How to Have the Best Cough
Syrup and Save g, by
Making 1t at Home.

Cough medicines, as rule, contain
large quantity of plain syrup. If you
take one pint of granulated sugar, add
2 minutes. you have as good syrup as
money could buy.
If you will then put 21a ounces of
Pinex $50 cents WORTH in a pint bottle,
and fill it up with the Sugar Syrup, you
could buy. ready made for $3.50. 1t
keeps perfectly.
syrup you ever used-even in whooping
cough. You can feel it take hold-usu-
ally stops the most severe cough in "a
hours. 1t is Just laxative enough, has q
good tonic effect, and taste is pleasant.
Take teaspoonful every one, two or
three hours.
It is a splendid remedy, too, for
whooping cough, Group, hoarseness, asth-
ma, chest pains, etc.
Pinex is the most valuable concentra-
| ted compound of Norway white pine ex-
tract, rich in guaiacol and all the heal
ing pine elements. No other prepare
ton will work in this formula.
| This recipe for making cough remedy
| with Pinex and Sugar Syrup is now
used and priced in thousands of homes
/ In the United States and Canada. The
! plan has often been initiated but never
successfully.
A guaranty of absolute satisfaction, or
money promptly refunded, goes with this
recipe. Your druggist has Pinex, or will
| get it for Won. If not, send to The
Pinex Co., Ft. Wayne, Ind.

SUCCESS OF IL TRovAToRE.
Why the Opera Has Retained its Popu-
larity for so Long.

1dILby IOI SO LIVING
So much has been said about the
wonderful success of Joseph f. Shee-
han in his venture of discarding roper
toire and devoting all his energies to-
ward making one production and SO
thoroughly has the soundness of his
idea been proven during the past few
years that it might perhaps be interest
ing to say something about the opera
III Trovatore which was chosen for this
experiment.
For an opera to retain its popularity
for over so years and at the end of that
time to be stronger than ever means
that it must be out of the ordinary and
above statement is absolutely true as
pertaining to II Trovatore. While Verdi
may have written more pretentious
works, no other opera of this gifted
composer or for that matter from any
other composer has ever struck the
public fancy as has his stirring compost
tion of melodies set to the dramatic
story of The Troubadour.
From the very opening bars of Fer
rando S recitation of how the old gypsy

Luna to the very last note in the prison

Raising Fur-Bearing Animals.

Evervett Clark, who lives near the Sa-
bin bridge beyond Gageville, has started
a new industry, that of raising fur
bearing animals, and has a fine location
for the purpose. He has procured a
small stock of male and female skunks,
coons, rabbits and goats, and expects
to add a number of other varieties, in
Guiding foxes. At the present time the
skins of number of the common an
imals are bringing unusually high
prices in the market and the industry
promises to be remunerative. Mr.. Clark
formerly lived in Grafton.

FIGHTING FOR THEIR RIGHTS
DeSoto People Protest Against Ac-
ton of Railroad

Edward Wig and CENSOR editor were
present at the hearing conducted under
authority of the state railroad commits
sion at OeSoto last Thursday. The
village people, with just cause, COM
plain that the railroad company in con-
struction of their new track are not
treating them with the same consider
alton accorded Genoa and other villages
similarly situated, in that they cut off
their river front, locate their depot in
an inaccessible place, whereas they
might place it at a more convenient
spot. Greatest complaint lies in the
fact that stretch of river front is so
damned up that stagnant pools of
water and impure and unsightly vege-
tation is to forever confront them in
stead of pleasant water view as in
the past. A number of witnesses gave
testimony and the case was conducted
by j. Henry Bennett on part of the viii
layers and Attorney Lees for the Bur-
lington company. Having looked the
situation over and heard evidence the
law features will be submitted to the
railroad commission in briefs on either
side. Certainly De Soto people are
making brave and determined fight
against what they believe to be a great
injustice and imposition.

Changes In Came Laws

Some changes of Importance to Yer
non county sportsmen have recently
been enacted by the legislature. Pro-
badly the most gratifying is the earlier
opening of squirrel season September
10th to February LIST. The open season
for muskrats is also one month earlier
October Is to April 10th.
The trout law remains the same as
in the past, but river fishing was sub
iected to more stringent regulation.
Formerly no limit was made on the
number of hooks on set lines now
only twenty-five are permitted, and no
live bait of any character can be used.
However, all fish caught on set lines
may now be retained, except cat fish
under Is inches long in the rough or IL
inches dressed.

among those who have not enlisted in
the cause do not delay. Every citizen
should feel just pride in our best of

HAVE A MINIMUM WAGE SCALE
Districts Can Not Employ Teachers
for Less Than $40 per Month

Wisconsin is becoming so paternalis-
tic, if not socialistic, that the average
citizen will soon be unable to determine
Just what hour is best for him to retire
and arise, how often he may eat or
drink, bow he may part bis hair and
many other things that ought to be of
personal choice. Four years ago the
legislature pensioned teachers, much
against the will and better judgment
of good per cent. of those actively
engaged in the work. Now minimum
wage scale has been established and
districts have no choice except to pay
the price, whether the teacher is able
to earn the money or not. When asked
what he thought of the law Superin-
ten1ent Gardner expressed himself as
not particularly favorable, stating that
teachers usually commanded and re-
ceived what they were capable of earn
ing. His greatest objection is that
in measure it might remove the in
centive to become proficient on part Of
teachers. Mr.. Gardner stated that in
the country districts the average salary
is between $36 and $37 per month, some
receiving as high as $50 When he be-
came superintendent fourteen years
ago the average was $23 Previous to
that he had known of instances where
teachers had received only S14.

atty for failure to comply with its pro-
visions on part of districts is a forfeit
