Both parties claim to have carried
Colorado, and all agree that the race be-
tween Judge Campell (Rep.) and Adalr
Wilson DEM for Supreme Court JUS
tice is very close. There was but one
office to be filled at the election, and as
that is judicial the result had little bear

was Peabody (Rep.) 85,5l2; Stimson

After the most bitter campaign In
the history of New York city George B.
Mcclellan was elected mayor of greater
New York with aplurality of over 70, OOC
votes. This is all the more remarkable
in 80 far as Mcclellan carried every
single district with the exception OF
Richmond which Low carried with about
800. Mayor Low claimed all the credit
for the clean administration In New
York during the past two years. The
most conservative people, however, give
Comptroller Grout credit for it and he
teing ON the democratic ticket no reason
for voting for Low was left. Even
Brooklyn gave Mcclellan majority
The gain this year gives Tammany an
immense power and assures much
greater plurality two years from now il
the power is used with reason. Leaving
all partisan ideas aside chances are that
New York will have better administra
ton than ever before and so help roll uE
a large democratic majority for presi
dent.

Chicago Milk Trade.

A report of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture says that
Chicago uses daily 69,465 gallons Of
milk. There are 1929 firms engaged
in selling milk. Over 115, 900 quarts Of
bottled milk come into the city each
day. but only two companies fill all
ct their bottles in the country There
are 80 dairy herds inside the city I'm.
its, which have an aggregate of 420
COWS. There are 1880 COWS kept pri-
vately. These city COWS produce daily
$500 gallons of milk. There are 1000
dairy farms outside of Chicago that
send milk to the city, and most of the
milk goes in over 16 railroads. The
railroad charge is from to % cents
per can. The largest haul is 142 miles,
but most of the milk comes from
territory within 100 miles of the city.
This milk producing territory includes
Southern Wisconsin, Northern Illinois
and Northern Indiana. There is no
uniform charge among the railroads
for hauling milk, but each road has a
tariff of its own.

To Postpone Old Age

ancestors immediate and remote,
who suffered from heritable diseases.
Others. more mysterious, are per-
haps the instruments of sort of es-
sential disease, of that old age which
precociously kills all who do not die
still earlier of tuberculosis, pneumo-
mia, the bubonic plague or Group. I'm
til we know more we can only reform
our diet. eating little meat or none
and subsisting chiefly on butter
cheese and sour milk. By these i'm
perfect means we may prolong life a
little-200 years or SO. Up to 80, for
example, we may be as active as the
president of the United States, and
thereafter, for 100 years more, as re-
Elective as the prime minister of Eng
land. This would still leave us half
a century for art, philanthropy, poker
or croquet. But when death does fina-
ally draw near will not it's approach
be as distasteful as ever? BY no
means, says the doctor. Under pres
ent conditions death is like an unnat-
ural sleep, which overtakes US early
in the day-say before dinner. In the
future it will come after full meal,
when the days work is done.-Coll.

Nobody ever dies a natural death.
Old age, the premature old age, which
is the only kind we know, is patho-
logical condition. Such are" the opin-
ions of DR.. Ellie Metchnikoff, not a
fakir, but a serious person, who stud
les things through a microscope at
the Pasteur institute. Each .of us
swarms with tiny beasts of prey
which travel up and down our bodies,
seeking what they may devour. By
attacking our benefcient cells. pre-
viously weakened by the unwise life
we all lead, they produce an artificial
senility, the malady which kills those
men whom in our ignorance we call
very old.
Looked at from DR.. Metchnikoff's S
standpoint, old age is merely a prob
lem for medical science. How shall
we help our beneficient cells in their
struggle against the enemy? One way
would be to take every baby and cut
out his larger intestine, an organ
which ought not to have been includ-
ed in our anatomy. At present this
lcannot be done, as the operation is
risky. A second method would be to
destroy the beasts of prey But we

One Command He Needed

In my day and generation l have
been accused of having broken nearly
all the Ten Commandments with
perfect truth. To begin with, l have
blood guiltiness on my soul. Saul has
slain his thousands, but l have slain
my tens of thousands. But it was in
Jersey-and my windows were un-
screened, so there were extenuating
circumstances
II have bowed down to a craven
image. The image was that of my
sainted wife.
"'Is that you, George?'
YES
What time is it?'
"'Plenty minutes after eleven!' l
murmured.
"A church clock nearby slowly
chimed three-then the bowling to the
image began, as I carefully lodged
the shoes.
Il have borne false witness with a
childlike simplicity that would have
brought tears to your eyes when my
companion on life's journey has asked
me in a moment of tenderness wheth-
er l ever regretted having married
her.

thing I know--that whereas may

have broken nine of the Command
ments, the tenth one I have preserved
inviolate. 1t has always seemed such
a foolish thing for a man to break
this one of the group. Why covet an
OK? Nothing short of pair of them
would do any good, and then only if
you have ranch.
why covet a jackass? There's no
style about them. Their ears are too
long. Besides, given a fair chance,
you can nearly always make one of
yourself, and then the coveting's
wasted.
'fLastly-what sane man would
covet his neighbor's. wife? Kind
heaven! Would he want two, for
whom he would have to- match sam
pies? Two who would wait up for
him and insist on knowing why he
wore his cravat as a Shoulder knot?
Two who would bringath mothers
to live with them? No, indeed. It's
a very foolish thing to covet. I once
knew fellow who coveted, though
drew four kings and he coveted them I
would have given him some, but there
were no more in the deck-sO l think
he ought to have been ashamed Of
breaking one of the Commandments.

