ELECTION PASSES OFF
 VERY QUIETLY IN JACKSON

Jackson, Miss, November 6-(Special) The election passed off very quietly In Jackson, as might have been expected in communities where there is no opposi- tion to the democratic ticket worth men tioning There were none of the excit- ing times seen around the polls that are experienced when there Is state ticket to be voted for, or when mu- nicipal contest is on. On such occasions hacks and buggies are filing in every di- rection, bringing the lame, the halt and the blind to the polls, but there was none of that this time, and small vote is the consequence.
 The vote for presidential electors Is really larger in Mississippi, however, than would have been the case If the people had not been called upon to vote for or against the retention of the office or county attorney. Here the office is de- manded and a decided majority has been recorded In favor of its continuation. It has more than paid It's own way, having overbalanced the expenses of several terms of circuit court, and 1t IS looked upon as a necessity. Hinds is the most populous county in the state, has the greatest amount of criminal business, and 1t has come to pass that the district at torney cannot attend to the business or this and the counties of Madison and Yazoo-the counties composing his dls- trict

Population in Near East

From the Christian Herald.
 As we traverse, this busy street, either on foot or in the electric cars, we see a motley variety of people. for Salonik now. as in ancient times. is famous for it's cosmopolitan population. This is one of the meeting places of the east and west. Here the Occident and the Orient jostle each other in the same narrow highway. In Paul's time the Jews were numerous, and so they are today. There was no synagogue in Phillippi, in Amphi- polls or Apollonia, but evidently there was a large synagogue&in Saloniki, and here the apostle first proclaimed his uni versal message. Today it seems as if every other person one meets on the street is a Jew. The Jewish women are distinguished from the Turkish ladies by their unveiled faces, and from the Greeks by the fllet around their heads and the green silk headdress hanging down he- hind Often, too, they wear long green lubes lined with fur
 But besides the Jews and Turks and Greeks there are Bulgarians and Armen- fans, English and Germans. Wallachians and Albanians, French and Italians, and occasionally very occasionally, an Ameri- can. But the quality of the Americans makes up for any hck of numbers, since Most of those who make Saloniki theii home are engaged in mission work, ano have for their chief purpose the procla- nation of the same gospel that Pau preached

fined entirely to republicans, several Jack son democrats of long standing hav- ing cast their ballots for the Roosevelt ticket. It has been stated here by friends of MT. Roosevelt that he would get a heavy vote in some of the delta counties, notably Washington, and returns are anN- iously awaited to see if the voters of that section of the state have departed from the ways of their fathers.
 Of course, there Is no question as to how Mississippi will vote. but 1t will be week at least before the official re- turns are received from all the counties. The ticket is d long one, and the count will be tedious.

f The Rev. John Alexander addressed about 75 men at the weekly luncheon of the Chamber of Commerce yesterday at the Gold Lien tea room. The luncheon was served promptly at 1 o'clock and the attendance was far in excess of the ex- pectations.
 MT Alexander spoke on "The Teen Age" and gave a very strong talk on the American boy of today. He stated thet the school system of the country does not properly equip the modern boy for iifes struggles and advocated voca- tional school or vocational courses in tine schools of today He also spoke for mu. nicipal playgrounds.

Fort Payne. November 6.-(Special.) J. The first DeKalb County Fair ever held il. this county was formally opened this morning and during the day the grounds were thronged with several thousand vis- itors. The opening was most suspicious and the indications are that the grounds will be crowded with visitors each day Of the week.
 Visitors from all parts of north Ala bama are expected and on Thursday the business men of the town have invited the business men of Birmingham, Chat tanooga and Gadsden to be present
 Practically everything was In readiness when the gates were thrown open this morning. The stormy weathtr af last Friday and Saturday retarded the work of preparations at the fair grounds. and all day yesterday a small army of work men was busy placing exhibits in readi- ness for the opening this morning.
 The exhibits are all fine, and the wom- ans building is beautiful with its wonder full display of fancy work and canned fruits etc.
 Nearly every inch of space in tho four large rooms of the opera house has been taken up.
 In two of the rooms opening into each other is arranged the agricultural display. Here Is shown an exhibit by M. P. Hunter or Sand fnOuntdinf WnO mas an lHuiViuuat booth showing 175 varieties of farm prod uets. It is one of the most interesting in the building and shows what can be done on 8 small farm Sand noun tain.
 The exhibition of live stock Is all so fine and a number of fine herds of cat tie are shown The horses etc., are also good. Several fine pens of chickens are also shown.
 The hest amusement attractions that could be secured will show during the week.
 The shows on the midway are all en- tertaining, and there is nothing in them of an objsctonal nature. The free at fractions are also fine.

Valuable Ashes

From the Westminster Gazette.
 The Birmingham doctor who absent mndedly threw some bandages on the fire. and then burned d fey specks or radium worth e1oO, will be lucky if he recoyers the whole hundred pounds worth of radium as result or the laboratory treatment to which the ashes are to be subjected.
 Professor Curie himself nearly lost the first few grains of the wonder element ever separated from pitch blende by al- lowing the glass tube containing 1t to fall to the floor of his lecture hall in Paris. The tube broke and the ra- dium was scattered in all directions whereupon the professor had the whole floor carefully swept and every scrap of dust collected. This latter was then dissolved and all but fraction of the lost radium recovered.

To Remove Sallowness,
 Blotches or Wrinkles
eFrom Family Physician)

Do you realize that just beneath that coarse, muddy or discolored complexion there's an exquisitely beautiful skin of voutbful tint and delicacy? If you could only bring this complexion to the sur face. discardfng the old one! You can in inc easiest, simplest, most natural manner ina ginable. Just get an ounce of ordinary mereolized wax at any orus atore apply nightly like cold cream, re- moving 1t mornings with warm water. The wax assists Nature by gradually taking off the lingering particles Of dead and half-dead surface skin, caus- ing no discomfort whatever Ordinarily If takes from a week to ten days to comnlete the transformation. Cutaneous defects like pimples. blotches, liver spots, moth patches, freckles, of course disapnear with the old skin. Nothing else that know of will accomplish such wonderful results in so short time.
 Fine lines and even the deeper wrin- kles often appear at an early age. In such cases nothing is better than face bath made by dissolving 1 oz. powdered saxolite in 1s pt. witch hazel. This is remarkably effective.

 Surgeons in the house of Mercy hos pital today took 132 nails of various sizes, two keys, a buttonhook and a piece of iron from the stomach of Luke Parsons. the human ostrich" Parsons was pro- pairing for his annual Thanksgiving feast. and while in training was troubled with what he termed slight attack of indiges- ton. The surgeons diagnosed his case as peritonitis and performed an operation. A sharp nail had punotured the abdomen and had caused the trouble.
 Parsons has rallied and may live If he does it will be long time before he can again, if ever, make a breakfast on nails and keys.
 Parsons, who is 70 years old, accidentally swallowed some shingle nails ten years ago and has had a craving for metal diet ever since. Knives, spikes and can open CTS were regarded by him as special deli caces.
