rhare,s a Difference.

Perhaps the word tonic Is more often abused and twisted from it's original meaning than any other in the English tongue It is used. to characterize what ever temporarily spurs or excites the sys- tenn without regard to It's lasting bene- fits.
 A well Known medical writer lately said: "A real tonic builds instead of booming. strengthens instead of exciting; 1t feeds instead of frightening, A tonic in the true sense, Is food, a nutrient It must nourlsh."
 That is why a malt tonic--a true malt tonic--is ideal. It supplies got only the vitallzing effect. but the food, the up. building elements.
 A great many dark-colored beers are christened malt tonics,' but they lack the food elements and the reconstructive properties.
 Malt Murine, the product of Anheuser- Busch Brewing Assn, St. Louis. Is a tonic that is rich in nutriment, and builder up.
 It Is especially valuable to convaies. cents, nursing mothers and those who have need of an effective tonic that will be retained by the most delicate stomach.
 Its acceptance and use in the practice of Americas most eminent and success full physicians, and the great and con- tlnued demand for it at druggists and grocers', by whom 1t is sold the country over, proves conclusively it's merit and popularity.
 Malt Murine is served at the leading health resorts and summering places.

MAT LOCKPORT WAFER POWER
DISPUTE.

There Ia nothing SO very eXtraOrdi.
nary about the action of the majority
OF the Drainage Board In decreeing
that the city must pay for the canal
water power Mt LockpOrt. Neither Is
II unprecedented. Certain municipal
high financiers and refOrmers say the
canal has been built by the money OF
the taxpayers, hence 1t and all of its
developments and uses should 60 to
the taxpayers free. Now the city wa.
ter system. with it's costly and eXten.
sive plant from cribs to pumping sta.
tiOns and cOnduits, was constructed by
the taxpayers at the expense Of mil.
lions Of dollars, yet the water IL not
supplied to the taxpayers free nor even
at cost. The Water Department Is a
money making institution, and the tax
payers have to pay for the water. The
money made by the operation of the
water system not only maintains it,
but the surplus goes to relieve the
taxpayers Of the city In other direc-
tons. The money made by the sale Of
the Iockport water power, would. it
Is contended, help maintain the eX-
penses of the maintenance and opera
ton of the canal and to retire some of
the sanitary district bonds. and In 9th
or ways relieve the taxpayers Of the
district. There Is no difference in prin-
ciple between these two propositions.
