The most significant poll chat has

Brooklyn, n. Y, Daily Eagle, con-

and read largely by conservative
people, which shows that Col. Roose-
Welt is a big favorite In the race
for the Presidential nomination
against President Taft. In the few
DAYS that the poll has been running
Col. Roosevelt has gained a sub
stantial margin over Mr. Taft, and
that in what is considered one of the
most conservative districts in New
York state.
At present the poll results are as
follows:
Roosevelt .................. 26lI
Taft ..-..---.--. zloo
Wilson leads the Democratic
nominees with 811 votes, and Clark
is a close second with 772.
It.was announced in the Eagle to-

Mr.. Taft the day before, which
result is borne out In more striking
detail in polls taken in other places

The Men Who Succeed

as heads of large enterprises are
men of great energy. Success, to-
day, demands health. To all is to
fail. It's utter folly for a man to
endure a weak, rundown, half alive
condition when Electric Bitters win
put him right on his feet in short
order. "Four bottles did me more
real good than any other medicine I
ever took" writes Chas. B. Allen,
Sylvania, Ga. "After years of
suffering with rheumatism, liver
trouble, stomach disorders and de-
ranged kidneys, I am again, thanks
to Electric Bitters, sound and we'll. "

Mortgage Exemption.

Now is the time for filing appli-
cations for mortgage exemption.
Heretofore there has been a little
carelessness in making out these
papers, and it will be remembered
that at the recent meeting of the
county and township assessors, with
the state officials, held in this city,
it was decided that the law must be
complied with more strictly.
Any notary can make out these
applications, provided you can tell
just what is wanted. The assessors
desire, as the law directs, that the
book and page where the mortgage
is recorded be given, the name of
the holder of the mortgage. with his
address, and if the mortgage has
been assigned to another party, the
name and address of the present
holder be given. IF you are at the
court house this can be attended to
at the Recorders Office. or the
Auditors Office. as the deputies
there understand what, is necessary,
or several of the young ladies who
are engaged in abstract work at the
Recorder office understand what
to do and know where the records
are Have it done right, or your
exemption application is liable to be
thrown out by the board of equali-
;ation, and you suffer loss. Mr..
Smith, the County Assessor is anx-
ious that every one understand what
IS necessary

Experts Say Good Fishing.

Fishermen who make a study of
the sport say that when the season
opens there will be unusually good
sport in this section of the state.
They argue that the hard winter
weather was just as hard on the
fish as on us. and that when the
season comes the fish will be ready
to bite at almost anything offered
them. Get your hook and line out
and polish the brass on the bamboo
pole, so as to be ready.

SELECTING THE DAIRY BULL
Many Firmers Make Mistake In Try
Ing t. Buy Cheap Scrub Rather
Than Good Strong Animal.

A great many farmers who buy a
registered dairy bull make the seri-
Gus mistake of trying to buy a cheap
pure-breed scrub rather than a strong
foundation animal on which to build
the future herd. The only thing they
look for is the fact that the bull is
registered and Is offered at Low
price. hut II ever a man needs a
first-clasB animal 1t is when he is
starting. Most men start out with
the idea that they can buy such an
animal for $50 to 800. But II one
was offered them for 5000 that had
come through long. careful line Of
wise breeding they would refuse to
consider it, Right here is where they
make their mistake. When men start
TO look for bull price is the last
thing to think OF. So many farmers
look at this important subject wrong
end foremost. Let them really inves-
tigate the breeding policies Of differ
ent men and they will see what a seri-
Gus difference there is In the money
value OF one animal over another
Don't le: few dollars come between

MaLnuts HIah In Food Value.

The food value of walnuts is very
high. They are very rich in fat. con-
tanning as much as So per cent, while
the proteins amount to nearly Is per
cent 1t has been calculated that 80
large walnut kernels contain as much
fat tas 2% pounds Of lean beef, and
yet the walnut is used as a supple
ment to square meal. Added to
this the glass of port. say two fluid
ounces. contains besides $50 grains Of
alcohol. 10 grains of grape sugar In
the combination, therefore. We have
all the elements which make for a
complete diet--viz. Fat. protein, car
bohydrate, to which may be added
mineral salts. Port and walnuts after
meal are therefore, from nutritive
point Of view, ridiculous excess"
and may lead to digestive disturbance
Both walnuts and port wine contain
tannin. which is unsuited to some con-
stitutions.

BURNED JUDAS IN EFFleY
In That Way the Guides Showed Their
Love for the Christian
Religion.

We hanged Judas Iscariot today.
Having expressed our Joy over the res
direction Of Christ by gorging our
selves with roast lamb and bitter
wine, by firing guns, rockets and tor
pedoes and by lighting bonfires. we
gave vent to our remaining enthusk
asm in one grand burst Of mock ven,
geance directed against the unfortu.
nate mortal who was destined from
the foundation Of the world to figure
as cats paw in the plan of salvation.
The burning took place In the front
of little church OF the Virgin, sit
uated on the highest part of the city.
From a pole erected before the door
hung a crude, wretched. melancholy
figure stuffed with straw, and ridicu-
lousy suggesting the image of man.
Within the church the priest was con-
Quoting the regular Sunday service.
At last the doors were thrown wide
open and the whole congregation
gushed forth like water from a broken
dam, and Immediately thereafter ev-
cry man and boy in the square was
shooting away at the efigy. Poor Ju-
das whirled about and danced in the
air as the bullets peppered him. and
suddenly burst into flames. When a
Greek feels particularly happy. or
wishes TO express his enthusiasm he
produces an old musket or pistol and
discharges it. Resurrection Day in
Greece resembles the Fourth of July

Early Insurance Scheme.

A very early scheme of insurance

poor rates gave birth to the proposal

should contribute to a national fund

as year 11kd weekly; and when
sick OF disabled should receive benefit
at the rate of As week, with one shil-
ling a week added for each child.
There were. of course, many other de-
tails, but the chief interest lies in
the fact that this was perhaps the
earliest proposal for the national In
surance of the laborer against inval-
dity."-London Chronicle.
