Guy Ewing, County Superintendent. Badly Mixed Up. Abraham Brown of Winterton, N. Y., had a very remarkable experience he says: "Doctors got badly mixed up over me, one said heart disease two called it kidney trouble the fourth blood poison, and the fifth stomach and liver trouble but none of them helped me so my wife advised trying Electric Bitters, which are restoring me to perfect health. One bottle did me more good than all the five doc tors prescribed." Guaranteed to cure blood poison, weakness and all stomach, liver and kidney com plaints, by C. A. Jack, druggist, 60c. GREAT PRE-INVENTORY Previous to taking our annual inventory we find it necessary to clear out a large quantity of surplus stock, and in order to expeditiously effect such clearance we are holding a special sale in which prices have been chopped down to a point where profit is not taken into considerationin fact some of the goods will be disposed of at figures less than they cost to manufacture. This is a genuine cut-price salethere has been no marking up and markiug down afterwards. An inspection of the mer- chandise will fully satisfy you that this statement is correct. It is a price reduction sale in the true sense of the wordbig values for little money. We feel confident that no store in town, or even in the northwest can compete with us in this special sale when the quality of the goods is considered. Buy now. Lay in a stock for future use. Following is enumerated a few oi our pre-inventory sale prices: Men's All Wool Overshirts, regular $2.00 shirts, to be sold during sale at 1.4 8 Men's All Wool Overshirts, $1.50 value, at only 1.1 8 Men's All Wool Overshirts, $1.00 value, at only .78 A fine line of All Wool Heavy Shirting Flannel, regular price 50c a yard, now .42 36 in.

It is probably fortunate that there is a difference in opinion as to the advis ability of making a flat two cent rate of fare on all the passenger railroads of the country Local conditions vary widely, according to density of popula tion, closeness of competition in the territory and other factors in opera tion A rate which is profitable and even increases business by its cheap ness in a populous region may be un fair and unbusinesslike in a district less favored It is being argued that the two cent rate long in existence on the New York Central road has built up thriving cities along the line But this road al ways had a very profitable carrying business between the lakes and sea board to even up its low passenger rates What is wanted is a rate to en able the operating companies to live and increase their facilities for serving the public Rate regulation should be dealt with after due investigation of the needs and conditions in any par tlcular stretch of country involved. The Germans, who believe in thor oughness, are about to put in opera tion in Berlin a rule that no man shall be permitted to drive on the streets of that city without he has first demon strated his fitness to do so It is doubt ful whether the innovation will result in any very marked diminution of ac cidents. Observation teaches that it is not incompetent drivers who are rethe sponsible for the mischief done in big cities. Usually carelessness is at the bottom of the trouble, and the manstifling who knows how to drive is more apt to be negligent when handling the reins than the fellow who is new at the business. It is stated that Great Britain will send a fleet of five warships to Esqui mau early next spring. It is not known whether they will remain on the coast for a long period, but they probably will. The British, too, have just dis covered that the Pacific is a big ocean and that things may be doing on it gome day. Doctors who plead guilty to Pro fessor Osier's charge that they smoke too much may allege that they com pound for their own indulgence by for bidding it in their patients. "China has more money than she knows what to do with," says an ex change. But there is hope for her yet The steel trust is going there. i at Onam ia and Milai a, January 3 0 and 31, and February 1, 1908. Thursday, January 30th.

Roadstrom, Princeton (Dec 26Jan 23) PROGRAM OF EXAMINATIONS FOR Common School Certificates. GUT EWING, County Superintendent Our Dirty Ancestors. The daily morning bath was by no means popular with our ancestors in good old days, for soap is really quite a new factor In the world's life. Most cf our ancestors were very dirty and dissembled the fact by the use of perfumes. Washing one's hands, which was only done by the very best people, meant dipping the fingers in rosewater and drying them on a nap kin. Even the Romans of the time of the "decline," who were probably the cleanest as a community, simply bath ed in water and rubbed themselves with oil. It sounds nasty to us, but, then, so does, for example, Chinese music, which millions of orientals think delightful.London Answers. A Puzzle. "My dear, will it bother you if I ask a question about our club bookkeeping? You know I'm treasurer." "No. Delighted, I'm sure." "Well, we gave a charity euchre for the benefit of the Old Ladies' home. It cost our club $300, and we only took in $250. Now, I figure it out that the old ladies owe us $50. Am I right?" Life.
