garments in memory of the departed
loved one? What is there about black
appropriate for these occasions? Black
suggests nothing sweet, tender or beau
tiful. 1t is not an emblem of purity or
rope. II is symbol of night and
night in scripture is symbol of danger
and despair. Night is the time when
doors are bolted and windows fastened
and when the signing of the wind and
the rustic Of the leaves nettle the
nerves. One Of the best things said
about heaven is that there is no night
there" Then why wear the emblem
OF night IN memory of friends? Did
you ever think tina; it is really refsc-
ton upon them? Besides, it is an un.
healthy custom. Any medical expert
will tell you that. Really the world
needs no symbol of mourning. Nature
hides and heals her scars as soon as
possible. Every soul knows its own
sorrows, and that is enough. No need
to advertise them. But il the world
must have symbol OF sorrow, let 1t be
white, unless indeed the sorrow be
without hope. White is the emblem. OF
purity. White is the symbol Of peace.
White is the garb in which angels are
supposed to be robed. White is the
color of the great throne around which
we like to think our loved ones are
gathered. White is typical Of the eter.

ITCH IS TORTURE.

Eczema is caused by an acid humor in
the blood coming in contact with the
skin and producing great redness and in
Illumination little pustular eruptions form
and discharge thin, sticky fluid, which
dries and scales off sometimes the skin is
hard, dry and fissured. Eczema i'll any
form is a tornenting, stubborn disease,
and the itching and burning at times are
almost unbearable; the acid burning
humor seems to ooze out and set the skin
on fire. Salves, washes nor other exter-
nal applications do any real good, for as
long as the poison remains in the blood
it will keep the skin irritated.

HOW GENERAL GRANT LOST HIS
S<HIRAM."

Not many Americans know that Hiram
U. Grant was the eighteenth President OF
the United States Yet it is true, for
Ulysses Simpson" was never legally the
name of our greatest General. This in
teresting fact is brought out by Frankli,
B. Wiley in THE LADIES HOME JOURNAL
for September, in Famous People as We
Do Not Know Them" The story of how
it came about was told by a member of
Congress-Thomas L. Hamer-who recon-
mended young Grant as a candidate for
West Point in 1889. Mr.. Hamer had
long been friend fthe Grants, but when
he came to make out the applica ton
papers for Ulysses he could not recall the
boys full name. So, deciding that he
was doubtless named for his mothers
family, he wrote it Ulysses Simpson
Grant" Thus was it recorded at West
Point, and though the attention of the
officials was several times called to thu
error they did not feel authorized to cor
rect it. This name was gradually adopt
ed, and by it Grant was, and always will
be, known. But as for any record of the
birth Of ulysses Simpson Grant," that
does not exist.

1t was applying "businesslike'
methods to politicalmatters. Agood
business man neverpaysf for hisgoods
until they have been delivered as per
invoice and found checked, correct as
promised. Our present law does way
with ballot clerks and thus in a large
measure prevents bribery at the polls.
Of course, votes may be still
purchased on promise but the charac-
ter of the citizen who will sell his right
of franchise, is of such a doubtful
nature that it would not be good
business" to invest much money in
this manner.
Under the above statements offacts,
and we challenge any Republican to
disprove their substantial correct
ness, is it not, to say the least, a
little inconsistent for the Republicans
to condemn in their public utterances
what has been fostered and ell
couraged by legislation of their own
creation. Thelaw which by its opera
ton has made Maryland a purchasble
State is the one that they say, today,
cannot in any manner be improved
upon and their leaders at Annapolis
defended it when it was attacked by
the Democratic majority, stubbornly
resisting inch by inch the passage OF
our present law.
The real issue today in Maryland
is this present law and no voter
should allow his mind to be diverted
with flaming bill posters, calculated
to persuade him that some little
matter of local moment needs his
thought when he goes to mark his
ticket. The first thing that the Re-
publicans will do, should they again
come into power, will be to repeal our
present ballot law, therefore, we
should guard it jealously by voting
for those men whom We know are
enemies to fraud and corruption at
the polls.

BRIBERY AT THE POLLS.

