Ed P. Geers, familiarly known as "Pop" on the racing tracks in the grand circuit, and best known racing driver in the country, has never driven a trotter or pacer a mile in two minutes or better. "Pop" is the veteran of the trotting and pacing game, and has been campaigning on the grand circuit since 1880, during which time he has amassed a fortune from the large stakes he has won. But he wants the honor of circling the track in even time. However, good judges of speed horses say that Geers probably will turn the trick thi3 year with the pacer Napoleon Direct, who already has a mark of 2:00.

RECEPTION GIVEN

Continued From Page One. H. Hitchcock,, former postmaster general, and active Hughes ambassador. Hitchcock Arouses Ire. Mr. Hitchcock has talked freely since his arrival in Chicago. He has told everybody that the silent justice will accept the nomination if it is offered him, and he has Intimated, either directly or indirectly, that he (Hitchcock) is going to be the "big man" in the Hughes campaign after his nomination. This has been resented by other Hughes boomers. The resentment has become so acute, according to reliable information, that an attempt has been made to get Justice Hughes' personal views on the activities of Mr. Hitchcock. The story was widely circulated about the hotels today that Justice Hughes was called over the long distance telephone from Chicago with this object in view. The name of the man who called was not divulged. Secretary Answers Call. At all events, the story goes, the justice's secretary answered the telephone, and to all questions replied

merely this: "Justice Hughes cannot be disturbed ! by the matter at this time." I Whether the story is true or not, i

it afforded food for much conversation and speculation among the political camps today. Colonel Roosevelt is the only candidate who has more than one lodge in Chicago. In addition to the solid Progressive support there was today two so-called Republican elements working hard for his nomination. One was the Roosevelt-Republican division, comprised principally of Illinois Republicans, who refuse to support Sherman. The other was the Roosevelt non-partisan wing, composed of general Roosevelt supporters without regard to party.

Says An Inside Bath, Before Breakfast Helps Us Look and Feel Clean, Sweet, Fresh.

Sparkling and vivacious merry, bright, alert a good, clear skin and a natural, rosy, healthy complexion are assured only ty pure blood. If only every man and woman could be induced to adopt the morning inside bath, what a gratifying change would take place. Instead of the thousands of tickly, anaemic-looking men, women and girls, with pasty or muddy complexions, instead of the multitudes of "nerve wrecks." "rundowns," "brain fags," and pessimists we should see a virile, optimistic throng of rosycheeked people everywhere. An inside bath is had by drinking each morning, before breakfast, a glass of real hot water with a teaspoonful of limestone phosphate in it to wash from the stomach, liver, kidneys and ten yards of bowels the previous day's indigestible waste, sour fermentations and poisons. thus cleansing. sweetening and freshening the entire alimentary canal before putting more food into the stomach. Those subject to sick headache, biliousness, nasty breath, rheumatism, colds; and particularly those who have a pallid, sallow complexion and who are constipated very often, are urged to obtain a quarter pound of limestone phosphate at the drug store which will cost but a trifle, but is sufficient to demonstrate the quick and remarkable change in both health and appearance, awaiting those who practice internal sanitation. We must remem-bi.-that inside cleanliness is more important than outsHe, because the skin does not absorb ii '.purities to contaminate the blood Thile the pores in the thirty feet of bowels do. s - . ...
