You readily recognize the best
scientific way to treat disease is to
remove the cause. That's what Oste-
opathy does. Give it trial.
After several weeks absence, Sa-

mean the treatment of bones nor of
bone diseases. 1t was used as a name
because the founder discovered the

The Censor's door casing has
new mark on it-one that is six feet
7ls inches from the floor. Maurice

Store, is the man-and he is not only
the tallest clerk in Viroqua, but prob
ably the tallest man in the county.

bred Percherons which he had con-

Veteran j. S. Ady was called here
on the sad errand of being present at
the funeral of his sister, Mrs. Mary
Green. AS has been his custom for
several years, he spent the winter at
the National soldiers home at Leav-
enworth, Kansas. On the day of his
departure, one of the comrades with
whom he had eaten at the same table

The Censor is much pleased to
learn that Berlie Moore's big northern
farm deal did not go through. When
Berlie checked up the land in the farm
h found that it was about 80 acres
short of being 200. The property had
gone through several transfers listed
as 200 acres, but Berlie's experience in
land matters enabled him to discover.
the mistake. Had the deal gone thru
we would eventually have lost Berlie;
and he is so valuable and efficient, both
as county clerk and citizen, that this
community can i'll afford his depart
ure. Young, progressive men of his
ability are needed here.
At the recent meeting of the State
Shorthorn Breeders Association it
was decided to raise fund to pay one
third of the salary of J. Tormey, who
is a former Grant county Shorthorn
breeder, and at present with the Ma
tional Shorthorn Breeders Association
with the understanding that he is to
devote one-third of his time to Short

A large share of his work will be the
handling of sales for Wisconsin breed

The Milwaukee Journal publishes
story about some of our neighbors
over in Clark county seeing a blue
flame, which mysteriously lifted itself
from snow bank and assembled cork
screw fashion several hundred feet in
the air. 1t is said to have left hot
spot in the snow at the point from
which it started. Other reports from
different parts of the nation state that
similar blue flames have been seen by
various people and that scientists are
endeavoring to ascertain the myster-
ious sources. Not being a scientist,
we can offer but little aid and only a
few suggestions. 1t may be that GER
tain oil stove companywhich has much
to claim for its blue flame has hit
upon a new advertising stunt. That's
our suggestion No. 1, and we can't
think what to suggest for No. 2. But
if anybody anywhere gets to seeing
pink snakes, green elephants, or la
vendar canaries, at the same time hav-
ing high fever and pain in the
tummy, perhaps local scientists may
be found who can explain the source
and advise how much it costs per qt.-
