elected ten members of the house

Republicans having 146 and the

"If the Greenbackers with 3O7 600
votes could elect ten members of

chew the food thoroughly. Many
children half chew their food. If a
child learns bad habits in eating
while young, it often takes years to
overcome them.
In case of disease the amount of
food should be greatly reduced, and
where there is fever, no solid food
should be given. The same rule is
good in hot weather: give less solid
food and plenty of water.
Children should not touch sausage,
salted meat, or pork. until they are
ten years of age. Meats, such as a
mutton chop, white meat of chicken
or beef steak is good once a day
Fried meat should never be given
to children.
Bread should be thoroughly dried
in the oven until it is crisp. Chill
dren do not always like this, but
soon become accustomed to it. Nut
ton and chicken broth with rice,
soups made of peas or spinach put
through a sieve are good for chill
dren over eight years old The
baked potato is very easily digested
and may be given to small children.
Stewed celery and spinach are two
of the best vegetables for children
They should be thoroughly cooked
and mashed or put through a sieve.
Children between three or four years
of age may begin to eat vegetables
If the vegetables are properly cooked.
Cabbage and corn should never be
given to a young child.
As for desserts. small amount of
ice cream, simple puddings, or Gus
tards or baked fruits.

have variety. Always have sand
wiches and have them made of diff
ferent kinds of bread One day
white, the next whole wheat, the
next brown, and perhaps a little bak-
ing powder biscuit the last day of the
week. There are SO many good nour-
ishing sandwich filings. And moth
ers can very easily find a number of
these delicious sandwiches in some
of the cook books.
Nuts often take the place of meat,
but should be chopped fine and di-
vided. If cheese is used, ut should
be grated and put between bread and
butter. Chopped dates or figs with
little cream mixed and put between
whole wheat bread, makes a very
nutritious sandwich, or nuts and
raisins may be chopped together.
Prunes and peanuts make good
sandwich. but they must be chopped
finely and put between white bread.
Fruit should be in every lunch
basket. A baked apple. a banana, or
an oragne. may be pealed and halved
and wrapped in piece Of wax paper.
Two or three marchmellows or
small piece of pure sweet chocolate
Is allowable in the lunch basket.

THIS VOTE MUST
BE RECK0NED WITH
The Old Party Leaders Respect the Strength Of the Pohi
bitionists-- Million Votes May be Poled
Some Interesting figures

A prominent and well informed
newspaper writer in Washington
made tn following interesting re-
marks in one of his contributions to
number of the leading dailies of
the country:
General recognition is accorded
the fact that the Prohibition vote is
going to have to be reckoned with in
the coming presidential election. The
Prohibitionists claim they will poll
more than a million votes for their
presidential candidate. and there is
a disposition in both the major par
ties to concede that the claim is well
founded. II the Prohibitionists de-
velop this much strength, their votes
may change the result in more than
one close state.
THE largest Prohibition vote ever
polled was in 1892, when John Bid
well received 264.133. Four years
ago Silas X. Swallow, the Prohib-
Zionist candidate for president, re-
ceived 25S,7S7. Should the vote be
increased this year to a million 1t
may do even more than determine
the result in a number of close
states. With a million Prohibition
lists voting their party ticket, the
election of Prohibitionists to con-
gress might reasonably be expected.
and 1t Is entirely within the range of
possibility that they may hold the
balance of power in the next house
of representatives.
1.-THE possibility of this must be
acknowledged when it is recalled
that the largest third party vote ever
polled was in 1892. when James B.

Then the tssi business of the session
was taken up, which was to fire all
the various road supervisors through
out the district and appoint new ones
who knew what was expected of them
in this. time of near election The
ground had been laid for this action.
At the previous meeting of the board
il had been resolved that hereafter in
this county the power of appointment
in the various districts should be tax
en- out of the hands of the individual
supervisors and vested in the board,
thus shutting out the three Democratic
members. Then. in the meanwhile, pc
titions from the various districts had
been prepared and sent in.
Every petition was granted and ev-
cry district gets a new road boss. No
reasons were advanced why any of the
old ones should be fred and evidently
none were expected. The majority
knew what they wanted and the minor
ity knew what they could expect. One
petition was given the hoist. That
was one from a number of the signers
of a petition who stated that they had
signed it unwittingly. They wanted
to cancel their signatures, but as the
petition suited the majority, the second
petition was not allowed or consider
ed, but the one they said they had
signed under Misrepresentation was
granted.
In every vote the board divided four
to three. three Democrats voting
against three Home Rulers and Re

own set of parliamentary rules to guide

that pleased him most and generally
