day confirmed Mr.. Brandeis's nomi-

Brandeis succeeds the late Joseph

Democrat, Senator Newlands. voted
against confirmation. Three Repub-

NOTE: Folks in town and adjoining
counties are delighted with the results
they have obtained by using" 4 NURIC,"
the newest discovery of DR.. Pierce, who
is head of the INVALIDs' HOTEL and
SURGICAL INSTITUTE, in Buffalo, n. Y.
Those who started the day with back
ache, stiff legs, arms and muscles, and
an aching head (worn out before the
day began because they were in and out
of bed half dozen times at night are
approaching the perfect rest, comfort
and new strength they obtained from
Dr.. Pierce's Anuric Tablets. To prove
that this is a certain uric acid solvent
and conquers headache, kidney and
bladder diseases and rheumatism, if
you We never used the "Anuric," cut
this out and send ten cents to Doctor
Pierce for a large sample package. This
will prove to you that "Anuric" IS
thirty seven times more active than
lithia in eliminating uric acid-and the
most perfect kidney and bladder cor
rector. If you are sufferer, go to your
best druggist and ask for 5O-cent box
os " Anuric." You run no risk for DR..
Pierce's good name stands behind this
wonderful new discovery as it has for
the past half century for his vGolden
Medical Discovery" a general tonic
made from roots with pure glycenne
which makes the blood pure, his "Fa-
vorite Prescription for weak women
and pheasant Pellets" for liver ills.

The Sauk Centre herald. (Sauk Centre, Stearns County, Minn.) 1886-current, 1916-06-22

has determined and does hereby de-
termine, that it is for the best inter-
ests of the City of Sank Centre and
the inhabitants thereof, and that that
it is necessary to acquire an electric
light and power plant by purchase or
condemnation, and to improve and ex-
tend such plant or to construct and es-
tablish a municipal electric light and

tire.

termined, and does hereby determine

of said City of Sank Centre in the
amount of Fifty Thousand ($5O,O00)

sion may require, to accomplish said
purpose.

proposition of issuing bonds as afore-
said to be submitted to the electors of
said City of Sank Centre, said Com
mon Council does hereby resolve and
order that a special election be called
and held in said City on Thursday, the
10Th day of June, 1916, in accordance
