DEAR SIRs:
Having examined the formula for
your Zahnite and Zahnite Powder, I
can confidently recommend them for
keeping the teeth and gums in a
healthful condition. They contain
nothing injurious to the teeth or the
health of the user.
Ihave recently examined the mouth

several months, and found it in excel
lent condition.

ALnOST HUnAN.

We take the following from the
Massachusetts Ploughman"
Farmer William H. Ellis, of Bloom
ingburg, N. Y, owns little white mare
called Whitefoot. Every school-day
morning Whitefoot hauls Mr. Ellis's
two little girls in a wagon to the school
house, mile from home, and after
leaving the children there the little
mare turns round and trots back to her
masters house without any driver
When the school-closing hour ap-
proaches, Mr.. Ellis hitches Whitefoot
up and starts her off alone for the
school-house and in due time she comes
back with the little girls. She is so
careful and expert in passing vehicles
on the road that she never has a colli-
sion or damages her harness.
On Sunday night last Mr.. Ellis's hired
man drove Whitefoot over to Middle
ton on his way to New York. Before
embarking on the cars here he tackled
piece of paper on the wagon seat
containing this notice: "Don't stop
this mare. She belongs TO William H.
Ellis, Bloomingburg, and will 90 home
all right and then, turning the mares
head homeward, he let her go. Sure
enough, she covered the distance, a
long nine miles, in safety, and at pace
that brought her home in about an
hour.

10000 Water=r1elOnS.

A few years ago Frank Whitrock
bought so acres of land two miles east
of this city. It was wild land covered
with timber. He now has most of it
cleared. While he grows all kinds of
crops, he makes specially of water
and musk melons. This year he has
planted y acres to melons. While the
season has been quite dry he estimates
a crop Of about 10000 salable melons.
Had the season been wet he would have
had at least 10000 on the same acreage.
1t is we'll worth anyone's time to
drive out to his place, look it over and
you will agree with the writer that he
has carved out of the dense woods a
beautiful and comfortable home with
pleasant surroundings. Very few
people in this state have seen y acres
of melons in one patch. Drive out and
see for yourselves.

Yellowstone National Park.

The lecture on the wonders of the
Yellowstone National Park, given
Thursday evening at Opera House, was
well attended considering the warm
weather. Mr.. Hanscom is an interest
ing speaker and his steTeopticon views
the finest ever shown IN this city. He
commenced his lecture with view of
the old Dewitt and Clinton" the first
train ever run on the New York Central
railroad. The Empire Express" was
next shown running sixty-five miles an
hour between New York, Boston and
Buffalo. Chicago was then touched
upon, followed by some very fine views
from the Dalles of the Wisconsin, and
also views on the upper Mississippi
river along the line of the c., NJ. & st.
z. r. r. The park views and those
leading up to that famous wonderland
on the line of the Northern Pacific
were superb in every respect. Each
view was given a good oral description
by the speaker.
The entertainment lasted about one
hour and half. Everybody was well
pleased and went away feeling that it
was the next best thing to an actual trip
through the worlds greatest wonder
land. Those who failed to hear him
and see his views missed rare treat.

Observation-Disclosures Again.

The total combined valuation of
Centralia and Grand Rapids is only
S530,9 while the statements of the
banking institutions of the two towns
show actual cash continually on deposit
to be nearly as much as the total valua-
ton of all real and personal property
in the two cities, as apportioned by the
county board. What better evidence
is there of the wealth of town than is
shown in its bank statements. 1t is
safe basis upon which to work and is
always consulted in making up an
estimate. The banks of the twins
show deposits from the two towns to
be four times as large as ours and yet
their taxable valuation is only about
one-slXth greater. Here is something
tangible to work on and one cannot
help but come to the conclusion that
there is some great tax dodging done at
the lower end of the county. Our
valuation is four times as great as our
bank deposits, while there the deposits
are equal to total valuation apportioned
to them for all personal property and
real estate. Here is food for thought
and one of the reasons why we think
we are getting the worst of it. What
do you think Of it, dear Reporter?
When you satisfactorily answer this we
Will give you few more nuts to crack,
and there are lots of them to crack
which are going to be laid wide open.
You may call this jumping on your
towns, but any fair minded person will
say that it is simply fight for our
rights. We admit that you are richer
than we, but we must insist that you
stop Observation-Disclosures News.
In reply to our comparison of valua-
tions between the Twin Cities and
Marshfeld, Adam Paulus, of the News,
says considerable, but only the above
is deserving of a reply. He, Paulus,
don't stop for moment to think that
perhaps the banks here may represent
the deposits of several neighboring
concerns like the John Edwards Mfg.
Co., of the town of Port Edwards; the
Nekoosa Paper Co., Of the town of Port
Edwards; J. w. Cameron, of Milwau-
kee, but formerly of Vesper, who has
stock and deposits in the First National
bank; Clark & Scott, of Rudolph, who
do their banking here; Roenus &
Uhling, of Seneca, who are stockholders
and depositors in the Wood County
National Bank; and many others whom
we might mention. Should their
deposits in our local banks for their
convenience in the transaction of bust
ness be taxed to the people Of the Twin
Cities. My dear wise man Paulus of
the Marshfeld News, please answer?
Talk of being silly, if the people will
be allowed to judge as to who is the
s1llier we are not worried over the
comparison. If Marshfeld always
pays her share of the burdens of county
taxes upon the actual valuation of her
property as the Twin Cities have
always done in the past and are doing
now, she will have the thanks of a
suffering people.
Brother Paulus, if [ were you, l
would stop Dragging of Marshfeld
population, etc. ''larger than the twins
and asmall neighboring city," especially
while the Twins alone are paying taxes
upon a valuation of 100000 greater
than the city of Marshfeld.

