sale as well as retail shall be licensed.
After June ! the department will see
that no adulterated vinegar is sold in the
state. An act, which goes into effect at
that time, makes it misdemeanor for

me without success that just resigned
myself to my fate-I lost hope. There
were many times when I feared my rea.
son would give way.
"a nervous affection developed which
affected my muscles and at times I could
not control them. l could not sleep
soundly, I lost flesh and appetite and
was miserable.
"A neighbor called one day and told
me of some of the cures that had been
made by DIR. Williams Pink Pills for
Pale People and I promised her to try
them. Relief came with the first box
and I improved steadily until, by the
time four boxes were taken, ! was ,per.

Mr.. DUKES PLAN.
Suggests How Manufactures Can Be
Secured for Mankato.

From Saturdays Daily.
NJ G. Willard received letter yester.
day from A. n. Dukes, formerly of Man
kato, now vice president and manager of
the Indiana Manufacturing company of
Peru, Ind, suggesting plans for securing
manufacturers here. There in one case
tract of land was bought by number
of live citizens and plated into lots, and
the lots sold to everybody interested in
the town, and with the 100000 profits,
they secured factory employing 800
to 400 hands. In another case they
bought tract of land which was leased
to the city for term of twenty years
at an annual rental Then they formed
park association, and to raise funds to
secure another large factory, they issued
bonds, the bondholders being secured by
the contract or lease to the city. This
was way of indirectly getting the city
to raise and secure the money to land the
factory. Many similar devices might be
employed, as where there is "will'' a
way" can be found
Has not Mankato some enterprising
men, inside or outside the commercial
bodies, who can put through some such
scheme to secure manufactures. The
Saulpaugh plan ought to accomplish
the same object if vigorously pushed by
the committee, and heartily adopted by
the people. Standing still means falling
behind in the race.

other remedies had failed.
SCOTS Emulsion is the
modern idea of cod liver oil
the first instead of the last
resort when such ailments
appear.
The taste of the oil is not
apparent and the oil itself is

Stopping his team he procured spear

In few minutes he had had more than a
hundred as the result of his work. This

fish were produced as evidence. This is
