TO THE REPUBLICAN ELECTORS OF PENNSYLVANIA. lam directed by the Republican State Com mittee to announce that the Republicans of Pennsylvania, by their duly chosen representa tives, will meet in convention at the Lyceum tueatre in the city of Harrisburg, on Wednesday, June 6, r.H)6 t at 10:.a. in., for the purpose of tiominating candidates for the following offices, vi It One person for the office of Governor; One person for the office of Lieutenant-Oover- One person for the office of Auditor-General. One person for the office of Secretary of Inter nal Affairs; and for the transaction of such other business as may be presented. In accordance with the rules governing the party, the representation in the State Conven tion will be based upon the vote polled at tho last Presidential election. Under the rules each legislative district is intitled to one delegate for each two thousand votes cast for Republican electors in 1904, and an additional delegate for evesy fraction of two thousand votes polled in excess of one thousand. By order ofthe State Committee, W. R. ANDREWS, Chairman. The Accounts of Candidates. The blanks which the State Depart racnt at Harrisburg has prepared to fiend to candidates and treasurers of po litical committees under the new cor rupt practices act, show quite distinct ly the far reaching character of that law. They should serve as a complete guide to all whose actions they cover, says Philadelphia Press. There are four sets of these blanks, two for candidates and two for party treasurers. All expenditures exceed ing §SO must be accounted for by both candidates and treasurers, and no one else is allowed to handle campaign money. The first blank is the one on which the treasurer makes his report, and must be sworn to by him. He must give a detailed account of the re ceipts, expenditures, disbursements and unpaid accounts and obligations of the committee or person for whom he ip acting as treasurer, and of every Other officer or other person acting in behalf or with the authority of such committee or candidate. The amount received, when and from whom re ceived, must be given; also to whom the maney was paid, for what purpose it was paid, and the amount Follow ing this must be a statement of unpaid debts and obligations, to whem owing, for what purpose, when incurred and the amount. Accompanying this is a second blank,covering similar items of receipts and expenditures on which the candidate must make his sworn statement. The third blank is to be filled out by the party treasurer or candidate where the amount expended does not exceed §SO, and not requiring any statement as to where the money came from or for what purpose it was disbursed. There quirement of this blank merely is a sworn statement that not more than SSO wit received or expended A fourth blank, precisely similar, is to be filled in !>> tliw candidate. These state ments in ih»- (vise of candidates to be voted for bv the electors of the State at larg ■ » ■ to be died with tne Secre tary of tne Commonwea.th, and the ac counts concerning the expenses by or in behalf of candinates for other officers are to be filed with the clerks of the Courts of Quarter Sessions of the sev eral counties where such candidates re spectively reside, but in districts com posed of more than one county the accounts shall be filled in each county in which the candidate is voted for. No candidate elected can take office unless he files such account as the act requires. These blanks are to be sent to the County Commissi! ners for distribution to district and county candidates, and every one who expects to be a candi date for uominaiion to any office what soever should promptly provide him .sell with a set of them. They serve to illuminate the new law and will do more than anything else to keep a candidate straight. Catarrh Cannot be Cured. With LOCAL APPLICATIONS, as they cannot reach tho seat of the dis ease.

Etlitor Cameron County Press: I wish to acknowledge very grate fully the words of encouragement fre quently expressed by our county news papers concerning the work I have been endeavoring to do the past forty years as Missioner of the American S. S. Union and American Bible Society in N. C. Pa. These kindly and timely notices have often opened tho way for my humble services in behalf of the little children and other people in rural communities where the bible school is the only regular religious meeting. Reports are constantly coming to me showing tho good results that gladden the hearts of all who kindly give their helpful co-operation. I can name many churches that easily trace their beginning to Union Sunday Schools I helped toorganize and sustain. Thirty years ago very few if any county Sun day schools repeated Scripture respon sively or the Lord's prayer in concert. Now they all do so. Good people of every name are now working together in unity more closely than ever. The day is gono never to return for the tolerance of anything narrow or selfish in any sort of religion whatsoever. With tho coming of the Kingdom of God "will be the manifest answer of our Lord's last prayer for Christian believers"that they all may be one that the world may believe that thou hast sent me." R. CRITTENDEN, Missioner. The American S. S. Union and Amor can Bible Society for N. C. Pa. Bellefonte, Pa. TAGGART. Simply Way to Cure Catarrh by Hy omei Without Stomach Dosing. It is the height of folly to dose the stomach with internal medicines to cure nasal catarrh. It cannot be cured except the catarrhal germs that are preeent in the nose, throat and lungs have first been kiiled. Direct local treatment by breathing Hyomei through the pocket inhaler that comes with every outfit, is absolutely necessary to kill the catarrhal germs and prevent their growth and formation. The soothing air of Ilyornei heals tho smarting and raw membrane of the air passages in the nose, throat and lungs, kills oft the catarrhal germs and rids the system of the last traces of catarrh. The complete Hyomei outfit consists of a hard rubber inhaler which can be carried in the pur.se or vest pocket, a medicine dropper, and a bottle of Hy omei, and costs only one dollar, while extra bottle.i can be obtained for 50 cents. L. Taggart positively guarntees a cure when Hyomi is used in accordance with the simple directions on the package, or he will refund the money. This cer tainly shows their faith and belief in the virtues of Hyomei. There would be no such a thing as a silent tomb if women had their way. Letter to B. W.tireen. Eviporium, Pa.

