 When we make clothes for you, they are exact-they fit. There Isn't any Just about right to them-they are right No seams that pull up, no cross pulling DOT tions. no danger but that they'll hold the shape and fit to the last thread, and look we'll for years.
 This looks consoling, If rather grue- some It has not been customary for undertakers to promise to make clothes for their subjects that will hold their shape and fit and look well for years It looked as If one too enterprising funeral director had decided upon an astonishing innovation. But the novel advertisement was in reality two adver- tisements the lower one being that of tailor. who was probably surprised when he saw his earnest bid for custom ap- bearing as the startling guarantee of an undertaken.
 Little accidental slips in the compos- ing room of a newspaper office often bring queer results. but 1t is seldom that an undertaken has been made to appear. frivolous in his business announcement. A division rule between adjoining ad- vertisements is often as important as a semicolon in a Massachusetts liquor law.

Looking for Greater University.

There Is every reason to believe that the interests of the state and the medical profession alike would be well served, if the board of trustees, while making Greater University plans, would provide for instruction at Tuscaloosa in certain branches of learning, pertaining to the science of medicine, and, further, arrange it so that our medical department at Mo- bile shall give full credit for work done at the university proper said an alumnus of the State university.
 There is no apparent good reason why, if this plan were adopted, a young man desiring the B. s. degree might not, by four years attendance at Tuscaloosa, legltimately secure this valuable asset, and by having part of his training con- sist of work along the lines of his future profession, put himself in a position to finish at Mobile in two years, taking there his M. D. degree. The course could be arranged by the Tuscaloosa and Mo bile faculties so as to cover the first two years work in the regular medical de- partment.
 The method suggested Is exactly that of Cornell, and identical with what Tulane proposes to do in the immediate future.
 "one great advantage of such plan lies in the fact that many young fellows not yet perfectly prepared for the study of medicine and dentistry would take ad- vantage of such an opportunity where 1t is afforded, instead of rushing headlong into technical study. with the result that standards would be raised.
 Again, from the standpoint of the stu dent, it would be a great advantage that two full years would be saved. Nor would the plan work to the hurt of the regular medical department, for the lase two years of the course would be logical ly taken at Mobile"

w, r, C.. Convention.

Dodgeville Chronicle: The Woman's S
Relief Corps Convention and Inspec-
ton, which was held in the w. r. c..
hall in this city last Friday, was a
success in every detail.
Mrs. Williams, department inspec-
tor for the sixth district, spoke in
glowing terms of the excellent work
done in southwestern Wisconsin.
The inspection included Platteville,
Mineral Point and Dodgeville and was
we'll represented from each place.
Splendid programs were carried out,
consisting of speeches, recitations,
etc., and special music was provided
for the occasion.
The members were bauqueted at the
Hotel Grand and everything was done
to entertain the visitors, who in return
spoke very highly of Dodgevilleites
as entertainers.
A pleasant feature was the presenta-
tion of a portrait of William William
son to the Post and Corps by his sis
ter, Mrs. Peterson. The Post and
Corps were named in honor of Mr..
Williamson.

St. MarY'S.

Sunday evening at seven O'Clock
there was a solemn closing Of the
mems mission. At $50 O'Clock all
the men of the parish assembled at
the school hall, and marched in pro-
cession from there to the church.
Each had lighted candle, and the
sight of such large body of men in
lire was most edifying and impress
sive. From 25O to 3OC men took part
in the procession. The pews on both
sides of the middle aisle were reserved
for the men. The church was crowded
with the faithful. After the closing
sermon the men solemnly renewed their
baptisimals VOWS. Those who wit
messed this solemn act will never
forget it. The ceremony closed with
the singing of the "Te Deum lauda-
mus" by the entire congregation.

TUESDAYS ELECTIONS
Were Generally Decided on State
or Local Issues.
SOME GOOD RESULTS
Fusion Defeated in New York, and
Graft Rebuked in San
Francisco.
THE OUTCOME.

The news from the elections of Tues
day is published on page 4 of the
Democrat. This is decidedly an off
year and the contests were chiefly
state and local. and lacked great
national interest. The Milwaukee
Journal sums up the general result as
follows:
The Roosevelt administration has
little reason to feel dissatisfied with
the results of the state and local elec-
ttOns yesterday. If anything, the ad-
ministration is the gamer; certainly
it has sustained no loss. New Jersey
appears to have returned to the Dem
ocrats, but Kentucky elected the entire
Republican ticket. Taking the situa-
ton as whole, it may be said that
the administration came out better
than it had any right or reason to ex-
pect.
Particular interest will attach to the
result in Kentucky. That state is
naturally Democratic, of course, but
the Republicans are strong and Occa-
siOnally are able to win victory.
Local conditions undoubtedly had a
great deal to do with the result yester-
day, but for all that the election had
its national connections. Two of the
country's leading men spoke in the
interests of the respective parties, Mr..
Taft for the Republicans and Mr..
Bryan for the Democrats.
In Massachusetts, the split in the
Democratic party made Republican
success almost certain. 1t may be
said, though, that the outcome is not
disastrous for the Democrats. They
have made q start toward redeeming
their party and they ought to be in
fair condition for the next campaign.
The Democrats carried Maryland and
Rhode Island as was expected. These
victories and the victory in New Jer-
sey show that the Democratic party is
getting itself into fighting condition.
1t bids fair to give a better account OF
itself next year than many people sup
pose.
The elections in New York, Cleve
land, Cincinnati and San Francisco,
of course, turned on local questions.
Fusion in New York proved boom
erang. There is no surprise that Tom
Johnson won in Cleveland. The re-
suit of this election has no particular
significance nationally so far as the
Republicans are concerned. The at
tempt to inject national questions into
the campaign failed. With the Demo
Gratis, however, it is different. Tom
Johnson is to-day bigger man ma
tionally than he has ever been before.
He is a man of power and resource
and may have marked influence up
on the fortunes of the party in the
presidential campaign next year.
San Francisco seems to have stood
Loyalty by her reform administrators,
a fact in which the whole nation will
take pride,
The elections yesterday were inter-
esting in many ways. A warning,
however, is in order against attaching
too much significance to them in the
matter of national politics. Each
community had it's own local ques-
tiOns to settle and it settled them. in
it's own way.

out the Double Butte vote entirely the rest of the districts voted as follows:
 Heard, no vote; Rohrig. no vote; Ru ral, yes. l no; Kyrene, 3 yes, no. This added to the town of S7 yes and 5 no. makes d total of 9I yes and no. With a majority that great. it makes little difference which way the Double Butte district went for the proposi-
 ton was carried easily. It may be said in explanation of the negative vote in the Kyrene district that the reason the residents of it do not look with favor upon the idea is that the Kyrene school is so far from town, whereas the others with the exception of the Heard school are within three miles. From the absence of votes in the last named district, it is evident that the residents of it did not take a great deal of interest in the matter and car
 ed little which way the election went.
