Preparing For
Village Election
Trustees Take Preliminary Steps.----Dray
License Ordinance.

The board of village trustees
met Monday night and took pre-
liminary steps toward preparing
for the bienniel municipal election
to be held the first Tuesday in
April, by instructing the clerk to
procure the necessary supplies
and open the registration books.
The law of 1913 requires that the
registration books be closed thirty
days prior to the municipal cleo
ton the same as prior to county
and general elections. The books
will therefore be open during
February. The law also provides
that the clerk shall serve as regis
trar without compensation other
than his regular salary. Electors
who voted at the village election
two years ago need not register
again for the election next April.
The board passed Ordinance No.
So on its first reading. 1t provides
for licensing drays: one horse, $40
per annum; two horse, SIS. c.
E. Shero, drayman, was present
and opposed the ordinance on the
ground that it would prevent per-
sons besides draymen from doing
a little dray work for pay when
they had the opportunity. He
said he believed in everybody
being given chance without lei
or hindrance. 1t is intended tha
this ordinance will become effect
i've April I.
Chairman Farnsworth reported
SI431.16 taxes received from th'
county treasurer, and all outstand
ing village warrants called, leaving
a balance of about $4oo in tn
treasury. 1t is estimated ther
are about 5000 more in taxes to b
received.
The clerk was instructed t
ascertain the sum necessary

HEALTH TALKS.
(By DR.. r. r, Daniels.)

10 his latest interview Edison de-
clares that the most important
conclusion to which be has come dur
ing his years of hard and constant
efforts Is that everybody eats too
much and sleeps too much, that
about all of the worlds disease and
good part Of its poverty Is due to
overeating. The wizard cites his
own case In his contention about the
increase OF food; he cats not TO exceed
five ounces of food day, including
the water In the food; this Is about
one fourth of the amount consumed
by the average person.
Taking 1t the world over, foodstuffs
were never as high, aud they were
, never as scarce as at the present time.
Because OF the large amount OF food
which the average family consumes.
the workingman must spend a good
part of his wages for food alone.
Thus one solution of the high cost Of
/ living is to eat less; to cut out the
surplus and eat only what the body
actually needs.
There is no question but what
overeating causes either directly or
indirectly good part Of all Of our
diseases. Thus the loss TO the nation
through the cost of the excess food Is
the smallest part OF the loss through
overeatlng; the loss In early deaths
from food-induced diseases, the loss
In Illness of various kinds due 10
overeatlng, and, greatest Of all, the
loss through inefiiclency from the
poor digestion and pour nutrition
which so often results from overeat-
ing; all Of these losses must be taken
: into consideration In order TO get at
) the gigantic loss that comes to the
r United States every day through
, eating too much.
S The more we eat the more sleep VIC
v need Thus oyereatlng causes ire
n mendous loss Of time by making
necessary an increased amount o.
sleep.

thing is fact, and that is general
public feeling in this city that the
taxpayers have made the county a

and it is therefor the duty of the
CITY officials to make the first move.
