EXPANDING THE LUNGs.-Step out
into the purest air you can find !;
stand perfectly erect with the head
and sholders back, and then fixing
the lips as though you were going to
whistle, draw the air through the
nostrils into the lungs When the
chest is about full raise the arms,
keeping them extended, with the
palms oc the hands down, as you
suck in the air, SO as to bring
them over the head, just as the lungs
are quite full. Then drop the thumbs
inward, and after gently forcing the
arms backwards and the chest open,
reserve the process by which you
draw your breath, till the lungs are
entirely empty. This process should
be repeated three or four times a
day. 1t is impossible to describe to
one who has never tried it, the gIori-
Gus sense of vigor which follows the
exercise. 1t is the best expectorant
in the world We know a gentleman
the measure of whose chest has been
increased some three inches during
as many months.

New Public School Buildings to be
Erected at Lancaster-Bigger than
Ever-Stormed but not Whipt

The day after the recent great
storm which made heap of ruins Of
the Lancaster public school build

was seen in every face. No one ven
tured to ask, what shall be done
| The assessor said, there is near
half million tax basis in Lancas

plain we could build, even upon q
broader gauge, ard finer and room
Ter.
So school meeting was called
and held, at which it was resolved
unanimously to erect even finer and
better buildings than before-the
stone masonry to go up this fall, the
brick walls and finishing to be added
early in the spring and summer of
1869
By resolution of the com mittec,
plans were adopted for two build
ings, each 40 by 80 feet, with liga-
ture between for stairways and
clothes rooms. Above is to be a
lecture hall covering an entire floor,
the other floors to be laid off for six
school rooms, each 25 by 81 feet,
besides apartments for incidental
use. The same will probably be
adopted by the adjourned meeting of
citizens to be held on Thursday
evening Of next week.

Our neighbor, F. NJ. Durand, his
health long upon IL declining plane,
two or three years ago started por-
table mercantile car in view of chang
ing his health and business to an up
ward grade. He has not since switch
ed off the forward track, and is roll
ing into port, full sail, with two,tor>
ty health and income
Mr., Durand is we'll known as a re-
sponsible and conscientious man,
who believes that peddling goods may
be followed perseveringIy without
any violation Of the moral code.
MIR. Durand's method is. 10 travel
regular routes and arrange his visits
in regular round periods OF about eight
weeks. His regular patrons are up
on travel routes and in villages in the
north, west, and south parts of
Grant County, especially including
Fennimore, Mt. Hope, Melville, Patch
Grove, Glen Haven, Bloomington,
Cassville, Beetown and Potosi. He
deals in cloths; ladies wares and
things generally OF fine and best quail
ity only, and sells at profits of which
he is not fearful of being reminded
on account Of dearness.
He has added the business Of Life
Insurance to the rotary merchandis
ing, and taken an agency for that old
and responsible institution the Con-
neetIcut Life Insurance Company, than
which there is no,better in the world.
We contribute this notice for the
benefit of one whose acts and busi>
ness will ever be credit to himself
and friends.

The Fourth at British Hollow and Pc
tosi.

The Fourth was celebrated in be
coming manner, the principal feature
however being the Good Templars
Picnic Excursion. The party COM
prised the members of British Hollow
and Potosi hodges, together with q
goodly number ofinvited guests, who
assembled at the Landing, and at ten
o'clock A. NJ. embarked on the
splendid New Ferry Steamer of
Specht & Co, which had been taste
fully and most appropriately decora~
ted with green boughs arranged to
make delightful shade, and gaily
decked with flags and streamers. All
being on board the steamer was head
ed down stream, and landed the par
ty some four miles below on the Iowa
side, near beautiful grove, where
after the usual Reading, Grafton, mu-
sic, toasts, cannon &c, the party par.
took OF splendid repast, which was
spiced ar d.enriched by theimprolnptu
speeches, toasts, and happy things
said. The afternoon was passed
very pleasantly in witnessing the
Match Game of Base Ball Gin the
shade). After which came the Regat-
ia Prize-Ice Cream for the crew,
which was won by Mr.. Alderson's
boat, by two lengths, this gentleman
being the proprietor of the celebrated
Albany Lead, just now paying "big."
The fishing prize was taken by Mr..
Allison of Rockville, who had the
good fortune to discover in the river,
fishing rod floating to the end of
the line was hooked an enormous cat
fish. The Swimming Match came off
at 8 2. NJ. Prize taken by Chas.
Bennett of British Hollow, who, with
a citizen of Lancaster, had joined the
party at late hour, by water, having
propelled their. 'duds" on plank be-
fore them the whole distance Mr.. B.
swan five miles in the short space of
thirty five minutes-the last half mile
up stream. At 5 30 P. NJ. the steam
er arrived to take the party, now
thoroughly pleasure worn, up to the
large Hall of Mrs Specht's, where
those inclined, "tripped the light FAM
tastic toe" until late hour, when
the steamer again carried them safe>
ly over the "Father Of Waters" now
beautiful by moonlight, clear as day.
The appearance of the river and
the cool evening breeze conspired to
raise the happytied spirits of the
whole company, and oil seemed to
think that better time could not
have been passed. Had we space and
time, we might mention the Grafton
of L. F. Kinney, the patriotic songs
by the choir of Prof Jackson and the
beautiful toasts by prominent mems
bers Of the company, for which we re
greet having no room. The reading
of the Amnesty Proclamation of our
kind hearted President was omitted as
there were none among the party to
whom it applied.
While all this was transporting on
the river, the Sabbath Schools of Brit.
ish Hollow united and formed in
grand procession, with banners and
flags, and marched through the prin-
cipal streets, singing their beautiful
hymns and songs in their usual style,
to the grove which had been neatly
arranged for the Picnic, and after
speeches and feast of good things
generally, the company dispersed to
enjoy themselves, each after his own
manner. Taken as whole it was a
day long to be remembered.

compare with the storm at Lancaster
the week before. The only damage
done was by lightning. Mr.. Peppers

no one was hurt. Shade trees blown
down.
The appeal also notices the drown.
ing of a son of Geo. Fl. Thomas, aged
7 or years. He and other little
boys were out bathing in shallow
water, when he was seen to sink.
J. Buttons room was entered the
other evening and $40 taken from bis

DR.. Barth, the renowned Heidel-
berg doctor, lately noticed in the

therefore, be great rush at Bosco

The weather is remarkably warm,

phenomenon by which the weather
is to be judged aforehand indicating
continuous heat for considerable

Unless the excessive heat should
rust the wheat, that crop will be as
large rs ever known and corn, oats,
potatoes and other crops never prom>
iscd more largely.
Prices are slightly receding be-
fore the great prospects.
