BAY STATE FIGHT
CLOSES T primary Will Probably Mark Turning Point in Repub lican Campaign. (National News Association) BOSTON, Mass., April 29. After tone of the hottest political campaigns Massachusetts has seen In years, the tate-wide presidential preference primary will be held tomorrow. The primaries will be confined to the selection of - delegates who will represent 'Massachusetts in the coming national conventions of the Republican and Democratic parties. The names of Taft, Roosevelt and LaFollette will ap--pear on the Republican ballot. On the Democratic ballot will appear the names of Wilson and Clark. Governor Foss withdrew his name from the ballot, though he still remains a receptive support of the Massachusetts delegates when the first ballot is taken at the Baltimore convention. Tomorrow's primaries will determine who is to have the support of Massachusetts when it becomes apparent that Governor Foss has no chance for the nomination. Early as last November astute politicians predicted that Massachusetts would be as interesting politcally this year, as some of the other states that have been known in the past as doubtful. In verification of this prediction it ig only necessary to point to the fact that both President Taft and Colonel Roosevelt have paid three visits each to the Bay state since the contest between the two began in earnest. Encouraged by the re-election of Governor Foss and the defeat of the regular Republican candidate last fall the " Progressive Republicans determined months ago to make a hard fight in Massachusetts this year. At first they hoped for nothing more than to prevent a solid delegation being sent to the national convention for President Taft. But developments of the past two months have so encouraged the Progressives that the leaders will, be disappointed if they .do not capture the entire delegation for Roosevelt at tomorrow's primaries. No Local Conflicts. Since the Massachusetts primaries are not complicated with local fights of any kind, they will offer a test of sentiment different from any that has gone before. It is a straight-out contest between Taft and Roosevelt, on the Republican side, and not a single state of county office will be affected by the results. They will not even be Indicative of sentiment affecting the governorship, or national issues, for that matter, for the- state convention is eliminated under the new primary law1 and the Massachusetts delegates to Chicago and Baltimore will not be governed even by a platform. If Cololel Roosevelt succeeds In carrying Massachusetts it will mean, in the opinion of his managers, that there will be no chance to check his triumphal march toward the nomination. As the situation stands, the Taft people feel comparatively safe, but at the same time they realize the moral effect of a Roosevelt victory in Massachusetts. They think that if Roosevelt carries the state the delegates from Southern states, always an uncertain quantity, will very likely flop over to the Roosevelt band wagon and create trouble if not disaster, at Chicago. While the situation in Massachusetts is not bo crucial for" the Democratic candidates, both Speaker Clark and Governor Wilson are anxious to get the Massachusetts delegates' to the Baltimore convention. The Clark campaign got under way several weeks ago and has gathered great momentum. The Clark managers express themselves absolutely confident that the Speaker will defeat Governor Wilson in Massachusetts by .a three-to-one vote. While they are not making any definite predictions as to the outcome, the .Wilson managers apparently are not worried c;ver the situation here. They say that Governor Wilson is certain to get his chare of the Massachusetts delegates. At the same time they have taken nothing for granted and have sent some of their strongest campaigners into the state during the past week. f MAY NOT INSTRUCT. V COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo., April 29. Colorado Democrats lined up here today for the state convention to ;name twelve delegates to the Baltimore convention. Despite the strong Hup port given early in the campaign to the Harmon boom, the real contest In the convention promises to be be.tween Clark and Wilson and between ,these two the delegates appear to be TOOK THREE BOTTLES RHEUMATISM GONE It Cost Mr. Miller Just $1.50 To Drive Out The Uric Acid, Get Rid Of Rheumatism And Have His Kidneys Work Perfectly.

Indigestion
Causes . Dizziness, Nervousness, Biliousness, Sick Headaches and Sleeplessness. You know that most of the ailments named above come from an out or order stomach. When your food reaches the stomach it should digest and furnish nutritious matter to the blood. If it doesn't digest, but lays heavily on your stomach, it has started to ferment. When it ferments it sets loose in the stomach poisonous gases which irritate the great pneumogastric nerve that leads directly from the brain to the stomach. That irritation causes heartburn, dizziness, nlghtsweats, nervousness, and other ailments. MI-O-NA is guaranteed to end all stomach misery, or money back. 50 cents at Leo H.

"Woman's Work Is Never Done" It is the faithful woman in the home, who does the cooking,, sweeping, dusting, washing and ironing, ambitious to keep her home as neat as a pin, and often having two or three children who require care and attention, who calls for our sympathy. Overwork is the result. Outraged nature asserts itself in time and female troubles appear. Such women should remember that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is the exact medicine they need when their strength is overtaxed and female weakness and derangements make life a burden. For nearly forty years it has been the standard remedy for such troubles. Amusements THEATRICAL CALENDAR. Gennett Theater. May 2 Field Greater Minstrels. May 4th Mrs. Guy McCabe.

