AUDITOR TELLS

CITIZENS HOW TO REGISTER

Registration Necessary Oct. 5 Before Voter May Cast His Ballot at the November Election. Persons Absent May Qualify to Vote by Filing Application Blanks Before Witnesses. BY L. S. BOWMAN. Every voter must register in order to qualify to vote at the November election. The registration boards will hold their sessions on Monday, October 5, 1914. Hoards will be in session from 6 o'clock a. m. to 9 o'clock p. m. of that day, except when necessary to accommodate the voterB of any precinct, It may be prolonged either one or two days, but then only upon a request in writing signed by ten voters in the precinct, three of whom are freeholders, filed with the board of registration. The applications of sick,

quarantined and absent voters should be handed to the board on the first day of the session, as at that time it may not be definitely known that there will be a second day's session. Sick, quarantined and unavoidably i

absent from the county are required to execute an application containing all matters required of applicants in person. This application must state that on the day and at the time of the regular session of the board of his precinct he is or will be, unavoidably absent from the county, stating his whereabouts on the day, or days, of registration, or that he is sick or quarantined, as the case may be. Need Two Witnesses. The application must be sworn to before an officer authorized to administer oats and using an official seal, and two freeholders, residing in the precinct must certify to their acquaintance with applicant, that he is the person he represents himself to be, and that the facts stated in the application are true. This application, so certified and sworn to, must be delivered to the board while sitting for the purpose of receiving application., by any registered voter of that precinct (and not by mail or otherwise), on the 29th day before the election, or the first day of the regular session. Some of the most important changes in the registration law since 1912 are as follows: The present law provides for only one regular session Instead of three as in the former law, provided, however, that upon a petition signed by at least three hundred resident freeholder voters of the county, and filed with the county auditor at least eighty days before the election, there shall be held in each precinct of the county a session of the board of registration for one day only, on the fifty-ninth day before the election, which shall be called the September session, but as no petition was filed in Wayne county, there will be but the one regular session for registration. Lengthen Hours. The number of hours which the board must be in session has been increased. Under the old law sessions began at 6 o'clock a. m. and continued to 8 o.'clock p. m.; under the new law the board shall begin at 6 o'clock a. m. and remain in session until 9 o'clock

P- m. j The old law required all voters to '

appear before the board in person in order to register. The new law provides for absent voters to register by affidavit. The pay for registration officials has been changed. Under the old law officials received $4 per day for time actually employed, and no mileage for inspectors was provided for. Under the new law the inspector shall receives for all his services, before, on and after registration day the sum of 3; and in addition he shall be paid 10 cents per mile for each mile of the shortest distance between his residence and the auditor's office. The clerks shall receive for all services performed the sum of $3, provided, however, that if the board of registration shall be in session two or more successive days, then each member of the board shall receive an additional $3 for each succeeding day. The old law required registration for city elections in any city of more than 15,000 inhabitants according to the last preceding United States census. The new law applies to cities of the first and second classes, only, which does not apply to the city of Richmond, it being a city of the third

AUGUST BELMONT HEADS AID MOVE

August Belmont has just been named as treasurer of the new committee of mercy, which has just been organized in New York city to collect funds to be quickly distributed among the destitute families of fighting men both here and abroad. Mrs. J. Borden Harriman was the first to take up this movement and among those who have aided her are Katherine D. Davis, Mayor Mitchel of New York, Miss Ida Tarbell, Mrs. Harry Payne Whitney, Vincent Astor and Louis Brandeis.

"Warren," began Helen tentatively, "is everything decided about going up to Pine Bluffs next week?" "Of course everything Is settled. I fixed matters up when we were up there. Now what's the matter? I suppose you've decided that you don't want to go. Haven't clothes enough," sarcastically. "Why, dear, you know that I have everything I need, and I like the place very much ; it isn't that at all." "Well, what is it then? That's the worst of you women, you get an idea in your mind and then you have to be coaxed to talk about it. Get it out now you'll feel better when it's over." Helen patted the pillows on the couch into place and did not answer. She was thinking of the letter in her dressing table drawer, the letter that she had received only that morning from her mother. It was about Winifred. "I don't mean to criticise you, my dear," it had said, "but surely you must feel that I am right. Dearly as we love Winifred, your father and I both feel that we are doing wrong to keep her any longer. It was different when you and Warren had the chance to go to Europe and when you came back I felt sure that she would be better here with us in the country, but now she is asking for her mother. She is a girl, remember, Helen, and girls need their mothers. Come out and make us a visit you haven't been here in so long." Helen had remembered with a rush of mother love all of Winifred's dear little ways as she had read the letter through. Warren had thought it best to wait until Fall to have the child back, but Helen felt that she could not do without her baby any longer. Suddenly she came to herself with a start. Warren was speaking. "Now what are you thinking about, mooning off there in the corner? Aren't you going to tell me? I've been waiting here for your confidences for the last five minutes." "It's about Winifred," said Helen suddenly. "I want her home, Warren. I've decided not to wait until Fall after all." Warren threw down the paper impatiently. "I thought we thrashed that matter out long ago. The child's a lot better out there in the country than she would be at a summer hotel. You'll agree to that I suppose." "Yes, I know she's better out there with mother, but after all that isn't the point. I'm her mother, Warren. Mother reminded me of that fact this morning. I" "What's the matter, doesn't your mother want to keep her any longer?" interrupted Warren. "Why don't you come to the point without beating around the bush any longer? Why this sudden desire to have Winifred home when you know she's better off where she is?" "Iv'e suddently waked up to the fact that I am missing something," said Helen with sudden heat. "I haven't really known my baby for a year. When I have visited her she has seemed almost like some other woman's little girl. Why she loves mother more now than she does me. I tell you I can't stand it any longer Warren, I must have Winifred home." "I suppose you want me to give up our rooms at the Seaview and rush out West just to humor you in one of your moods." "Why couldn't you let me go? Then we could have Winifred with us at Pine Bluffs." "I tell you that I don't believe in taking children to hotels of that kind. Wouldn't it be wiser to wait until

