were conferred. Past High Priest J. o.
Bamfield and HOratio Smith doing some
excellent work. Companions Henry,
Wartield, Jones, Howard and Stevens,
are becoming proficient In the work, the
Scribe Companion Smith has no doubt
been al work in making himself pro-
ficient. Companion Turner as King
simply occupied the chair showing an
utter lack of knowledge of the duties
Of his office, not being able to tel the
time Of day. There is no excuse for
such Indifferent work on the part of
Companion King J P. Turner. The
banquet served after the work was q
very enjoyable affair. Companion r

We hope too see good come out of the

reason to believe it will It is q very de
sirabIe feature and brethren having
charge of the plan will produce an &C
ceptable one, we are sure.
Brothers Turner and Male are still
regular and willing workers and their
presence at commune alton Is always
a source OF pleasure Their love for the

Eureka. We hope him a speedy re-

illness came at an unfortunate time,
the extremely warm weather adding to
his discontinue. He is extremely
geateful to visiting brethren, and while
still quite weak, hopes soon to be in
good health again,
Under the name of Grand Proxy
some brother has taken us to task as he
claims for speaking III Of some one and
not the truth. We have at all times
endeavOred to steer clear Of that one
thing. [ have only criticised those
whose work was not up to the standard
of their ability and then justly, we all
love fattery but finch at criticism.
Sir Knight Scott is still confined to
the house, while / am saClsfied that he
is on the improve, yet [ am surprised
that more of the craft do not visit him.
No Sir Knight has given a heartIer well

craftsmen of every branch Of the order.
Visit him and give him word of cheer
and comfort.

 The politician of all men must needs be in good health and splendid spirits. There is nothing 90 exhaustive to body and mind as to conduct q political cam paign with the spirit and vim, courage and intellect thatcharacterize political campaign in the United States.
 Sometimes these campaigns require the speakers and managers to sleep in different bed every night, eat at differ ent hotels every day, travel by day and speak at night for many months st A time.
 No one can endure this strain without some remedy to protect them from the vicissitudes of the climate. Something to insure good digestion and sound sleep, something to give nerve and brain the invigoration necessary to meet such an extraordinary strain. -~., .,*i
 Peruna is the remedy to meetesch one of these conditions. Perhaps 1t would be going too far to say that it is the only remedy that will do this, but at least it is the best known remedy and the best tried remedy and the remedy recom- mended by the most people as exactly adapted to the exposure and exhaustion incident to campaign work.
 Not only does the politician find it exactly the remedy that suits his needs, but the farmer, the housewife, the clergyman, the clerk. the society woman and the day-laborer all alike find Peruna to be not only curative but preventative.
 In this climate where everybody is liable to catarrh and everybody has it in some form or other, Peruna has be- come 8 fixture and like the telephone and the electric light could hardly be spared from civilization.

Dallas County ia thus left with out Probate Judge and apparently without a Circuit Clerk, both positions to be filled by the Governor, when vacancies occur.
 In the meantime Governor Jelka is making no intimation of what he will do to settle the matter. He has an- nounced that he has not been officially notified of the vacancies. It was said yesterday that he would probably take official cognizance of the death of Judge await official notification of the vacancy in the office of Circuit Clerk.
