There were several subjects up be-

upon which the assembly took some
action was that of the school holidays.

LENGTH OF NOVELS.

A plan To shorten novels 20 an aver
age length of about $4,000 words and
TO sell them to the general public
mainly through the large department
houses. for so cents apiece, is being
put forward again both i'm this coun-
try and Great Britain.
The idea is bound to fail. as far as
arbitrary measure of $4,000 words or
any other number cannot be fixed for
what should be work of art Novels
differ as widely as pictures i'm scale,
and nearly all that have lasted for
many years are long.
'Don Quixote" has about 5000
words; "Tom Jones" about 10000
Vanity Fair esteemed by many the
best novel in the English language,
about 100000, and all the other i'm
portant Thackeray novels, except
Henry Esmond." are nearly as long.
With few exceptions the Dickens
novels contain about 100000 words
apiece. Neither Thackeray nor Dick
ems was at heart historical novelist
and when they undertook work Of
this kind they ran out quickly.
George Eliot needed at least 800, 900
words to tell a story; George Sand
used nearly a half million I'm her mas
terpiece, "Consuelo-; Dumas spent a
quarter Of a million on "The Three
Musketeers' and three quarters of q
million more on its two sequels,
Twenty Years After" and 1.-THE Wis
comte de Bragelonne." LES Miser-
ahlcs" stretches out to 100000 words:
Tolstoy tells the fall of "Anna Ka-
rerlna" i'm 100000 and he puts zoe. 900
i'm WAR and Peace" The famous
Polish trilogv of Senkiewicz exceeds
100000 words.
Almost the only instance of short
novel of the very first rank is "The
Scarlet letter" which is but $4,000
words. However. there are only four
or Ave characters in IL and the action
Is brief. II may be that the novelists
of the present day are not able to pro-
duce great effects because they must
write for the passing moment. and by
the time they get acquainted with
their own characters they are COM
PEELED to bid them farewell.

TOWNSHIP CAUCUS TONIGHT.
Sharp Contests Expected for All Offices
Except Township Treasurer.

AT Amphidrome hall tonight, will be
held the caucuses for the nomination
of candidates TO the Offices TO be filled
at the election of April 4. The offices
To be filled are those OF supervisor
highway commissioner overseer of
highways. clerk treasurer, justice of
the peace. constables and members OF
the board OF review.
Supervisor Michael NJ. Foley seeks
reelection and is being opposed by Jo-
seph Bruneau. who has been making
quite a campaign. Probably one of
the most interesting contests of the
evening will be that for the office OF
clerk. Caspar Brand. who has held the
office for so many years, is being ac-
lively opposed by Charles r. Little, the
Hurontown justice of the peace, who
has many friends and began his cam
paign early. Henry Corbeille is maxi
ing red-hot run for the office of
highway commissioner and the present
incumbent, c. +. Lean, is also seeking
to be returned to the position.
The office of overseer of highways
is another for which there is to be
waged a hot battle, the contestants be-
ing Peter Mccarthy and Jerry Har-
rington. Each of these men has been
making a strong personal canvass, TO
which the last-named has added the
aid of the advertisements i'm the pa
pers. The office of treasurer is one i'm
which there will probably be no contest
as Treasurer William Palmear is just
serving his first term and there seems
to be no opposition to disturb him in
the possession of the key to the strong
box at this time. Charles Baudin is
expecting no opposition to his candi-
dacy for justice of the peace but there
have been rumors that his selection
will be opposed by a dark horse. A
similar situation confronts James Ma
har in his candidacy for the office of
constable but he will have his friends
lined up at the caucus and expects to
be returned a winner.
There seems to be no opposition, to
the retention of Joseph Croze and Il. R.
in the positions of members
of the board Of review, those Offices
seeming to have little attraction for
those inclined to enter the political
arena.

indigestion is not often a result of de-
fective teeth; rather is dental decay
the result of Indigestion. An unhealthy
state of the mouth is itself simply a
part of a general vital depreciation.
Decay of the teeth is generally ac-
companied by a coated tongue and
other evidences of bacteria. The above
facts are presented as evidence that

The American people, writes Horace
Fletcher, are losing their teeth. The
same process of dental decay is going
on among all civilized nations. The

happen to compare the skulls i'm the
burial places of the ancient mound
builders with those exhumed from
present day cemeteries will be greatly
impressed by the contrast. The mound

day skull rarely, II ever contains thir-

short time that the thirty-two teeth
are present. The latest comers-the
so-called wisdom teeth-of which
there are four, one at each end of the
arch OF each jaw, remain but a short

TO decay before they have emerged
from the jaw. II is very rare indeed
that person is found who possesses

making the determination OF the wolves
complete.
THE present bounty plan of going
after the wolves has proven ineffective
so far as holding the wolves in check
is concerned. This is because of the
methods adopted by the private trap
pers. They kill the male wolves to
secure the bounty. but let the females
go. Their object is. of course, to fos-
ter the breeding of more wolves and
the perpetuation of their source of
bounty revenues. The government
trappers. on the other hand. work for
the determination of the wolves and
they naturally go after the female
wolves first of all.
