The company met for the weekly
drill, last Tuesday evening. After a
good long drill by the Captain, very
strenuous physical drill was given,
which was enjoyed by all. After being
dismissed, everybody pitched in and
cleaned up the building. The scheme
of cleaning out the armory by squads
has been very successful so far and the
members certainly deserve the thanks
of the officers for working the way
they do.
At the business meeting A. Glawe
was elected member of the company
and another application was read and
posted A committee was appointed
for the annual New Years banquet. A
committee was also appointed to make

Epilepsy,
Fits

My son was cured of a very
bad case of epilepsy with DR..
Miles Nervine.

"My little daughter who was
afflicted with St. Vitus' Dance
is now entirely we'll after taking
DR.. Miles Nervine only four
months"
MRS. C. G. BENNETT,
Alma, Mich.
Epilepsy, Fits, St. Vitus'
Dance and Spasms, are all nerv-
Gus diseases. They have been
cured in so many instances with
DR.. Miles Nervine that it is
reasonable to conclude that it is
almost sure to cure you. With
nervous diseases of a severe
type, persistent use has almost
invariably resulted in a complete
cure or lasting benefits, worth
many times the cost of the rem
edy. The best evidence you can
get off its merits is to write to
those who have used it. Get a
bottle from your druggist. Take
it all according to directions, and
if it does not benefit he will re-
turn your money.

"Whatis Il dollar apybow2 fAe
question is an easy one to answer. a
dollar is what some men promise TO
pay for their codutry paper. IL b
something newspaper man enjoys
more in anticipation then in reality. 1t
is the price of "a days work for some
men aud a single nights drink for
others. 1t is what the wife frequently
needs, but seldom has. 1t is the power
that makes or unmakes mer. 1t is the

blessing in small measure anda curse

this paper you are reading, as well as
for several of its ancestors. Did you
ever seean editors poeketbook? Well
it is just as fallible and prone to empti-
ness as those of other common mortals.
The newspaper business hash yet been
brought to that degree of perfection
that It can be run without expense,
and until that is successfully done we
shall be under the painful necessity of
asking you for a little cash, now and

and were sold for less than SO. Why?I
Because they belong to that class of
people who never pay an honest debt,
nor expect to pay one il they can help
it. The prime cause of this state of
things is the credit system AS the
cancer is to humanity so is the credit
system to the business world. Pohti-
clans are quarreling about Protection

on the people of this country, it would
be "A vastly greater benefit than either.
The credit system caters to the morbid
desire of certain class of people who
live beyond their means. II gives them
a chance to get everything they want;
not what they really want, but what
they think they want. Then there is
a class of people who lack moral STAN
ina. They never pay book account,
but may pay cash when they cant get
credit. These human parasites are the
cause of more real suffering than any
thing else under our government, ex-
cluding whisky. The economy of ma
ture, perfect as it is lacks one thing
