sing the project Of erecting

committee was named several
months ago TO investigate the
matter. The report given by the
committee was rather unfavor~
able, as it requires a large
amount Of capital. 1t would
practically have to be financed by
country newspapers Of the state
as some Of the big dailies own
their own mills and others have
signed up large contracts with
mills. Inasmuch as it would be
difficult to get enough stock sub
scribed the plan was not con-
sidered feasible and no result
was gained. So we will continue
to pay according to the dictates
Of the paper manufacturers.

WINTER AND SPRING TONIC

Winter is a hard season for those who
have no stored up reserve OF strength.
The coming OF trying spring weather
means sickness for many because de-
bility robs the system of its power to
protect itself.
One person may suffer exposure to
cold and wet without any i'll effects
while another whose blood is thin and
whose nerves are rundown will be con-
fined to bed after sitting in a draught.
Keeping the blood built up is the
secret of keeping well in winter and
spring. DIR. Williams Pink Pills for
Pale People are the best and most con-
yenient tonic for the blood. Put up
with complete directions for use they
are a family remedy that can be de-
pended upon in conditions Of thin
blood, debility and many common
forms of weakness.
The blood goes to practically every
part of the body and ii it is rich and
red it carries health and strength to
every organ. The digestion is toned
IN, the nerves are strengthened and
aching muscles are made strong. DIR.
williams Pink Pills are especially USE
full to rundown women who worry
about their daily tasks and duties.
A few weeks treatment has in hum
drels of such cases brought the most
remarkable improvement.
