substantial contribution to the move

The working of the attachment is
simple and is explained by Inventor
Poole as follows:

dred and seven dollars and eighty
eight cents is entirely due to the fact
that nineteen hundred dollars in city
vouchers and three hundred dollars of
county vouchers have been carried by
the bank for nearly two years, and
have only recently been cashed, which
fact has resulted in an accumulation
of cash just at this time, but your
necessary purchases of books and other
necessities will soon absorb this I'M
uually large cash balance.
Your building is in need of some
minor repairs, notably to the roof, and
you are especially urged to have the
same attended to in the near future.
am particularly pleased to report
to you tat in addition to the usual APP
proprietor of one hundred dollars per
month, the city has recently given us
an additional appropriation of three
hundred dollars, to be expended in the
purchase of chairs for your auditor
ium. These chairs have already been
ordered, and when installed, will prove
q very great addition to the popularity
of this feature of the library. Respect
fully submitted.

Look and Feel
Clean, Sweet and
Fresh Every Day
Drink a glass of real hot water
before breakfast to wash
out Polsons.

Life Is not merely to live, but to
live well, eat well, digest well, work
we'll, sleep we'll, look we'll. What q
glorious condition to attain, and yet
how easy it Is If one will only adopt
the morning inside bath.
Folks who are accustomed to feel
dull and heavy when they arise, split
ting headache, stuffy from cold, foul
tongue, nasty breath, acid stomach,
can, instead, feel as fresh as a daisy
by opening the sluices of the system
each morning and flushing out the
whole of the internal poisonous stag
nant matter.
Everyone, whether ailing, sick or
we'll, should, each morning, gefore
breakfast, drink glass of real hot
water with teaspoonful Of limestone
phosphate in it to wash from the stOm-
ach, liver, kidneys and bowels the
previous days indigestible waste, sour
bile and poisonous toxins; thus
cleansing, sweetening and, purifying
the entire elementary canal before
putting more food into the stomach.
The action of hot water and limestone
phosphate on an empty stomach is
wonderfully nvigorating. 1t cleans
out all the sour lamentations, gases,
waste and acidity and gives one a
splendid appetite for breakfast. While
you are enjoying your breakfast the
water and phosphate is quietly ex-
tracing large olume of water from
the blood and getting ready for a
thorough flushing of all the inside
organs.
The millions of people who are
bothered with constipation, bilious
spells. stomach trouble, rheumatism;
others who have sallow skins. blood
disorders and sickly compilations are
urged to get quarter pound of lime
stone phosphate from the drug store
which viii cost very little, but Is
SUFFICIENT to make anyone pronounced
rank on the subject Of internal santa
ton advt.

the Carnegie Library Of Americas
covering the work of the Library from
MAY the 1st, 1916, to April Both, 1917.
Some of the statistics for the year
are smaller than they have been Tor
three years. The membership is small
er, and the circulation Of books for
home use is smaller as a whole; but
lie falling off has been in fiction only
for we have circulated more books OF
non-fction than in any previous year

Our most often felt need is for more
ard new books. New books stimulate
circulation more than anything else.
Most librarys have a number OF
branch librarys or deposit stations, If
cur collection of books were large
enough to permit division the lib
rary could increase its usefulness by
having many deposit stations through

Complying to the duties incumbent

nit to you my annual report.
1t is with pardonable pride that l
report to you that your library con-
tinues to thrive and prosper.
From the report of your librarian
YOU will note that two hundred and
six new members have joined the
library during the year, while one
hundred and fifty-nine five-year mem
bers have renewed their cards and
have been reinstated as new mem
hers. making three hundred and sixty
Ave new members enrolled for the year
just ended.
Your circulation of thirteen thousand

somewhat under that of some previous
wears. show that the privileges Of the
library have been enjoyed by very
large proportion of the reading pub
public. which when taken in conjunc-
ton with the seven thousand and
thirty-two who have used the refer
ence books and periodicals, shows that
the books and periodicals Of the library
have been either read or consulted
twenty thousand FIVE hundred and
seventy times.
This rapid circulation of the limit
ed number of books and periodicals
owned by the library. not only sug-
gests rapid deterioration of the
hooks but renders the employment of
an assistant librarian almost a neces-
sity, and your president urgest you to
take this matter under serious consid-

Your expenditures during the past
year have been exceedingly small, and
as a consequence, your treasurer re-

court, where the books for period of
three months were closed Feb. |. All
told los state cases were entered and the
fines and costs turned in to the state
aggregated $939.06 Fees in civil cases
amounted to 1915. In November, De-
cember and January, the period covered
in the present report, SIS civil cases were
docketed, but only three of them were
tried, two by the court and one by jury.
In one instance where state case was
prosecuted jury was empaneled, but
not used. From the state treasurer. the
sum of 1862 was received back by the
magistrate to distribute in fees, some OF
them going to the officers and others to
court attaches. The total of l0s state

past 10 years. The largest number of

profit represented in the Decent entry is
reckoned after the salary of the Judge
