THE oFFiclous FRIEND.

We are more at the mercy of friend
than of enemy. An enemy finds us
on guard. To friends we show an
amiable and weaker side. For
this cause II Is the lot of some of us
to fall into the hands of dear. devoted
beings who take up our Improvement
as their hobby.

painstaking, declares she has streng

Another type of the ofIicious friend
haunts most of us through life. II Is
she who will put In her oar at every
crisis. When the moving vans are at
the door she calls to cheer you up. Or
worse, when the furniture expected Is

Varied and freakish as are the dem.
enstrations of our oilicious friends, all
have one feature in common. Each
thinks It a plain duty to tell you what
other people say. Compliments re-
peated make you self-conscious. The
adverse criticisms abase, embitter and
annoy.
Let your oiIicious friend lecture
you, manage you, train your children
and change your maids - If you will.
But when she begins to retail what
you really ought to know" stop her.
Or gradually that praise and blame
betrayed will set you In II false rela.

you will find yourself ecstatically
alone, in company with your ofIicious

Siberlich was not on the regular
slate of Taft delegates. Many voters
crossed the name of. Siberlich as well
as the eight others on the ballot
pledged to Taft, thus marking nine
names, invalidating the ballot. On
this ground hundreds Of Taft votes
were thrown out.
Taft managers claim that but for
this the President would have won
the entire list of delegates-at-large.
Colonel Roosevelt decided that the
eight delegates-at-large, although in
structed for him. should cast their
votes for Mr.. Taft at Chicago, as the
President had been victorious In the
preferential voting.
Rooseyelt's followers will ask re
count in the Eighth district, while the
Taft men will do likewise In the
Ninth, on account of the closeness Of
the vote.
It was declared in Washington that
II Roosevelt had insisted upon hold
ing the eight delegates-at-large, two
thirds Of the Illinois delegates, now
committed to the Colonel, would have
deserted him and that others, pledged
to him by popular votes, would have
followed them.
