at the large number Of men who have
called at county headquarters in the
last week, asking what they could do
to help swell the majority.
A careful analysis OF the records
of the men. whose names are printed

sufficient evidence OF the fact that II
is the strongest ticket the party has
offered the voters In years. At the,head
Of the ticket We have a man whose
record in both public and private life
is unblenished. Charles E. Hughes,
who will direct the affairs Of this ma
ton after the fourth day Of next
March. is the candidate OF all the peo-
pie. He did not seek the nomination
FOR president and this fact alone is
suficient evidence that the national
convention at Chicago yielded to the
Will Of a great majority OF the peo-
pie. AS governor Of the gfeat state
OF New York he made q record OF
which any man might well be proud.
I will admit that Immediately follow
ing the passage OF the notorious Adam
son bill, there was slight swing to-
ward Wilson among the laboring men
Of the county. This sentiment in favor

All the worthiness embodied in 'Pom-POm' the latest Henry w Sav

The scenery is delightful, the chorus is well costumed, the singing is great. But there is too much time wasted in getting into the spirit of the thing and after that has been accomplished there is too big a drop into lethargy. ~g Mizzi Hajos is the star in this par -1icular piece and from the moment she steps on the stage until the final curtain she proves the one delight.

Parents Should Know
 this Splendid Remedy
Simple Laxative Compound Helps to Correct C0nsti-
 patton in Children.

With all children there are times when the bowels fail to act naturally and it becomes necessary for the par ents to administer a remedy Cathar- tics and purgatives should never be used as these agents afford only tenn porary relief while their violent action shocks the system unduly. Mrs. Eva F. Calf, 517 10th St., Washington, D.. C., says that her little girl, Marie, had been subject to constipation, and that she found Dr. Caldwall's Syrup Pepsin the best remedy because of it's mild ress, and now always keeps a bottle of it in the house.
 Dr. Caldwelrs Syrup Pepsin is a compound of simple laxative herbs, free from opfates or narcotic drugs of any kind and is an ideal remedy for children because of it's mild action and positive effect. It's use tends to strengthen the impaired bowel action and restore normal regularity.

 comedians on the American stage but
 who in this play is not given the prop
 CT material with which to work. His
 one song is anything but funny, and
 the comedian has to almost work him
 self into a fret to get 'laugh.' This
 should not be so. He has proven bet
 ter on numerous other occasions as,
 for instance, in "The Spring Maid.' It
 is fortunate Mizzi Hajos has a part
 just suited for her versatility and that there are working with her such won
 derful singers as Carl GanVoort and
 Christie Dane, who score in two or three wonderful duets. The music, as
 a, whole, goes better in the concerted
 mum bers there being but one number that is liable to be taken out of the house by the whistling contingent.- that is, "Evelyn,' sung by Mizzi HajOs.
