" ascertained that a majority of the
stock taken was represented.
The meeting was called to order
with LeKov Lee an chairMan
and (\ E. St.Amand secretary.
The object of the meeting
was then stated. It was reported
that all the material was at hand
to build the town lines and equip
the central office, and the country
lines were knocking lor admittance.
This being the situation
it was necessary to do something
at once to get things ib
working order. To effect this pur?
pose it was moved that a board of
directors be elected with power to
charter the company and in general
take charge of its management.
This motion was carried
unanimously. Suggestions were
invited as to the number ot directors
to be chosen, s.nd it was
agreed that three should be elect~,i

and M. F Heller were elected one

members of the board of directors.
Mr. Lelioy Lie was placed in
nomination, but asked to be excased
Irom serving on the board.
An itemized statement of all
expenses incurred up to date was
read betore the meeting, and it
was estimated that about $275
would be required to cover the
entile cost of tlie enterprise.
There being no Iurfher business
the meeting adjourned.

"All well?all happy?lots
of fun". That is the regular
report from the monkey cage
cf Barnum's Circus ever since
.he keepers began dosing the
monkeys with .Scotts Emul
sion. Ccnsump :ion was carrying
off two thirds of them
every year and the circus had
to buy new ones.
One day a keeper accidentally
broke a bottle of Scott's
' Emulsion near the monkey
cage: and the monkeys eagerly
. lapped it up from the floor.
This suggested the idea that it
might do them good. Since
chen the monkeys have received
regular doses and the keepers
report very few deaths from
onsumption. Of course it's
hcapcr to buy Scott's Emulsion
than new monkeys?and
that suits the circus men.
