JUST THE SAME.
TO CURE RHEUMATISM

Prescription that Cured Hundreds
Since Published Here.
"One ounce syrup of Sarsaparilla
compound; one ounce Toris COM
pound; Add these to half pint of good
whiskey: Take tablespoonful be-
fore each meal and at bed time;
Shake the bottle well each time"
Any druggist has these ingredients
in stock or will quickly get them from
his wholesale house. Good results are
felt from this treatment after the first
few doses but it should be continued
until cured. This also acts as system
builder, eventually restoring strength
and vitality.

To Church Pastors.

Each and every year fifteen
hundred graves are opened in
Kansas through the negligence
of society or the indifference of
the state.
Every six hours of the day
some one dies of a disease that is
curable-of a plague that is pre-
ventable.
Considering our enlightened
humanity, this record is appall-
ing; considering our advanced
position in alltrustic efforts, our
inactivity is almost criminal.
In the face of such a waste OF
human life l am constrained to
appeal to the pulpit, as well as
to the press, for cooperative as
sistance in the suppression OF
tuberculosis. 1t is a terrible
enemy, and money alone cannot
subdue it. We must have in the
fight against it something more
potent than money or skill-the
hearts and souls of men and
women.
Doctor Crumbine, great
soldier in the cause, tells me
that through the influence of our
permanent temperance policy,
and the natural healthfulness of
our climate, we can check con-
sumption at once, and eradicate
it entirely in few years, if we
wisely employ our intelligence
and combine our efforts in the
work.
l earnestly ask all the pastors
in the state to preach sermon
on the subject on Sunday, April
"a, and hope and trust you will
not find anything inconsistent
with your religious system in an
effort so palpably promotive of
the happiness of the people.
l also earnestly venture the
request that the social and fra
ternal organizations of the state
attend these services, individual
ly or in bodies, so that still
wider distribution may be given
to the discourses of the day.
Sincerely,
w. X. Stubs,
Governor of Kansas.

has sold real estate to the
amount of $1OO,OOO.OO. They
are having large order of books

to increase the amount in the
next six months by consider
able sum. They are hustlers,

A Model Campbell System Farm

Someti ime ago the matter of
establishing a model farm under
the management of Mr.. Camp
bell was discussed by the farm
ers, and Mr.. Frank Bowen wrote
to him concerning it. The reply
of Mr.. Campbell suggested that
the Rock Island had the promot-
ing of such farm under advise
ment, or had decided on such a
move. Mr.. Bowen and others
came to us with that letter, ask
ing that the News take the mat
ter up with the o fiji c a S
Of the road. Accordingly we
wrote Mr.. Sebastian and he re-
fered it to l.. M. Allen, Passen-
ger Traffic Manager, whose re-
ply we hand you herewith.
Please note Mr.. Sebastain's
opinion of commercial club.
81 have your esteemed favor of
18th instant, in respect to ex-
perimental or model farm in
your section.
The establishment of expert
mental or model farms along our
lines is question that has been
considered at various times and
is still under advisement.

your paper, in which you sug-
gest that Meade organize COM
mercial club to exploit the
merits of your city and the sur
rounding country as a suitable
location for the establishment
not only of this experimental or
model farm but also of indus
trial enterprises. Such an or
ganization would, undoubtedly,
promote the welfare of your city
and do much to aid in the settle
ment and development of the
country. This has been the ex-
perience of otherlocalIties where
similar organizations have been
formed.

A party in Dodge City, who
evidently had little faith in banks
kept his wealth in a place pre-.
pared in his cellar wall. The re.
cepticle was recess built into
the wall into which a steel box
was placed. This was closed in
by a steel door, over which a
wooden door shut. This again
was hid by a piece of carpet
hung over it. In the steel box
he had $4,000 in gold coins,
mostly double eagles. A person
other than the owner some how
learned of the safety depot, and
entering the cellar via an outside
door, distracted the box and cut
into it with a pick, taking out
the cash. The hole in the lid
was very ragged with many
sharp points. John Wells was
observed to be wearing gloves
without good reason. He was
arrested and his hands found
scratched in way he did not ac-
count for, and he is being held
for investigation. The officers
believe they have a line on the
hiding place of the gold.

Watch Meade grow.

A. D. Walker is in Meade this
week looking after his various
farms.
Mrs. J. l. Stamper was i'll the
fore part of the week, but is i'm
proving some.
Mrs. Laura Pillsbury of Okla
homa, was the guest of Mrs. N.
M. Ellis last week.
Rhees Singley was in town
Monday and says that crops in
general are doing well on the
head of Stumps Aroya, but that
the frost got most of his peaches.
Howard Norman was in Meade
Friday from his artesian ranch.
Mr.. Norman will soon put the
finishing touches on his irriga-
ton plant and be ready for the
summers work.
John Sweet went down to
Hutchinson this week to take
his place as pitcher in a league
ball team. John has a fine ply
sique and should make record
as a crack pitcher.
Dave Mackey came up from
the Cimarron this week on busi-
ness. Mr., Mackey thinks the
early fruit such as peaches and
plums are all killed by the frost
along the river, but later fruit
may be all right.
Won Prosky's band was out
this week practicing marching.
The boys are we'll advanced in
straight playing, but have not
had any street practice. A few
lessons and they will be able to
follow the whistle and obey the
baton of the leader.
Hubbell and Blair about 18
months ago invested $350.0O in
hogs which they held on their
ranch north of town. Before the
sale they had sold 100000
worth. and at the sale sold
81, 10000 worth. Counting cost
of feed, care and losses they
have left about 100 per cent
profit on the investment.
You have all seen the water
works. Now when wishing to
take an evening stroll, just
change your course and take
look at the fine lawns in the
northwest part of town. Trees
and blue grass as well as flower
ing shrubs combine to make the
walk a pleasant one. While
passing along just note the vari-
cites, and plan some planting on
your own lawn. The abundant
supply of water now in Meade
makes the beautifying of a lawn
comparatively easy of accom-
plishment.

