WILL BREAK HEWS

TO Governor Wilson Will Be Informed of His Nomination by Democrats. (National News Association) SEAGIRT, N. J., Aug. 6. This little seashore town, the official residence during the summer months of ithe governor of New Jersey, win be (the scene tomorrow of the most representative gathering of Democratic headers of national prominence that has assembled since the Baltimore convention. The occasion will be the official notification of Woodrow Wil!son of his nomination for President of the United States. The notification committee will consist of fifty-two members, representing all of the states and territories, with Ollie James of Kentucky, permanent chairman of the Baltimore convention, at the head. Mr. James will deliver the notification speech and Governor Wilson will respond with his formal speech of acceptance, standing on a little knoll in his yard beneath a group of elms, with his visitors grouped about him on the lawn. If the weather is stormy the speech-making part of the program will take place indoors or on the spacious veranda of the house. Much public interest naturally centers in Governor Wilson's speech, since It will be his first public comment on the Democratic platform as an entirety. While he has declined to forecast his speech, it is known that the tariff will be dealt with as the leading issue. In close relation to this Governor Wilson is expected to place the high cost of living, which he is said to regard as but a development of the present tariff system. After the Governor's speech there iwill be handshaking all around and 'then the company will be entertained ,at a buffet luncheon. During all this time and while the guests linger it is i naturally to be expected that a lot of i politics will be talked and as likely as not many plans will be laid for . work in various states, where the i situation is acute. "I was cured of diarrhoea by one j dose of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy," writes M. E. Gebhardt, Oriole, Pa. There is nothing better. For sale by all dealers. ANCIENT EMBALMERS. Motive Which Impelled the Egyptians to Preserve the Dead. To appreciate the motives which im- . pelled the ancient Egyptians to Invent the art of embalming It is necessary to throw our minds back nearly sixty centuries. Then Egyptians were In the habit of burying their dead In shallow holes scraped in .the soil Jmmediately beyond the limits of the narrow strip of cultivated land. As the result of placing the body in hot dry sand It frequently happened that. Instead of undergoing a process of decay. It became desiccated and preserved In an Incorruptible form for an indefinite time. The burial of valuable and useful objects with the dead naturally led to grave robbing, which .was already common in the earliest known prehistoric times In Egypt. This plundering of graves must have taught the people at large that the forces of nature were often sufficient to preserve a dead body. In this way it became a part of the religion of the Egyptians to regard the preservation of the body as the condition of the attainment of Immortality. The early Egyptians learned that the body when placed In a coffin or buried In a rock tomb usually underwent decomposition. It was a widespread belief that the stone "ate the flesh" hence the word "sarcophagus." Artificial mummification, therefore, had Its origin In an attempt to deprive the grave of Its victory.

Amusements THEATRICAL CALENDAR At The Murray. Lewis-Oliver Stock company, indefinite. "The Young Wife." Miss Mable Frost as the young wife and Mr. Lewis as the husband were quite a lovely couple in the performance at the Murray Theater last night. Whilst the play has been presented here before, it created a decided impression. Mr. Wolcott as Mark Granby left little to be desired, as the original home breaker. Miss Flora Frost, Edna Smith and Jack Carrington, Earl Simmons, were up to their usual standard and added materially to the show. The play teaches a splendid lesson, and affords a pleasant two hour amusement. ANTICS OF AN ACTOR. The Prank tha Elder Sothern Played In a London Shop. One day the elder Sothern, the creator of Lord Dundreary, went into an ironmonger's shop in London and asked for Macaulay's "History of England." "We do not sell books, sir," said the assistant. "This Is an ironmonger's shop." "Well, I'm not particular," said Sothern, pretending to be deaf. "I don't care whether It is bound in calf or russia." "But this is not a bookseller's!" shouted the assistant. "All right," said Sothern; "wrap it up neatly. I want to have it sent down to the hotel. It's for a present I wish to make to a relative." "We don't keep it!" shouted the assistant, getting red in the face. "Do It up as if it were for your own mother. I don't want any"CERTAINLY, SIR!" thing better than that," said Sothern. "I would like to write my name on the flyleaf." "Sir," bawled the assistant at the top of his voice, "don't you see we do not keep books?" "Very well," replied Sothern, quite undisturbed; "I will wait for it" The assistant ran into the next room and appealed to his master, saying he thought the customer must be off his head. "What is it, sir? What do you desire?" asked the ironmonger of Sothern as he and his flustered salesman came into the shop. "I want to buy a file," said the actor "a plain file, four or five inches long." "Certainly, sir," said the master, casting a withering glance at bis assistant. Swarming With Them. Mrs. C. W. Earle's recent contribution to the history of English life ot the first half of the last century, entitled "Memoirs and Memories," includes a fresh blossom in the apparently fadeless wreath of Sydney Smith's wit Mrs. Earle's mother imparted the information to Sydney Smith that she was going to Bath to see an old aunt. "What" he exclaimed, "you've got an aunt at Bath? I have an aunt at Bath. Every one has an aunt at Bath, It's a perfect ant heap." An International Comedy. Some years ago at a house party at Hatfield in honor of the kaiser the invited guests Included the rrince of Wales afterward Edward VIL the Portuguese minister and M. Waddington, the French ambassador, and his wife. During the evening Mme. Waddington's diamond necklace became unfastened. After vainly attempting to refasten it she called the Portuguese minister to her assistance, but he was not more successful. Every one was interested in the little mishap, and then the kaiser remarked, amid laughter: "There is Portugal trying to strangle France f ; The Prince of Wales rose to assist Mme. Waddington, and then the JuJsei in a grave tone added: "It is really a serious mattar. land U mixed on. la itT

