T hose lovely <1. »i ( light-tinted shades that looked so fresh and dainty when you first put them up, are they soiled and marked with ugly finger prints? Old-fashioned window shades are sure to gel soiled and dingy in a short time, localise one has to take hold of them so often in letting them up and down. Constant pulling weakens the fabric also. Not so with “Cu-Co" Springlcss Shades. After pu'sing them up, you need never touch the shade again. A single cord at the side controls the upward and downward movement. “Cu-Co” Shades are fresh and clean long after the dld-fashioned shade would have been smirched and smeared. Be cause they are “Springiest," “Cu-Co” Shades never fly up, and you can’t have the annoyance of a shade “that won’t go either way.” “Cu-Co” Shades hang straight, and roll evenly. Made in all grades of materials from the cheapest water colors to the finest cambrics and linens, and in a variety of tints to harmonize with any scheme of decoration. Built to last as long as the house. M!M@ Their slight additional cost is insignificant in comparison with their added convenience and wearing qualities. Special orders can be filled promptly.

Whig candidate. A hot com- paign followed. Harrison had lived in log cabins and was liberal with llaru cider, so his boosters erected log cabins all over ;:ie country and made much scandal by "the terrible amount of hard cider drunk at the political meetings in them.” Harrison was elected and the hit ter political fight died off in a na t.onal laugh at the one vote receiv ed in t.lic electoral college by .las. K. Folk, aspirant for the vicc-presi dency. Four 'years later at the Democrat ic convention in Philadelphia, Van Buren had a majority on the, first ballot. A majority of two thirds be ing necessary to nominate, his name .vas withdrawn after the Sth ballot. Out trotted Polk, the first American presidential dark horse and tne ninth vote was unanimous for him. He was elected president. Tip Democratic convention in Baltimore, 1852 got deadlocked. Al ter 35 ballotings. in came Dark Horse Franklin Pierce. The forty- ninth ballot unanimously made him candidate. He became president, defeating General Scott and carry ing ail hut four states. This dark horse’s race for the presidency almost caused civil war. He got only 4.033,295 votes against Tilden s 4,284,265 and Tilden had a majority cf 157,397 votes over his combined opposition. But in the electoral college Hays had 185 vot es against Tilden’s 184. To settle argument an eWtoral commission was created by special law. It consisted of five from the Republi can senate, five from the Democrat ic house and five from the supreme court. Hays won the decision. in the Republican convention of | 1860, two thirds of the delegates j were pledged for William H. Sew ard. Seward was the giant of his party. Greely was out. hammer and tongs to lick him. After much bal loting the convention unanimously endorsed the greatest of all dark horses—Abraham Lincoln—who was then little known outside his own states, and in the east was ridiculed In 1888 the republican national convention was in fhicago. The first ballot showed this vote: Grant 804. Blaine 2S4. Sherman 98, Ed munds 84, Washburne 80 Windom 10. A ferocious political fight burst forth. On the 86th and final ballot.
