FOR DANCING SALON

The proposition OF making a dance
floor on the Wild Rover on Morton
Lake, was taken up with the Lake and
Park company yesterday by the new
lessees, Strohm Brothers. Members of
the board Of directors approved the
idea. 1t has not been officially de-
c:ded, however.
If the action Of the board is favor
able, the boat will be prepared so it
can be rented out to dancing parties
for an an evening with music by a
saxophone trio. The position of the
seats will be changed and the boiler
will be moved from the center to the
front of the boat. Pipe lines laid
along the floor by Captain Rogers
have been removed, leaving this space
urobstructed.
The Wild Rover is again stuck on
the bottom. In the flood water two or
three days ago when the lake rose
two feet, the boat was carried next to
the south wing Of the dam. where the
water is shallow. The boilers will be
ready for use in a few days and the
boat will be pulled off by it's own
power.

Experience With Milking Machine

| have been using a mechanical
milking machine for three years with
perfect satisfaction. Our mixer can
be run with very low expense. They
do not destroy the cows. They re-
lieve all the suction from the cow is
to so times per minute.
| use four machines two times
day, and milk just as quickly as we
did before with four hand mixers.
That saves me just about one hand the
whole year round AS hand mixers
are very hard to get and harder vet
to keep, the machines save a great
deal of worriment. The machines do
not walk away when you are just
about to make hay or are busiest with
other work. They are easy to oper-
ate and are easy to be installed, and
can be used and operated by small
boys that are able to be about cows.

Farmers Most Prosperous Class

The farmer has enjoyed greater
prosperity than any other individual
in the country. The value of the farm
products has increased to a much
gree 'er extent than the cost of arti-
c!es purchased by the farmer. This is
declared in statement issued by Nat
c. Murray, of the Agricultural De-
partment, which says:
"The purchasing power of the far
mer depends not only on the money
value of what he produces, but also
upon the money value of what he
buys. From 1899 to 1909 the money
value of an acre of the farmers crops
increased 72.7 per cent, but in the
same period the money value of the
articles usually purchased by farm
ers had increased 121 per cent; con-
sequently as result of the greater
increase in the price of what farmer
sold than in the price of what he
bought the net increase in the pur-
chasing power of the produce of an
acre was Sd per cent-that is, one
acre of the farmers crop in 1909
could buy Sd per cent. more of the
articles usually bought by farmers
than in 1899.
I'm 1913 the value of an acre of the
farmers crops averaged about IL per
cent. higher than in 1909, whereas the
value OF articles bought by farmers
mad advanced in the same time about
o. per cent; consequently as a re-
suit of the greater increase in the
price of what the farmer buys than
what he sells the actual purchasing
power of one acre of the farmers pro-
duce in 1915 was about 4.3 per cent.
less than in 1909.
Similar data for 1914 have not vet
been secured, but it may be safely pre-
sumed that the purchasing power of
an acre of the farmers produce in
1914 is at least per cent less than
five years ago. In short, there was
material increase in the purchasing
power of farmers from 1896 to 1909,
but since 1909 there has been a check
TO this rapid increase, with some reac-
ton downward"

Questions For Multitude
REV Nj. ID HALTER

Do | hope to have a home in hea-
ven?
If so, what ground have | for such
hope? Is it true that | am making
any serious effort to secure that
home? Have my sins all been for
given? Am | new creature in Christ
Jesus? Do | know that l have passed
from death unto life? Have l the
witness of Gods Spirit bearing wit
ness with my spirit that l am a child
of God and an heir to glory?
Do | hope to meet my friends and
owed ones there?
If so, do | impress that have any
care for their souls, and am l seek
ing by wore and example to direct
their feet in the way of everlasting
life? If ell were to do as | do, would
they ever be saved from sin and find
home in heaven. would there ever be
in all the W, rld another soul saved?
Would like to live in heather dark
ness without Bibles, Sabbaths and
Churches Christian Song and Prayer?
o., is the Bible anything to me, and
do | reverence Gods Holy Day or
show any interest in the House of the
Lord? Does it not look as though |
want the door of the Church to close
forever? If all We're such as | am,
could place of worship be maintain
ed? Would preachers have anyone,
much or al of the time to hear them
Would Ect Churches and Sabbaths
soon te story of the past? Could
even have a Christian burial for my
self or friends? And why should
want it? If existence hereafter be
only a Joke or fancy as my lie
would indicate, why dignity its be-
ginning with religious worship?
Passing the preacher by in life, why
should demand his services at death
Why not hire a band to play rag time
and rollicking picnic songs and have
my body borne away to the grave in a
Procession of quick-step merry dane
ers?
Ignoring Gods Holy Institutions as
| do, am | in any practical sense sup
erior to the heather of non-christian
lands? With all their darkness and
ignorance is there not more hope for
them in death than for me with all nv
boasted privileges? OH What was
made for? To what end do live? Is
it just to sleep and to wake, to rise
and to eat and to labor as a beast of
burden and then to lie down and die as
the dog dieth?
Or is the Bible true, and is there
not a God and a Judgment Day and
an eternal future of joy or woe, and
must | not bestir myself quickly lest
make my bed in He'll?

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

by local applications, as they cannot reach the
diseased portion of the ear. There is only one
way to cure deafness, and that is by constitu-
tional remedies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed
you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hear
ing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness
is the result, and unless the Inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine out of ten are caused by
Catarrh which is nothing but an infamed con-
dition of the mucous usrfaces
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that can
not be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure. Send for
