HOLLANDALE AND VICINITY.

From the Review
Thos. Convey of Ridgeway was in
town Saturday and informed us that
the Ridgeway, Jonesdale and Hol-
landale Telephone Co, of which he
is president, has secured franchise
from the city of Dodgeville and that
the line will be extended to that
place in the near future.
The corner stone of the new Cath
Ollie church at Ridgeway was laid by
Archbishop Mesmer of Milwaukee
Thursday.
Mrs. p. Cleary and daughter Mag
gle returned Thursday of last week,
from Milwaukee, where the former
had been for two weeks to receive
treatment for her eyes. Her sight,
which was failing, is now restored to
its normal condition.
If you haven't paid your subscrip-
ton for three years, or even two,
don't you think it's about time you
did it?
A new walk across the railroad
property and another in front of the
hotel has improved travel to the de-
pot very much.
Eric, Ole and Andrew Hegiand were
summoned to Perry Tuesday on ac-
count of the dangerous illness of
their fatuei, 'shn Highland, Sr.
Hollandale was well represented
at Mineral Point on Monday evening
and at Barneveld on Tuesday when
Gov. LaFollette spoke at those
places. Why people will go so far to
hear one side of a question when
they can d.op into our rostofiice al
most any time of day, but especially
at night, and hear all sides of the po-
litical controversy discussed by such
men as Highland, Thoni, Leavitt
Holland, Dowd and Paulson, we fail
to understand.

A Tudicious Inquiry.

A well known travelling man who
visits the drug trade says he has of.
ten heard druggists inquire of custo-
mers who asked for cough medi-
cine, whether tt was wanted for a
child or for an adult, and if for a
child they almost invariably recon-
mend Chamberlain Cough Remedy
The reason for this is that they know
there is no danger from it and that ii
always cures. There is not the least
danger in giving it, and for coughs
colds and Group it is unsurpassed

In red and black ink showing that
Peck's administration was not so ex.
pensive as that OF LaFo,lette's. Such
may aud reasonably can be the case.
1t is ten years since Peck was at the
helm. Our state has enjoyed rapid
and substantial development since
that time. The state government OK
| pense, however, has not increased
proportionately. In fact it is less
per capita than at any time since
| Rusk steered the ship of state. What
| showing of increase can he made is
| due entirely to the increased cost of
| maintaining new institutions which
| have been built since Peck's admin
istration, such az the home for feeble
minded and the state reformatory ut
Green Bay enlarging and improving
| various state institutions, including
the state university, and these were
necessities brought about by the gen
eral growth of our state.

| Last Friday, Oct. 81, was observed
as the Goth anniversary of the we'd
ding of Mr.. and Mrs. VIM. j. Cox,
long residents of Mineral Point, but
now of Englewood, Ill. On the occa-
sion they were taken by surprise
when in the evening goodly gather
ing of relatives and former Pointers
now residing at that place dropped
in upon them and showered them
with congratulations and presents
They We're the recipients of about
5000 in gold. Their youngest daugh-
ter, Miss Margaret Cox, WAS united
in marriage to Mr.. Thomas Knowles
the following day, which we under
stand was the anniversary date pro-
per. The Tribune joins the many old
schoolmates and friends of Miss Coz
in this city in extending congratula-
tions.
Thanks to Jeffris for the free adj
vertising he gave the Tribune. II
has already resulted in seven new
subscribers. His acknowledgment
of being chairman of the boilers
caucus, in reply to the Tribunes in
quiry, was only what was expected
But his declaration that he is proud
of it is something he will be ashamed
of later on, if by that time reason
other query put to Jeffris by the
| Tribune, relative to Babcock, was
too hot for him to handle, so he let it
drop,

Farmer of the Future

On the othe. hand, we have heard
of some who persist in making good
crops during the worst seasons, and
who have full barns and overfowing
smokehouses at time when their less
fortunate neighbors are purchasing
their supplies in the stores. We be-
lievc that even an editor could man.
age a farm well enough to make pref
ty good crops when the seasons are
all prOpitious, when the rains come
in the nick of time, and are succeeded
by Just the right amount CT open
weather. We mention this possibility
in order to suggest that it is not nee.
essary to be a good farmer to make
fair crops in seasons that are pre-
cisely suited to growing things.
Perhaps it is too much to expect,
and yet we believe that the time will
conc when farmer will possess all
the accomplishments that are neces.
sary in his work. and that he will be
a first-class business man besides. We
are coming upon new times and new
methods, and the pressure of these
will produce new men, who will farm
exclusively for the immense profits
that are to be coaxed out of the SOIL

when the sheriff was called away by
a Scotch hireling, and the prisoner
left to contemplate the axe for an
hour. Then he was led away and told
to prepare for death at the end Of q
further two hours. Grey's turn was
next. He prayed half an hour before

and was led away, the King sending
word that the order of execution had
been changed. So forth came Cob

