TABLES SHOWING
RESULTS OF
THE ELECTIONS
Popular and Electoral Votes
for President, the Governors
Chosen and Their PIuraIities,
the Political Complexion OF
the Next Senate and House.

The tabulation of the results or the
election has been made, and 1t is now
possible to get a comprehensive idea
of lust how the various States ballot
ed. The accompanying tables show the
votes for Presidential electors in every
State in the Union, giving the cleo
toral and popular votes for Wilson,
Roosevelt and Taft, and the popular
votes for Debs and Chain. Also the
makeup of the next Senate, and a re-
capitulation of the standing of the next
House. One table shows the Govern
ors elected and their pluralities. An
impressive table shows the Presiden-
tial vote with the Solid South elimi-
mated. Valuable for comparative pur.
poses are the two other tables.

NO MEDICINE
But Change of Food Gave Final Relief.

Most diseases start in the alimen-
tary canal-stomach and bowels.
A great deal of u stomach and
bowel troubles come from eating too
much starchy and greasy food.
The stomach does not digest any
Of the starchy food we eat-white
bread, pastry, potatoes, oats, etc.
these things are digested in the small
intestines. and if we eat too much, as
most Of us do, the organs that should
digest this kind of food are overcome
by excess Of work, so that fermenta-
ton, indigestion, and a long train Of
ails result.
Too much fat also is hard to digest
and this is changed into acids, sour
stomach, belching gas, and a bloated,
heavy feeling.
In these conditions a change from
indigestible foods to Grape-Nuts will
work wonders in not only relieving
the distress but in building up a
strong digestion, clear brain and
steady nerves. A Wash. woman
writes:
About i've years ago I suffered

ton. constipation-caused, l know

greasy food.

and I began to S it. In less than
two weeks l began to feel better and
inside of two months I was a well

SKIN DISEASE ON FACE

cold water. It began as pimples and
indeed it was disfguring, for 1t would
get in spots on my face and hands as
large as a quarter Of q dollar. 1t would
get into blisters sometimes and I cure
did suffer. My face burned all the
time. It was this way SO bad for
about six years and I tried everything
that / could hear Of, but nothing did
any good.

and Ointment advertised and ordered
some at once. I would wash my face
good with the Cuticura Soap and then
apply the Cuticura Ointment and they
have cured me. 1t would take half a

age of orders but capacity to supply

what they ought to do. This has been

concession. The colonists know their

conditions Of the country better than
any ore else can tell them.

stone is dissatisfied with the result of
the primary in that State, and that he
may contest the count with view TO
claiming the nomination over Mr..
Haines, and that Mr.. Morrison is likely

quite in accord with the unrest and

the candidates that are defeated appear

must be confessed that In the Idaho case
the result Of the primary in the way Of
providing satisfactory party candi-

party vote is divided into substantially
three equal parts. Mr.. Haines received
plnralities stated variously at is, 10,
