English Luss as. Liftsr..

English railway companies suffer
severely through, the purloinIng OF pas
sengers' baggage and other articles by
platform thieves. and In some cases it
Is difficult matter to find out the mis-
creant. One OF these luggage lifterA
was on an occasion some time ago
seen keeping vigil over a barrow OF
luggage. and In his hand he carried
apparently good sized portmanteau.
He walked up and down the platform
several times and at last stopped op-
posite the luggage. Placing his bag
on the barrow for a moment. he then
picked It up and walked on. But the
lynx eye Of one Of the railway oflcials
had also been watching the barrow,
and. going up to the man, had him ar
rested and searched. 1t was found
that his apparent portmanteau was
only skeleton and Inside had q SEQ
OF springs, ETC.. which. when placed
over smaller bag held the latter in
position. But for the slnartness Of the
official another travellers bag would
have been missing. Answers.

bear to have your faults toldY'
Many hands went up. Quick M q

minister and said:
Brother. you have spoken thirteen
times In twelve days here and perhaps
shut out twelve other good men from

It was true. The young man had
been presuming and odlclous. He had
held up his hand. but he could not
bear to be chiddcn, and now he stoutiy
defended himself. only making mat
ters worse. Then another nainlstar
broke forth and berated Mr.. Moody for
his bluntness. The latter blushed. bpt

her. But in the wisdom of its counsels
that body has determined that it will
make no recommendation or sugges-
ton in this behalf. There is little
doubt that If the Good Government
organization had made such recon-
mendation this league would have ap-
proved the same. But since it failed
to do so this league has felt that it
vas incumbent upon it to investigate
as far as practicable the character
and qualifications of the numerous
candidates for the council. and par
ticularly of those who have been affil-
lated with the Good Government move
ment, and it has accordingly under
taken to do so.
AS a result of such investigation and
consideration of the personnel of that
body OF candidates ii has determined
to suggest and recommend the follow
ing list of names as those of persons
who, as this league believes. will carry
forward the policies and reforms for
which the movement for good govern
ment in this city stands, to wit:
JOHN ID. WORKS, RICHMOND PLANT,
T. L; o'BRIEN: ROBERT NJ: LUsK,
COTT, JOSLAS j. ANDREWS, FRANK
WALKER. MARTIN F. BETKOUsKI.
In recommending these names this
league is not insensible Sof the fact
that there are other men in the long
list of candidates for the council who
are well qualified for the position and
in all respects worthy of the confidence
and suffrage of their fellow citizens,
but it must be remembered that there
are but nine couneilmen to be elected
and but nine names can be voted for
in the primary election.
Respectfully submitted,

To the Voters of the City OF Los An

The Democratic league from the be-

been in sympathy and cooperation
with the movement in this city TO re-

The league hitherto has waited until
those in charge of the campaign nave
formulated and announced the pollcy
TO be pursued, and when that has been
done has accepted such policy ana
done it's best to insure its success ar
the polls. In the recall and the elec-
ton following it the league ca accepted os ted
the action and followed the ieao OF the
Municipal league.
When the Good Government organi-
cation was organized and undertook
the task of carrying forward the work
which had been so auspiciously inau-
eurated by the Municipal league in
Eho recall. the Democratic league and
is stin to cooperate with that body
in its action. In common with the
other voters in this city who are IN
cavor of this movement it hoped and
axnected that the Good Government
ORGANIZATION through its proper COM
-oittees and other agencies would find
ont and suggest to the great body of
voters of the city from among the
numerous candidates for the council
nine persons whom it could recon-
mend to the electors as fit, competent
and suitable candidates to be voted
for at the primary election, and who if
nominated at such primary election
would be suitable persons to be voted
for at the ultimate election in Decem-

"9he Blood is The Life"

Science has never gone beyond the above simple
statement of scripture. But it has illuminated that
statement and given it meaning broadening
with the increasing breadth of knowledge. When
the blood is bad " or impure it is not alone the
body which suffers through disease. The brain is
also clouded, the mind and judgement are effected,
and many an evil deed or impure thought may be
directly traced to the implrty of the blood.
