The finance committee and the clerk
was instructed and authorized to pur-1
eiiase a typewriter of standard make,
not to exceed $100, and empowered to
sell old typewriter to apply.
The finance committee report was
read and approved by the council and
ordered entered' on the minutes, with
the exception of the delinquent lists
attached. The report is as follows:
"To the honorable mayor and com
mon council: The treasurer's finan
cial report for the six mouths ending
December 31, 1910, has been submitted
to the committee. The general fund
account as shown therein has been
audited and found correct with treas
urer's books and accounts. Water
fund account has not been audited.
Treasurer's report for the year ending
Dec. 31, 1910, received too late to be
audited. Copies of tho above reports
submitted herewith The
town treasurer's attention is called to
the fact that quarterly reports of the
town's finances should be submitted,
subject to audit and published. As no
such reports have been published
during his term of office it is recom
mended that the yearly statement for
the year 1910, when audited, be pub
lished, and thereafter quarterly re
ports be published.
The general fund shows a credit
balance Jan. 1, 1911, of S1222.f3.
The water fund shows a credit hal
auco Jan. 1, 1911, 53589.93.
The general fund balance at the be
ginning of the year shows considera
bly less than at the same date for the
two years pYcvious, notwithstanding
the ten mill levy in 1910, against a
six mill levy in 1909, which Is ac
counted for by the increased expense
in 1910, and the large amount of de
linquent taxes.
The total Income for the two years,
1909 and 1910, from the two main
sources, property tax and licenses, is
as follows:
1909. 1910
Property tax J3711.39 S4907.65
Licenses, 2283.85 2537.42
Total . 5995.24 7445.07
Total expenditures.. 7936.21 9363.37
Showing aii increase of expenses In
1910 over 1909 of approximately S1500,
accounted for mainly by the two items:
Fire hose $697 and street sprinkler
677.61. It is recommended that the
fire hose be charged to the water fund
and credited back to the general fund,
as It should b the ..property., of, -the j
water department and is used in con
nection with it and as an offset to
many charges to tho general fund in
administrating the town's affairs,
maintaining an office, etc., which
might properly be apportioned to the
water fund.
In order to maintain a proper work
ing balance in the general fund to
meet the needs of the town it will be
necessary to collect all back taxes and
water rents as fully as possible.
The delinquent tax lists for the last
three years are as follows:
1908 ,. . S 883.19
1909., 244.93

"I would like to guide
suffering women o a sure
cure for female troubles,"
writes Mrs. R. E Mercer,
of . Frozen Camp, W. Va.
"I have found no med
icine equal to Cardui. I
had suffered for about
four years. Would have-
headache for a week at a
time, until I would be
nearly crazy. I look Car
dui and now I never have
the headache any more."

Th Woman's Tonfc
The pains from which
many women suffer every
month are unnecessary.
It's not safe to trust to
strong drugs, right at the
time of the pains.
Better to take Cardui
for a while, before and
after, to strengthen the
system and cure the cause.
This is the sensible,
the scientific, the right way.
