ADJUSTMENTS

Book demonstrations in general
have not met with universal favor
for the one reason it has been
necessary for the dramatist to
leave out many of the interesting
parts of the story. In the case
with Mort w. Sanford's drama
tization of Sir A Conan Doyle's
great Sherlock Holmes tale, "a
Study in Scarlet it is the oppo-
site for he has interpolated many
essentials into the piece, making
it decidedly more pleasing and
presentable than the book. A
beautiful production Of this play
will be given at the City Opera
House on Thursday eve. Jan. 9Th.
under the management Of Tom
Arthur. The seat sale will be
opened at the usual place and
time in advance.

In the morning I went to look

Upon examination I found that
the other two had been devoured
by wolves and only a part of their
feet was left in the two traps. =

Do Not Suppress a Cough.

When you have cough do not
try to suppress it, but remove
the cause. The cough is only a
symptom of some disease, and
the disease is what you should
cure, then the cough will stop it,
self. The most common cause of
coughing is a cold. Anodynes
will promptly suppress the cough
and preparations containing
chloroform, opium, ETC., are used
for that purpose, but they do not
cure the cold. Chamberlain s
Cough Remedy on the other hand
does not suppress the cough, but
relieves it by removing from the
throat and lungs the mucus
which INSTRUCTED tine breathing
and allaying the irritation and
tickling in the throat. It also
opens the secretions and efectu-
ally and permanently cures the
cold as well as the cough. For
sale by Barker's Drug store.

yesterday afternoon on the west

driven to SolWay, where he was
made as comfortable as possible
in one of the coaches but died be-
fore reaching the next station.
The body was removed from the

To the Voters of School Dist. No. p

In my letter to the public last
week announcing myself as can
didate for the office of school Treas
urer stated that the salary of 81 600
a year was too much to pay for the
services of that official.
I have been criticised for this
statement; many have insisted it
was at least $2,000>a a year. Seeing
the interest that is being taken in
this matter have made inquiries
and find that for the present fiscal
year the salary of the Treasurer at
2 per cent on the funds expended
will amount to 1870 or $114OO per
month. Now the paying of this
"enormous salary" looks to me ike
waste of public funds and in view
of these facts will pledge if 1 am
elected:
1st. That I will not under any Cir
cumstances accept more than $500
per month for my services.
2nd. That will endeavor to or
ganize this into an independent
school district consisting of board
of six directors, instead of three as
at present. =.
3rd. That will labor to maintain
the highest degree of proficiency in
the schools. -. =
4th. That in purchasing supplies
for the schools am in favor of CALI
ing for bids and awarding the con-
tract to the lowest responsible bid
der. s, : IS
9Th. That I am in favor of having
the minutes of the meetings of the
School Board published in full in
the local papers so that the public
will at all times know what actions
are being taken by the board. 81 4

support upon these questions and
