GAIN IN SIXTEEN STATES FORECAsTED.

DBLAvARE Republicans will be delighted to know
~ that unofficial election returns from Maine show
that compared with the vote in 1916 the Democratic
poll remained practically stationary while the fact that
ballots have been added to the vote figures given
in totals may easily be misleading. But the result IN
Maine accurately forecasts the result in November
throughout the nation the figures studied In pa
ceniages
In the 1916 election President Wilson had in the cleo
oral college 27 votes as compared with POI for the Re
publican candidate a majority Of % for the Demo-
cratic nominee. II the percentage OF Republican
gains registered in the Maine election shall be extended
throughout the nation, the Republicans viii garry six
teen states that carried by President Wilson in 1916
These states win the electoral votes each Of them has

Nebraska g; Nevada 3; New Hampshire, a. North Caro-
lima p: North Dakota. ,; Ohio p; Tennessee Ei uta
Z; Washington, 2; Wyoming 3.
This makes total OF iis electoral votes which VIII
be taken from the Democratic column and added to inc
Republican column il Republican gains throughout th'
nation shall be recorded in he same percentage tha
they recorded in Maine.
This would leave the Democrats i29 electoral votes an'
give the Republicans iO2, majority in the elecora
college OF 273.
This would give the Republicans an even greater vic
tory than was realized in 1901, when Colonel Roosevelt
was elected With 336 votes as against 40 for Alton
Parker
It is apparent therefore, that even II the Republican
should fail to carry OF those states enumera'e
above they would sim have an overwhelming majority

the victory But there were number Of states carried

Hard.RoiIed Ends.

J. Lester Hyman, a farmer near Lo-
ganspOrt says that on Easter morning
he heard one Of his Black Langshan
hens cackle in the hennery on his
farm. He hurried to the place, and
there on the floor lay a nice brown
egg. It was still warm. The man pro-
ceeded to the house to fry the egg for
breakfast.
Giving 1T to his wife, who was at
the stove frying other eggs, he asked
that this fresh one be cooked for him.
On attempting to crack the egg to
place the contents in the skillet it was
found to be hard-boiled. Hyman's
hopes Of having hen that laid hard
boiled eggs were shattered when his
wife remembered that she had just
.placed egg shells taken from boiled
eggs In the hennery and that the hard
Oolled egg found had undoubtedly been
left among acknowledgements News.

British Silver Currency.

Owing to the rise in the price OF sill
yer, the British government finds it
impossible to mint silver coins except
at a great loss, so 1t plans to reduce
the fineness. Silver, which before the
war cost less than 80 pence an ounce,
now costs about 80 pence Irrespective
~ 5000 and $1.76). The British money
has been OOPS fine; it is purposed to
make it O.50O fine in the future. With
silver at present prices, the intrinsic
value Of a shilling O50O fine will be
greater than that Of a shilling 0925
fine before the war.

Friendship Reaches Far.

Friendship is an elastic word, rath-
er. 1t may be stretched to almost any
length and it can be contracted until
1t is unbelievably short and small, says
Margaret E. Sangster, in Christian
Herald. Like any rubber band, friend
ship can. of course, be stretched too
far-stretched to the breaking point.
But it's very hard to stretch the best
sort of friendship so far.
Friendship may be the most elastic
thing in the world. Some people do
not realize the fact, but it can. 1t
can be made to stretch past ambition,
and around pride, and over personal
vanities. 1t can be made to tighten
the darkest pathway, to smooth out
the toughest road. 1t can change al
most Interchangeable circumstanCeS-it
can break almost unbreakable trOu-
bles. 1t can be, after all, one Of the
most beautiful things In the world.

GLORIOUS IMAGE OF BUDDHA
IcoI in the Llama City, Is WorshiFed
by DeVotees With Almost
Insane Devotion.

An SO-foot wooden image Of Buddha
standing on a golden lotus flower with
in a sacred temple in "The Lama
City" reserved for residences of Mon
gOlian priests, is worshiped with all
the insane devotion possible by the
MOngOlians. The great figure is heav-
lily gilded, incrusted with precious
stones, and draped with silken cloths.
When the temple is opened to the
faithful of the city Of Urga a priest
at the entrance gives each person
few drops Of holy water from filthy
jug. and the people, silent with awe,
battle their faces with the fluid and
PROSTATE themselves before the statue,
whose head is lost in the shadows Of
the temple roof. They kiss its silken
draperies, sOiled by the lips of thou
sands, and each one gathers a hand
full of sacred dirt from the temple
floor
From inches in the wall hundreds
Of tiny Buddhas gaze impassively on
tI.c wOrshiping MOngOls. The scene of
worship is described by Roy Chapman
Andrews in Harper's Magazine as one
Intoxicating in its barbaric SpleIrdOr."
The chorus of prayers which rise and
fall in a meaningless half wild chant
are broken by the clash of cymbals
and the boom of snakeskin drums, and
one is fully able to understand the
religious fanaticism of the East when
the people are seen at prayer in one
Of these temples.

animal painter. She says Sir Edwin
was delightful company and that he
told the children many stories of an

huge canvaSes. 81 remember" she
says, "his telling US an anecdote of
one of his dogs. He was In the habit
of taking him out every day when his
work was over. The dog used to wait
patiently all day long while Sir Edwin
was painting, butShe used to come and
lie down at his feet and look up in his
face toward FIVE o'clock, and on one
occasion finding that no notice was
taken of his hints he trOtted into the
hall and came back with the painters
hat, which he laid at his feet"
