While - investigating the cause for
the -sinking of the pavement at the
truck house on Spring street yester
day, city employes discovered a boil
ing spring in 1 the storm , sewer. A
considerable amount of .water is flow
ing from the spring, and just .how
the water will be disposed of. has not
yet been decided. City" commissioners
when questioned about the discovery
stated last night that they would in
vestigate It thoroughly and it may
be possible that the water can be put
to the public use.
The finding of this spring and the
possible disposition of the water offers
quite a knotty problem to the city
authorities. . The commissioners said
that if after a thorough investigation
they find that the frater can be Used
for drinking purposes It may be con
veyed to the city's reservoir. If the
amount of flow is not sufficient to
make this plan practicable and eco
nomical, a much needed drinking
fountain for both men and animals
may be installed near Spring and Gar
den streets. - ' . , "

TOE EXTENDED
PAYMENT TMES
FIFTY PER CENT PENALTY WILL
NOT APPLY TO LICENSES UNTIL
NOVEMBER 8. '
The city commissioners In regular
session yesterday passed the ordinance
providing for the extension of the time
In which to pay taxes to November 8.
All license taxes may be paid up to
this time without the addition of the
50 per cent penalty.
Under the old ordinance all taxes
were required to be paid before
November 1 after which time delin
quents were penalized 50 per cent,
but in view of the, fact that some
changes were made this year in licenses
charged, the commissioners decided to
extend the time one week. About a
half dozen merchants have already
paid their taxeh with the penalty, but
upon application to the city clerk they
will be refunded the penalty.

Pepto-Mangan Creates Rich Red Blood
Increases Strength.
This Woman Found Relief. .
Men and women suffering from
backache, 'rheumatic pains, stiff and
swollen joints, lameness and soreness,
will be glad to read how one woman
found relief from kidney and bladder
trouble. Mrs. G. Hyde, 1 Homestead,
Mich., writes: 'I have been troubled
with weak kidneys, and several times
in the last ten years I had that ter
rible backache and tired out feeling:,
scarcely able to ' do my work. Foley
Kidney Pills made me feel like a new
person." Sold everywhere.
Surgeon General Blue, of the United
States Public Health Service, in a
recent , statement from - Washington,
warns the public that the much-dreaded
influenza epidemic will probably re
turn this fall and winter. All rnedl
cal authorities agree .that the weak,
bloodless, rundown individual is more
likely to contract this (as well as any
other infectious disease) than is the
strong, robust, red-blooded man or
woman. In view of these facts, it Is
wise to use every effort to build up the
blood and thus increase the -bodily re
sistance to the invasion of the germs
of the disease. Gude's Pepto-Mangan
is-an absolutely dependable "red-blood
builder in all conditions of lowered vi
tality , not due to serious disease of the
vital organs. 'It improves the appetite,
imparts color to the cheeks, and creates
new hope and ambition In . those who
have become pale, weak and listless.
Physicians recommend . Gude's Peto
Mangan. "When you order, be 'sure
the word "Gude's" is on the package.
Without "Gude's," it is not Peto-Man-gan.
