WHISKY TAX.

This committee has fixed the
assessment on whisky at $40 pei
barrel. At other times this has
been done, but the board has been
persuaded to let the former amount
stand. OF course the distillers
will object. At this rating the
whisky is assessed at about 20
cents per gallon. They insist that
the stuff cannot be profitably han

Unless early and correct treatment is
applied the patient seldom survives
when once the disease is fastened upon
her. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound is the most efficient treat
ment for kidney troubles of women,
and is the only medicine especially
prepared for this purpose.
When woman is troubled with pain
or weight in loins, backache, frequent,
painful on scalding urination, swelling
of limbs or feet, swelling under the
eyes, an uneasy, tired feeling in the
region of the kidneys or notices q brick
dust sediment in the urine, she should
lose no time in commencing treatment
with Lydia E. Pinkhams Vegetable
Compound, as it may be the means of
saving her life.
For proof, read what Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound did for Mrs.
Sawyer.
" cannot express the terrible suffering l

organs developed nervous prostration and q

Queer Proofs of Love.

Nine. Myriam Harry, the Partisan
novelist who has travelled about the
world a good deal, tells what evil
dences of affection are priced by men
and women in different countries In
Jerusalem she once met young Arab
woman who had not a tooth left In
her head. Nine. Harry's native SER
want said: Lucky woman; her hus
band knocked all her teeth out. He
does love her." In Cochin China
Nine. Harry was told that there a
husband was not believed to love his
wife properly until he had made
present to her of coffin. In Galicia,
among the sect of masochists, man
values his wife's affection by the de-
grees of suffering which she causes
him to endure. Nine. Harry there
once heard betrothed youth say to
his affianced bride: IF you really
loved me you would consent to bind
me and fog me with this whip" At
Stockholm one of Nine Harry's
friends is now suing her husband for
divorce on the ground that "he does
not love her soulfully."

Does II Paw?

The nervous man had just met his
friend, who for some months past had
been in retirement for his health.
II have sometimes thought it might
be good thing for man to 60 away
for awhile" he said, "and to get cured
perhaps of habits that were gaining
too strong hold on him. l changed
my opinion on the second part of that
proposition, however, after had an
evening with a friend of mine who had
just come back from course of treat
ment.
1--WE we're together in a cafe for an
hour or more. During all that time he
would, of course, not take a drink.
Such a thing never occurred to him.
But he would take some coffee. l
think I had two highballs while we
talked know he had seven pots of
black coffee. There didn't seem to
be much doubt that he had gotten
over one habit. He had acquired an
other, however, that made it seem
stand-off whether he had gained by
the change"

William R. Merriam was talking in
New York about the last census
"All sorts Of odd and interesting

"One of the collectors told me how
he had visited a village, and how, on

of villagers had gathered around him,
anxious to know how much their pop
ulation had increased in the last ten
years.
"'It has increased said the father

only increased six
"'Oh, dear! There must be some

Hot weather tended to retard activ-
ity in many productive undertakings and
postponed forward business that could
be delayed without loss, but accelerated
the consumption of seasonable merchan-
disc and advanced the crops much near

increases with each day favorable for
harvesting, and much of the Winter

corn is rapidly regaining lost ground.

CHANGED HUSBAND.
Wife Made Wise Change In Food.

Change of diet is the only way to
really cure stomach and bowel trouble.
A woman says:
''My husband had dyspepsia when we
were married and had suffered from it
for several years. 1t was almost i'm
possible to find anything lie could eat
without bad results.
81 thought this was largely due to
the use of coffee. and persuaded him to
discontinue it. He did so, and began to
drink Postum Food Coffee. The change
did him good from the beginning. his
digestion improved; he suffered much
less from his nervousness. and when
he added Grape-Nuts food to his diet
he was soon entirely cured.
my friend, Mrs. of Vicks-
burg (my former home), had become a
nervous wreck also from dyspepsia.
Medicines had no effect, neither did
travel help her. On my last visit home
some months ago. persuaded her to
use Grape-Nuts food. She was in de-
spair and consented. She stuck to it
until it restored her health SO COM

We find Winchester Repeating Rifles
and Shotguns are being offered by certain
of the trade, not customers of ours, at cut
prices, and that such guns have been
altered since leaving the factory, includ-
ing the changing and oblteration of the
factory serial numbers.
Not knowing to what further extent
these arms have been tempered with, we
take this opportunity of advising the
public in general that we assume no re-
sponsibility whatever connected with any
such arms, and caution all buyers to see
that the numbers have not been changed
or obliterated.
All genuine Winchester Repeating Rifles
and Shotguns are numbered and all Win
chester Single Shot Rifles are numbered,
except the Models 1900. 1902, 1904, and
the Thumb Ttgger Model
