Sound Waves

The term "sound" is often mistaken
" restricted to the sensation involved
In hearing. The term sound is actual
ly applied to those aerial or other
vibrations which, were they to reach
the ear, would be audible. Sound is
made Of waves In material things Of
earth, like air, metal, water, or wood.
A falling tree produces sound waves
which vibrate symmetrically about 1t

PeptO-Mangan Builds Red Blood
The Happy Family Is the One
Where Everybody Has Red
BlOOded Health

Children should not be pale
and wan. Women should not be
tired, weak and pale. Young
girls should not be sallow, list
less and anemic. Men should
not feel rundown and poorly,
Poor health and lack of vitali-
ty are often merely the result
of improvised blood.
GUIDES Pepto-M angan is for
people whose bodies suffer from
lack of proper blood nourish-
ment. Pepto- Mangan enriches
the blood and increases the
number of healthy red blood
cells, which are so necessary to
carry the proper nourishment,
nervousness, and strength to
every part of the body.
1t contains the very properties
that are so sorely needed to
build up thin, watery blood.
Physicians call it the Red Blood
Builder.
For your convenience Pepto-
Mangan is prepared in two forms
liquid and tablet. Both contain
exactly the same medicinal
value.
Insist on the genuine Pepto-
Mangan. To be sure you are
buying the genuine Pepto-Man-
gan. ask your druggist for
"Gude's". And be sure the
name Guides" is on the pack

Preserve the Roads

That the people of this territory
are appreciative of good roads is
borne out by the fact that a con-
siderable deal of money has
been spent in road improvement,
and that with the formality of
an election when such
proceeding was in accordance
with the law.
But the mere building Of roads
is not sufficient; they must be
maintained. This, too, costs
money, and our people are will
ing to spend money for this pur-
pose. But there is another
thing to take into consideration
in connection with the main
tainance of good roads - they are
easily damaged. And this is be-
ing done, unthoughtedly, we
hope. 1t is a matter of common
knowledge that some people are
dumping tin cans and other rub
bish from the City along the
different highways leading out
of the City these soon find their
way into the bitches and dams
them up, thus cutting off the
drainage and running the road.
Besides, this class of rubbish
cannot be removed by the
machines and adds greatly to
the upkeep of the roads by add
ing to the cost Of the labor.
We feel sure that it is only
necessary to call attention to
these abuses to put a stop to this
practice, for we believe that it
is mere thoughtlessness. How
ever, if such is not the case, and
the practice is continued, there
is a law which forbids just such
things, and the offenders will
find themselves facing the courts
if it is not stopped.
Then, too, remember that
these things look just as bad
when dumped along the roads as
they do around the premises,
and they certainly give a visitor
a very poor opinion of the peo-
pie when they see the highways
thus married. Let's put a stop
to this practice.

Think

When you stop your subscrip-
ton to this paper, or any other
because the subscription price
has been raised from the old
to SO cents higher, do you ever
stop to figure that in place of
paying from Is to Is cents a
pound for butter the man that
runs the paper now pays 65
cents; milk that was 5 cents per
quart is now Is to 20 cents;
potatoes have jumped clear out
of the ground from Is cents to
$500 per bushel; sugar from 10
cents a pound to 80 cents; a suit
of clothes from $500 to $500;
shoes from $3.50 to $1,000 and
$1,000 a pair; paper on which
this is printed from 2 cents a
pound to IL and 16 cents; ink,
machinery and everything else
that is used in and around a
printing office has advanced at
the same rate or worse? To
keep up with the prices of other
manufactured products the price
of subscription should be SIS. 90

not be rich enough then to pay
$25 a quart for booze to help to
drown his sorrows and dissa-
pointments in dealing with a
