Spring.

Spring is looked upon by many as the
most delightful season of the year, but
this cannot be said of the rhematic. The
cold and damp weather brings on rheu-
matte pains which are anything but
pleasant. They can be relieved, however,
by applying Chamberlain Liniment.
Obtainable everywhere.

1t will be seer that three members OF
the retiring board were reelected,
Messrs. Weddle, Etzler and English serv-
ing as Commissioners last year. Messrs.
Long and Damuth are the new members,
the latter defeating Mr.. Clayton Creager
for the position of secretary.
1t is indeed fortunate that three mem.
bers of the old board were reelected.
Matters of especial importance had been
taken up by the retiring board, and now
that majority of these will serve the
town another year the work referred to
will likely be pushed and completed. An
entirely new Board would likely have
failed.
The new Board will, during this week,
be sworn in and organize and get down
to business at once.

virtually Communicated by the ad,i-
sorry committee, which, through Chair
man Willard, can issue to them more
arbitrary orders than President Will
son, under the most drastic law, prob
ably would car to issue. This Is a
voluntary service Of the railroad and
admittedly possibly is intended as IN
answer to some of the railroad criti-
cisms in congress.

phone-Theodore N. Vail, president Of
tAc AilcllC&ul AclcpIlOIt uuu ACiC-
graph company. For the first time in
telephone history regulars and indie
pendents are working side by side for
the good Of the country. More than
10000 miles Of wire have been set
aside for the special use of the army
and the navy and some Of the other
departments. Modern methods for
using the telephone are being intro
duced and new systems installed, one
of which will cover completely the
signal service in the field. Washing

telephone properly and a new central
office with q capacity Of 10000 lines
is being provided.
