GETS NEWS SUMMARY
Long Branch, N. J., Nov. 9. At
11 o'clock President Wilson was given
a complete summary of the news to
Mrs. Danner Has
Been Helped Too
Now Both Husband and Wife Are
Enthusiastic Over Master
Medicine
BOTH WERE BENEFITED
"For years and years I had suffered
■with rheumatism," says Mrs. Comfort
Danner, who lives at 1852 Derry St.,
Harrisburg, Pa., "I was full o{ it and
in all that time I was not ablo to find
a single medicine that gave me any
real relief.
"My arms and legs and body wore
full of aches and pains all the time
and often they swelled up and caused
me almost unbearable agony.
"I was miserable, I had no appe
tite and often the pain would wake me
up in the night and I would not be
able to get back to sleep again but
would have to lie there ajid suffer
until daylight, for although I tried the
most powerful drugs I could only get
temporary surcease from my pain.
"Not so long ago my husband began
taking Tanlac and though he urged
me to try it too, I had but little faith
In the efficacy of medicines after so
many disappointments and I said,
•No, Ed, I don't believe it will do me
any good.'
"But when I saw what a wonder
ful change it brought about in his
health I was convinced and I started
taking this wonderful medicine my
self. I never in all my life knew of
such a remarkable medicine. I ex
perienced relief from the vory first
and now all of my aches and pains
have left me and I feel better than
I have for years.
"I have a good appetite, I sleep
well and X do not have to use those
dangerous drugs any more. Tanlac
is certainly a marvelous remedy and I
cannot praise It high enough.
Tanlac, the famous reconstructive
tonic and invigorant is how being in
troduced here at Gorgas' Drug Store,
where the Tanlac man is meeting the
people and explaining the merits of
this master medicine to daily increas
ing crowds.

50 Phone Calls a Minute
For Results of Election
Fifty calls a minute, or almost one
each second, from 7 o'clock yesterday
morning uniil midnight, woro made
by telephone to the offices of city
newspapers, and according to (iguros
given out to-day by the two local
telephone companies, at least 50,000
calls were made by persons who
wanted to get the results of the Presi
dential election returns.
Twenty-five direct lines to these of
fices were kept busy every second of
the day. The hourly average of calls
for the day was 3,125 and the tele
phone companies were compelled to
keep the larger purt of their em
ployes working overtime to handle the
tremendous increase. It is estimated
that the number of calls increased be
tween 55 to 60 per cent, above the
normal number in the city alone.
At the Bell Telephone company to
day it r.-as announced that 85,000 calls
were answered between 7 yesterday
morning and midnight and that 30,000
or more of these culls were made to
the newspapers for election returns.
At the Cumberland Valley Office
a large number of calls were made
also, some of them coming in from
outlying districts. The estimated
number for election returns exceeds
20,000.
To-day the phones were busy
again, but the number of calls did
not reach totals like those of yester
day.

IF THE ELECTION
GOES TO CONGRESS
House Then Will Name a Pres
ident as Was Done in
1801 and 1825
Washington, D. C.. Nov. 9. —In case
there should be a serious controversy
over the election of a President, the
matter may go to Congress. Tho Con
stitution provides that the presidential
electors shall meet in their respective
states and vote by ballot for
and Vice-President. The President of
the Senate opens the certificates of the
electors as tho votes are counted. The
person having the greatest number of
votes for President is declared Presi
dent if such number bo a majority of
the whole number of electors ap
pointed.
If no person has such majority, then I
I from the porson having the highest I
number, not exceeding three, of the
list of thoso voted for as President, the
House of Representatives shall choose
immediately by ballot the President.
In 1801 tho House elected a President
and in 1825 another. In 1837 tho Sen
ate electod a Vice-President.
TakiiiK a Vote
In choosing the President the votes
in the House shall be taken by states,
the representations from each state
having one vote; a quorum for this
purpose shall consist of a member or
members from two-thirds of the states
and a majority of all the states shall
be necessary to a choice.
If tho House of Representatives
should not choose a President when
the right of choice shall devolve upon
it before the fourth day of March next
following, then tho Vice-President
shall act as President. The Senate
selects tho Vice-President in the case
of dispute.
A list of tho names of all the candi
dates for President and Vice-Presi
dent, with the number of votes for
each, Is made by every electoral col
lege. Every member of the college
signs and certifies the list, which is
authenticated by the governor of the
state and then forwarded to the Presl
dent of the United States Senate. The
electoral votes are opened and counted
on the second Wednesday In February
in the presence of members of both
branches or Congress. The result is
announced by the President of the
| Senate.
j If there in no election, the Senate
would proceed to elect a Vice-Presi
dent and the House a President, as
was done in the case of Thomas Jef
| ferson, of Virginia, and Aaron Burr,
|of New York, in 1801, and Andrew
.Tackson, of Tennessee, and John C.
Calhoun, of South Carolina, in 1825.
As It Was in 1525
Tn 1825 the report of the electoral
college showed that Andrew Jackson
had received 99 votes, John Quincv
Adams, of Massachusetts, 84; William
H. Crawford, of Georgia. 41, and
Henry Clay, of Kentucky, 37. The
House and Senate met in joint assem
bly and heard the report of the elec
toral college and the President of the
Senate announced that neither of the
said persons having received a ma
jority of the votes of the electors ap
pointed by the several states to vote
for President of the United States, it
therefore devolved upon the House of
Representatives to choose a President
from the three highest of those on the
list.
, In case the report of the electoral
college shows no election this year, the
House and Senate will meet, receive
the votes and then separate and pro
ceed to elect a President and Vice-
President.
