been used in one family for
twenty years; do you?
But Mrs. Helen Kilkenny,
of New Portland, Me., says
her mother used Ayer's Hair
Vigor that long and always
liked it as a hair dressing.
You can rely upon it for
topping your hair from falling

clean and healthy, and for
restoring color to gray hair.

lllddlnu Deferred,
Owing to a change In the plans of the
Board of Education bids for the proposed
High school will be received up to the hour
of the board's meeting on Monday, July 1.
Contractors who desired to file bids as
serted that the time given before was too
short to figure all of tho details and an
extension of time was urgently requested.
It Is expected that by tho time the new
bids advertised for nro received and opened
tho board will havo money on hand with
which to proceed with the erection of at
least a portion of the structure. Tho de
lay lu construction until August will pre
vent oven a portion of the building being
used for school purposes during the first
Bcmester. However, It is thought that If
an eloven room wing Is decided upon It can
be completed about January 1. On account
of the delay, tho new superintendent of In
struction will bo handicapped somewhat In
making bis arrangement of classes and as
signment of teachers. It also means that a
dozen or more teachers who have applica
tions In and who expect positions will bo
compelled to defer teaching until the end
of tho year. With tho showing which can
be made by tho secretary at the July meet
ing It la thought thnt thero will bo no oppo
sition In regard to tho erection of a wing,
Thero has been somo talk of securing an
order of the court restraining tho board
from letting contracts, but this has died
out to a great extent, nnd when nvallablo
funds aro shown tho board will It la
thought proceed with tho letting of con
tracts without any opposition.
ThiininN Moore Club.
A Thomas Mooro club has been organized
by Irish-American women of South Omnha

After Snlmin Krrprrs.
Although all liquor licenses explro on
May of each year, somo dozen or more
dealers havo not mado any effort to comply
with tho law, In respect to settling with
tho city treasurer. As a general thing tho
council grants a llttlo leeway In this mat
tor, but It has seldom extended over fifteen
days from May 1. This year the time has
been extended on account of tho Increase

An order has been Issued by tho city of
flclals for tho printing of tho rules and
committees of tho council. When tbo body
was reorganized after tho appointment of
Johnston and Vunsant tho committees were
rearranged and a new set of rules adopted
These rules, along with tho committees

Owing to tho now charter a number of
changos In tho rules havo been made and
as many of tho city officials are not as yet

tained at tho grade crossings even If the
courts have to be appealed to. As per u
resolution tho Burlington will be compelled
to maintain lights at L nnd Q streots and

INTERESTING CLOSING DAY EXERCISES
Pupil of the Institute llender n Pro-

tic AnplniiNC Addrens by
President Cnrdncll.
Seventy-flvo students at tho Nebraska
School for tbo Deaf 'yesterday Illustrated
tho triumph of mentality over mlsfortuno
to 300 spectators and auditors In tho an
nual closing exercises of that Institution
A program Illustrating completely the
progress In both departments of the work,
oral or Up rending and sign communlca
tlon, was begun at 2 o'clock In the after
noon In tho chapel, which was crowded to
Its capacity. Many of those present were
parents of tho children, who had come from
various parts of tho stnto to take their
sons and daughters home for the summer,
nnd theso scholars were consequently In the
highest spirits, their faces brimming over
with smiles. A few others live In Omnha
and their educational work also Is now
ended for three months.
No pupils were grnduatod this year, but
during the rendition of eighteen numbers
on tho progtnm fully seventy-flvo of the
175 scholars now enrolled appeared on tho
platform in different capacities. Every
feature of a regular graded school exhibi
tion of this naturo waB represented, there
bolng songs, fancy drills, declamations, es
says, laughable pantomimes, recitations and
clnss drills In geography, crayon work, pri
mary arithmetic nnd Hp readlug.
NIkii l.niiHiinKo Prevnlln.
Most of theso numbers were presented by
tho students In sign work, which was In
terpreted simultaneously to tho audience
In English by a teacher. A few of tho ex
erclscs, however, wero given orally nnd In
theso tho bright-eyed, eager-featured deaf
children who nro Just mastorlng tho null
ments of English bravely spoke tholr lines
In English, which was halting at times
but always perfect In enunciation and in
grammar.
Evory spectator seemed profoundly Im
pressed with what trlnls and efforts both
teachers and pupils had nttnlnod such won
dcrful results as teaching a child who can
not yet hear one sound, not only to spenk
correctly, but to comprehend and answer
the words addressed to him merely by
watching tho Hps of hla Interlocutor. Ap
plause was generous for every number nnd
the children apparently enjoyed It 1m
nrensoly. No group of scholars with good
auditory apparatus ever exhibited on such
an occasion tho smiling faces and oxuber
ant spirits oi mcso neat ones. .Not ono
showed any fright or disinclination to do
his part and the teachers said that tho
lhcldrcn novar sufforcd the embarrassment
common to hearing children In public, for
tho reason that they did not hear tholr own
voices to becomo frightened nt them.
Work on Exhibition.
Yesterday was general open house for tho
deaf school. Tho work of tho pupils was
on exhibition on blackboards and desks in
the dlfforent rooms and their proficiency In
writing, spelling, etc., was astonishing,
Most wondorful of all was tho display of
tho Industrial department, the highest
grado of latho and bench work in wood
being shown.
The program ltsolt opened with a sign
song, "Rock of Ages," by four girls, who
gestured tho words while a vocalist sang
them with piano accompaniment at.pne sldo
of the stage. Perfect time was kept by
the girls, though they heard not a note of
tbo music. An amusing ghost story dla
logue, accompanied by nil tho gruesoracness
and fright, was given by seven boys and
girls of the fourth grade blacked up as
pickaninnies. Thon camo an oral lesson In
geography by four third grade students of
tho Hp department which was tho feature
of tho program. Admirably trained and
coached by their teacher, Miss Cora Jack
three of tho llttlo ones, totally deaf, nt
her oral request drew an accurate map of
Nebraska on exhibition blackboards on tho
stago and then located all tho principal
cities and rivers. Meanwhile the fourth
Hnrry Bctts, who has lenrnod to talk con
slderably, stood out In front and told In
words tho story being portrayed behind
him In chalk.

