When men and maidens seek the sport They find around the tennis court, Or when upon the diamond field Their bats the champion players wield. When walks, or rides, or bending oars, Bring perspiration from the pores, Then people all should bear in mind The best and purest soap to find, For after some such exercise The system most in danger lies, Absorbing then both swift and sure The poisons found in soaps impure, And those who keep for face and hands Or general use as time demands, The Ivory Soap, need have no fear From exercise throughout the year. A WORD OF WARNING. There are many white soaps, each represented to be "just as good as the 'Ivory j" they ARE NOT, but like all counterfeits, lack the peculiar and remarkable qualities of the genuine, Ask for "Ivory" Soap and insist upon getting it.

No Packed Conventions, No Polit ical Bosses. Mem Paid by the State for Doing Foraker's Political Work. Public Institutions and Official Boards Prostituted to His Base Ends. General Beatty has however, in sisted upon making excuses for him difficult, and at last seems to have committed himself entirely to a course which must deprive him of the good feeling which has survived his eccentricities, for certainly no Republican will care to aid in the applause by the Democratic editors for the wild and vicious fury displayed in attacking the governor of Ohio, in the midst of a contest tnat is oi tne nignest impor tance in the state and possesses na tional significance. No man can afford to make a personal matter, and tafte vengeance upon those conspicuous tn favor, when he is subjected to the sharp trial of . public neglect, for It confesses weakness and advertises woe; and if General Beatty has not been as highly regarded as others by the Re publicans or Uhlo tne fault is witn himself." Cincinnati Commercial Ga zette. ; ; ' There are at least two thoughts suggested by the above extract from a Commercial Gazette editorial which it may not be unprofitable to enlarge upon. 1. is this contest bo important to either the state or nation that the re publicans of Uhio should accept a candidate from a packed .convention; submit to the dictation of such no torious ringsters as George B. Cox, reward double-dealing with the first omce of the Btate, and abandon a time-honored usage by making a dangerous third term precedent?. I think not. , ; What shall we . lose by defeating the man who nominated himself while professing not to be a candidate? Nothing. If successful he can neither make a law nor elect a senator. The general assembly will have these im port ant duties to perform and will, l doubt not, perform them to the satis faction of a majority of the people of the state. A .Democratic governor, while treated fairly by a Republican senate, would be permitted to do no harm, even if so inclined. The legis lature would be more likely to scru tinize his appointments and business methods more closely, than those of one with whom it was in political sympathy, and this constant vigilance could not be other than beneficial to the best interests of the people. But. waiving all this, let us for the sake of argument admit what is not at all probable, that orakers defeat would carry down the whole state ticket and give to our political ene mies a majority in both branches ot the legislature. Then what is our dutyt I answer, to strike him from the ticket! There is no injury Democratic General Assembly could inflict that would compare in enormity with the harm the republicans of Ohio would do the state and party, if, by their votes, they recognized caucua 33 king, tricksters as leaders, I ' . . . , ... i treachery as commendable and a third successive term for the chief executive of state or nation as justifiable. By putting the seal of their approbation upon inese wings mey wuuiu, m effect, surrender control of the party to the worst element of our great cities, and to all intents and purposes disfranchise the rural population o the state. While the great mass o: farmers, mechanics, tradesmen and laborers were quietly attending to their own business, boss Forakers, boss Coxes and scores of subordinate bosses would organize to perpetuate themselves or their patrons in omce, and the public treasury would indirectly, if not directly, supply the means necessc r for the consummation of the disigns. Governor Foraker permits men in the public service to abandon their regular duties and, while drawing salaries from the public treasury, de vote sixteen hours out of the twenty- four to the party machine Whose m spent in thia case.