A Word of Caution.

The girl that gives way to desire to
run about the streets and cultivate the
acquaintance of young men, nd act
the simpering simpleton, is laying the
the foundation for senseless after life.
Ten to one when married she will
develop into slatternly gossip, if no
greater misfortune befails her. It is
the girl with good sound sense, the girl
who loves home and helps her mother,
who wins the model man and becomes
an ornament to womanhood. The girl
who does this and devotes some Of her
spare time to reading, and strives for
the graces of mental culture, commands
the respect and esteem of everybody,
while the street walking ornament only
wins the admiration of those whose
admiration is not worth kesting.-Home

Delightful "Picnic" Weather.

A party consisting of Mr.. and Mrs.
II. III. Voss, Mr.. and Mrs. Geo. B.
Brazeau, Mr.. and Mrs. Geo. Martin and
son, Mrs. McReynolds and daughter, of
Mossinee, and Miss Ella Perry, of
Tomah, were picnicing above Biron
Friday. They had their hammocks up
at "Beefsteak Point" and report it a
delightful place for camping and out
door fun.
A jolly company of young ladies were
taken to the pretty banks of the
Wisconsin river above Biron Saturday
afternoon in the Wagonette, and were
left at the old camp Biron site, where
they whiled away several pleasant
hours. Among the many who were
playing tag your scribe noted the
Misses Floy Philleo, Mary Edwards,
Maude Thompson, Ruth Witter, Pearl
St. Amour, Nellie Nash, Olive Thorn,
Ella Hasbrouck, May Norris, Sue Wood.
In the language of the street, they had
a regular ''picnic."
F. J. Wood and son Guy are among
those who have been enjoying little
fishing outings of late at the Biron
resort. They were found Saturday
evening stationed on one Of the stone
piers enjoying a large bonfire and
hearty lunch. One bass was the size of
their catch.
Misses Mae Schall and Carrie Briere,
Messrs. Edward Whitney and Ed. H.
LaVigne were boating and fishing for
few hours Saturday up river on the old
Wisconse. They had picnic lunch at
I p. m. on an improvised table of logs
and pine boards beside blazing fire-a
regular camp supper. Miss Scha1
demonstrated her dexterity with the
fishing rod, making the only catch-a
bass-and in fact the first fish she has
ever hooked.

is a mighty sight better man for his
place than Upham is for governor.
Marshfield Times: Albert Milestone
who died recently at his home In
California, was possibls the largest
piece of humanity that this world ever
knew. When four years-of age he was
the smallest of a family of seven
children. At the age of five he was
scarcely able to walk. When he
reached 20 years he was of enormous
proportions and weighed nearly 800
ponnds. At the time of his death he
weighed 1876 pounds. The coffin in
which he was buried consumed l01 feet
of lumber and was six feet and inches
long, 80 inches wide and 20 inches deep.
The boy spoken of above formerly
lived on farm north of Centralia with
his parents. The farm is now owned
by Mr.. F. W. Young, the cigar manu-
facturer. At the time the family moved
away from here the bows head was
about as large as water pail and at
that time he could not walk.

THOS. B. REID FOR CHAIRMAN.

We have no permission from Mr.
Reid to use his name in connection with
the Craftsmanship Of the Republican
State Central Committee and he has no
knowledge Of our intention. What we
do say may have no weight in causing
his selection, but we know of no law
that can prevent us from making him
our choice for this position.
1t is we'll understood that the release
of treasurers Baetz, kuehn and McFet-
ridge by the last legislature will enter
largely into the next campaign. If the
Republican party wish to succeed in
that campaign they must first correct
their position with the people by
selecting a chairman who has been
openly against their release and is now
still against any further release or the
retunding of moneys already paid by
those bondsmen who were called upon
to pay in the cases of Harshaw and
McFetridge. Further, no Republican
who had any part in such release should
be re-nominated. We are therefore in
favor of chairman who will take such
stand as to correct the wrong already
committed and who will serve as
further guarantee that in so far as his
counsel extends in the shaping of the
policy of the party in the future, it will
be in honesty and fairness with the
people who place them in power.
Thos. B. Reid, Of the Appleton Post,
possesses all these requirements. His
position has been openly opposed to
the release of ex-Treasurers in every
particular. He still holds those same
views. Furthermore he is not handi-
capped by any position where he could
be charged with having some axe to
grind. He is able and capable in every
sense. A man Of wide acquaintance
throughout the state with newspaper
men and politicians. Usually right on
all public questions. A hard worker
and in every way suitable person for
just such work.
After careful thought upon the quail
ficatlons necessary for a good chairman
to possess we are strongly of the
opinion that Tom is lacking in no
particular. Then why not select him?
Bows of the Press what do you think of
it? Let us hear from you.
