This provision of the ordinance will

The Tribune last season, ut the request
of horse owners. called attention to this
neglected condition. and complaints
We're received since the recent snowfall
from owners whose animals We're suf-
ferers from this unreStrained practice.
The ordinance also provides for and
regulates the cleaning OF sidewalks,

this was already provided for. it pro-
hibits the piing up Of snow on the
roadway. the condition that follows
when the trolley company clears its
rails after Il snow storm. The snow.

ance. must be leveled to Il uniform
height over the roadway. The same
penalty is provided in this case.

FurS.....

How can a furrier afford to pay
rent twelve months in the year
and do business only four OF these
months His one way is to cover
it with profit.
In this store the rent, salaries
and management are shut off the
instant the fur season is over. The
people who have served YOU so
we'll in the furs go into the dress
department or into the coats. We
wouldn't let one of them leave us
for love or money, for to be fine
saleswoman in furs is an accom-
plisllment that YOU don't often
find.
We buy Furs in such vast guam
titles that the minimum of profit
is enough for the most ambitious
maker
And so our Furs are always %
per cent.-sometimes as much. as
Hl per cent.-less than you will
find them elsewhere, and the va
rietv three or four times greater
than YOU will see anywhere else.

new road leading down the Bull.
pasture from Mcdowell, according
to contract, with some slight ex.
ceptions that the contractor prom
ises to make good, and the road
was adopted and ordered to be
opened for public travel. The con-
tract price for building the road is
$24O.72.
Claims against the county for

work, amounting to S229.89, were
allowed.
J. K, Beathe, road contractor,
was directed to put upa wire foot

1t being the opinion Of the Board
that the outstanding railroad bonds
of the county, now bearing a six
per centum, semiannual rate of in
terest, can be refunded at a lower
rate, and with that in view the
Board is taking steps to ascertain,
the lowest rate Of interest at which
said bonds can be refunded, so as to
accomplish the end desired.

False Economy.

Do not practice false economy,
in the purchase Of spectacles or eye
glasses. If a prescription be taken
to a druggist to be filled, it is not
handed in with the request that
the cheapest drugs may be used, al
though perhaps. the medicine re-
quired is for a TRIVIAL ailment only.
Why. then, should so slight an es.
innate be placed upon the most
precious Of all the sences, that
those who can and do afford ex-
travagances in useless or at least
unnecessary luxuries should be-
grudge paying fair price for an
article at once so essential to COM
fort and welfare? The complete
satisfaction and comfort given by
our made-to-order glasses are max

Premiums on Scalps.

Upon examination of the records
we find figures that prove that
either such varments as the red and
gray foxes. the owl, hawk, wildcat
and catamount are growing less in
number in Highland or there are
fewer nimrods to take their scalps.
We find that during the year
July 1901 to July 1902 the Board
of Supervisors has allowed premi-
ums on scalps to the amount of
$l95, 80 as against $4,000 for the
year 1900-1. which is a falling off
of almost half.

Bolar Equal to Hot or Healing
of Bath County.

As previously stated in these col.
umns, about a mile to the north OF
the McGufiin Bolar Spring, in the
same valley and proceeding from
the same ridge, was lately discov-
cred on his farm, by Mr.. J. H.
Burns, a flowing spring, which
from its temperature aud other Pc
culiaritles, led him to believe it was
the same water or similar to that
of Bolar Spring,
With view to ascertaining its
mineral properties Mr.. Burns has
had an analysis made of the water
by a chemist Of national reputation
which analysis We here publish
and which furnishes the world with
the fist scientific information that
the Bolar water does actually con-
tain mineral properties OF great
value.
Citizens Of Highland can now
prepare their minds to realize that
within their county is an unceas-
ing and unlimited flow of mineral
water equal to or surprising the
Hot or Healing Springs of Bath
county or the Hot Springs of Ar
kansas, and will at no distant day
prove great boon to the county
The letter containing the anal.
ysis is as follows:

Dear Sir: | have

nation of the sample of water from

results:
The water is quite clear-colour'

of very faint greenish blue colour
when viewed in a column of two
feet in length, with no preceptible
smell or taste-sligbtly ak aline t.

with doubtful traces of Strontiun
and the radical Of Nitric acid,
trace Of organic matter, and in so
luton the gasses Of oxygen, nitro
