Melvin Morrison accompanied by

Since the citizens of this town
ship made up their minds to have
public business done in a better
manner they will look closer into
the qualifications of candidates. A
discussion recently evolved tho fol-
lowing ideas with respect to road
making, which they will try and
find supervisors TO fit:
First, No more scraping of gutter
mud on top of gravel put on by
former official
Second, No more cobble stone cul-
verts covered with plank, all badly
built and dangerous TO the public.
Third, Cutting the brush and trim
ming out the roads ana removing
the rubbish from along the highway.
Fourth, Getting the most benefit
out of the material used and the
greatest amount of work out Of
those doing it.
Frank Downs has secured a posi-
tion in the kitchen of a leading
restaurantin Jersey City and expects
to graduate from there q chef. This

INDUSTRY AND INVENTION.

Microphoues are now made so sem
sitive that by their use one may hear
the groans of a dying fly.
The secret Of making carbon paper
and typewriter ribbons is known to
scarcely two dozen people
The sand blast as a substitute for
soap, water and scrubbing brush is
a novel idea, but this has been used
recently in the renovation of the
exteriors of the government printing
Office and the treasury building at
Washington.
Wireless telegraphy gives worse
results on land than at sea. A CO.
herer placed underground is not in

proves that the curvature Of the
earth constitutes an absolute barrier
to wireless telegraphy.
Some of the uses of by-products
of slaughtered animals: The blood
is used for the production of albu-
men; the bones for knife handles,
toothbrush handles, chessmen, etc;
the horns for combs, backs of brush
es, large buttons, etc; the hoofs for
buttons, ornaments and fertilizers.
Meats foot oil, extracted from the
feet, has high commercial value.
The fat is used for glycerin and but
terine. Gelatin, glue, pepsin and
other articles are obtained from
slaughtered cattle and sheep. The
value of such articles made every
year represents many millions of dol
lars.

THOUGHTS ON MATHEMATICS

A number is a unit. "Quite a NUM-
Der" means any old thing-possibly
"a whole lot"
Mathematics is called an exact sci
ence, probably because it exacts so
much brain work.
Mathematics is that science which
teaches us how not to let others do
us as we would do them.
Some people are natural-born
mathematicians. They find It as
easy as rolling off a logarithm.
Things equal to the same thing
are equal to one another, but there
are some things few of us feel equal
to.
A "prime" quantity is one that
cannot be divided, but a million dol
lars can fall under that head under
some circumstances.
The radical sign indicates that a
root is to be extracted. When the
dentist tackles the correct tooth, it
Is the square root.
1t is impossible to square the cir
Gle, but it is always easy to square
the policeman.-David H. Dodge, in
N. Y. Times.

SEVERE ATTACK or GRIP
Cured BY One Bottle Of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy

Remedy
'fWhen I had an attack of the
grip last winter (the second one) I
actually cured myself with one
bottle Of Chamberlain s Cough Rem
edy." says Frank W, Perry, editor
of the Enterprise, Shortsyille, N. Y.
This is the honest truth. / at
times kept from coughing myself to
pieces by taking a teaspoonful Of
this remedy, and when the coughing
spell would come on at night 1 would
take a dose and It seemed that in
the briefest interval the cough would
pass of and I would go to sleep per.
feotly free from cough and its
accompanying pains. To say that
the remedy acted as a most agree
able surprise is putting It very
mildly. had no idea that it would
or could knock out the grip, simply
because 1 had never tried it for such
purpose, but It did, and it seemed
with the second attack Of coughing
the remedy caused it TO not only be
only Of less duration, bat the pains
we're far less severe, and I had not
used the contents of one bottle
before Mr.. Grip had bid me adieu.
