A Rejected Favor.

When the German emperor was at
school at Cassel, he and his brother.
Prince Henry. lodged in an old castle
near, but in the school the two boys
were treated exactly like any other
youngsters. On one occasion. 1t is re-

William was backward in Greek and

formation on the blackboard in huge
letters. not wishing to have any unfair
advantage over his schoolfellows.

nature. Every organ in the body Was
placed there by an allwise Creator and
given some work to do. If any of them
become diseased and unable TO accom-
plish the task assigned them, the wrong
should be speedily rlghted. Impurities
of the blood quickly affect the stomach
and serious results follow. The trouble
may show IN dyspepsia, catarrh, cOnsti-
patton, scrofuls, nervous prostrstion, or
eruptions of the skin.
The system needs remedy that will
go directly to the seat of the disease,
make the torpid liver active, the blood
pure, and build up the patient gener
ally. Knox stomach Tablets are q new
combination of the best remedies
known to medical science to accom-
plish this end. They have been thor
oughly tried and tested. A single box
will be worth more than gold to the
sufferer.
Knox Stomach Tablets are sold at 80
cents per box of fifty, by druggists. If
unable to secure them, send fifty cents
and the address of the druggist, who
does not sell them, to the Knox Chem
ical Co.. Battle Greek, Mich, and a full
sized box will be mailed postpaid.

Along the Kankakee where the pro-
posed ditch to straighten the river is
being considered there is an intense
hostility to the work on the part of
many of the small property owners and
they threaten all sorts of troubles.
Some of them claim their land would
be actually damaged by the proposed
work and instead of paying assessments
they should be remunerated by dam
ages. These people in many cases are
banding together to fight the ditch in
every possible way and the more i'm
moderate ones even threaten blOodshed
as preventative of the work.
A disastrous fire in the home of Miss
Emma Swindell was narrowly averted

Geo. Kleinschmidt, who lives just across
the street, was soon on deck, but by the
time he arrived the carpet and comfort
were also burning. The only way to
prevent the fire from spreading was to
get rid of the couch, which he did. The
smothering of the remaining flames was
a comparatively easy matter. Mr..
Klelnschmidt carried his hand in sling
today, which gives evidence of his
prompt action,

A Drone i'm the Hive May Cause Serious

A Drone i'm the Hive May Cause Serious
Trouble.
One lazy man in the factory or on the
farm may hamper the entire force of
wOrkmen. A few minutes lost each
day by only one man may cause serious
inrosds on the profits. The man who
desires to sleep at his post of duty
must be dismissed or change his habits.
At some time during the life of every
one the liver becomes inactive and tor
pid. lite dr0ne in the hive of the hu-
man organs, and refuses to do its share
of the work. Then the whole system
soon becomes run down and serious loss
is the result. 1t is not loss of money
but loss of health, which is far more
valuable than tons of gold.
When the liver becomes torpid, the
blood impure, and the stomach refuses
to do its work, the case needs attention,
and it is ample time to take steps to
compel the liver to do its share of the
work as intended by nature. There
must be no drones in the great hive of
