HOW THE RURAL TELEPHONE
SERVICE MAY BE IMPROVED.

10 inc E1ttc'
This seems to be the age Of the tel
cphone lines In the rural parts OF the
country and many phone lines from
the homes of farmers run into Bryan.
Now where two or more lines run In
on the same road II would be better
to put all the wires on the same line
OF poles. Oak poles cut and bark
peeled off In June. July or August last
a long time. Now II six lines Of wires
we're put on single line Of poles. on
one cross arm. II will not cost much
and can be kept in much better order.
Where the lines cross a road the poles
should be larger and taller and set
deeper In the ground. Where the lines
run along a fence the line poles need
not be SO tall. But In no case should
the poles be more than fifty-five
yards apart. The cross arms should
be well braced. and this can be done
with wire and staples. II Is costly TO
run three or four lines OF wire each
on a separate line Of polrs and TO keep
them in working order much more
costly than when all run on one line
OF poles.
Cross talk cannot be avoided ON
grounded wires: n those who are
able wiz put mp two wires for each
line they can be placed so there win
be no Interference from other lines

New Remedy That Cures Eczema
Quickly.

n. 3. Danforth has sold hundreds Of
jars of Hokara in the last few weeks,
and although he offered to refund the
purchase price to any dissatisfied pur-
chaser, not one jar was returned.
While this is surprising in itself. yet

of chronic cases of eczema that have
been cured by this simple skin food.
People who have suffered with scales,
scabs and even bleeding itching have
found relief in Hokara.
No matter where the eczema, pimples
or other breaking out occurs, whether
on the face hands. legs or body. the
application of Hokara will give quick
relief. and even The worst or most
chronic cases will be cured in a short

You can buy a liberal sized jar at a
