S9IEII PIT LIFE" —That’s what a prominent druggist said of Scott’s Emulsion a short time ago. As a rule we don’t use or refer to testimonials in addressing the public, but the above remark and similar expressions are made so often in connec tion with Scott’s Emulsion that they are worthy of occasional note. From infancy to old age Scott’s Emulsion offers a reliable means of remedying im proper ajid weak develop ment, restoring lost flesh and vitality, and repairing waste. The action of Scott’s Emulsion is no more of a secret than the composition of the Emul sion itself. What it does t does through nourish ment—the kind of nourish ment that cannot be ob tained in ordinary food. No system is too weak or delicate to retain Scott’s Emulsion and gather good from it. We will send you a sample free. Ec sure that this picture in the form of a label is on the wrapper of every bottle of Emulsion you buy. SCOTT & BOWNE Chemists 409 Pearl St., N.

The Grip. “Before we can sympathize with others, we must have suffered our selvss. ” No one can realize the suffer ing attendant upon an attack of the grip, unless he has had the actual ex perience. There is probably no dis ease that causes so much physical or mental agony, or which so successfully defies medical aid. All danger from the grip, however, may be avoided by the prompt use of Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy. Among the tens ot thousands who have used this remedy, not one case has ever been reported that has resulted in pneumonia or that has not recovered. For sale by P. C. Corrigan. EWING M. T.Sanders has a patent lire alarm that start as soon as the fire starts anywhere about the building in which you have it placed. It can be con nected so the alarm will go off in another building other than the one in which the fire originates. The alarm will continue until the fire is entirely out. J. A. ‘Trommershausser purchased from C. T. Gunter this week, the famous Pickerel Lake where every man, woman and child who have lived in Ewing during the last 20 years or more, have fished or eaten some of the many fish caught there. Trom. seems to have an eye for the good things about Ewing. A purse of 950 was soon raised last Friday, and on Saturday a lot of men went out to Stewart Murphy’s, built an addition to his 10x12 house, paper ed it all and finished it up. It was certainly a short order house. Several ladies were out who made Mrs. Mur phy much more comfortable and she is improving nicely.—The Advocate. Stomach Troubles and Constipation. “Chamberlain’s Stomach and Liver Tablets are the best thing for stomach troubles and constipation I have ever sold,” says J. R. ^ullman, a druggist of Potterville, Mich. They are easy to take and always give satisfaction. I tell my customers to try them and if not satisfactory to come back and get their money, but have never had a complaint” For sale by P. C. Cor rigan. OIUAAX Dr. Hunt fumigated the school house thoroughly before school opened in the endeavor to destoy all scarlet fever bacteria, supposed to be lurk ing in the leaves of the school books. The Stuart post office reached the limit of a salaried office the last quar ter of 1905. If the office maintains its record for twelve consecutive months, it will be ranked with third class offices, instead of fourth along with hamlets like Dustin and Brodie. The Frontier sometime ago contain ed an item which told of the divorce of Dan Hall and (Mary Hall of Atkin son. The Bassett Leader last week said that Dan Hall and Mary Hall of Atkinson were married by Judge Olsen at Bassett Jan. 3. Arthur Hahn suffered a severe nervous collapse Wednesday, caused by taking too many cough drops for an attack of influenza. He will be a little moderate hereafter in taking It Quiets the Cough This is one reason why Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral is so valua ble in consumption. It stops the wear and tear of useless coughing. But it does more —it controls the inflammation, quiets the fever, soothes, and heals. Sold for 60 years. “ Ayer’* Cherry Pectoral has been a regular life preserver to me. It brought me through a severe attack of pneumonia, and I feel that I owe my life to its wonderfuL curative properties.”— William H. Truitt, Wawa, A Made by J. O. Ayer Co., Lowell, Maas.

