Completely cured--the accursed ap­ petite never to return." This is a sample letter; we have many, many thousands like it. But we never publish names of patients, without their consent. In a number of instances we are allowed to use names of men who have been cured, as references, and will be glad to do so, and convince inquirers of the truth of our claims, if desired. Home Treatment We do not recommend home treatment in the case of either liquor or drug addictions; these condi­ tions are serious and demand the best and most efficient treatment; this cannot be administered by the patient hypself. It is better for him to be in a Keeley Institute, where he is constantly under the supervision of physicians who are skilled in treating these cases and where every phase and development of his case is watched and cared for.

New hope and joy and ambition brought into the lives of approximately 2,000,000 people! Isn't there someone you can help? Drunkenness Is a Disease Dr. Leslie E. Keeley proved that drunkenness is a true disease. It affects the nerve cells, pro­ ducing in them a demand for alcoholic food. And it paralyses the sufferer's will power and ability to resist. Not one man in a thousand can stop immod­ erate drinking of his ova accord. No more than he can cure himself of smallpox or brain fever. He must have help! How the Keeley Treatment Cures The Keeley remedies cure by removing the artificial alcohol appetite from the nerve cells, and restoring them to their natural condition. The Keeley medicines are nerve tonics. They cause no sickness or nausea. They are absolutely non-injurious and leave no ill effects of any kind. The "craving" for drink is not the disease. It is simply the symptom of the disease, just as a cough is a symptom of some irritation or inflam­ mation. When the nerve cells are restored to their nor­ mal, healthy condition, the appetite for alcohol disappears. " II-- " ^ Information Coupon ^ THE LESLIE E. KEELEY Co..

Attorney MacGuffin has been active in politics in Lake county and is well known to the party leaders thruout the district. He has many warm friends and supporters in McHenry and Boone counties, and this, coupled with the fact that he has no opponent in Lake county, practically assures his nomination in the primary election Tuesday, April 9. Almost every member of the Lake County Bar association, including the circuit judges, favor the candidacy of Mr. MacGuffin and in view of the fact that it has never been customary to elect a senator to succeed himself in the eighth senatorial district, it seems almost certain that, with no candidate in Boone county, the claims of Lake county, taking into consideration its large population, manufacturing and shipping interests, are well founded.

FREUND 111., West McHenry, FL, 1912. primaries April 32-tf Paid MacGuffin of Liberty ville, Lake county, is a candidate for state senator on the Republican ticket from the eighth senatorial district. Mr. MacGuffin is a prominent attor­ ney Of Lake county and has practiced In the courts thereof for the past sev­ enteen years, during which time be has resided at Liberty ville, one of the richest farming sections in northern Illinois, where he has built up a line business and gained the confidence of business men and farmers to such an extent that he has received the most enthusiastic endorsement of any candidate, who has sought the office of .gtate senator in many years. Paul MacGuffin has. in the past been to the office of president of the village board of liberty ville, and is present • director fn, and attorney To the voters of the eighth sena­ torial district: Having given due consideration to the solicitation of many of the voters, I have decided to become a candidate for renomination to the office of state senator in this, the eighth senatorial district of Illinois, embracing the coun­ ties of Lake, Boone and McHenry, and in making this announcement I do so with the assurance that I have, during my first term in this important office, sought to advance the best interests of the people of the district and to vote in accordance with the desire of the majority of the people, in so far as I have been able to gather their wishes. In making this announcement I want at this time to call the attention of the voters to a few matters in the line of constructive legislation, and legisla­ tion for the benefit of the people of this district, in which I have had a hand: First: I voted for George Edmund Foss for United States senator because the voters of the district had thus ex­ pressed themselves, on every ballot ex­ cept the final one, and on the final ballot I voted for Albert J. Hopkins because I did not sanction the bi-parti­ san alliance that resulted in the elec­ tion of William Lorimer, which has brought shame and disgrace to our fair state. Second: I supported the primary law, under which every voter has the right to express his choice as to who shall be the nominees of his party for every office, and the final law that I supported has been approved by the state supreme court. Third: 1 have kep* faith with the farmers and dairyi by supporting measures calculated for their benefit or opposing those whose passage would huv, an injury to them. Among th. *<• I,i l l s wiUi House Bill No. ,r>o. Ttiih provided that the city of Chicago should not have the right to insist on the tuberculin test­ ing of milk. Tl„. iaw should have been on the statute b„()k* many years ago. Again, I opposed House Bill 540 which had already passed the lower house. Before acting on this measure, however, I consulted with various milk producers thruout the district and called to Springfield a number of them, after having also called a conference of many producers, to whom the bill was explained and who agreed that its passage would be a great detriment to the dairy interests of the state. The result was that the bill, which was re­ ferred to the committee of which I was chairman, that of live stock and dairy­ ing, was never reported out of commit­ tee by me and was thus defeated. Again, Senate Bill No. 478 was referred to my committee- This bill provided that hotels and restaurants using but- terine or process butter, or any adul­ terated food stuffs, should give notice of such use either by printing the fact upon the bill of fare or by posting large cards embodying said fact where the same could easily be seen by pat­ rons. I gave this measure my strong­ est support, and in my opinion the law should have been enacted, for by sup­ pressing the use of the adulterated products the market for butter would have been strengthened, which would have meant better prices for the farm­ er's butter, as well as his milk. This bill was reported favorably out of committee and passed by the senate, but was defeated by the butterine in­ terests in the house. I believe that if butterine is used in public places it should be sold for what it is. Sixth: I secured the passage of Sen­ ate Bill No. 331, which appropriates the sum of $2,500 per annum for the years 1911 and 1912 to aid the State Dairymen's association in compiling, 'publishing and distributing its reports and meeting its other expenses. Seventh: I introduced a bill for an appropriation of $15,000 to build a state armory at Woodstock, and this measure became a law after a hard fight. Said bill met with no favor in the house, but when the house appropriation bill reached the senate, recommending the building of other armories and omit­ ting Woodstock, I secured its amend­ ment by adding the appropriation for the Woodstock armory, and if the amended bill had not been accepted by the house, there would have been no appropriations passed for the building of armories in the state. kv. Eighth: I introduced and secured the passage of an appropriation of $12,500 for the establishment of a fish hatchery in Lake county. This ifill passed the senate practically without a dissenting vote, but the same interests in the house tfcat killed Bill No. 478 would not even allow this measure to be put upon the calendar. I have this matter well advertised, and believe that at another session I can secure its passage with little difficulty. Lake county should by all means have one or two fish hatcheries because of the many lakes within her borders, for it would mean the keeping at home of many of those who now journey to other states to secure good fishing and spend their money. I introduced and got thru the senate a number of other meritorious bills, and, in view of the above statements of facts, which can be verified by the records at Springfield, I submit my candidacy to the Republicans of this district, assuring them that my best endeavors will be given, if renominat­ ed and re-elected, to securing for them everything demanded in the way of legislation for their benefit and pro­ tection, and I believe that, with the of the distr ict i experience acquired the past three years, my efforts will be much more effective. In conclusion, allow me to ask the voters of the district if the statement made by my opponents in the last cam­ paign, to the effect that 1 could not i^ake good if elected, are not strongly refuted by the record 1 h^ve produced, and in view of these accomplishments 1 confidently ask for your supporjb in the coming campaign, for which I will MeHENRY, ILLINOIS.

