quire Only Preventive
Measures, Yet They
Catch Thousands
Every Winter

You can prevent colds easier than
YOU can cure them, by keeping the
system in q healthy condition. with
good blood flowing in the veins.
Where there is no reserve strength,
as in frail children and anaemic girls
and women, or thin blood and low
vitality, as in the aged, tonic is
needed to replenish the system and
to ward off colds and coughs.
Jacobs Wine Cod Liver Extract
is a pleasant tonic. The Disagree
able oils and fats have been elimi-
mated. and it will not upset a sensi-
tive stomach-instead it stimulates
digestion and increases the appe-
tite. 1t combines with the liver ex-
tractives wild cherry extract, syrup
of hypophosphites, aromatiCs and
port wine. and even children like it
because OF its agreeable taste.
TO build up the strength quickly,
to make rich blood. as a reconstruc-
tive after grippe, fevers, pneumonia,
etc, and to prevent frequent coughs
and colds, it is superior to all SINH
lar preparations. We know this and

It is stated that while they will take a friendly attitude to- ward the new building. they will claim $75,000 ought to De appropriated and take this measure to kill the project. Leading citizens are a unit in believing that a handsome substantial and ade- quate new building can be erected and equipped within the $60,000 aprropri- ation under the supervision of the building committee appointed. They are organizing to get every vote out at the special town meeting next Sat urday which will insure a ratification of the vote that was overwhelmingly passed at the last town meeting. Git izens say that if an additional appro- priation should be necessary to com plete the building another special town meeting could be called to vote it.

LADIES' AUXILIARY ENTERTAINs.
Large Audience Delighted with Play
 Presented on St. Patriok's Night

i One word great expresses the ap- fproyal of large audiences who enjoyed
 and laughed at the amusing dramatic production Just for Fun. at Loomer 1 Opera house, St. Patricks afternoon
 and evening, given by the Ladies'
 auxiliary of the A. o. H. So well did
 the local amateurs acquit themselves i in every instance that it was difficult to discover where the dividing line separated their dramatic ability from professional standards. The pot and situations were funny in the extreme. tThe piece was well staged and all the gowns were stunning, a veritable style show, the stately presence and elab- crate gowns worn by Miss AgEteS i O'Nefll being a notable feature of the costuming of the play. In act one the audience learns how. for reasons of her own. Miss Morton persuades her friend, Miss West, to change places with her, and Lord Chelsea, and MT. Earl decide to borrow each cther's
 name and position for a month. In act two, one week later, Miss West
 plays eaVesdropper. MT. Earl learns
 a great secret, and Jane makes rev
 elation to Mrs. de Smythe Act three,
 two weeks later, the complications are
 all straightened out to the satisfaction
 of all concerned. Specialties were in
 troduced during the action of the
 play Miss Agnes O'Neill rendered
