A faction of the Democratic party is
already at work to eliminate Wilson from
the presidential possibilities of 1916, and
Bryan, who is expected to leave the cab

field and has declared for national pro-
hibition and woman suffrage. The presi-

Tending his administration limited at
Democratic disatfection and appealed to
the independent vote. Of course, the
f act that the platform on which Presi-
dent Wilson was elected called for one
term for the president has no weight,
any more than the free tolls, which Mr..
Wilson advocated in his campaign
speeches but opposed and defeated after
he was elected.

The Senate has rejected four of Presi-

legislative branch of the government,
which since the Inauguration of Presi-
dent Wilson had been dominated by the
executive, is asserting itself.

Among the youngsters who paraded
ut the recent baby carnival at Asbury
Park was one who caused u great deal
of merriment. He is a son of one Of
the members of the fishing club of that
city and marched as its mascot. As
the picture shows. he Is fully equipped
to capture anything In the way of fish
that has the temerity to bite his hook.
Probably IL he hooked a big one he
might be a little frightened and look
for some grownup to take it of the
hook. But that is only supposing.
Boys at Asbury Park are used to 6sh
and fishing. and in all probability the
lad here pictured would quickly pop
the big fellow right into his creel.
Fishing is great sport IL the fish bite.
but it is rather tires0me when one
waits for hours without even a nibble.
Little boys. however. should never go
fishing unless accompanied by their
fathers or big brothers.

u. S. EXPERTS FIND
NEW ~DISINFECTANT
Made Of Pine Oil. Cheap. Harm
less and Stronger Than
CarbOlic Acid.

WAsHINGToN. Oct. s.-The United
States Public Health Service
that as a result of experiments con-
Quoted In Its laboratory a new disinfec-
tant has been discovered possessing
qualities superior to ordinary dislnfec-
tants, and that this discovery is pa
ticularly important now because OF the
shortage In coal tar derivatives as a
result of the European conflict. The
bulletin says:
The new preparation il derived from
pine oil. a by-product In the manufac-
ture of t%urpentine. II Is easily prepared
by mixing certain proportions OF the oil
with rosin and sodium hydroNide soiu-
ton, the finished product being a red
dish brown liquid. rather thick and oily
in appearance. hui free from turb!dity.
with water IL makes a perfectly white
emulsion. much resembling milk.
1T has "a pleasing odor, no objection
able taste and attacks neither fabrics
nor metals. II possesses over four times
the disinfectant properties Of carbol.c
acid and is almost non-toXic. so that II
may safely be used as a throat spray
or mouth wash in solutions of the ordi-
nary strength.
The cost " the preparation is re-
markably low. as II can be manufactured
FOR less than 30 cents a gallon, solely
from products of this country"
