Gone arc the headquarters; gone the manager; gone the typewriter; gone the , brand new office furniture; gone the big i ' j piles of "convincing literature;" gone i everything; closed down tighter than i wax; quit, left, without a word of fare ! well. This refers to the Independent Rc -1 publican Committee which opened head- I quarters in the Kunkel building along | about the beginning of the recent cain j paign, and with much mystery an ' nounced through its manager in charge, ' J. D. Strain, that it was about to enter • the crusade and would advocate the ' j election of Pinchot and McCormick. To II the Star-Independent reporter, who was . | desirous of obtaining information as to ' i who was backing the movement, this in -1 formation was denied. Thrice did the ■ j reporter in his search for news visit | Mr. Strain, and thrice was he turned . j down. • i Election ilay came and went. There I were results. On Monday the Indepen ' J dent Republican Committee headquar >' ters iu the Kunkel building closed down . | its business and locked its doors. Mr. | Strain departed for Philadelphia, pre- I i sumably to make out that expense ac , | count that is required of all campaign t i managers.

No new casos of the disease were reported to-day. In view of the fact that the disease may infect the dairy herds of the State, thereby causing danger of the transference of the disease from in fested animals to human beings through milk, Dr. Samuel G. Dixon, State Health Commissioner, has issued the following warning: Ihe foot and mouth disease which is known to the medical world as aphthous fever is highly infectious in cattle and manifests itself by a rising temperature and the appearance of blisters on tho mucus membrane of the mouth, tongue and nose. Tho blisters are followed ulcers; digestive dis turbances are also common. Death seldom occurs in human beings. As a matter of protection against the possibility of infection the use of raw milk may bo discontinued. A safe ty factor is to pasteurize the milk. Following is a simple method which may be used. "Place a saueer in a pail seven or eight inches in diameter ami about the same height. Set the milk bottle on this. Remove the paper cap from tho milk bottle. Pour in the pail a suf ficient quantity of luke warm water to half cover the bottle. Watch the water and as soa» as it has boiled twenty minutes, remove the bottle of milk and allow it to cool slowly. Never place the milk immediately upon the ice or the bottle may break. Soal the bottle with a new cap, a supply of which you can obtain from the milk man, and place the milk bottle where it will remain at 40 to 50 degrees | temperature. It must be kept cool end | clean if it is to remain safe for use. "If the milk supply is not received | bottled secure a bottle of the same size and cork after sterilization."
