has been made, as in the election OF
certain undesirable men in this state,
but when the people become accus-
toned to the law, they feel a deeper
responsibility and exercise greater
care in the choice of men for whom
they vote. This year a legislature
should be chosen which can be de-
pended on to register the public will
and to protect the public interest
against all attempts to in any way
weaken the direct primary law. In
this way bribery and legislative cor
ruption such as was recently brought
to light in New York and Illinois will
be averted and laws bearing the
stamp of justice will be placed on the
statute books.

"Your custom?"
1.-The custom of the candles. In this

hundreds of years. Since the time of
the Emperor Charlemagne, in France,
one hears, whenever death comes to
visit one of this family candles to the
number of his years, one candle for
each year, were set upon the altar of
the old chapel at the chateau In Nor
mandy. No matter how or where one
OF the family died, perhaps at home,
perhaps far away in battle, there were
the candles upon the altar. 1t is
curious custom, father. And the old
tales say 1t led to tragedy once.
But because of that do you think that
the De valettes abandoned 1t? Not

The railroad companies should also
take into consideration the fact that
it requires considerable bracing ma

requires none for barrel apples, and
we do not believe it would be their

material. This has very likely been
overlooked by the railroads in weigh
