Beware of Ointments for Catarrh that Contain Mercury, as mercury will surely destroy the sense of smell and completely derange the whole system when entering it through the mucous Burface. Such articles should never be used except 'on pre scriptions from reputable phy sicians, as the damage they will do is ten fold to the good you can possibly derive from them. Hall's Catarrh Cure, manufactured by P. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, O., contains no mercury, and is tak en internally, acting directly up on the blood and mucous surfaces otthesystem. In buying Hall's Catarro Cure be sure you get the genuine. It is taken internally and made in Toledo, Ohio, by F. J. Cheney & Co. Testimonials free. Sold by all Druggists. Price, 75c. per bottle. Take Hall's Family Pills for con stipation. During the last session of Con gress, Representative W. W. Griest, of Lancaster county, introduced a bill providing for the extension of the mail delivery service to smaller towns than are now permitted to have the privil eges of such a service. It was not passed, but Mr. Griest pro poses to enter upon an energetic campaign to the measure through during the sixty- second Con gress, by which all postoffices of the second and third class shall have free delivery. Inasmuch as large postoffices and rural com munities now have free delivery there is no reason why it should sot be extended to include not merely all postoffices of the sec ond and third class, but also to postoffices of the f urtb class, as then all people would be treat ed alike. FOR VOIR HAIR. Here Are Facts We Want You to Prove at Our Risk. When the roots of the hair a're entirely dead and the pores of tbe scalp are glazed over, we do not believe that anything can restore hair growth. But, when the hair roots retain any life, we believe there is noth ing that will so surely promote hair growth as will Rexall '93" Hair Tonic. To prove that state ment, we promise to promptly return all tbe money you pay us for Rexall "93" Hair Tonic, should it not please you. Rexall'WTIIairTonicdestroys the germs which are usually re sponsible for baldness. It pen etrates to the roots of tbe hair, stimulating and, by promoting circulation, nourishing them. Rexall "93" Hair Tonic helps to relieve scalp irritation, to re move dandruff, to prevent the bair from falling out, and to pro mote an increased growth of bair. It comes in two sizes, prices 50 cents and $1.00. Remember, you can obtain it only at our store The Rexall Store. Leslie W. Seylar. Local Institute.

Tbe fourth local institute of Brush Creek township was held at Buchanan school December 1, 1911. Meeting was called to or der by tbe tbe teacher Ivallixson who appointed Chester A.

The amendments to the state constitution, one affecting Pitts burg alone and tbe other Philadel phia, have both been adopted, but by only small majorities, as the vote in both cases throughout tbe state, outside of those cities, was agaist their adoption. It is not a matter of surprise that the vote on the amendmnts, outside ot the above mentioned municipalities, was light, as it was perhaps the most proper thing not to vote on them, leaving the decihion ,f the matter to those directly cuuceru ed, bu t why any should vote against the amendments, when they were not affected by them, is a mystery, and shows the eccentric vagaries that voters have some times, which often result in do ing injustice to good measures or good men.
