left on coffee and began the use of

gradually improved in health until for
the past 6 or months l have been

1t may surprise good many of the
younger American citizens to learn
that there was a Davis and Parker
presidential ticket in this country thir-
ty-two years before the present re-
verse combination appeared. In 1872
David Davis of Illinois was nominated
for president by what was called the
Labor Reform party, which held its
convention in Columbus, o. His rum
ming mate was Governor Joel Parker,
of Connecticut. That was the year
when the Democratic national conven-
ton chose as its, presidential condi-
date Horace Greeley.
