Joyful Anticipation
Of Motherhood

There is apt to be latent apprehension
of distress to mar the complete Joy of
expectation. But this is quite overcome
by the advice of so many women to use
Mothers Friend" This is an external
application designed to so lubricate the
muscles and to thus so relieve the pres
sure reacting on the nerves, that the
natural strain upon the cords and liga-
ments is not accompanied by those severe
pains said to cause nausea, morning sick
ness and many local distresses. This
splendid embrocation is known to multi
tude of mothers.
Many people believe that those remedies
which have stood the test of time, that
have been put to every trial under the
varying conditions of age, weight. general
health ETC., may be safely relied upon.
And judging by the fact that Mothers
FRIEND has been in continual use since
our grandmother's earlier years and is
known throughout the United States 1t
may be easily inferred that it is some-
thing that women talk about and gladly
recommend to prospective mothers.

BATTLE Of NIAGARA

AND CANADIANS CO.
OPERATE IN CENTENARY
OF FIGHT

Niagara Falls, Ontario, July 25.-
Americans and Canadians joined to-
day in commemoration of the battle
of Lundy's Lane, which was fought
100 years ago today within earshot of
the roar of Niagara Falls, and which
has been called by some historians
the battle of Niagara Falls.
The centennial exercises were held
on the battle-ground this afternoon.
Military, patriotic and historical so
cieties were largely represented The
program included addresses by repre-
sentatives of both Canada and the
United States. An exhibition of relics
of the battle and the decoration of
the monuments and tombs that dot
the battle-ground were also included
IT. the celebration.
The battle of Lundys Lane was
the most sanguinary and stubbornly
contested engagement fought on Ca
madam soil during the war of 1872.
After the battle of Chippewa, which
occurred on July 5, 1914, both the
Americans and British received rein
forcements. The American army un-
der General Brown moved toward
Lundy's Lane, a mile below Niagara
Falls. The Americans camped almost
within sight of the British, who were
under the command of Sir Gordon
Drummond and General Riall
The battle began about sunset on
July %. The British had taken up a
strong position at the head of the
narrow road called Lundy's Lane, and
from this the American troops tried
to dislodge them. The battle lasted
till midnight, and was the hardest
fought of the whole war The defend
ers of Canada fought with desperation
and, although outnumbered, they held
their position against repeated as
saults.
Colonel Winfield Scott, who later
was to command the American army
in the war with Mexico, was one of
those who won distinction in the bat.

lean battalion he led his main column
through into the British rear. and
General Riall was taken prisoner
Colonel Scott had two horses shot
from under him and was himself Sc

and both claimed victory, but the
American invasion was stopped and

opposing both Foraker and Harding.

opposing both ForaKer and HARDING.
The rival candidates. of Foraker and
Harding have brought about a situa-
ton that even the most astute politi-
clans find it difficult to dope" out.
Harding has always been a close poll
tical and personal friends of former
Senator Foraker, and stood by the SEN
ator when it was proposed to retire
him in order to send Mr.. Burton to the
TIE senates tx years ago. A strong di-
vision of opinion exists as to the re
suits of this close relationship on the
senatorial contest. Because Harding
stands well with Foraker supporters
throughout the state, many persons
take the view that his candidacy is
bound to cut in heavily on the Foraker
strength. On the other hand, there
are many persons who seem to give
eIedenee to the charge of former Con-
gressman Cole that Harding is merely
acting as stalking horse for Foraker.
The situation in regards to the DEM
ocratic senatorial contest has been
simplified by the appointment of John
H Clarke to be federal Judge to sue
ceed William L. Day, resigned. Clarke
a prominent attorney, was considered
the strongest entry in the democratic
race for the senatorship His with
drawal has left the contest between
Timothy S, Hogan, now attorney gen.
eral of the state, and former Con-
gressman John H. Lentz of Columbus.
There is third candidate-John L.
Zimmerman, a wealthy manufacturer
of Springfield-but he is not looked
upon as likely to be nominated. AS
between Hogan and Lentz the chances
would seem to be in favor of Hogan,
unless the anti-Catholic sentiment,
which is reported to be growing again
in the state, should prove to be more
potent than it seems to be now.
Six months ago it appeared that
Governor Cox would be renominated
to head head the democratic state
ticket. The friends of the governor
declare that his denomination is still
certainty, though they generally ad-
nit that the opposition is more formi-
dable than they had anticipated.
Congressman John J. Whiteacre,
who is leading the democratic opposi-
ton to the denomination of Governor
Cox, filed petitions bearing only a few
more names than required by law to
secure the admission of his name to
the primary election ballot, but his
friends claim that he really had over
cne hundred thousand signatures to

