GIVE VOTE OF THANKS.

A vote Of thanks was accorded Gus
Harders and George Berger for calling the
convention to order. They were the head
and front Of the county committee, which
was bitterly opposed to Mayor Schmitz
before the primary election. Both men
thanked the delegates for their kindly act
and were applauded. This means that the
hatchet has been buried and Schmitz will
receive the support Of both factions of the
Labor party.
A recess was taken in order to give the
various committees an opportunity to or
ganize. Upon reconvening the committees
made their reports. The credentials COM
mittee announced that the certified list
Of the Registrar was accepted as the roll
Of the convention. The report was
adopted.
The committee on organization reported
progress, as did also the committee on
platform and resolutions. They will meet
to-day and file a complete report tonight.
An adjournment was taken until to-
night.

Concerning Bad Spelling.

The superintendent Of the Philadel-
phia schools agrees with the professor
Of the Michigan university that spell
ers, like poets, are born and not made.
He also agrees that a large majority
of these favored individuals are wo-
men. This will be gratifying to the
Michigan professor, if not to the gen
eral public. For our leading educators
to sit back and complacentIy admit
that to be a speller one must be born
with the spelling instinct is not at all
reassuring. A good many plain peo-
pie still cling to the old-fashioned the
DRY that a knowledge of this important
branch Of education can be produced
and improved upon by a judiciOus
course Of study. and they sorely dep
recate any system that pushes spell
ing aside to make room for the new
frill5 and fads that too often crowd the
knowledge seekers pathway.
If it is really susceptible Of proof
as the pundits claim-that spoilers are
born and not made, small army of
employers will be disposed to regard
with wondering sadness the fact that

Indigestion, congested liver, impure
blood constipation, these are what atflict
thousands of people who do not know
what is the matter with them. They
drag along a miserable existence; they
apply to the local doctors occasionally,
and sometimes obtain a little temporary
relief, but the old, tired, worn-out, all
gone, distressed feeling always comes
back again worse than ever, until in time
they become tired of living, wonder why
they were ever born, and why they are
alive unless to endure constant suffering.
To such sufferers there is a haven of
refuge in DR.. August Koenig's Hamburg
Drops, which was discovered more than
80 years ago, and which is a wonderful
medicine. One trial will convince the
most skeptical that any or all of these
difficulties may be removed, and perfect
cure effected, by taking DR.. August Koe-
nig's Hamburg Drops. Get bottle at
once, before it is too late.

CHAPTER Nv.

Mr.. Mead was in his private office when
a visitor was announced. He was seated
in front of a handsome writing desk,
made of native varied woods, whose beau
ty was preserved and heightened With
oil and polish, and was in the act of
opening a letter when his visitor entered.
"Ah! see you are prompt, Mr.. Gripp."
"Punctuality is the soul-you know the
rest. Mr.. Mead. / have brought papers
with me which will enable you to under
stand at a glance what l have to offer
you"
Mr. Mead waved his hand, and con-
tinued opening his letters, as he said
by and by-when we are ready for
that Let us understand what is propos-
ed first"
Eighty per cent of labor is saved, to
begin WITH and more than that much in
time is saved by the process | spoke Of,
and the result is an iron equaling, if not
superior to, the article you are now sell

"You seem confident. For a sure-foot-
ed man, Mr.. Grip, you are almost en-
thusiastic."
"If am, have an excuse-or, rather,
the facts warrant the positive statements
l have made. l come to offer you such
inducements as will justify you in assum-
ing the direction of new mill for the
new process"
AS Mr.. Grip carefully removed the
wrapper from thick roll a clerk stood
in the doorway.
"A lady, Mr.. Mead, wishes to see you"
81 will see her soon"
| Mr.. Gripp had almost removed the
wrapping paper. He now turned to Mr.
Mead again.
These drawings are so clear, the ex-
plantations so simple, that single glance
must suffice to demonstrate to man like
you the extraordinary value of the pro-
cess"
Mr.. Mead rose bent over the roll as
Mr.. Grip laid the paper aside, and both
looked at the drawings as they were UNI
rolled, eNpectantly.
Suddenly Mr.. Grips nose and lirs
curled; the sneer in his face was intcnsi-
fed as he crushed the drawings ruthless.

81 see now how the mistake was made"
Again the clerk entered.
"A gentleman to see you who cannot

"Show him in"
The door opened, and a quiet parsonage
entered. He looked like a man who
would submit to anything for peace.

Pure violet essence is said to be espe.
cially suitable to nervous people, but it
must be obtained from the flowers
themselves, not from the chemical imi-
tations. Chemically derived perfumes
are irritant poisonous even, to persons
Of especially sensitive constitution.
True flower scents are obtained in three
ways-frst by spreading fresh bios
SONS upon glass thickly smeared with
pure grease, letting them stand in the
sun, and as they wilt replacing them
until the grease is as fragrant as the
flowers; second, by repeatedly infusing
fresh petals in oil; and third, by infus-
ing them in ether which is then dis
titled to dry solid, reports the Pic
torial Magazine.
AS this solid sells for about $500 an
ounce, it Is easy to understand why the
ether process though far away the best,
Is not commonly used. But the scented
grease and the essences made by steep
ing 1t in pure spirit are never cheap.
After all the scent possible has been eX-
tracted from the grease it is still fra
grant enough to make the very finest
perfumed soap. All the citrine scents,
| bergamot, nerOl, orange flower water,
are refreshing and in a degree stimulat-
ing If properly prepared. To make a
lasting perfume some animal base is
essential-musk, civet or ambergris.
