Last Friday witnessed the concluding -
cluding exercises of the most successful -
cessful sit months' term of school
ever taught in district 58. DBEs
Laura Pickering conducted the
school , and the rapid advanceineiit
of the pupils is evidence that she
understands the art of teaching.
Book-keeping and some other of
the higher branches were taught.
Quite a number of the advanced
scholars took up these , branches.
The pupils took an unusual interest -
est in their studies , and by attentive -
tive application to study displayed
a commendable thirst for knowl-
edge. This earnestness in seeking
after knowledge was the direct result -
sult of the faithful promptness of
the patient teacher. The scholars
who attended this term will long
hold in pleasant memory Laura
Pickering , their teacher. Friday
evening there was an exhibition.
The programme contained fifty-
seven numbers , consisting of a
speech of welcome , songs , declamations -
mations , dialogues , etc. , and they
were all delivered in a very creditable -
itable manner , occupying three
and one-half hours time. Each
one willingly and heartily enact d
the part or parts assigned to them.
Over one hundred and thirty people -
ple were present , and many pronounced -
nounced it the best school exhibition -

"WHEN SPRING COMES
I RECOMMEND Pl : 1tU-NA TO ALL
SUFFERERS" SAYS EDITOR
1M. T. PowELL , OF
CLAnINGTON , 0.
1 r. ' 1' Powell , editor of the Independent -
dependent of Claritgtou , Ohio ,
writes that lie was taken sick with
bronchitis and catarrhal fever ,
bead was in a terrible eonditiou ,
lungs were badly affected , being
so tight and sore lie could hardly
breathe , and coughed almost in-
cessantly. For two months tried
local physicians , took cough lned-
icines itud other medicines. Took
three bottles of Pe-ru-tia and was
entirely cured.
It is needless to attempt to give
only the vaguest outline of tbo
wonderful success which Pe-ru-nit
has met with in the form of
catarrh. This success is entiiely
due to the fact that Pa-ru-na eradicates -
icates the disease from the system -
tem , instead of temporarily relieving -
ing some disagreeabhi symptom.
Not only is catarrh in all stages
autl varieties cured promptly , belt
also colds , coughs , bronchitis , la
grippe , catarrliitl clvspepsia , all
yield , surely and permaueutly , to
the curative virtues of Pe-i'u-nil.
As a spring medicine Pc ru na
is a never failing remedy. It
cleanses the blood through digestion -
tion , and gives tone to the whole
system by increasing the nutritive
value of the food. Spring fever ,
as it is sometimes called , which i
produces a tired-out , sleepy feeling -
ing , and inability to do lnueh
mental or physical work , is the
iesult of a sluggish digestion , and
no blood medicine will be of any
use whatever unless it is able to
rectify the impaired digestion.
The great popularity that Pe-rn-na
has is doe to the fact that in all
such cases it at once corrects digestive -
gestive derangements and enriches
the blood by purifying this very
important source of that vital fluid.
Send for book on spring medicines
and spring diseases. Also a valuable -
uable treatise on catarrh , la grippe ,
consumption , coughs and colds , by
Dr. H 'u' tmau , sent free. Address

A HAPPY MOTHER-$72.50
IN A WEEK ,
1YIR..UDITOIt : I feel so happy
that I must tell , through your val-
uable' paper , what I did , so others
can be happy and make money
too. Things looked blue ; these
hard times had thrown my husband
out of work ; the interest on the
mortgage was coming due and no
money. I saw an advertisement
of the Rapid Dish Washer and
thought I could sell them. I sent
$5.00 , got one , and my husband
washed the dishes because he did
not have to put his hand in the
water , and did not have to rub
them nor dry them ; they came out
all nice and clean and ready for
the shelf. He also took care of
the house and baby. I got the
agency and sold ten the first day ,
and have cleared this week $72.50
and will by next week have enough
to pay the-interest , and am sure
we will have money all winter.
Anyone out of work should send to
W. P. Harrison & Co. , Columbus ,
Ohio , and get a circular , have a
happy home , and make money too.
Times are going to be hard this
winter , and much suffering can be
saved if mothers and daughters
would do as I have.