CANDIDATES BEING BOILED DOWN
IN SETTLING CAlDRoN OF
OPINION

Columbus, o., July 25.-Politics in
the Buckeye state have now reached the
boiling point. Though the state pri-
mary election is only two weeks off,
much uncertainty still hangs over the
nominations for United States senators
on both the republican and democratic
sides.
On the republican side it is apparent
that the state organization is support
ing former Lieutenant Governor War
ren G. Harding for senator, former
State Senator David Tod of Youngs-
town for governor, Albert H. Morrill,
of Cincinnati for lieutenant governor,
and Charles A. Reid, now republican
floor leader in the house, for secretary
OF state. There is general feeling
that Harding will win the senatorial
nomination, but Congressman Frank
r. Willis, who is opposing Tod for the
gcvernorship, is proving so strong
among the rural republicans that he
may break the organizations "slate"
and win that nomination.
Former Senator Foraker's friends,
however. are as confident as they are
loyal to him and are claiming his no
mination as certain. Former Congress
man Ralph D. Cole Of Findlay, the
third candidate for the republican no
mination for senator, is still bitterly

TODAY MARKS THE CENTURY
POINT OF THE STEAM
LOCOMOTIVE

One hundred years ago today the
first locomotive in the world to sue
cessfully haul load of freight upon
rails made it's maiden trip. Invented
by George Stephenson, the Father
of Locomotives, it made its first run
at Killingworth colliery in England.
It had so many rods and cranks
strapped to it's boiler that it had the
appearance of a huge grasshopper.
1t weighed about six tons A pair of
walking beams" resembling those of
a modern side wheel steamer. turned
the four wheels. There being no cab
the engineer had to stand while the
engine was in operation. 1t pulled
eight loaded cars, which aggregated a
wei~ht of 80 tons, up track that had
grade of one foot in an eighth of a
mile The test was a grand" success,
the engine running about six miles an
hour. The first locomotive to draw a
train of cars in the United States
made its experimental trip in the
Lackawanna coal district IS years
later This locomotive also was the
product of Stephenson. 1t was called
the Stourbridge Lion, after the place
o. its manufacture in England. It's
A pnnr.ioop ap0ipaar UIo--+fo A1Io, r,o
the engine over track of hemlock
rails for preliminary test. Then he
invited any gentleman in the gather
ing of spectators to accompany him.
His invitation was not only refused
but he was urged to give up his fool
hardy ambition. Laughing at his ad-
visers he pulled the throttle wide and
dashed" away at ten miles an hour.
Today over $4,000 locomotives are
in motion over the 250,OO0 miles of
trackage in the United States. They
consume about 150,000,O00 tons of
coal and carry over a billion passen-
gers and 1,S00.O00,OOO tons of freight
annually. After adopting the English
born child of civilization, the United
States took the lead in its develop
ment and application until today it
stands as the worlds greatest manu-
facturer of locomotives. Besides max
ing enough to meet the domestic de-
mand the American manufacturers
are shipping locomotives abroad at
the rate of dozen week. They are
laundering through the mountains of
South America and over the plains
and valleys of Africa; they are dis
turbing the calm Of the Orient, and
are dashing from one end of Europe
to the other; they have invaded the
land of the locomotives birth, Eng
land, and are in use upon its princi-
pal railways. Like the steamship. the
locomotive is growing larger and
more powerful every year. The larg-
est reported to be in use today is a
huge compound engine which meas
ures 120 feet over all and weighs $780,
600 pounds. 1t is an oil burner and
carries 1000 gallons of oil and 10000
gallons of water. 1t cost $43,SS0 to
build. These giants have reached
point where one locomotive is so long
that it is hinged in the middle with
a flexible joint so that it can turn
curve without upsetting. Thus the
locomotive has become the modern
"Atlas that carries the burden Of the
worlds trade and population across
the continents.
