A Tall Bear story,

bear inside a hollow log. Well, of

last 1 thought of cutting four holes
in the log, about where the bears

With advanced age comes inactive bowel

pie and persons of weak constitution who

Fun and nonsense and some dancing

that is hardly up to the average. Tom
Waters with his pianoiOgue and mono

in the bill. His work was so good in

80 minutes and then called for more,
while Tom was forced to wave a red flag
20 let it be known that his stock of fun
was exhausted.
SansOne and Della opened the bill with
a novelty gymnastic and juggling act. As
the curtain went up, the male member OF
the team was seen sitting at a table hold
ing alOft at arms length chair in which
his partner was seated. Then followed a
series of balancing acts in which the
woman was used as an object. Sansone
capped the climax by balancing a bar on
his chin with his companion on bicycle

DEEP SEATED COUGH
CURED IN 5 HOURS
New Homemade Syrup.
(Cut This Out.)
From Boston Press.

Progress in medical compounds never
ceases, and now 1t is stated by promi-
nent medical man that any deep-seated
cough or cold on the lungs can be ac-
tually cured in five hours by the clock.
Opium and morphine have been resort
ed to in the past as relief measures. But
now it is learned that the system must
be treated to rid it of inflammation and
congestion. A tonic laxative cough syrup
does the work so quickly and thoroughly
as TO be almost magical. What hereto
fore has taken weeks TO cure can be ac-
complished in hours. Get this formula
filled or mix II at home and always keep
1t on hand: One-half ounce fluid wild
cherry bark, one ounce compound essence
cardiol and three ouEces syrup white pine
compound. Shake the bottle and take
twenty drops every half hour for four
hours Then take one-hslf to one tea
spoonful three or four times a day I'M
til the system is purified and toned up.
Give children less according to age. One
filling will usually cure a whole family,
as the dose is small.

HAPPENINGS IN UTAH TOWNS
.EpHRA|M'S GYMNASIUM
Council Takes Steps to Provide
Rooms and Equip These in Mod
ern Style.

Especial to The Herald-Republlcsn.)
Ephraim, Nov. AT a meeting of the
city council held at the city hall many
matters of importance were presented.
Councilman Hans Peterson called atten-
ton to the fact that the employees of the
railroad are causing annoyance by block
aiding the crossing. Mayor Beal said he
had served notice on the offenders that,
unless they ceased to blockade the cross
ings more than five minutes at a time.
the city would institute proceedings. The
question of installing a gymnasium and
public library was taken up, and the COM
mlttee on public property and grounds
was authorized TO proceed with the work
of remodeling the upper floor and base
ment of the Central school building for
that purpose. This committee will pre-
pare plans of the work to be done on the
building, and will then call for bids from
contractors. Although nothing definite
has been announced in regard to the
plans, 1t is understood that they will in
clude the installation of a cement floor
in the basement, the plastering of the
walls and ceiling IF the upper floor, and
the placing of several partitions. The
upper floor viii be arranged for a read
ing room, a council chamber and perhaps
a room for the use of the Commercial
club. All the rooms will be equipped with
up-to-date furniture. The reading room
VIII contain the current periodicals and
newspapers and viii doubtless be the be-
ginning of one of the best public libra
r1es outside of Salt Lake and ogden.
1t is expected that many pubiic-spirit-
ed citizens will donate books and read
ing matter to the library, and the city
may take advantage Of the new library
gymnasium law to improve on this be-
ginning. The basement will be equipped
with some appliances of modern gymnas-
ties, and this will probably include at
least two shower baths. 1t is planned to
have the building ready by Jan. l. 1910.
The matter of making these Improvements
was called to the attention of the coun-
ell by w. f. Murray. as a delegate from
the Commercial club, although it is I'M
derstOod that some of the coTncilmcn had
decided to urge immediate action by the
council at Mondays session.
