On Friday evening, January 19, the Harvard high school boys' basket ball team defeated the McHenry highs fine by the score of 56 to 36 on the former's floor. The feature of the game was the basket throwing of the Harvard players, their center and forwards making a total of 26 field goals. The visitors' forward, Bolger, was com­ pelled to remain out of the game. As McHenry defeated Harvard earlier in the season each team has won one game. If another game is played, which is likely, it will be played in McHenry. Next Friday evening both the boys' and girls' teams will play Dundee at Dundee. Both teams are confident of victory.

DELBERT BELL. Our people were surprised and shocked last Wednesday night to hear of the death of Bert Bell. Delbert Bell was born near Ringwood June 2U, 1871, and died in this village Jan. 17, 1912, aged 40 years and 6 months. He grew to manhood, attended our school and has lived here all his life. While he has not been in robust health for the past few years, no one thought of any immediate danger, and he had made pleasant plans for the future, which makes it sad for her who is left to mourn his early departure. He leaves an aged mother, four brothers, John, Edward, Frederick, of this place, and Frank, of Ong. Neb., besides other relatives and friends. He was a good neighbor and friend and very kind to Lis mother, and all extend their sym­ pathy to the sorrowing ones. The fu- eral was held at the home Saturday, Rev. McHenry officiating, who spoke such comforting words. Mr. and Mrs. T. J. Walsh sang some fine selections. The floral tributes were beautiful, and he was laid to rest in the family lot in Ringwood cemetery.

We went to the city of Harvard, And played their high school team, And if I'd tell you that we lost, Now funny it would seem. But it's the truth, they beat us, Fifty-six was the Harvard score, While we were held to thirty-six, But we're going to play them one more. And when we do we'll beat them, There's no doubt al>out that, They're going to play us in our hall, We'll put thein to the mat. When we played them in their city, Our defence was rather lame, Our forward, Bolger, was not there, That's why we lost the game> For chapped hands. 25c at Petesch's. Benzo cream, 21-tf CHERRY VALLEY.

Treatment We do not recommend home treatment in the ca either liquor or drug addictions: these condi­ tions are serious and demand tbe best aad most efficient treatment; this cannot be administered by the patient himself. 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 bis case is watched and cared for.

Keeley proved that drunkenness is a true disease. It affects the nerve cells, pro­ ducing in them a demand for alcoholic food. And it paralyzes the sufferer's will power and ability to resist. Not one man in a thousand can stop immod­ erate drinking of his own accord. No more than he can cure himself'of smallpox or brain fever. He must have help! How the Keeley Treatment Cores 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. |ymmmmmmmwmmmwmmpzmmmw/mmzmm | Information Coupon THE LESLIE E. KEELEY Co., Dwirfht.
