conclusion follows:
TT should be the unwritten law with
political parties in every district of Viz
ginia as it is in some districts OF this
and other States. that when q. competent
man is elected to Congress he should be
kent there as long as he discharges ms
duty and desires to hold the office. 1t IS
the observance of this rule that has
given to some States the advantage OF
representatives of national reputation
and commanding influence in the halls
of legislation at Washington. To that
rule which gives birth to and supports
the opposition now being made to Con-
gressmen Lamb, Maynard and Lasslter IS
due that fact that in point oe efficiency
the delegations OF some States COM
pared with those of others are but CT
pliers.

PEACE REALLY SIGHT
Pretoria Conference Adjourns to Give
Beers Time For Consideration.
THEY WILL ELECT DELEGATES
These Will Go Thoroughly Into the
Situation ana 1t Is Thought
Negotiations May be Re-
sumed In Three Weeks.

London, April 19.-The government
leader, A. J. Balfour, in the house of
commons made the following impor-
tant statement during the day:
After two conferences between Lord
Miner, the British high commissioner
of South Africa, and Lord Kitchener
and the Boer delegates at Pretoria,
Lord Kitchener, while refusing to grant
an armistice on military grounds, has
! agreed to give facilities for the cleo
ton and meeting of representatives of
the various Boer commands to consider
the position. The Boer leaders have
therefore left Pretoria to carry out this
plan"
pected that communication between the
British authorities and the Boer leaders
could be resumed in less than three
weeks time.
Statement Received FavOrably.
Balfours statement made general
ly favorable impression. 1t was ar
gued among the members of the house
of commons that the action of the Boer
leaders demonstrates that, at any rate.
a majority of the delegates favor the
acceptance of the suggested British
peace terms.
The submission Of the question to a
plebiscite of the burghers is according
to Boer law, which requires the leaders
of armed forces in the field to take the
opinion of their followers before CON
Guiding peace.
The lists of applications for the por-
ton of the new loan (f16.OOO, OOO). Of
fered to the public, have been closed
owing to the heavy 0versubscription
and the Inconvenience to the market
arising from locking up such large
amount of money.

FAT NERVES.

A whirl of excitement was
recently caused in the scien-

the mystery Of nerve action
has been solved.
1t is announced that healthy
nerves are fat nerves-and
that it is the fat in the core of
the nerve which is sensitive
and by hardening and soften
ing creates nerve action.
Maybe this explains why
SCOTS Emulsion has always
been such remarkable remedy
for nervousness.
SCOTS Emulsion feeds thin

Artistic Economy.
How 1t Grows, and How 1t Has Been
FOstered.

The great American public, while not 30 con.
sentative as the people of the old world. are at
times 10th to relnQuish old time methods to
which they have become thoroughly accustomed,
yet once they are convinced of the merits OF any
Innovation, particularly II the innovation turn
| to economy they adopt 1t with avidity. This
has been singularly illustrated in the matter OF
ready mixed paints for household and general
| purposes.
Time was when the only good paint was con-
sidered to be that which was mixed by hand
whenever needed, and the waste entailed In botn
material and labor was serious item-so mucn
SO as to seriously circmscribe the field OF paint
Ing and to confine 1t to the narrowest limits
possible.
To-day all that is changed-thanks largely to
the Conner Paint Mfg. Co., who, with their now
famous American Seal ready mixed paints have
reyolutonized the paint world and made 1t pos
sbe for everyone to easily beautfy and preserve
an hundred and one things, which before would
have either been neglected or turned over TO the
professional painter.
American Seal paints are made from the lnest
pigments and ground In absolutely pure Lnseed
OIL. They are specially prepared for every
kind of work on which paint can be used,
such as exterior interiors, roofs, floors, wagons,
carriages, farm implements, bridges, structural
ironwork enamel work. ETC., and are ready for
Instant use.
