FROM ANOTHER VIEWPOINT
The Superintendent's Observations
On Persistent Efforts

A little more than a year ago.
with mem bership of e. ~
dozen, an aggressive cam psign or
new members was inaugurated and
after months OF hard and systematic
work the class enrollmens pa d
the hundred mark.
In order to have som sthing de-
Unite towards which efforts should
be directed, the class leaders set 25
members as the goal. In a short
time that number was reached;
then 30 was the mark. After con-
siderable effort that number was
also reached, and then a cam paign
was entered on for 75. That num-
Der was difficult to enroll, but by
united and enthusiastic effort the
goal was reached. 1t seemed then
that the class might rest with work
well done. but opportunity beckon-
ed on ward, and the workers press
ed forward, fixing a standard of
MOh OOl Gull tudI low QdT6Q lODoQ
would be realized, 100. With wise
planning and determined execution,
canvassing wherever and whenever
young man was found not connect
ed with Sunday School, each men,
Der of the class regarding himself
as committee of one to bring in
one additional recruit, the good
work was prosecuted 'decently and
in order" until the enrolment Of
the class reached 100. This was
high tide. II one member of the
class could not induce a young man
to join, another would visit him and
extend an invitation, and still an
other, until the man solicited could
not help from feeling that be was
really wanted in the class, and be
generally came.

Towels For a Doll House.


Little housekeepers who have dolls
houses either for the paper dolls or for
the larger bisque beauties will find it
very easy to make sets of towels to
go on the doll washstand and in the
bathroom. Plain dull white paper may
be used for the towels and the Dor
deys made Of colored crayon. When
the ends Of the towels are fringed and
they are folded and put on the towel
rack or across the top Of the wash
stand 1t Is surprising how exactly like
towels they look.
If little housekeeper Is ambitious
she may make sets Of napkins, table
cloths and doilies from the damask
paper, which may now be bought and
which looks exactly like the real dam
ask. Sheets may be made Of the
white paper. and cOunterpanes can
have borders OF cut work embroidery.
This Is made by folding the counter
pane In four parts and then cutting
the pattern through so that 1t appears
uniform on the four parts. Pillows
and pillOwcases may be made Of the
paper and the piliowslips decorated
with the cutwark-

In spite of n summer season which
has been unusually dry. a whole lot
of farmers who trusted to continued
dry weather have been having a good
deal OF grief through leaving their
grain in shock In the field. Not only
has much of this grain been discolored
and even sprouted by unexpected
rains, but its presence in the field has
prevented early fall blowing. which
has 30 much in its favor One would
think that a fellow who had got caught
in this way once would not be again.

and others had their supply of seed

advantage In this plan aside from

BREAKS A COLD IN
JUST FEW HOURS
Proves Qninine Is Never Effec'
tive in the Cure of a Severe
Cold or the Grippe.

Nothing else that you can take will
break your cold OF end grippe so
promptly as a dose of Pape's Cold
Compound every two hours until three
consecutive doses are taken.
The most miserable headache, dull
ness, head and nose stuffed up, fever
ishness, sneezing, running Of the nose.
sore throat, mucous catarrhal dis
charges, soreness, stiffness, rheuma-
tism pains and other distress begin to
leave after the very first dose.
Pape's Cold Compound is the result
of three years research, at a cost of
more than fifty thousand dollars, and
contains no quinine, which We have
conclusively demonstrated is not ef-
fective in the treatment of colds or
grippe.
Take this harmless Compound as
directed, with the knowledge that
there is no other medicine made any
where else in the world which will
cure your cold or end Grippe misery
as promptly and without any other as
sistance or bad after-effects as a rs
cen package of Pape's Cold Com
pound, which any druggist in the world
can supply.

that "he deeply regrets the loss OF the
Legislature Assembly to the Demo-
cratic party through the loss of Es-
sex county"
Continuing, Mr.. Nugent says in part;
THE fact Is thai the Democratic or
sanitation in Essex county worked
faithfully and with indefatigable zeal
for the election Of Harry V. Osborne
for State senator and the twelve can
didates for the Assembly.
."If there is any responsibility to be
| placed upon persons who call them
selves Democrats for the failure to
| elect Senator Osborne and his asso-
| ciates, that responsibility is Upon Gov
| ernor Wilson and upon Chairman
Grosscup and the other supporters of
the governor.
"rhe only Democrats in Essex county
who did not vote for the legislative
candidates were the so-called Wilson
Democrats.
This element made its position very
| apparent to all men. AT the outset the
regularly constituted representatives
of the Democratic party in Essex coun-
ty indorsed a ticket for the primaries.
An opposition ticket was presented by
Il COlcIlG IIdl was IOSi oAtCo AtSa'
every discredited element in the county
that had presumed to call itself Demo
cratic.
1.-THE primaries were conducted under
the Geran law, which is generally rec
ognized as the child of the Governor.
1t was a fair primary, honestly won.
The local leaders of the Wilson element
refused to indorse the action of the pr1-
mares. The chairman of the Woodrow
Wilson League refused to say he would
support the ticket at the election.
There is every reason to believe that he
did not do so, and that those who were
associated with him were likewise dere-
lict in party duty"
Mr.. Nugent then calls attention to the
| statement sent broadcast from Trenton
quoting John J. Clifford, chairman OF
! the Wilson League as saying that the
Essex county assembly ticket would be
taken by 10000 votes and then contin-
ues:
THE election returns prove positive
ly that united support Of the legislative
ticket was given by the regular or
~ganization. They prove with equal
finality that tine so-called Wilson
Democrats betrayed the party. In the
localities where the organization donli-
mates the vote was heavy and consis-
tent, all the candidates being equally
supported.
"But In the districts in which the
WtIscnites were strong in the recent
primary hight the ticket was s1ashed
without mercy. senator Osborne re-
ceived loyal support from me and those
who follow my leadership. An analy-
sis of the vote positively proves that
fact. Yet Mr.. Osborne was the oniy
Legislative candidate In whose election
Governor Wilson was Interested.
THE Democratic party did much bet
ter in Essex County comparatively
than in the counties in which Cover
nor Wilson made his most urgent APP
peals."

GIRL TETANUS VICTIM
CURED BY ANTIsTOXIN.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 1o.-After
three weeks of treatment. during which
1901 900 units of anti-toxin were admin
istered IN doses Of 10000 units each,
Annie Bokowinski, 10 years old, of 24oo
East Dauphin street, who was a suf-
ferer from a severe case of lockjaw,
was discharged as cured from st
Marys Hospital yesterday. The case Is
regarded by physicians as n of the
comparatively few of its kind where a
cure was accomplished.
On September 80 the girl was vaccin-
ated on the arm and three days later it
became infected. The arm began tc
swell and while preparations were be-
ing made to emove her to a hospital
tetanus developed. When the patient
was admitted to the hospital, it was
thought that her case vas hopeless.