About the middle of the seventeenth century Isaac de la i'eyrere, In an odd little volume entitled "Tlie I're-Adain ites," attempted to prove that there were two creations of men the tlrst 011 the sixth day of the week of creation, when "<Jod created man male and fe male." The rabbis Interpret the above passage of holy writ as meaning that the first race of human beings were creatures in which both sexes were united in the same individual. Accord ing to De la I'eyrere, Adam was the re sult of the second creation, the "male and female" being having been the pro genitor of the gentiles, Adam the fa ther of the Jews. A great many peo ple fell in with the views of De la Pey rere, and lie was tin? lion of the hour. His followers were called "Pre-Adam ites," and they increased in numbers rapidly until finally the movement be came so strong that the founder of the sect was compelled togo to Rome and abjure his doctrine at the feet of Pope Alexander VII. Savagea anil Siiu(T. The habit of snuff taking has been confirmed among savage tribes for ages past. 1M South Africa it is used among Swazis, Basutos and Matabeles. Every Zulu today, even in towns, car ries a little square box suspended around his neck by a piece of string or gut, aud the snuff spoon (for they do not indulge in the homely "pinch"), carved out of sheep's bone, often or nameuted with intricate geometrical designs and for convenience carried hanging downward through a slit in the lobe of the ear. The Zulu regards the lobe of his ear as a useful recep table for various small articles lie meets with. The umfaan, or house boy, universally inot with in Natal, has a penchant for safety pins, which have to be carefully hidden from his sharp eyes. Even then he is usually to be seen, after going through the rooms, with a string of these pins suspended from each ear until they reach his shoulders. Neckties an Italhray Slftnnls. "Red neckties are always worn by foreign brakemen and conductors. Ev er notice it?" said a railroader. "No. Why is it?" "As a safety device," was the reply. "These red neckties that flash upon your gaze 011 the railroads of Italy, France, Germany and England are not a sign that the people have a gay taste, but that they are cautious and prudent. "The neckties are supplied free by the railroad companies for use as dan ger signals in emergency. Thus, no matter when or where an accident may happen, there is 110 need to search or scramble for a red flag, but the brake man whips off his red necktie and waves it frantically aloft."—Minneap olis Journal. Kentucky's \nllles. Kentucky is known as the Corn Cracker State from a game bird en joying the same name which was for merly found In great abundance in most parts of the state. It is also called the Blue Grass State, from the belt of land running through the cen ter, in which this variety of grass grows to great perfection. 111 tlie early days of our history it was known as the Dark and Bloody Ground, being so termed by the Indians. It was then a debatable laud between the Indians living north of the Ohio and those living in the mountains of Tennessee and Georgia, a sort of battleground for these tribes, which fact gave it the name long before it was settled by the whites. IManels With Three SUIIM. The people inhabiting the planets in tlie solar system of Gamma have 110 need of electricity, gas, oil or other kind of artificial light. In those fa vored worlds they have continuous daylight and probably have 110 idea of a land like ours which is alternately bathed in sunlight and plunged into darkness.

I'rlce and 1 mnslnntioii. Housewives are apt to judge the quality of groceries by the price paid for them. As an illustration of this 11 grocer tells the following story: "I had two qualities of flour—one fine and the other poor. One day I accidentally sold one for the other. My customers, who paid a high price for the poor quality, said that it had given entire satisfaction, while those who had re ceived the fine Hour for a low price complained of it, and a few returned it as unfit for use."
