The more Harts' Honey aud Hore- hound is used the better 1t is liked.
 We know of nothing so good for croup or whooping cough. It is good when you first take cold, It is good when your cough IS deep seated or your lungs sore or painful. It is good for any kind of cough. Gran Hammond. railroad man at LeRoy, H., says, that his success depends upon the condition Of his health and that his lung trouble has been completely cured by using Harts' Honey and Horehound, after having tried other well known medicines without bene- fit. y Sold by J. T. Nelson, druggist.

Wood County reporter. [volume] (Grand Rapids [i.e. Wisconsin Rapids], Wis.) 1857-1923, 1905-05-02
FREE DELIVERY PROMISED
BY SEPTEMBER

We received another letter from
Congressman Brown, who has been
diligent in pushing Grand Rapids
demands for Free Delivery Service of
mail, this week, in which he inclosed
a letter to us from the Fourth
Assistant Postmaster General, which
will explain itself. The letter follows:
April q, 1905.
HON. w. E. BROWN,
House of Representatives.
SIR: Receipt is acknowledged, of
your letter of the 18th instant, setting
forth the facts as to the consolidation
of the post offices at Centrslia and
Grand Rapids, Wisconsin,: :on June l.,
last, the demand of the patrons of
those offices for the city free delivery
service, and that the gross receipts of
the Grand Rapids office for the year
ended March 81, last, were 81, ,366.47.
In reply you are Informed that the
law provides specifically that the gross
receipts for the year ending on June
30 are to be taken as the basis for
esta blishing service, and not the
receipts for the year ending On March
81, which are those on which the
salaries of postmasters are based.
The gross receipts of the Grand
Rapids post Office for the fiscal year
ended on June 30, last, were less than
the legal minimum of $4,000, so that
definite action looking to the
esta blishment of the service is im-
possible during the current fiscal year.
1t is, however, evident from the past
history of the two offices which have
been combined and from the receipts
for the year ended on March 81, last,
that the gross receipts for the current
fiscal year will be we'll above the legal
requirements, and measures will be
taken at once to have the usual
investigation with a view to laying
out the carrier districts and otherwise
preparing for the service so that II
may be instituted as soon as possible
after June 80, next.
The order for the establishment OF
the service can not be issued until the
receipts for the fiscal year ended or
that date are known, and as the Civil
Service Commission desires at least
sixty days notice in order that the
requisite examination for candidates
for carriers and substitutes may be
held, it is improbable that the service
can gointo effect before September /
Very respectfully,
| r. DEGRAw,
Fourth Assistant Postmaster Gen
eral.

GROWING In
INTEREST AND NUMBERS

Evangelists DeVoe and Shields were
greeted by crowded house Sunday
evening and the audience was by far
the largest assembled in the hall since
the services began. Mr.. Shields sang
Beautiful Home of Paradise" and
Mr.. DeVoe spoke upon Sowing and
Reaping." He said that we always
reap both in nature and grace the
same kind of thing as we SOW and
more OF it.
He said it was a poor crop that
didn't beat the seed sower. He said
card playing for prizes In the homes
was wrong and was gambling and
helped produce the gambler and the
den; that dancing was worldly and
created wrong impulses, desires and
results; that he would like to see the
color OF the fellows eye and cut OF his
hair that could put his arm around
his wife and swing her around the
dance floor. Bad books, dishonest
ways and wicked practices all came
in for their share of condemnation as
he showed the fearful consequences OF
such things in the lives Of men and
women all around us. The sermon
was strong and practical and calculated
to do much good for all who will
follow the counsel given.
At 800 O'Clock Sunday afternoon
Mr.. DeVoe also addressed an audience
of men only. A half hundred men
were present and the service helpful.
The evangelist spoke for over an hour
in his usual earnest and soul stirring
way, dealing with wrongs In the lives
of men unsparingly and pleading with
them for the highest and best In their
lives. The address was eloquent and
mastery and touched mems hearts
and stirred their conscience for good.
He will speak tonight on Church
History" A church organization will
soon be effected and will be known as
''The Church of Christ"

WAUSAU WON FIRST
AND SECOND PLACES

The Wausau Daily News of Satur
day, contained the following report o1
the declamatory contest held in tina,
city Friday night. in which two Of
our Grand Rapids young ladies took
part as follows:
1.-THE league declamatory exercises
held in the assembly room of the high
school, last evening, were well at
tended. In this there were two
entries each from Wausau, Merrill
Stevens Point and Grand Rapids,
The judges were Prof. H. G. Secrist
of the Stevens Point Normal, Prin
w. J. Hamilton of New London, and
Principal w. III. Hickock of Amigo

terested in the outcome of the con.
test, and for this reason, it is
especially gratifying to note that first
and second places were won by
pupils of the Wausau high schools
which will have double represen-
tation of the district contest soon to
be held in Stevens Point. The winners
we're, first place, Miss Mary Mcneil,
Wausau: second, Miss Elsie DuPre,
Wausau; third, Miss Mamma Hoegh,
Merrill. For first place it was tie
between Miss Mcneil and Miss DuPre,
but this was eventually decided in
favor of the former. 1t is peculiar
fact that at the local contest, held to
select the contestants for the last
nights affair, these same two young
ladies were also tied for first place,
which was eventually given to Miss
Mcneil.
The decision of the judges appeared
to be generally satisfactory, even the
contestants admitting that the two
successful Wausau declaimers had
showed more than ordinary ability in
this direction. The nOn-SuccesSful
competitors all made very favorable
showing and the only regret is that
so much good material was all punched
in one contest.
Interesting features of the program
were numbers by the High school
orchestra and quartette.
