On September s. But That Is
So Close To Registration Day
For Various Counties
STATE AND OTHER
OFFICES TO BE FILLED

The fact that the counties of the
State are required TO hold registra-
tion Teusday, September 6. may
cause a change TO be made in the date
of the primary election practically
agreed upon Saturday by DR.. j. Hub
ert Wade. chairman of the Demo-
cratic State Central Committee, and
Galen L. TAFT. chairman of the Re
publican State Central Committee
The intervening time between dates
would be too short
Thursday. September s, was the
day agreed upon for the primary but
the law governing elections provides
that the registration shall be held on
the Tuesday before primary. No
registration will be held in Balti-
in all of the counties.
Mr. TAFT declared the date had not
been absolutely settled. and that they
might discuss the question before the
Supervisors of Elections in the coun-
ties are informed of the date. He
said Dr. Wade had written to him
suggesting several dates, and that he
had chosen September s.
DR. Wade said he did not think it
would be impossible to have the regis
tration Tuesday and the election
Thursday. declaring that the interval
of one day should be sufficient He
said, however. that he had not given
this matter consideration when sug
gesting dates, and that he might dis
cuss the problem with Mr.. TAFT before
the letters were sent TO the Super
visors OF Elections.

 Uncle Parker" as he Is more famil- iarly known, came from fine old rug ged Quaker stock, and there is not a better known or more highly respect ed citizen in that part of the state. In referring to his remarkable res toration to health by Tanlac. he said {:
 About i've years ago l suffered general breakdown. My principal trouble was nervous indigestion. My appetite was very poor and my food seldom agreed with me, and had to live on n very restricted diet. l suf- fered great deal from headaches und dizzy spells; had severe pains across the small of my back and was badly constipated most of the time. In fact, I was so weak and rundown I was not able to attend to my duties
 This condition made me very nerv- ous and I could not sleep at night Frequently I would lie awake most all night and was in that condition more or less for five years. My phy- siclan said he could rot do anything for me and suggested change of
