RATES OF TAXATION.

The prevailing depression in bust
ness, of all kinds, has made our rate Of
taxation of late severe burden for oul
people to bear. And it becomes oul
duties to relieve them as much as
possible, an at the same time not lei
improvements cease altogether, In
addition to the public rate, many have
been obliged to meet heavy special
taxes, by reason of paving and the
extension of sewers. To do this-tc
keep within the limits of the amount
that has been bequeathed to us, by oul
predecessors-we will be obliged tC
maintain the most rigid economy in al
departments of the city's growth.
With the growth of the town in pop
ulation, there should be an increase ir
wealth and a decrease in the rate Of
taxation. Unfortunately, however, the
rate of taxation increases, here, as wei
as in other places. For this remedy
must be found and applied, or evi
consequences will surely follow in tn
near future.

Bad Habits Make Man Act Like He Was
Under a Spell


A man will try TO convince himself
by arguments so poorly founded that
if they were presented by another they
would be treated with contempt. AS
an instance: He may be ailing from the
heavy poison Of tobacco, or the lighter
poison of coffee, the weakened condi-
tiou will show somewhere in the body:
eyes, head, stomach, heart, liver,
bowels, or somewhere. His doctor
tells him to stop the habit, but each
day the thought comes, 0 coffee and
tobacco don't hurt me, its my stomach
that is at fault; Til have that cured
and everything will be all right" so he
keeps on with his habits, and goes to
drugging a poor old stomach that
would do it's work beautifully if the
master would furnish enough vitality
to run it, but he poisons his nervous
system and robs the members of
strength to carry on their work. When
man wakes up to what he is doing,
exchanging his health and chance to
succeed in this world, for, paltry
habit or two, he quits them and follows
natures wise laws.
1t is easy to give up coffee if one can
have Postum, the Food Coffee, which
is fac-simile in looks of fine Mocha
coffee In taste it retains like pun
gency with coffee, but has distinct
flavor of its own. 1t is made entirely
of pure grains, and has the ability to
make red blood quickly.
Tobacco, morphine, whiskey, strych-
nine and coffee each contain much the
same poisonous alkaloids, but vary in
strength. Postum is a delicious break
fast drink; it is fattenipg and nourish-
ing, for it is made of the grains intend
ed by the Creator for mans natural
use, and scientifically prepared by the
Postum Cereal Co., (Lim.) of Battle
! Creek, Mich.
Beware of the fraudulent limitations
of the original Postum Cereal Food
Coffee. Insist on Postum.
