Boone. Dec. 2.--Superintendent r. r.
Cobb acted as judge in case in Which
the town of Berkeley asked for the
change of the school house from its
present location across the creek east
of town. into the town corporation linn
its. Against this proposition. L. w. Ell
lis and W. M. McGregor, who reside
across the creek and east of town, put
up strong objection.
1t was claimed that the school has
thirty eight pupils. seven of whom lived
east of the stream and thirty one of
whom resided in or near Berkeley, and
that the schoolhouse should be moved
into the town that it might accommodate
the greater number of pupils, who
were at times prevented from getting
to school on account of the over flow
of the stream.
In his decision Superintendent Cobb
finds the action of tine board was right
and sustains their action removing the
school to Berkeley.

Deafness Can Not Be Cured

by local applications, as they can not
reach the diseased portion OF the ear.
There is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an in-
famed condition Of the mucous lining
of the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube is infiamed you have runbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when
it is entirely closed, deafness is the re-
suit, and unless the Inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored to
its normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out OF
ten are caused by Catarrh, which is
nothing but an inflamed condition Of
the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars

catarrh) that can not be cured BY Halls

several large structures enclosed before
winter weather sets in and have pushed
the work on several recent Sabbath
days, mass meeting OF the laymen
of the churches of the city has censurei
Mayor Bennett for permitting work to
be continued on Sundays
The action of the contractors had
been openly defended by the mayor in
published interview, and thi. in
censed the laymen, who had been called
together to endorse the call of the min
isterial association inviting Evangelist
Sunday to hold meetings in Fort
Dodge.
The real business of the evening
had hardly been disposed of before a
resolution was moved that Mayor
Bennett be censured for his toler-
ance in allowing the Dissertation of
the Sabbath by any workers in the
city, and that especial censure be eN-
pressed that during the fall and pri or

the paving of Central avenue and
other public works to be carried on
on the Sabbath day in violation OF
both the state and the ordinances OF

fourth commandment
The Offering of the resolution drew

in attendance at the laymen's mass
meeting discussed the question in 8
manner which showed the law given
to Moses on Mount Sinai. on the tab
let of stone and which are known
as the ten commandments are still
the foundation of all law. and that
while Mayor Bennett would order ms
guilty of the sixth, the seventh, he

the breaking of the seventh and the

vote on the resolution of censure car
ried unanimously.
Rev. o. r. o. Farrell, secretary of
| the Ministerial Association was in
structed to draft the resolution and if

tention will at least be invited to the
seventh chapter of the eighteentt

A BAD LIVER.

A celebrated English authority once
said, The liver is the direct cause of nine
tenths of the ills that flesh is heir to-" It
is the largest gland in ebody. The blood
must pass through the liver many times in
an hour. When your liver is out of order
you will have pains or uneasiness in the
right side, or dull aching under the shout
der blade. The complexion becomes sal
low, your appetite is impaired, your bowels
inactive; while headaches, dizziness and
bad feelings are your daily experience.
In all such cases almost instant relief is
afforded by the use of Smiths Pineapple
and Butternut Pills, which are marvellous
success in curing all forms of liver COM
plant, including biliousness and jaundice.
They restore ar inactive and torpid liver to
healthy action, regulate the bowels and
cleanse the blood. A weeks use of
Smiths Pineapple and Butternut Pills by
bilious or constipated person will make life
really worth living They are invalu9Nle
for all stomach, liver and bowel troubles.
Physicians use and recommend They
form no habit. You should ali.ag5 keep
them on hand. These little VeTetable
Pills will ward off many ills.

MAKE OLD PAPER INTO NEW
Utica Company Will Employ New
Process

Utica Company viii Employ New
Process
The city of Utica, n. Y, has new
company which proposes to manufac-
ture all grades of paper from old
newspapers, books, magazines, etc,
by using a process for eliminating the
ink and coloring matter from such
printed paper, thus utilizing some
ming which Is now mostly wasted
and destroyed to get it out of the
way The new process, it is said,
will preserve all of the strength of
the old paper and make new paper
equal in every way to the old paper
and ready for use as white print pa
per, wall paper toilet paper, wrap
ping paper etc.
The rapid disappearance of the
trees from which the wood pulp is
, made that is used to make the pres
ept supply OF paper has caused much
alarm among paper users who see in
! the near future paper famine inn
minent Desperate efforts have been
made to find a substitute for wood
pulp, but to no avail. The United
States government conducted an ex-
| tensive experiment with corn stalks,
only to find that it was not practical.
Other material has been tried with
! like results and the paper trust has
! vainly tried to find some method of
eliminating the ink from printed pa
per, but without success and it re-
NAMED for William b. Mirxell and
Harry +. Jackson after much expert
menting to discover the right process
and this they have done.
Before the organization of this COM
pany, a practical demonstration was
made at the Clayvile Paper com
panys mill by Mr.. Jackson and the
result proved beyond the shadow of
a doubt that this process is a perfect
success in every way, and the forma-
ton of company quickly followed.
( The chief supply of wood pulp comes
! from Canada and as the government
! of Canada has taken steps to forbid
| the export of pulp and pulp wood af-
ter January /, 1910, the situation is
critical and this new source of supply
which will utilize the paper that has
/ formerly been wasted. comes oppor-
/ timely to save the paper users from
having to pay eXtravagant prices for
paper. The United States has been
practically denuded of all trees fit for
wood pulp and Canada has the only
supply and that is rapidly disappear
ing to the manifest alarm of their
{! government. The new concern is
