Comptroller Marvels At Way Wis
 cOnsin City Handles Affairs

H. M. Taylor, city comptroller, has returned from Wisconsin where he attended the national convention of comptrollers and accountants, and is all het up over the way Milwaukee finances things.
 Save for paving and similar public improvements which are laid down in the immediate vicinity of the people who pay for them, Milwaukee doesn't float any bonds, it pays cash, he said Monday morning.
 When Milwaukee folks want any thing they tax themselves for it he went on, and they are leaving no heritage of debt for posterity. Mill waukee has a river and it fills up with mud. It costs money every year to dredge it out. In former days bonds were floated to pay for the work. Now it is one of the an nual items of the budget and taxes are applied to cover the expense. The city has been on a cash basis for ten years. Using the sinking fund to retire obligations and paying cash is their recipe for municipal prosperity.

Sleeping Sickness
 Fly of Africa
How Method of Fighting This Pest Inspired Manufacture of Sweet Dreams Mosquito Remedy.

traveller in relating his various ex:: periences in Africa, casually mentioned how the natives protected themselves against the ravages of the Tsetse fly. As is generally known. the bite of this fly results in Sleeping sickness" a malady from which an unfortunate seldom recov- CTS.
 It was reasoned that remedy capable of keeping off these flies would also keep mosquitoes off. So in America this rem edy was reproduced as nearly as possible. Having been found exceptionally satisfac- tory as mosquito remedy, this mixture has since been offered in commerce under the trade name of Sweet Dreams. The efficiency of the preparation has caused it's immediate acceptance everywhere.
 And the traveller doesn't yet know that his entertaining story resulted in the birth of an industry.
 When mosquitoes are troublesome try Sweet Dreams. Red-top bottles sold everywhere 35c or 8 bottles for S1.00.- Adv.
