PRODUCTS OF NATURE Are the Most Nutritious. Delicious and
 Beneficial.

How quickly the human system re- bels at natures products which Providence did not design as a food or medicine, yet how many of our most nourishing and delicious foods and fruits. as well as our most heal ing medicines are enveloped in un- wholesome coverings, and it is left for the ingenuity of man to prepare them for use.
 For instance, the nourishing egg must be broken from its shell, the succulent oyster, or the crab, taken from it's shell Nuts, oranges and bananas are encased in most un- wholesome shells CT coverings. The roots and herbs of the field contain some of our most potent and healing incidents which must be extracted for use Just so, the cods liver con tains wel-known curative clements. unexcelled in the treatment of pulmon- ary troubles.
 For centuries people were obliged to swallow greasy cod liver oil and emul- sions to get the benefit of these valu- able curative elements Physicians the world over recognized the uselessness of the oil. but how 10 separate the med icin1l clements from the objectionable oil, has been the question.
 After years of experimenting. two eminent French chemists have. by q scientific. extractive and eoneentrat- ing process produced from fresh cods' livers all of the medicinal healing and body building clements of cod liver oil emitting the oil ontireiy, and these combined with peptonate-of-iron make Ninol, which is more potent than any | other known Cod Liver preparation As body builder, and strength creator and for all pulmonary troubles it has no equal Try Vinol on our guarantee.

 ''I do not know where he is at pres ent but I am not taking the matter seriously. I was at New York on Sun day with my father and the family and since I returned to college I have heard nothing from him That did not sur prise me for he writes me only once a week usually but I generally get his letter in the middle or the week.

party leaders. yet I believe that inc laws of the state should be so framed as to impose individual responsibility. where it is not voluntarily assumed bv the voter.
 I thoroughly appreciate the force of the suggestion that we have advanced to more complex condition of soci ety. where in large centers of popula- ton. ordinances must be the product of delegated authority in common councils and no longer by the direct popular r vote in town meeting. as in the days of the founders of this form of govern ment And if ordinances having the force of law, why is not the same prin- ciple of delegated authority as applic- able to the choice of candidates?
 TO this argument l would reply that the persons to whom such authority Is delegated are directly responsible to their constituencies, who as they ob serve the vote and voice of their public servants may rebuke or commend, as the case may be.
 On the other hand, the delegate who attends his party convention. and who upon arriving upon the scene of action is tipped off by the local political boss as 10 where he can find the band wag on, feels no such responsibility to the constituency which he represents.
 Following Senator Judson, MT Ke- nealy reiterated his former statements and Senator Frank S. Butterwortf closed the evening with a hearty en- dorsement of the direct primary plan as a means of getting popular and eff ticient government
