The palate is almost
tickled with SCOTS Emul-
sion of Cod-liver oil. The
stomach knows nothing
about it, it does not trouble
you there. You feel it first
in the strength it brings; it
shows in the color of cheek
and smoothing out of
wrinkles.
1t was a beautiful thing
to do, to cover the odious
taste of Cod-liver oil, evade
the tax on the stomach, and
take health by surprise.

he will, if elected, know no faction,

The Clearfeld Republican wants
the next Legislature to pass a law
giving the County Commissioners
power to establish training schools for
election board. The Republican as
serts that some of the returns made
to our Courts of elections held are a
disgrace to a civilized community.
Men who can hardly write their
names sit on election boards, and
Others who know as little as possible
about our laws are chosen as Judges
and these men pass upon the qualifi-
cations Of voters. AS long as cleo
tion officers are chosen without re-
gard to fitness, the only remedy lies
in establishing training schools"

The Judgeship contest in this, the
Twenty-sixth judicial district, took
on new phase last week, when the
Attorney General notified the Chair
man of the Prohibition County Com
mittee that the certificate of nomina-
tion Ct Hon. Charles Hawley, of
Scranton, Prohibition candidate for
President Judge, would not be ac-
cepted. The Attorney General states
that in order to file a certificate OF
nomination the party doing so must
have polled for the same Office, at a
previous election, at least two per
cent. of the highest vote cast. AS
our prohibition friends had no candi-
date in the field, and no representa-
ton at the Judicial election ten years
ago. they are, of course, out in the
cold. There is but one thing left to
do, and that is to take out nomina-
tion papers.
