If tho Electorlal College docs not
give Taft, Roosevelt or Wilson tho
necessary number of votes, and tho
House of Representatives falls to
elect by tho necessary majority, who
will bo President after March 1,
1D13? says tho Philadelphia Bulletin.
This question Is being discussed
widely among leading politicians,
constitutional lawyers and laymen be
cause of the three-cornered light for
tho Presidency and tho possibility
that Congress may bo called upon to
decide who shall 1111 the office.
Somo hellovo that if tho House or

choice, tho Vice-President now in of-

Twice Ucore.
Only twice In tho history of tho
1 r 1 1 r iiii 1 fix. iir r-1 rnrinii
country hns tho election of a Tresl
jdent and Vice-President been thrown
Into Congress. In 18S0 Jefferson
but. iii (.'lui-iunu uiua, uiui 10 voics
and Adams 05 votes. Thoro bolng
no choice, tho House of Iteprcsonta
tives, acting under Artlclo 2 of tho
Constitution, elected. After ballot
ing for six days Joftorson was elected
President and Burr Vice-president.
In 1S24 Jackson got 99 olectoral
votes; Adams S4; Crawford, of Geor
gia, 41, nnd Clay, 37. Thoro being
no choice, the election was thrown in
congress, uy a coalition oi tno Clay
and Adams votes Adams was elected.
Tho twelfth amendment had been
adontcd nrior to this. Calhoun rn-
! celved 1S2 electoral votes for Vice-
President against 72 for tho various
other candidates, and wns declared
elected by tho votes of tho electoral
college.
Tho Haycs-Tilden controversy in
1S7G was not the direct result of a
failure of tho Klectoral Collego to
give either the necessary majority.
It got into Congress on chnrgos of
fraudulent votes In Southern States.
HOW TO AVOID CONSUMPTION".
Tuberculosis Is almost the direct
opposito to health. A man may lose
nn eye or contract smallpox or even
typhoid fever, while in a compara
tively healthy condition. Tho con
sumptive, however, must havo used
up practically all his health before
ho falls prey to the disease.
Anything that builds up your
body's vigor is thereforo preventing
you from developing tuberculosis.
As long as you keep in health you
need not fear consumption.
Keeping in health means taking
care of every part of your body.
Your eyes, your teeth, your stomach,
your lungs must be constantly look
ed after, Just as an engineer goes
over his locomotive before he makes
a trip. Regularity in sleeping and
eating should bo observed. Exercise
and rest are equally important. You
should have fresh air, good food and
pure water. Your houso must bo
clean.
Xor is this enough. If you are
really Interested in keeping well, it
is your duty to seo that your local
board of health is active and that
your town Is a clean, wholesome
place. Karl do Schweinltz, Execu
tive Secretary, Pennsylvania Society
for tho Prevention of Tuberculosis.
WONDERFUL HELEN KELLER.
What Helen Keller could not have
done if sho had been blessed with
five senses instead of only two, is
beyond imagination. That she
should have learned to read and
write, is happily, not extraordinary
accomplishment for tho deaf and
dumb in our day. Even speaking,
after a fashion at least, is not the
wonder it used to be. But that one
who cannot hear should undertake to
sing is sufficiently marvellous to as
tonish a more triumph-sated century
than ours. It almost seems as if
this woman, with her deprivation of
the most direct avenues to the world
about her, is more fortunate than the
normal person. How much she has
missed of tho sordid and the inane in
literature and in life! Certainly she
has been thrico happy in her In
troducers and guides into the realms
from which sho was onco apparently
shut out by an inexorablo fate.
Whatever her future, sho can al
ready say in a sense that long seem
ed absuredly and pitifully impossible
for her: " I havo lived!"
KW TYPEWRITER 1UHIJONS
INKED OX ONLY ONE SIDE.
Manufacturers of typewriter sup
plies havo marketed a new ribbon
which Is inked on one side only, tho
side which goes next to tho writing
paper and which is never touched by
tho typo Itself. Tho idea is to pre
vent the type of a machine clogging,
which produces an Impression of
which tho legibility is impaired and
which is not nearly so attractlvo in
appearanco as a clear impression.
The keys become clogged very quick
ly when a typewriter is in dally use.
Ordinary dust and dirt has very lit
tle to do with tho clogging, as most
t.. , 8 cause(1 Dy tho surplus ink
. 1 . tho typo col'ects In repeatedly
striking the ribbon. It Is claimed
for the seml-lnked ribbons that they
are an absolute guaranty against any
clogging of typo faces and if this bo
true, they will bo a boon to tho typ
st, for cleaning tho type and keep
ing It clean Is ono of tho tedious and
annoying tasks of an operator.
NOOI, IN WILL, SAYS
HIS WORK WAS OVER.
Signed Twenty.four Hours Before
Dentil, it Indicates Wife Still
Viicerlaln.
Tokio, Japan. Tho will of Gen
eral Count Marcsuko Nogl. who with
his wife, tho Countess Nogl, com
mitted sulcldo at tho moment that
the body of tho late Emperor was
started on Its journey to tho tonlz,
was published last week.
Tho Japanoso warrior says that he
follows tho Emperor becauso his
services aro no longer required In
this world. Ho had often sought to
die, ho adds, and chooses as tho oc
casion for his doparturo from this
life tho prosent great national calam
ity under which tho country Is labor
ing. Tho document boars tho date of
tho night of September 12, twenty
four hours previous to tho taking of
his life, and it indicates that tho
death of the Countess had not boon
doelded upon when tho instrument
was prepared.
Tho Port Arthur hero suggests
that his body bo given to a medical
college, requesting that only his
teeth, hair and nails bo burled In tho
gravo.

