grand jury report on our county

provements, and an honor (put dis
before that word if prepared) to
Bates county, one of the finest coun-
ties in the state; and we would also
reccomend that other counties hav-
ing prisoners they wish toget rid OF
and have not evidence enough to
hang them, that they be respectfully
solicited to send them to our well
ventilated Jail. to kill them by de.
grees. We would also invite coun-
ties contemplating building Jail tc
examine our building and get plans
specifications, etc. All of which is
respectfully submitted

That Little Tickling

In your throat, which makes you
cough once in q while and keeps you
constantly clearing your throat,
arises from catarrh, and as catarrh |
is constitutional disease the ordi- |
nary cough medicines all fail to hit |
the spot. What you need is a con-
stitutional remedy like Hoods Sar-
saparilla. Many people who have
taken this medicine for scrofula. dys-
pepsia, loss of appetite, and other
troubles, have been surprised that it
should cure this troublesome cough.
But to know the actual cause of the
cough is to solve the mystery. Many
cases OF consumption can be traced
back to the neglect of some such
slight affection as this. Consump
tio1 can be controlled in it's early
stages, and the effect of Hoods Sar-
saparilla in purifying the blood,
building up the general health, and
expelling the scrofulous faint which
is the cause of catarrh and consump-
ton, has restored to perfect health,
many persons on whom this dreaded
disease seemed to have a firm hold

but to assure her of his innocence of any

For moment she turned her face

SO far from being piqued and Jealous

simply past all comprehension" by
Frightening up instantly and expressing
