They effect a cure every time." They never fail to tone the stomach, regulate the kidneys and bowels, stimulate the liver, invigorate the nerves and purify the blood. They work wonders for weak, run down men and women, re­ storing strength, vigor and health that's a daily joy. Try them. Only 50c. Satisfaction is positively guaran­ teed by N. H. Petesch and F.

A report reached McHenry Wednes­ day morning to the effect that several business houses at Richmond, Spring Grove and Johnsburgh were entered by burglars during Tuesday night. E, F. Matthews, proprietor oif the West Side meat market, has ^beautiful new delivery wagon in servifee. The wagon is nicely lettered and clearly demonstrates the progressiveness of its owner. Block & Bethke, the progressive Cen- terville merchants, have "'installed a number of beautiful new floor display cases into their place of business. The improvement is a good one and adds greatly to the appearance of the store i n general. R. J. Sutton, last week disposed of a beautiful young team of horses to Fred Converse of Lake county for the hand­ some sum of $415. The horses were five and six years old, and a more hand­ somely matched team could not be found in this vicinity. Mrs. A. Mueller entertained a num­ ber of her friends at a Hard Time party at her home last Saturday even­ ing. Those who attended say that there "was class" to some of the cos­ tumes worn. Games and gu&sing con­ tests were the evening's chief diversions of amusement. Refreshments were served. « The State bank at Hebron was entered by burglars early last Saturday morn­ ing.' The robbers were frightened away, however, before an entrance to the main vault was effected. Eighty dollars was all that they got away with. The vault of the bank contained $10,000 at the titne that the attempted robbery took place. . ? . Rumor has it that the train service between McHenry and the Terra Cotta factory will be inaugurated next Mon­ day morning. Here is hoping that the rumor will terminate into a reality. There are now over thirty McHenryites employed in the Terra Cotta factory and we can see where tbia number will be more than doubled just as soon as the train service is assured. nimjr <*««•* mr+mmim- will reduce living costs and give better living, lghati's 1910 Cata- atlS 3ogue will show you a / • I s t r a i g h t f o r w a r d t a l k about all the best kinds n&ila!<>f vef?etablesand flow- , vo < 's that expert growers M i!> America and Europe t an raise. 162 pages, 3 color piates; mailed FREE.

Phone 322 Lewis Bisenmenger, who abont six years ago resided in this vicinity and followed the occupation of a calf buyer, writes The Plaindealer that he will again become a resident eg this vicinity, having rented the old Aylward farm near Emerald Park, on Fox river, and expects to move onto the place next week. Mr. Eisenmenger further states that be will again follow his former occupation and will be pleased to deal with his former friends abont this vicinity. During the past five years Mr. Eisenmenger has acted in the capa­ city of street car conductor in Chicago. Several burglaries have been commit­ ted in nearby cities and villages during the past few weeks. McHenry thus far has been fortunate in not being visited by these undesirables. At this time the question of a night watch is again ripe in the minds of many of our citizens. A man was heard to make a remark to the effect that if McHenry needed two policemen during the day time it surely ought to be entitled to one night watch. We believe that the remark hit the nail squarely on the head, as many of our citizens are of the same opinion. This is a question that should receive the careful consideration of our village board at the beginning of another year. Saved a Soldier's Life. Facing death from shot and shell in the civil war was more agreeable to J. A. Stone, of Kemp, Tex., than facing it from what doctors said was consump­ tion. "I contracted a stubborn cold," he writes, "that developed a cougti, that stnek to me in spite of all remedies for years. My weight ran down to 180 pounds. Then I began to use Dr. King's New Discovery, which completely cured me. I now weigh 178 pounds."

Fonr members of the county execu­ tive committee were present at the Mc­ Henry Township convention last Sun­ day. Mr. Littlejohn of Gary was also a helpful visitor. The county organization exists for the purpose of gathering and disseminating helpful ideas among the individnal schools. This work is best done thrn our township organization, where it is an effective one. Mr. C. E. Gaylord was elected!vpreei- dent and Mrs. Warren Thomasi ^r., secretary of the McHenry to^njrfiip as sociation. A full corps of department officers was elected., Ifbey are planning the reopening of one|muday school that has been closed utu^HMr of years. It is urged that all the townships no­ tify the county secretary as soon as possible after deciding npon the date for their conventions, that there may be opportunity for • informing others who may be interested in attending from various townships. The county officers exist as snch that they may help the officers of the indi vidual schools in obtaining information of snch help and such methods as are available for solving their problems and also that by their efforts and personal influence they may encourage the ad­ vancement of the real ends of Sunday school work in the ooonty.
