after loading 11p their Machines re-
paired to the Commercial Hotel where

After driving around a block there was
a round -up on the Gore where the trio
of agents ,wade each at shunt address.
Mr. Schren k said lie was trot a speech-
maker ; neither was it necessary that
he should he as every implement he
sold put in a good word for hint.

BRIDGES AND CULVERTS.
Experience has shown durable im-
provements to be the most economical.
One of the most common leakages of
municipal funds arises from the main-
tenance of temporary wooden bridges
and culverts. The life of a wooden
structure is, at the outside, not more
than one-half or one-third that of an
iron bridge, or culvert of cement or
masonry, while the cost of keeping the
former in repair during that period is
very considerable. The price of the
timber is constantly rising, and, in
many localities, first-class material is
difficult to obtain at any reasontible
price. The cost of iron has been very
much reduced of recent years,
Scrofula, hip disease, salt rhuem,

St'CCESSFUL AT LAST.
"I was a sufferer from ,neuralgia in
my sidles and headaches. I followed

fit and was persuaded to try Hood's
Sarsaparilla. When I had taken only
one bottle I realized it was doing me
good and continued taking it until I
was cured." MRs. CARRtg PAWS,
