MORE MEN THAN WOMEN
HAVE APPENDICITIS

Surgeons state men are slightly
more subject to appendicitis than
women. Coulee City people should
know that a few doses Of simple
buckthorn bark, gylcerine, eac., as
mixed in Adler-i-ka, often relieve or
prevent appendicitis. This mixture
removes such surprising foul matter
that ONE SPOONFUL relieves almost
ANY CASE constipation, sour stom-
ach, or gas. The INSTANT, easy act
ion Of Adler-i-ka is surprising. G. B.

COUNCIL HOLDS 4 MEETING.

fContinued from page one)
 tho year there had been constructed 925 feet of permanent street, 52s feet of plank street, 250s feet of pcii anent sewer-the only sewer aast has ever been laid to extrems low tide and buried to sufficient depth to guarantee protection to the line. The New Town float has seen rebuilt and many other smaller sanrsvemeRts made during sr same Esliod.
 in improving the streets the toan- s;l has deviated from the former
 GSiom of blasting away rocks and ssien planking them over It has wherever possible. made the street out of the rock itself. which insuies permanency, and where rock has been used for the streets it has been done at less cost than the same could have been done with lumber.
 A systematiEed plan for the COL ieotlon of delinquent taxes each year s.as been inaugurated which will result in several hudndred. dollars being collected that has heretofore been lost to the city, no special or proper effort having been made to ,'ciiect the same.
 Cliff Avenue was not overi .Iksd in the discussion which developo | condition not heretofore apparent " understood by many people and which puts an entirely different light on the subject from what one frequently hears on the street. The council ayers that for several months it has been ready and willing to proceed with the construction of JlIff Avenue whenever sufficient number owners ofproperty abutting on said Avenue presented a petition to the council asking for said im- provement. Such a petition has never been presented, and under the rule adopted by the council, which IS authorized by law, the work eouid not go forward. until such a request was made in writing by the ploperty owners. Thus, instaai Of 1T, council, it was the prop ,rty owners themselves who have caused .he delay.
 The council adjourned at 1l:a0.
 The mayor expressed the hope. which was aequiesed in by the other councilmen, that the policies of the present council should be continued, and directed particular at tention to the growth necessity for increased school facilities and bet torment of those We already have. To accomplish this the most rigid economy possible, under the con- ditions, must be continued to the end that funds may be available when needed for additional school equipment and buildings, and this at no distant day.