A sign duot between a boy and a girl
llttlo tots from tho first grade, with vocalls
accoiiipnnlroent, followed and created a hit,
It was entitled "No, Sir," and the lad sang
each verse, asking for n favor or n kiss
while tbo lass responded "No, sir" In tho
retrain. Terry Sceley, a boy whom deaf
ncss kept from success Jn tho Omaha grnd
Bchools, then repeated the whole of "Paul
Rovero'a Ride" with good expression nnd
pronunciation. Then a lesson In lip rend
lng, a story In crayon, depicting tho
troubles of n small boy and his first clgnr
a drill In physical geography, n fancy pi
tin drill, an essay, a negro watermelon
patch pantomime, n recitation, clnss arlth
metlc nnd a hoe drill succeeded each other
after which Superintendent R. ,E, Stewart
gave a brief history of deaf and dumb
pedagogy, saying:

President Ciirdivi'll Tallin.
This speech was Interpreted In signs to
the many deaf present as It proceeded, as
was the address of President Cardwcll of
tho board of trustees, who followed. M
Cardwell said, In part:
Finding my name upon the program to

trustees. I know nothing more stiltahlo
discuss at this time thnn u short review of
our worK or tno past tew years.
Durlnz the session of tho leclslntum o
'90 nnd '97 there was n law enacted which
created a board, whose duty was to holti
look after, more so, the business Interests
oi two oi tno most important institutions
of learning In our stnte, viz: our School
for tM Deaf and our School for the Blind,
Shortly after this law yas passed there
came to me ono day throuah tho mntl n
commission naming mn as one of tho three
members of this board. At that time, being
totally Ignornnt of the existence of such
a low, and practically Ignorant of theso
two Institutions, I would fain have re
turned my commission, thus shirking nil
responsibility of such an undertaking.
Finally through tho Importunity of my
friends nnd considering the fat salary
which would bo mine, I concluded to keep
my commission and serve these Institutions
to tho best of my ability.
And. looking back over these four years
of our relations as a board with these
Institutions, It Is no more than fair to
tnte to you tno extremis pieasuro it nns
Iways afforded us to work with you and

The only wuy you can repay the state
for the many opportunities It has itiven her

We nlsn nniireclatn the Uutlrlni; labor of

EMTORIA, Kan., Juno 11. An epidemic

If necessary, under the nuisance act.

FAIR EXCHANGE
A new back for an old one, how it
is done in Omaha.
Sometimes tho back aches with a dull,
Indescribable feeling, making you weary and
restless; sometimes pain shoots across the
region of the kidneys, and again the loins
nro so lnme to stoop Is agony. No use
plastering or rubbing the back In this con
dltlon. Vou cannot reach the causo. To
exchange a bad back for a now and strong
cr one, follow tho examplo of this Omnha
citizen:
Mr. Ufads Johnson of 1407 Pacific street
employed at the G. A. Hoaglaud Lumber
Co., says: "I have a good deal of heavy
lifting to do nnd It Is necessary to have a
good strong back to do tho vork. My
back commenced to trouble me and finally
became so bad I had to lay off work In
fact I was not working when Doan's Kid
ney Pills cami to my notice. I procured
a box at Kuhn & Co.'a drug storo and had
taken them but a few days when I wns able
to return to my occupation. I have not
bad a symptom of backacho since I took
the treatment and you cAn use my name as
ono who thinks Doan's Kidney Pills the
finest medicine thero Is for the back ant
kidneys."
