Winter Session having closed w,th halt It's
intended Term.

short tine, suspended by the illness OF Miss
Jessie Melville, most promising pup
whom her devoted teacher and aunt warch-
ed by night and BY day. durrnI her SEX
ness A!Ier HI dsaih OF het lovely niece,
NI,s Melville both needed and desired. for
a tine, rrlirt from the ahorS of lhe school
room, and the Trustees IN Difference To cons
siieraluns 50 well worthg Of regard adopt
ed the plan already stated.
The change will, we trust, give entire
satisfaction InaSmuch as the Summer Ses~
sion will thereby commence at the most
appropriate season OF the year.
The past SESSION was, during its contin-
uance, emiueu,lv prosperous, both as re-
yards the number OF pupils and their rapid
improvement. a iu,l school being an'Ici>
paied next session, the necessary assistant
teachers will be- provided. II Is important
to facilitate The formation OF classes, that
pupils commence with the session.
The Trustees are much gra,iGed al the
manifestation that parents properly apple
ciare the superior advantages here afforded
for the education OF iher daughters.
Boarding NAV be obtained on reasonable
terms IN several families, and one cnminO-
dious aud convenient ling IS being fitted
up expressly for the purpose.

'ENHE Wild Cherry and Satsaparl''a'
z which are the basis of this Medicine,
have long been celebrated in Consumption,
Scrolula, Diseases OF the Skin, Coughs
Splitting of Blood, Asthma, SC. The Right
Rev. w. r. Nottingham, Bishop OF the
Protestant Episcopal Church in Mary land
has authorized US TO say, he has used IT IN
his own person with decided benefit; and
many of our medical friends do not hesI'a'e
to recommend it in rhcr practice. See DIR.
Samuel Harper's letter 10 us IN The Pampn"

Agent. The Boonsborough Odd Fe
o. Washington county, Md, OF Janua'!
Goth, 1913, says:
"When an article has afforded relief to
so many persons rs DR.. Martins Com
pound Syrup of Wild Cherry has done,
we feel bound to make it known. There
never was an article in this country that
has afforded relief and gave more sallslac-
t,on than this. In the neighborhood Ct
Brownsville, in Ibis county, 1t has aitrc'~
ed several important cures, and from our
own certain knowledge o! II, we pronounce
it unequaied fer the cure Of Coughs, Colds,
and diseases OF ihls kind"

On the whole, regard the child as one Of
the wonders of the age. have never seen
one SO young take such an interest in music,
and ! have never heard of one at that age,
who could perform such wonders on the
drum, What this early development of ge-
MUS will lead to, am sureI cannot tell. If
he lives, and his musical powers keep pace

OF it, would be developed at the expense of
his body. TO speak as an engineer, / should
