derfully, SO the soreness is all gone now
! believe Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound is just the remedy for
female troubles. - Mrs. ELIZABETH
JOHN, R. F. d. No 4, Toledo, Ohio.
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound, made from native roots and
herbs, contains no narcotic or. harmful
drugs, and today is regarded as the
most successful remedy for female ills.
There are thousands of voluntary testi-
monials on file in the Pinkham labora-
tory at Lynn, Mass, to prove this
fact.

enforcing the anti-shipment feature by
suppressing the activities of mail order
houses in dry territory.
Justices and postoffice department of
ficials have made extensive preparations
for enforcement of the statute. United
States marshals and postal inspectors
everywhere have been instructed to be
on the lookout for violations. There are
heavy penalties for violations. Ethyl

alcohol is regarded by the federal govern
ment as an intoxicating liquor within the
meaning of the act, but methyl, wood
and denatured alcohols are not so re-
garded. No ruling has been made re-
garding the status of patent medicines
containing alcohol, and that. question
may be among the first to be passed
on by the courts under the legislation
The language of the anti shipment sec
ton is very comprehensive, imposing a
fine of $1,000 and Imprisonment for six
months, or both, on any person who shall
"order, purchase or cause intoxicating
liquors to be transported in interstate
commerce except for scientific, sacra-
poses, into any state or territory the
laws of which state or territory pro-
hibit the manufacture or sale therein of
intoxicating liquor for beverage pur-
poses" The same penalties are pre-
scribed for violators of the anti-adver-
Using section. For a second offense in
either case the penalty is made one
years imprisonment.
Following are the states wholly affect
ed by the act: Alabama, Arizona Arkan-
sas, Colorado. Georgia, Idaho, Iowa, Kan
sas, Maine, Mississippi, Nebraska, North
Carolina, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Ore
gon, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South
Dakota, Tennessee, Vermont. Virginia,
and West Virginia. Those
partially affected are: California, Con

Minnesota, New Hamp- |

Where the need is worse we
ought to begin building the
sewer" stated J. J. Fribley.
"The people ought to get at 1t at
once. This is a dangerous prop
osition to postpone. The property
owners should come together and
talk things over and reach a
satisfactory conclusion as to what
is the best step to be taken to
safeguard the interest of the city
and its citizens. III do whatever
the majority agrees upon"
IF the town keeps on growing
we have got to have the kind OF
people creditable to the COM
munity," asserted G. E. Rucker.
"As long as our convenienees,
say nothing about our sanitary
condition, are not satisfactory
the kind of people we ought to
have will stay away from here.
II believe that if the State
Board of Health was aware of
the sanitary condition of Baxter
Springs, it would compel the
city to build sewerage. 1t is this
improvement, more than any
other. that is going to help build
the town as it ought to be. The
need is evident, nothing more
need be said"

Not Afraid of Expense-An
See the Necessity of Up
to-Date Public
Utilities,

operators and they all have SAID
that they would move here and
build homes if we had sewers.
All the big property owners are
in favor of it. The fellow that
has few lots is the one who kicks
because of the assumption that a
sewer system will raise his taxes.
He does not realize however,
that sewerage will increase the
value of the property and thus
make up for the increase in
taxes. The big property owners
are heartily in favor of it.
The sewer service is an invest
ment and a necessity" continued
Mr.. Grantham, "just like paint
ing houses or building sidewalks.
It will automatically enhance the
value of property. Sidewalks
cost 44c per running foot and a
sewer will come to Acc for the
same distance.
"The State Board of Health
has been down here investigating
the outlets for sewerage. After
a thorough examination Of every
loop and hole permission was
granted that the sewers might be
run into the river. This will
save $4,000 or $4,000 that a
septic tank would cost. The
same arguments that were raised
against the construction of side
walks are now raised against the
building Of sewers"
"The water problem is the first
trouble with this city," believes
Walter Apple. "The city should
own its water plant if sewer is
going to be built. The water
system should precede the sewers.
The water condition now is all
right so far as it goes, but it is
not sufficient to flush the sewers.
The city should take the present
water works at unreasonable price.
The money paid by the city to a
private concern for water is large
and this could be saved as well
as a satisfactory system establish
ed to meet the growing demands
for water in the city"
1.-THE time has come when we
ought to have a sewer system,
said Jim Goodwin. Baxter
Springs has a great future before
it, provided the people get behinc
it and push. 1t is up to thu
people Of this city to make Il
what it ought to be and it de
serves to be. The sanitary con
ditions of the city are in danger
These facts before US, we canno'
stop to discuss the cost in money
Whenever / talk to outsider
they criticise us every chanc,
they get. Many Of the best min
operators in the field, who nov
live in Joplin, have said to m
that they would be glad to com
to Baxter Springs provided the,
could get some assurance tina
we are going to build a sewe
system and insure the sanitar,
condition of the city. Thes
people are used to the best Q
conditions and unless we ca
J have conditions attractive her
. they viii stay away from Baxte
Springs"
There can be no town, in il
real sense, without sewers" sal
C. E. Peoples Of Pittsburg VIII
for years has been interested j
>, Baxter Springs. "As soon as
: sewer plant is put in it will il
, crease the price Of property t
I two to three hundred dollars MOI
than its original price. In fact
