STATE RETURNS.
Chairman Cook estimates that
the majority for Taft will be fully
$4,000, and that for Vessey about
$4,000. So far as learned Bryan
carried only two counties in the
state-Brule and Aurora.
Mr.. Cook also estimates that the
republicans will have lO8 of the
l49 members of the legislature.
NATIONAL RETURNS.
The returns from the various
states leave no doubt that VIM. a..
Taft is elected president by a big
majority and will probably have
about 2s9 electoral votes, 243 be-
ing required to elect. The vote in
New York state is a surprise to
everyone, giving Taft about 200, 600
plurality. It is also claimed that

Ohio went for Taft by $4,000.
Indiana gave Taft plurality of

ers, mere handful, it is true, but 4

Child-And who are they, papa?
Papa-They, my child, are the ma
tive American New Workers, whose
parents and grandparents and great
grandparents, to the third and fourth
generation, were born and brought up
in New York.
Child-And who always spoke Eng
lish?
Papa-Well, no. They spoke Dutch
lish longer than the majority OF the
rest. Those are the real New York
ers.
Child never heard of them.
Where do they keep themselves?
Papa-One of them is the president
of the United States.

Child-Well, do the simon-pure New

New York?
Papa-Yes. my boy. they dc. and
they would like to be able to sign in
a special colored ink to make it more
emphatic.
Child-Well. papa, | suppose that
if they could have kept out the for
eigners and the English-speaking
aliens and the Yankees and the
coutherners and the westerners, and
just left New York for the real born
and bred New Workers.. New York
would be even greater than it is?
Papa-No no. my boy. No city ever
gets to the top of the pile unaided. 1t
is because of all these people who
have come in to show New York how
to misgovern itself that she is the
greatest city on the western hemis-
phere and is destined to be the great
est city that the sun ever shone upon.
Child-And what will become of the
real New York New Workers.?
Papa-They will disappear after
while
Child-Why. papa?
Papa-Because it is getting to be
the fashion to be born in the country.

Child-Then they are the real New
Workers.
Papa-Not necessarily. Any man
who lives in New York for any length
of time becomes New Yorker, no
matter where he may have been born.
When he travels he registers from
New York.
Child-Is it in the air?
Papa-It is in the air. The western
er despises New York until he has
made fortune, and then he comes to
New York to spend it, and after that
he is a New Yorker The southerner
who has come to New York to live
may say that he was born in the
south, and if he doesn't his tongue
will do it for him, but he glories in
being citizen of New York. The
New Englander feels that he has hon
ored New York by coming to it and
that without him New York would not
amount to much. but he, too. signs
his name in the register as from New
York.
Child-How about the Jerseyman,
papa?
Papa-The Jerseyman is an alto
gether different proposition. Six Jer-
seymen out of ten do business in New
York, and of those six five were born
in Brooklyn when she was just Brook
lyn. The Jerseyman is not, strictly
speaking, New Yorker. II New
York is in disgrace he thanks his
stars that he spends his nights In an
other state, but if New York wins a
point he pats himself or the back and
says: I'm here most Cf my waking
time" The Jeraeyman t'so is sorely
tempted to sign his na-i ie as from
New York when he is out in Chicago,
for instance, and when he is in Eu-
rope he does do it.
Child-Well. papa, you have told
me about foreigners who We're New
Workers., and about English speaking
people who were New Workers and
about Americans who were New York
ers. but / want to know If there

who was born in New York and who

Papa-Why, yes, my child; there
are thousands born in New York who
speak English. They are hard and

were Germans and Italians and
Frenchmen and Jews and Greeks. but
they were born in New York and they
speak English.

Dread Disease Robbed Of Its Terrors
by Simple Remedy.

Owing to the prevalence Of pneu-

attends its ravages during the winter
and spring, several boards OF health
In northern New Jersey have been TAX
ing measures to protect the citizens Of
their towns from the disease. The
health board of Washington. N. j., has
published remedy which is said to
be sure cure for pneumonia. and
other health boards are looking into
the matter with a view of having the
same thing published for the good Of
the general public. This is the pub
lication as 1t has appeared in the pa
pers of Washington:
Take six or ten onions, according
to size, and chop fine. put In n large
spider over a hot fire. then add the
same quantity of rye meal and vine
gar enough to form a thick paste. In
the meanwhile stir it thoroughly, let
ting It simmer five or ten minutes.
Then put in cotton bag large enough
to cover the lungs and apply to chest
as hot as patient can bear. In about
ten minutes apply another, and thus
continue by reheating the poultices
and in a few hours the patient will be
out of danger. This simple remedy
has never failed to cure this too-often
fatal malady. Usually three or four
applications will be sufficient, but con
tinue always until the perspiration
starts freely from the chest This rem
edy was formulated many years ago
by one Of the best physicians New
England has ever known, who never
