County Bonds all Refunded.

Messrs. L. {. Gerling and A. c.
Nadenbousch, at the recent term of
the County Court, completed their
task of refunding the bonds of this
county, thus reducing the annual in
terest charge from $1,000. 90 to 5000
90 They were appointed about two
years ago and gave bond in the sum
of sos, 600 for the faithful perform
ance of their duties
While it was currently reported
that they had an easy task to perform,
such was not the case. The work was
undertaken during the prevalence Of
the panic and the only chance that
appeared to be open was to induce the
Board Of Public Works to invest State
school funds in them. The Governor
favored the project, but the Auditor
and Treasurer were both opposed and
it took some energetic work to accom-
plish the task. The time fixed by
the Legislature in which to do the
work was limited, hence the necessity
for making haste. Again, all had to
be refunded or none and as the Board
of Public Works would not take all, it
was necessary to induce others to in
vest, which was difficult to do, money
being then worth 6 per cent. In or
der to succeed Mr.. Gerling carried
some of the bonds himself for quite a
while.
A few persons have criticised the
County Court for paying what was
charged to be an exorbitant fee, but
considering the magnitude of the un-
dertaking and the expense and work
involved, it was not SO renunerative
as might have been supposed. The
saving for three-fourths of year paid
the cost Of refunding, which should
be satisfactory answer to all COM
plants.

Gave Back
Ny Health.

There is no reason for being Respondent
and considering diseases of the blood
incurable, simply because the treatment
of physicians and many so-called blood
remedies fail to effect a cure. Though
it is naturally disheartening to the suf-
ferer who faithfully takes the prescribed
treatment of the physicians, often at the
expense of hundreds of dollars, to find
himself, no better as time goes
by, still cure will result from the right
remedy, S.S.S., no matter what other
treatment has failed.
The reason that S.S.S. (Swift's Spe-
cifc) has so successfully cured even the
worst cases after other treatment had
been tried in vain is that it is the only
remedy which forces the poison from
the blood and permanently eliminates
it from the system, which is the only
correct principle of curing the disease.
Mercurial remedies bottle up the poison
and tear down the system, while S.sS.S.
forces out the poison and builds up and
adds strength and vigor to the entire
system. 1t is natures remedy, and con-
tains no harmful ingredient.

CASH TO BuRN IN KANSAS.
Bankers Have More Honey Than They
Can Dispose of.

State Bank Examiner John Brie-
denthal. in his semi. annual statement
says; "A most extraordinary hnan-
cial condition exists in Kansas. The
surplus in the banks Of the State is
larger than ever previously known
and the cash in circulation among the
people seems undiminished. The
banks cannot loan their money, and
are worried to know what to do with
the enormous deposits on which they
are paying per cent interest. AT
this time the people of the state are
engaged in moving an enormous
wheat crop and $4,000, 900 bushels OF
last years corn crop. and if they do
not need cash to handle such an enor-
nous volume of business the banks
are anxious to know what they will
need money for later
THE grain is rushing East rapidly,
ana all farmers are making Improve
ments on their lands, aud actually
have money to burn. The situation
is annoying the bankers of Kansas
very much. The extraordinary situ.
alton l attribute to the wave OF ecouo
my the hard times of the past few
years developed. The farmers were
forced to get along without borrowing
money and now they find it easy to
continue in that line. /"
Another remarkable feature of the
situation is that the bank examiner
who submits this report is Populist
of free-silve persuasion.

IT'S a Big Success.

The new Touring mill of J. w.
Bishop, as predicted by the Herald,
is more than a success. So rapidly
have orders come in, for some time
past, the mill has been running night
and day. Everybody speaks in the
highest terms of the quality of the
flour and a market is already assured
for every pound that can be produced
A dynamo has been placed in posi-
ton and the entire establishment is
now lighted by electricity. The mill
is a model in every particular and a
credit to the city.

Something to Know.

1t may be worth something to know
that the very best medicine for restor.
ing the tired out nervous system to a
healthy vigor is Electric Bitters. This
medicine is purely vegetable, acts by
giving tone to the nerve centres in the
stomach, gently stimulates the Liver
and Kidneys, and aids these organs in
throwing off impurities in the blood.
Electric Bitters improve the appetite,
aids digestion, and is pronounced by
those who have tried it as the very best
blood purifier and nerve tonic. Try it.

Mr.. Charles Glenn, of 1863 Dudley ST.,
Cincinnati, is one of the many who
constantly praise S SIS. for giving him
back his health. He says:
"From childhood | was afflicted with
a terrible blood disease, and have
taken almost every blood remedy on the
market, but my case was deepseated,
and one by one they failed. The large,
red blotches increased in size and num-
Der, and soon covered my entire body.
envy parents had me treated by num-
Der of physicians, but the disease was
too much for them, and after their tenn
porary relief was over, found myself
growing steadily worse. Thus I grew
into manhood, handicapped by terrible
disease and having tried SO many rene
dies without relief, when friend urged
me to take S. S. | had little faith In any
medicine. | was happy to find, however,
that had at last gotten the right remedy,
for one bottle of S. SIS did me so much
good that soon had hopes of being cured.
/ continued the remedy, and was cured
completely, the unsightly spots soon
disappeared, leaving my skin perfectly
clear. My general health was also built
up, and l am robust and strong. / be-
lieve S.S.S. will cure the worst case of
blood poison in the world"
S.S.S. is real blood remedy, and will
cure the most obstinate cases of Cancer,
Eczema, Catarrh, Scrofula, Rheumatism,
Contagious Blood Poison, old sores,
or any disease caused by impure blood.
