 That shiver,' said her companion, a physician. lis natures method of warn ing you. It is natures preventive reme- dy for a cold.
 You see, the shiver is an involuntary rhythmical contraction of the muscles and there is nothing like a contraction of the muscles for raising the temperature of the body.
 Thus. when you shiver, nature is put ting you through a little course of exer- else to warm you up, so that you won't take cold or a dose of rheumatism, or an attack of pneumonia.

Maxine Elliott.

The widespread popularity of Miss Max inc Elliott is being more emphaticaly established this season than ever before. This talented star, who is appearing in the Clyde Fitch comedy, Her Great Match" is this year visiting many cities in which she has not been seen before, and everywhere the reception accorded her has showed the universal favoritism in which she is held by the American the atre-going public. This is Miss Elliott fourth season as an individual star, and she is exceedingly fortunate in having for a play one of the most pretentious Fitch efforts Not only does Her Great Match'' present Miss Elliott to excellent advan- tage,- but 1t also shows some of the best characterizations yet placed to MT. Fitch's credit. Miss Elliott will be seen al the Jefferson theatre on Friday night.

 The play itself will prove interesting, and the battle scene where a real Calling gun Is introduced, firing hot shot into the rebel lines. is one of the best yet pro- duced on the stage. The dock scene, show ing the departure of the transport City of Pelxln," bound for the Philippines, is also str1kingly realistic.

 Meet This Week KORAN OUT FOR ALDERMAN We'll Known South Side Merchant Will Oppose Harry Jones in Eighth
 Ward-other Candidates
 for Honors.
KORAN OUT FOR ALDERMAN

The meeting of the city democratic ex- ecutiye committee for the purpose of ar ranging a plan for the municipal primary VIII be called this week for some early date. It is probable that the meeting will be held next week.
 Chairman Metcalf made a statement to this effect last night
 The primary will of necessity be late this year. It will probably be held in March. There will be strong effort made to place the names of aspirants for the heads of the several departments of the municipal government on the ticket, matter which was voted on at the last election and carried by a majority of votes.
 'The committee will put the names on the ticket" said Chairman Metcalf last night. It is my opinion that the commit tee has no other alternative. The people have demanded it."
 If the candidates for city offices are placed on the ticket the document will be quite a lengthy one. The people will nominate Mayor, a city attorney, a chief of police, chief of the fire department, an auditor, a tax collector, an engineer, a treasurer and the members of the new executive committee. The assistant city attorney and the clerk will be the only members of the city's official family who will not be nominated directly by the peo- pie.
 New Man Announces.
 In addition to the above all the alder wi ha fights are promised in nominating these ward representatives. A new candidate was announced last night. Dan A. Hogan. the well known merchant, aspires to rep resent the Eighth ward. He will oppose Harry Jones, who has been a member of the board for a long number of years. MT Hogan is very popular, and will make a stiff fight against the incumbent.
 Candidates in Field.
 In the First ward, John Burke, John Wright, John Horan and M. W. Parsons are the probable candidates. Alderman Wheeler, as has been published, will not stand for reelection. A. A. Gambill, Rich ard Eggleston and John Oden are the probable candidates in the Third.
 It is reported that Walter Moore will have opposition in the Fourth in the per- son of Robert Howard. In the Fifth, Dr. Wyatt Heflin is seriously considering making the race against Alderman Coop CT. Alderman Heidt of the Seventh will probably have opposition in the persons of Vassar Allen, w. B. Grant, L. N. Archer and others. In the eighth, Alderman Jones will be opposed by MT. Hogan, as stated. In the Ninth, Alderman simms will have opposition in the persons of George H. Estes and Robert Murphy. Alderman ONeill In the Second and Alderman For ney in the Sixth are not opposed at this time.
 As known, there will be a hot fight made for chief of police. Chief Wier, Detec- tive Bodeller, c. ". Austin, J. B. Morson and L. H. Perlkerson being candidates. In addition to these. the ticket will con tain space for the votes on the proposi- tion of issuing bonds for the acquisition and control of a water works plant.

well that he was not dangerous. held his ground
bouncing up and down on the stump in vociferous
excitement. When the Kid was within three feet
OF him. he gave wild " k-r-r-r-rl" of derison and
sprang to another stump. With eyes dancing and
