BARTLETT'S RECORD A
CLEAN AND OPEN ONE
What He Has Done and Why
He Should Be Supported For
His Reelection

The denomination of George A. Bart
lett for Congress is q fitting coroiiary 10
the declared principles OF the DEM
ocratic Party.
George A. Bartlett is not only a
sincere and honest man, but he is Ike
wise q manly, Straightforward man
doing what he believes is just and right
in accord with the common interest oil
his fellow citizens. His nomination
was in accord with the great common
sense of the State.
In every essential respect his record
in Congress is good. high class, straight
forward and absolutely in the interest
of the people in behalf of legislation
that was considered where the welfare
Of the workers and business ends were
involved.
His great support Of measures and
Official position, Of measures and means
that brought peace to Nevada and es.
tablished security for all Interests.
laborers, miners and business enter
prises, was in accord with common
and the progressive requirements
of the normal and orderly development
Of the great q of Nevada.
Whenever, under a misguided idea, q
body of individuals attempts to do that
which is contrary to the civil law.
which fixes the relationships of citizen
to citizen. they do that which is folly
and bring about ruin for themselves as
well as general chaos. At all times
during his official and public career,
George Bartlett has stood for the just en-
forcement Of law and a square deal for
every right and interest within the
State and Nation.
The mine workers of Nevada W the
presentation Of this right as much to
Bartlett as to any other man in the
State.
Even Republican opposition to George
Bartlett is thonghtless. He is entitled
to the full and undivided support OF
Nevada. With honest men. he COM
mands this support. As an able, fear.
less public man. he is worthy of this
united support. On his record as a
member of Congress. without flaw or
fault. and as the popular representative
of the State. with an able, influential
and successful record in accomplishing
salutary legislation for the benefit Of
the miners and mining and agricul-
tural interests of the West he is worthy
Of the greatest vote that was ever re-
corded for q candidate in Nevada.
We are for Bartlett because we recog-
nizs him as a manly, honest man, one
of sincere conviction, ever daring to do
what he believes Is his duty in the
rightful sense to do.
Human affairs advance by gradual
transitions. and the course that George
Bartlett has pursued is in accord and in
line with these human affairs. that the
best possible conditions may be attained
90 that all men may secure their just
due and rightful recognition as mar to
man. He deserves our underwriting
support, and shall have it to its full
He deserves election and 1t
is our estimate that Congressman Bart
lett will have a success bestowed at the
polls second to no other man in the
West.
Elect Bartlett and work for this and.

How to Cure an Oily Skin.

If your skin is inclined to be greasy you must take some care about your diet. Such things as rich soups, pastry and hot. highly seasoned dishes must be really left alone. Instead of using soap wash your face with oatmeal Just take little oatmeal in the palm of your hand, make it quite damp, and then rub it over your face as you would do soap. This oatmeal must be well rinsed off afterward, and when the face is quite dry bathe it with the following lotion: Sulphate of zinc, thirty grains; eau de cologne, one ounce; rosewater, two ounces. Use this twice a day. Stewed fruit of ali kinds are good for you, and last thing at night, also every morning, you should make it a practice to eat an apple.

How to Wash an Auto,

In washing an automobile use plenty of water. Two sponges should be used and two chamois skins. one set being used for the body and the other set for the chassis and running gear. since the chassis and running gear will always be more or less oily. and there b no excuse for getting oil on the body. When a car comes in at night covered with mud, under no circum- stances should this be allowed to re- main on overnight and harden. The car should be immediately run on the ,washstand and the mud softened by showering the car with cold water Do not attempt to rub the mud of, but allow 1t to be taken of gradually by the water.

How to Water Flower Beds.

If the soil is good stiff loam and you have frequent showers you do not need to supply any water. If your soil is Iandy and the weather dry it is benefi- eial to water every day. Geraniums )eldom need watering when growing tn good garden soil With much water they grow too much and flower sparse E. Cannas require rich soil and plenty If water. Coleus and plants of this Character do not require much water
 For them and geraniums we prefer, bays the Suburban Life, frequent hoe hg to watering. Careful watering is )he hardest thing to teach an inexperi- Snced hand both in the greenhouse and >n the lawn. If using hose, sprinkle tarefully, having just enough force to water without washing the ground. Hold the sprinkler near the ground lnd see that the water goes where you want it. h this way the ground will become thoroughly soaked. Never stand of and throw water at a flower bed Geraniums should not have the Bower heads watered if you can avoid It. as it spoils them completely. In the evening after sundown is the best time to supply water. as the plants have all night to take up the moisture, for wa ter is soon evaporated under the con- bined effects of wind and hot summer gun

HIS NINE cHEEsEs.
An Old Time New England Story of
 a Stingy Parson.

Stingy Parson. ! Anecdotes in which the mean and grasping man is outwitted or held up to ridicule are popular everywhere and always. Few ancient towns are with i out their historic or traditional in stances of stinginess punished or sharp practice defeated. In one village of New England. says the Youths Com, panion. there is still current such tale concerning an unpopular parson of i more than century ago.
 1 Although learned man of impress. i i've manners, this clergyman was noted for undue reluctance to expend and readiness to acquire. He had habit of pleading poverty and limiting for gifts.
 i The parish, although with some mur- muring, had responded with fuel for his kitchea. hay for his horse. Thanks giving turkeys for his table and a subscription cloak" of black satin for his wife when her wedding manteau | became shabby. The murmurs in-
 
 parson turned an honest but over shrewd penny by selling instead of using many of these donations. But they were not loud enough to disturb his stately calm. and he went his way without condescending to notice them. At last. however. fortune played him trick for trick.
 One pleasant winter day he made a round of calls. and at each house. when just about to leave. he casually asked his hostess if she could let him have little piece of cheese. as his wife happened to have none in the house and unexpected company had arrived. In each case the good house. wife. instead of little piece. generous ly presented him with q whole cheese, which he graciously accepted. As he turned from the door stone at the close of the last visit. while the mother of the family and her brood of nine chil- dren stood politely gathered to watch him drive away. he carelessly pulled the wrong rein, the sleigh tipped sharply on drift, and out from under the ministerial lap robe rolled nine large cheeses. which spun friskly away in all directions on the icy crust
 His hostess understood the situation at glance.
 Don't disturb yourself. pray. sir" she said politely as he made a motion to descend. Tt is quite unnecessary. The children will gather them up. and none will be overburdened or will there be any quarreling for the priv ilege. See; 1t is just cheese to a child"
 So 1t was, and the embarrassed par son. unable to escape. was obliged to receive back his cheeses. with due thanks to each giggling volunteer as they came up in gieeful procession one by one.
 Too we'll he knew that by the next day the whole parish would be laugh ing at his misadventure. although he could scarcely have guessed that the joke would be recalled a hundred years later.

Natures Cunning.

Protective mimicry, that cunning de- vice of nature to preserve animals from their enemies, is well known in the eggs of certain fishes, notably the California shark. known as Gyropleu- rodus francisci. The shark is of a sluggish habit. lurking among rocks. and its dark egg resembles a leaf of kelp or seaweed folded up spirally. It is deposited among the beds of kelp and clings to the leaves by the edges of the splrals. The young shark bursts open the end of the egg and swims away. Another sharks egg of the Pa cific coast has tentacles which clasp the seaweed and also initiate its appear ance.
