the town clerk was Joseph Ripley. The
board of seleetmen was made up of Cha
pin Keith. John Thwing and Smith Sher-
idan. and the postmaster was Walter
Chaffey.

secretary of state, $3.50; state treasurer
$500; secretary of governor and council,
$3.50; clerk of the general assembly, 1915;

constable serving a process was given the
sum of six cents each time he read the
document.

the book, it costing six cents to send
letter 30 miles or less, l0c up to so miles,
and 25c for 400 miles. A newspaper sent

The kidneys have big work

are well, but cold, chill, feaver
or some thoughtless exposure is
likely to irritate. inhame and

rupt the purifying work.
Then the aching frequently
begins, aid is often accompanied
by some irregularity of the urine
too frequent passages, sediment
or retention. Thousands testify
to the wonderful merit of Doan's
Kidney Pills, a remedy for the
kidneys only. that has been used
in kidney troubles 80 years. You
will make no mistake in follow
ing this advice. 1t comes from
a resident of this locality:
Mrs. Sallie Bull, 402 Doncaster
Ave. Middlesboro, KY, says:

spells and backache until the pa
tents health was all run down.

a source of annoyance. Dam 5

Prices Advanced

Owing to an advance on all
grades of paper, running from
60 per cent to more than 200 per
cent between January to April
May l, 1916, we are compelled to
advance our prices on all print
ing sufficiently to take care of
the increased cost Of stock used.
This is all the more necessary,
considering the low prices we
have always charged.
We trust our trade will ap-
preciate the position we are in,
and rest assured they will be
taken care of as well as the mar
ket conditions will permit.

the paper manufacturer common
ly buys for 40c per pound are
now difficult to obtain even at
$4,000 per pound.
Every article that enters into
the production of paper has ad-
vanced in price and is still bound
to advance to even higher prices.
Labor, now feeling the stimulus
of war orders, commands more
than the same grade of labor
could command before the war.
There is no immediate possibil-
ity of a speedy return to normal
prices. With the curtailment of
production of raw materials and
the artificial demand for cellulose
for the production of high explos-
ives, paper must continue to ad-
vance in cost. Even the termina-
ton of hostilities could NOT restore

The World Confronting
a Paper Famine.

Cellulose is the fibrouS matter
that is the basis of all kinds of
paper. This substance is pro-
duced commercially from cotton
and linen rags and from wood
pulp. Millions of tons of cellulose
are required annually to supply
the requirements of the paper
mills of the world.
In normal times sixty per cent

of the sulphite used for the man.
ufacture of paper in the United
States is imported from foreign
countries.
But celluloSe is also the basis
of modern high explosives. The
Dupont Powder Mills have INSTALL
ed an enormous battery of beaters
having a capacity vastly greater
than the capacity of any paper
mill in the United States. They
are paying fabulous prices for
rag stock and commanding the
first choice of rags from all over
the country.
What in normal times would
be the fibrouS texture of fine
papers is now being converted
into ammunition for bomb and
torpedo and howitzer and mach
inc gun.
Germany has conhscated the
entire supply of raw materials
for the manufacture of paper
within the confines Of her en-
pire. Even the wood pulp of
Germany is now being converted
into explosives, sparing only
enough Tor the manufacture OF
such amounts of paper as are abb
solutely essential to domestic re-
quirements.
The government of Germany

IS KEEPING TAB
ON SHIPMENTS
REGISTRATION OF LIQUOR SHIP
MENTS IN CoRDELE HAVE BEEN
VERY LlGHT-STRIcT REGULAR
ITY OBSERVED.

The registration of the names of
those who get alcoholic packages in
the express in Cordele has been going
on in the office of Ordinary Fleming
since May with all the requirements
fulfilled and the business is indeed
small-not half as large as the local
express officials and Ordinary Fleming
had expected.
The law requires that the names of
the eonsignee, consignor, and the guam
tity of the shipment be filed with the
ordinary within three days after it is
received here The filing docket is a
public record and is open for public
inspection. Anyboyd can look at it.
Any officer of the law can call for the
record and the ordinary is required
to furnish it. The sheriff is required
to see that the record of delivery is
filed properly if any person gets more
than his legal allotment, he is subject
to indictment.
Ordinary Fleming has an idea that
the business is going to require a good
amount of work on his part,--and the
thing that hurts most is that there is
no pay for the extra work.

average with ten stops for gasoline and
