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

Physician's Prescription
For Indigestion
Important for All Those Who Shffer
After Eating
If yon suffer from indigestion after
eating' and find that instead of the one
little pepsin or soda pill you used to
take, it now needs two or three te stop
it. it's time you. called a halt and did
some hard thinking.
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

the stomach muscles and vitalize the

IMPROVEMENT ill STEEL
TRADE BEING SUSTAINED
Spectacular Event Is the Rise In Prices
of Galvanised Steel and Iron Pipe
of to and $4 • Ton, Respec
tively v
p New York, Feb. 19.—The "Iron
i'Age" says tendencies is the next few
| weeks iu finished steel prices will have
: an importaut bearing ou betterment iu
general. 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.

WHAT CAUSES GOLDS?
This question and "How to Prevent
Colds" is asked a thousand times
every day. 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. It contains nature s medicinal
fats, so skillfully prepared that the
blood profits from every drop, and K is
free from harmful drugs or alcohol.

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.
WOMAN'S PRAYERS ANSWERED
For 18 Years She Had Hoped for
Brother's Return
Detroit, Mich., Feb. 19.—Hope sus
tained Mrs. George Wilds through
eighteen years of waiting for the re
appearance of her brother, Charles
Youngs, who departed from his home
iu Cleveland, Ohio.
Nothing was heard of him until a
tew days ago, when a letter came from
I him to Mrs. Wilds, widow of Captain
(Wilds, who was drowned ou the lakes
| last summer. He is ill in the Erie
county infirmary, uear Cleveland, and
arrangements will be made to have
him taken to his sister's home. LilH
bridge avenue, Detroit,
It was hope and prayer that kept up
the belief of Mrs. Wilds that her brfith
er would some day be restoied to her.
Several times he had been given up
for dead. Seven years ago word was
I sent her that positive news of his
| death was at hand. She refused to be
j iieve it and told her son, Clarence, that
the brother would some day appear.
Some time after this talk Captain
Wilds, who was near Cleveland on a
mission, was met by an old friend and
. tolil that hie brother-in-law was ill
Cleveland. The police were notified
and another search was started. But,
like the previous hunt, it was unavail
ing. Clarence undertook a personal
, | hunt, urged on by his mother, and kept
, it up through the seven years. Finally
Clarence received word that Mr.

I I DON'T WASH YOUR
HAIR WITH SOAP
' When you wash your linir, don't
I | use soap. Most soaps and prepared
,jl shampoos contain too much alkali,
II which is very injurious, as it dries
| j the scalp aud makes the hair brittle.
The best thing to use is just plain
j mulsified eocoanut oil, for this is pure
I ] and entirely grcaseless. It's very
j cheap, ami beats soaps or anything
else nil to pieces. You can get this
! at any drug store, and a few ounces
' will last the whole family for
months.
Simpl.v moisten the hair with
water and rub it in, about a tea
spoonful is all that is required. It
makes an abundance of rich, creamy
1 lather, cleanses thoroughly, and
: rinses out easily. The hair dries
i quickly and evenly, and is soft, fresh
' | looking, bright, fluffy, wavy and easy
to handle. Besides, it loosens and
[ takes out every particle of dust, dirt
' : and dandruff.