Typewriters Given Away • The Emerson Typewriter company of Woodstock, 111., have recently given away over 400 of the highest grade, wholly visible Emerson Type­ writers made in the world. They have gone into every state and terri­ tory in the United States. There may be some in your town. They are giv­ ing them away everywhere to men, women, boys and girls, ofter 18 years of age, on surprisingly liberal condi­ tions. If you could make any use of a $100.00 typewriter, providing it did not cost you even one cent, then in a letter or on a jjostal card addressed to Frank L. Wilder, President, Woodstock, 111., simply say, "Mail me all your Free Offers," and by return mail you will receive their Free Of­ fers, the names of over 400 who have recently received typewriters free, and you will learn on what easy condi­ tions you can get one of their type­ writers free right away. The Emerson Typewriter is one of the highest grade, wholly visible typewriters made in the world. Many who have used the "EMERSON" and other makes pronounce the "EMER­ SON" superior to any $100.00 type­ writer on the market. It is a w fu lly visible machine, has every new, up- to-date feature, looks like other higti grade $100.00 typewriters, though it sells regularly for less and on teims of $1.00 down and 10 cents a day un­ til paid for. The "EMERSON"' has every new improvement, universal keyboard, back spacer, tabulator, two- color ribbon, everything the best: is the ideal machine for beginners as well as for the most expert, typists and stenographers; just the type­ writer for the smallest or largest office. If you could possibly make any use of a high grade typewriter, even though it didn't cost you one cent ol money, then be sure, on a postal card or in a letter addressed to Frank L. Wilder, President, Woodstock, 111., say, "Mail me your Free Offers." 15he Future of your Child concerns you, the parent, most vitally.

Matthews WEST MCHENRY TELEPHONE 3 VAST SUN USED EVERY YEAR ON HIGH­ WAYS. McHenry county annually expends the sum of 790.51 on its roads and bridges as shown by levies made in the seventeen towns of the county. And of this big sum the town of McHenry expends the most, its total expendi­ ture reaching just $0,910.67. When you stop to think of it, it is a big amount of money to use every year, this almost $69,000, but the roads of the county are among the best of any county in the state and if McHenry county is to retain its position for the thoroughfares the money must be used for road improvement, for the day of laying out new roads has passed. Chemung stands second in road money expended, with Dorr third, the former town making a levy of $6,749. 13, while the latter's run to $6,371.06. Marengo follows with a levy of $5,996.- 14, with Nunda and Grafton coming close for nejft; place, Nunda expending $5,422.27 and Grafton $5,262.07. Al­ gonquin s road tax levy amounts to $4,355.94.
