There is more Catarrh in this
section of the country than all
other diseases put together, and
for years it was SUP osed TO be
incurable. Doctors prescribed
local remedies, and by constantly
failing to cure with local treat
ment, pronounced it incurable
Catarrh is a local disease, greatly
influenced by constitutional con-
ditions and therefore requires
constitu tional treatment. Halls
Catarrh Medicine, manufactured
by F. j. Cheney & Co., Toledo,
Ohio, is a constitutional remedy,
is taken internally and acts thru
the Blood on the Mucous Surfaces
OF the System. One Hundred
Dollars reward is offered for any
case that Halls Catarrh Medi-
cine fails to cure. Send for cir

was made by him IN trying to
get out of a trap that he got
himself into with reference to
the amount of Liberty Loan
Bonds subscribed for in his
town. In his first statement,
and the correct one too, he rath-
er boasted about the people
there subscribing for twenty. FIVE
hundred dollars worth of bonds
and asked us if we could say as
much. Afterward he happened
to learn that our subscriptions
amounted to "a great deal more,
and he came out the next week
by saying that he intended to
say twenty five thousand instead
OF what he did say. Now the
facts are that his first statement
was the correct one, and that the
banking institution at that place
subscribed for the TWENTY-FIVE
hundred dollars worth of the
bonds and that it did not come
from one or more Individual pat
riotic citizens of his town. We

INCOME TAX MAN COMING.
Collector of Internal Revenue
Hughes announces that officers
will start from his adquarters
on January I. and on January 2,
every one of them will be on the
job in the county assigned him,
to meet the people and help
them make out their income tax
returns. The officer assigne d
to this county will be at Mt Yer
non from Jan. end to Jan. Sth.
On his arrival he will inform
bankers and postmaster where
his Office will be located 1t
will be we'll for every unmarried
person whose net income for
1917 is 81 900 or over, and every
married person living with wife
or husband whose net income for
1917 is ST. 900 or over, to call on
the income tax man and learn
whether or not they have any
tax to pay, Collector Hughes
said TODAY. The person subject
to tax who doesn't make return
in the time prescribed is going to
regret it The government will
get after all income tax slackers.
There's hardly business man,
merchant or professional man,
who won't have to make a re.
turn OF income. Farmers, as a
class, will have to pay the tax.
The safe thing to do is for every
person who had total income of
81 900 or 81, 600, as the case may
be, and who is not sure about
what deductions the law allows
him. to play it safe by calling on
the income tax man. The man
in the field will have forms for
every body and persons who ex-
pect to call on him need not
trouble themselves to write to
my Office for forms.

 That April Vacation Show in the

 Some weeks ago was visiting some relatives whose little boy was going to a show in his friend attic, wasn't able to go to that show but ] heard all about 1t afterwards from his friends mother. It was much like the shows you and 1 used to give in our attiCs in April vacations lApril vacations seemed dedicated to that sort of thing, doubtless because they came at an awkward time, mid way between the infinite possibilities of winter and summer) except that instead of the old time stereopticon there were moving pictures. Besides these, one of the boys did some tricks out of a trick box and a, groWn-up sis ter obliged with patriotic songs.

 Tn another family of youngsters the most beloved uncle is an Uncle John who is always making up "let's pretend' games for the children One day he said he wasn't Uncle John at all but another Uncle who had been lost at sea and had come back, Uncle Albert. Tn this character he told them all about his travels and asked them all about Uncle John. It seems an absurd proceeding to grown-up but you cant imagine how it ticl1led those children. A month later their greeting to him was: Do you remember when you were Uncle Albert Be Uncle Albert again
 Someone has said that it does not seem possible that cats are really kittens grown up. They seem to have such totally different Chara cteristics, that it seems as if they must belong to some other species.

REVELATIONS OF A WIFE
 By GARRISON
By ApELE GARRISON

Jumped at me as I tore open the en- velope without waiting to cut it in my usual methodical manner A reminiscent smile came to my lips as l did so. How many times I had heard Dicky laughingly term me "old- ma1dlsh, because of my precise man ner of opening my correspondence
 Well, Madge, darling" the letter began, and my heart thrilled at the familiar salutation, one which is on Dicky's lips frequently when opening a conversation with me. I could all most hear his lips utter the words so strongly did the sight of them bring
 my husbands vivid personality before me.
 I've been thinking over things a bit," the words ran on. "although I've been too busy to start the old think tank going very rapidly, and I've come to the conclusion that 1 was about ninety-seven kinds of brute
 the night before I went away.
 "I certainly did make ructions
 about that garden-tennis court stunt,
 and 1 want you to know that I'm
 mighty sorry. If there's any particu-
 lar kind of penance you want me to
 do I'll go without the eats or a drink
 for a day, or any other equally fend-
 ish torture your ingenious mind can invent. But tell me you forgive me- won't you7"
 I shut my eyes, unable to read fur ther for a second or two. Dicky's re- pentance is always royal, and the lit tie pleading sentence at the end of his apology was one I frequently had l heard from his lips.
 A Strange Contrast. My wonderful, royal lover hus- band! Why was it that in this great est of all tests of manhood he was hanging back while other men of his class were giving themselves gladly, regally?
 Unbidden, there rose before my mental vision a picture of the wound- | ed officer in the next room, a man l who was playing a real mans part in l the greatest of all world struggles It | hurt me cruelty, this contrast of the 1 two men which was thrust upon me- I turned to the letter again, for bit terness had entered into the loving
 thoughts of my husband which his re- l pentance had brought me. l I started violently at the next