Ringling's Circus. Ringling Brothers World's Greatest Shows is coming to Richmond on Tuesday, May 7, Their performance this season begins with an elaborate and costly spectacular production of "Joan 'of Arc" which employes in itself 1,200 persons, 600 horses and a trainload of special scenery and stage properties. This spectacle cost the showmen $500,000. It is an attraction that should draw immense crowds to the city on show day, for nothing like it has ever been seen in this country. The Ringling circus is twenty-nine years old this season. The first performance was given in Baraboo, Wisconsin, on April 5, 1883. The tent was home-made. The seats were planks borrowed from a lumber yard. The five brothers made all their ring "props." They had but one horse. It was a very small beginning, but it was enough to make them sufficient money to start out the following year with a bright little show. A few years later they made their first tour with a railroad show. From then on, in spite of bitter opposition of rival concerns, the five showmen forged ahead. It was not very long until their opponents found themselves on the defensive side of the game. The Ringlings had come to stay. The rest of their history reads like a miracle. Beginning with nothing they have built the greatest amusement enterprise in the history of the world. Their wonderful popularity and success can be traced principally, to two things: They were "on the square" with the people, and they had the peculiar talents that achieve success. The name of Ringling is a guarantee of satisfaction. Their word is as safe as the figures on Uncle Sam's money. In its new dress the circus this year presents an inspiring picture The show grounds are a city of a thousand wonders. All the great talent of the world shows itself in the performance. The foreign agents of the show engaged the company with but very few exceptions. Of the 375 performers there are not 100 who were ever seen In America before this season.

A BUSINESS REVIEW OF THE PAST WEEK BY HENRY CLEWS
Beyond dispute the stock market is in strong control. This Is demonstrated by resistance to unfavorable conditions and the concerted manner in which certain stocks are taken one by one and advanced. Quite a number of j specialties have been made more active at higher figures. Such movements have several motives behind them. Stocks fell into strong hands during the decline of 1911, and holders are naturally desirous of distributing a portion of their surplus upon as profitable a basis as possible. Conditions have certainly shown much improvement during the last few months, j and thoroughly justify the recovery al ready witnessed. Th coalers were strengthened by settlement of the strike problem; and the Vanderbilt group advanced on the rumored merger plan and a return to the former 6 per cent dividend basis. Big banking interests are also in favor of an active and stronger market. It is their particular function to raise new capital and market new issues. Their interests require activity and strength. Of new securities there have been exceptionally liberal offerings of late to meet the imperative requirements of railroads and other industrial concerns. Needless to say these cannot j be disposed of successfully when the market is depressed. It is, therefore, good policy and good business for financial interests to encourage an upward movement at this time. So far as public sentiment goes, we have had a long period of pessimism and depression. A reaction in feeling was bound to come. It first required leadership for development. Already it has made a good start and may make still further progress. Politics, though still an unsettling feature, are less of a factor than two or three months ago. The labor situation is disturbing, but indications favor settlements upon a compromise basis. Merchandise markets are fairly active, the consuming power of the masses having met with no material check, and industrial plants are generally well occupied in trying to fill empty shelves. The most encouraging feature in the industrial situation is the extraordinary activity in steel. Our steel plants are now being strained to the utmost to meet actual demands, and this in spite of the great increase of capacity during the last three or four years. Prices are low, so that profits are not what they would have been during the last boom, but values show a rising tendency and there is still a heavy volume of orders in prospect which will keep the industry fully occupied for months to come. Railroads are of course heavy buyers, and recent security issues are the best assurance of continued large bujing from this quarter. There are no indications thus far of the investment market being oversupplied with new issues, heavy as these have been. The new, capital thus acquired will prove a powerful stimulant to many lines of industry and add materially to the demand for labor. All indications point to a more active business season. Values, it is true, particularly of merchandise, are high, and this is one of the drawbacks of the situation; but the country, and in fact the whole world, is adjusting itself somewhat painfully to the new high level of prices. The most vital feature of the situation is the crop outlook. The damage to winter wheat was an unwelcome, but not serious occurrence. There is ample time to renlant -nrlfK tKA. j ... i f niiu umci uups, hliu grain mat I WAS nnlv narioll.. T . - iiijuicu uaa.tt guua chance for recovery. Of course, a big wheat crop would be highly beneficial the world over as an important aid to lowering the cost of food. This country, however, is more interested in corn than in any other crop. The outlook in this respect is encouraging for a larger acreage, and soil conditions, it is worth remembering, are in many respects Ideal. The .season, however is late and it is altogether too early to form any positive opinions about crops. The planting of cotton has been. much delayed, so that it is premalure to believe that there will be any important decrease in acreage. Considering that cotton yielded handsome profits to the South last year in spite of lower prices, it is hardly to be supposed that there will be any Important shrinkage in acreage. Every grower would like to see a cut of 10 to 20 per cent, but as usual each one will expect his neighbor to curtail so that he may plant a little more. After all has been said, temperature and rainfall are more imHI means more than a fat baby. It means laying the foundation of a strong, sturdy constitution. Fat alone is not enough; there must be bone,, muscle, brain and nerves.

