ELECT ANGLE.

We have urged voters to consult
their own and the countys intert ST
by electing man as representative
who will be with the majority i'm the
House and so in a position to obtain
desired legislation. In asking this
we have no selfish motive, no private
end to gain, nothing but a desire to
benefit the people generally. We do
not ask Democrats to change their
political belief, we simply ask that
for once you cast aside politics and
vote as your interests lie. We
submit that for years you have voted
politics and in what have you been
benefited? The party has no hope
of electing Senator, the only possi-
BILE reason that could urged why you
should send a Democrat vote for An
gle does not effect the National ticket,
hence if you believe that the county
might be benefited by his election it
is duty you owe not only to your
selflbut your neighbors to send him
to the legislation.
Thousand of acres of land in this
county have been purchased by the
State, they are now exempt from
taxation, the roads, always bad
enough, will now have less money for
their care, school, poor, Indebtedness
and county taxes willincrease, These
burdens many be lightened by prop
er appropriations. 1t may be said
that Republican legislature passed
the forestry law and that no redress
can be obtained. Had your Demo-
cratic member been alive to the situ-
tiOn and pointed out to the body the
effect on this county of that act he
would have done his duty and the
real blame could be elsewhere at
tached, He did not do so, hence as
your representative, he failed you at
a time when his voice and effort was
needed. Would another Democrat
have weight, even if he had the de-
sire, to have an act passed by a ma
jority hostile to him. These are SER
ious matters. We have common
interest in the welfare of our county
and in her prosperity and are only
asking that you look at this as bust
ness proposition, which after all it
really is, and say whether it will pay
you better to vote name, or a sub
stantial hope of improving your con-
dition. Angle has assurances of aid
from prominent men in an effort to
supply the tax deficiency by a State
appropriation for roads in this county.
This will be a direct benefit to all The
people. Are they going to throw it
aside simply because they will not
break away from name?

The Cause of Signing.

Prof. Lumsden says that signing is
but another name for oxygen starv-
alton. The cause of signing is most
frequently worry. An interval OF
several seconds often follows NOM
ents of mental disquietude, during
which time the chest walls remain
rigid until the imperious demand is
made for oxygen, thus causing the
deep inhalation. 1t is the expiration
following the inspiration that it is
properly termed the sigh, and this
sigh is simply an effort Of the organ
ism to contain the necessary supply
of oxygen. The remedy is to cease
worrying. One may be anxious, but
there is no rational reason for worry
ing. A little philosophy will Danish
worrying at once. Worrying will
do no good; it will rob one of pleas
ures when blessings do come, as one
will not be in a condition to enjoy
them.-Popular Science News.

BODY-RES STORER

Food is the body-restorer.
In health, you want nothing
but food; and your baby wants
nothing but food. But, when
not quite well, you want to get
back to where food is enough.
One of the most delicate
foods, in the world, is SCOTS
emulsion of cod-liver oil.
When usual food is a burden,
it feeds you enough to restore
your stomach; baby the same.
The body-builder is food;
the body-restorer is SCOTS