Mrs. Kraft received.u talegram Wednesday morning from Dr. Lord, Omaha, saying that Miss Ida Kraft had undergone a surgical operation and was doing as well as could be ex pected. She had the appendix and 200 gallstones removed. Her father will remain with her for a few days.— The Ledger. ATKINSON Howard Greely, by a recent decision of the Interior department, retains the title to a quarter section of land in Gregory county, S. D., upon which he had established a squatters right and one Henry E. Cole afterwards filed a soldier’s declaratory, the de partment holding that the squatters right was good. The many friends of Howard in this part of the country are pleased over the decision which gives him a valuable quarter section upon which he had establised a home. There seems to be a feeling among the members of the different town ship and school boards throughout the western part of the county that the board of supervisors should em ploy an expert to check up the differ ent funds and put them on a footing so that they will know just where they are at. A good many of them have not had an accounting for years and it has been impossible with many to tell In what financial condition their districts are in, and we think the taxpayers of tire county will glad ly be burdeded by a reasonable amount to be paid as a fee to an expert to thoroughly check up every school district and township in the county. n iai^c uutuuci ui me uuaiuuss men of Atkinson met with a committee representing the South Fork and the Green Valley Independent Telephone companies at the office of Havens & Stilson, last Tuesday afternoon, to discuss the advisability of establishing an Independent telephone exchange in our city. Dr. McDonald was made chairman of the meeting and Dell Akin secretary. The prevailing opin ion seemed to favor the building of thelexchange, for the reason that the several independent country lines that have built into Atkinson have no medium of exchange, unless they contract with the Inter-State Tele phone Co-, which is a part of the Bell system, and that they refuse to do. This forces the business men and patrons of the different lines to be inconvenienced with several phones which is undersirable and expensive. The following committee was appoint ed to make further invesigations and report at some future time fixed by the chairman, M. Campbell, J. E. Brook, Will Schultz, W. B. Argan bright, Dell Akin.—The Graphic. Danger of a Cold and How to Avoid Them. More fatalities have their origin in or result from a cold than from any other cause. This fact alone should make people more careful as there is ne danger whatever from a cold when it is properly treated In the beginning. For many years Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy has been recognized as the most prompt and effectual medicine tn use lor this disease. It acts on na ture’s plan, loosens the cough, relieves the lungs, opens the secretions and aids nature in restoring the system to a healthy condition. Sold by P. C.

I was a widower at the time, and I used sometimes to go over the bridge to Boston evenings to meet friends and return near midnight by the same way. The way was silent, save here and there a belated footstep. The sea rose or fell among the wooden piers, and there was a greut furnace on the Brighton hills whose red light was reflected by the waves. It was on such a late, solitary walk that the splr't of the poem came upon me. The bridge has been greatly altered, but the place of It Is the same.” Spoiled Her Beauty. Harriet Howard, of 200 W. 34th St., New York, at one time had her beau ty spoiled with skin trouble. She writes: “I had Salt Rheum or Eczema for years, but nothing would cure it, until I used Bucklen’s Arnica Salve.” A quick and sure healer for cuts, burns and sores. 25c at P. C.

What m "Hurricane” la. “Hurricane” is the old Spanish name for a West Indies cyclone, but It is used by modern meteorologists to des ignate a long continued wind of ex treme violence. In Beaumont’s scale the different winds are classed as “light,” “gentle,” “fresh” and “strong” breezes. The next Is a “stiff” breeze, then a “strong” wind and then we strike the “gales.” The "gales” run through three or four classes, the last merging Into the “hurricane.” Greatly in Demand.

The Kind Yon Have Always Bought Bears the Signature of WINDS AND DRAFTS. The Former Are Beneficial, kaf the Latter Are Dangtroaa. By a draft Is meant the currents of nlr in an inclosed space. Our fore fathers attributed nearly all the evils that beset them to drafts, and they would not have slept in uncurtained beds for anything. Of course their windows and doors were shaky, and houses stood far apart, so drafts were nearly inevitable. But the modern sci entific world tries to deny drafts alto gether and calls them winds, which are harmless and even healthy to a certain degree. Any one who cares to find out the difference between a wind and a draft can do so in any apartment which has windows on different sides of the house. Let him open a window on a windy day on the side of the house toward which the wind blows. The air which comes in is quite harmless if the person exposed to it be dressed in warm clothes, and little children may take the air in a room thus ventilated. But let him open a window past which the wind blows, and it will be found that the air in the room is moved by a number of currents, all of which strive to reach the opening. It is the passing wind which sucks up the air in the room and draws it out, and this causes the room to have what is called a draft The effect upon sensitive persons is immediately felt, like the forerunner of pain to come. A draft will always be felt as colder than the wind. Very dangerous drafts are those that are produced in railway cars by the rapid motion of the train. It is not wind that gets into the carriages, but the air of the car which is sucked out. A lighted match held to the chink of the window will prove this, as the flame will be drawn toward the window, not blown from it. ■\vl ■ THE 1906 World Almanac and Encyclopedia Is On Sale All Over the United States It Is a volume of nearly 700 pages, and sells for 25c.
