SUFFERED SEVEN YEARS
BUT WAS CURED

Fennvile. Mich. June 1S-Mr. r. G..
Payne. a prominent citizen Of this city.
has travelled oxtensiveIy 4or many years
in order to find a climate where he would
be free from asthma. The fact that he
was cured right in his own home is due
entirely to his faith in following the ad-
vice of q friend who recommended the
new Toxico treatment
This remedy has been so successful in
curing hundreds of cases that a company
has been formed solely 70 distribute this
treatment among sufferers throughout the
United States. A free trial of Toxico Will
be mailed to any one addressing the Tox-
leo Co., 1923 Broadway, New York city.

Favor the Tax.

Petitions asking the property tax
payers of the Third Ward 10 vote a
special tax of 100000 year for
ten years in favor of ihe st Tam
many and New Orleans Railroad
and Ferry Ce. are being signed by
nearly every tax payer in the Ward.
The Fourth Ward, realizing the
great benefit to be derived from
this road and its line of fast boats
across the Lake voted almost unan-
imousely for The tax last yevr.
With this road in operation, the
country between Ramsay, Coving-
ton, Abita Springs and Vaudeville
would rapidly be settled up by peo.
pie from the city seeking homes in
the pure air of the famous ozone
belt, as it would supply the only
thing needful at present, cheap and
rapid transit. The proposition in
its new shape, IS meeting with al
most unanimous Endorsement, and
will doubtless be carried by a
large majority.

myself and number of my friends
did join the Citizens League. We

Mr., Sanford, although not a voter,

side Of the Progressive ~ ticket,
He got out posters, saw that they
were distributed, and devoted
practically his whole time to the
interest Of the Progressive (?)
ticket. Ii Mr.. Sanford did any
thing for the League for at least a
month before the election but draw
his salary, did any one hear of it?
In fact, did any one ever hear of
Sanford doing anything but draw
his salary?
The League and its Secretary
have been complete failure. My
self and friends have had nothing
whatever to do with the League
since it was demonstrated to our
satisfaction that its energies were
devoted to the election of the Pro-
gressive (?) ticket, instead of try
ing to build up Covington.

building of cottages IN St. Tam

meeting, which was we'll attended.
The reports Of the various commit
tees were read and matters of rou-

Grafton. Several months ago it was
proposed to build sanitarIum on
the cottage plan, designs for which
were drawn by Crosby and Hen
kel OF this city. 1t was proposed
to make start with twenty five
cottages, which will be supplied
with all modern improvements
The buildings will be in a circle
so as to afford greater facilities of
communication one with the other.
There was read a letter from N.
G. Cromwell, president of the
Crescent Felt Mattress Company,
through the Times Democrat, offer
ing donation of one dozen Of the
sanitary mattresses manufactured
by the company for the cottages.
The offer was gladly accepted.

Our Timber Heritage.

There is hardly a tree standing in
our forest that has not commercial
values value that is constantly in
creasing as the country is develop
ing. In the light of this fact 1t is
criminal folly in any man to fell
timber to take in new ground, when
scientific agriculture points the way
to the speedy reclamation of wcrn
out lands By judicious fertilizlng
and rotation of crops. Our timber
heritage has been abused as bad
if not worse than our lands, and
souno economy pleads that both
abuses cease and that we should
appreciate what we have and not
depreciste it by a policy that is ut
terly defenseIess from any view
point.