When, under Governor Hayes, Captain Wikoff was selected as the chairman of the Republican state executive committee, his resignation of adjutant general was immediately tendered, ac cepted, and his name stnc&en rrom the state's pay roll. Hayes had his faults, but knew what honesty and decent respect for the opinions mankind required. He would neither steal himself nor allow his appointees to do so by taking pay from the whole people while rendering party service, and seeking to promote their own private interests. But is this all? No it is not even sne'E'estion of the extent to which al recognized rules of the civil service have been tramped under foot in Ohio. An army of appointees have been selected by Foraker, not for the public good, but for personal ends. Uox. who holds tne ricnest omce ine governor has to bestow, Graydon and others come marenmg up to tne state convention at the head of a delegation of ringsters to make payment for their offices in personal service, Grosvenor and Lloyd, good m,en and; gallant soldiers, are driven from. he board of a charitable institution, not because, they have been neglectful of duty, but hecause they could not be used to advance the governor's politi-. cal schemes. But this even fails to suggest the extent to which executive patronage has been used to subserve personal ends. The asylums, the penal and correctional institutions the election boards and boards of public affairs and scores of other places, honorary and otherwise, have been prostituted to the same ; base ends. If the prod and whip were as effective on all as they are upon the majority, there would be no improvement for there would be no defeats. But, fortunately, there is an independent element in the state which cannot be coerced. It is ready to strike back when struck. It realizes to the full, the responsibilities of the citizen. It recognizes the value and power of free speech. It entertains robust contempt for the party hack, the word striker, the flippant dema gogue and the paid putter, it respects the caucus when it adheres to fair methods and executes the popular will, but not when seized by ruffians and prostituted to personal ends. This independent element has its am bitions and its hopes of honorable recognition, but holds them subject to decent methods and good ends. It does not insist on perfection, but does demand fair dealing. It looks up to the best men for advice and eadership, and not down to the slums of the great cities. It holds office to be a public trust and not a private perquisite. It looks upon the public officer as a public servant and not as party:, boss. It considers public money , the property of the whole peo ple, and not a thing to be squandered in salaries on party committeemen, Suffers, and convention packers. It emands that appointments shall be made for the good of the state and as rewards for personal service. You may call these independent voters kickers, scratchers, sore-heads, or what you will; they are indifferent to all such attacks. , . This is a free country in thery, and, to the man who owns himself, it is free in fact. The hour has come for the Repub licans of Ohio to lift up the old-time standard of their , party, and to inscribe upon it, no third term, no packed . conventions, no political bosses, no unfair methods, no party rings, and no peddling out of exe cutive appointments for private ends.

The funeral was conducted from his residence to the church in which he had ministered to his congregation and thence to burial in Wood land uemetery. Rev. Bolz was not extensively known to the people of Van Wert, bnt nevertheless he was one of onr most intelligent citizen?. Educated in tbe German, he was a cultured gentleman, a fine scholar, a faithful pastor, a good preacher, a humble and exemplary christian man. He was a noble man. Those who knew him loved and appreciated him. In his decease, the wife has lost an affectionate and noble husband, a daughter a ten der, loving and helpful father; and a sister an intelligent and honored brother; a congregation a gifted and devoted pastor; the pastors of Van Wert an interested and hearty co-laborer and all who knew him a pleasant friend. He has eone from these ne'er to return. But although that departure was by death yet what is our loss is his gain. For truly was it to him: "For me to live is Christ, and to die is gain." He was a true Boldier of the blessed Captain, King Emanuel. He was a line officer upon the front and was engaged actively in the fray against Sin and unrighteousness, He was alive to the reforms of our country and to-day and intelligently. modestly, but most firmly he met and encountered the evils of the day from his pul- Dit and in his pastoral wore. Pastor Bolz engaged in his first ministerial labor by becoming the pastor of the congregation of the German Evangelical Synod in Van Wert, sixteen years ago. After serving this congregation two years he removed to Indiana, where he prosecuted his work of the ministry among the people with much success for six years. Thence he removed to Tiffin, O.. where he served his congrega tion with great acceptance, and was beloved by all his ministerial brethren. At Tiffin his health began to fail seriously and turning back to van wert, ms nrst Dome mine min istry, he was urged by the meaabers to take charge of the congregation again, perfectly satished to accept ana enjoy ms laitnf ui ser vice in his impaired health. Here for two years be performed his duties faithfully with all his falling strength. At length he laid his armor down to await the home march. He rested from his labor early in June and then went forward a conqueror August 25th. Pastor J. F. Bolz was born in Bader, Germany in 1846. He died in Van Wertt ()., Aug. 25, 1888, aged 43 years and a few months. He was educated for the ministry in the Theological Seminary at St. Louis, Mo., ana entered tne active ministry in 1873. The services of the funeral were conducted by pastor Stillig, of Leslie and the addresses were delivered by Rev. Betts, of Kenton, in German and Rev. W. H. Lilly, of Van Wert, in English.

The Navy Department has several very interesting and complicated questions to worry over just at this time. First, there is the big battle ship, "Texas," being buUt at the Norfolk Navy Yard, which many experts contend will not float if completed by the present plans; and as if that was not enough, there are three new vessels, "Petrel," "Vesuvius," and "Charles ton," which, although completed, have"" for various defects not yet been accept-. ed by the Government.

The movement to make Reed the next Speaker of the House is regarded by the most knowing Republicans as just as good as accomplished. ' The other candidates will be given compli mentary votes, but the bosses have ordered that Reed be elected.

According to Cox, and I cannot doubt anything he says, it's the most wonderful country on earth. Representative Campbell, the Democratic candidate for Governor of Ohio, is extremely popular here, and good wishes are expressed on every hand for him. 7
