GOOD PLACES
UNCANVASSED

OWING TO LACK OF TIME.
Owing to the fact that the matter
and illustrations for The Republicans
Industrial Edition have already exceeded
the original scope of the enterprise, 1t
was found to be impracticable to reach
and properly cover by illustrations and
sketch all the towns in Ohio county
without delaying the edition at least
month and adding another section.
Therefore 1t was necessary TO close the
edition, and the towns and institutions
which were not reached will have to
be unavoidably omitted. However 1t is
a great pleasure to note that the sup
port from the places canvassed reached
such an extent that II occupies all the
space with several good towns uncan-
vassed. 1t shows that the business men
of every section OF the county are wide
awake and alert to the importance of
presenting the combined resources OF
Ohio county to the great investing world.
If time had permitted for a canvass of
the other places another section Of eight
pages could have easily been filled with
excellent representations OF the varied

An establishment Of this magnitude
means much to a place like Dundee for
it brings to the place numbers Of pur-

eft from them. The business methods
of the company are of the kind that
inspires confidence, and this in connec-
tion with the quality of goods handled
is the reason in a great measure for
the large patronage enjoyed by the Dun

Tell Your Druggist

that you want Sirolin ; that
nothing =" just as good -
will do.
Sirolin is entirely different
from any other preparation
for colds and other pull
monary affections.
1t acts in a different way,
BY its action the cold is
eliminated by increasing the
resisting power of the lungs
and air-passages. 1t is es-
sentially a builder-up, q
tonic, a restorative.
lteffectually prevents colds
by the same process. Keep
a bottle of SiroIin in the
house and take it as q
preventive during the win
ter, and especially during
cold and rainy spells.
You will find that you
have missed your regular
winter cold; that you feel
well all the time.
