Newest Things In Phones,

A dispatch from Muskegon, Mich,
Of Saturday last has the following
interesting bit of telephone news
&C. F. Bidwell, of Toledo, O., gave
the first practical demonstration here
Thursday Of a telephone system
invented by his father, whereby it is
possible to call up and talk from an
electric car going at full speed to
persons seated in other cars on the
same line, running in any direction,
at any distance.
The system is applicable to either
steam or electric roads, and it is
possible for person on a moving car
to call up and talk with persons at
stations or in residences along the
line. A second wire and trolley pole
is used and the telephone wire is
attached to trolley poles"

Jewels form a magnet of mighty
power to the average woman. Even
that greatest of all jewels, health, is

to make or save the money to purchase
them. If a woman will risk her health
to get coveted gem, then let her
fortify herself against the insiduous
consequences of coughs, colds and
bronchial affections by the regular use
of DR.. Boscheo's German syrup. 1t
will promptly arrest consumption in
it's early stages and heal the affected
lungs and bronchial tubes and drive

Pickles Move,

F. H. Peterson came up from Green
Bay Friday to make arrangements tC
have couple Of car loads of salted
pickles shipped from this station tC
the process plant of Alart & Mcclure
at Green Bay. There is still a great
quantity of pickles stored in the
station at this place-Several thousand
bushels. Last year was very un-
favorable one for growers in this
section owing to the great drouth just
when the pickle harvest had nicely
begun, but for pickle manufacturers
it has been most profitable one, as
prices are and have been all that
could be desired. This is a new
industry in this locality but it
promises to become very important
one in a few years.

apart the better. All leads that are
now on the same poles with the
Electric light wires should be removed
at the earliest opportunity with the
exceptions of Cranberry and River
streets.
The business between Grand Rapids
and Nekoosa has already outgrown
our facilities and it will be absolutely
necessary in the near future to have
two trunk lines between these two
points. We would recommend that
the circuits be made metallic and the
present wires be used for one circuit
with the three p~per mills bridged
thereon. The other metallic circuit
lead direct to the Central office. In
doing this, which will be a great
convenience to the three paper mills,
we believe they should pay for the
material necessary, and the Wood
County Telephone Company string the
wire and do the work This must be
done to handle the business and give
tirSt-ClaSs service between these
points.
The magnitude of the business here
after will demand one persons whole
time as book-keeper. collector, ETC.,
and we would recommend that a
stenographer and book-keeper be
engaged and they give their whole
time to cOmpany's interests, under the
supervision of our manager.
A. L. FONTAINE,
President.
After the report was read many
questions were asked and answered by
the manager, treasurer and president,
after which the following board of
directors was elected for the ensuing
year:
Messrs. T. E. Kellner, Chas. Briere,

Lumber May Go Higher.

Eau Claire Leader.
All indications point to a further
advance in lumber next summer.
There are several reasons. Men are
paid higher wages. Teamsters, chop
pers, sWampers and others are getting
SO month more than they got five
years ago.
Feed is high: ton of chopped oats
and corn costs S25. 1t used to be S15
Corn is double what it was. Oats are
double what they were. Hay that used
to be 81 to s. ton is now $1I and S12
The hauls to the streams are longer
The price Of stumpage is higher The
wages of the mill hands are higher.
Everything is higher, hence lumber
must go higher.
