Quick Way to End
Dangerous Cough
Why let a dsr.~c rous c"ugh hang on
when you can, through a simple treat-
ment, get speedy rcli f end often break
it up completely in. 2-' h ra?
This treatment io L?.:vd on the fa-
mous Dr. King's New Discovery for
Coughs. You take just one teaspoon-
fui and held it in your throat f-,-r * 3 or
20 seconds before swallowing it. It ha3
a double action, ii not cniy soothes
and heals irritation, 'out also removes
the phie-fm and congestion which are
the real c.-usr. of the cc ighing. So the
worst cough quickly disappear3.
Dr. King's New Disco very is for
coughs, chest colds, bronchitis, spas-
modic croup, etc. Fine for children,
toe -no harmful drugs. Very econom-
ical, as the dose is only one teaspoon-

NOTICE TO THOSE SUBJECT
TO ROAD DUTY
m
There has been a special road
law passed for Wood County,
and for the information of those
who do not know the contend? of
said law, I make the following
explanation. All those w-.o de-
sire to pay their road t?x for
the year i926, may do so if
done before the 1st day of Feb-
ruary, for the sum of $3.50, and
by paying same to the County
Treasurer, who will receipt you
for same, but if sail road tax
is rot va ? before the-" oov° date
Feb 3. t. the amount then dir
is $5.00, or 5 days w the
roads of said county. And tc
those who have not put in the
time required or paid their road,
t£<x for the year of 1925, wiP
j havej opportunity to do so before
. the second Monday in February
of this year, as the road law ex-
j tends over and ends the 2nd
^Monday in February of each
You will be warned b
^fejrour Commissioner, or some one
^authorized by him, and if you
fail toobev said summons and
refuse to put in the time requi;
ed you are then subject to r
fine, and under the law the com
missioners in each precinct art
forced to turn you in to the Co-
unty Attorney, or to the Granr1
Jury, or any Justice of the
Peace. And let me insist here
that every man subject to road
dutj* be willing to do his part
to keep the roads in as good
condition as possible, as this i-
almor-t th: only means, that the
county has now to maintain th<.
r roads, and if we will al> cooper
ate with each other we, can im-
prove the roads wonderfully.
And just stop and think th^t-
it is not right for some to pay
and work and others get by, se
.fall in line and do your part
And remember that when yov
are summonsed to put in youi
time on the road and you fail ov
refuse to do so and then youi
commissioner turns you in and
you have to pay a fine tha'
there is no one to blame bu
yourself.
Yours respectfullv,

Farmer Well Called
"Indispensable Man"
Now goes tlie husbandman forth In
tlie chill dawn with renewed vigor in
his gait. All winter lie has labored,
hut not himiPdly, fixing his barns, cut-
ting wood, pruning fruit trees and car-
ing for his animals. On bad days he
sat by the (Ire and turned tilings over
in his mind—so many acres of wheat
and so many acres of oats, this field
for roots and thai for corn. And you
may be sure that he has also turned
over the pages of many a catalogue
longingly, wishing he could buy twice
as many things as he can afford—the
better to do his complicated job of
feeding the urban multitudes.
When the snn passes the meridian
the farmer knows that his dawdling
days are dime; henceforth, for eight
months he will be racing with the cal-
endar, with frost, rain, hail, tlood and
the everlasting weed. Old Sol sends
to the husbandman a challenge along
with his blessing of fructifying heat.
GIddap!
Ye city dwellers, reflect upon the
manifold activities of this unknown
friend of yours as he proceeds with
the preparation of your next winter's
dinaers. Sap bucket in hand, he makes
the rounds of his maple trees. Bring-
ing the most progressive of his hens
into a warm corner, he dusts her with
antilonse powder and leaves her to her
devotions. Then he sees to It that she
has water and food during her setting-
up exercises. Next, he gets the brooder
ready for the day-old chicks he has or-
dered. Presently, in a mad rush to
finish a mean joh before the ground
ihaws. he returns to Mother Earth the
iast of the accumulated fertili:.,>r from
:he barnyard. Any nutub^ things
must be done before plowing, because
thereafter every day will demand Its
need of seeding, planting, harvesting,
md animal tending.
All this labor, all these chances of
ife and death, intervene between All
ools' day and Harvest Home. The
farmer, facing the chill spring wind
and the challenge of the climbing sun,
is the very embodiment of human per-
sistence—the utterly indispensable
aian.—Boston Independent.
TMiOSB big red letter days on the
calendar mean particularly s'.ttnp-
i ; >i*s dinners to the average Amer-
ican housewife. Her family expects
something in the nature of roast
turkey, duck or chicken. Of course,
the home manager doesn't want tc
serve the same thing each year and
as a conso'iii'-rn-e. she spends hours
in hunting r •<-ij < s and planning new
tilings in the menu iine.
The appended menus for the holiday
dinner and supper may prove a wel-
come change to your family.

Preference in Meats
In an analysis of meat consumption
statistics the Department of Agricul-
ture noted that the British eat nearly
-even times as much mutton and lamb
as do Americans, and declared the rea-
son has "baffled satisfactory explana-
tion."
Mutton and lamb consumed in the
I'nited States last year made up only
.'<.2 per cent of the total meat con
sumption, while the percentage in
Great Britain was 22. There was 10
times more beef and 15 times more
pork than mutton and lamb eaten In
this country last year.
The department estimated that mut-
ton and lamb consumption was at the
rate of 5.2 pounds per person; pork,
88.8 pounds; beef, 02.6 pounds, and
veal, 8.3 pounds.
