It is recommended by the committee that sep
arate contentions be held within each congres
sional district for the purpose of electing the two
district delegates. In case of the failure of the
electors of any district to elect the delegates to
which they are entitled, and In conformity to the
call of the national committee, the delegates
elected to the state convention from such district
will be authorized to meet in separate conven
tion and elect said delegates. It is recommend
ed that in such counties as have changed their
political subdivisions by the organization of new
precincts, or the adoption of township organi
zation since the last election, the appointment of
delegates to the couuty contention be made in
accordance with the old precinct boundaries.
It is secommended that no proxies be admitted
to the convention, except such as are held by
persons residing in the counties from which
proxies are given.

BULWER LYTTON'S BRIDGE.
Where it Touches the Shores and the Great
Columns in Midstream.
'What a beautiful bridge between
old age and childhood is religion. How
intuitively the child begins with prayer
and worship on entering life, and how
intuitively, on quitting life, the old
man turns back to prayer and worship,
putting himself again side by side with
the infant," remarks Sir E. Bulwer
Lytton, in his "Strange Story."
"Yes. but between its distant abut
ments the bridge of life has many high
and awful arches, through which the
wild waters dash and roar in wrath
- and desolation. Prayer and worship
alone do not sustain these. Nature's
solid rocks must lie unshaken beneath,
and human art and skill must rear ami
solidify the structure overhead. God's
will is best exemplified in the laws He
has made for the creatures whom He
has placed under their control. Neither
the child's trustful "Our Father," nor
the old man's "Forget me not in the
midst of mine infirmities" will alter
this by the weight of a single grain.
Science and art first then faith and
prayer is the order of Heaven itself.
Divinity heals through its agents, and
those agents are the discoveries of
man; not the vague announcements of
prophets or seers. Is life a burden to
you? Does time drag? Is'your power
to cope with life's problem and duties
weakened. You are not well. Your
blopd is sluggish and tainted, perhaps ;
or some organ is torpid or overworked.
This fact may have taken the form of
dyspepsia, rheumatism, gout, malaria,
pains in the stomach, chronic head
ohe, or any of a dozen other ills.
Parker'sTonic will invigorate you, as
fresh air invigorates those who have
beeri shut up in damp, fetid cells. It'
is powerful, pure, delicious, scientific,
safe the keystone of the central arch
. of the bridge of life.