portant elements in the final yield than any ordinary fluctuations in acreage. Monetary conditions are generally favorable to the stock market, loanable funds being abundant and cheap. Any decided increase in business activity would, of course, lesson the Bupply available for market nurnoses.
Our bank reserves are low, but do not j really represent our actual financial strength, because our credits abroad have been greatly strengthened by fathere are still large sums of American money loaned in Europe which can be utilized when needed on this side. The coal strike has been practically settled without any serious disturbance. There is reason to hope that the engineers' strike will also yield to reason and sober second-thought. All things considered, there is a basis for taking a cheerful view of the situation in the long run. The market has had a very considerable rise, especially in some stocks, and increasing realizations are in order. The more rapid the advance, the more certainly must reactions be expected.' A break of a few points is really desirable from the technical point of view, since it would give the market a needed test, bring in a new buying element and stimulate general activity. The possibility of political chills or unfavorable crop developments cannot be ignored. In the long run, however, the market promises to reach a Btill higher level, and in this will probably be assisted by anticipation of the usual spring advance which, according to tradition, starts: "when the sap begins to rise."

If on the tenth meridian east, for Instance, his angular distance from the meridian of Greenwich does not change. He is -iways 10 degrees east of that meridian from one pole to the other.

Every backache sufferer, every man, woman or child with any kidney trouble will find profit In the reading. David Hershey. 316 S. Thirteenth St., Richmond, Ind., says: "I was troubled for some time by kidney complaint and the remedies I tried did not help me. Often I was hardly able to straighten on account of sharp, cutting pains across the small of my back and the least exertion or any cold I contracted caused the kidney secretions to pass too frequently. Doan's Kidney Pills, obtained at A. G. Iuken & Co's Drug Store cured me and at that time, I publicly recommended them.

Have you ever noticed an older person walking on tbe street pulling a child slong by the arm? Have you stopped to remark on the way in which the little arm is held, so high that tbe child's whole weight is resting on the shoulder muscle which connects th arm to it? Or perhaps you are one of the groups who help children along In that way. If you are just stop to think of what you are doing. The strain put on that young muscle, much more tender than is your own arm. for Instance, is enough to cause the muscle to give way. No child should be hurried along. He knows just bow fast he can walk, and It is only harmful to force or to drag him. Lifting him by tbe arm or arms in such a way might result in permanent in-Jury-Here is another suggestion to save tbe young muscles from overdoing: A child should never be allowed to lift or to carry anything which he cannot raise with the greatest ease.

A Dangerous Fire Aboard Hie Ship Didn't Excite, the Admiral. Two or three days before the battle of Trafalgar a boy on the Victory carelessly set fire to a bottle of ether. The result was that the flames extended to some sails and also to a part of the ship. There was a general confusionrunning with buckets and what not and. to make matters worse, the fire was becoming dangerous, as it was rapidly extending to the powder magazine. During the hubbub Lord Nelson was in the chief cabin writing dispatches, nis lordship heard the noise he could not do otherwise and so in a loud Tolee he called out: "What's all that noise about?" Tbe boatswain answered: "My lord, the loblolly boy's set fire to an empty bottle and it's set fire to the ship." "Ohr said Nelson. "That's all. is it? I thought the enemy had boarded us and taken us alt prisoners. You and loblolly must put it out and take care we're not blown up. But pray make as little noise about it as you can or 1 can't go on with my dispatches." And with these words Nelson went to bJs desk and continued his writing with the greatest coolness.

Why Children Are Puny
Need More Food Richer Blood, Better Appetite. Anxious parents often wonder why their children are so thin, pale and nervous and have so little appetite. Growing children need "lots" of food, They use so much energy in play, and their growing bodies require so much more, that unless they eat heartily they are bound to suffer. A Bloomfield. N. J, mother. Mrs. EL W. Cooper, says: "My little girl had a bad cold and was run down in health for six weeks. Then 1 gave her Vinol and it was a wonderful help, breaking up her cold quickly and building up strength besides. I have also found Vinol an excellent tonic for keeping up children's strength during whooping cough." Our delicious tonic.