All three of the political parties
have held their State political con-
ventions and nominated their candi-
dates. While each has brought to
the front points of a radically differ
ent nature, one feature of their plat
forms seems to be in unison. That
feature is the condemnation of brib-
cry and corruption of voters. The
Democrats took the initiative in
this direction when Governor Smith
called the extra session of the Legis-
lature which passed the present bal
lot law. 1t has now gone down to
history that on this high plane the
Democratic party was successful in
bringing about the recent changes of
the election law.
1t has only been OF recent years
that the use of money has become an
important factor in controlling the
elections of Maryland. Indeed if we
trace the matter back carefully we
will find that its inception was the
adoption of the ballot legislation
which was formulated by the Reform
League of Baltimore and other Re-
publicans throughout the State. In
former times it was the individuality
of man of influence which swayed
the popular vote. Argument was
the only means employed to aid in
the selection of the different office
holders. With the Australian ballot
law all was changed. The man who
possessed some influence was barred
away from the polls by the most
drastic enactments and in his stead
the more potent argument of dollars
distributed by the aid of effective or
ganization, was the ruling factor. 1t
would seem as if it was the intention
of the trainers of this law to drive
away any influence that moral
suasion might have, so that the ques-
ton of sordid gain could be the only
matter to influence the mind of the
voter in making his choice at the
polls. In fact they must have had in
mind an effort to revolutionize the
method of conducting elections and
they certainly were successful.
The Reform League Law provided
for the appointment of two ballot
clerks. These officials it would seem
were useless for any other purpose
except to ascertain the manner in
which the voter cast his ticket. An
easy loop hole was left here, for this
Republican legislation allowed assist
ance to any one who declared his in
ability to read and write. The ballot
clerk knew how he voted and the
proper signal to an outside watcher
contaminated the deal and if the
ticket had been marked in the proper
manner the money was paid. There
could be no chance orquestion about
this. Duplicate tickets could not be
substituted as was sometimes done
under the old way, and thus money
virtually controlled the tally sheets.

BOOTHS PICTURE.

The BelAir Circulating Library has
been enriched by the presentation of
a beautiful portrait ofEdwin Booth,
the actor. The gift is doubly valued
as it is the work of the donor, Miss
Frances Elizabeth Quinby, who like
Booth, is native of Harford-having
been raised near Bel Air. Miss
Quinby, who has made her name
known as an artist, now resides in
Richmond, Virginia, where she has
her studio. She has lately been visit
ing relatives near Bel Air and proves
by her gift that her interest in the
well-doing of our Library is as warm
and heartfelt as when she was a
resident of our immediate neighbor-
hood.
Hartford and Bel Air also claim a
birthright in Edwin Booth. He was
born within a short distance of Bel
Air and there most of his boyhood
was spent. He attended the old Bel
lir Academy-then and in earlier
years, quite noted school, and his
lrstplays were acted before his adj
hiring playmates, in the old barn at
1.-THE Homestead" then the property
of Col, Henry Dorsey, of Edw.
Through all the many changes ola
busy, active and most talented career,
Edwin Booth still retained a warm
affectionate remembrance of his boy
hood home and the friends he had
there known.
1t was his kind gift which enabled
US to fairly commence our Library
work and though it may be but a
small, very small token of grateful
remembrance to him, may we not
trust that the people of Bel Air and
vicinity will assist us to continue it p?
The picture is hung in the Library
Room and we will be most glad if
any and all of our friends will come
to see it. The room will be open

One thing, however, thai is surprising
ly strange, is how can the Executive
heads both of the State and County
Boards resist the cunning snares
that are so temptingly set by this
shrewd little fellow. Perhaps it re-
quires more time to capture those
who have their minds engrossed with
weighty matters, so we all will await
and see what changes will take
place in 1902.
The present scholastic year opens
with promising prospects. Harford's
schools have set high standard for
the rest of the State, but there is al
ways room for Improvement. As
other counties follow in our progress
sive steps, we should reach out so as
to remain the advance guard. The
world is constantly on the go and
education is largely responsible for
the rapid advance of civilization.
AS the world becomes enlightened in
dividual happiness is better assured
and personal liberty the more secure.
So let US one and all, do what we
can to welcome the teachers and
make them feel that we hold a
proper regard for their noble calling,
They are giving their best days fol-
the sake of posterity and should re.
ceive every encouragement from those
who are either directly or indirectly
reaping the benefit.
