O. FROST AND FAMILY DEFART.
O. Frost , cashier of the late
Bank of Bartiey , and family left ,
Sunday evening , for Beaver Cross
ing , this state , where Mrs. Frost
and Reuben will spend about two
weeks with friends and afterwards
visit at Columbus and Broken Bow ,
going from there to Detroit , Mich
igan to spend a good part of the
summer with relatives. It is need
less to state that their departure is
a matter of general and sincere re
gret. They have always been
among the foremost in affairs of a
social nature and identified with
every enterprise which would prove
of benefit to the town or ameliorate
the condition of those around them.
Their untiring efforts to improve
and beautify their residence pro
perty , in which they have been
abundantly successful , it being by
far the most attractive in town ,
cannot fail to be appreciated by
every admirer'of trees and shrub-
'bery and flowers and lawns and
well-kept premises.
In Mr. Frost the town has lost a
valued business man and a citizen
who commanded the admiration of
even his opposers by his persistent
and invariably successful efforts to
accomplish those ends which he
deemed wise and just. In Mrs.
Frost local society has lost a leader ,
one who will be missed on every
hand , and who was always lending
her cheerful disposition to brighten
the pathway of others. Charitable
to a fault , she was constantly ren
dering assistance to the needy and
afflicted and with them her place
will be most difficult to fill. In
Reuben his youthful playmates
have lost their ( jolliest memberone
always willing to sacrifice his
pleasure if by that means he could
add to the enjoyment of others.
For him to know one was to gain
their everlasting friendship and
his companions are a unit in ex
pressing regret at his removal.
Fortunate indeed is the place
where this family decides to locate
and to it we tender our heartiest
felicitation.
Between 125 and 150 friends
were at the depot when thev left
to wish them .god-speed and a safe
journey , thus testifying to the es
teem in which they are held by
those who have known them for
years. ,
Mr. Frost returned , Tuesday
morning , and will probably be in
the vicinity attending to business
for about two weeks before his
departure.
THE COUNTY TEACHERS.
The wielders of the ferule , the
autocrats of the "brainenes" , those
who preside over the nation's destiny -
tiny , in shortthe dear , sweet-faced ,
charming , chic , little schoolma'ams
h'oin alljparts of the count7 , flitted
into town , Saturday morning , with
the effect of a ray of sunshine in a
Kansas cyclone cellar , and went
away in the evening leaving the ;
town seemingly brighter and better j
because of their brief stay within j
its borders. McCook , Indianola ,
Danbury , Lebanon , Cambridge , l
and Frontier county were represented - c
sented , and the attendance partic
ularly at the afternoon session was (
large. \
The morning assembly was
opened with music by a vocal quar
tet consisting of Misses Kate Smith
and Nellie Stephens and Messrs. f
Perce Catlett and A. B.Wilsonand
devotional exercises by Rev. G. B.
Mayfield. Following was a paper ,
"The Use of the Story" , by Mrs.
Ami Teel of Indianola , which elic
ited considerable discussion. A
guitar duet by Miss Grace Cnrlee
and John Jones , and a paper by
County Supt. Carnahan closed the
forenoon program.
The beginning of the afternoon
session was characterized by a
vocal solo , Tennyson ' s well-known
poem , "The Bugle Song" , by Miss
Hannah Stangeland of McCook ,
who delighted her auditors by her
charming rendition. She was ac
companied on the organ by Mrs.
Frank Brown of Cambridge. Mrs.
Sylvester Cordeal of McCook and
Frank Abbott of Danbury were not
present , but the subjects of their
papers , "What Constitutes Order
in the School-room" and "The Relation - ,
lation of Teacher and School-
board" , were discussed by the
assemblage. In presenting his
address on "Cultivating the Imag
ination" Prof. William Valentine
of McCook did not disappoint those
wTho expected the usual treat from
his lips and , borrowing the expres
sion , "When he had finished noth-
iug remained to be said" . Rev.
Hart L. Preston handled his sub
ject , "The Teacher and Truth" , in
a very able manner and was accor
ded the closest attention. A guitar
solo by John Jones concluded the
program. At this juncture Presi
dent C. N. Whittaker was reminded
that he had another attraction and
accordingly introduced Roy Israel
of Orleans as "an elocutionist of
more than ordinary ability" . Mr.
Israel then endeavored to interest
the audience by a labored recital
of a granger's version of "How
Reubenstein Played the Piano" .
Then the meeting closed "for
sure" .

Mr. James Rowland of this village , states H
that for twenty-five years his wife has been a s * |
sufferer from rheumatism. A few niphts ago M
she was in such pain that she was nearly crazy. m
She sent Mr. Rowland for the doctor , but he J
had read of Chamberlain's l'ain Halm and instead - " *
stead of Roinji for the physician he went to I
the store and secured a bottle of it. His wife i
did not approve of Mr. Rowland's purchase |
at first , but nevertheless applied the Halm * J
thoroughly and in an hour's' time was able to / * fl
go to sleep. She now applies it whenever she
feels an ache or a pain and finds that it always f i
gives relief. He says that no medicine which id *
she had used ever did her as much good. The J * i
