Keep history straight There is We.
one Jake Funk in Iowa, and a short
time ago there We're two. one OF them
IS dead and has left a fortune, and his
relatives are making big row over
his property. The other Jake is not
dead, and he is making enough rows
to keep his town and county we'll ad-
yertised. There is this difference:
The dead Funk was qudet man. and
the row only began, in his case. when
he died, while in the case of the living
one there will only be calm when NJ
passes away. Some thought the living
Jake Funk was politically dead some
time ago. but he gave lot of fellows
ND in Hardin county the biggest shak-
ing UP last fall they ever had, and now
he has belt full of scalps.

SOME BOUQUETS FOR THE
WOOD COUNTY REPORTER

The WOOD COUNTY REPORTER last
week contained a very interesting
Write-up of the public schools of
Grand Rapids. 1t was profusely
Illustrated, and was very creditable
piece of newspaper work. -Waupaca
Post.
The WOOD COUNTY REPORTER had
an exhaustive Write-up of the schools
of that city recently, including cuts
of the handsome school houses and
the teachers. Grand Rapids is a
live, progressive city and it's school
board evidently appreciates the bene-
fits of advertising Waupaca Record.
A most creditable write-up of the
history OF Grand Rapids schools, past
and present. with half tones of build
ingS, teachers and members of the
school board appeared IN the SEMI
WEEKLY REPORTER last week by
Editor A. L. Fontaine. Among the
teachers we noticed Miss Amelia
Pope, a graduate of the Stevens Point
Normal. Mr.. and Mrs. Robert Pope,
of Lind, in this county, are the
parents of the young lady. We con-
graduate her on her position and
good location. -Waupaca Republican.

HUNTERS CANNOT DISPOSE
VENISON TO MEAT MARKET

Deer hunters will not be allowed to
dispose of their veniSon to meat mar
kets for the purpose of placing it for
sale. The law in regard to tie sale of
game is plain and this fall it will be
impossible to purchase venison unless
it is done by stealth. The person
found guilty of selling any part of
doe, buck or fawn for consumption
will be punished by fine of not less
than twenty-five dollars. or by impri-
SOnment in the county jail not less
than thirty nor more than ninety days,
or both fine and Imprisonment. -
The past years most of the deer killed
in the northern woods have been sold
to dealers in the cities and during the
season ,yenison could be purchased in
nearly every market at prices slightly
higher than other kinds of steak.

CURES CATARRH.
"Hyomei the Most Wonderful Cure for Ca
tarrh Ever Discovered" Says John
E. DAILY,

DO not try to cure catarrh by taking
drugs into the stomach; it cannot be
cured in that manner. The only way
in which this too common disease can
be cured is through direct applica-
tiOn that will kill the bacilli Of Ca
tarrh and prevent their growth.
Hyomei is the only known method of
treatment that accomplishes this.
1t is the simplest, most pleasant, and
the only absolute cure for catarrh that
has ever been discovered.
Thousands of unsolicited testimo-
malls have been received from the most
prominent men and women in the
country who have been cured by this
remarkable remedy, Ministers,
bankers, lawyers, even eminent physi-
clans have given strong testimonials
as to the remarkable powers of Hyo-
mel to cure catarrh.
The complete HyOmei outfit costs
but 500, consisting of an inhaler,
dropper and sufficient Hyomei to last
several weeks. This will effect cure
in ordinary cases, but for chronic and
deep-seated cases of catarrh, longer
use may be necessary, and then extra
bottles of Hyomei can be obtained for
so cents. 1t is not alone the best lit
might be called the only method of
curing catarrh, but it is also the
most economical.
John E. DAILY had SO much conf
dence in the power of Hyomei to cure
catarrh, that he will for limited
time, sell this medicine under his
personal guarantee to refund the
money if the purchasers can say that
it did not help them
