OUB FIRST ELECTION Methods in the Days When Washing ton Was Chosen President At the first national election at which General Washington was chosen President only eleven of the thirteen States voted. North Carolina and Rhode' Island not yet having entered the Union, and ia only three —Pennsylva- nia. Maryland and Virginia—were pop ular elections held. In the other eight States the Legislatures chose the elec tors. New York did not chose the elec tors because of a feud between the anti- Federalist House and the Federalist Senate. One exciting incident was caused by the fear on the part of Alexander Ham ilton and John Adams, who wae on the ticket for Vice President with Washington, was plotting to tie the vote, and thus by throwing the elec tion into the national house of repre sentatives defeat the Father of His Country for President. So real was this fear in Hamilton that he dis patched messengers on horses to Vir ginia, Connecticut and New Jersey to stampede the I-egislatures of the latter two States to Washington. So long did it tas?* to gather news that Washington was actually inaugu rated President before some of the remote counties in Virginia had sent in their returns. In this first election there was only one ticket and there was no campaigning. There were only about 3,000,000 inhabitants in the country »t that time, and the whole cost of setting up the machinery of this presidential election it estimated at less than sloo.ooo.—Pittsburgh Dispatch. VIRTUE OF AN APPLE At One Time the Fruit Was Called the "Food of the Gods The apple ha* become so familiar a* the commonest ot all fruits that it# \alue as man's greatest friend in the vegetable kingdom mav not be fullv realized. It was called the "food of the gods" because it was believed to be the magic renewer of youth to which ftie gods resorted when thev felt themselves growing oi>l and feeble. There have been many mystic tradi tions about the apple, which has been credited with varied potency. It is the healing fruit of the Arabian tales, chronicles and institutes and *arly English poems contain many ref erences to it. Scientific analvsis of late years has justified all the "ancient glorification of this fruit, which has l>ee« found to contain albumen, sugar, gum. malic acid, gallic acid, fiber, water and phosphorus. Malic acid of aipples neutralizes the excess of chalkv matter caused by too mush meat and thereby helps to keep ns young. Apples are good for the complexion, as their acids drive out the noxious matters which cause skin eruptions. Thcv are good for the brain, which those same noxious mat ters. if retained, render sluggish. The *cids of the apple diminish the acidity of the stomach that comes with same l'orms of indigestion. The phosphorus, of whioh apples con tain a larger per cent, than any other fruit or vegetable, renews the essential matter of the brain and spinal col umn.—Boston Herald.

The plain truth is that there are thousands v of men and women in this i country whose stomachs are dead or dy ing from lack of exercise while they : themselves still live. They can t go on this war much longer. It s wonderful to think that powerful drugs compressed in a pill will-even for a little while do the work of a human stomach. But no l pill was ever made that could do it for 1 long. t A dead stomach can't be brought to life but a slowly dying stomach can and must or its owner, must soon follow. Years ago a famous physician wrote the prescription for Mi-o-na Stomach Tablets and thousands their very life to them to-day. Most stomach rem edies work on the food and digest it. Mi-o-na works oiMhe stomach and di gests nothiug. Mi-o-na Tablets strengthen the stomach walls, stimulate the stomach muscles and vitalize the stomach machinery into instant and normal action.

