The open house Of the national
Republican headquarters is The speak
ers' bureau. II Is The melting Dot
where the old and tried campaigner
meets with the young and ambitious
man who is eager TO do his part in the
coming campaign Of education.
What the strenuous campaign Of
1896 was with finance as the dominant
feature, this campaign Of 1916 is with
Americanism and national efficiency.
AS the campaign OF 1896 was crisis
IA our economic life, the present cam
paign is a crisis in our life and posi-
fion as a nation now and In the future.
The speakers bureau is open

It is not pleasant to record the truth that there are mothers, who have sacrificed motherhood to worldly ambition and the most unhappy women on earth are those who have set aside filial ties in order to live lives of social frivolity and the time comes to all such, when the bloom of youth forsakes the cheek, and the fire of youth dies out of the eyes. Such often turn to their homes for sympathy and love. orly to find that they too have vanished with their personal charms, and when it is too late they are unhonored and unloved. The path of duty is the only safe path, let it be ever so thorny. and the only guide board points to the home.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseases portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an intlamed con dition of the mucous lining of the Bus tachian Tube. When this tube is in famed you have a rumbling sound of imperfect hearing, and when it is en- tirely closed, deafness is the rssult, and unless the inflammation can be talk en out and this tube restored to it's nor mai condition, hearing will be de- stroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition or the mucous surfaces.

 FOR SHERIFF
To The Voters Of Nevada Coun-

ty:
 At the strong solicitation of my friends and others, l have de- cided to enter the race for Sheriff of this county, subject to the action of the Democratic primary, March 29.
 l have lived in this county for 35 years and am known and know personally nearly every man in the county. 1 have been engaged in business in Prescott for the past several years, and there is not man that has ever had any bushes transactions with me that can truthfully say that l did not give him square deal. 1 know that our business relations have been pleasant and mutual. have acted on the square with you as a business man and will do so in the capaity of an officer. So much for the business end of this matter.
 You know as well as l do that it is not every man that can make a good officer. He may be splendid citizens in many par ticulars and a rank failure as an officer. 1 believe that on ac- count of my experience in life that am peculiarly fitted for the Sherif's office. 1 am qualiti- ed to make you a good and eff cient officer, both as to the en- forcement of the laws and as to the collection end of the office. If l did not believe this. and if 1 had not received such strong encouragement from all parts of the county, l would not have entered the race.
 1 wish to ask my friends in the various parts of the county to get busy, no man can win without the untiring efforts of his friends. If you will help me to win this race l will promise you my very best will be expend- ed to make you an honest, eff cient Sheriff.

Little Rock, Jan. 25-Few visi- tors at the State house fully appreciate the dimensions of the Capitol building. It is not gen. erally known that it has floor space of fourteen and a half acres, and that it is quarter of mile around it. All the corridor and hail floors are marble. And, notwithstanding the large area that must be kept clean, only ten janitors are employed.
