QUINcYs GRANITE GROWTH.

Statistics concerning the granite in
dustry in Quincy, Mass, show that the
business there is making some progress,
basing Judgment on the number of men
employed. Secretary-treasurer James
Duncan of the international union Of
granite cutters has furnished the Quincy
Ledger with a table of granite cutters
employed for the several months of the
year 1910, which shows an average OF
l,l2l men employed, exclusive Of APP.
prentices, tool sharpeners and polishers
For the preceding year, the average was
1000 and for the year 1905 the average
was only GA. Therefore, it can be seen
that some progress is being made in
Quincy, sufficient, at least, to cause
feeling OF optimism to come over the
contemporary to the extent that it de-
clares there are 1000 men employed in
the entire industry. Nevertheless, Quin-
cy is considerably behind Barre in the
number of men employed, since there
were in the vicinity Of LOO cutters EN-.
ployed in the granite industry here, with
the employees in the allied branches
maintaining about the average OF the
craft in Quincy probably.
As for the quarrying end Of the two
industries. the dispuoportion between
Barre and Quincy is, quite likely, much
greater, as the Barre quarries ship out
vast amount of rough stock to other
places to be cut into monuments. Ran
dom statements by those who are per-
haps in the best positions to know are
TO the effect that if every bit Of Barre
granite were to be cut in Barre the man.

Increased at least one-half; and that
would mean seven hundred or eight hum
dred more granite cutters alone in

MOST CERTAIN way:
TO END A BAD COLD

It is a positive fact that a dose of
Pape's Cold Compound taken every
two hours until three consecutive
doses are taken will cure Grippe or
break up the most severe cold, either
In the head, chest, back, stomach or
limbs.
You distinctly feel the cold break
ing and all the disagreeable grippe
symptoms leaving after the very first
dose. 1t promptly ends the most mis-
cradle headache, dullness. head and
nose stuffed up, feverishness, sneez-
ing, sore throat, running of the nose,
mucous catarrhal discharges, sore
ness, stiffness and rheumatic twinges.
Pape's Cold Compound is the result
of three years research at a cost of
more than fifty thousand dollars and
contains no quinine, which we have
conclusively demonstrated is not eff.
fective in the treatment Of colds or
grippe.
Take this harmless Compound as
directed, with the knowledge that
there is no other medicine made any
where else in the world, which will
cure your cold or end Grippe misery
as promptly and without any other as
sistance or bad after effects as a 25-
cent package Of Pape's Cold Com
pound, which any druggist in the
world can supply.

TERESTED IN MUNICIPAL
IMPROVEMENTS
CURLING, Parking, 8ouIevarding and
Widening Of Sidewalks Being Car
ried Out III His Home Town.

Hon. ]. w. Jackson, mayor of Will
liston, is spending few days in the
city looking into municipal develop
ments here in connection with pro.
posed improvements at Williston.
Mr.. Jackson is greatly impressed
with the growth and development in
Bismarck during the past few years,
especially the substantial character
and large number of the business
houses and the residence. The orna.
mental stl<et lighting system now be-
ing installed is of especial interest, rs
it is planned to install similar one
at Williston. The system here is
looked upon as model and Wi!liston
and other cities in the state will ad-
here very closely to it in their install:
lation.
In asking what was being done in
Williston with reference to street I'M
provement and parking, Mr.. Jackson
stated that Williston is just complet
ing curling, grading and parking three
of it's principal avenues, being the
first city in the state to take advan-
tage of the law passed passed by the
last legislature authorizing such i'm
provements through special assess
ment The progress of the parking
was watched with keen interest by
the people of the City of Opportunity,
and before the first block was CON-
pleted other districts of the town
requesting that it be extended at once
1t being too lete to take up additional
work this winter, il was requested thtt
be done as early as possible in the
