet with pre-
spiration, its lips and cheeks pale and
its eyes heavy, it is imperative
that the little one should be
better nourished. Lactated food at
once improves the appetite and
makes sure that the child's diges-
tion is supplying strength and the
means for steady growth. Babies grow
big and strong on lactated food. Close
observation of countless weaving ba-
bies, and of others not thriving because
they cannot be induced to eat, or be-
cause their food does not nourish them,
led to the preparation of lactated food
The thousands of happy parents who
write to the manufacturers of lactated
food that their babies thrive and keep
well constantly after beginning to take
the food regularly-these thousands are
but small number compared with the
many who recommend it personally to
their friends and neighbors. Mr.. Wal
ter b. Hall, of Lowell, Mass, sending
picture of himself, wife and child, says
pointedly: "Our baby has always been
fed on lactated food, and 1t has always
agreed with him."
Practical physicians prescribe lactat-
ed food to be kept always on hand and
used at once on the first indication of
looseness or loss of strength, or If baby
is evidently not thriving on its present
diet. Lactated food is the infant food
physicians use in their own families.

POLITICAL JOTTlNGS.

Constable Timothy Jones, Ben Grif-
fiths. the rector, and the present in
cumbent NJ. l.. Blair. are candidates
for alderman of the Fifth ward.
z. w. Breene and Frank Hanley are
candidates for delegate to the next
Democratic county convention from the
Second district of the Nineteenth ward.
The candidates now in the field for
the First legislative district Republi-
can nomination are: Fl. ID. Jones, John
r. Farr, e. f. Robathan, of the West
Side, and Isaac Jones and NJ. L. San
ders, of the North End
Attorney c. p. O'Malley will not be
candidate for denomination in the
Fourth legislative district this year.
His law practice is engrossing all of his
attention at present and gives him no
time to devote to politics.
w. j. Burke has Joined the rapidly
increasing number of Democrats who
want place on the county ticket as
candidates for county commissioners.
Eight years ago Mr.. Burke was one of
the commissioners of the county and is
familiar with the duties of the office.
Chairman =. j. Mccormick, of the
Democratic Fourth legislative district
standing committee, has issued a call
for a convention to be held in Maytied
on Tuesday, September /, to nominate
q candidate for the legislature. There
are number of Democrats who are am
bilious to represent the district and
there will be n lively fight for the NOM
ination which, however, does not carry
with it the assurances of an election as
was once the case.
Attorney John ]. Bonner, of Old
Forge, and Michael NJ. c. Judge, of
Taylor, want the Democratic nomina-
tion for legislature in the Third dis
trict, but they do not care to fight each
other for 1t. Friends are endeavoring
to persuade one Of them to drop out
of the fight and allow the other to have
clear sailing for the nomination. There
is a normal Republican majority of 800
in the district and the man who is in
duced to drop out of the race will have
by far the best of the deal.

THE IRON WORK BEHIND TIME.
Is Della ying Progress of Work on ahe
Court House.

Progress of work on the court house
is being somewhat retarded on account
of the failure of the iron work to ar
rive. 1t is expected that the first ship
ment of the iron will reach the city
Tuesday and work can then be pushed
rapidly forward.
The county commissioners have Civ
en- up hope of having the building
ready for use at the September term
of court and on Thursday requested
Postmaster Nandling to allow the fed
eral court room in the postoflice build

Mr.. Vandling has communicated the
request to the department and al

night for tramps who give the watch
man no end to trouble.
Friday morning during a "spell' in
the mill Rogan went outside and sat
down on a bench and soon fell asleep.
He was discovered by a watchman who
was making his rounds and supposing
that the sleeper was a tramp he hit
him blow on the head with heavy
stick he carried in his hand.
The stick was broken and Rogan
dropped unconscious at the feet Of the
badly frightened watchman. At first
1t was feared that Rogan's skull was
fractured and that his injuries would
prove fatal. He was removed to his
home on the West Side where it was
discovered that his injuries are not so
severe as was at first supposed.

ACCUSED OF PERJURY.
Louis Eppstein Charged with Fur.
nishing Straw Bail.

Louis Eppstein, well known in alder
manic offices. because Of the interest he
Is wont to take in providing bail for
foreigners who get into trouble, was
arrested yesterday for furnishing straw
bail before Alderman Roberts.
Otto Myers and Adam Splitter, North
End business men had one Simon Petri-
tus arrested for obtaining goods under
false pretenses. When Petritus was ar.
raigned before Alderman Roberts, Epp-
stein became his bondsman in the sum
of $500. swearing that he owned unin-
numbered real estate. The prosecutor
made an investigation of the court rec
ords and became satisfied that Epp.
stein had perjured himself.
Eppstein when arrested by Special Of
ficer Charles Vockroth, decided to &C
before Alderman Howe, waive hearing
and enter bail, taking s. Hinerfeld along
as bondsman. The alderman had heard
of Eppstein and Hinerfeld and refused
to accept the latter as surety.
They then sent out and got ]. M

JOHN EINIG in THE CITY.
Came Here 10 See His Daughters and
Prosecute Bishop Who Enticed
Them from Home.

