The game with the Nelson-Dewey
school of Superior was played at the
Opera House last Friday evening and
was easily won by Washburn, the

have a ghost of show in the contest,
but nevertheless they played hard at
keep down . the score. Roberts of
the Superior team made the only
field basket for his team, the other
four points being made by Morris on
free throws.

balance of the points were made on
free throws.

High School second team defeated
the Bayfield, end team by a score of

for Washburn had very little opposi-
ton.
On Monday night the High School
LIST team won the city championship
when they took the city team into
camp with IL to IL score. This
was good game and was witnessed
by large number of persons.

On account of the poor heating the
Haskell Club, who have the lease for
the two upper floors of the building,
have complained to the council and
for two months refused to pay their
rent on the ground that their lease
with the city called for the heating
of the two upper floors.
1t was due to this complaint that
resolution was passed at the Feb :,
4th meeting of the council instruct
ing the city attorney to begin pro-
ceedings to regain possession of the
building. This case is yet to come
up but we are afraid that the council
members will find that the, Bayfield,
County Bank has been<living up the
terms of their lease but the fault is
with the lease. The lease does not
call for janitor services but instead
stead calls for man to look after
the heating plant, which the. bank
has furnished. al
In order to fit up the 10 wer room
in the building for council chambers
over $500, 90 has been expended, al
most two years rent of the room
leased. In addition to this more
money has been expended for fuel
and 500 has been paid out for Office
rent. A saving has been made on
the light and telephone bills. But
the city today is without an Office.

GOOD ROADS
CONFERENCE
Held at Superior Last Fri
day.
Bayfield,, Ashland and Doug
las County People Talk
of Good Roads.

A meeting of representatives
from Bayfield,, Ashland and
Douglas counties was held at
Superior last Friday. the pur-
pose of the meeting being to dis
cuss the subject OF good roads
and especially a road connecting
Superior with the cities and
towns on Chequam egon Bay.
State Highway Engineer A.
R. Hirst of Madison was pres.
ent at the meeting and has been
asked to make a PRELIMINARY sur.
vey of the proposed route that
would connect these cities and a
committee was also appointed to
go further into the proposition.
Several routes were discussed
for the proposed road, the one
running along the lake shore and
the other straight east from
Itasca. The latter, seemed to be
the most likely on account of the
large mum Der of ravines that
would have to be crossed if the
road was built along the lake
shore.

cheeks become hollow when the tooth
support is removed; the pretty facial
curve is lost, and a smile becomes i'm
possible.
Now the first rule to follow in caring
for your teeth is to have them ex-
amined by reliable dentist every six
months. Whatever sacrifice of luxury
this means, you should still adhere to
this rule. A tiny cavity can be filled
painlesSly and cheaply-and a filling
in time saves the tooth So consult
your dentist regularly and save big
cavities in teeth and pocketbook.
A NECESSARY PROBATION.
Don't fear a toothache that is
brought on by work in the dentists
chair. If visible decay starts attend to
it at once. If no decay is visible or can
be felt with the sensitive tongue tip,
it is still necessary precaution to
visit the dentist twice a year.
Use peroxide to disinfect the mouth
and lips and allow no soreness to per-
sist in either place. Absolute cleanli-
ness in and about the mouth cavity is
as important as is every other sort of
bodily cleanliness.
The teeth must be brushed with
some cleansing and disinfecting pre-
paration every morning and evening.
A simple and effective combination is

crack II tho o1amel allows decay an
entering wedge.
An Overabundance of any one prin-
ciple in the system is inadvisable.
Too much acid or too much alkaline
matter will injure the teeth. The diet
should counterfeit this. If you are a
gourmet and cannot resist the de-
lights of the menu, find out if your
mouth is overacid or over-alkaline.
For the acid mouth, bicarbonate of
soda and water will make a counter
irritant mouth wash. For the alkaline
mouth vinegar has been used with
good results.

Have you the courage TO smile?
l do not ask, Have you the DISPOSE
ton to smile?''-for every woman has
the disposition to smile.
Every woman has the knowledge
that smile radiates light over her
whole face.
And every woman smiles if only she
has good teeth to give her the cour-
age to smile and show them.
Even, white, well-cared for teeth.
They add charm to a charming face
They even make you forget irregular
ity of feature and flaws in coloring.
Come, madame, confess, have you
given your teeth the care they de-
serve? And mademoiselle, be warned
before it is too late. Your teeth are
one of your great beauty assets.
But they are perishable, they are
easily flawed, and they will repay you
measure for measure for either neg
lect or care.
Do you know one reason why the
peasant women and the middle-class

have sparkling girlish faces lit by
smiles and flashing teeth.

FIVE MINUTE CURE
IF STOMACH IS BAD
"Pape's Diapepsin" is Quick
est, Surest Indigestion
Cure Known.

You don't want slow remedy when
your stomach is bad--or an uncertain
one-or harmful one-your stomach
is too valuable; you mustn't injure it
with drastic drugs.
Pape's Diapepsin is noted for it's
speed in giving relief: it's harmless
ness; its certain unfailing action in
regulating sick, sour, gassy stomachs.
Its million of cures in indigestion,
dyspepsia, gastritis and other stomach
trouble has made it famous the world
over.
Keep this perfect stomach doctor in
your home-keep it handy-get large
fifty-cent case from any drug store
and then if anyone should eat some
thing which doesn't agree with them :;
If what they eat lays like lead, fer
ments and sours and forms gas; caus-
es headache, dizziness and nausea !:
eructations of acid and undigested
food-remember as soon as Pape's
Diapepsin comes in contact with the
stomach all such distress vanishes. Its
promptness, certainty and ease in over
coming the worst stomach disorders
Is n revelation to those who try it.
