If you are not improving it behooves you to make the effort before disease and time have put you past all chance of aid. One chronic ailment does not give immunity from others, but must lead toward other diseases, and the more complications you have the less chance you have for recovery.

County's Lively Capital settlement. The electric light proposition was taken up immediately after the adjournment of the council by the members of the electric light committee, of the council acting with the other members as a committee of the whole. Manager Potter and A. C. Handley of Chicago, the men most vitally interested in the present concern, were present, Mr. Totter having arrived from a trip to Europe only the evening previous. The situation regarding the existing rates that has thrown the Crown Point consumers into such a turmoil were gone into In detail and Mr. Totter stated that the rates as fixed in his absence were not at all consistent with his intention and the plan of charging the consumer on the basis of opening in his residence would not be enforced or even tolerated. After considerable discussion the council and the electric light management fixed on a temporary rate schedule which will in most Instances reduce the bills considerably lower than those previously paid. While being advantageous to the larger current consumer, the rates adopted will not materially lower the price of the current to the consumer burning less than 25 kllowats per month. The following sliding scale was agreed upon for the time being, the council taking no action of record on 'the proposition: The consumption of from 0 to 10 K. TV., at 12i cents; the consumption of from 10 to 25 K. W, 10 cents: the consumption of all over 25 K. W., at 8 cents, the sliding scale being the basis of figuring.
