Gladness Comes

MIith better understanding of the
w transient nature of the many phys
ical ills, which vanish before proper eff
forts-gentle efforts-pleasante efforts
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge, that so many forms Of
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to a constipated condi-
ton of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative. Syrup of Figs, prompt
ly removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, andis
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without facilitating the
organs on which it acts. 1t is therefore
all important, in order to get it's bene-
fetal effects, to note when you pur-
chase, that you have the genuine arti-
Gle, which is manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by
all reputable druggists
If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, laxatives or
other remedies are then not needed. If
afflicted with any actual disease, one
may be commended TO the most skillful
physicians, but if in need of a laxative,
one should have the best, and with the
well-informed everywhere, Syrup of
Fies stands highest and is most largely

descent lights would rather suggest
that he was going to charge about so
cents per month for the 16 candle
power lamps. This price is Is cents
lower than proposed to be charged by
the Westinghouse Electric Light Co.,
in case they asked for franchise, and
seems to be as low, or lower, than in
the cities around Redwood Falls hav-
ing electric light plants. It is not de-
finitely known that this will be the ex-
act price, but it will not deviate one
way or the other very much, and the
probabilities are that it will not be
lower. Those who are opposed to
paying this price for the lights can
have meter put into their places and
pay for the light as they use it-one
cent per lamp per hour, or about that
price. The meter system seems to be
in favor.
Mr.. Burmeister is already receiving
applications from resident owners to
string their houses preparatory to
lighting them by electricity. The
mode is not only great convenience
to the house, but it saves the busy
housewife great deal of work in the
line of cleaning lamp chimneys, filing
lamps, etc. Each residence can have
as many lamps as the owner chooses,
and if they are run by the meter sys-
tenn, only those in use at any one time
will have to be paid for.

ELECTRIC LIGHTS.
Council Figuring from an EConom-
iCa1 Standpoint.

The city council held special meet
ing last Saturday evening and after
granting liquor license to Martin
Lohrenz, who is to continue at John
Franks saloon, the members talked
over the matter of lighting the city by
electricity as soon as Mr.. Burmeister
gets his plant in operation.
Mr.. Burmeister was present and he
offered to run the arc lights of 500
candle power from twilight until IL
o'clock at the rate of So per month,
and also to run 30 candle power mean
descent lights at the rate of ST. per
month. The council, of course, does
not expect to light the entire city by
the arc system, but members seem to
be of the opinion that the business
portion of the city should be we'll
lighted by the arc system that is,
from four to five of these arc lights at
the outset, and then if there is a de-
mand to increase the same. In the
resident portion of the city the council
seems to be Of the opinion that the 80
candle power incandescent lights
should be used, one for every corner
where there is street lamp at the
present time, or even more numerous.
The council will hold another meet
ing tomorrow evening, at which time
they will probably definitely decide on
just how many lamps the financial
condition of the city will warrant.

meister for the 30-candle power mean

A NEW SEPARATOR.

M. U. Hathaway has novelty in
the line of grain and grass separator,
grader and cleaner. He gave an ex-
hibition of it's work one day last week
to a large number of persons interest
ed in the standard of the machine and
it did all that the manufacturers claim
for it, and those who saw it work we're
of the opinion that it went beyond the
manufacturers claim. The separator
will allow any person to mix up any
number OF kinds of small grain, and
then have the same pass through its
many intricate parts, the seed coming
out in separate measures, perfectly
cleaned, separated and graded. All
this is accomplished without any blast
of air or the change of a sieve, thus
saving the trouble of any changing of
the machine, and makes it easily oper-
ated. The separator, it is claimed,
will separate any kind of seed from
any other kind and it has many points
of superiority easily detected by the
eye of the farmer, who will use it the
most. It is handy machine to have
on the farm and in the granary and
elevator. It will save money by in
creasing grades of wheat, ETC., and
should be the property of every per-
son in the grain business. Call for