LOOKING WELL IN SUMMER. Keep the Hair Neat and the Face Hygienically Clean. One of the duties in summer Is to look cool, and no woman can look cool if her face is aflame, her brow sticky and her nose peeling. Rosewater and glycerin and a bit of chamois aud powder carried in the band bag quickly remove shine. Neat hair Is a harder problem. The woman whose locks are flat and sticky in hot weather is to be pitied. She need not be a sight If she makes the best of the Inevitable. Discard useless curling irons and adopt another style of hairdressing. Wash the hair once a week to keep it free from oil, brush hard to further check oil and use a net to prevent straggling ends. If at night the hair is wet, tied with fillets and combed up between it will never be entirely flat Summer nerves are hard to conquer. Heat is enervating, it is uncomfortable to exercise, so the liver suffers, and, appetite failing, digestion is deranged. One will feel much better by taking a moderate amount of exercise even on the hottest days. A walk early in the morning or after sunset can be taken without fear of prostration. Eat sparingly of nourishing foods and do not live on Iced drinks and sweets. Excessive perspiration Is a sign of physical weakness and should be checked. An ordinary amount is not dangerous, but can be made endjirable by the use of talcum powder and sponging with alcohol. Powdered borax will help. Water For Nervousness. "If people would only drink more water they would not be so nervous." say physicians and trained nurses. Nearly all doctors will recommend one who is suffering from nervous prostration or nervous exhaustion to drink- lots of water between meals. Those who need not come under the care of a physician would look and feel better if they would drink at least a quart of water during the day. Those who know say that water is a nerve food and that it has a distinctly soothing effect when sippet! gradually. Water drunk slowly and gradually has somewhat the 6a cud quality as deep breathing. About Women. Women, says de Maule la Claviere, are not so frail as peop'e are pleased to say. They are frail only when they wish to be. It was in the manufacture of textiles that woman first appeared in industry outside of the home. In China women carry their children from baskets that hang from a bar that crosses the mother's shoulders. Twins are desirable as preserving the balance of weight, if not for other reasons. Good and True Safe and reliable for regulating the bowels, stimulating the liver, toning the stomach the world's most famous and most approved family remedy is . PILILS Said eeijelma 28a, 3 DR. .

Home Treatment for Tuberculosis Consumptive patients need no longer dread either the fate that formerly overtook all sufferers from lung trouble, or costly and inconvenient journeys far from home to other climates or to some expensive sanatorium. Hundreds are now staying quietly at home, restoring themselves to health at the cost of .a few bottles of medicine. Here is one who speaks from experience: 220 S. 4th St., Colwyn (Darby), Pa. "Gentlemen: For four years I was troubled with cotigh, which gradually became worse. A physician pronounced my case Consumption, and I was ordered to a Consumptive hospital. My nephew would not allow me to go until I had tried Eckman's Alterative. Before I had taken the medieine three weeks I commenced getting well. I am in excellent health now and have been completely cured for ten years. I strongly recommend it." (Signed) (MRS.) MARY WASSON. Eckman's Alterative is effective in Bronchitis, Asthma, Hay Fever; Throat and Lung Troubles, and In upbuilding the system. Does not contain poisons, opiates or habit-forming drugs. For sale by A. G.

