Life a
Burden

There are times when life
seems a burden-when you are
tired, WORKOUT, have dull pains
in the head and a continual
feeling of uneasincss. You
have no appetite, and your di-
gestion is poor; your sleep
broken, and you get no rest.
Little annoyances seem great
mountains of trouble, and you
are blue, melancholy and given
over to gloomy forebodings.
This means low vitality-ex-
hausted brain nerves.

The city council last night ratified
the action of the finance committee
in appointing Omer Wheelan deputy
to the city clerk and city treasurer.
The fact that the affair caused a
controversy is to be deplored. Since
council referred the matter to the
finance committee for action. the
only thing left for council to do
was to accept the report Of that COM
mittee. Mr.. Taggart felt as if he
should be granted the privilege of
naming the man who would be his
deputy, and to a certain extent, he
was right in this. But a precedent
had been established by the council
good many years ago and it was
this precedent that the finance com
mittee adhered to. The law on the
appointment of a deputy to the clerk
and treasurer is very explicit. Tt
says that clerks have right to name
deputies, but such appointment must
be approved by council It seems.
according to the law, as if the result
would be about the same Tn any
event the clerk or treasurer would
have to name a man that would be
agreeable 10 council. The only real
charge made against Clerk Taggart's
man was that he was a Democrat.

The Dancing Class

Prof. Mechanics class met at the
opera house last Saturday evening and
not only acquired some new steps in
the art OF dancing but spent about three
and a half hours in social dance after
the class work was over. A large part
of the pleasure of dancing is good
music. Indeed, without good music
and proper time it is somewhat flat-a
good deal like a biscuit when the salt
has been left out. Bad time gives one
a creepy, indescribably, disagreeable
feeling that cannot well be described In
words
The professors orchestra is not open
to this criticism.

OF motion and perfect your dancing ac-
mplshment join the class tomorrow

Each number was enthusiast cally en-
cored and the concert was, on the
whole. a good one. Miss Shepard 5
work, especially on her dramatic selec'
tions, was thoroughly good. Her rem
dition of "CavatinaN from Goldmark s
masterful "Queen of Sheba." which is
strong dramatic selection, vibrant
with passion, was her best number on
the program. She showed consider
able ability with the sentimental in
Nevin's charming little lullaby,
mighty LAX a Rose, " one OF Madam
Nordica's most popular encores.
This is the first of series of recitals
which Miss Shepard will give during
