A motion was introduced at a political
meeting last night to indorse one Of the
tickets, and r was announced that 1.-THE
tail Of our ticket Is stronger than the
head of the other one, and that 1t will
surely win.'' The motion was presented
amid flowers Of speech, and when the
speaker had claimed himself and q furry
of applause had swept the hall . young
man arose to second the motion.
He was q powerful speaker. He let
that be known at the first utterance. His
head shook and his frame quivered as he
called upon the skies to witness the pur-
ity Of his political friends. He called on
all men to step forward and point out q

passages was to this effect:
"Of course, l don't like to indulge in

has a tendency 10 insomnia FOR this
treason should always Try 10 get q
good long. brisk walk In the evening.
But. after all%the most common and
