A Bad'Practicc. '
All the world despises a spotter or a
spy. In some of our schools the teachers
appoint certain pupils as spies. It is
their duty to watch-thoir fellow-students
and report to the teacher any broach of
the rules. Those appointees are dislg-
nated "monitors , " and yet I think "spy"
a better title for them. It is a bad prac
tice. It teaches disloyalty to their play
mates. The practice ought to bo kicked
oat of every school-room. Columbus

maliciousness , low contemptible am
devilish ,

Look the Fact in the Face.
The progress of a bad cold toward gal
loping consumption may be terribly sud
deu. Don't let this ugly fact frighten
you , but when you begin to cough take
Allen's Lung Balsam , that stops th

cough for a time. There is no narcoti
drug in Allen's Lung Balsam. Sold b >
all druggists.
Merely a Reminder.
Bear in mind that Perry Davis' Pain

external troubles. It will stop the
agonizing cramps in the bowels whinl
follows exposure to cold and wet when
taken internally , and will euro strains
sprains and bruises when applied extern
ally. It should bo administered in warm
water , slightly sweetened. There is bn

Thn lust number of llin Indoor cliuu-

the M , 1' } . church during thn past week
WIIH given liiHt night when I'rof. Phil W.
Gould gave his musical inono'oguu , "Tlio
Old Piano. " The Htory WUH interesting ,
giving mi account of Hl'n in un old Now
England village including u period of
time before and uftor thn war of the
rebellion. The plan of thn story WIIH to
introduce a number of old fiiHliloned
HongH thut , were pleasingly Hungby Pro
fessor Gould , who IIUH a beautiful buri-
lone voice , and interpreted the HongH
with poetlo feeling. During the mono-
ogno the onterlniner used four musical
iiKtrnmcntH apparently with equal skill
ind with good effect they were the or-
gun , guitar , banjo and harmonica. An
noident of the performance might huvo
ed mi uudjoncn of lesH intelligence to
) rCMimn the entortuiiier had unusual
magnetic or hypnotlo power. A win-
low open back of the platform permitted
ho wind to blow onto the speaker and
those in the audience. Ho stopped to
iMc if any members of the audience were
nconvenionccd and receiving an allhiii-
ittve reply ho turned toward the win-
low , when it slowly and jorkingly pro
ceeded to close , stopping within an inch
or two of the top. The Hocret of the
window incident was that the janitor
had noticed that there was too much
wind mid wont outside and cloned the
window at the exact moment when the
attention of the audience had been at
tracted to that point. It was funny and
the speaker made the best of tlio situa
tion by drawing forth u hearty laugh.
The chantauqna was very successful ,
except perhaps in point of attendance ,
some of the numbers not being UH well
attended as others. They were all very
heartily enjoyed by these who attended.

Do Not Be Afraid
o look the facts squarely in the face.
That cough , racking and persistent , ac-
oinpaniud by tightness in the chest and
pitting of sticky mucus , is a sign of
onsumption. Common sense dictates
liouHoof Allen's Lung Balsam , an lion-
st remedy , since it contains no opium ;
in efficient remedy , since it heals the
rritatod , inflamed throat and lungs ,
nd HO prevents a deep seated cold from
tinning into incurable forms of con-
nmption.
Getting
Thin
is all right , if you arc too fat ;
and all wrong , if too thin already. ,
Fat , enough for your habit , is
healthy ; u little more , or less , is
