NOT SALTS AND
PILLS. "CASCARETS"
If Constipated, Bilious, Head
achy, Stomach Sour, get a
10 cent box of Cascarets.

You men and women who
can't get feeling right-who have
headache, coated tongue, foul
taste and foul breath. dizziness,
can't sleep, are bilious. nervous
and upset, bothered with a sick,
passy, disordered stomach, or
have backache and feel worn out.
Are you keeping your bowels
clean with Cascarets. or merely
forcing a passageway every few
DAYS with salts. cathartie pills or
castor oil? This is important.
Cascarets work while you
sleep: cleanse and regulate the
stomach, remove the sour; I'M
digested and fermenting food
and foul gases; take the excess
bile from the liver and carry
out of the system all the constr
pated waste matter and poison
in the intestines and bowels. go
A Cascaret tonight will
straighten you out by morning
1o-cent box from any drug
store will keep your stomach
sweet: liver and bowels regular
and head clear for months. Don't
forget the children. They love
Cascarets because they taste
good-do good-never grippe or
observation-disclosures.

Very Much in Earnest.

Those congenial democrats are SO
strongly democratic. and are so aristo-
cratic with it all. that it seems If
their ideal candidate would be a cavalier
Of the seventeenth century. with wiAe
boots and a plume, carrying a sword and
n commission from King Charles.
That is the strongest element of democ-
racy here. On the other hand. the rich
farmers IN the county. with money in the
banks. have been mainly republicans. Also.
the recent additions to Freder .cks popula-
ton care but little about aristocratic de-
mocracy. With considerable disregard for
what happened hundred years ago and
with evident unconcern about family
traditions. they are getting ready TO do

term votes. They consider that Roose-
welt has had but one term.
The statement that the town of Fred
erick is democratic and that the rest of
the county is repub lean, but will vote
the third term ticket. probably may sound
paradOxical. IL is the opinion here
though, that the biggest part of the re-
pub cans will vote for Roosevelt and
still believe that they are in the republic

Local affiliations have something to do
with that, however. l.. G..

whole effect recalling the first act of
Wagner's "Rheingold." was the chief
feature of the most notable social event
Of the week, the Inauguration by the Au-

cent new swimming bath at the former
Hotel Pastoret in the Place de la Con-
corde
While the leading members of the Paris
Opera, Wines, GALL Lapeyrette and Lau-

In Paris, with superb figure. took the
part of the siren with extraordinary
grace. diving with fshlike agility in the
great tank, the surface of which was
strewn with flowers.
Novel Examinations.
The beauty of the effect was further
heightened by the novel Examinations Of
the mosaic bottom of blue tiles, the bath
having six thick glass windows through
which streams of powerful light poured
from as many large electric lamps.
The water which is carefully filtered
before entering the tank. is also ster-
ilized from microbes by lamps which diff
fuse the ultraviolet rays. One OF the
strictest rules of the club Is that no per-
son shall be allowed to enter the water
without first taking the turkish bath,
which is on the premises. 1t is under
stood, however, in view Of the special
circumstances, that an exception was
made in the case of Mile. Deilgny.
An interesting program of swimming
matches completed the function, which
was attended by an unusually aristO-
cratic, but somewhat dampened audience.

Foreign Correspondence Of The Star.

LISBON. October Q, 1912
The critical nature Of the present po-
litical situation is very largely ignored
outside Portugal. Since the suppression
of the last royalist icursion the inter-
nal condition Of the country has very
gravely deteriorated. In outward ap-
pearance peace reigns in Lisbon. Oporto
and other localities. and 1t is the Gus
tom for the inquiring foreigner to be
told by all the authorities "how quiet
the country Is, and how greatly 1t has
benefited by the advent of the republic.
But those who apply to other sources
Of information throughout the country,
particularly in the northern provinces.
and inquire of representatives OF the
commercial and industrial bodies and of
the land-owning and the working
classes, will learn from them the plight
in which Portugal now finds itself.
Complaints Are General.
In the chief towns there is a general
outcry about the decay of commerce,
merchants complain of the slackness OF
business shopkeepers are forced to re-
duce the number of their employees
through lack of customers. numbers OF
the weather. inhabitants have left the
country, and among those who remain a
rigid economy is being practiced- Nor
is there any hope that the moneyed
classes will return while the carbonarlos,
who have made themselves potentates to
be respected in the republic, continue 10
threaten and intimidate all Who are not
of their way of thinking. The lower
classes also are beng driven to emigrate
owing to the general rise in prices and
decrease in openings for employment.
One Distressing Sight.
IT is distressing to see whole families
of peasants from the provinces arriving

embarkation. 1t Is not as If this We're
the natural overflow Of an overpopulatec
country; it is. on the contrary, the de-
parture of people who can Ill DE spared

population than 1t at present supports tol
It's adequate development.
The republicans invariably assert thai
all the ills of Portugal are due to the
maIadministration of the monarchy, ant
there is no doubt that their inheritance
was not all that could be wished. IN
stead, however, of endeavOring to correc
the fatal mistakes made by the self
seeking rotatlvists, and thereby act OF
what they preached to the masses befor'
they came into power. the republicans
are following an the same course as incl

The S the stuff used in making votes
out here
The one safe bet. according to the pro-
fessionai politicians here, is that the
third termer will carry the county. They
lay that aside as one of the eternal veri-
tics. Then, having rid themselves of
that, they go to work hammer and tongs
on the redhOt situation over the judgeship
in Montgomery county and Frederick
county. They think more of that fight
than they do for David Lewis fight
against Charles D. Wagaman. the repub-
lican candidate for seat in Congress.
The election for the judgeship is going to
have in it the bitterest elements Of that
great concoction known as American
politics.
