ILLOUEZ DOCK IMPROVEMENT.

ILLOCEZ DOCK 1HPRCVE-HEfT.
The Great Northern road is
making extensive alterations
and repairs to the ore dock on
Allouez bay. The older part,
near the shore, is far too low for
the loading of the modern type
Of ore carrier, and will be raised
this winter to correspond with
the newer part beyond it. This
will necessitate an elevation Of
the long approach to the doch
and this work is now being done
The raising of the dock will be
done by the Barnett & Record
company, which has received {
contract from the company fo1
the work.
The Eastern Minnesota roal
has placed an order for 100 more
ore cars for use on the Duluth
Superior & Western road the
coming season. The policy Of
the road is to go after a much
larger share of this business
than it has been getting. Thu
Oliver Mining Co. alone will shil
900, 900 tons from the Superio
dock this season, and enough
more has already been secured t.
insure twice as much ore as ha
ever been handled over this docl
in any previous year.

The sundry civil bill passed by
the late congress embodied an
appropriation of $500, 1000 for rr-
luth and Superior harbors.
C. Sam Aspegren Is now as
ISOLATED with John Dollar ia the
Ely Times. The Times continues
to make strides Of improvement.
Marquette range miners are
talking "strike." A strike is a
poor method for the tailoring
man to employ in an attempt to
better his condition.
1t begins to look as though the
Labor Unions were not the
whole thing" in Duluth, if the
|:recent act of the street railway
company may be taken as q
criterion.
Paddy Vail, Ely's new post
master, is having a peck of
trouble these days. He is at
present under $500 bonds to keep
the peace, upon complaint of his
wife. whose life he threatened.
The bill introduced by Senator
Daugherty providing for the tax
alton or lice nsing of peddlers,
has been favorably considered in
committee Of the whole aud re
commended to pass. The bill
provides for d peddlers license
of 81 a day. $40 q month or $50 a
year IN all organized townships.
This measure is one which CON-
mends itself to the business fra
ternity, and is destined to do
away with many of the ltinerant
peddler's who infest the lumber
camps and mining locations.
The dollar is indeed almighty.
It is the Archime dian lever that
lifts the i'll bred man into select
society and places the ignorant
saphead ia the United States
senate; it makes presidents Of
stuffed prophets, governors of
Intellectual geese, philosophers
Of fools and gilds infamy with
supernatural glory. It wrecks
affairs Of innocence and pollutes
the face Of the people, breaks
the sword of justice and binds
the goddess Of liberty with
chains Of gold. It is the lord of
the land, the uncrowned king of
the commonwealth.
In the appointment of John
Beutner, Of Pro tor, to the posi-
ton Of state game and fish war
den, the fusic nists of the ranges
feel that they were turned down
in an uncalled for manner. Mr..
Beutner's leading opponent was
H. J. Millbrook, OF Mckinley, a
life long democrat, an honest,
energetic yonng man, and a gen
tleman whose appointment was
urged by the leaders of the
fusion forces of the ranges and
county, as also ty many of the
state leaders,. Mr.. Millbrook
and others feel that the ranges
are receiving but poor recoeni-
ton from Gov. Lind, and resent
ment is unconcealed.
An exchange says: Every
line Of a newspaper costs some
thing. If it is for the benefit of
an individual it should be paid
for. If the grocer should be
asked to contribute groceries to
one abundaut]y able to pay for
them be would refuse. The pro-
prietor Of a newspaper must pay
ior the free advertising if. the
beneficiary does not. and yet. it
is one of the hardest things to be
learned by many that a news
paper has space in it's columns
to rent and must rent to live. To
give away or rent at anything
less than living rates would be
as certainly fatal as for a land
lord to furnish rent free.

A GIRLS COMPLEXION
Come. From the Inside.

Whenever | failed 10 get my coffee for
breakfast, / would have a sick headache
before noon. II seemed TO me a curious
thing that a naturally healthy girl should
have sick spells OF this kind unless she
had been dosed in the morning with some
thing.
naturally concluded that all was not
right and inasmuch as ! was in very
nervous condition anyhow, / went to the
doctor for a nerve tonic.
He told me / would have TO quit drink
ing coffee. and when said / could not
possibly do il because | always got sick
If didn't have the coffee, he said Use
Postum Food Coffee. Well, ] tried il
twice, and gave it up because it tasted so
fiat.
One day was up to DR.. Ruggles's' In
Urinary and remarked to Mrs. Ruggles
that the DR.. had told me that must leave
off coffee and wanted me 10 use this new
tangled stuff called Postum but that ii
was positively unbearable. She said, My
dear you have never had good cup of
Postum evidently" | said, No, ! never
have. have only tried it twice. We'll, ."
she said, you go back and look at the
package and you will observe that the di-
rections insist upon continued boiling, at
least fifteen minutes. not that length of
time for the pot to set on the stove, but it
must stay there until it begins TO boil,
and then boil fifteen minutes | will
guarantee you will get fine, delicious
tasting black rich cup Of coffee, and per
haps, better favored than any you ever
tried before. The old fashioned coffee is
actually killing you" she said. You are
terribly nervous. and your complexion is
a long ways from what. 1t should be at your
age"
Well. when got home, tried making
some Postum at once. and followed di-
rections carefully, and must say it was
Just delicious. / have continued TO use it
ever since.
| am well and hearty now, and my COM
plexioh has cleared up SO that during the
last three months people remark to me
continually, How clear your skin Isl

use Postum instead OF ordinary coffee.

he likes it very much One Of our neigh
bors. Mr.. c. A. Barhe. was i'll in bed with
heart and some kind OF stomach com
plant. He was a habitual coffee drinker
but when he got down, DIR. Ruggles took
his coffee away and gave him Postum Food

that he believes the Postum was the main

Cold weather means hard work for your
lungs.
Hard work is good for strong people, but
death TO weak.
That's why cold weather is death TO
thousands who suffer from weak lungs.
There is danger point for all people
with weak lungs beyond which IL is not
wise to allow their lungs to go.
Weak lungs may last you for years, but
II you once get past the danger point.
and stay there. there can be but one end
ing, Consumption.
The proofs that you have passed the
danger point come quickly enough: cough,
cold. sore throat, pain in the lungs. fever.
night sweats loss of sleep and of appetite,
loss OF flesh or wasting away-all tell the
tale too truly
When your lungs are weak, there Is
room for the consumption germ to grow,
and 1t grows all too quickly when it once
gets started.
Time was when every consumptive was
doomed. But that time. thank God. is past.
By the untiring efforts and brilliant
genius OF one of the worlds greatest scien-
lists lifetime of labor and research has
been crowned with success.
Consumption can now. by the new system
of treatment of this eminent physician, be
rendered null and void.
1t can be prevented.
1t can be cured.

steam pipe in the basement of the power
house of the Brooklyn Heights Railroad
Company, at Kent and Division Avenues,
Brooklyn, E. D.. this morning. trolley lines

OF the wall on the south side was blown
out and fell on the premises formerly &C.
cupied by the Knickerbocker Ice Company.