The creeping improvement in volume is being sustained ami in spite of the small part eoutritouted by the I railroads, aud in fact because of it, the | trade is optimistic of the future. It seems clear that the higiier prices be ing asked for uew orders of steel for the next few mouths will be strongly held. Tlhe usual argument may be advanced that not enough can be at tracted by price declines and it is oe lieved that should a break occur, prices will go below those of last December. A stabilizing influence is that contracts were driven iu at current {rices for the second quarter prior to the la-te a«l --•vances. This is not to say that the structural market for one think is vet strong or that lower than ruling prices are not made to-day for plates, but t'hese are uot apparently of sulhvieut influence to affect the general status. The spectacular event has been the rise iu prices of galvanized steel and iron pipe of $6 and $4 a tou respec tively, and iu galvanized sheets of )5, because of the exvoptionally high price of spelter, zinc blende in Missouri hav ing reached a record price. There is a growing feeling that scarcity rather than manipulation explains the spelter prices and the prices for the galvanized products are therefore likWy to hold. The wage question in some shot and tin •plate plants is not yet settled, and meanwhile these mills are down, but with stocks on hand to take care of the demaud for some time. Uneasiness is developing over the supplies of terromangauese. The volume of stocks is indefinite as is also the possibility of domestic selling of the alloy. tMeanwhile it has developed that holders of English contracts at ante-bellum j rices of S3B are being ap proached with the suggestion that em bargoes may be lifted in the event that current prices of S6B are paid for the shipments, thus protecting the sellers against the high ocean freights. The estimated importation of the alloy in 1914 was 4 0 per cent, less than in 1913, and 25 per cent, less of the manganese ore came to this country in 1914 than iu 1913. In fact mii.'ii of the reduction of importations in iron ami steel products in Dei-ember is due to smaller shipments uf ferromanganese. The pig-iron business has not enjoyed any large sales, but it is looking upward and not a little encouragement is taken amoug merchant furnaces in the divid ed improvement iu machinery building circles. The last few weeks has seen a growing demand for machinery inde pendent of the larger buying attribu table to the war account. Foreign business continues. Besides the sale of billets noted in our cable reports this week, other business in bil lets has been done with Scotland at profitable prices to the mills. Where the shipments are not large, no great diffi culty is encountered in securing bot toms. The structural market has passed through a Icon week. Much of the busi ness being figured is for .public build ings, municipal railroads and other pro jects paid for directly by the taxpayer, but circumstantial and confident reports are coming iu regarding private enter prises which will soon eonie before the trade. The report of the Bridge Build ers and Strwtu.al Society shows how niunh an improvement in the fabricat ing line i? desired, the business written in January amounting to no more than 25 per eWt. of the capacity of the fabricating shops. In this connection it is interesting that for the six months prior to August 1 contracts taken aver aged monthly 68 per tent, of the capac ity of the bridge and other fabricating shops, while for the six months since the war the average has been only 30 per cent. March will probably be' dull in this line and not much is expected of the railroads. The largest new offer ing is for 7.500 tons for widening ele vated in Brooklyn. The advance in railroad freight rates of 5 per cent, to go into effect 011 Feb ruary 23 is causing no stir, and all interests are merely recognizing the fact.

A cold is really a fever, not always caused by the weather but duo to a disordered condition of i the blood or lack of important food elements. In changing seasons fit foods are essential because they dis tribute heat by enriching the blood and so render the body better able to withstand the varying elements. This is the underlying reason why the medicinal fats in Scott's Emulsion quickly overcome colds and build strength to prevent more serious sick ness.

What Thin Folks Should Do to Gain Weight Physician's Advice for Thin, Unde veloped Men and Women Thousands of people suffer from ex cessive thinness, weak nerves and feeble stomachs who, having tried advertised flesh-makers, food-fads, physical culture stunts and rub-on creams, resign them selves to life-long skinnincss and think nothing will make them fat. Yet their case is not hopeless. A recently ered regenerative force makes fat grow after veers of thinness, and is also tin equaled for repairing the waste of sick ness or faulty digestion and for strengthening the nerves. This remark able-discovery is called Sargol. Six strength-giving, fat-producing elements of acknowledged merit' have been com bined in this peerless preparation, which is endorsed by eminent physicians and used by prominent people everywhere. It is absolutely harmless, inexpensive and efficient. A month's systematic use of Savgol should produce flesh and strength bv correcting faults of digestion and by supplying highly concentrated fats to the blood. Increased nourishment is ob tained from the food eaten, and the additional fats that thin people need are provided. G. A. (iorgas and other leading druggists supply Sargol and say there is a large demand for it. While this new preparation has given splendid results as a nerve-tonic and vi talizer. it should not be used bv nerv ous people unless they wish to "gain at least ten pounds of flesh.—Adv.
