AN OBSTACLE EASILY SUR
MOUNTED,

There are no doubt, insurElounlab,e
obstacles. But mat barrier TO the en-
Joyment of health. chronic constipa-
ton, is not among them. And this for
the reason that there is a thorough,
prompt and non-griping medicinal
agent, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters,
adapted to its relief, as well as to the
removal of those bilious and dyspeptic
symptoms which accompany it. Vio-
lent purgatives. whether mineral or
vegetable. weaken the bowels and dis,
order the stomach. The Bitters, on the
contrary. strengthens and regulates
them both. Moreover, it tranquilizes
the nervous system. and is a cure for
and medicinal safeguard against kid
ney and malarial complaints. 1t is a
most genial and effective tonic. coun-
tcracts the innrmities of age. and pro-
notes convalescence. Sleep and appe-
tie are both benefited by its use. 1t is
a standard remedy endorsed by the en-,
tire medical fraternity.

She paused again, breathing heavily.

She paused again, breathing heavily.
In the freight Mrs. behring's black
eyes flashed, like those Of a panther
about to spring. She stood, resting one
hand upon her lips, and the other
pressed, palm-flat, to her cheek.
The young man leaned with folded
arms against the wall, and the red
blood, showing easily through his fair
skin, flashed in crimson patches on his
face.
AS his wife stopped in her torrent of
speech he caught up her words: but
again she forced him into silence.
Innocent! OF course, l know you
are. Do you think I could love you as
I do II l doubted it? But there's no
time to lose; when those men come
they must find us ready. We will barri-
cade the house and hold out as long as
there is a cartridge left" She tossed
her head, adding: I am not the grand
daughter of a revolutionary officer for
nothing"
Then she turned suddenly INT began
to fasten the wooden shutters. Deer
ing leaped to her assistance.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear
There is only one way to cure Deafress
and that is by constitutional remedies
Deafness is caused by an infamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube When this tube gets
infamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by catarrh. which is nothing but an
infamed condition of the mucous sur
faces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of deafness Caused by ca
tarrhl that cannot be cured by Halls
Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars free.

Mr.. WHEELER'S PLAN.
What He Would Like to Do With Street
Railway Franchise.

w. FL. Wheeler is perfecting his plans
with reference to the proposed request
to be made of the common council for a
street railway and electric lighting
franchise. He has plan which we be-
lieve will be more to the liking Of our
people. There is every reason to be-
lieve that he will be ready to ask for it
by the time the council holds its next
meeting. His scheme will be to unite
the project of an electric light plant and
a street. railway in such a way that both
can be run in connection with the pres
ent power house for the water works, to
be built on the same plan as was the
water works plant.
His plan is to build close to the pres
ent power house, put in a high duty
engine which will operate everything,
including the pumps, so as to make the
consumption Of coal just as Light as
possible.
The plan contemplates six or seven
miles of railroad, devoted to nothing
but passenger services, and to be laid
out so that if a through line is desired
by Kenosha permission can be given to
run through on the city tracks, the
power to be furnished by the city at
reasonable sum, depending on the
amount of power used and the business
done. In this way the city would al
ways have the power to regulate what
goes through it's streets.
At first blush this might seem to be
big thing, and very costly to the city.
It would be directly the opposite.
Here are few figures which may be
given to show that in the estimate of
expenses and revenue for the combined
plants there would only be net cost
to the city at the start, the most cost
ly time-of $500 per year, without
counting on any revenue from the street
railway, except enough to pay the
mOtOrmen.
The estimate is on a plant to cost
$4,000, with power enough to supply
the needs of city Of 10000 people.
The city now pays almost $1,000 for
lighting. On the necessary extension
of the lighting service and on an all
night service there is no possibility of
getting a bid from any private COM
pany of less than $4,000 per year.
Now take these figures:

In olden Times.

People overlooked the Importance of
permanently beneficial effects and were
satisfied with transient action; but now
that it is generally known that Syrup
of Figs will permanently cure habitual
constipation, well-informed people will
not buy other laXatiyes, which act for
a time, but finally injure the system.

The New Year.

Once more afresh we start on life's stern
journey,
With what adventure fraught we little know;
Neither the joys nor fears nor varied hap
penings,
Fated to meet us as our way we go.
The comrades whom with us today are
marching,
May ere the roll call sounds be lying low;
And this New Year conclude our earthly wan
derings,
Before again the snow-drops pierce the snow.
Only ahead we hear the songs of spring time,
AS on the,April breeze the blossoms blow;
A wild rose sends it's summer fragrance to US,
And through theautumn fields the cleaners go
