The action of these Waters is Won
derful. They make the skin breathe
out just as your lungs expel iL1puri-
ties. Every minute of the day and
night these wonderful Waters keep
the pores busy.
Instead of clogging the pores in the
form of pimpIes, blackheads, eczema,
rash. liver spots and other skin erup-
lions, these impurities cease to gather,
they dry up and Nature soon gives
the skin the bloom of youth and
health.
If you would have a beautiful COM
plexfon, please stop using cosmetics.
Can you not realize how they plaster
up the pores? Were you to cover your
entire body with such a mask, you
would die in a day or two.
Stuart's Calcium Waters are very
pleasant to the taste. are put up in
convenient form to carry, and can be
obtained at any drug store, at so
cents d box

plexion come true. In short time

to perfect Ioveliness.-Adv.

COMMITTEE MEETING CALLED
To Select a Successor on the National
Ticket.

To Select Successor on the National
Ticket.
New York, Oct 31.-Chairman Hilles, of
the Republican national committee, has
called a meeting of the national commit
tee for November II in Chicago to select
a successor to the late James S. Sherman
as the Republican candidate for vice
president.
Mr. Hilles made the following state
Tnent:
1.-The national convention which met in
Chicago in June delegated to the national
committee power to fill vacancies on the
national ticket. The death of Mr.. Shcr
man, candidate of the Republican party
for vice president at the coming election,
makes it incumbent upon the national
committee to nominate a candidate in his
place. The nomination, however cannot
possibly be made prior to the election
next Tuesday. Such a nomination
properly be made only after due and rea-
soma Bile notice to all the members of the
committee. Such notice cannot be given
in less than six days 1t is, however,
manifestly impossible to hold such a meet
ing prior to the election. Meantime, 10
difficulty inconvenience arises to the
voters at the election next Tuesday, be
cause the votes to be cast then are for
electors and not for candidates for either
president or vice president and the death
of Mr. Sherman, therefore, does not affect
the validity of the election of the electors.
II have called meeting of the national
committee to meet upon the 18th day of
November in the city of Chicago, at the
Auditorium hotel at II O'Clock, noon, TO
select a successor to the late James s
Sherman as candidate of the Republican
party for vice president of the United
States

INTERSTATE ASSOCIATION AT MEMPHIS MAKES THIS RE-
 QUEST OF GOVERNMENT.
IN $7,OOO,OOO INSTRUMENTS
Latter Amount Expended Annually for Seven Years it Is Believed Would Complete the Levce system
 of the Mississippi.

Memphis, Sept 26.-Thirty five mil. lion dollars in five annual installments of saven million is asked of the na- tional government for the completion of levee system along the Mississippi river in resolutions adopted by the In. terstate Levee Association which con- cluded it's annual convention late to- day. The federal government is also asked to exercise certain supervis. ion over the entire system of levees, and each of the political parties were congratulated for having recognized the national import of the levee prob lem.
 The resolutions as prepared in com mittee were approved unanimously, those who had urged that the associa- tion should go on record as favoring complete federal control not pressing
 the issue
 o. N. Killough, president of the s..
 Francis levee board of Arkansas. was
 reelected president of the association. w. l.. .a ark, vice president of the Illi-
 nois Central railroad; B. F. Bush. president of the Missouri-Pacific. and J. N. Blazer of Chicago were chosen as vice presidents at large. Vice presidents from each of the states touched by the A1ississIppi river and an executive committee were also named. Permanent headquarters will be selected by the executive commit tee. secretary employed and a cam paign started i'll the interest of Ievees. which were indorsed by the associa; ton as the only means of protection against floods.
 Col. McD. Townsend. president of the Mississippi river commission, in an address this afternoon took issue with Colonel Roosevelt, who In an adss dress earlier in the day expressed the opinion tiIat flood water conservation by reservoir and reforestration would strengthen the levee system and con trol the floods in the lower valley. Levees. declard MT. Townsnd. are the only known proven means of ccnsroll- ing the waterway and preventing floods. He described Colonel Roosevelt's idea as theories anu speculations which have not applied.

 Thus" holds the attorney general, "a subscription to the capital stock of corporation implies an agreement to take and pay for it.

 The distinction between circulation among paid subscribers and the cas. ual or uncertain distribution to other purchasers has been recognized by the postoffice department in it's regula- tions (Edition of 1907 Sec. 469) where, after pointing out that the news agents right to mail second class pub lications at the pound rate of postage, under the provisions of the act of March 3. 1885.

CAUSE OF DIVORCE
 DIFFICULT TO OBTAIN
THAT IS THE OPINION OF DR. SAMUEL w. DYKE BEFORE
 HYGIENE CONGRESS.

Washington, Sept. 26. - Technical causes on which diyorces are granted are seldom the real causes, declared the Rev Dr. Samuel w. Dike. secre- tary of the National League for the Protection of the Family, in speaking today to the fifteenth international
 congress on hygiene and demography There is great difficulty in getting
 at the truth of divorce, Dr. 0ike as serted, wherefore there is no reliable statistical information on the subject Ambition for dress and social pleas ures, he chased as a leading cause of divorce. with unwilIingness to bear children. influence of sex vices. in- fiuence of property and quarrels over it's distribution, inadequate wages and innutritious food as other causes.
 If we are ever going to have clear idea of marital tendencies said Dr. Frederick l.. Hoffman of Newark. N. IL, We must have accurate data on the divorce question. Proper statis- ricai information Is necessary to ad vance in legislation, net only on this subject, but in all social problems.'
 Tho vital statistics section of the congress decided to present to the congress a recommendation that all countries make efforts to have accur- ate marriage and divorce information gathered.
 'If alcoholism was the cause of mental disease, we would all be i'm beciles," asserted Dr. Mixnknian F. F. Grossmann, director of the National Association for the Study and Educa- tion of Exception Children, for OUT ancestors drank excessively and took big night caps" and. he added, "all the Germans would be imbeciles, whereas they are nation of strong minded artisans and scientists
 Intemperance, he said, was a disease and would occur in families suffering from mental weaknesses, but until 1t had been proved that 1t was cause, 1t should not be classed as such.
 Farm hfgiene presents dreary picture, according to Dr. J. N Hurty, of the Indiana board of health, who told the delegates that the farmer was in the patent medicine stage.

publican pluralities. The effect Of this policy would be appalling if it should succeed. It would result in the return of free trade democrats to con- gross from district after district now represented by republicans. So far as the plan succeeded, there would not be left in congress d provost guard of members friendly even to mod crate degree of protection. Even if Governor Wilson, elected president un- der such conditions, should repent of the extreme policies of his party and should veto measures aimed to carry out the policy of Champ Clark. of leyeling the custom house to the ground, there would not be votes enough in the two houses to sustain the veto.
 This is the road along which the third party candidate is seeking to lead the country-not merely the de- feat of worthy republican 2residenS, but turning the country over, bound hand and foot, othe mercies of rad ical majority which would be too powerful even to be influenced by it's more sober and conservative elements. Former republicans wh ovote for the third party candidate are voting for this policy, but from the reports which are reaching me from day to day, | am satisfied that most of them are beginning to understand the danger and are turning back from the brink of the precipice."
