There are two rcmurkahle provisions in Senate i 4 7 1 to i IhS attention of the voters i i i has not yet been a i Senate i No.

471 is the i I b.v Senator Hudson at tiic request of the president of the i i a League the organization witli i the "citizens" bosses of Chillicolhe are identified. The Constitution has befor published the remonstrance clause from this bill, and it is well understood now that the bill requires that a remonstrance to be effective must be signed by three-fourths of the resident property owners owning three-fourths of the entire front footage on the street be paved. It also provides that if a three-fourth remonstrance be not filea, "then the city council shall find and declare, by ordinance, that good and sufficient remonstrance has not been filed; and such findings shall be conclusive and final." This gives no appeal from the ruing of the council. Under such a aw any council which wanted to reject a remonstrance, no matter how many property owners were represented thereon, could do so and would be no power to prevent it and no appeal from its action, so and no appeal from its action. Another feature is one which gives council power not only to reject nny and all bids but.

after it has done this, to let the contract to any person it desires without bidding. Section (b) of No. 471 says: 'In case no bids are received or that all bids are rejected or for any other reason the contract he not let, city council may, by ordinance, rder and require the city engineer or other proper person designated by said council in said ordinance, to make said improvement, according the plans there- or, and all the cost of labor and ma- erial therefor shall be paid by the council out of such moneys as hey may have on a and available xr such use. (Provided, however, the cost of said work shall not in excess of the estimate on files herefor.) And on the completion of said work an assessment shall be made and the tax bills issued as liere- nafter provided and said tax bills shall be a first and prior lien against property described therein the same as other tax bills." Thus a council which was inclined favor any certain contractor might reject all i and let the work to favored a declaring him to be the "proper person" to do such work. Nothing in the way of a Cough is quite BO annoying as a tickling, teas- Ing, wheezing, bronchial Cough.

The quickest relief comes perhaps from a prescription known to Druggists everywhere as Dr. Snoop's Cough Remedy. And besides, it is so thoroughly harmless that mothers give It with perfect safety even to the youngest babes. The tender leaves of a simple mountain shrub, give to Dr. Shoop's COugh Remedy Its remarkable curative effect.

When a medicine effects a cure in i)S per cent of cases, and when we a medicine on our personal uaratitce that it will cost the user nothing if. it does not cure Catarrh, it is reasonable that people should believe us, or at least put our claim to 7 a practical test, when we take all the risk. These are facts i wo want the people of Chilli- othe to substantiate. We want them to try Rexall Mucu-Tone, a medicine prepared from a prescription of a physician whose specialty was Catarrh, and who has a record of thirty years of euros to his credit. We sell more bottles and receive nore good reports about Rexall Mu- cu-Tone than we do of.

all other catarrh remedies sold in our store, and if more people only knew what a dependable remedy Rexall Mucu-Tone is, it would he the only catarrh medicine we would have any demand for. Eexall Mucu-Tone is quickly absorbed and carried by the blood i it thoroughly disinfects and cleanses the entire mucous membranous tract, destroys and removes the parasites' which injure and destroy the a tissues, soothes and heals the irritation and stops the mucous discharge, and i up strong, healthy tissues, relieves the blood and system of diseased matter, stimulates the muco- cells, aids digestion and improves i i "until the whole body vibrates with healthy activity. In a comparatively short time there is a most noticeable gain in weight, strength, color and feeling of buo3 ancy. We urge you to try Muco-Tone, begining a treatment today. At any i you are not satisfied, simply come and tell us, and we will quickly return your money i question or We have Rexall Mucu- Tone in two sizes, 50c.
