find that their addition of fireplaces
has made of the seashore cottage the
real thing.

and holly. The Boardwalk is holly

that face the sea are brilliant in tinsel

One hundred and seventy-six species
of insects attack the apple tree, whil.

The Liberty Bell Bird Club of the
Farm Journal says that the destructive
insect invasion is not caused altogether
by the killing of the birds themselves
who would eat the insects, but largely
because the farmer has cut down the

Rowland, Maine -" My little daughter
aged thirteen years was troubled with
eczema on the head. arms and face. Some
of the sores on the head were as large as
penny and one on the inside of the thigh was
as large as a quarter of dollar and that
one lasted over a year. The eczema came
out like little red pimple and spread and
would itch and when scratched of would be
a raw surface and bleed. Then dirty scaly
scab would grow and on the head was the
thickness of thin piece of paste-board.
while on the body it would scale off

Washington, june 26.-At meeting

port was ordered on the Owen stock ex-
change bill for regulation of stock ex-
changes through the postotfce depart
ment. Senator Owen made the report

statement in behalf of Thomas D. Jones
of Chicago. Only seven OF the commit
tee, bare quorum, were present.
In his report Senator Owen gave a
description of the New York Stock Elk
change and deonunced sharply "the evils
of stock exchange manipulation and
gambling through the stock exchange as
a medium"
He dwelt on the great concentration
of money and credits in the hands OF a
few as brought out in the Pujo inves-
tigation; he declared the stock exchange
operations were not even pure gambling
and that the public lost enormously
through them.

Final
ROOSEVELT'S HEALTH
CAUSES CONCERN
Was Unconscious on Liner
for an Hour-Receives
Many Callers

New York. June 26-Colonel Roose-
Welt NAV be drafted to lead the Progress
siye ticket in this state next fall despite
his assertion that he would not be u
candidate, according to a statement made
Yesterday by George w. Perkins, chair
man Of the Progressive national eXeeu-
tive committee. This assertion was
backed by Francis W. Bird, New York
county chairman of the Progressiyes.
Both men had long talks with the for
mer president Wednesday night, when
the entire state political situation was
barred to the colonel.
The desire of Perkins, Bird and other
Progressives to force Roosevelt on the
ticket this fall is apparently prompted
by greater desire to keep District Attor-
ney Whitman, who they feel sure VIII
get the Republican nomination, from OBJ
tanning an Endorsement from the Bull
Moose party. AT present, according to
their own intimations, they do not see
anyone on the political horizon who can
beat Whitman as the choice for the head
of their ticket, except Roosevelt. They
hope to persuade him to change his mind
and make the fight.
81 think the colonel's mind is abso-
lutelv made up" Mr., Perkins said. He
does not want to run and does not in
tend to run. But whether he can act ac-
cordng to that intention is another mat
ter.
II said some time ago that it APP
peared to me that it would be case OF
draft Colonel Roosevelt Ii his name
were placed on the primary ballot and
he were nominated by the Progressive
party. | do not see how he could do 9th.
erwise than rum"
Roosevelt's physical condition is such
that he fears the exertion which would
be required by prolonged political cam
paign of any sort at this time would
seriously affect his health.
That Col. Roosevelt was much more
seriously i'll on his trip across to New
York than his CHEEKY answers to in
auiries about his health indicated was
learned yesterday when the Imperatof
locked. The colonel and his nephew
Philip Roosevelt, left the big liner at
quarantine Wednesday night on the JOY
ance, the steam yacht of Senator Will
| liam II. Childs, and were taken direct to
Oyster Bay. The colonel reached his
home shortly after midnight.
The colonel had two severe attacks Of
fever and chill on board the Imperatol
and on the second day out from port
collapsed under an attack and was I'M
conscious for nearly an hour. He had a
second chill on the fourth day and was
obliged to keep to his cabin with higt
fever During the first part of the voy.
age the colonel was under the almost
constant care of the ships physicians.
After the second attack the colone
seemed to improve wonderfully. He wal
careful of himself and exercised regular
ly. The physicians of the big liner SAID
that the colonel was the most vigorous
patient" they ever had because he wsl
always trying to fight of his illness.

TOO MUCH TANGO
CAUSES NEURALGIA

Violent neuralgia of the head generally
attacks overworked women who lack SUI
ficient sleep, fresh air and red blood.
With the prevalent craze for dancing
at all times and places it is becoming
noticeable that women whose blood Is
n-anamic--become subject to neu-
raIgic pains when they dance too much
and rob themselves OF sleep and open air
exercise.
The woman who makes great demands
on her strength, either by overworking
or overdancing, must keep her blood IN
condition or suffer. The pain of neural
gia is simply sign adopted by nature to
show that the nervous system is being
starved because the blood no longer
brings it what it needs. The one great
cause ofneuralgia is debility with anamia
or bloodlessness.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are tonic
for the blood and nerves. They begin at
once to enrich the blood and enable It to
furnish the nerves with the element they
need to restore them to health. A book