The School Meeting

turnout TO the SCnOOl meeting
Friday, but the persons presen
were very much in earnest ant
jealous in directing the affairs
of the district. This was par
ticularly true of the high school
which has not yet gotten out or
the track lined out by the state
school authorities,
By request the presiding of
ficer James Wilson, Rev. Baker
offered prayer and the meeting
was declared open for the trans
action of business, Secretary
and treasurer each submitted
their annual reports which were
accepted as presented, and on
motion the chair named A. r.
Bodle Jr y, Mrs. F. w. Flick and
Mrs. E. w. White as an auditing
committee to audit the treasures
accounts. A motion to continue
with a nine months school EN-.
ploying SIX teachers and con-
tinuing the four year high school
course prevailed. The board
announced their determination
to have a board of examiners
from outside the district grade
the pupils by examination at
the close of the present term.
This grade however was not to
be final, but subject to revision
from time to time by the
principal employed the COM
ing year. The assessment not
being completed levy could not
be made, and in the alternative
the gross amount of $5,O0O.00
for school purposes was voted.
A motion to reject James Wilson
as director was carried by a
rising vote, At suggestion of
attorney A. II. Bodle Jr. this
was reconsidered and ballot taxi
en-. Mr.. Wilson was nominated
and no one put in opposition, the
count of ballots showed that Mr.
Wilson had been elected with
one dissenting vote. The lone
ballot being for H. L. Jones. A
committe was named to confer
with the city authorities in ref
erence to the water supply. AS
at present situated, the main
ends at the school house and
there are four blocks length of
it dead water. This committe
has the duty of trying to per-
suade the city to lay main
south from the school house to
connect with the main on Garth
age avenue which leads to the
big tank, thus insuring a circu-
lation in the pipe passing the
school house. A motion prevail
ed directing the school board to
obtain plans and estimates for a
system of steam or hot water
heating for the school building.
Motion to adjourn then pre-
vailed.

Those New Uniforms.

Saturday Won Prosky's band
was out for the first time with
their new uniforms, which are
fine, and become the boys well.
They presented splendid ap.
pearance when marching down
street playing.
We overheard strangers re-
mark more than once, that it is
a fine band. Neither Hutchin-
son nor Wichita can beat it. The
fact is that the band renders
some fine music, the leader is
among the finest of instructors,
with an European education, and
service in the military of two
continents and of three govern
ments. The members of the
band are each one alive to the op-
portunity for instruction w hich
they enjoy under Prof. Won
Prosky by the liberalitv of the
merchants of Meade. The city
and county are justly proud of
Won Prosky's band.

We went out to the Hubbell

attendance was not very large
but things sold at good prices.
The horses being the slowest
sale. The ladies' of the Metho-
dist aid society severed an ex-
cellent lunch. There were per-
sons there from all parts of the
country and from southeast
Gray county. Allen Miller
bought bunch of smooth steers
and mare for which he had a
mate. One milk COW sold for
10000. Altogether the stuff
brought satisfactory prices. Mr..
Stamper is good salesman al
ways crowding the work aloug
and rarely having to dwell long
on any article.

Governor of Kansas.

Justice is getting quicker of
foot than formerly. Modern
means of instantaneous COM
munication make the apprehen-
sion of criminals easier, and
quicker than in the past. The
actors in the bank robbery at
Ford City, few weeks ago are
realizing the fact. The leader
in the crime after fleeing before
the officers over four states, and
receiving a shot in the foot
when escaping on one occasion,
was arrested week before last
in Wichita, walking on crutches.
The owner of the auto in which
the raiders made the trip to
Ford, probably knew more than
the actual criminals cared to
have known, at least, while in
Kansas City recently he died
suddenly.

A card to George DeCow from
his brother Frank at Bartlette,
Kansas, says that he recently
bought for 1915 per hundred
car of fat hogs which he ship
ped to Kansas City, where he
sold them for S1O.72H. That is
about as high as the Kansas hog
has climbe up the prosperity

G. l.. Glen mems of south GRAY
county has moved into the house
west of Captain Jenkins resi-
dence and will make Meade his
future home. Mr.. Clemmens
had farm just over the line in
Gray county where he had lived
for years, and when he reached
the age where he wished to re-
tire he followed the usual GUS
tom of this part of the state and
came to Meade to enjoy life at
leisure.
The Liberal News and Globe
still continue popping away at
each other by abusing the differ
ent towns. Last week the News
suggested to Frank. that Meade
needed most tomb s o n E..
That certainly smooths the hair
the wrong way on the Globe,
and is poor use of space. The
Globe had better fill it with tell
ing the world of the good things
Meade has to offer, and Millman
if he has any spare time can use
it to good advantage carrying
water to keep his barrels FULL
thus doing his part in keeping
up the fire department of Llber-
al. First thing he knows there
will come the usual weekly fire,
and it will be in his end of town,
and he won't have any more
print shop than rabbit, after it
is over. However it is none of
our concern, and as it seems to
amuse the boys, and does not
harm any one else they may as
well keep it up.
