Water Works Sure.
At the regular meeting of the
borough council Wednesday even
ing, the contract was signed .and
the franchise granted for the new
water works, and the ordinance
will appear in the next issue of the
Eagle. The borough gets a com
plete system for lire protection, the
large reservoir being 240 feet above
Main street, and the families will
have a n opportunity of getting pure
spring water for household use, a
blessing which few towns enjoy.
The water company is to sustain
a pressure of 100 pounds to the
square inch which will give Eldred's
famous fire fighters a great advan
tage over the destroying element;
the company also furnishes water
for a public drinking fountain and
water trough, and water for sprink
ling the streets. For this service
the borough is to pay §350 annu
ally, or only about 8100 more than
it costs to keep up the line we now
have for fire protection alone. El
dred is certainly in luck.—Eldred
Eagle.
Diphtheria is in Los Angeles, Cal,

ciated 61y
We publish an advertisement of
Kodol Dyspepsia Cktro in our col
umns this issue, and wish to say to
our patrons that we believe this
preparation is worthy of a trial by
anj' person suffering from this
agonizing complaint. We honestly
believe this preparation will do for
you all the manufacturers claim for
it.
Kodol Dyspepsia Cure is pre
pared by the well known and reli
able linn of E. ('. DeWitt &Co.,
Chicago, and from our long ex
perience, in a business sense, with
this Jinn as advertisers, we feel
safe in saying that they would not
place <ni the market a preparation
for the cure of Dyspepsia, unless
they had a remedy of the highest
merit, and conscientiously believed
it would cure this well known and
almost universal complaint.
We further add that if this prep
aration is equal to the other well
known remedies which they make,
viz: DeWitt's Little Early Risers,
DeWitt's Witch Hazel Saive, and
One Minute Cough Cure, it will
speedily win its way into public
favor.
We cheerfully and heartily give
our personal endorsement to this
concern, and the reliability of the
goods they manufacture, which
have been largely the means of !
their success, and in writing this
voluntary endorsement on our part , |
we feel that we are simply per- j
forming a duty which we owe to !
our patrons.
DR. BULL'S Cough Syrup will make
a permanent cure in all cases of cough
or cold on chest or lungs It will euro
when other remedies have failed Phy
sicians recommend it.
