The complete returns of the Second
municipal ward. as tabulated by the Of
fetal canvassing board. show heavy
railing off in the Democratic and Amer
lcan vote and an enormous gain for the
Republicans. Two years ago the Amer
lean county ticket carried the Secon /
precinct by 800 votes, and a year ago the
American city ticket swept the pre-
clnct with a plurality of nearly / 500
their candidates receiving more votes than
the Republicans and Democrats COM
bined, This year the Republican county
candidates carry the precinct by a plu-
rality of fifty votes. nearly doubling the
Republican vote of year ago in this pre-
cinct.
The total vote shows an enormous in
crease over year ago. with the indica-
tons that the Republicans were the BE
cipients of practically every one of the
new votes cast. The total vote of the
precinct for two years ago was $3.50. and
for q year ago 5,S59 This year the total
vote is 6,SS7. gain of 1000 from two years
ago and 1000 from year ago.
The vote for the American county
ticket shows a gain of 400 votes from two
years ago and loss of nearly 300 votes
from a year ago. The Democratic county
ticket shows a gain of 100 votes over that
received by the Democratic county candi-
votes from the vote of Morris a year ago.
On the other hand the vote for the Re-
publican county candidates shows a gain
of 1900 votes from the vote for Plummer
OF a year ago.
Taft carries the Second precinct two to
one, receiving 1000 more votes than the
rest of the Republican ticket, which in
dicates that not only all of the Repub-
licans in the precinct. but also a large
majority of Americans voted for Taft
Debs received 457 votes in the precinct,
which is three and one-half times the vote
of the Socialist party of two years ago
and eight times the vote of the Socilist
candidate for mayor a year ago. There
were S21 voters who failed to indicate
their choice for president Spry ran go
votes behind the Republican county ticket
and 23Co votes behind Taft. Spry carried
the precinct however. by 81 votes, a
larger plurality than was received by any
other Republican candidate In the pre-

and she began drumming when quite
young. An aunt who is a musician, be-
longed TO one Of the many Boston orches-
tras and this particular one was without
a female drummer. Miss McDonough was
urged by her aunt to learn how to drum,
and she did. Now there are few men who
can equal her.
And what do you Think" asked Miss
McDonough. Il played my first profess
sional engagement in a cemetery. 1t was
like this. One Memorial day | was re-
quested by Grand Army post in Boston
to play at the graves of their dead COM
rades. The services were early in the
morning, and l played. Before the day
was over / had played in eight ceme-
teries. 1 was then just 10 years of age
Following her cemetery engagement.
Miss McDonough was sought out by Mrs.
Nicholas. director of the Fadette orches-
ira, and she signed a contract to play
with this organization. Last season she
made up her mind that she could make
more money and see more of the world by
going it alone and so she did. Already
she has done a good share of her trip
around the world. She has been from
Boston to Portland. Ore. then to San
Francisco. Denver, Chicago. New Orleans
and Philadelphia. II is her intention to
play all over the continent after she
opens In Paris next February. and then
go to Australia, the far east and the Phil

Beauty and
Bad Breath
Cannot Go Together No Matter How
Woman May Try to
Make Them.

1t does not matter how beautiful a
woman may be, If she is afflicted with
bad breath she will be Stunned and pit
led by men and even women will stu
diously avoid her.
If any woman doubts this statement
let her make d point of asking friend
in whom she may confide, a man friend
or relative. If ne be honest he will tell
her that foul breath from the mouth of
woman will drive men from her more
rapidly than any other personal afflic-
ton.
Foul breath arouses in man disgust,
and where this quality is brought into
play no amount of self-denial or reason
ing can overcome the natural repugnance
which comes TO a man when he Is in COM
pany with such a woman.
What is true of bad breath in a woman
is not true in so great a degree in men.
Women are looked upon as the incar-
and refinement Foul breath will sick
en- j man so that he cannot feel for
such a woman a companionship neces-
sary to make him desire to be in her
company.
There is absolutely no occasion for bad
breath in either men or women Charcoal.
the strongest absorbent known. when
taken into the stomach, will prevent this
repugnant tendency or affliction.
Stuart's Charcoal LoZenges are sold in
tremendous quantities all over America
and Canada. They cure and have cured
all forms of bad breath. A single box
III CoIiNluCc you VI ltiiS O0e should
eat some of these lozenges after each
meal and upon retiring. You might eat
fifty of them without harm. They are
not medicine, but pure willow charcoal
mixed with sweet honey to make them
palatable, and compressed into a Iozenge
to preserve their peculiar and lasting
strength.
The next time you wish to go into COM
pany and don't want your foul breath to
humiliate you, eat several of Stuart
Charcoal Lozenges and your breath will
be pure and sweet
