MOON ON WATER
WAGON THIS MONTH

! The moon is on the water wagon
this month and remain on throughout
February, says al exchange. 1t won't
get full once in the whole time, though
suspicion is not wanting that it will
weaken in it's resolution toward the end
and come pretty close to it. Saturday,
Jan. 80, was it's last "full' until
March.
February, 1915, will thus be notable
over ordinary Februaries, which must
be content with Ground Hog Day, St.
Valentines Day and the birthdays Of
Lincoln and Washington to make them
distinctive. 1t is only once in long
while that the moon gets dry streak
like this. The almanacs say that it
won't happen again within $500, 600
years and that the last time it happen
ed was in February, 1866.
However, the earth satellite has no
intention of joining the 'Drys" per-
manently. After holding back the
twenty eight-days in the coming
month it will break loose on March l
with its utmost fullness, and, as if to
celebrate its return to its monthly scor-
ing practice, will be full again later in
the same month, on March 80.
1t is explained that the period of the
moons revolution about the earth with
reference to the sun is about 295 days,
80 that when full moon comes the day
before the month of twenty eight days
as this year, the recurrence of fullness
must be delayed beyond the twenty
eigth-day period

When the storm came on Monday,
the first day of this month, twenty
seven telegraph poles between Baraooo
and Madison broke down with the
weight of ice and snow. Fortunately
the Wisconsin Telephone company had
clear sailing to Portage and from that
city to Madison a wire was working.
BY this means the railroad company
was able to talk from the general office
here to the office in Madison, thus d.
reeting the dispatch of trains. The loss

ARE THESE YOUR SYMPTOMS?

Do you find your breath bad in the
morning, bad taste in the mouth, q
coated tongue, a mean feeling in the
head?
Constipation, which these symptoms
denote, is dangerous because it means
that poisonous materials which should
have been expelled from the body are
being retained. It is a condition which,
if not corrected, becomes chronic.
The remedy is to stimulate the liver by
the use of Pinklets, the gentle laxative
pills that do not grippe or purge but simply
assist nature. Taken regularly for a
time, they really do correct constipation.
Write the DIR. Williams Medicine Co.,
Schenectady, n Y, for free sample or
