This town needs your IIKLP.
It is a good town, but every good citizen wants to see
it become a better town. * But unless the good citizens
stand bv tlie town, lend a luund, put a shoulder to the
whoel or g-ot in front
and pull, without balk

If It be true that ancient remedies
are always the best It may be of In
terest to those atlllcted with dental
troubles to know how the ancient
Itomans dealt with nueb Ilia. Tbe Qui
rifles recognized two types of treats
ment. the magical and the medical.
The following \are some of the preacrlp
tlons advised by the magicians: .
Take the liead of a dog that has
died of rubles, mix the ash with oil of
cyprus and tuject the product Into tbe
ear of the affected aide. '
A water snake's vertebra will serve
to scarify the gum provided that It be
obtained from a white skinned snake,
or for the same purpose may be used
a lizard's frontal bone obtained when
the moon Is full, or. If that fall, a
chicken bone will 4jd?. provided that It
be dried In a hole lu a wall and thrown'
awuy immediately after used.
It is good treatment to inject Into
an aching ear oil of lemon In which
have been macerated mallow bugs, even
should this last give rise to itching.

During one of the battles of Mur
freesboro a group of wounded men was
? huddled about a field hospital, waiting
surgical attention, when a big brawny
trooper, with a bullet in his left leg
and another in his right arm. hobbled
up, holding his wounded arm in his
left band
"Doc." he drawled, "the Johnnies
came pretty near hitting ma"
I Another fellow blowing blood copi

The case of six generations living Is
given by Tennyson thus: "Daughter,

teenth cqptury had Imagined on?

writes that the mother said to her
daughter, "Daughter, bid thy daugh
ter tell her daughter that her daugh
ter's daughter hath a daughter." a
credible injunction in the case of a
centenarian only.

Of course It Is the natural desire
of every mother that her daughter
j should "marry well," to use a cur
: rent phrase. , Hut much depends up
on how we interpret the word
"well." Usually It Is applied to a
?young u.un ? Income or llnancial
possessions. When this Is the case
the standard used Is an unfortunate
one. There Is not a more cruel
standard by which to measure a
young man than the position he Is
able to offer the girl of his choice.

false Ideal of dress which the mo

"What You Find Beneath the Surface"
"Outside Appearance May Be Deceptive"
"The Milburn Way"
The prime essential of a good wagon is Tim- J
ber, and the prime essentia! of good
wagon timber is Correct
Seasoning.
The Milburn Wagon bears evidence on the suface of skillful workmanship
and good material, culminating in a beautifully finished wagon, HOWEVER,
you should have MORE conclusive EVIDENCE than this, you should KNOW
of the painstaking selection of the MATERIAL of its scientific SEASONING
and AGING, its careful TREATMENT before it goes to fulfill its proper place
in a finished wagon.
It is SERVICE that COUNTS. SERVICE to the WAGON USER has
proven the wisdom of the "MILBURN WAY" of SEASONING wagon timber.