25,000 MEN IN PROCESSION
Ono of (he Itl Events' at State
Sunday School Convention.
Tho wearing of a button or coat
lapol pin to represent nn order or
nn organization Is now a world
wldo custom. Among tho many
designs now being worn tho ono of
tho red circle with a white center
Is found In practically every city,
town, village, hamlet nnd in tho
country places. Tho button repre
sents the O. A. B. C. movolncnt,
tho inltlnls meaning Organized
Adult Bible Class. Wherover thero
aro Sunday schools this emblem
will bo found.
Pennsylvania Btands at tho fore
front of tho movement in tho num
ber of organized classes, and nlso
In clnss membership. These classes
are for men and women, but the
majority of them In Pennylvanla
aro made up entirely of men. The
total number of nil clnsses In tho
United States and Canada now
numbers 31,221. of which over 5.
200 aro located in Pennsylvania.
Tho representatives of these
classes aro planning a great dem
onstration to be held in connection
with tho Jubileo State Sunday
school convention to bo held in
Philadelphia, October S to 11.
Thursday, October 10, will bo
recognized as O. A. B. C. Day, and
many of the county organizations
are planning ono and two day ex
cursions for tho occasion. Tho
demonstration will wind up with a
great men's parade. Tho commit
tee in chnrgo say there will bo 25,
000 men in line. The classes par
ticipating will havo transparencies,
banners, floats, and illuminated
designs nil as a testimony to tho
worth of Bible study.
Following tho parade thero will
be a great open air meeting on the
City Hall Plaza. A reviewing
stand will bo erected for the mayor
of the city and invited guests. At
this stand the bands of music par
ticipating in the parade will be
massed and many stirring march
hymns of the church will be play
ed. A stereoptieon, also will be used
to show same of the large Bible
Classes of the State. Mr. W. D.
Stem, State O. A. B. C. Field Su
perintendent for the Pennsylvania
Stato Sabbath School Association,
with headquarters in the Wither
spoon Building, Philadelphia, says
tho demonstration will .be the great
est of its kind ever held.
BETTER ROADS EOR THIS STATE.
Hnrrisburg, Sept. 24. Experi
ments are under way by the State
Highway Department in a dozen
counties of the State to determine
tho best methods of road construc
tion, so that when the Common
wealth begins its general road build
ing under the $50,000,000, which it
is expected will bo voted by tho peo
ple next year, Pennsylvania will not
only obtain tho best roads but those
best suited to the locality in which
they aro to be built. This experi
mental work has been in progress
for more than a year, and reports
upon traffic and tho manner in which
tho various roads aro standing up
are made every few days.
In selecting the locations for ex
perimental purposes the department
picked out typical rural, manufactur
ing, automobile travel and suburban
roads, and material was used which
was believed to possess qualities
when laid that would best resist the
wear and tear peculiar to each. In
somo of tho farming communities
road compositions havo been used
which will enable good tlmo to bo
made by ordinary narrow-tired mar
ket wagons and at the same time be
easier on tho horses' hoofs than tho
harder roads laid down in industrial
sections where teaming is heavy.
For roads much frequented by auto
mobiles tho State has been trying
construction of a character which
would resist tho suction due to large
rubber tires. In suburban communi
ties tho aim has been to promote
easy communication from farming
districts and for store deliveries.
On all experiments careful atten
tion has l)cen paid to tho extent and
cost of repairs and efforts made to
find a method to reduce dust to a
minimum. Tho end of tho year will
seo the Stato supplied with tho most
complete data possiblo on tho sub
ject. Many farmers, team ownors
and automobllists havo assisted In
tho work by sending notes on their
observations of tho roads to tho Stato
Highway Department. Members of
tho Pennsylvania Motor Federation,
who aro working for tho adoption of
tho constitutional amendment au
thorizing ?50,000,000 bond Issue,
have been lending aid so that the
Stato may secure tho very best re
sults for its money.