1t developed yesterday that the en-
ticing of the two Einig girls from Phila-
delphia through the medium of Mrs.
Hunters employment. agency by old
Emmet Bishop, Of this city,. was not
Bishops first offence in that line.
John Einig, the father of the two
girls, came here to see his little ones,
and through him it was learned that
Bishop several months ago brought an
Alice Clark here from Philadelphia, un-
der much the same circumstances as in
the case of the Einigs. He obtained the
Clark girl also through the Hunter wo-
mans agency. Her father, too, came to
Scranton and took her home.
Mr.. Einig is an intelligent and re-
spectacle German. He arrived here
yesterday morning and with Father
Christ, to whom the girls had gone
for protection. and Mrs. Duggan. the
Associated Charities agent, visited the
House of the Good Shepherd. where the
girls were sheltered. The meeting be-
tween Einig and his children was very
affecting. He will see to 1t that the
girls give testimony against Bishop be-
fore the grand jury.
Einig's story was much the same as
that of the girls at the hearing before
Mayor Bailey, and which resulted in
Bishop being sent to Jail in default of
bail. He told In addition that Helen,
the younger girl, was i'll and in the
hospital during Bishops Philadelphia
visit, but was to go away with him
and Annie because of his glowing word
picture of the big stone hotel" where
the younger girl could have care and
conveniences and regain her health.
Bishop, he said, succeeded in getting
away without leaving an address, and
the father knew nothing of the where
abouts of his children nor their plight
until he read an account of 1t Thurs
day in Scranton dispatch to Phila-
delphia paper.
The father urged that he be allowed
to see Bishop, but was pacified and dis
suaded from his purpose.

Trained Nurses Say Only Absolute Safety Is
In LaC!ated Food.

Wherever no especial precaution is
taken in feeding children, hot weather
is just as sure to multiply the deaths
of infants as the infants are to be born.
Babies and young children feel the
disastrous effect of high temperature
much more than others.
Half the deaths in August are those of
children under years. Every summer
more than a third of all who die are
infants.

The Lynchburg News believes that

would ultimately entail more misery

In the history OF the world" Yet the

ia what politicians call consistency. In
come sections OF our country people are
rude enough to call 1t party slavery,
but this Is because they are in 8 hurry
and haven't time to thoroughly rAmif-
cate the subject, and by the circuitous

AS to the question Of there being a

SECRET POL1TIOAL SOCIETIES.

It is very plain that up to this time
Mckinley and his friends have played
winning cards in the game for the Re-
publican Presidential nomination. 1t is
evident that the majority of Republican
voters, believing Mckinley to be the
embodiment of the policy Of protectio
desire. that he shall be the standard
bearer Of the party in the coming presi'
Dental campaign. This has been
demonstrated by Republican conven-
tions in many States, and so pronounced
has the sentiment become that 1t Is now
conceded by the friends and oppo-
nents Of the Ohio statesman that his
nomination for Presidents on the first
ballot is practically assured.
ALI through the CANVASS so far Me-
KinleY's managers have kept him client
on the financial issue and have other
wise KEEP. a strict watch and ward over
his utterances. This guardianship
has not, however, been strong enough to
keep the ex-governor from the manipu-
lations OF the a. p. A. Some weeks ago
the advisory board of this organization
declared that Mckinley could not be
consistently supported by the members
of the order, as his leanings were too
much in the direction of Catholicism.
At the meeting OF the supreme council
last week, however. Mckinley was for
mally acquitted OF the charges against
him, and the members OF the asscci-
alton left free to support him for Presi-
dent II they desired. There Is nothing
wrong in this for Mckinley as far as 1t
GOES, but now 1t Is claimed that at &C.
cret conference with q committee OF the
council at Canton, Mckinley unquali-
hedly endorsed the principlee of the or.
der.
II this be true the Ohio statesman has
C committed serious blunder. Secret
societies that seek to WELD political
power are dangerous sdjuncts to free
institutions, and the politician that
binds himself to them by pledges for
the support their members may give
him, commits q serious mistake. The
American people, as whole, are far
too intelligent to commit themselves TO
any doctrine which ostracises man for
his place Of birth or for his religious
views, as the members Of the old know
nothing party found to their sorrow and
disappointment many years ago, and as
others who propagate similar doctrines
will discover hereafter. A society tina.
cannot trust its principles and its prac-
ices to the search light OF American
public opinion can never elect g. Presi-
len. or control q Government as great
md free as the American republic.