later? Then perhaps I could run out with you for a day or so and we could bring Winifred back with us." Helen hesitated. She felt that Warren's idea was a better one than hers, and yet the two weeks at the Seaview seemed to stretch out endlessly before her. She felt somehow that Warren couldn't understand how she felt. With bitter resentment at the fact that he was a man and could not understand just how she felt in the matter, she hardly gave him credit for caring for Winifred at all as a father should. She felt somehow in the anguish of the moment that he might have offered to spend his vacation with her parents, and yet she knew that there would not be change enough in a vacation of that sort." "It isn't as if she were older," said Warren, breaking in on her thoughts suddenly. "She has done well so far, and in my estimation it will be better to leave her there until the weather is cooler!" "But, Warren, you said shortly after we came back from the Bluffs. I won't be put off with any indefinite statement like that. If I agree to leave Winifred with mother a little longer it must be only until a certain time. I want to write mother to this effect immediately." "What's the use of getting hysterical about it! I said when the weather was cooler, didn't I? How can I tell just, when I can get off again? You think a man has nothing to do but walk out of the office any time at all, don't you? Well, get that idet. out of your head." "Can you tell me about when you will go?" said Helen as calmly as she could. "Not for three or four weeks after we get back. Anyway, probably about the last of September." "If you can't get away until then will you be willing for me to go alone? I haven't been out to see mother since before Christinas, and she has written for me to come out several times." "Can't you wait until then? What's the use of being in such an all fired hurry. You women are all alike. You

must do everything the minute an idea happens to enter your head." "But Warren don't you understand that I really want Winifred? I don't want to wait a month or two. I'll write mother to bring her on, if you're not willing that I should go out alone." "It's funny, isn't it, that you didn't think of all this before. You get a letter from your mother and your conscience smarts a little in consequence, so you have to go to work and raise a perfect devil of a fuss

just to get your own way about things." "Warren, you're unfair; you know that isn't true," and Helen on the verge of tears got up and left the room suddenly. In her own room she took her mother's letter out of the drawer and hastily skimmed it over. "Winifred sends love to her mummie," were the last words and then a large round wabbly circle meant to indicate a kiss. She thought bitterly of Warren's last words he was bitterly unfair. When had she tried to shirk her duty as regards Winifred? How many times had she spoken about having the child home only to be silenced by Warren's many arguments for leaving here where she was? Oh, it was unbearable. She wondered vaguely how she had been silenced for so long, why she had gone on with the general run of life while her little girl was far away from her. She remembered how she had hated leaving Winifred even to go abroad. And then when she and Warren returned the child had not been well and they had thought it best to keep her out of New York for the Winter. Perhaps Warren didn't want to be bothered with Winifred, she reflected with a start. But no, that couldn't be

possible. She couldn't be unfair to i

him even then. "Would you like to read the letter?" she said, as she walked back to the living room just as if nothing had happened. Warren scrutinized "her closely as she paused for a minute by his chair. Then he took the letter and

anything. Afterward he put It down, still without speaking. "I shall run out to see mother as soon as we get back from your vacation," she said, with sudden decision, and then : "You know, Warren, that I have spoken of having Winifred home many times before now." "I'll take a few days off the first week in September," he said, speaking gruffly, "and we'll go out together." Helen could hardly believe her ears. She might have known that Warren didn't mean what he said. "Why, dear," she said, slipping an arm around his neck impulsively, "that will be wonderful, if you think you can really spare the time." "All right," he growled, shaking off her arm impatiently. "You always do have your own way about everything." RECIPES OF OUR PIONEER MOTHERS for the home treatment of disease were wonderfully dependable. True, they knew nothing of drugs, but owed' their success to the roots, herbs and barks of the field. It is interesting to note that Lydia E. Pinkham s Vegetable Compound, the most successful remedy for female ills we have, was originally prepared for home use from one of these recipes. Its fame has now spread from shore to shore, and thousands of American women now well and strong claim they owe their health and happiness to Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. Advertisement i

Help the Stomach Digest Your Food

When the stomach fails to digest and distribute that which is eaten, the bowels become clogged with a mass of waste and refuse that ferments and generates poisons that are gradually forced into the blood, causing distress and often serious illness. Most people naturally object to the drastic cathartic and purgative agents that shock the system. A mild, gentle laxative, positive in its effect and that will quickly'relieve constipation is Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, sold by druggists at fifty cents and one dollar a bottle. It does not gripe or cramp, but acts easily ad pleasantly and is therefore the most satisfactory remedy for children, women and elderly persons. For a free trial bottle write to Dr. W. B. Caldwell, 451 Washington St., Monticello, 111.

Every osse Cam MOW Afillordl Electric LfigM Electricity is no longer a luxury to be enjoyed by the rich only. Its price has been lowered until all may enjoy its advantages. This condition has , been brought about by the City LlfljM Pnauntt

Before the advent of the CITY LIGHT PLANT electricity was so high that mighty few homes could afford it. The family housewife, no matter how much she longed for electric light and other electrical conveniences, was compelled to go along in the old way, suffering all inconveniences of washing and filling greasy, ill-smelling lamps, trimming wicks, etc. But with the coming of the City Light Plant there also came a reduction in the price of electric current. Since then electricity has gradually but surely been reduced until it is now in almost universal use it is in universal demand. In the face of what THE CITY LIGHT PLANT has done for the city and for you either directly or indirectly, we ask you is it not to your interest to patronize the City Light Plant?
