The Proper Treatment for a Sprained An

AS a rule a man will feel well salts
fed if he can hobble around on
crutches two or three weeks after
spraining his ankle, and is usually
two or three months before he has
fully recovered. This is an unneces-
sary loss of time, for in many cases
in which Chamberlain's Pain Balm
has been promptly and freely applied,
a complete cure has been effected in
less than one weeks time, and in
some cases within three days. For
sale by all druggists.

ton to the city to furnish natural gas for

Gas Company, 1900 acres, ask for rate

that they can do their best TO furnish gas.
1t is not believed that the new company's

them accept lower rates. 1t would be i'm
possible for the new company to lay mains
and pipes in order to give service this

A YEAR OF ROOSEVELT.
President Is Energetic Beyond the
Comprehension of Most Men.
Worlds Work.

Worlds Work.
Mr. Roosevelt throughout his whole pub
lie life has been a shining mark for the
wags and the cartoonists of the newspa-
pers. He is unusually quick in mind and
body. He is energetic beyond the compre-
hension of most men who hold public office.
He is incapable of idleness and impatient
of slowness in getting the routine done.
And he is fond of adventure. He hunts
(and he hunts big game), he rides (and he
rides hard), he walks land he walks fast,
and he INDUCES in all manly sports. He
boxes, he rows, he swims, he wrestles.
But there is a difference between energy
especially physical energy-and rashness.
and he has never been a rash man in public
action. He is by nature one of the most
conservative executives that ever filled high
offices. For his mind is not ina ginative
nor constructive. 1t works best in the
straight line of action. He does not nat
urally turn to the making of new policies.
He is aptest at carrying out old ones. His
temperament is executive rather than crea-
tive He is not likely to try new things.
He travels faster than other men, but he
keeps on well-traveled roads. Such man
brings many things to pass, but he is not
rash. BY nature he is conservative.
The whole people have now come to know
him and to know him well; for he conceals
nothing. He lives and works in the public
view. 1t used to be said of President Har-
rison that when one saw him close at hand
he seemed larger than he seemed at a
distance; and of President Cleveland that
he was much more impressive at a dis
lance than he was close at hand. President
Roosevelt is the same, seen near or seen
far. Frank, fearless. energetic. a sturdy
gentleman" as President Eliot called him.
and never rash.
To have won the general confidence by a
year of routine work is much. But he has
done more than this: he has keyed the ex-
ecutive department of the government to a
higher pitch of energy than IL has known
since it became the vast machine that il is.
The army. the navy the civil service have
a new note of efficiency. Nor has the in
fuence of his energetic temperament
stopped there. 1t has been felt throughout
a large part of our political life. This is
much to say about the influence OF one man
exerted for a single year through the rou-
tine of official work; but Ii Is not too much
to say of Mr.. Roosevelt.

paratively small sum, and who, for the
sake of Roses family. are inclined to be
lenient. Charles Mcintyre, of Crawfords-

on this basis may be reached with the
