he world over more than any other
two remedies the world has ever
known, for anemia or poor blood,
weakness, conva lescence and all vast

Iron, because il is the basis of the
blood and without sufficient amount
the blood is impoverished, watery,
pale and impure.
Cod liver oil. because it contains
curative and reconstructive qualities
greater than that possessed by any
other one medicinal agent.
In Vinol, modern science has given

LESSONS LEARNED BY CITIES.

Mismanas cement and Financial Trou-
bles Constantly Coming to Light.
New Hampton. Ia, Is learning the
meaning Of depreciation. 1t recently
found 1t necessary to discard the cleo
trio equipment that had been in use
but four years and put In an entirely
new equipment. For several months
II has been trying to sell the old equip
ment. which cost $4,000. but has not
yet found purchaser. Its scrap value
is OF course very small.
Fitzgerald. Ca. has apparently learn
ed In part at least the lessons that
trust and ''bust" are practically sy-
nonymous and that in the long run II
doesn't pay to sell below cost. At least
that Is the natural deduction from the
following item In the Journal of that
city:
Beginning with this month. consum-
ers will only have until the 10th Of the
| month to make their settlement with
| the city. Water and light will both be
cut off on the 18th Of each month from
this on. Then In the future meters for
both water and light will either be
sold or rented to consumer. The city
will no longer furnish them free Of
charge. The meters will either be sold
at their actual cost or will be rented
to the consumer at % cents each month.
| A charge from now on for light con-
nection of So Will be made. and this
fee must accompany the application
for a connection"
| Falls City, Neb.. is learning that 1t Is
easier to vote bonds than to sell them.
for the mayor writes that no purchaser
has yet been found fer the per cent
bonds voted on July NJ to improve the
light and water plant This is a lesson
that other and larger cities are learn
ing to their sorrow. though 1t should
not be a matter Of surprise where 'im-
provements" involve the practical WHIP
ing out of the present equipment.
which has not been paid for.
Hamilton. Ont. Is one of many cities
that are learning that manufacturers
are curiously prone to serve their good
customers first. 1t is disappointed be-
cause of the delay I'm the delivery of
the new equipment for its electric light
plant. All manufacturers know and al
low for the fact that city warrants are
apt to cash themselves slowly and that
acceptance of supplies or machinery
often depends upon crossing the right
palm with gold. A manufacturers
agent told the writer two stories to
illustrate this.
In one case after trying for two
years to collect bill he was finally
paid in city warrants. Even then he
could cash them only by selling them
to the local political boss at a discount
that more than absorbed the profits.
In this other case his firm installed
some expensive machinery In city
plant. No sooner had the firms work
men left than the report came that the
machine was not working properly.
An expert was sent on to adjust 1t.
After this had been repeated several
times a man approached the expert
with the remark: you've a good ma
chinist but poor politician. You'll
never get an acceptance until you've
paid the superintendent 500 and tho
chief engineer $50" And he was right.

Loss on Eight Months Operation.

About fifty citizens attended a meet

to listen to official statements relative
to the financial condition Of the light
and heating plant. with a view to get
ting the sentiment of the taxpayers
on the suggestion to sell the plant. The
ACCESSIBILITY of issuing bonds to i'm
prove the water system was also con-
sidered.
Clerk Osborne made a report Of the
receipts and disbursements at the pow
er house for the past eight months. A
material loss In operating the plant
was shown, which 1t is evident cannot
be avoided under municipal ownership
and present operating conditions.
A motion that the council be required
to submit at special election propo-
sition to sell the light and heating
plant. provided that no bid less than
the present Indebtedness OF the plant
lie considered. carried by four-fifths
vote.
The editor OF the Beacon states that
the plant has always been operated
at heavy loss"

Little Emma was intensely inter

She had any number of preconceived
ideas of what lovers talked about be.
fore they were married. and so when
one afternoon her sisters fiance ar
rived to make a call she followed the

and took up position directly in

and gazing at the young man with a
romantic expression on her ardent
face, little Emma remarked eagerly:

There Is an eternal masculine as
there 10 an eternal feminine. and In
the young masculine animal OF the
human race the idea that It Is not con-
sistent with his dignity and strength
OF character to be considered too good
develops early. This was shown the
other day by very little man named
Vincent, who Is SO small that his
knowledge Of the use Of words Is as
yet very rudimentary. The little girl.
who is older. had returned from Sun
day school, and grandmamma had
asked her. on general principles. what
the lesson was about.
"Oh. about angels" replied the little
girl indefinitely. and then, seeing a pos
sible application, she turned to the
baby. adding, And you are little
angel, aren't you. Vincent"
Baby might have been expected to
be pleased at this compliment, affec-
tionately given. but not at all. He
screwed up his small face. threw all
the force Of his small mind into the
putting together Of the proper words,
and burst out:
"No-I bad boy"
