Why George Washington Was Not
Formally Made President Until
April 80, in 1889.

Although March is the date set by
law for the ceremony of the Inaugural
ton of our presidents. there was one
occasion when the rule wasshot OBJ
served, for George Washington was in
augurated on April 80, 1859, instead of
March 4.
When the Constitution had been
ratified by the requisite number of
states the Continental congress by
resolution of September 13. 17SS. set
the first Wednesday of the following
March (March 4, 1881 as the time
for commencing proceedings" under
the new form of government.
Owing to delays of various kinds,
such as difficulties of travel, ETC., men,
bers of the first congress were very
slow to assemble in New York, and g
quorum of both houses was not OBJ
tanned until April 6. The counting of
the electoral vote. the notification of
Washington of his election to his high
office, and his journey from Mount
Vernon to New York took until April
%, and his Inauguration was set for
April 80.
His term of Office was, however. con.
strued as having commenced on March
4, the date set by the Continental con
gress for the Inauguration of the new
government, and so it came to an end
on March 4, 1853. although it lacked
| nearly two months of the four years
provided for by The Constitution

To be possessed of a head Of heavy
beautiful hair; soft, lustrous, fluffy
wavy and free from dandruff is merely
matter of using a little Danderine.
1t is easy and inexpensive to have
nice, soft hair and lots of it. Just get a
small bottle of Knowlton's Danderine
now-it costs but a few cents-all drug
stores recommend it-apply little as
directed and within ten minutes there
will be an appearance of abundance

will you cannot find trace of dandruff

will be after about two weeks use.

never fails to stop falling hair at once.
If you want to prove how pretty and

with a little Danderine and carefully

Get New Kidneys !

The kidneys are the most .overworked
organs of the human body, and when they
fail in their work of tltering out and
throwing off the poisons developed in the

One of the first warnings is pain or stiff

colored urine; loss of appetite; indiges-

that may lead to that dreaded and fatal
