GEORGE A. MAUK.

George A. Mauk. the republican can didate for recorder. is a man the voters of this county should delight to honor. Though he is a young man. comparatively youth is no disgrace and younger men than he have held that office and performed its duties satis- factorily to the public. Beside. he Is older in business experience than many whose hair is tinged With gray. For eight years he vas a trusted employe of Wells, Fargo & co., the Southern Pacific and the M. P. & s. R. V. rail roads, his last work of the kind being in the capacity of agent of the latter railroad at Mesa City. Since giving up railroad work he has represented local building and loan association in the field and with good success. He is therefore a thorough business man, a good penman and thoroughly competent to perform the duties of the office to which he aspireS. He has been a. resi- dent of the county for thirteen years. is a married man. straightforward in his dealings and thoroughly upright in character. His home is in Mesa City and his circle of friends on both sides of the river is not confined to the mar row limits of partisan bounds. He is a representative young man, such as the hope of the country depends upon, and his honorable ambition should be en- couraged. That he will receive a com fortable majority on election day is al ready indicated by expressions Of prI vate opinion in public places. He is certainly deserving and those who know him best will l;oJ only vote for him. but lend their influence to his cause.

QUESTIONS ANSWERED.

Yes. August Flower still has the largest sale of any medicine in the civ ilized world. Your mothers and grand mothers never thought of using any thing else for Indigestion or Bilious ness. Doctors were scarce and they seldom heard of Appendiciti-. Nervous Prostration or Heart failure, etc. They used August Flower to clean out the system and stop fermentation of undi- gested food, regulate the action of the liver, stimulate the nervous and or ganlc action of the system. and that is all they took when feeling dull and bad with headaches and other aches You only need a few doses of Greens August Flower, in liquid form, to make you satisfied there Is nothing serious the matter with you.

DON'T COUCH

Stop it with Scott's emulsion of cod-liver oil.
 A little coughing is nothing -the tickling, that makes you cough once, is some dust; not the least harm. You scratch an itch, and forget it. This cough is scratching an itch.
 But the cough, that hangs on and comes back, is the sign of an itch that hangs on and comes back. There is some thing that makes that itch.
 Inflammation; a germ per haps; it's alive; like a seed in moist warm ground; 1t will grow if you let it, especially in children.
 We'll send vou little to try, if you like. SCOTT 6 BOVINE, 4O9 Pearl street, New York

FUEL GAS FROM WOOD.
A Frenchman's Cheap and Powerful
 Substitute for Coal.

A scientific problem that has been attracting attention for over a century is the manufacture of gas from wood. It is believed now that it has been sue cess1uIly solved in an invention of H. tiche, of Paris first announced in lS94. and since that time improved and perfected. Previous attempts in this direction had resulted only in the pro auction of bad smelling, impure and weak gas. that did not possess any great practical advantages, and was also expensive to generate. Wood dis titled by ordinary methods breaks up into various gases and Vapors. as well as producing charcoal but in the Riche apparatus the volatile products pass through bed of hot charcoal. which decomposes the more complex vapors. There is, in the first place, a kiln of ordinary red and fire bricks. reinforced by an iron ring. which contains the re- torts, heated by fire boxes at the end of the kiln. The fire boxes are so arrang- ed that the heat can be turned on or off at a moments notice. The retort is first charged with charcoal, and the hot gases from the fire box are allowed tO plty around IL unlll II becomes cher ry red. Wood is then introduced, nearly filling the retort. and it imme- diately begins to decompose into voia- tile compounds, owing to the high tenn perature. The gases, which rise to the top. can find no outlet. and are driven downward and over the surface of tlle charcoal below. where they are decom- posed and form the permanent gas, which passes out to the gasometer. The process is quite economical, as one ton of wood will produce over 25UGO cubic feet of gas and about 400 tons of good wood charcoal. With wood al s per ton, and not taking into consid era tiOn the charcoal produced, this would make the cost of the gas IA cents per thousand cubic feet. Likewise a horse power hour can be obtained at acost of less than one-haIf cent. The gas pro- duced by this system is used in France in number of mechanical operations, where heat is desired, as we'll as for motive power. It does not burn with a

ABOUT ADVERTISING.

The Highland Press of last week
contained a number of very sensible
suggestions in regard to newspaper
advertising. The editor of The Press
takes the position that advertising
that is, successful Advertising ac-
complished by careful study, and reg
ular weekly changes of reading mat
ter. He considers the local news
paper as the proper medium for the
country merchants; but says:
"By this we do not condemn maya
zine advertising or the special price
lists as neatly gotten out quarterly by
+. G. Ludden & Co., of Mineral Point.
Mr.. Ludden admits that he is crank
on advertising. and right here it may
be said that his advertising is the
best, to our notion, we have run
across in the past ten years of our
newspaper and advertising experience
at Fennimore, Wauzeka, Lancaster,
Prairie du Chen. or Lacrosse. SO
much for being a crank, Mr., Ludden,
But it is true"
II is but right to remark that tn
special price lists, to which reference
is made, was printed at The Democrat
office The Press editor continues:
cat the approach of the new year,
it is a good time to make your adver-
Using appropriation. One dollar or
one hundred dollars, make the amount
do its duty. Choose the methods
that are the most successful to the
largest number. The mediums that
are awake to the times and willing to
earn the advertiser premium on his
investment. Study to give weekly
change of copy. And above all, let
there be price ring in you talk;
every store has some bargains to give
each week; give yours just as if it was
the only store on earth. In adverts
ing don't try to cut the other fellow.
Just so sure as you do, there will be
