OF ELECTION.
THE PEOPLES TICKET, WITH ONE
EXCEPTION ELECTED.
A Large Vote Cast. Results of the
Election in Neighboring Towns.

The election Tuesday will GO
down in the history of the town
as one of the most orderly as we'll
as one Of the most holly contest
ed elections held here in several
years. Although nearly 200 men
came in during the forenoon from
Conover, Hackley and State Line,
still perfect order prevailed and
comparatively few DRINKS were
seen. The fight was conducted
in perfect harmony, and nothwith-
standing the fact that some fifty
or sixty voters were challenged,
no personalities were INDUCED in
by either side. The contest
seemed to be conducted purely
on the merits Of the different can
didateS alone.
At the opening Of the polls in
the moring resolution was intro
duced asking for an. adjournment
Of one week of the town meeting
which is usually held at one
o clock on election day. The res
olution was unanimously adopted
This we believe was good move.
as it will give everyone interested
in the town expenditures an OPP
portunity to talk over the matter
of town appropriations and the
present status of the town.
There were two distinct tick cts
in the field besides the innumera-
BILE split tickets. The Peoples
ticket. with Bradford for chair
man, Hall and Roderick for sup
ervisors and Wilds and Tellefson
for assessors, constituted the OPP
position to the caucus ticket.
Veteran politicians who have
fought many conflict at the bal
lot boxes watched the voting
through the forenoon and gave as
their opinion that the majority for
the head Of the ticket would be
close and uncertain and even sew
eral supporters of the opposing
candidate predicted that the eau
Gus nominee, Mart Hirzel, would
be elected small margin. Brad
ford's majority of ID came as a
complete surprise to everybody,
although there were few who
had placed his majority as high as
100. Below we give the vote as
shown by the canvas and also the
candidates as elected:

Scientists have recently been meas
wiring the dimensions Of the clouds.
and have arrived at some rather
startling conclusions. The dimensions
ef single clouds. as far As the area
covered BY their base is concerned,
vary. As anyone can see. from tho
cloud the size of q mans hand to that
which covers the entire visible hesv-
ems; but the height of clouds can be
observed more definitely and can be
estimated with convincing accuracy,
and It 10 this height that largely de-
tarmines their contents and charac.
tsristics.
A great, cunulous thunderhead,
towering up on the horizon Ike a
huge. hamboyant iceberg. is often
higher than the highest Alps would
bs II they were piled on top of the
Himalayas. 1t is not unusual for
these clouds to measure ave. six or
even eight miles from their nat, dark
base. lowering a mile or two above
the world. to their rounded, glisten-
Tag summit, splendid In the sunlight
And in these eight miles the changes
Of temperature are as great as those
over many thousand miles of the
sarth's surface.
These clouds contain strata of tenn
perature. narrow belts of freezing
cold alternating with large distances
Of rainy mist and frozen snow and
Ice particles. Hailstones, which are
formed from . snow particle that falls
from the upper strata and Is frozen
hard In the freezing belt and coated
with added ice in the wet belt. are
often found with series of layers in
their formation, showing that they
have passed through this succession
Of cloud strata more than once on
their way from the upper air to the
earth.

Errors in Diet.

DR.. Robert Hutchinson, in a recent
lecture at the London Institute, called
attention to some of the errors in the
national diet His criticisms and rec
concentrations will apply equally well
to America. He says: 1--WE none Of
us seem to eat quite the right things,
at any rate not for the right reasons
The great mistake is that we are led
away by mere flavor. American cheese,
at sixpence pound, is dietetical,y as
good as Stiiton at one shilling and
fourpence. The bloater yields rather
more nutriment than the sole or the
salmon. Margarine is quite as nOur-
ishing and as digestible as butter
Comparing the values Of different arti-
cles Of diet DR.. Hutchinson said that
vegetable foods were, on the whole, not
so easily digested as animal foods. 1t
would be great mistake for a town
population to live entirely on the for
mer, even if town digestions were bet
ter than they are. At the same time
he thought we could all with advant-
age eat more of the pulses, such as
peas beans and lentils. Dietetic sal
vation, he said, was not to be found
in brown bread. On paper brown
bread was superior to white, but the
whole Of it was not absorbed mo, be-
lieve me-" said the lecturer, "the in
stinct for white bread is a sound in
stinct." AS to oatmeal, it was rich
in building material, and in fact, in
iron and in phosphates. 1t was non
sense to say that oatmeal was the
cause Of appendicitis and other evils
If it were, the Scotch nation would
have persisted centuries ago.

To where they have room, for we have

So spake the holy man of God
Of another man, his brother,
Whose cold remains, ere they sought the

Had only asked that Christian rite
Might be read above them by one whose

Was, Brethren, love one another
Had only asked that prayer be read
Ere his flesh went down to join the dead.
Whilst his spirit looked with suppliant
eyes,
Searching for God throughout the skies.
But teh priest frowned mo-" and his
brow was bare
OF love in the sight of the mourner,
And they looked for Christ and found
Him-where?
In that little church round the corner!
All, well! God grant, when, with aching
feet,
We tread life's last few PAGES,
That we may hear some accents sweet,
And kiss, to the end, fond faces!
God grant that this tired flesh may rest,

But i'll some small nook where God's