And That Kept Him From Giving the Other Man the Address. Will Townsley of the Greut Bend Tribune tells this story of a versatile minister in western Kansas, who is also postmaster, ruus the ouly general store in the town, is president of the only bank in the place and is also a practicing lawyer: On one occasion a traveling salesman sold the town merchant a lot of jewelry. When it came it was not as represented and was returned to the house, which, however, undertook to collect the bill. First the wholesale house drew a sight draft on the merchant through the bank, which was returned -unhonored. Then a letter was addressed to the postmaster inquiring about the financial standing of the merchant. The postmaster reported the merchant all O. K. Finally the account was sent for collection addressed to the leading lawyer. Then the minister took his pen in band and wrote as follows: "The undersigned is the merchant on whom you attempted to palm off your worthless goods: the undersigned is president and owner of the bank to which you sent your sight draft; the undersigned is the postmaster to whom you wrote, and the undersigned is the lawyer whose services you sought to obtain for your nefarious business. And if the undersigned were not also the pastor of the church at this place he would tell you where to go." Kansas City Star. How to Make Quick Campfire. Drive a forked stake in the ground and upon It slant a green stick with the stub of a branch left on the upper end to hold the handle of a pot or kettle and fasten down the lower end to the - ground. The bottom of pot or kettle should clear the ground two feet. Gather wood, partly shave down two or three sticks, but leave shavings on stick. Build wood around in the same way, leaving plenty of air spaces. Light shavings and you will soon have a good fire. By the time the water has boiled for tea or coffee your fire will be a mass of coals, ready for roasting, frying or broiling. Fire With Wet Wood. Cut off several sections of candle and light all at once. Yon will have a steady blaze, which will readily start your wet kindling. Dry roots make an intensely hot fire, with no amoke. How to Bleach Flannels. Flannels, after they are laundered for awhile, become yellow. If they are soaked for two or three hours in a lather made of a half cake of white soap, two tablespoonfuls of borax and the same amount of carbonate of ammonia they will get white again. These ingredients should be dissolved in five gallons of soft water. Boil the soap in the water until thoroughly dissolved, then add the remainder of the mixture. Rinse the flannels several times and hang them up to dry. This will not in1ure the flannels in the least AVIATOR WITH HEADACHE FALLS Only recently we read of an aviator who said he fell becnnHe his head ached. He wasn't himself.

HOW TO USE A NEW CARRIAGE Let It Stand a Few Day Before Using So the Finish Can Harden. The time when a fine carriage or wagon needs the most careful attention is Immediately after the first time it is driven out. It should then be thoroughly washed. If the new vehicle happens to be a carriage more than the usual pains must be taken, because If mud is allowed to dry upon the pane's permanent stains will be the result it is advisable not to use a new carriage or wagon at once, but to let it stand In the stables for several

days. This will give the newly applied varnish an opportunity to set and harden. The fine art of carriage washing Is best exercised with the aid of water applied with sponges and chamois leathers. There Is nothing better than watr and plenty of it. All movable fittings being removed and the upholstering covered, the skillful carriage washer starts work on the roof. This washed and wiped dry with chamois, he proceeds to do the dasher and aprons, these being dried in turn. Next come the seat borders, floor cloths and bootings of the steps. The wheels are washed last. The secret of carriage wasbiug Is plenty of -water and careful wiping. If the vehicle has not been used for several days it should have an airing, dusting anl washing Just tht, same. Tennyson's Prediction. Tennyson predicted the day of his death. Just a year before his death friends of the poet were visiting Aid- j worth Ilouse. The late I.ord Selborne J turned to Tennyson and remarked. "You ought to be happy here." "Ah." sighed the poet. "I have only a year to live!" Ills hearers laughed at the remark, but It was a prophetic assertion that was verified to the minute. 6i mm ALCOHOL 3 PER CENT. .

Rook and Crook. The rook appears to have become the bird whose name stands for swindlers in a distinctly unfair way. At first "rook" meant a dupe, then the verb to rook" came to mean to cheat and out of this was evolved Took," a cheater a complete topsy turvy process. It is curious that the same thing has not happened to "gulL" Here also the verb came from the substantive

meaning a dupe, aud as the gull strikes ; one as rather a knowing bird one. might have expected the same evolution as In the case of the rook. It should be observed, however, that "gull." a dupe, did not refer specially j to the aea gull, toe word having formerly meant a young bird of any kind. In Elizabethan English It signified a callow youngster who wished to be thought smart London Chronicle. Tha Salamander. In Andrews" "Anecdotes Ancient and Modern" ilTSOt one reads, "Should a glass bouse fire be kept up without extinction for a longer term than seven years there is do doubt but that a sslamander would be generated in the cinders."