Practical farmers are sometimes in
clined to resent the advice that they
frequently see in the newspapers with
respect to their methods of doing
business; and at first blush and super
.ficially it does seem a little peculiar
that the editorial brethren should con-
tinue to pour forth advice. that is
rarely taken, and insist on writing ag.
ricultural essays that are often ridi-
culed in quiet way by those to
whom they are addressed.
1t is common saying that an edi-
tor can make ten crops with his pen
where he couldn't make one with his
hand, and it is regarded as. pre-
sumptuous for a man who can't lay
off a piece of land for crop, nor even
run straight furrow with pillow,
to be telling the farmers what they
should do and how they should econo-
mize. But the truth of the matter is
that there are very few farmers who
appreciate the real Importance and
dignity Of their calling, or who try
to do much more than make living
out of the ground. Indeed we have
heard Of some who failed to make a
good living, and who were. always
in debt as the result of what they
called hard times and bad crops.

That Acid Trouble.


Colusa, CAL, April 18th.-Much has
been said and written recently about
Uric Acid in the system; what causes
it and how to get rid of it. 1t is
known to be the first cause of Rheu.
mats and many other diseases and
has therefore received a great deal of
attention from medical men.
Mr.. l.. F. Moulton of this place
claims that he has solved the prob.
lem of how to get this acid out of the
system. He says:
Il had-t this acid trouble myself for
years. At times the Kidney secre.
tions would be very profuse and at
other times scant. but the acid was
always my greatest trouble. Medicine
failed to cure me till at last 1 heard
of remedy called ;Dodd's Kidney
Pills and after taking a box seemed
to be entirely cured. However, it
came back on me and this time took
several boxes, with the result that I
was completely and permanently
cured. This was three years ago and
have not had single symptom OF
the acid trouble since. am rs years

again he may have eruptions, swell
ings and other blood humors. Which
ever it is, the cause is the same-ef-
fete accumulations in the blood.
Nothing is more certain within the
whole range of medical science than
that course of Peruna in early spring
time will perfectly and effectually pre-
vent or cure this almost universal at
lection.
Everybody feels it in some degree.
A great majority are disturbed con-
siderably, while large per cent of the
human family are made very misera-
BILE by this condition every spring.
Peruna will prevent it if taken in
time.
Peruna will cure it if taken as di.
rected.
Peruna is the ideal spring medicine
of the medical profession.
If you do not derive prompt and sat-
isfactory results from the use of Pc
runa, write at once to DR.. Hart
man, giving full statement of your
case, and he will be pleased to give
you his valuable advice gratis.

DR.. Hartman's medical lectures are
eagerly scanned by many thousand
readers.
One of the most timely and interest
ing lectures he ever delivered was mis-
recent lecture on the blood impurities
of spring.
The doctor said in substance that
every spring the blood is loaded with
the effete accumulations of winter, de.
ranging the digestion, producing slug
gishness of the liver, .overtaxing the
kidneys, interfering with the action of
the bowels and the proper circulation
of the blood.

Paris styles in spring hats. Mention
that the styles are exclusive and that
there will be a private view to-day in
which creations will be obtainable
long before the vulgar herd can copy
them"
Then the doctor passed jauntily
down the street chuckling. Alas! Be-
fore four blocks were passed he be-
came martyr to science.
Hurrying footsteps battered behind,
fluttcring boa sent his silk hat fly
ing into the gutter and the doctor
himself was sent tottering. The doc.
tor looked after the person who had
done the mischief and saw busting
feminine figure fastening recklessly
for the shopping district.
IT'S Mrs. Pennifether on her way

ton of exercise and mild excitement!

Mean Man Of Wealth

z.
There goes the meanest man in
two states" said the veteran ticket
seller as prominent Wall street man,
who owns a magnificent home in the
suburbs of Newark, entered the ferry
house of the Pennsylvania railroad at
Cortlandt street. ~ have been here
thirty years and have encountered all
sorts of beats, but he is the worst of
the lot.
Two years ago was doing the
last watch when in staggered that
man, drunk. He didn't have cent to
pay for his ferriage or for his railroad
fare home. He asked me to let him
have quarter and offered his fine
gold watch as security. didn't want
his watch, of course, but took it for
safe keeping, because / feared he
would be robbed. Then I gave him a
dollar and had one of the deckhands
take charge of him, with the instruc-
lions to have him put aboard the train
when the boat reached Jersey City.
The deckhand also instructed the con-
ductor to have the drunken man put
in cab in Newark.
when I took the Wall street mans
watch got his name and address and
told him to call the next day and re.
deem his property.
Next day came, but no man to
claim the watch. The following day
the same. And so on for a week
until on my day off l pocketeG the
