PEARY ARCTIC EXPEDITION,
Belief that Explorer Will Not Return This
Autumn.

Autumn.
The failure of the Peary exploring
steamer Windward to return from the
north leads to the belief that the ex-
plorer will not attempt to get back
this autumn. Probably the season
just passed was an open one in the far
north. Should thould that have been
the case, Lieutenant Peary is likely to
have taken the Windward into some
high latitude, hoping to use her in a
further expedition next season. This
would mean that he has made no
special record during the present year.

BEST GAMBLING SYSTEM.
The One That Will Surely Beat Faro

The One That Will Surely Beat Faro
and Roulette.
Every confirmed gambler in the
world has spent more or less time try
ing to figure out some system to beat
the game" said a we'll known northern
sporting man. THE cOmmonest and
most plausible scheme is the one known
as progression 1t is simply dOu-
bling of bets until winning occurs,
and theoretically it is perfect, but the
trouble is that all gambling games
have a limit. and the doubling process
increases a wager with such enormous
rapidity that it is apt to get over the
stipulated amount before the winning
takes place.
Il was at Monte Carlo last spring"
continued the speaker. "and was sur

ludicrous part Of it was that most Of

ported to sell secrets which would in
fallibly enrich any purchaser. | asked
one fellow why he didn't try his sys-
TEN himself and buy Il new hat. and
he replied very glibly that he was
working for a syndicate and under

Nearly all of these systems are

How 1t Came to Be Tuesday After
First Monday In November.
The designation Of the day for hold
ing the presidential election is left to
congress. The first act passed by it re-
lating to that subject was in 1892. 1t
provided that presidential electors
should be appointed within "a days
before the first Wednesday in Decem-
ber." This left each state free to select
a day to suit itself within those limits.
Pennsylvania chose electors on the last
Friday in October. Other states elect
ed theirs on different days between the
beginning and middle of November
When Harrison was elected in 1910,
the Democrats asserted that his sue
cess was due partly to fraudulent vot-
ing, which was made possible by the
lack of a definite election day. 1t was
alleged that Kentucky and Ohio Wings
had voted in both states. the election
being held on different days. So in
1915 the Democrats passed the law
now on the statute books making the
first Tuesday after the first Monday
election day.
At that time but five of the 26 state:

tHE LOVE SIGN OF THE ROSE.

She trained a little rose to grow
And grace the gate above,
And hence love the pathway SC
That leads me to her love,
And oft my heart before ME goes
To read the love sign OF the Rose.
Through fairer bloom for lovers tryst
To me it seems fair
As if an angels lips had kissed
And blessed it blooming there,
For heaven its sweetest smile bestows
On the dear love sign of the Rose.
The pattering of little feet -.
When shadows blur the light,
And rosy twining arms that meet
And necklace me at night,
These my alad heart enraptured knows
At the dear love sign OF the Rose.
Not far away Loves steps shall stray
In thorny paths to roam,
While DER the meadows of life's May
Shine signals sweet of home.
When night falls drear one heart still knows
Rest at the love sign of the Rose.
