EBy- Lateet,i Maill

SALIVA, Kas. - A new method of
compelling a father to send his boy

Brann, 9 years old, was held on a
charge of truancy and incorrigibility.
The father of the boy, Floyd Brann,
was fined $40. Sentence was suspend

attends school 10 cents will be de-
Quoted from the amount of the fine,
and for every day of inexcusable alb
sence from school, 20 cents will be
added to the amount.

MRS. JOSEPH SNYDER,
262 Hudson St. Tifiin, Ohio.
Many remedies are recommended
for diseases of the system
that fail to produce results because
they do not reach the seat of the
trouble. DR.. Miles Nervine has
proven its value in such cases so
many times that it is unnecessary
to make claims for it. You can
prove its merits for yourself by
getting a bottle of your druggist,
who will return the price if you
receive no benefit, .
