A Word From Mr.. Wheeler.

Congressman Nelson P. Wheeler, who
made such a courageous, manly and hon
orable fight in the campaign just closed,
and who carried four out of the i've coun-
ties in his district for denomination, gave
out the following brief statement before
leaving for his official duties at Washing
ton yesterday:
ITO the voters of the Twenty. eighth Dis
trict.
ut appears that the decision at the polls
has been in favor of my competitor by
very small majority. Four of the five
counties decided in my favor, but we're
swamped by the overwhelming vote in
Veuango county. / have tried to conduct
clean campaign. | wish to thank my
friends for their loyal and earnest sup
port"
Mr.. Wheeler would liked to have won
this contest, to be sure, and he surely
feels pride in the fact that he carried
four out of the five counties in the dis
trict, although not by sufficient majorities
to entirely overcome the landslide in We
mango. Yet after all, he feels relieved to
know that very soon he shall be again
pursuing the peaceful quiet of his own
business affairs, which must have suf-
fered much by his absence from home.
While in Congress he, has given his
whole attention to the duties of that posi-
ton, and never once was he found want
ing when matters of importance were un-
der consideration in the house of repre-
sentatives; and never were the wants of a
single constituent in his district ovor-
looked. These are all matters which are
bound to worry and wear upon the mind
and energy of conscientious representa-
tiye, and it is little wonder that he should
breathe easier and feel relieved now that
it is all over. To the loyal friends in his
home county and throughout the entire
district who fought so valiantly for him,
Mr.. Wheeler feels he owes debt ofgrsti-
tude that he can never fully repay, and
whenever and wherever the opportunity
presents itself TO return the favor they
nay rest assured it will not be over
looked.

The growing, developing boy or girl

over-mental development, extreme phys

time of adolescence energy is called upon
in new directions, and if lavishly used,
abused or exhausted in worng directions,
there is not left sufficient for the perfect
performance of all the functions, charac-
terizing the body. This wrong eXpendi-
ture may be in pampering the appetite for
food, which does not necessarily mean
the eating ofyery highly seasoned, spiced
and indigestible food. 1t may mean
equally an over-indulgence in the ice

One Of his "friends' gave out the following
slush the other day:
Mr.. Rockefellers sole idea is to so use the

His idea is that the truest charity is the

To those who have the privilege of knowing
Mr. rockefeller intimately, it is news that he
is naturally an altruist. The accumulation of
wealth is and always has been with him merely
an incident, not end. That he has accumu-
lated perhaps the greatest individual fortune in
the world is due simply to his wonderful power
OF organization and his ability to turn great
dreams into reality.
His pleasure has been in the accomplishment
