GOODS ON APPROVAL.
Little Talks on Health and Hygiene by
Samuel G. Dixon, NJ. D., IL. D.,
Commissioner Of Health.

1t is the custom with many
firms to, send certain classes of
goods to their customers homes
on approval. If they are not sat-
isfactory, the prospective pur-
chaser has the privilege of ex-
changing them. Obviously it is
impossible for the salesman to
know what conditions are in the
house where such goods go, who
handles them, and how they are
tried or examined. The posi-
bility Of spreading communicable
disease is very real.
When new things go into a
home, curiosity and interest is
naturally aroused in all the mem
bers of the family. Children and
adults join in the examination.
Of course where there are cas-
es of communicable diseases
which have been reported and
quarantined, no goods are deliv-
cred on approval. There are Oft
ten cases of disease, however, in
the early stages unrecognized or
so mild in form as to make it
seem unnecessary to call a ply
sician. Into these homes mer-
chandise is delivered without
question.
Modern salesmanship is far re-
moved from the sharp barter of
earlier days and fair dealing and
honest representation are recog-
nized as necessary foundations
for success.
Sending goods on approval,
however, is carrying things so
far that it may result in harm to
the purchaser.

WENT OFF ROAD IN AUTO
Mr.. w. G. Hinebaugh and Party
Had Narrow Escape Last
Thursday Night.

Last Thursday night Mr.. William g.
Hinebaugb, of Oakland, driving his
Saxon car from Cumberland, where he
had been in company with Mrs. Hine-
baugh and two little daughters and
Mrs. Louis Walters, had a narrow
escape from more or less serious injury
when the car left the road just north of
McHenry on Commissary Hill during
terrific thunder storm and went down in
the woods quite distance where the
machine turned on its side, throwing the
occupants out but fortunately all escap-
ed without even a bruise and the car
without a scratch aside from slight
damage to one fender.
Mr.. Hinebaugh. who was driving, was
blinded by bright flash of lightning
just as curve was reached and before
he recovered his vision the car was off
the road as above stated. The machine
was brought into Oakland the same
night under its own steam.

MIR. Hughes Visit to Maryland.

Thefpeople of Maryland, and particu-
larly the politicians, both Democrats
and Republicans. are looking forward
with a great deal Of interest to the
visit of the Republican candidate for
President of the United States, Hon.
Charles Evans Hughes next week. Mr..
Hughes will spend but one day in
Mary land, and that day will be Tues
day, October 10th.
Mr.. Hughes will make but two speech
es in Maryland. The first will be at
Elkton, where his train will stop but
few minutes. At Elkton the meeting
will be addressed also by DR.. Joseph
Irwin France, candidate for United
States Senator and Hon. Robert F.
Duer, candidate for congress, in the
first Congressional district.
Mr.. Hughes utterances in his cam
paign speeches have been so forceful
and SO direct that 1t is now conceded he
Is one Of the most effective campaign
orators in the history of the country.
Both in his speeches and in his pri-
vate life Mr.. Hughes is as intensely
human as Roosevelt, and is thought by
many to be even more cordial in his
treatment Of those who are not his
most intimate political associates. But
it is about his official character that the
people are most concerned. 1t is stat
ed that throughout his professional life
he never would accept a general retain
er, and would never put himself in a
| position where he would even profess
sionally be obliged to present an argu-
ment in the court which was not back,
ed by his real conviction. Further
more, 1t is conceded even by his most
critical enemies that in official life as
Governor of New York he was never
swerved by considerations of political
or personal expediency. and that in his
| judicial career his opinions were based
wholly and absolutely upon the logical
and necessary Interpretation of the
| Law.
In fact he is one of the few men who
have reached great prominence in
American politics whose record has not
at sometime been marred by very EVIL
dent show of ambition.
The Baltimore meeting will be at 8:15
O clock, IN the evening at the Fifth
Regiment Armory and it is expected
that the attendance from the City and
from all portions of the State will be
large. This is one of the largest build
ings of the kind in the United States,
but it will be so arranged that every
person in the audience will be able to
hear practically every word of the
Hughes speech.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1916-10-05
REGISTER TUESDAY.

Republicans will have but one more
opportunity to get their name on the
registration books so that they may
vote at the election in November Final
registration day will be Tuesday, Octo-
Der TO- and Republican committeeman
will make vigorous efforts to have all
those who have not yet qualified to cast
their ballot Go so on this day.
From all indications this rock ribbed
Republican district is going to out-do
itself in November and national as well
as state party leaders are looking to
this section of Maryland for one of the
heaviest Republican Majorities in years.
To bring this about it is desired that
every voter who believes in Republican
principles. and proponents of those
principles be able to express his belief
at the polls November 4.
Under direction of Senator +. N.
Zihlman, candidate for congress from
this district, registration day is being
earnestly brought to the attention of
Garrett Republicans and few of those
qualified will fail to get their names on
the poll lists before the registration
officers close next Tuesday evening.
Senator Zihlman has just returned to
his home in Cumberland after a week s
campaign in Frederick county. He will
devote the entire week, helping in the
work of registration and with his aides,
will then concentrate his energy on the
big Republican rally to be held at the
Maryland Theatre, Cumberland, Octo-
Der II.
Senator Warren G. Harding, OF Ohio,
one of the foremost orators of the Re-
publican party, presidential possibility
at the last convention, at which he
sounded the keynote of the campaign,
will make the principal address. Senator
Zihlman and DR.. Jos. France will also
address the meeting.
The Republican county committee is
planning to make the rally hummer,
every band in the county having been
engaged, free trains will be run from
the Creek region and Republican
enthusiasm will be ebullient
