' Why Put Up *hen vou can build a permanent one with the same expense? A Stave Silo, like a wood side walk, is a good thing while it lasts but it does not last long. A Stave Silo, when empty is like a huge barrel. Did you ever set an empty barrel out in the sun, and the next day, find that a little puff of wind had blown it all down in a heap? . :: :: " A GOOD SILO must be durable and permanent, must be smooth on the inside to insure per­ fect packing, must be fire proof and fat proof, and above all, must be capable of \ withstand­ ing the ravages of the weather. A Stave Silo has none of these requirements, a MONO­ LITHIC CONCRETE SILO has them all.^ :: :: - » There is one false objection that is sometimes raised. It is said that the cost is too great. It is true that a MONOLITHIC CONCRETE SILO costs more than the cheap stave silo, but no more than the so-called good one; in fact they are cheaper in the long run. Any article costs vou as much as you spend for it and on It,-plus 100 per cent when you have to replace it. The MONOLITHIC CONCRETE SILO never has to be replaced, hence the FIRST cost is the ONLY cost.l :: " - :: :: :: :: :: Stave Silo agents are making frantic arguments against concrete silos, and make all manner of false statements in their efforts to sell their product. They are desperate because they know that as soon as the .concrete silo is introduced, that the stave silo must go. Do not t a k e t h e i r w o y c l f o r i t .

Granger was chosen pres­ ident of the new board of trustees, for the ensuing year, at their meeting on .Monday evening last. The residence of Fairweather Bros., «ast of Mudgett's cheese factory, was burned on Sunday sight, together with a large portion of their furniture. Mrs. Justen, mother of N. and J. Justen, the West Side furniture deal­ ers, died cm Friday last and her funeral was held at the Johnsburgh church on Sunday morning last. Married--Tuesday, April 18, at 1:30 o'clock, at his residence, by Rev. E. B. Boggess, Mr. Frank W. Hatch, of English Prairie, and Miss Agnes M. Kimball, of McHenry. The girls say that some of the Mc­ Henry fellows have to be pounded on the head with a club to make them tumble to even such a broad hint as don't want any company home." The new steam boat, the "Grayling," was launched and made a trial trip on Sunday, running to Pistakee Bay and back. We believe the trial was en­ tirely satisfactory to her owners. C. Stegeinann's team undertook to go to church alone «mi Sunday morning but after taking a sn^rt but lively run around the streets brought up suddenly against a post in front of Hauperish's shop. Wjghtman's freight team took little turn up street on their own ac count on Monday, badly demoralizing the wagon and laming one of the horses quite badly. They made a lively run for a few minutes. Cook Wright, son of Robert Wright of this village, who is with Marshal Field & Co., Chicago, sailed on S&tur day last for England, wher : he goes to buy goods for that firm. This speak volumes for Cookson's integrity and ability and his many friends in (this village and vicinity heartily congratu late him on his good fortune. The Libertyvill Times says that "George Combs is authorized to match the stallion Prairie King against any Lake or McHenry county horse for a trot on the Libertyville track for a purse of from one to five hundred dol­ lars."

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 reast. 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 helpt How the Keeley Treatment Corps The Keeley remedies cure by removing the artificial alcohofvappetite 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. , r 7//T/////M Information Coupon THE LESLIE E. KEELEY Co.. Dwltfht.

WEST H'HENRY, ILL One of the first questions that the modern housekeepar asks about the house, "Is it wired for electricity?" If the house is an old one, electricity goes a long way towards making it modern--whether new or old, it lightens a great deal of the domestic labor at small cost. Electricity does all the hard part of washing and sewing, makes ironing pleasant work and housedeaning san­ itary. Before renting a house that is not wired, every housekeeper should consider of what she would be depriv­ ing herself. m YOU CAIfT SAY IT BACKWUDS WITHOUT A DRAWL S»y, ypu use pup Ifrd?
