Probably the reason for all the con-troversy us to the antiquity of specula-tive Masonry, and its being traceableonly back to 1717, Is due to the fact that

before Its crystallization Into the grandlodge system there were no records kept,

as there cOTld not have been the leastnecessity for them. Ifwe tukcas a sug-gestion our ritualistic teaching, handeddown the ages, that "the ground Hoor ol'King Solomons temple was a mosaicpavement," when until a few monthsago all Masons knew, or thought theyknew, that It was not a mosaic pave-ment at all, and then recall that lateexcuv.ations show that the plain floorthought to be that of the original tem-ple proved to be v Inter one sixteen feetabove the original one, which was amosaic pavement, and part of which thegrand lodge of Virginia has in Itifpos-session, we will see that there must beSomething in our traditions proving theirantiquity. There are many other things,the meaning of which is lost, which wecould trace up easily ifour history onlydated from 1717.

Wild Cat Speculation and GamblingFol-lowed by Smash of Banks

Mines in old Mexico, bogus deals In realestate, stock and even race-track gamblingare, as recent disclosures following banksmash-ups In New York show, all ln theline of the runners of "bucket shops" ona gigantic scale In that city anil elsewhere,who have controlled many millions of gul-lible people's money. But there Is a linoof investment which has something morethan a speculative prospect of success,and that is an investment in Hostetter'sStomach Bitters, if you are troubled withconstipation, biliousness, malaria, kidneytrouble, or loss of strength or nerve qui-etude. Security against disease, no lessthan delivery from its clutches, is assuredto those who seek the aid of this peerlesspreventive, ln the preliminary stages ofrheumatism, a disease difficult of annihila-tion In its chronic phase, and always dan-gerous because it is prone to attack theheart, the Bitters are a most desirablesubstitute for the poisons ineffectuallyused to eradicate It.

IT IS NOT A GAMBLE

Itis a guess, and ifyou guess rightyou can have a teacup full of goldnuggets,just as they were taken outof the Klondike diggings. Actpromptly?December Ist is the limitas to time.

The Daily Herald should receivefive thousand subscribers before De-cember Ist, each should pay seventyfive cents and make a guess on thegold nugget contest. Some one willget that gold?sßo worth on that day.Itmay be you, reader.
