WHAT CATARRH IS

1t has been said that every third
person has catarrh in some form.
Science has shown that nasal catarrh
often indicates a general weakness
Of the body; and local treatments in
the form Of snufs and vapors do little,
if any good.
To correct catarrh you should treat Its
cause by enriching your blood with the
oil-food in Scott's Emulsion which is a
medicinal food and building-tonic, free
fromalcohol or any harmfuldrugs. Tryit.

spoken ana nc Isl the Will OF the
people Of Pine County that no
saloons shall be tolerated within
her boarders so let us forget our
difference of opinion and abide
by the decision of the majority
as the abolition of the saloon
means reform, progress and adj
vancement. It takes away one
|of the greatest existent tempta-
tons from the boys and young
men Of our land. There is no
question but what there are
many men who thought they
were right. by some form or an
other of reasoning, in supporting
the saloon but we feel sure that
as time goes on that history will
repeat itself and that in three
years hence the large dry major
|ity, as result of the election Mon
day, will be even larger three
years from now as it is signifi-
cant fact that where saloons have
been closed for some time more
people than ever vote in favor
of the dry side and no saloon.
There is no question but what
any number of voters will see
that they have been in the wrong
and that any community is better
off from every standpoint with
out the dram shop. 50 let us for
get the past campaign and let us
unite and put our shoulder to the
wheel and work for bigger and
better Bruno, more settlers, more
development and a he althier and
happier Pine County.

A big temperance program was
rendered at the Presbyterian

main feature was the singing of
the County Option Song by fifty

Readings and recitations were

the community and a most inn
pressive and patriotic service was
held. The Catholic Ladies Aid
served ice cream and cake in the

ers, according to positive statement
made by the Sofa correspondent OF

Bulgaria that part OF Macedonia given
to her by the serbo- Bulgarian treaty
Of 1912, with the right Of immediate
occupation. The controversy over the
part Of Macedonia contested by Serbia
and the cause of the second Balkan
war will be settled after the present
war ends.
Proportionate compensation Is to be
given to Serbia, including the city OF
Kavala with the districts Of Kavala
and Seres. with the right Of immedi-
ate occupation.
Bulgaria, on her side, renounces for
ever pretensions to Saloniki, Vodina
and Uskub. She promises also to de-
clare war Immediately on Turkey

TURKS HOLD BACK
FRESH SOLDIERS
SITUATION A1sTHE EDARDANElLES
UNCHANGED BY THE LAND
ING or 1RIToNs.

Paris, Aug. 20.-The French war
office gave out report on the situation
in the Dardanelles today which reads:
"In the southern zone there Is moth.
ing to report, with the exception OF en-
gagements between patrols and artil-
lery exchanges. In the northern zone
the British left wing has made some
progress in the plain Of Anafarta."
The landing OF British troops at Suv-
la bay, Gallipoli peninsula, Is regarded
as partial disappointment, The Turks
had concentrated their forces In the
Anzaczzone, little to the south, but
were able to send troops north in time
to prevent any important advance by
the landing forces. 1t is believed here
that no forward movement of conse-
quence is likely unless the British are
reinforced considerably.
Italy and Turkey appear to be on
the brink OF an open rupture. The
Italian public expects war, which would
give their army and navy an opportuD.
ity to cooperate with the allies IN the
Dardanelles movement.
On the western front the French
now hold the cross roads between Lens
and Arras, which when in possession
OF the Germans formed a wedge in the
allied line.