The "Oryinq-up" Mixer.

It is one of the oldest traditions on
our farms that when a COW is to be
dried up she should be placed in the
hands of some person just learning to
milk. That person will milk so slow.
ly and imperfectly that the COW will
dry up in few weeks unless she have
the perpetual milking propensity
Every farmer knows that there are
persons that never can become good
mixers, no matter how long they may
be in the business. They are and al.
ways will be slow mixers. Perhaps
it would be best if these persons could
be relieved of the work of milking al.
together and given other work They
are rather "drying-up mixers" at best
But generally the farmer or dairyman
is in such great need of mixers that
he will take anything that can pull
a teat. The quick, clean, gentle mixer
is always at a premium.

GermicidaI Constituents of Milk.

GermicidaI Constituents of Milk.
Intimately associated with the germ
content of milk are the germicidal
constituents, for one depends upon the
other for it's manifestations, says Pro-
fessor Chas. E. Marshall of Michigan.
Considerable study and attention have
been given to these substances as they
body secretions Of late years, mas
much as they are associated with sus-
ceptibility to and immunity against
disease. 1t is therefore natural that
we should find these agents existing
in the milk and attribute to them their
proper significance. That they exist
can be easily shown by simply ascer-
tanning the number Of bacteria in the
milk at the time of milking and each
hour afterward for about twelve
hours. 1t will be found that the num-
ber we find at first will be gradually
diminished for few hours, when
there will be gradual increase until
a certain point is reached at which the
increase becomes exceedingly rapid
1t may, perhaps, appear peculiar
that we should find bacteria in the
milk while these germicidal constitu-
ents are present. 1t should be under
stood that germicidal constituents in
the secretions of the body or in the
body tissues do not necessarily act in
the same way upon all kinds Of bac-
terra. 1t might be, therefore, that the
small number Of bacteria which exist
in the udder are not necessarily at
tackled by these germicidal constitu-
ents or that the bacteria do not in
crease and are only held in check, or
1t may be possible that the germicidal
constituents are, many times so small
in quantity that there is no appreci-
able action upon the bacteria. 1t is
true that these germicidal agents vary
in their intensities.

Her Three Good Things

Nothing keeps me alive but the
three RS" said bright literary wom-
an lately. II don't mean the three
which are usually referred to-'read-
in, 'ritin', and 'rithmetic,' but these
three-reading, resting and rummag-
ing. And l almost said the greatest of
these is rummaging
BY reading I do not mean galloping
through the latest books. in order to
review them, or because other peo-
pie will think me an antediluvian if
say l haven't read lnem. BY reading,
l mean holding some pet book, patting
it's covers with loving touch, look
ing at it, or perhaps browsing over it..
but absorbing it through more chan
nels than the brain. The Essays of
Ella is one Of the books which I like
to read in this fashion.
BY resting, l mean throwing my
SELF boots and brains, upon a certain
broad, low couch. with faded Bogdad
cover and divers pillows of various
shapes and sizes. After a half hour
spent there the cobwebs leave my
brain and all life's tangles become un-
raveled. Another method of resting
wnen the need is not so great is to sit
in broad, high-backed Shaker rock
ing chair, and swing with a certain
rhythm, which seems to belong to the
chair, and which suits me perfectly.

Fine Art Of Cooking

visit to the kitchen of one of the
cheap restaurants, say to one of the
plain American variety as sample,
discloses how much the everyday
Yankee restaurant cook can bring out
OF little, says the New York Sun. A
look at the bill-ef fare before pene*
trating into the realm Oi the necr6E
mancer who juggles with the edibles
in the rear will increase the wonder.
There are listed four or five different
kinds of soup, as many perhaps, of
fish, half dozen roasts, an ample ar
ray of made dishes, pies and puddings,
and all the vegetables. canned or
fresh, in ordinary use anywhere.
Anyone who did not know might
suppose that to cook and keep ready
I'm quantities such an array of dishes
would require an immense range, sew
eral cooks, and plenty of space. In
reality the kitchen is no bigger, or, is
even smaller, than that of an ordinary
house, and one or at most two assist
ants to wash dishes are all the one
plain Yankee cook requires
Suppose a waiter comes with an or
der for vegetable soup. The cook
lifts the lid of big boiler of clear
soup, made by boiling bones and
scraps of beef: mutton, chicken and
veal together. Out of this he dips a
bowl of soup. and into the bowl he
pops in quick succession a little from
each pot of boiled vegetables he is
serving for that day. He gives it all
q stir, and, presto! there is your vege-
table soup.
For all the orders for soup that
come in the cook goes first to the big
boiler. Is it consomme? From a big
pitcher the cook pours into the clear
stock some brown thickening fluid.
Is it maccaroni? A pot of boiling
water is near at hand, and he forks a
few strings into the bowl. Is it oxtail? ?
